We will find out tomorrow. But I think its all bullcrap.

I had no idea the new Saints Row even had DLC. Is it story DLC? I'd actually be up for jumping back into the game if it's story driven. It's not a great game or anything and it's the worst game in the series by a mile, but I had a really great time with it for some season. Just such a shame we'll never get another Volition game.

They released three DLC expansions for the game and depending on when you played it I'm not surprised you didn't know about it because the first didn't release until about 9 months after the game launched, which is way too long imo. What we got out of the reboot wasn't going to hold people's attention for that long, I suspect a lot would've beaten the game and then traded it in by then.

The first expansion was "The Heist & The Hazardous" and it added new weapons, vehicles, cosmetic stuff and 3 new missions to play. The missions are decent, but they're over before you know it.

Second expansion was "Doc Ketchum's Murder Circus" and I actually regret buying this one a little, because it's the only part of the game that can't be played in co-op. It's basically a wave shooter and if you've made a certain amount of progress in the story, you won't be able to use your character in this and will have to choose a premade contestant.

Third expansion is "A Song of Ice & Dust" which I just bought but haven't played yet. It released last month, a full year after the game's launch. It adds 5 new story missions (I think it revisits the LARP stuff from the base game's story) and new weapons and vehicles.

I don't know if I'd call this the worst in the series though. I'm at least committed to going for 100%, the only ones in the series I couldn't do that for were Saints Row IV and Gat Out of Hell. Maybe some day I will go back to them and do that, but I didn't enjoy them enough to do it when I originally played them.

Lies of P was apparently nerfed. I didn’t have the patch last time I played but I only have 2-3 bosses left. I’m anxious to see if the change is noticeable.

Review copies of Spider-Man 2 were sent out. Embargo lifts on October 16th.

Yea I saw that. I've been playing offline because I like the level of difficulty currently

Mine didn’t patch. I may do the same.

So I guess the hack was all lies. Nothing happened. They said they would release all the data yesterday, they didn't. I don't think they actually had anything to begin with. And Sony wont even comment on it besides saying, we are looking into it.

Maybe Sony looked into it.

Isn’t that a defacto nut punch? Meat damage?

meat Damage

glad I didn't waste time freaking out removing my card or anything like that.

Best Buy has the Spider-Man 2 Console if anyone is looking, got one for my Nephew.

We still don't really know for sure. They said they would release it if they didn't find a buyer. What if they did?

I've always just used PSN cards to buy things.

even if it was, it was not big and in no way as big as the one years ago.

After spending about 60 hrs with Lies of P- I can very confidently say that this is the best souls like I have played outside of from soft. It took awhile for it to click- but this one is a gem. Very well polished and deep game. I’m glad I got the ps4 version- because I’m going to play through all the trophies again.

Give this one a chance and time- after the third boss you’ll have it down.

my "access" to movies.

I would normally not care about access to movies that can also be found elsewhere. But lately I've been watching UHDs on my PS5 using the 3d headset and it's been rather fantastic. So I may actually check this out.

The above Tweet says "PlayStation Plus Premium/Deluxe Members Get Access up to 100 Movies on the Sony Pictures Core App.", but unless I'm missing something the website and the e-mail they just sent out about it only mentions it being available to PlayStation Plus Premium members.

I went ahead and linked my PSN account to it, but I very likely won't use it much if at all. Just looking through the free movie section, I see a bunch of stuff that is also on Tubi for free, so why wouldn't I just use that? If I rent movies (which is very rare), I'll probably just stick to YouTube, unless this service has something they don't.

They lost their ass on people unsubbing and the feedback was "20% increase but no benefits" as to why they dropped, and their answer to this was to offer something that costs them absolutely nothing. Very classy

Sony gonna learn the hard way as the shadow of greed consumes them. I know I’m letting my PS+ run out in a month and likely not Re-upping for a good long while. If anything I’ll migrate back on over to game pass on Xbox eventually. At least there I can play some good new stuff day 1.

After Spider-man 2 and Final Fantasy VII Rebirth there doesn't seem to be any big games announced for the future for the PS5 or am I missing them?

