I wish to consider
I agree with the current reader that the newest fan hearsay about GTA 6 looks like absolute nonsense however then I noticed one about Bloodborne that’s most likely equally foolish, however as a result of I like the sport I discovered myself nonetheless desirous to consider it, so I see how this kind of factor occurs.
The idea is that {that a} server upkeep replace is deliberate for the sport on the identical day because the date proven in a current PlayStation advert, that followers thought might be related to a brand new State of Play. The thought is that the sport will lastly get its PlayStation 5 patch that day or that another type of announcement can be made for the sport.
I don’t actually consider this, however I need it to be true as a result of I don’t perceive why Sony has ignored Bloodborne for therefore lengthy. It’s their greatest unique on the PlayStation 4, From’s greatest recreation, and one of many best video games of all time and it hasn’t had an oz of consideration ever because it got here out.
Sony can’t have fallen out of affection with From, as a result of they’re presently making an attempt to purchase them, so what has gone flawed? Why does Sony appear to hate Bloodborne? They gave the way more obscure Demon’s Souls a full remake, however Bloodborne can’t even get a patch 4 years after the PlayStation 5 got here out?
At this level something wanting a full sequel isn’t going to make up for this ridiculous wait and the entire lack of affection the sport has been getting.

Company crossover
Following on from what Cushon stated yesterday, what could be even higher than the 2 occasions – the Switch 2 reveal and GTA 6 Trailer 2 occurring in the identical week could be for them to be one and the identical, with the Switch 2 reveal together with the debut of the GTA 6 Trailer 2, displaying it playable on the brand new console.
While I’m on this fantasy world, the situation could be accomplished with Phil Spencer being the particular person enjoying the sport, earlier than asserting that it could be coming day one to Game Pass, which can be obtainable on Switch 2.
I recognize that that is asking numerous the Inbox magic, however you by no means know… it’s no wilder than some theories which have been floating round!

You are The Witcher
Following on out of your wonderful article on Why Star Wars Outlaws failed however Hogwarts Legacy didn’t, I’m hoping CD Projekt really feel the identical. I’d like the subsequent recreation to provide me a correct create-your-own Witcher to permit me to role-play within the Witcher universe. Imagine taking your personal character by the coaching and all of the alchemical nightmares as part of a deep role-playing recreation?
Ciri’s too overpowered for my part, assuming this follows on from the final recreation. But what about setting it a little bit down the road with a model new, clean canvas Witcher, to steadily study and finally save the world? Helped, after all, by Old Man Geralt within the Vesemir function.
I’d be throughout that…

GC: To be sincere, that’s not a foul thought for the brand new recreation.

Format focus
One factor I’m shocked at with Black Friday is that Dragon Age: The Veilguard has not had any main reductions. It’s over a month previous now and didn’t appear to try this nice. I believe the very best indication that it didn’t try this unhealthy both although is that it’s not being minimize in value proper now.
Star Wars Outlaws additionally isn’t as low cost as I believed it’d be, so I’m wondering if its failure has been overexaggerated a bit? I do know Steam is the one actual gross sales figures we will get however I believe for some video games they’re simply not the type factor that the majority PC avid gamers are all that into.
Baldur’s Gate 3 is completely a PC recreation at coronary heart, however I’d say Dragon Age was way more console centered. Star Wars Outlaws too, strikes me very a lot as a console-orientated recreation, in contrast to Starfield. I additionally noticed folks making an attempt to say Lego Horizon Adventures was a flop as a result of its PC numbers have been low however who’s going to purchase that on PC?
There’s a motive Sony launched it on Nintendo Switch and I’m prepared to wager that’s the place it’s bought probably the most – not that we’re ever more likely to know for certain.

Select the provide, begins to load up…
Hawd the bus!
It has solely simply gone and jumped proper again to prime whack.
Come on Sony, you and Microsoft are crushing my soul, man!
Can you possibly ask Sony about this nonsense as effectively, please?

Would not let it lie
I’m not going to rain on a fan’s parade if Borderlands 4 is one thing he’s actually enthusiastic about, however I can’t say I’m trying ahead to it. I actually appreciated Borderlands 2 again within the day however not solely have they not superior the gameplay since then, however the third recreation was painfully unfunny.
Maybe it’s simply because I’ve gotten older (Borderlands 2 was 12 years in the past!) however I’m fairly certain no person would argue that 3 was funnier than 2, it was simply loud and obnoxious in a method the sooner recreation principally managed to keep away from.
I additionally discover it ridiculous that Borderlands 3 nonetheless didn’t have a correct open world. It was 2019 when it got here out and there was no excuse for it being that technically backwards, when you ask me. I can solely assume that Borderlands 4 will at the least repair that however the different factor I’m not trying ahead to is the fixed, awkward jokes in regards to the film.
You simply know the sport’s not going to have the ability to keep away from making jokes about it and I’m already cringing on the very thought. If I used to be Gearbox, I’d simply overlook it and let it’s however I’ll wager good cash they’ll choose that scab until it bleeds.

Stay out of bother
Just a suggestion to anybody trying within the Black Friday gross sales, that RoboCop: Rogue City is grime low cost in the intervening time however extremely beneficial. If you’re a fan of the movie then it’s no query, simply get it now, however even when you’re not it’s a extremely stable, old style first particular person shooter with nice fight and a few surprisingly good humour and characters.
It’s by the identical those who did the current Terminator video games, which additionally had good tales however not so good motion, however RoboCop is an actual step up for them and I’m to see what they do subsequent.

Top 20
I’m feeling moderately rapturous on this wonderful day; for I simply snapped up a PlayStation VR2 for £271 within the Black Friday gross sales (stacked a 20% off voucher I had on prime of the seasonal low cost). Talk a few gargantuan discount!
I got here extraordinarily shut to buying the gadget on its launch date, however I’m glad I exercised some requisite self-control and waited for the format to host at the least 20 video games in VR that I’d think about must-haves, earlier than parting with my valuable moolah. And verily, that threshold of unreserved desirability has nearly been reached after two years in the marketplace.
The authentic PlayStation VR was a revelation for me, it ushered in an unprecedented sense of palpable depth and immersion to my gaming after I purchased it again in 2018. With Resident Evil 7, Astro Bot: Rescue Mission, Rez Infinite, Thumper, WipEout Omega Collection, and Star Wars Squadrons being among the many most euphoric experiences I’ve ever had in my 35 years as a gamer.
Can’t wait to be blissfully transported and giddy with wonderment and delight (plus terror!) as soon as I delve into Gran Turismo 7, Resident Evil Village and 4, Humanity, Tetris Connect, Synapse, Red Matter 2, Madison, Moss: Book 2, No Man’s Sky, Metro Awakening, Fantavision 202X, Max Mustard, Alien: Rogue Incursion, and extra.
My hopes now are that PlayStation VR2 gross sales attain a brand new milestone on the power of the Black Friday promotions, coupled with a considerably burgeoning library of compelling video games, and Sony are pressured to reVITAlise their first/second celebration help for it. Still, a lot untapped potential within the console VR house.
On a slight tangent, I’m presently four-fifths by new Astro Bot and the sport design is just spellbinding and PlayStation at their inventive, charming peak. So, fingers crossed Team ASOBI can as soon as once more transplant the platforming magic into the VR area.
I’d accept a Rescue Mission PlayStation VR2 port while we wait although. Inbox magic for a Half Life: Alyx port too. Happy gaming every body!

I actually don’t see how video games like Palworld and this new Horizon Zero Dawn clone can exist. Surely it’s an open and shut case that they’re ripping off present video games? Making them survival video games as a substitute isn’t fooling anybody.
