I am not sure I see how the title represents what the article is about. I am sorry if I miss read it, but I see nothing about what the differentiating factory will be between XboxOne and PS4? I own both systems, and I would like to buy the dominant version. I am not brand loyal, but dang it wish it had any info. Hope its the same on either platform, and than only controller preference would really matter.

if the already released 3rd party titles are any indication, you're better off getting it on PS4 if you plan on buying this game.

Naga3776d ago

I think you are misreading the title. The title articulates the question of the article as to the appropriateness of this Tomb Raider game on EITHER next gen console. It makes none of the console war comparisons you are inferring.

Edvin19843776d ago

You are hundred and ten precent correct. I misread the title, on the PS4 or X1 instead of what it says and my mistake.

Thanks for responding I was really baffled reading it lol

snookiegamer3776d ago (Edited 3776d ago )

LMAO!!

Yeah cos TR felt so out of place on PS3/360!?

This is only marginally better on PS4/Xbox One. At best TR will be on par with the PC version.

Don't get me wrong I loved TR on PS3, but this 30fps quick cash in rehashed port doesn't deserve re-hyping.

Naga3776d ago

I feel like I'm part of that exception to your cash-in paradigm, as I never played this on the 360 or PS3. The prospect of playing it now on my shiny new box is at least intriguing.

snookiegamer3776d ago

That's great if you're experiencing TR for the 1st time. But that means it can't be a cash in for you then can it??

Clearly, I am referring to those who purchased it already (as mentioned in my PS3/360 comment), So I'm not entirely sure why you felt to comment, but yeah..you & paradigm are welcome :)

Naga3776d ago (Edited 3776d ago )

Snookie, I'm not necessarily disagreeing with you. I was simply making an addition to the perspective you presented. No need to get so defensive.

Edvin19843776d ago

Correct. I miss read it like a baboon lol.

gedden73776d ago

Nope!!! Its basically the same game sold to the same people who bailed on it... Just a little better textures and maybe a feature here and there. I have no idea why they wont release on a new platforms like 3ds or WiiU but hey SquareEnix is known for not making good business decisions.. Aren't they close to becoming the next THQ?

JohnnyTower3776d ago

3DS is incredible, but how in gods name would you port this game to a handheld like 3DS? Vita Play is one thing, but this...
Square has been sitting on too many good IPs for the 3ds and Wii U. If anything, I'd say ditch Tomb Raider and start some Final Fantasy on the Ninty platforms again.

gedden73776d ago

Love the good points about FF and other square IPs! But you make spin off style games like Batman Arkim Blackgate..

OC_MurphysLaw3776d ago

I doubt it will sell well on either until price drops hit and even then...it wont be that much.

Holy crap, R&C Rift Apart is a huge score for those who haven't played it! It was so good.

just_looken368d ago

i agree though I don't have a ps5 but i will activate this when the prices get out of apple range.

outsider1624368d ago

Well lets hope its soon, because you never know when the game will leave psplus.

DivineHand125368d ago

I don't think it is fair to compare the PS5 to apple prices since an iphone hasn't been at $499 since the original iphone launched.

One thing I can say at your benefit though is that in gaming then longer you wait to buy, the better the deal, though if you wait too long your backlog will get out of control.

LordoftheCritics368d ago

Rift Apart is the best chill game I've played this gen.

System seller on PS Plus is a huge win.

roadkillers367d ago

I think you can redeem over your phone, no? When you get a PS5 you will have games.

MasterChief3624368d ago

A huge score for those of us that didn't just buy it literally one day ago and it's on the way now :'(
But I guess it's good to own it, as well! And I don't think I want to get PlayStation Plus right now, so it's not a huge loss. But it is still a little saddening.

I got my PS5 today, actually! Been wanting to play Rift Apart for so long. And I played Astro's Playroom at a friend's house, and that was when I was like, "I NEED THIS." Such a fun little game with so many wonderful references to Playstation stuff!

Anyways.

potatoseal368d ago

You could just re-sell your copy that is coming in the mail. But it's up to you. Rift Apart is so damn good. It blew my mind how good it looks and plays.

Dirty_Lemons368d ago (Edited 368d ago )

I hope you love it, dude. Nothing beats a shiny new console, and the PS5 is 👌 May I recommend Returnal, challenging but not Soulsborne-level challenging, and extremely good making use of those new haptics you're going to be playing around with.

