Playstation August Event - OT (August 6th) (PS4/VR Event)

[Waldo Geraldo Faldo]

Games that caught my interest:
Pedestrian
Auto Chess
Crash 4
The Pathless
Hood Outlaws and Legends
Aeon must Die - Pay them Devs

 

[Take It In Blood]

I'm confused, so Hitman will be entirely playable in VR or is there just a tiny VR Mode?

 

[Hey_zeus]

GOATlunky 2 is a must cop

Pathless (the boss fight)
Crash 4
Hitman Trilogy in vr
Genshin Impact

All looked good/decent

Yeah, Ionno why this one didn't get more hype. Looks like a jrpg BOTW with better combat. Count me in.

It's a gacha game. Will even be free to play on the phone

Watching this now.

Not a big Crash fan, but C4 looks great.

Don't have VR and I don't care about Hitman, but that seems like a big exclusive get for Sony VR.

Braid has got a cool ass artstyle but why is dude dressed like that? The in-game commentary is actually a great idea.

Pathless looks cool as fukk, but I don't have the patience for puzzle based games these days. It looks like the best indie along with Kena so far.

Spelunky 2

Genshin: Impact looks cool but its also gatcha/F2P.

Aeon Must Die doesn't look as good as people are saying and why did Sony show it when the studio has no employees?

Auto: Mutationem looks right up my alley...except for the movement, which looks kind of sluggish.

Bugsnax looks meh.

Vader VR games looks baaadddddddd.

Don't care about Control.

Auto Chess

The Pedestrian looks crazy random.

Hood in game stuff looked ok. will keep an eye on it.

Temtem is the most obvious Pokemon rip-off ever.

Godfall looks a bit better but the framerate still looks trash. Its going to get murdered by the critics.

 

[Grand Conde]

I assume this was cut for some reason. Looks kind of interesting but will wait on reviews.

We need a list of the first 10 exclusives to release on each platform each gen....because this new gen feels like it’s going to be the worst start of all time.
Everybody is talking about the potential of new hardware with no games to really show off that power or even generate excitement.

Let me stop you right there. The PS5 launch line-up will be:

-> Miles Morales
-> Deathloop
-> Astro's Playroom and a bunch of indies/smaller second party stuff.

That's it. Sony is not going to pump out some huge first party games at launch because it would be stupid. They (a) don't like putting their first party stuff up against huge AAA third party games (Ass Creed, Cyberpunk), (b) people will buy the hardware off of hype alone, (c) in 2020 consumers don't choose which console to buy due to 'launch line-up' (that kind of thinking is our generation, not current generation) and (d) Sony will give its first party games release room to breathe for marketing and sales purposes (it's clear this is the smart strategy btw). Basically your thinking is stuck in 1995, not 2020.

There is going to be loads of stuff to play regardless - Spiderman, Deathloop, the huge third party games coming at the end of the year and the first party games this year on BC.

And the really GOOD news is that the first year is going to be wild - Spiderman, GT7, Horizon 2, TLOU MP. Demon Souls, Ratchet & Clank...and that's only the stuff we know about right now.

So basically to summarise:

(a) stop expecting a stacked launch line-up, there won't be one
(b) Sony is going all in the first year of PS5
(c) You might as well buy the console Christmas 2021.

Hitman in VR

It better be the entire game in VR and not just some bullshyt throwaway mission like in GT sport and ace combat.
