Hot take: Persona sucks.

I wouldn't say it sucks but the school crap gets in the way of me just wanting to battle monsters. I prefer SMT but Persona is the more recognisable title.

Looking forward to Metaphor, Monster Hunter Wilds and Ghost of Yotei (Ghost of 2shima) the most for sure.
Not sure they'll all be day-one buys but Yotei will be for sure.

I'm not into the high school crap either, but I'm willing to write that off as "I'm not the target demographic." My concerns have more to do with the actual gameplay, which... to call it repetitive and shallow would be an insult to many other repetitive and shallow things.
I played P3 on PSP in its entirety, partly because there was nothing else worth playing on PSP, and partly because after a point, I was almost incredulous that a game could be so dull, and I wanted to fully understand the extent.
Later, reviews for P5 were so absurdly glowing, I fell into the trap and bought it. (Once again, there was almost nothing else to play on PS at that time.) I played for an embarrassing number of hours, trying to decide which was more boring: the walks between 10,000 identical turn-based battles, the battles themselves, or the overnight "please select your only option" lifestyle simulator. (That last bit went on for a truly laughable duration. Literally: "Press X to have 'fun'. You're too tired to have 'fun'. Please go to your bed and press X.")

Awesome! Haven't had a decent iPad game since Slay the Spire.

Oh shit, no way! Thanks
I was hoping the demo that they've been showing around the trade shows would become available eventually, but the game's prologue is even better. I love when demos are just the beginning of the game. The Dragon Quest XI demo was fantastic and ended at the perfect spot. Just enough time to get invested in the characters.

Decided to play Tunic as the last game before my free month of Game Pass PC expires.
So far it's been pretty good, kind of like Zelda meets Dark Souls. Visually nice, and really does not hold your hand, often you have no idea where exactly you are supposed to go. Most of the levels have been fun to traverse because there's secret routes around every nook if you just look carefully. Lots of times ended up with "Wait, there was a shortcut through there all along?!"
The Nintendo style guide book you have in-game is executed perfectly, hits right up to that old game guide nostalgia with hand drawn maps etc.

It was one of my fave games of 2022 tbh
I played about an hour and a half of the new Zelda game last night. Seems like it's gonna be awesome but I'm getting tons of framerate drops/slowdowns....like within the first 5 minutes of even starting the game

Can’t wait for this! I still have the Director’s Cut of GoT to play, too. I’ve been holding off on it because I’ve already played the game 3x on PS4, but my excitement for it is kicked up a notch now!

I’d be all in on PSVR2 just for Gran Turismo if it didn’t make me nauseous.
Don't forget to feed them lots of poo!
Loved that game haha; I need to play through it again because I think they added a lot of content

There can be an adjustment period for sure. I've heard it referred to as finding one's VR legs.
Playstation added the remake The Last of US Part 1 to PS Plus for anything interested. Looks and plays so much better than the PS4 version.