Just trying to think probably too soon for another God of War, Horizon or Ratchet game, Uncharted seems dead but maybe they revive it under another developer besides Naughty Dog, speaking of that Last of Us 3 could be a possibility. Ghost of Tsushima sequel would be awesome. These are all first party of course which FF 7 Rebirth isn't but it's console exclusive at least for now.

Uncharted series has sold 41 million copies, 2nd only to Gran Turismo for Sony game series (90 million). It seems hard to believe they're not going to ever make another game.

Edit: Seems Persona 6 will be at least a timed exclusive, can't wait for that.

Someone on gamefaqs gave me a nice list of exclusives with no release dates.

* Stellar Blade
* Schim
* Pacific Drive
* Silent Hill 2 Remake
* Death Stranding 2
* The Last of Us Factions
* Marvel’s Wolverine
* Knights of the Old Republic Remake
* Metal Gear Solid 3 remake

I pray to the old gods and the new the KOTOR remake doesn’t get canned. Last I heard it wasn’t doing too hot.

I'd rather never see it than see another GTA Trilogy. You can run KOTOR in 4K on the new Xboxes with SSD loading times, just do that :p

If we are talking about the OG, I got and beat the physical version of switch. And I think I have the physical KOTOR 2 release coming in soon. God, yet another switch game to the backlog.

You are clearly a masochist, playing the worst version of the GTA Trilogy on the worst system to play it on. Unless you mean knights of the old republic? Didn't know that got a normal release

Switch is the best system no matter what! Because it's portable!

Talking bout KOTOR

And sorry thought this was the switch forum. I would never touch the GTA trilogy re-release. If the locale of GTA 6 looks appealing, I might go for it though. Since R*'s new releases usually end up being pretty cutting edge stuff.

GTA VI will be cutting edge when it releases on PS7 in 2035.

Some of the main devs and writers who made GTA and RDR great have left Rockstar. So could we get a Resident Evil 5 or Metal Gear Survive situation? I think GTA 6 will be better than those games but I could see it still being a disappointment in comparison to past GTAs.

Michael Unsworth, a senior writer at Rockstar Games who has worked on some of the company’s biggest hits, appears to have left the famous developer after 16 years. He joins a growing list of veteran Rockstar employees who have departed the company over the last few years.

The other Rockstar vets who have already left
While it’s not uncommon for longtime employees to leave companies, even successful ones, it has become a bit of a trend for Rockstar Games in the last few years. In 2020, both Lazlow Jones and Dan Houser left the popular studio. Jones was a longtime producer and writer who had been with Rockstar for nearly 20 years and worked on every GTA game since GTA III. Houser was the co-founder of Rockstar Games and had been a part of the company since 1998, touching nearly every game the company had ever published or developed.

In 2016, a few years before those departures, longtime Rockstar North president Leslie Benzies left the company after he claimed he was pushed out and filed a lawsuit against Rockstar. The suit ended in 2019 with a confidential settlement.

Get out old man, we need to ruin this company

Yeah. The Hauser’s left Rockstar and now it’s run by someone who only cares about profit and money and not bringing back quality games or classic IP’s. It is a great time to Boycott Rockstar.

Yeah i miss the good old days when companies didn’t care about profit and money

…

Open world murder Sims, that's basically all Rockstar does. I haven't touched anything by them since GTAIV and I barely played that

GTA V seems like it’s aging very well. Played it a bit last week. That’s enough for me.

Don't know if you're being serious or being facetious because you know damn well that $$ is all that has ever mattered. They've just found newer, grosser ways to monetize their content and people keep throwing money at them so why stop?

Kommie wrote:

That's a bit harsh. Both RDRs are fantastic and so was GTAV. Not to mention games like LA Noire, Max Payne, Bully etc. Maybe I'm in the minority here, but I'm looking forward to the unveiling for GTA6. Maybe I don't follow gaming news closely enough, but I don't see a reason to outright boycott them. I'll just play the games they make that interest me and skip the ones that don't.
