Hopefully gonna finish the behemoth that is Persona 5 Royal. The last palace feels really long
Finished off The Forgotten City last night (shout out to Bopp for being the reason I was up late 2 nights in a row ;)
Great game, the writing is phenomenal and the situation you're put in actually forces you to think about the consequences of what you say to someone, lest you accidentally mess up. Sure it has some jank but it was made by a really small team so all things considered it turned out extremely well and I enjoyed my time with it.
I was planning on copying Bopp and moving onto Monster Boy next but with Star Wars looming over me next week I think I'll have to finish off a couple of the bigger games I have installed just so I can delete them for space! Probably finish off the last 2 DLC trophies for ghostwire and then mop up the FF7R Intermission trophies.

Final Fantasy VI, Forspoken, Burning Shores, Wonder Boy aka way too many games lol
I hope I can finish off Mass Effect 2. There is still the Arrival DLC left.
I also loved Forgotten City -- a +1 recommendation for anyone on the fence.
Well Im basically at the point of no return for Mass Effect 2, done everything else up to that point, so I'll be finishing that game for sure.
More SFVI no doubt, booted the demo for some CPU Vs stuff and quickly remember why I loved the beta so much, its going to be amazing.
Plus RE4 REmake, MH Rise and maybe start Tchia as well. So much to play!
A great post, I agree with most of it. What's interesting is that Naughty Dog are likely to be first out of the gate on their live service titles and with the studio's pedigree, plus the overall IP strength, I wouldn't be surprised if that becomes the multiplayer hit that lands in a big way. It's certainly a lot to follow for new studios and teams developing original IP in a crowded FPS market.
Despite that, sometimes having established IP can be a hindrance. Look at what happened with Battlefield, where the developers (some of which are on this forum) delivered a unique vision for a Battlefield that a lot of core fans didn't enjoy (me included). Developers work on these projects for many years and it's a hard ask to expect them to churn out incredibly similar products creatively. So sometimes these creative minds need to stretch their wings and do something different, which on existing IP can cause huge amounts of negativity and ultimately financial loss for publishers. I understand why the mental health of developers and pressure to crunch is as bad as it is.
On your final point about perception, that's where I really don't agree. The PS3 era was my most plugged in generation for multiplayer because of my age and life commitments, as well as the number of friends I had who'd actively play those types of games. It's an incredibly crowded space and the likes of Killzone and Resistance just weren't at the standard to succeed. If you only owned a PS3 then yes, Killzone 2 was great. If you owned a 360 then why would you play Killzone 2 over Halo 3? And that's not factoring in the general strength of titles like Modern Warfare, Team Fortress 2, Counter Strike, Gears of War. There were just so many excellent, industry changing PVP titles and the stuff Sony released was interesting, quirky, but never mainstream for a reason. My two favourite attempts were Warhawk and Socom Confrontation, the former genuinely unique and used the controller well, the latter just a solid attempt at reviving some of the Socom 2 magic. It was never as good, but it hit the nostalgia in my brain well enough to keep me playing.
I thought they were after the Kena guys, I'm surprised by this latest acquisition.
He probably doesn't expect more news today.
Yesterday was already filled with news
I could be imagining things but I can't shake the feeling that Final Fantasy's classic theme is low key playing during the intro of YoshiP before the show begins.

Prelude? Yep, that is 100% what is playing :D
Sorry was real busy yesterday and couldn't get back to this. I agree it is not a total gamble at all, obviously there are relations and check ins on these things.
However you're still talking about brand new studios who have never released something and their games are live service, something Sony has not really been involved or had a great track record in so far. For the relatively small investment and potential benefits of just one of these pulling off, it'll be worth it but if I was working at one of these studios, I just think I'd be feeling the pressure as 1-2 duds and I don't think they'll be sticking around too long in that space unfortunately.
Heyhey, part of the blame goes to Shairi :p
Good to hear that you enjoyed it. :)
Definitely one of my favs this year!
They've already shown trailers. I feel like some people just want movie level of spoiling everything trailers.
I mean, if the game is for Fall release, we probably going to see more of it soon.
IDK why studios engage with people like this.
Clearly 0 critical thinking, concern trolling, or something in between.
The marketing team at PlayStation needs a huge rise. Unseen heroes
LolRandom HelloFresh ad with a PS5 in the background for some reason lmao
I'm waiting for the day I start buying shampo, and comes with a add on the label for PS Plus
Random HelloFresh ad with a PS5 in the background for some reason lmao
Sony to acquire Hello Fresh; every food box contains one random PS5 game.
Finally going to finish Forbidden West to play Burning Shores.
Glad I did it this way because I have to re-learn most of the controls, lol.
But...I was not expecting to get the flying mount and basically uncover all undiscovered areas of the map. I spent most of last night looking for undiscovered camp fires.
Around 2 hours into the Burning Shores expansion, and it is excellent. It gives the sense of a blockbuster film, and it's by far the best thing I've seen on console yet, and I was catching up to some side FW content for the past week ahead of the expansion to prepare, so I had a visual point of reference.
It really feels like the marketing team have so much budget, they're starting to throw dart on what thing they can slap PS5 marketing at, lmao
Agree. At a glance you cant tell if its concern trolling or actual fans. Then fanboyism for or against gets so extreme....
This is another reason why I'm glad I waited.
Seems like it.
Yeah i think we could see their games this year
Honestly it's a good idea, without spoiling the expansion doesn't give you much time to refamiliarize yourself with combat again, so you should be prepared.
yup I had pegged for a reveal this year even before this acquisition
Nice.
So is there anything on this project like art or anything?
