Astro Bot was the highlight of the last State of Play and PlayStation 5 owners are excited to get their hands on Team Asobi’s next project. Unfortunately, quality gaming comes with a hefty price tag which could discourage the gaming community from grabbing it on day one.
Price can be a massive deal breaker for the casual gamer; not everyone is willing to spend much money on a game. This will be an ongoing dilemma throughout the current console generation and Astro Bot is now on that list.
Players Are on the Fence for Astro Bot’s Price Tag
Astro Bot will be released exclusively on the PlayStation 5 later this year.

God of War has been hailed as one of the greatest single-player games of all time and director Cory Barlog is still collecting flowers from it years later. The franchise was revisited with a breath of fresh air, and it was a no-brainer for Sony to pass up the director’s creative vision.
The gaming community believed that Santa Monica Studios was ready to move on to a new story and permanently close the chapter in Kratos’ book but did the complete opposite, as revealed in the iconic E3 demo, and the director remembered that day down to the smallest detail.

Astro Bot is going to be an absolute blast for PlayStation fans. This title is probably the biggest one for Team Asobi. This development company first launched Astro Bot Rescue Mission in 2018 as an action platformer for PS4’s Psvr, where all the robot characters lived inside the DualShock 4 controller.
The upcoming title is exciting as well, as the company will incorporate iconic Ps characters into the game. This game has recently been revealed in the latest State of Play event. However, there is one aspect of this game that is following the path of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 but not of God of War Ragnarok.

If you’ve ever played Yakuza (Like a Dragon), then you know how much the game is like a movie or TV show.

According to the press release, the show will have six episodes and will be about crime and action. It will tell a new story based on the first Yakuza game from 2005. It’s about Kazuma Kiryu, who used to be in the yakuza. We all remember that he had to go to prison for his sworn brother, which caused a lot of strife in the organization.

In Norse mythology and the God of War, one giant’s strength was unmatchable to the gods of all realms. He was a giant with 8 arms, wielding 4 swords. He was so feared among all the gods that even Thor, the mightiest Norse God, would dare not fight with him alone. Thor is considered the strongest warrior in Norse mythology but his might consisted of trickery and dishonourable fights.
Starkad | God of War Wiki | Fandom
In the universe of God of War, giants were usually considered a peaceful community with immense physical and magical abilities that made the Norse gods insecure. The Norse Gods resorted to politics, to wipe out anything threat to their position on the throne. And on Mimir’s advice, they did the same with Starkaðr.

GTA 6 was confirmed to be released on the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. Unfortunately for PC users, there’s no news yet; there’s no doubt that it’ll eventually come to the platform, like the other games, but expect delays of a year or more.
As users discuss the possibilities of the game appearing on PC, one thing is clear; what the co-ceo of PlayStation said about growing the playerbase through exclusives might not have been so off-base after all.

Unless you’re trying to remain entirely unspoiled about God of War: Ragnarok before you play it on November 9th, I highly recommend you check out the game’s latest story trailer. Like most of the game’s promotion material thus far, it’s an enticing preview of what is to come as well as an incredibly well-done piece of work in its own right.
If you did watch that trailer, then I’m willing to bet there is a good chance you were shaken by the impact of the voice that pops in around the 40-second mark. While the dialogue that seemingly disembodied character speaks throughout the trailer is undoubtedly powerful on its own (Kratos really isn’t the kind of god that has ever inspired love), it’s the quality of the voicework that likely left you reeling. It’s not only a great performance but there’s...

Sony was not kidding when they promised to adapt several of their flagship game franchises into major motion pictures. With adaptations of Ghost of Tsushima, God of War, Days Gone, Gravity Rush, Twisted Metal, The Last of Us, and more on the way, the studio is determined to bring gamers out of their basements and into movie theaters. Another project Sony Pictures will bring to the grand stage is Sony and Polyphony’s Gran Turismo, based on the acclaimed racing game that helped redefine expectations for the genre. David Harbour is attached to star in the adaptation, lending an impressive amount of star power to the film produced by PlayStation Production’s Asad Qizilbash Carter Swan, Doug Belgrad, and Dana Brunetti.

“Stranger Things” actor David Harbour is off to the races and will star in Sony and PlayStation’s adaptation of the car racing franchise “Gran Turismo,” an individual with knowledge of the project told TheWrap.
Neill Blomkamp (“District 9”) is directing the video game adaptation based on a screenplay written by Jason Hall and Zach Baylan.
“Gran Turismo” is actually not a direct adaptation of the game but a true story about a teenage Gran Turismo player whose gaming skills won a series of Nissan competitions to become an actual professional race car driver. Harbour will play a retired driver who teaches the teen to drive.
Sony is releasing the movie on Aug. 11, 2023.

