Game announcements... maybe an expansion of PS+ Collection

Expansion would be cool.

Really hoping we get a glimpse of God of War Ragnarok. Some more news on FFXVI would be good too.

 

[b82REZ]

I've just moved house and have no Internet and my 4g is iffy in the new house. I hope I can watch this tonight.

I imagine we'll have something on GoW, maybe not gameplay though. Maybe a bit more Horizon or a hint at Guerrilla new IP.

No doubt there will be some surprise in there.

With the diamond in the PlayStation showcase announcement tweet, there'll probably be an announcement of a PS+ Diamond service with the anime (Crunchyroll/Funimation) and PS Now subscriptions included. No idea how much it'd cost... the anime isn't something that interests me but is something @Solius would love.

 

[esmufc07]

No doubt there will be some surprise in there.

Metal Gear Solid Remake? Though @Solius hates remakes because he’s a terrible human.

Though maybe we will see the rumoured The Last of Us remake.

Naughty Dog have been working on a standalone multiplayer game do maybe that too.

MGS remake wouldn’t be the worst. The controls are horrendous on MGS2.

 

[MiceOnMeth]

Some Hogwarts Legacy gameplay would be nice!

 

[ha_rooney]

God of War gameplay would be great. Maybe a Naughty Dog announcement? I think they’ll announce Spider-Man 2.

Can you recommend a PS5 game that showcases the platform nicely - fully utilising the dual sense, etc - that is not astro ' s playroom or demon souls?

Ratchet and Clank

 

[amolbhatia50k]

They should just apologise for the shambles that has been PS plus this past 7-8 months.

 

[The Firestarter]

Returnal/Ratchet

Ratchet and Clank

cheers

 

[Vidyoyo]

They should seek reparation for the calamity that has been PS Plus for roughly half an annum.

 

[Tiber]

Ratchet and Clank

wonderful game. I 100% completed it and my Mrs is currently really enjoying her playthrough.

I think its been pretty good this year

obviously cant please everyone every month but I have played a good few

Yup it was good alright. and as my tag suggests I did also platinum it

Stretching it.

February: Destruction Allstars, Control Ultimate Edition & Concrete Genie
March: Maquette, Final Fantasy VII Remake, Remnant from the Ashes & Farpoint VR
April: Oddworld Soulstorm, Days Gone & Zombie Armie 4: Dead War
May: Wreckfest: Drive Hard, Die Last, Battlefield V & Stranded Deep
June: Operation Tango, Star Wars: Squadrons & Virtua Fighter 5: Ultimate Showdown
July: A Plague Tale: Innocence, Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 & WWE 2K Battlegrounds
August: Hunter's Arena: Legends, Plants vs Zombies: Battle for Neighborville & Tennis World Tour 2
September: Overcooked: All you Can Eat, Hitman 2 and Predator Hunting Grounds

I'd say five (May onwards) for those who prefer single player games. Even though I hated Control, already had FFVIIR and played Days Gone through the PS+ Collection, they can't really go down as shambolic months. Plague Tale was the only game I've played in those five months and shame the PS4 players couldn't play it.

The Play At Home games made up for the lull though I think with R&C, HZD and others available. I just hope that with the studios having a bigger focus on multiplayer games, that they'll include more single player games on PS+ in future again.

 

[Tiber]

I pay about £2 per month for PlayStation Plus. Hard to see why people feel hard done by

I went through and bolded those I played and actually enjoyed. Some of them are good games (Days Gone, Hitman 2) but I'd already played them at the point they came on PS Plus.

Yup, 5 months of nothing for me as a single player gamer since A Plague Tale was PS5 only, and I don't like Hitman much at all. 7-8 was stretching it as I really really enjoyed Days Gone. Still, 5 months is nearly half a year of stuff like CODa and Overcooked. Cmon Sony!

 

[BusbyMalone]

Surely Naughty Dog has to show something of Factions. I hope so, anyway.

I would love to see a Metal Gear Solid Remake. I also think Sony could announce the acquisition of Blue Point

Gameplay and maybe a release date for Gran Turismo 7

Some Hogwarts stuff. I'm interested in seeing more of that game

Maybe Spider-Man 2. Not sure about that one, though.

