    In an ideal world, they'd have just released a PS5 patch for the already perfectly serviceable remastered version.

    Seems kinda redundant for PS5 alright. Hope it does well on PC though.

    I was going to say that surely even modern Sony wouldn’t be arrogant enough to charge full retail price for it.

    But apparently they are arrogant enough to charge full retail price for it.

    Should follow @insider_wtf on Twitter if looking for interesting leaks.

    He leaked entire SoP(glad I didn't see this) and Overdose/LoUR date before anyone else.

    The PS4 version already ran at 60fps so there wasn't anything to patch. This is a lot more than a texture bump and seems more akin to the asset and engine swapped PS5 version of Demon Souls which also sold for full price. I assume it's mainly targeted at future fans of the HBO show and PC gamers but it will surely sell well with existing fans too.

    Looks good to me though I'd like to see some gameplay.

    A patch with full 4K / 60 fps support to take advantage the PS5 would be a nice bonus and upgrade over PS4 Pro.

    Demon’s Souls remake was still overpriced, but at least it was for a game whose original version was technically wonky and no longer playable on modern hardware. This… we already have an excellent modern version that runs on PS5 and still looks pretty damn great for a ten year old game. €80 for a glorified polish job is peak Sony hubris, although at least getting a PC version is a positive.

    Maybe it was to prevent the PC dipsticks from claiming the best version of a Sony owned game came out on PC (rather than the same version but modded/upgraded by the PC community). But did anyone really expect it to be discounted? I'm a bit of a Sony fanboy, but I still expect all their first party games, remakes or not, to be full price. It's why I don't buy them...

    I don't really think the Demon's Souls comparison really works. I only played a wee bit of the PS3 version and none of the PS5 version, but just looking at them you can tell the PS5 version is a remake, even from a screenshot. From what that trailer shows, it looks identical to the PS3/PS4 version and I think should've been at PS4 prices at most.

    Definitely looks way better but I personally wouldn't pay full price, a lot of games are nearly half price within 12 months so no harm waiting.

    Wasn't expecting a new Alien game, shame it's some sort of top down style.

    I have my eye on Callisto Project, Fort Solis and Routine (PC). Good year for gaming. New Modern Warfare looks decent enough, didn't enjoy the 2019 though.

    Callisto looked pretty good but think there were some animations missing when changing from shooting to melee. Surely be addressed in the final game.

    GoW Ragnarok launching Nov 2022 according to Jason Schreier.

    Would be surprised in GoW makes November. Final Fantasy 7 25th anniversary broadcast next week. Surely a Remake Part 2 announcement?

    I wouldn't be surprised at all if GOW is released in November. They made the smart move to not give a release window other than 2022, have only released one trailer so far (which was well received and no complaints about graphics meaning they'd have to delay to fix them).

    At the end of GOW3, Kratos release hope into the world. I have hope!

    Anyone getting The Quarry? I really liked Until Dawn. I was going to wait for it to go on sale as I'm not in a rush to buy anything at the moment but I see it's €60 and not €75 so I'm thinking about picking it up in a few days.

    GoW is the only Sony exclusive I've got my eye on for the rest of the year.

    Seem to remember someone from the developer stating recently the game is still on course for 2022.

    I reluctantly paid €80 for GT7 so I could play with a mate at launch. I've enjoyed the racing but the game has monetisation problems,which leaves a bit of bad taste after paying €80. Perfect example of a good game being diminished by MTs

    Kinda makes me wanna wait for GoW sale but that could be ages after launch.

    Maybe PC game prices have spoiled me but €80 just feels like too much.

    Interesting, Smyth's did have it for 60 but now it's sold out. It had 3 listed for Fonthill when I checked before they opened that morning...

    I don't mind paying €80 for a game or 2 a year that I'm almost certain I'm going to enjoy and get plenty of hours out of without paying a cent extra - GoW and Elden Ring being the 2 this year for me. €80 for a game with a heap of microtransations is taking the piss though.

    Pictures of the controller keep the classic PlayStation 5 style, but show a few key differences. One of the biggest changes is buttons under the analog sticks, which allow you to completely remove the analog sticks; which Sony refers to as "removable stick units".


    Another feature includes the trigger stops at the back of the controller, in addition to flappy paddles/buttons that have become increasingly popular over the years with players turning to companies such as SCUF Gaming and NACON for such controllers.


    The prototype also features grips to help hold the controller, which also seems to be removable.
