1:28:07 the sound design for Killzone was on point and added a lot to the atmosphere of that game. To this day I still use the headshot chirp sound fx as my default notification for my phone. And still get feels from it whenever I get a message.
Damn. Here is Jon. All hyped.. bout to prrsrnt his new idea. Made an account everything. just to be brought down. As if he didnt think it through.. oh wait. .. Bless his heart. Anyway id stil watch. And the name is Platinum Pursuit.
Just a little bit correction, Spiderman 2018 actually didn't have dynamic time of day during mission or free roaming. It changes time of day between missions which imo is pretty clever. Still, puddle gate was one of the worst controversy around a game's graphics ever. Even if the game was intended to save some performance by reducing screen space reflection area from some specific angle, the change to that is wayyyyy too overblown online.
1:16:12 here in the UK all Lego (no 's) sets have a QR code for the Lego instructions app at least the recent ones that I've brought for my son do. They usually also come with paper instructions as well. The app is by far better because it's 3D and you can rotate the bricks to see where the pieces go. Ryan be like: "how do you do that for kids..." Kids be like: "ok boomer sit down and rest your back. I'll stream the 'how to' to the TV via my mobile whilst I use the app to build the Lego set." Welcome to the all digital future guys 😂😂
I respect John's opinion so much when it comes to hardware. I used to do electronic repairs and consoles were both fun and a pain. The fact he used to reball them is crazy
Good luck! I got the plat on X and X2 a while ago, and X has a crazy grind. Not as long as rebirth, that took me 200 hours, but it's long. It is significantly easier then rebirth, so that's a bonus
The bit about lego pitching horizon game to sony is interesting, cause the word on the grapevine said it wasn't even suppose to be their next game. They were supposedly working on a Disney lego title (like lego incredibles), but that fell through. So that's why they went with lego horizons and the re-release of lego harry potter on ps5
2:18:36 you should do a knockout round elimination of PlayStation devices startup sounds across multiple surveys that way you'll be able to poll more then 4 options.
I don't think it's horizon specific, even though people are using it as the catalyst. It's more an open world fatigue. Personally, I enjoyed the first horizon, but the second one really dragged on. The mecha is were significantly better then the first game, but the game itself, it dragged.
I was thinking the same thing. There's only been two mainline games and two spinoff. One of the spinoffs is on a VR headset that most PS5 owners didn't even buy, so who are these people that are seemingly playing
Enslaved is a good game. I got the Platinum about 4 years ago during the pandemic. The worst part is collecting all orbs because the game only gives a general idea of how many are missing and you have to follow a guide to know where they are.
Enslaved also has weird plot similarities with "The Last of Us": a rough guy begrudgingly partners up with a young girl on a trip to the west across post apocalyptic America, gets help with transportation from a weirdo that lives alone surrounded by traps and when they get to the destination they don't find anyone so they have to keep going west...
Digital vs physical is interesting to track because I guess we have no idea how many people play a disc. I only buy disc games used, then I sell them after. So every disc I touch is being played by at least 3 people. So yes digital purchases are more or at least rising against physical. But in terms of people actually playing games, I’m sure more people are actually playing physical games from the used market. It’s still the cheapest way to play games by far as long as they’re available. I bought dead space for 35$, played it and sold it for $40 a week later. Can’t beat that. I think this is the real reason they’re pushing for digital. They want each person who plays the game to pay for it. Think about how much they’re losing from people like me.
42:57 I've got a disc based PS5 but mainly use digital downloads for convenience. With game sharing I can let my son play on a game whilst I also play on the same game. You can't do that with a disc based game. I still do but very rarely buy a PS5 disc based games. The disc is mainly used for my older PS4 discs. My prediction is that Sony will bring out a PS6 with an add on disc drive like the slim PS5 models. However the drive will be for older PS5 & PS4 games as I would imagine Sony will encourage developers to stop making physical releases and all PS6 games will be digital except for some edge case outliers. However for contrast and more context I own a slim PS3 (my OG piano top fat PS3 ylod a long while back). And I still buy games for it although at this point not retail mainly second hand through eBay.
If this platinum challenge-thing is time limited to, let's say 2 weeks, you can call it "Concording trophies" or "Firewalking to the Platinum" 🤣 or some shit like that
I glanced Activity Cards at first and immediately realized it would take some of the fun out of gaming if I used them. I don’t want to be told something takes “X amount of minutes to finish” for every task I need to complete. That makes it feel more like a job/checklist scenario. Not a fun gaming experience.
I think the culture of Guerilla games has been changed with horizon. They probably replaced a lot of the team that were behind killzone. Guerilla will probably be doing horizon for at least another 10 years. Sony still hasn't had a first person exclusive since shadow fall on ps4 launch
@AkiraYanky true, i forced myself to platinum horizon 1 but still didn't really like it. It was average to me. Horizon 2, i just gave up. Repetitive and boring story. Killzone was far better but i would hope guerrilla could split and the other half that were passionate about killzone to continue it
The Hell Divers 2 hypothetical still doesn't make sense with MS admitting defeat. It's better for PS to incentivize xbox players to come to PS5, especially those who are still on xbox one, where you get exclusives like Hell Divers 2 plus access to xbox games franchises they went to xbox for. Helping your competitor keep their players by giving access to your games doesn't help PS.
That digital Vs physical split is pure bs. You need to understand people buy their disc games second hand or share with friends. That's why version console with disc are selling better, but game sale numbers doesn't show it.
Congrats on the double digit Spawn and Ryan. Always enjoy the podcast. Also not sure what to call the new Platinum segment. Best I got is Can you Platinum? Hunting for the Platinum Play to Plat Platinum-able? Clicking for Platinum Hunting Trophies Going for the Plat Bronze to Platinum Platinum Hunting
Submitting 'the platinum frond' for the name...bobs burgers rules ... Im gonna try and get my first ever platunum in horizon zero dawn remastered. I didn't really care about them but itll be a reason to play again with the upgrade
Rest in Hell. Edit: feel sorry for the folks there who weren't trying to antagonize anyone, and were just doing as they were told. But the rest, screw 'em.
Idk if this answers your question, but when I Platinum a game, I generally pick it based on "I just rolled credits in this game and I want more out of it"
The only series I've ever really gone deep into was resident evil and wolfenstein. I'm at 107 platinums right now, and I have like 8 RE plats, and wolfenstein old blood, the new collosus, and the other one that wasn't the BJ daughters. I usually just go for what looks like fun, or a challenge.
@@thecasualcanuck4590oh nice yeah I meant like I’m buying yakuza 0 and until 8 I’m not gonna play anything else until I get the platinums things like that etc
@@Mrjamjams66oh alright yeah I tend to just platinum everything I play I do save a trophy or 2 to make it look nice on my list sometimes though 😅 the way it was setup now kinda sucks I would like an alphabetical option or something to sort through all of the vs last time played
After what happened with Concord Sony has to wonder Bungie could be a mistake as well. Can they honestly feel throwing more money at Live Service is worth the risk. Or should they go back to their roots. That's what Ubisoft is saying, go back to their 2010's.
Why does it seem like sony doesn't want to port Demon's souls and/ Bloodborne to pc . With the popularity of Elden Ring you think they would want to take advantage of that hype.
Enslaved was one of those games that I liked, but for reason I just stopped playing halfway through. Like something just switch off but I can't tell what was it
Game journalists are all wrong about going day and date. There's a reason walled gardens do well, you have to give customers an advantage over the competition, not give away that advantage to PC casuals that almost never buy single player games. It's a waste of resources. Where's my Spiderman 2 dlc that I paid for in the deluxe ed? Did it go on a PC port? I'm seriously considering quitting games if that b.s. continues.
Man, SONY really shouldn't have worked with Arrowhead... Yes, they did a great job with Helldivers 2, but their PR and how they are acting is just insufferable and very damaging... Heck SONY might even be able to sue them for "Breach of Contract" for removing the PSN Requirements for Helldivers 2 on launch...
Killzone and Resistance need to make a comeback. There’s a market for FPS games that needs to be filled. Both of those games with modern gameplay mechanics and mass multiplayer have so much potential. The Helghast and the Chimera are extremely interesting adversaries. At the very least remaster or remake the old games and gage the market on those series. It’s safe with lower risk and higher reward. Especially since they are established IPs that are proven sellers.
The PS5 was just widely available last year; why the hell would there be a steeper discount if it was so hard to find for almost 3 years. Same thing with no games for it. I am happy cause it was hard to get. Makes no sense to make a $300 million game for so few people. Cross-gen will get worse next gen.
No it wont. The pro is already trying to force you to go digital by removing the disk drive and charging another 60$. Ps6 will be all digital. Im done after ps5. Sony can get f*cking bent.😒
God spawnwwave ideas are so dumb .. Why the fuck would Ryan wanna platnium on a different account when he has his own specifically for platinums ? Lol Jesus dude
Does anybody really care about Killzone? The game always looked incredible, had some decent single player moments but just seemed so damn generic. This was supposed to compete with Halo but can’t even lick halo’s boot. Even all the shitty Halos that came out after Bungie even. Resistance was a much better series for the PlayStation platform.
I submit the “Platinum Pursuit” for the name of the new section.
Best suggestion so far (no offense, other suggestions)
I concur i like this one
@@Mrjamjams66I’m offended
I was going to say the same. It just rolls well.
Perfect
1:28:07 the sound design for Killzone was on point and added a lot to the atmosphere of that game. To this day I still use the headshot chirp sound fx as my default notification for my phone. And still get feels from it whenever I get a message.
The suffering by the way Ryan looks like in the 30 platinum videos
Damn. Here is Jon. All hyped.. bout to prrsrnt his new idea. Made an account everything. just to be brought down. As if he didnt think it through.. oh wait. ..
Bless his heart.
Anyway id stil watch.
And the name is Platinum Pursuit.

