Yeah I am thinking to see if I can flog my ps4 pro and if I get a decent enough price I may keep the ps5 as it will be a bit paid off but I am sorely tempted to sell it and get a xbox series x.

Are there any other killer exclusives? I heard GT7 is a bit of a bust with the massive mtx and grind changes, I guess I could try spiderman again or Horizon 2 but I wasnt that enamoured with Horizon 1. Kinda wish they had got their finger out with another Infamous.

A good start to the new PlayStation Plus deal: I’ve been charged twice for my upgrade :roll_eyes:

I was ready for Sucker Punch to make another Infamous, too.

Then I played Ghost of Tsushima.

Play it. It’s by far the greatest thing they’ve ever made.

If you’re looking for other PS titles, I’d also recommend Final Fantasy 7 Remake.

Seems expensive, I mean, gamepass is good value, that’s Ā£10.99 I think and has everything Xbox has to offer as far as I know.

Shame PlayStation had to up their prices so much, fingers crossed I get a decent 50% off the premium package at some point before November

I started off this game on ps plus. Liking it so far but not got as far as I would like. Love the streaming on the new ps plus service as means you can easily try a game without downloading 100gb+!

Not tried streaming, but ghost is so good. So much to do and to explore.

It’s decent. The latency feels pretty low and picture quality good (although tv only 1080p anyway)

Mines 4K, by tbf I wouldn’t notice the major difference :sweat_smile: I’ve a ps5 too.

I didn’t see.

Still slowly playing Ghost of Tsushima and I love it. Such a chill game. One of the best graphically enhanced games I’ve ever played.

I just got the platinum trophy for Ghost of Tsushima last night. It’s not often I put in the effort to get the platinum but that game got me – plus it’s a relatively easy platinum.

I’ve never platinum anything. Soon as I’ve done the story that’s it :neutral_face::joy:

I was very close to Platinum on Ghost of Tsushima when I completed the game after it first came out. Something like 90% of the way there. Then they dropped the multiplayer and DLC, and it reduced my completion down to 79% and that annoyed me. I beat Iki Island and enjoyed it, but the multiplayer stuff is not my bag. So I doubt I’ll platinum it.

I don’t think I’ve ever platinumed anything, but that was probably the closest I’ve got. Although, if I do another Shenmue 1 & 2 playthrough I could do it. If trophies were a thing when those games originally came out on the Dreamcast then I would have had them.

Yakuza 0 I think I got pretty close to platinum, but I don’t think I’ll ever get the Mahjong ones as I don’t really understand how to play Mahjong well enough. Whenever there’s been a storyline related part involving Mahjong in RGG games I’ve just fumbled my way through it until I can win a game by pure luck.

What upcoming games are y’all hyped for?

I just beat FF7 Crisis Core for the first time on the PSP. And now there’s a remake coming out lol. So i’ll probably play it again, especially since they’re gonna have to change the ending since Zack is now alive in FF7R.

FF7 Rebirth is late next year I think so still a while off.

Defo hyped for The Last of Us Part 1 remake. Spider Man 2. Yakuza 8 (or Like A Dragon Part II, or whatever it ends up being called)

And Breath Of The Wild 2!

Cannot wait for FF7Rebirth! Such a fan of FF7 ever since I was young, beat it so many times. The remake I wasn’t sure if at first but the more I got into it the more I enjoyed it. Wasn’t a fan of the DLC with Yuffie though.

Never played Crisis Core surprisingly, probs as I never had a PSP.

I wasn’t sure on BOTW - got up to the end castle to fight but other half beat me to it and told me what happened so I gave up :joy: the breaking weapons were enough to push my limits tbf, even after getting you know what from the forest.

FF16 is probably going to be my next big purchase whenever that comes out, March maybe?

Last of Us was great through 1 and 2, is the LOU1 a remaster (just graphics) or a remake (new story)?

The PS5 remake of Crisis Core will be out this year. I’d highly recommend playing it. Zack’s relationships to Cloud, Sephiroth, Aerith and Tifa add a lot more dimension to FF7 compared to what was briefly shown in the original game, and playing through the iconic Nibelheim and Shinra Manor scene is really special.

Plus, the main antagonist - Genesis Rhapsodos - I believe will play a part in Rebirth. And there’s important context around Jenova.

TLoU Part 1 is essentially the original game but using the modernised engine from Part 2.
