Sony PoorStation 5

[baseline bum]

Ugh first two games in the Playstation showcase are both live service crap

[baseline bum]

Another bland fps for game #3 in this showcase

[baseline bum]

Ten minutes in and this showcase sucks with a capital S so far

[baseline bum]

Finally the fifth game Phantom Blade 0 looked pretty good

[baseline bum]

Man this is an XBox style presentation with a grab bag of crap trailers back to back unlike what Sony used to do at E3 with their long form live gameplay segments from two or three of their strongest games. ElNono man, tell Playstation to go back to that style they used back when their events would actually get you excited about their new .

2/3 through the show and a little underwhelming so far. AssCreed and Street Fighter look meh, MGS Snake Eater Remake could be pretty good and I was already sold on FFXVI.

[baseline bum]

, forgot about PSVR 2. So the last quarter of the show is going to be VR crap

[Reck]

I thought it was a very solid presentation. October is going to be stacked.

Only thing really interesting I saw outside of FFXVI and Spiderman 2, both of which I'm already sold on, was the MGS3 remake, which they showed no gameplay for so it's probably years off. I suppose I'm somewhat interested in Granblue Fantasy Relink too, but that was a pretty disappointing trailer for it. But no Stellar Blade, no Like a Dragon Gaiden, no Like a Dragon 8, and the only game I didn't know about that looked like it could be pretty good was Phantom Blade 0.

I'm on the record that I hate these youtubes. If they don't want to go back to E3, I'd like them to at least do a yearly PlayStation Experience expo, where they'll showcase all this plus give you the ability do hands-on with some of the les.

God the Playstation Portal looks like . Costs $200 but they cheaped out on the screen using LCD instead of OLED, no bluetooth so you have to either use wired headphones or buy proprietary Sony Link headphones to use with it, and it only gets 3-4 hours of battery life. What a joke. Who the would buy one of these pieces of crap?

I have this and a movie about Gran Turismo head to head for the worst ideas coming out of there this year... PSVR2 a distant 3rd only because the hardware is top notch...

Maybe if they included a subscription to CzechVR in PS Plus the PSVR2 could be worth picking up.

I have my doubts.

As much as I like this game I have a feeling whatever DLC they make will be with you following and playing as Atreus. I do hope they stand by what they said about no DLCs though.

Could always join the PoorC Master Race and pirate it when it comes out. Sony doesn't protect their PC games with Denuvo so anyone can pirate them.

PS5 Slim announced, and will be on sale next month. About 30% less volume, 18% lighter than the previous PS5. $500 for regular edition, but digital has gone up in price to $450. Also $80 to add the Blu-Ray drive to the digital edition.

[baseline bum]

Ugh but PS5 Slim is a stealth $30 price increase if you don't want to put that big mother er horizontally since you have to buy the vertical stand separately now.

Also supposedly in this show are Death Stranding 2, Silent Hill, a new Sonic game, a remaster of Until Dawn, and a new Metro VR game plus a new trailer for Final Fantasy VII Rebirth.

Buying a PS5 soon, or should I get the best xbox instead? My xbox one has lasted a long ass time, like 6 years. But PS5 has all the JPRGs. I don't have much time to play anymore, what is good for someone who plays a lot of single player/JRPG type

A lot of the best JRPG are on both systems: e.g.,

Persona 5 Royal
Persona 3 Reload
Dragon Quest XI S (don't get the non S version, it has a ty MIDI soundtrack)
Yakuza Like a Dragon
Like a Dragon Infinite Wealth
NieR Automata
Nier Replicant
Shin Megami Tensei Nocturne
Persona 4 Golden
Elden Ring
Dark Souls series
Okami
Ni No Kuni 1
Sekiro


PS5 does have the FF games, and a few other bangers though:

Final Fantasy VII Remake (also on PC)
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth
Final Fantasy XVI
Bloodborne
Ghost of Tsushima
Odin Sphere Leifthrasir
Dragon's Crown
Demon's Souls Remake

Switch ain't to be slept on if you like JRPG though with exclusives like:

Shin Megami Tensei V
Xenoblade Chronicles 1-3

I'd go PS5 myself in your shoes, though Game Pass is ing nice too with Persona 3 Reload and Yakuza Like a Dragon on it right now. Though I usually just buy a month of PC Game Pass for $10 whenever a game I want comes out on it. Used it for Like a Dragon Gaiden and Lies of P last November and now for Persona 3 Reload this month. Doesn't have enough that I haven't played for me to continually subscribe to Game Pass.