Tapani367d ago

Hey I'm a relatively new PS5 owner here, but how does this new PS Plus system work? So if I go in at the Premium level for a month, it would mean I can play Horizon 2 and Ratchet & Clank just like that, right?

closed_account367d ago

Yea, you don't even need to sub Premium if those are the 2 games you're after, they're included on PS Plus Extra.

Premium just adds the legacy library of PS1, PS2, PS3 titles that are on the service.

potatoseal368d ago

Played and platinumed Ratchet And Clank: Rift Apart at launch. Loved it so much. 9/10

Am I going to download and play Bus Simulator 21? You bet :-D

potatoseal368d ago

Was just thinking I wish Bus Simulator was PSVR 2 compatible. Imagine looking over your shoulder at the passengers you pick up? Haha

*turns head around while driving*

"Shut the Fk up back there!!!! You want me to crash the bus?!?!?!?!!"

Davros69368d ago

haha, you sound like an Aussie

MrNinosan368d ago

Have to download it as well. Is it compatible with wheel?

potatoseal368d ago

Yeah apparently it's compatible with a fair few wheels. Game has been out a while.

just_looken368d ago

Yeah the vr experience on playstation continues to be crap compared to pc sadly.

Bus sim 21 vr on pc
https://www.youtube.com/wat...

And do do that well its on pc duh crap $700 console should do vr on alot more than select titles

potatoseal368d ago

PS VR2 is actually really awesome man. I have one. It's only new, so maybe I will wait for Bus Simulator 21 to get a VR update then. Judging by that video, the game looks fun in VR

just_looken368d ago

I doubt it will look at psvr 1

Dandalandan117368d ago

Will definitely download Bus Simulator as well.
My son will surely have a blast with it.

meanmallard368d ago

PS Plus IS the best gaming subscription.

S2Killinit368d ago

It really is the best way to go.

crazyCoconuts368d ago

For a lot cheaper than the other guys even

PhillyDonJawn368d ago

102 games aww that's cute 🤭

Petebloodyonion368d ago

Well technically the best deal remains by far EPIC games free offering since well it's free but aside that it's a hell of deal :)

andy85368d ago

Its funny, a few months ago this would have got so many down votes but it probably is now, the Extra/Deluxe service is flourishing. Even a day one game this month is added

andy85368d ago

@phillyDonJawn that's games added, not total. PS sub has more games on it than Gamepass but keep reaching 😂

potatoseal368d ago

@ PhillyDon, lol there are something like 534 games on PS Plus Extra right now. That is not including PS Plus Premium

ModsDoBetter368d ago

Seriously didn’t even realise how good the PS offering was.

I’m on the highest tier but the only things I gravitate toward are the two monthly games.

It was only recently that I found how to properly browse the PS+ section on the dashboard and there’s a ridiculous amount of high quality content on there.

I own a good amount of them either physical or digital but still a great selection.

Crows90368d ago (Edited 368d ago )

Yup. Ps extra is cheaper than gamepass ultimate as well...until those quality Xbox 1st party start actually kicking in ps+ is the most affordable and highest quality service.

I'll be trying out legion and humanity for sure.

MasterChief3624368d ago

So how does it work? Are these all available now? Or is it a rotation system? I literally only got my PS5 today and am a bit of a newb of this console generation.

potatoseal368d ago (Edited 368d ago )

These are all available right now I'm pretty sure. But I will post the actual lists of games. You will know in advance if anything was to be taken off this list too. A good time in advance.

PS Plus Essential (lowest price) - is the normal PS Plus and you get games every month. Here are the games for this month...
https://www.pushsquare.com/...

PS Plus Extra (mid price) - Is same as essential, BUT has all these extra games from this list, except for the PS1, PS2, PS3 and PSP games, (there aren't that many). More releasing every month. Here is all the games from PS Plus Extra
https://www.pushsquare.com/...

PS Plus Premium - same as essential and extra. But has all the PS1 and PS2 and PS3 and PSP games. More games releasing every month. Here is the list of games from this one...
https://www.pushsquare.com/...

Glad you got a PS5. It's a good investment. So much to play and so much to come. Have fun man

Ps5conehead368d ago

These are available may 16th

meanmallard368d ago

Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin Is fantastic, I can't recommend it highly enough.

Even though you have never heard of it it went on to sell well over a million copies.

meanmallard368d ago

If even one person reads this and plays it and has half as much fun as I did I'll be super happy.

jznrpg368d ago

CrimsonWing691162d ago (Edited 1162d ago )

So what I should’ve done was pass this up on the 360, pass these up on PS4, and now get them? makes sense.

