Remij 4,717 Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Pretty impressive. There was also a rumor that Insomniac games might announced a new game next week as well. Apparently there's an easter egg in Spider-man that says as much... but it could also just be a coincidence. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They are marketing the upcoming dlc pretty heavily so would be interesting to see if they want to overshadow that with a new game announcement so soon. Don't know what the easter egg you're talking about is but surely a new R&C game is in development after the last one did so well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Here's where the rumor started from: igTedPrice is his actual twitter handle, so people think that it could be an easter egg for an upcoming announcement next week. Probably just a joke from the devs, however. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Teh_Diplomat 2,054 Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 (edited) It looks fantastic from what I've seen thus far. I was actually looking at PS4's for sale locally. I might break down and get my first Playstation since PS2. And my first console since X360. Edited September 10, 2018 by Teh_Diplomat Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Definitely worth getting one now. They have reached a quality control level with exclusives that few systems (if any) have ever had. Incredible the difference between the early PS4 years and now. Plus the arguably even bigger hitters still to come (TLoU2, Death Stranding) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So for like $500 I get a console and nearly a dozen games. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Don't forget that Sony recently announced the return of Playstation Hits which is a set price of $19.99 for many of it's most popular games. More to be added over time too. https://blog.us.playstation.com/2018/06/19/introducing-playstation-hits-great-games-at-a-great-price/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TLHBO 2,170 Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 No shit. An IP people care about with all the backing and support of a playstation first party game. Should have some legs too I reckon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
