Most recently GTA, Uncharted Last of Us, Diablo 2 and Tsushima (ps4)

The only real revolutionary game this generation has been Elden ring and we’re two years in with very little on the table. otherwise it’s bukkshyt like Timeloop.

Man stop. It’s good but is literally Dark Souls/Bloodborne on a horse

still probably still getting GOTY because it's only competition has been a game where you play as a cat.
I might get called fukking retarded for this but like most people are saying most of the decent next gen content is just graphical upgrades,

VR is the next frontier imo

But when Spidey 2 drops no one will care

Edit: Ragnarok is coming :demonic:

I agree with this,

makes first person games, which i generally don't like, goat tier.

Play Star Wars Squardons on PS5, then play it in VR and you'll see what it mean.
Completely transformed the game for me,

They need to release some games and this is coming from someone who pretty much has played all the true ps5 games not just the ones that are obviously last gen but they stick that ps5 logo on the title to justify it’s next gen.



And for the love of god no more rougelites

The issue is the same for all companies - we are entering into a massive worldwide recession and people will have less money to spend.

Playstation has a couple of specific issues like PS+ MAU stagnating - the new PS tiers should help with that significantly - and the hardware supply which is out of their control.

Ultimately, Playstation revenue is down 2%. The big dogs will be fine - the likes of Ubisoft on the other hand.
This is definitely not the reason. People are spending money on their “hobbies” the same as they always have and that will not stop. It’s hard out here but people still have money