Of the half dozen TV programs that each received at least five acting Emmy notices in 2022, “Squid Game” is the only one with no past contenders in its nominated cast. The quintet of Korean performers recognized for their work in the Netflix series’ first season range in age from 28 to 77 and have screen acting resumes that date as far back as 1994. One of the show’s three supporting nominees, Park Hae-soo, has earned this mention 15 years into his career, which has consisted of equal parts stage, film, and TV work.
Park has decided to have Emmy voters consider his performance in the inaugural season finale of “Squid Game,” entitled “One Lucky Day.” At the beginning of the installment, his character, Cho Sang-woo, stands as one of two finalists in the central contest, along with Seong Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae).

It’s not hard to understand how “franchises” became a bad word. At a time when ideas are born to become IPs, it’s easy to look down on the very idea of a franchise. However, not all franchises are treated equally. In fact, there have been quite a few video game franchises that never really got the chance they deserved.
It’s odd to think of a video game franchise eventually being lost to time. After all, the very idea of a game becoming a franchise means that it obviously was a big enough deal at one point to be worthy of follow-ups. Yet, history has shown that it’s surprisingly easy for a series to just vanish. Some fell off the radar due to bad sales or a few bad entries, but others vanished from our collective conscious for no good reason at all.

Exclusive: Hae-soo Park, who played Squid Game finalist Sang-Woo, has signed with UTA.
The talent agency has signed the actor, who is currently fronting Netflix’s Korean remake of Money Heist, in all areas.
It comes after a major courtship by the Hollywood agencies to the cast and creatives behind the smash hit Korean dystopian drama series.
Squid Game creator Hwang Dong-hyuk and stars Lee Jung-jae and Jung HoYeon all signed with CAA, so it’s a coup for UTA to nab Hae-soo Park.
Hae-soo Park recently scored an Emmy nomination for Supporting Actor in a Drama Series.
He has previously starred in Netflix’s Korean dark baseball comedy Prison Playbook, Chimera, Persona, Legend of the Blue Sea, Six Flying Dragons, and God of War.

The first Horizon game released in 2017 via Sony Interactive on the PlayStation 4.

Almost every long-running video game franchise has a signature weapon that shows up in almost every entry. For God of War, that weapon is the Blades of Chaos. For Half-Life, it’s the crowbar. For The Legend of Zelda, it is most certainly the Master Sword.
Also known as the Blade of Evil’s Bane, the Master Sword is one of the most frequent recurring faces of the franchise. Even though most Zelda games star different characters, all of whom are named Link, the Master Sword is the same weapon throughout. This has, unfortunately, resulted in some retcons and contradictory origins since the Master Sword has technically existed longer than the Legend of Zelda timeline. Whenever one entry provides an origin story for the weapon, a sequel eventually comes along and delivers a different tale.
So what is the true origin of the Master Sword? Who forged the only weapon...

Raymond Reddington is eating chilled Camembert and betrayal in The Blacklist season 9 episode 21, but what has he got to lose? A friend and bag man who sits in a car and cries while he watches his murderous orchestrations unfold in front of Pasqual’s restaurant. According to Marvin’s perspective of Liz’s death and the soundtrack playing through his memory, that fatal bullet took away Red’s “baby” and his “heart.” And Marvin knew it.
It turns out that Marvin was the bug in VanDyke’s ear pushing Townsend’s obsessively loyal bodyguard into the role of kamikaze assassin. Quite a shove from Marvin who is somehow able to keep VanDyke at gunpoint when Marvin can barely hold up the gun convincingly, much less shoot it.

God of War creator and controversial YouTube figure David Jaffe recently went on a tirade in which he laid much of the blame for Starfield‘s recent delay at the feet of Microsoft Gaming CEO and Head of Xbox, Phil Spencer.
Before we dive into those comments, it’s important to understand some additional context about this story. First off, in case you haven’t heard, Bethesda recently confirmed that they have decided to delay Starfield and Redfall from 2022 to the first half of 2023. While Redfall did not previously have a specific released date beyond a vague September 2022 window, Starfield previously had a highly publicized 11-11-22 release date. The announcement didn’t really come as a shock to many who were familiar with Starfield‘s development hurdles, but it did draw quite a few reactions from fans and industry figures.

