Yeah that's nice Sony but where's the collectors edition

A statue...some replicas...a steelbook

Come on, the Bloodbourne Collectors Edition was awesome.

SullysCigar1334d ago

Hell yeah, I'd be down for that.

bouzebbal1334d ago (Edited 1334d ago )

So hyped for this one.. I know I'll lose my social life for a while but it's worth the risk 👌🏽 I'm so curious about those haptic feedback... And fast loading... Suits this genre so well

fsfsxii1334d ago

plastic garbage like that should be abolished from gaming.

Skuletor1334d ago

Why? It's optional and doesn't effect anything in the actual game, unlike microtransactions

-Foxtrot1334d ago (Edited 1334d ago )

Hey...there are so FINE ass collectors editions out there which if done right can become really nice to display in yur house.

Not to mention there's a chance of them becoming rare so in the future, if you want, you might make something on them.

Some collectors editions are great like Ni No Kuni Wrath of the White Witch, some are shit and become worthless like Duke Nukem Forever

Least people can sell them later, unlike MT's and Lootboxes.

"I don't like it so nobody should have it" SMH.
I've gotten some great collector editions, and hope they keep coming.

jukins1334d ago

I absolutely love my gaming collectors edition. From trico to Kratos to deacon spidefman and alloy. Even have the weird baby and collectables from death stranding. People like my statues lol

Mr Logic1334d ago

@ZeroBlu2

You know what looks even better? Not having an entertainment center.

Flewid6381333d ago

For what? No one is forced to buy them other than the people who want it.

Just excited to play the game. I don't need a Demon's Souls Barbie doll.

NEXUS-61334d ago

Then it's not for you, just buy the standard. Easy peasy.

phoenixwing1334d ago

Men can have dolls too. They're called action figures.

porkChop1334d ago

Yeah Demon's Souls would be the game to get a collector's edition with a cool statue and steelbook. I'm surprised they didn't do that.

I'd rather earn my in game inventory, starting with all this would basically be starting on easy mode

SlothLordPootus1334d ago

Is the Reaper Scythe the only thing exclusive to this version. All the other items are still available to earn in game, correct? I couldn't find an answer on the blog

Skuletor1334d ago

I think the scythe is a preorder bonus, it's not on the item list

NEXUS-61334d ago

They wouldn't give away game breaking items, and the extra souls would only amount to a level or 2, same with the upgrade materials.

But I can see you point, these are games about accomplishment and overcoming the odds.

I'll probably still get the collectors edition though - hopefully physical too.

Vanfernal1334d ago (Edited 1334d ago )

Depends on encumbrance and Stat requirements. That armor looks pretty heavy and the scythe might have a high strength/dex requirement. Anything apart from the default starting gear tends to be too dependent on strength or heavy to use without leveling up.

MajorLazer1334d ago

Would I be correct in assuming these can be found/earned ingame via progression anyway? If so, hard pass. I'll be sticking with my trusty long sword throughout till NG+, just as I did with the original and all the other souls games.

spambot08151334d ago

how about a edition that comes with a ps5? ;-)

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH1334d ago (Edited 1334d ago )

I’m only interested in new areas as content for this game and since there doesn’t appear to be any with this edition I think I’ll stick with the standard version. I’m sure ALOT of the hardcore souls community will take issue with all these starting bonuses.

oldenjon1334d ago

I don't think blue point will be taking those kinds of liberties with the game, unless it's a callaboration with from soft which seems unlikely.

sushimama1334d ago (Edited 1334d ago )

I'm a hardcore souls fan. Played Demon's Souls on the PS3 when it came out where I am. I don't care in the slightest about these 'goodies' people will start with. It's not going to help them in the long run anyway.

I wonder if their wil be future FREE dlc with this game with that archstone to be fixed and make a new area. Ghost Of Tsushima dev are giving us free dlc content. It's not impossible for it to happen. But yes, I'm going the STANDARD edition all the way.

1333d ago
Pedantic911334d ago

$70 was already pushing it.
No one but the most hardcore of the fans might consider spending $90 for a DIGTIAL EDITION of all things.

The best PS5 exclusives 2024

With so many PS5 exclusives to choose from, it can be a little overwhelming to pick which one to play. This is especially true for a new PlayStation gamer who has yet to experience the wonder of PlayStation-exclusive storytelling. So, here's KnowTechie's take on the best PS5 exclusives in 2024 and beyond

PlayStation is killing it with the exclusives this year. Exclusive wise, what has xbox released this year?

