Let’s take a closer look at those games coming to PS5 and PS4 consoles next week.
Wreckfest: Drive Hard, Die Last | PS5*

Race and upgrade patched-together cars, improving their looks and toughening up their body armour to survive the epic crashes and neck-to-neck fights over the finish line in competitive races. Enjoy some hilarity in Challenge modes as you get behind the wheel of crop harvesters, three-wheelers and much more, then challenge your friends online in multiplayer up to 24 players**.
Battlefield V | PS4
Enter mankind’s greatest conflict with Battlefield V as the series goes back to its roots in a never-before-seen portrayal of World War 2. Experience all-out multiplayer** with your squad in the vast Grand Operations and the cooperative Combined Arms, or take on single player War Stories.

Stranded Deep | PS4
Test your survival skills in this open world adventure. In the aftermath of a mysterious plane crash, you are stranded in the vast expanse of the Pacific Ocean. Alone, without any means to call for help, you must do what you can to survive. Explore underwater and on land as you hunt for supplies to craft the tools, weapons, and shelter you’ll need to stay alive.

Great lineup.
Wreckfest PS5 and Battlefield V are undeniably big games and Stranded deep released on PS4 only a year ago and compliments them well. I don’t own any of these and I am personally excited.
Sure beats Games with Gold. Dungeons 3, Armello, and Tropico 4 on 360 and a Lego game from 2008.
I am truly baffled by the mouth breathing masses. It’s shocking that people are largely trashing this lineup. Propaganda is at an all-time high. People are sheep right now. I swear on Xbox announced that slop they call a lineup for Games with Gold it got a more positive reception than this. Unreal have the media and powerful corporations can shape public opinion. You don’t even have to deliver good results you just have to deliver great PR. Keep sheepin ppl. Keep fighting that bad fight. I guess the world we live in now is one that sees PlayStation not delivering and Xbox doing nothing but delivering greatness despite lying about performance and providing no games. Now battlefield 5 and Wreckfest are worse gets then something called dungeons 3 and Armello. Man, there was literally a petition when Sony gave all strategy games a year ago but when Xbox does it people eat it up. It’s wild. The Fox News of gaming. It’s a Jake Paul, TMZ world. I really need to adjust my expectations.
Honestly there’s no need to be shocked. Should be expected. People will always bad mouth something, sometimes for no reason other than just feeling like it. You can have a few amazing months and one bad and suddenly it’s like it’s the worst thing ever. Although I don’t consider these games bad by any means. I enjoyed wreckfest and I’m glad it’s getting a ps5 update. The ps4 version took a very long time to load matches. I have both Xbox Ultimate and PS Now and Plus, it’s just great to get variety even if the games may not look “great” at first. My younger self definitely would’ve been ecstatic to such easy access.
Just because you like it doesn’t mean everyone will, or that it’s good in general for that matter.
Nor when it’s better compared to Xbox. People shouldn’t be embarrassed to voice negative opinions, it’s all precious feedback.
I don’t like stranded deep as I own it and first handed seen it slow down with every thing you make to the point you feel like your in slow motion. Answer to fix it make items on multiple islands so that you don’t crash the frame rate for it loading things in.
Battlefield meh but good for some
Wreakfest is a good game and happy I don’t have to pay for upgrade now.
And I don’t really care about plus games or xbox games as in who gets what. It’s all down to personal taste and if someone says they hate the games who cares they don’t have any power to change it unless its a soccer game
Are people with a deviated septum or respiratory cancers considered naturally less intelligent or in the US? I’m sure loads of people with respiratory problems like whatever Sony pumps out too.
To be honest I’d probably take Armello or an old assed Lego game or basically anything over a boring “drink every 5 minutes” “survival” “game”. Or a copy/paste multiplayer shooter that’s probably got no one playing anymore.
What’s left is a PS4 game on PS5. Which when there’s no real reason to buy a PS5 yet (you know because there’s no proper PS5 games other than a PS3 game, 2 mini games, a massively overpriced roguelike and $96 PS4 titles) so isn’t something I can even play. Playing PS4 games slightly better isn’t really a reason to buy a new console.
Only a complete “sheep” would congratulate a company for not even providing a single full first party title for a console 6 months after it launched as some glorious achievement.
Neither company is doing great things. Don’t be ridiculous. You’d think with your respiratory health you’d know and understand better.
Yeah this lineup is definitely one of the better ones we’ve had for the past couple of months and I don’t see why people are hating on it so much