And then probably some boring stuff like Call of Duty and Deathloop, maybe.

They announced that acquisition months a go.

 

[BusbyMalone]

Confirmation I mean. It was a leak, wasn't it?

 

[b82REZ]

Confirmation I mean. It was a leak, wasn't it?

No, official announcement with the Insomniac deal.

 

[Balljy]

No, official announcement with the Insomniac deal.

The official word is that the Bluepoint logo was "a mistake" in that announcement still I think. Bluepoint have made a point of adding "fully independent" to its Twitter profile too. I'm pretty sure nothing has been announced yet.

 

[BusbyMalone]

No, official announcement with the Insomniac deal.

I don't think that's the case. When Sony announced Housemarque they accidentally released an image of Blue Point as well, but it was deleted and Blue Point is still independent at this point. Nothing offical. I think that could change later

In that case then maybe you're right and they get officially announced tonight.

Now you mention it I do recall some back peddling after the Housemarque and Insomniac announcements.

Still I'd rather see gameplay than a studio acquisition announcement.

 

[RedDevilRoshi]

Hoping we get at least some of the following:

A gameplay trailer of GOW: Ragnarock

Some gameplay of Hogwarts Legacy

Some more gameplay of Horizon: Forbidden West

An expansion of free games to download from PS+ collection

Plus some new game announcements releasing later this year/next year

That would be nice. When they first announced the PS+ Collection I thought they would update it now and then. Not very regular or anything like that, but a game now and then. It's a shame they haven't.

I do like the PS+ collection though. That was a good move by Sony.

 

[Alock1]

Horizon, God of War, TLOU2 Factions, Spiderman 2, Ratchet/Returnal DLC

Hogwarts, Deathloop, Elden Ring, COD, Destiny from 3rd parties

Maybe a teaser for Infamous

And last new games to PS+ Collection or maybe even a slight change in strategy

Lots to pack into 40 minutes!

 

[esmufc07]

Hogwarts looks amazing but I’d be surprised if we saw any of it tonight.

FFVII Remake Part 2 would be amazing, but I won’t hold my breath.

 

[Alock1]

Starfield

This thread is to discuss the PlayStation 5 and its games only. Go to the Xbox Series X thread if you wish to discuss that console, and if you wish to compare the two/console war, go to the PS5 vs Xbox Series X thread.

It was indeed a good move and I too thought they would add to it throughout the year but that hasn’t been the case. Don’t know if it was just to celebrate the PS5’s release?

The games they have been releasing on a monthly basis for the last couple of months now are nothing to shout about.

To make the new console more attractive surely. It's a brilliant collection but sadly I've played nearly all of it. Oh, and I don't have a PS5, that's probably the sadder bit.

Yeah, I think it was just a consumer-friendly move. Buy this new console and immediately have this great selection of games. Although, if you're a PlayStation fan you've probably played many of them. But there were some I never played and thanks to that I had the opportunity to.

PS Plus in general is a little stale. Hopefully, they'll announce something later.

 

[caid]

I pay about £2 per month for PlayStation Plus. Hard to see why people feel hard done by

I pay nothing on pc for a more stable, reliable multiplayer gaming and get more free games from epic game store.
Just feels like being gouged for a really mediocre service

 

[Vidyoyo]

For obvious reasons I haven't really been following the news but I'd be very happy with all of the following:

- A remake of MGS1
- A reboot of Syphon Filter
- News about Gran Turismo, with a release date sometime this decade
- A sequel to Uncharted featuring his daughter as the lead
- News about GoT 2
- A reboot of Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver
- Another comic-book game in the vein of Spider-man but different
- A remake of Killzone 2
- DLC for Ratchet and Clank
- A reboot of Jak and Daxter
- A remake of R4: Ridge Racer Type 4

Jak and Dexter was a great game, never played the sequels though. Wouldn’t mind a return of those.

Whilst we’re on the topic of remakes and such, I’d love them to redo Vagrant Story.
