The Sony news and discussion thread

Our James and our Josh both regard Invisible Inc. very highly indeed, so perhaps don't be too quick to dismiss that one guys.

Well Drive Club did see a PS+ release, albeit a somewhat stripped down version. More of an extended demo, I suppose. I've been pretty happy most months with what we actually get, smaller indie-type games do suit me well. But I also agree that there are a lot of bigger name titles I'm surprised we've not seen - as you say, Infamous, Killzone, The Order etc. So I'm not complaining about the games we get, they're usually very good if you actually play them, but a few more AAA titles certainly wouldn't go unappreciated.

It's had very favourable reviews, but strategy games just aren't really my thing. I really enjoyed XCom, but that was the exception rather than the norm, and we do seem to have had quite a lot of them. I'll absolutely give it a try, though.

Listening to Giantbomb's Game of the Year podcasts last year has me really interested in Invisible Inc.

[Alex79]

Just picked up a few games in the sale - Inside, Grow Up and Slain: Back From Hell, all for about 15 notes. Really looking forward to playing all three of them.

I nabbed The Witness on PS4 for £15 in the 'flash' digital sale last night.
Who knows when I'll actually play it though...

Not exactly the optimal way to play RDR (that would be the 360 version on Xbox One), but there it is nonetheless:

Just to re-iterate what has already been said, don't dismiss Invisible, Inc. It's FANTASTIC. One of my absolute favourites from last year.

Interested to hear your thoughts when you get around to it. It's a tie up between that Uncharted 4 for my GOTY.

I'm vvvvvvery pleased with vvvvvv on Vita this month. I enjoyed it years ago on PC, it'll be great to have on handheld.

I'm going to take your comment, substitute "The Witness" with "Inside", slightly adjust the price, and also wonder when I'm going to actually play it!

[ratsoalbion]

I played through Inside in a single four hour session - recommended!

[Alex79]

That's my plan for bedtime over the next couple of nights. Can't wait.

[Joshihatsumitsu]

I still haven't finished Limbo! I've had it for years on my 360, so buying Inside made me realised that perhaps I should actually find the time to play these games I buy!

Another nod for Invisible Inc. Has some very cool ideas on turn based strategy. Well worth a try.

Lot of exciting rumours for the playstation experience this weekend, I'm quite excited.

[Flabyo]

Stream for the opening press conference kicks off in about ten minutes.

Most of the panels for the rest of the day are "title to be announced" which suggests several previously unknown games will be breaking cover.

Should be fun.

[skidoosh]

Trust me to be away for the night when PlayStation GPS bloody nuclear! I'll have to catch up tomorrow

[Todinho]

Man PSX just kicked ass for me it was way better then their E3 presentation and that's saying something,however chat didnt seem to agree which might be why we cant have nice things. But whatever Patapon is coming back!

[Flabyo]

Hoooo, where to start...

Really strong showing from Sony. Some obvious crowd pleasers (new uncharted stuff, destiny stuff), plenty for the fan of Japanese weirdness (Yakuza 6, Dangonronpa 3, Ys, Ni No Kuni 2), lots of fun looking indie things (the remains of Edith, absolver, pyre...), some things dropping right now (let it die, ps4 version of umvc3).

Oh, and a new Marvel vs Capcom game. But we have to wait till Capcom Cup to see that properly.
