My man
Snap. Im currently going through the Metroid games
Played Zero Mission on Switch online and Samus Returns on 3DS. Gonna be starting Fusion soon but doing a new playthrough first on Super Metroid. Such brilliant games
Ive played both Ori games and Dead Cells from your list and I have Ender Lillies downloaded
Have you tried Blasphemous, Animal Well and Axiom Verge?
Just had a quick play of the Quidditch game. A bit shit.
Axiom Verge is such a brilliant one - until you reach its final stages and have to backtrack over each pixel, but I'll forgive it that. One of the few video game soundtracks I regularly listen to outside of gaming as well. I really didn't like the second game though.
To add to the Jedi survivor, it’s available on EA pass now. EA are shit and I’m not a fan of most of their games, but it’s £5.99 a month and can be cancelled anytime. So Jedi Survivor for £6 if you’re not going to go back and play it over and over, is a good deal.
That saves me downloading Hogwarts Legacy. To be fair if it was any good they'd surely have marketed the hell out of it.
On a tangent, when I first heard of real adults playing quidditch it was my first year at uni. The 'snitch' got on a bus to Newcastle and was never heard from again.
yep part 2 was not a good game at all. No idea why they changed up a great formula
Don't sleep on MLB The Show 24, I mean I am a fan of the sport so maybe it's just me but it's "Ultimate Team" mode is actually fairly balanced and easy to get into, good fun as part of your sub.
Given how unhappy football is making me I might take you up on that
What a spectacular failure.
I for one am shocked that another cartoony mmo shooter failed.
I can't think of a bigger failure in the history of gaming, considering the resources put into it and the fact it's a first party Sony title.
There should be a lot of crisis meetings and a review of their overall strategy going on at Playstation Studios right now. This will have major ramifications for the future of their first party software, hopefully in the right direction.
Almost everybody knew that game would be DOA. Insane that they're taking it offline, though. After only 2 weeks, that's unprecedented.
Jim Ryan's live service push has really failed.

Helldivers 2 was a massive success to be fair. This was a shocker, though.
They'll learn nothing though. They'll keep searching for their Fortnite/Warzone/FUT golden goose.
It had 50 players online a couple of days ago. It didn't just fail, it was a catastrophic, colossal failure.
Needed to be free to play. I actually thought it was semi decent and had potential just not different enough in such a competitive scene. People aren't easily pulled away from cod, siege, overwatch etc.
Even free I think it would have struggled to make a dent but could have perhaps served a niche.
They need to rethink the stacking systems though to be more accessible to new players and conducive to success of the team.

It probably will be in a few months and why they've refunded everybody to set it up for an F2P relaunch. They won't be just giving up on years of development this quickly.
I just dont think theres a market for it. I expect better games with more interesting characters to struggle and shut down more or less immediately. I dont think it'll be back, its DOA.
Weekend peak on steam was apparently sub-30.
Failed just like the real life concord 
It seems like it might be an easy platinum though if you're interested in that stuff.
I got 20% of the trophies just doing the tutorial.

Apparently I've played 40 hours of horizon. Considering I knocked it down to normal after a guy came at me with 3 arrows in his face that's kind of insane.
40 hours? I could have done things in that time.

As am I. Can’t wait for Friday midnight to give it a try for half an hour. Hope it’s just as good or better than the pre-installed launch one.
Wow
Agreed. It appears to be an inferior re-hash of numerous other games which are also likely to fail despite being better than Concord.
Hopefully we're getting close to the point where game devs stop chasing the GAAS golden goose to the exclusion of all else. I cant help but feel a bit of satisfaction watching games like this and Suicide Squad flop.
It's also really hard to imagine how the Last of Us MP could have been worse than this.
Anyway, best of luck to Fairgame$
Live service games...subscription gaming...weak machines not lasting even half a gen...
Wow, who would have thought it would all turn out like this?

Wow that's crazy. Think I saw a random gacha game close servers after two weeks once, but for a $180m game to do that..
Just picked up Spidey 2 from CEX after some trade-ins of old games that I don't play anymore and came as free games on PS+ anyway.
Going to go for the plat for Spidey and Quidditch Champs next. After that I'm going to go back to Rebirth and try platinum that. I got fatigued mid-way through hard mode so a break should help.

The Spiderman games are a lot of fun but I think the second one just edges it for me. They've built on the very good combat by switching between Peter and Miles. Plenty of the missions are very entertaining as well.
Black Country, New Road remain the only success.Failed just like the real life concord
Turn it into a single player shooter
Astro’s review embargo lifts tomorrow. Not sure where it’ll land in terms of scores but I’m sure excited to play this (probably 2 years later). It looks like everything I wanted Team Asobi to do after I played the delightful playroom. Hoepfully it blows up and we see such expansive Astro games regularly in the future.
I'd be surprised if it's anything less than universal acclaim. Everyone adored Astro's Playroom and, those who played it, Astrobot Rescue Mission on PSVR. The hands-on previews were all extremely positive. The only question is whether it will have enough ideas to keep things fresh for its longer runtime, but there's so much creativity at Team Asobi I doubt it'll be an issue.
I'm probably going to make an exception and buy it day one, even if I don't necessarily have time for it yet, just because this is the sort of stuff I want to support.
There was far too much focus on Kraven in the first 2/3 of the game, who was largely a very uninteresting character. The final 1/3 of the game was amazing, and I think if the entire game had that level of quality we would be talking about arguably the best superhero videogame ever. I get why they couldn’t make the entire game about that, and building up to it did make things more impactful, but they really could have done with a more interesting villain than Kraven
It will review very well. I'm sure of that.
I might actually stay up and play it for a bit after midnight and I never do that.
Astro Bot gets a 93 on Metacritic. Can't wait to play it!
94 now!
Delighted for this game. Playroom was pure blissful joy so I’m stoked for this.

Damn, hadn’t really considered this as a game I’d pay full price for, but now I’m unsure.
