I still get confused by the tiers. Like which of those games are on essential vs on premium or are they all on both? Try finding which games are in which tier on the website, I have never managed, tells me to sign up for PS Plus when I have already paid for essential. Only way I can do it is on the PS5 or I think it can be done on the app Top Stuff Sony

Yeah the app is the only "simple" way of even browsing the offering and adding things to the library (outside of the console), the website/webstore is utterly useless. It's still a confusing mess though.

Isn't the only difference between the two top tiers that you get game trials and streaming games on the very top one?
The games available are on both, I thought.

The very top tier also gives you ps1/2/3/p classics and, for some reason, certain PS4 remasters of older games.

Its absolutely infurating that you cant screen out the streamable games from the game list, even if you select just PS5 as the format.

To be fair they are a bit busy counting all the money from their £70 games to fix the website

Having never needing to before I'm a little lost, I just want an offline profile for my daughter so she has her own avatar etc when playing games together (also Sackboy doesn't save her costumes etc when just using QuickPay which is annoying).
I've had to create a family account and give her her own profile (tied to my Gmail which is no bother) but now her name etc has been replaced by some stupid random online ID which means nothing to her...all very pointless.
Thought Sony would have had better options to be honest, why does a child account have to be online enabled? Any ideas?

I'll be honest, I found all that to be such a faff, I gave up and let the boy have a normal account. It just didn't work well enough.

Looks like we're finally getting the announcement of the PS Showcase today. Apparently a shitload of unannounced stuff will be shown. What are you people hoping for? I'm looking forward to finally seeing Spiderman 2 and I think they may even have Mortal Kombat 1 on there.

My left testicle in exchange for an MGS3 remake. That rumour has been around for so long now I'm not even sure if I can believe it. Would love if it was true though.

I've still got that to play.
I've finished with the right one.

It's become the Duke Nukem Forever of remakes for sure.
I keep kidding myself there's no smoke without fire.

Re the PS Showcase… to be honest, I’d just like news of something new. I like a good sequel as much as anyone, but Sony has enough studios that at least one or two must have been beavering away on some new IP.
Sucker Punch maybe? Ghost of Tsushima was released in 2020…
I’d also like to know what Bungie have been up to, besides disappointing everyone with overpriced Destiny 2 DLC.

Kind of hoping that we'll maybe get a bit more Silent Hill footage as well.
Oh, and a Bloodborne remaster, naturally.

Interested to see what Housemarque are doing next. Although it's probably too soon after the Returnal DLC for there to be anything worth showing off yet.

Just the obvious shit like Spidey, Wolverine and whatever Sucker Punch/Bluepoint etc are working on. Getting quite hyped for Mortal Kombat here too. As much as I hate DLC characters in fighting games, Peacemaker and Homelander are both ridiculously good choices for the game.

Hoping for some brand new IP to go along with all of the amazing sequels that will be announce.
And something on TloU multiplayer would be nice.

Just seen we're getting the CGI trailer as per usual this week and proper gameplay next week.

It would be nice to hear some actual reason for me to own a PS5. It is much more of a blu ray player than a game console for me (and the fact it still lacks Dolby Vision means a dedicated player would be better for me) and there is very little that I couldn't just play on my PC.
Will be good to see some Spider-Man 2. Maybe something new from Naughty Dog or from one of Sony's many other developers. Wonder what Bluepoint are working on.

Just as a guess I'm thinking we'll see Spiderman 2, Armoured Core, Death Stranding 2, Mortal Kombat 1, Last of Us 2 Factions, Twisted Metal reboot, maybe Horizon Zero Dawn remake, maybe MGS 3 remake and supposed remastered collection, Silent Hill 2 Remake, the new Team Ninja game that hasn't been announced, Sony Bend's new game and I don't know if it it's bullshit but apparently a full remake of Uncharted. A lot of fucking remakes then.

This is a total contradiction, but I'm hyped for Spider-Man 2 (the original was probably my favourite PlayStation exclusive last-gen) but would otherwise like to see less sequels and even less remakes (again, even though I've recently loved RE4R).
New stuff please, and that doesn't include the live service shenanigans Sony seems to be tooling up for of late.
More of that Rise of the Ronin wouldn't go a miss.

Unfortunately a fair few are going to be live service games.

Naughty Dog announcing a Sci-Fi game is my dream.
And a new Jak & Daxter.

Wait. We’re getting a Horizon Zero Dawn remake? What the fuck? I think it was leaked a while ago, essentially it uses the baseline graphics of Forbidden West along with some gameplay improvements.

Anyway my brain is trying to contemplate how Insomniac can outdo themselves with Spiderman 2, Wolverine and I think an unannounced multiplayer game.