VersusDMC41d ago

They won't complain about Microsoft not releasing games here but put all their effort into saying that only first party counts. Games like Rebirth and Grandblue Relink don't count. Games published by Sony like Helldivers 2, Stellar Blade and Rise of the Ronin don't count because Sony don't own the studios.

It's some narrative building so for when Hellblade 2 come out they can say, seemingly without shame, that Microsoft is actually releasing first party games this year. And claim victory.🙃

Chevalier41d ago

Weird 1st party games didn't matter when Xbox had so little, but, now they're important again? Guess Ark 3, Stalker 2 don't count any more?

KyRo41d ago (Edited 41d ago )

ARK 3 doesn't exist and it's just a timed exclusive. It's also a game that a majority of the ARK player base doesn't want as it's a massive deviation from what people like about the original game

Abnor_Mal41d ago (Edited 41d ago )

Honestly to me it doesn’t matter what they say, they are just finally getting a chance to say all the things PS fan(boy)s were saying to them for the past few years. Let them get that, they deserve a “win” for a change.

The new narrative is that suddenly first party games matter again when awhile ago they didn’t, but that was because they were struggling with the same three games with the occasional fourth or fifth. That games should be everywhere on all platforms since that’s whats happening to theirs. The consoles don’t matter just the ability to play anywhere. Whatever Xbox is doing Sony will soon follow.

They’re not moving the goalpost anymore, but rather just moving the whole damn stadium.

jwillj2k441d ago

Only a incel would care about who published what and who owns who.

If it’s not on the other consoles it’s an exclusive.

Killing what? Where are the 1st party games??
Stellar Blade and FF7 is what I’m seeing this year.. so shallow!!!!

andy8541d ago

Doesn't really matter as long as they're great games. Baffles me why people put an emphasis on 1st party. They're still games you can't play anywhere else this year

Cacabunga41d ago

Andy

PS brand is my favorite because of their stellar first party software.. currently I see absolutely nothing to go crazy for..

CS741d ago

Nonsense.

PS1 and PS2 was built on great third party exclusives like FF, MGS, GTA & Tekken.

raWfodog41d ago

Of course I love the games I’ve played from PS but I don’t believe we need to limit it to ‘exclusive’ to acknowledge that Xbox will be releasing some good games this year also. In that same vein, I believe that Xbox diehards shouldn’t limit their acknowledgment of good PS games to 1st party. There are plenty of good games to go around for everybody.

Tacoboto41d ago

This is a Playstation article about Playstation games and your comment is about Xbox. Can't you just celebrate what PS has without dragging this into console war BS?

ChasterMies41d ago

I don’t think Microsoft is releasing games exclusively on Xbox anymore. They have some timed exclusives that release on Xbox first.

Abear2141d ago (Edited 41d ago )

Returnal, Astro Bot, and Ratchet made having it since day one worth it.

GT7 free updates and Spiderman 2 and others at 60fps have made this last year more than okay.

But yeah, it’s been dry lately. BG3 and third party have made great filler, but we ready for that SOCOM or Killzone announcement and some more 1st party goodness. Crossing fingers for Ghost of Tsushima 2 announcement this summer.

Didn’t know Helldivers was exclusive! Wtf is going on at Xbox that they can’t get these games, series s strikes again.

SonyStyled41d ago (Edited 41d ago )

Sony owns the Helldivers IP. The first was a PS3/Vita/PC game. It was never an Xbox game that they could ‘get’ a decade ago. I’m not sure what the upset is with Xbox here

CS741d ago

Lol, how do you ignore Rebirth one of the best games ever made?

anast41d ago

Looks like they are on par with the previous gens. Solid games all around. Interestingly enough, we can't say they released a bad game yet this gen. Unlike the Quiet Man dustup.

I actually do not mind if Marathon releases on multiple platforms . I just wish that Marathon has a dedicated single player campaign.

DaniMacYo41d ago

Helldivers 2 is exactly what gaming needed. I’m loving it.

The 7 Best Co-op Games on PS5

There's no better way to enjoy your PS5 than with friends, so here's our picks of the best co-op games on the console.

Cacabunga134d ago

For coop, get a used switch instead

jznrpg134d ago

I own a Switch and have never played co-op on it. I do play Elden Ring , Demons Souls and some other co/op games with my friends on PS5. Baldurs Gate 3 is the next game I’ll play co-op. Can’t do that on a Switch

Cacabunga134d ago

I was thinking for couch casual immediate fun.. not online coop games that require some adaptation.
