Remaking all three God of War games at the same time is a bold choice.
They'll probably re use a loot of stuff between them, so why not.

So we're getting three new metroidvania based on older properties (legacy of kain, god of war and castlevania). Guys, maybe coordinate a little bit.

Not crazy about the new control game since my main interest in the first one was the location (both lore wise and cause I love brutalist), so having it set outside, not sure I'll care.

Nice MGS 4... oh and peace walker came too, super.

Whatever, just wash your hands.
I was not expecting either of these.
Me neither, I was sure it would remain gog exclusive. I hope they bring over the Breath of Fire games. Even though only 4 is on gog.

Love how it says "Captured on PS5 Pro" at the start... It's a flippin' 2D Pixelated side scroller for heaven's sake... 😂

I wouldn't care to point it out if every trailer in their State of Play was captured on a PS5 Pro, but some were captured on a normal PS5, so this stood out to me.

Regarding the game itself... zero interest in it myself. I'm a bit tired of 2D Pixel Side scrollers at the moment. I hope that people who do get it enjoy it though.

I wonder if it’ll be a MetroidVeinyGod kinda deal.

And of course Sony finds a way to piss on the good mood.

Dear god, the tech hardware rental is becoming a reality
What's really funny about this is, is that there were hardware rental services in Australia for ages prior to the internet era. I remember seeing adverts on television for them. Mind they were fixed term, and like car leases you could buy out the remainder and keep the item at the end.

You could rent a console back in the 90s, thats how I played the Genesis, sega cd, Saturn and Playstation back before I got one thanks to Symphony of the Night.

Legacy of Kain Defiance is getting a remaster. It was the third game in the series.

I get annoyed when a big presentation for announcing games wastes time focusing on a game that has had a bunch of trailers and stuff and it literally out in like 14 days.

Remember when Sony kept shoving Deathloop as us? I am starting to get annoyed at RE9 because im tired of seeing trailers, not only that but the new trailers are spoiling too much shit. STOP IT!

I still remember the last trailer for NEO The World Ends With You, which managed to spoil nearly the entire plot of the game, but so far out of context that nobody even realized until they actually played through it. Good times.

Well, not the same thing, but that's what I thought of. And it's why I tend to avoid trailers after the initial announcement these days.

I am more annoyed by the lack of a demo, and this isn't even the first time Capcom has done multiple trailers for a new RE game. I get why it's annoying, but they're gonna do one more trailer when the game is near launch. Best to not even look at it, or ignore it in this case.

Okay, fair enough. But at least those consoles actually had real values, and were somewhat affordable and available for purchase.

I am just worried for the future where ownership of hardware loses all meanings, and on top of them not adding much to justify their MSRP.

One big difference is that back in the day you could rent games, can't really do that anymore so leasing a console means still having to buy your games separate and they are probably console locked too.

So an answer to the mystery of how Crimson Desert runs with all that it has going on apparently is that the game is built on a custom engine the devs made as opposed to just unreal 5, and it’s highly optimized due to that.

My one worry about this game was that it looked too ambitious and wouldn’t run well at all but now that’s assuaged.

The game feels like it is becoming one of those "too good to be true" games. And im gonna remain skeptical until I get my hands on it.