First off, in case you haven’t heard, Bethesda recently confirmed that they have decided to delay Starfield and Redfall from 2022 to the first half of 2023. While Redfall did not previously have a specific released date beyond a vague September 2022 window, Starfield previously had a highly publicized 11-11-22 release date. The announcement didn’t really come as a shock to many who were familiar with Starfield‘s development hurdles, but it did draw quite a few reactions from fans and industry figures.

The controversy around Thor’s weight gain in “Avengers: Endgame” has been reignited on social media following the debut of the first “Thor: Love and Thunder” trailer. Chris Hemsworth’s superhero infamously packed on the pounds for “Avengers: Endgame” (the internet dubbed this iteration of the character “Fat Thor”), which led many to wonder how the upcoming “Thor: Love and Thunder” would handle the character’s weight gain. Although Thor has his “Endgame” weight when the trailer begins, it’s not long before there’s a brief training montage (Thor exercising with chains) and then the return of the muscular Thor from the pre-“Endgame” Marvel movies.
“Fat Thor” proved controversial and made headlines for much of summer 2019 during the record-breaking run of “Avengers: Endgame.” While some fans were delighted to see a new side of Thor, others accused the movie of being fat-phobic since it frequently used Thor’s...

If you were a Playstation guy over an Xbox guy, then you must have played the God of War games. Let me just say that Kratos, the Spartan God of War, is without a doubt one of the greatest video game protagonists. It’s not really because he’s a heroic character, far from it. What makes this video game anti-hero so spectacular is the fact that he is one of the few video game characters who defined a generation. This bloody fun video game series showed us that not all protagonists can be good people at heart. For the case of

Thirty years ago, the iconic anime series Sailor Moon debuted in Japan and has taken over the world since then. Let’s take a look back on some of the most iconic moments from the beloved anime.
“On March 7th, 1992, the very first episode of Sailor Moon aired in Japan. Thirty years later, Naoko Takeuchi’s creation is still one of the most impactful series in pop culture—not just in Japan, but all around the world. While the Champion of Love and Justice wouldn’t arrive in the U.S. until 1995, the anime holds a special place in my heart as being one of the first series I’d seen where the heroes were all girls.”

The brilliant God of War has finally arrived on PC as part of the PlayStation team’s recent (and surprising) push to expand some of their services to that platform, which also means that PC gamers ready to experience one of the best games of the last 20 years are suddenly wondering which of God of War‘s difficulty settings they should choose.
While it may not seem that hard to choose a difficulty setting (and the choice obviously comes down to personal preference), the odd names for God of War‘s various difficulty modes combined with the fact that the game doesn’t exactly do the best job of telling you about the differences between them mean that many people boot up the game with more than a few questions about which one is the right one for them.

Spider-Man: No Way Home has already conquered the box office and the hearts of fans across the globe, but now it’s time for it to take over memes, starting with a tentacle-less Doc Ock.
“Doc Ock is one of the more menacing villains in Spider-Man’s rogues’ gallery. Not only is he someone that will willingly threaten the life of Aunt May to get to Peter Parker, but he was also first a friend. A mentor turned mind-controlled man with robotic arms, Otto Octavius became the second mad scientist to destroy Peter Parker’s life in the Sam Raimi movies. Played by Alfred Molina, he brought destruction to Peter’s life in the best of ways as a villain, and we loved seeing what Molina brought to the character.”

Over 155 million PlayStation 2s have been sold to date, but few of those 150+ million PS2 owners have ever come close to beating the beloved console’s hardest games.
Sure, the PS2 may have helped make 3D games significantly more “playable,” and yes, it did slowly pull us away from the era of absurdly difficult arcade-style games, but it was also the console that seemingly inspired a new generation of developers to ask “What does the future of incredibly difficult games look like?”
Their answers include a driving game where mistakes are not an option, a rhythm game harder than actually learning an instrument, a beat-em-up that beats you up, and more of the absolute hardest PS2 games ever made.

You didn’t have to watch much of Xbox’s E3 2021 event to understand two things: the Xbox team really wants you to subscribe to Game Pass, and the incoming barrage of Xbox exclusives includes an impressive number of RPGs.
Starfield and The Outer Worlds 2 were the RPG highlights of Microsoft’s E3 2021 showcase, but those games only scratch the surface of Xbox’s RPG plans. There’s also The Elder Scrolls 6, Avowed, Fable, and a host of third-party RPGs either exclusive to Xbox platforms or easily accessible via Game Pass. The Xbox vs. PlayStation 5 debate became a lot more interesting after E3 2021, and for RPG fans, that potential decision may be tougher than ever before.
Honestly, that’s probably the point of Xbox’s impressive RPG lineup. After all, if they’re going to challenge Sony again when it comes to quality and quantity of exclusives, what better way...
