Gamer's Corner: Our Best Guess At Sony's Five Free Games

Gamer's Corner writes; "Eventually, Sony's Playstation Network will resume. If we're lucky we'll see that day sometime in the next few weeks. It's already old news that Sony will be offering it's loyal customers a free selection of two games from a pool of five. To date, Sony have not announced what those games will be. Clearly they'll be existing downloadable titles, we think they'll come from a mixture of genres and price points. To keep everyone happy we're expecting a full priced retail game, a mid priced pairing and a couple of golden oldies that satisfy the 'cheap and cheerful' moniker. We're not expecting any minis in the bunch, that would just be an insult after all of these weeks."

I highly doubt it will be anything already released on PS+...

just sayin

terrordactyl4776d ago (Edited 4776d ago )

Seriously? You're expecting 5 new free games (none PS+). That would be very unlikely, in my opinion of course.

terrordactyl4776d ago

That would be amazing wouldn't it. A bit too much to dream for though?

LOGICWINS4776d ago

Warhawk on the other hand, WOULD make sense.

GamerSciz4776d ago

How about they give everyone Infamous just in time for Infamous 2 to be released. Infamous is $30 on PSN store.

terrordactyl4776d ago

Infamous and Warhawk... nicely timed for Infamous 2 and Starhawk. Has to be a good marketing ploy.

Parapraxis4776d ago

...I already have inFamous though.

LOGICWINS4776d ago

Download the copy Sony gives you and sell the one you have now for 6 bux and buy yourself a whopper and a shake at Burger King.

Sony
They only do free meals.

DanSolo4776d ago

To be honest I think it would be quite a good strategic move for Sony to have a couple of free games that are updated every now and then, and have tournaments and HOME integration.

And I don't mean because of the PSN thing.... I mean as a selling point in general, a community builder, and a bridge to HOME.

Like for example.... Warhawk and Wipeout, imagine every one on PSN having access to them, and having a decent Clan system and Tournament structure in place...
And the various other things you could build around that to help forge more of an online community that had some sort of focal point around an area in HOME (but that wasn't necessary).

Obviously it would have to be set up in such a way that it wasn't going to detract from game sales as that would be counter-productive... but something that was alot of fun, brought people together in some sense, and that people could dip in and out of when they felt like it.

A game such as Little Big Planet has all the ingredients for something like that too...

frelyler4776d ago

Infamous is a safe bet, why else would Best Buy sell it for only $10 now anyways.

jack_burt0n4776d ago

Might stop a few ppl buying the second on launch tho, because they will be busy playing the first game.

Anyway would be a good deal because the game was a masterpiece.

No mention of fixing the audio issues the dialogue audio is too low this has been reported many times on social media the volume has to be turned up and music has to be lowered to hear the characters properly :(

Babadook73d ago

I have a question as someone who is considering buying the game soon. Is this a fixable issue? Can you just lower the volume for music and sound effects and keep dialog at default?

shadowT3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

yes, it is no issue at all. Just go into settings. Do you have already played the first Remake or the OG?

M3talDiamond3d ago

There are a few youtube videos and reddit tips with some tips on fixing the sound issues but sadly they didnt work for me

M3talDiamond3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

@Babadook7 There are a few videos on youtube with tips on how to fix the dialogue audio this but sadly they didnt work for me. There is an option to lower the music and sfx and keep the dialogue audio at 10 but you have to keep the volume up high (well for my TV I do) but when you are in battles and cutscenes the audio is higher so you have to adjust the audio again.
@shadowT The audio issues doesnt affect everyone there are some people on reddit complaining about the audio and there are other people saying they dont have any issues at all. I think it depends on the TV I have a Samsung QLED 4K and FF7 Rebirth is the only game I have audio issues with.

Babadook73d ago (Edited 3d ago )

Thanks for the answers all.

@Shadow yeah I have the Remake and finished it and loved it (loved the OG also back in the day). My understanding is this is even better than Remake.

The way it was handled was so dumb. One shots in melee...your teammates are to ostupid to get away from its attack. So you most often end up alone in a certain fight.

Hofstaderman34d ago

Two words, one accessory....Safety Bit

MeteorPanda34d ago

Needing an accessory to keep a.i from dying and only one of them isnt great.

Not a single Reistance? Fuck this article.

mastershredder57d ago (Edited 57d ago )

Starhawk over Warhawk?...... Dude, NO ONE should listen to you.

Odd choices for "best" more like you settled as these being the "best" that available to you at the time, cause a lot of these blow or were average to poor performers that ended up in bargain bin.

Missing too many great sci-fi titles here. The Void, The Resistance Series, Killzone 2 and 3, Enslaved, man.. there were so many, this is redicu-list.

FreeckyCake57d ago

Nobody should listen to you either with that attitude.

OtterX57d ago

I agree that Starhawk shouldn't be above Warhawk, however I must say that Starhawk multiplayer was incredible for its time! Many people wrote it off bc the single player was quite terrible, bc it was basically 1 huge tutorial for the multiplayer. But I can tell you never spent any significant amount of time in MP. It was doing incredibly tense base building w air, foot and land vehicle (and mech!) combat long before Fortnite was ever a thing.

I bet it would have been much better received if it had just ditched the story mode all together. So many people like yourself completely wrote it off based on reviews by reviewers that let the criticism of single player weigh heavily on their scores. I bet you didn't even play it.

Friendlygamer57d ago

The riddick games are some of the best stealth titles ever, highly underrated

YourMommySpoils57d ago

What games? All recall plating was Escape from Butcher Bay.

Friendlygamer57d ago (Edited 57d ago )

There's also the less acclaimed 'assault on dark Athena'

( also, not saying this to you specifically but there's both resistance and killzone games on the list, it's amazing how even something so simple and innocent as a game list can be turned into misinformed vitriol here lol )

jznrpg57d ago

Glad to see Resonance of Fate. Enslaved was pretty good too. I’m sure there are others nobody has listed but I’m too tired to try and think of anything