LOGICWINS1162d ago

I personally never played Rise or Shadow, but I loved the OG reboot on PS4. One of the few 1080p/60fps games at the time. I may pick this up if I see it for $20 on a sale.

seanpitt231162d ago

The first 2 was good I finished them played the 3rd one as it was free on psplus but lost interest after a couple of hours.. don’t have that much time on my hands like I did before and the game wasn’t pulling me in

Mr Pumblechook1162d ago

Not to be pedantic but the Blood Ties mission isn’t listed.

jznrpg1162d ago (Edited 1162d ago )

The Reboot was great but the two after just didn’t do it for me at all and I just stopped playing after a bit

i played Shadow of TR ...It s a very good game indeed ..they ve done ton of work on it...Extremely good environments /visuals/models etc (comparable to Uncharted 4 and very simlar gameplay ..it s a solid AAA

LOGICWINS1162d ago

Based on that recommendation, I’ll pick it up!

nevin11162d ago

Shadow of TR(and UC4) sucked big time. Just walking, climbing and boring cutscenes.

ActualWhiteMan1162d ago

@Nevin what were you expecting… a first person shooter? 🤣

Neonridr1162d ago

I mean eventually everything comes in a collection or remastered set. Gotta take the plunge sometimes.

stiggs1162d ago

Hey everyone, CrimsonWing69 has already played these games so the Survivor Trilogy is cancelled.

Sorry everybody else who has interest in this release. Sorry.

CrimsonWing691162d ago (Edited 1162d ago )

Or y’know, you could freaking do what we used to do and just buy them on the console they were released on. Geezus how did you survive any generation before the PS4?

I’m definitely in the camp of releasing new games on a new console instead of revisiting the games over and over again regardless of whether others played it or not. If you missed out, relive it on the platform it was released on.

I didn’t complain when I couldn’t play NES games on a SNES or PS2 games on a PS3. These are simply cash grabs. Why can’t we just get a new Tomb Raider game instead?

For a split second I thought this was like the original games, I got super excited.

Jls11162d ago

Not sure this was needed both rise and shadow were free ps plus

LOGICWINS1162d ago

Paying a monthly or yearly fee to maintain a game in your library isn’t “free”.

Jls11162d ago

Ps plus is the cost of 1 game. How many months are there in a year, do the math.

rdgneoz31162d ago

$60 or around $40 on sale / black friday and it is needed for multiplayer, and you don't have to worry about Sony trying to double the price (and whether they'd backtrack like MS after the outrage). Though you don't need it for F2P multiplayer games, unlike Gold.

hectorius1162d ago

LOGICWINS7h ago
Paying a monthly or yearly fee to maintain a game in your library isn’t “free”.***

So online gaming is free then.. Gotcha.

badz1491162d ago

come on, LOGIC. that argument has been beaten to death already and it's already 2021. nothing is FREE on consoles except F2P games, so just give it a rest.

you know what he means by that. no need to remind us each time that they are "technically" not free. we get it

Spartacus101161d ago

@ Jls1
Here is the math:
Free = £0
PS+ = £50 annually
Is £50 greater than £0? Yes
Therefore PS+ is not free.

Amplitude1162d ago (Edited 1162d ago )

@Jls:
Why does the price of the game matter? or the number of months in a year? Lol

I see what you're trying to do but it doesn't make sense. The actual cost is the cost of Plus, multiplied by the number of years you're alive.
So let's say 60 more years before your mortality takes a turn for the worse. You're looking at about $4,800 to keep Tomb Raider in your library vs owning a physical copy.
Not to mention that these are remasters.

PS Plus is a sick deal but by definition you really don't *own* your games with it

Jls11162d ago (Edited 1162d ago )

Obviously your too dumb to figure it out. If i have to explain it to you its not worth my time.

Ridiick1162d ago (Edited 1162d ago )

Control, FFVII remake and mostly Fall Guys that is always there to play with friends, PSplus is nice for me and other several millions of gamers. Your words sound me that you are having a tantrum :), guy enjoy your platform and dont worry about others gamers

LOGICWINS1162d ago

@Ridiick Lol, whose throwing a tantrum? No one said PS Plus wasn't a good deal, but "good deal" and "free" aren't interchangable.

Amplitude1162d ago (Edited 1162d ago )

Yeah I love PS+ lmao. I'm just saying it factually isn't free, the cost does add up, and PS+'s existence shouldn't mean that actually owning games becomes abnormal.

I buy lots of games that I already have on Plus just so I'll always have them
