Bring PS home to PS4.. Best thing ever!!!

zeee3852d ago

I could never understand HOME. I mean, God knows I tried. I tried my best but I just couldn't get it. I tried going back to it but then it got a bit too confusing. I think Sony should leave Home to PS3 and instead make the Sharing feature and other PS4 features work even better.

Lionalliance3852d ago

ohhh snap! Now this is a good way to use Home!

Zancruz3852d ago

Meh, I still own those games.... There's no point for me too go on some quest, It's cool for others and cool of Sony to do. But I would love an Demolition Derby remake on PS4!

TheUndertaker853852d ago

You could get the codes and redeem just in case. Doesn't hurt.

Think of it this way. If something ever happens to your discs (Not saying it would but in reality it could) then at least you'd still have the games available to you plus it'd save another purchase down the road if you ever found it justifiable.

Zancruz3852d ago

True, But honestly I can't stand to play games that far back anyway, they make my eyes bleed... lol, Call me a graphic whore IF you want. I can only play last gen games for a little while after the new gen releases, Just to catch up on games I missed. I stopped playing PS2 games 4 years ago, So in about 3 years I'll stop playing PS3 games. While I still have my classic PS1, PS2 and soon to be PS3 they sit on my shelf as great memories like photos...

P_Bomb3852d ago

Awesome! Thanks for the heads up, gonna go get the codes right now

305LoneWolf3852d ago

It would of been better if it was our choice of what 3 ps1 classics we want

All I ask for is a new Twisted Metal that allows flat screen & PSVR2 cross play that also supports a wheel.
Would be heaven.

Babadook7322d ago

Wow. I like the idea of VR twisted metal with a wheel.

Rebel_Scum322d ago

They need to get the enemy AI balance right. Thats what made 2 the best in the series. Black was abysmal in that dept.

neomahi322d ago

You don't. Do sequels. If you've gotta reboot, might as well do a new IP. God of War is the only game I can say that did a successful reboot

TiredGamer322d ago (Edited 322d ago )

Isn’t the new GoW just a sequel technically?

I personally think they can leverage the roots of the series. The original TM in 1995 took place on Christmas Eve 2005, and it was the 10th contest in history. Why not “reboot” the franchise by making a prequel of sorts showing the origin story of the series and maybe linking all the future games in a brilliant way. Seems like such an obvious idea to leverage old with the new (kind of look how Doom 2016 did with its lore).

Knightofelemia322d ago

Just make it a good game Twisted Metal has it's fan base.

PlayStation confirm they are working on Twisted Metal series

The rumours were legit. The Twisted Metal franchise is coming back, Sony
officially announced at CES 2022.

NecrumOddBoy885d ago

I hope this is camp as all hell.

bouzebbal884d ago

They should have made Destruction All star with a Twisted Metal skin as launch title.. With some more content of course.

NecrumOddBoy883d ago (Edited 883d ago )

Rumor mill is that the team used All Stars as a test bed game to make a PS5 Twisted Metal in the future. No idea why they made this though. Total miss and it could hurt them in the end. Twisted Metal is really awesome. I honestly hope they take this series the Forza Horizon route. Maybe a big open world like a destroyed city in an apocalyptic setting. Still can have arenas and races, battles etc, but also add RPG elements and quests, challenges etc.

Dirtnapstor883d ago

Agreed. I am mildly surprised they did not do a Twisted Metal iteration vs DAS. Could have easily reskinned everything, no?

sourOG884d ago

Agreed. I’m playing serious Sam now and I think it’s awful in a great way. I’m enjoying it.

Majin-vegeta885d ago

Looks like the new game is pretty much confirmed now.

Bobertt884d ago

Idk David Jaffe had said he has seen stuff about the TV show but Sony has never told him anything about a new game. I find it hard to believe they would not tell the creator of the franchise they were going to make a new game.

Army_of_Darkness883d ago

Sony owns the franchise and Jaffe is no longer associated with them anymore, so Sony doesn't have to inform him on anything really...

NapalmSanctuary882d ago

...says f2p with Lucid developing. Might wanna keep them expectations low.

isarai885d ago

I hope it follows the gameplay style of hardware rivals, seriously that game was awesome to play

Godmars290884d ago

How about having to race through a destructible city with tons of people to mow down.

burnout with rocket launchers and ability to drive on skyscraper roofs or through office floors.

DarXyde884d ago

That sounds like Carmageddon meets Warhawk.

I'm iffy on reviving Twisted Metal personally. I replayed it on PS3 via PSOne classics because I loved the originals and I must say, these titles haven't aged well. We're now two generations removed from then, which was already 1-2 generations removed from the originals.

There needs to be some serious modernization efforts for these games to do well.

Godmars290883d ago

@DarXyde:
And what would be wrong with a "Carmageddon meets Warhawk" game? Pretty much what you'd want of a PS5 version of a PS1 title.

NapalmSanctuary882d ago

@Godmars Thats not Twisted Metal. Its one thing to do something like that with an alt game mode but Twisted Metal already has an identity. The gameplay needs to stay true to it.

--Onilink--884d ago

The only thing confirmed by Sony so far was a TV series, not a game

Neonridr884d ago

that's great, looking forward to some next gen destruction!

TheDoomedGuy884d ago

Imagine how it'll feel with the dual sense.

--Onilink--884d ago

I get the feeling that most people arent really reading the article. The only thing confirmed by Sony is the TV series.

Anything about a new game is just rumors and speculation at this point
