You can avoid a lot of combat if you want - it still has that MGS DNA in it. And while the combat isn't great, what is there is tremendous fun. In my bald opinion, anyway
Can't believe people think the combat in Ghost isn't great.
Easily the best part of the game.

Who said that? It’s the storytelling/repetitive missions that let it down.
Finally got one today, aunt have time till the late tonight to play it, only thing that puzzles me is why do they have an angle on the handles of the controller.
I've completely misunderstood @Mr Pigeon. Thought he was on about Ghost, not Death Stranding. Ignore me.
Didn’t realise there was the Serious Sam collection available on PSN. Used to love those games, anyone got them? Any good on ps5?

That isn't the case with Horizon Forbidden West. In fact, there seems to be no current upgrade path at all planned for the game. Instead, Sony is suggesting you make that decision up front. You'll still have the $60 version for PS4 and $70 version for PS5 to choose from, but you won't be able to pay the $10 upgrade fee to make the jump after the fact. Instead, Sony says that they only way to get a version of that game that works across both consoles, you'll need to purchase one of the game's more premium editions, starting at the $80 Digital Deluxe Edition.
Such a dick move from Sony. They're going to lose a lot of faith from people if they keep this shit up. It's even more mental when you consider how many people can't get their hands on a ps5 right now and will have no choice but to play it on ps4.

So even the PS5 version at £70 wouldn't give you the PS4 version whilst you wait? That feels like the minimum they should offer.
I can see them reversing that decision.
Yeah I’ve not been impressed at all with how they’ve gone about stuff like this - they really ought to be making it simpler and fairer for consumers, especially when they’re charging £70 for a game.
Nope it appears not, only the collector's edition and above seems to cover both versions. I think they'll have to. Shortages are likely to continue well into 2022 and this could be really, really bad press for them. Whatever about the price increase for next gen games (which I think is shitty enough for games that are still on current gen!), this is just pure shithousery.
I feel like unless they get hit in the pocket, they'll keep trying. Thing is, (seems like) the majority just bend over for this stuff...
They reversed a similar decision on Spiderman right? Or have I imagined that?
Idiotic move not to allow you to even have the option to upgrade it. Even more so when Jim Ryan was saying not so long back about not to worry about the upgrade path, as they're giving PS4 users an upgrade path to get PS5 versions for free.
Wouldnt surprise me if they change course here, but they do some stupid moves sometimes.

Ratchet and Clank has gone down in price but it's still around £60. Just can't justify that for a game I'm not desperate to play.
Might get it once it reaches £25-30.

Yeah I finished it the other day. It's good but a one play and done type. I'll probably trade mine in actually.
It's fecking amazing. One game I didn't mind paying full price for, but it is steep. I would say it's well worth it at around £45
I've downloaded Apex Legends to see what that's like. Can't afford anything right now

I predict I'll be shit at first, then get decent at it and enjoy it. Then one day I'll be chucked into a lobby where you get killed within 2 seconds and thus the game cycle is complete.
Bojan messaged me the other day to say that Elvis was a freak who is on Apex all the time, religiously at 8pm every night, and Bojan has made it part of his routine to check if Elvis is online and playing Apex at 8

Who's Bojan?
I haven’t played much over the last few weeks tbf.
I've also noticed Elvis always on it
Former Barcelona and Stoke player.
Siding with Bojan, a sad day.I've also noticed Elvis always on it
I'm surprised he owns a Playstation.
Finally decided to get one, out of boredom I guess. So, first impressions:
- the overall design is nice, but the build quality / finish seems a bit lacking. That goes both for the unit and the controller. They might have made them a little more "premium" but you need to cut costs somewhere I guess.
- I found odd that you need to connect the controller via USB first , in order to pair it.
- The pulse 3d headset requires a separate dongle even for use with the PS itself. They might have added that functionality in the unit, since it is an official ps accessory.
- the operation of the controller is fantastic, really impressive with all the feedbacks and trigger tensions.
And Stoke !
You forgot Roma
Not only a dick move, it's goes against what they explicitly said last year:
"Sony Explicitly Said A PS5 ‘Horizon Forbidden West’ Upgrade Would Be Free" https://www.forbes.com/sites/paulta...n-west-upgrade-would-be-free/?sh=60c9ab7d9306
They're going to have to back down over this surely.
Yep, and they have thankfully, silly decision from Sony but at least they’ve listened.
Was always going to happen but it's cost them a lot of good faith.
A bit confusing though, if it's a free upgrade from the PS4 version, why purchase the PS5 version at all, unless they'll now be the same price?

I think that second point is the reason why they initially made that decision.
Apparently going forward it will always be a tenner to upgrade to full ps5 version which makes sense if the game is a tenner cheaper.
Good. Thought they would reverse it.
Shame other games will still have a £10 upgrade path but much better than being locked out or forced to buy 2 copies (if you don't plan up front) or a premium edition.

I often wonder if they do shit like this just to say "see, we do listen to our fans". Because to be so quick to change your mind on this (which is obviously a great thing!) begs the question why the hell do it in the first place, if you're not going to stick with it when you receive any sort of pushback. Anyway, nice to see it's going to be free and I don't think the £10 upgrade for future titles is that bad.
More that Sony provably live in their own little bubble where they think fans are so loyal that they will lap this shit up.
Yeah, that's once or twice this year now they've backtracked on things they said. Again, that's obviously great, but some of them (like this one) you just think why? To be fair, they're not the only company to try and push things and get away with it. Offering it for free, then making it clear that future titles will be met with a £10 upgrade charge I think is fair.