Really digging this show. I needed a good PS podcast.
Its so refreshing
Last stand media's "Sacred symbols" covers PlayStation as well.
Name proposal for the new section: (The) Road to Platinum.

I recently got platinum for FF7 Remake, Stranger of Paradise and original FF7, now I'm working on FFX.😅
FF7 Rebirth wasn't an easy platinum. I played like 150 hours tried a couple of those Hard morde VR fights and was like "nope" lol
@barnuner I can't wait to play Rebirth, got the game already, but I'm waiting to play it on a Pro, and then it's the first game I'm launching on it.
Good luck! I got the plat on X and X2 a while ago, and X has a crazy grind. Not as long as rebirth, that took me 200 hours, but it's long. It is significantly easier then rebirth, so that's a bonus
Clappin'em Platinums
“Jak 2…”
“Wut” 😂😂😂
Name could be “The path to Platinum”
Thank you guys for the timestamp
hopefully nixxes does do some ps3 Remasters, Infamous and Killzone would be great
I see mystic i then watch
Slapped like button is just only for Enslaved
These podcasts are so entertaining. Thank you fellas 🙏 👌
I voted PS4 solely because I want Jon to platinum Bloodborne

It's the 10th episode anniversary, congrats gentlemen!
There’s literally been only 2 Horizon games and a Lego spinoff game. What Horizon fatigue is there honestly? It just people complaining to complain.
I don't think it's horizon specific, even though people are using it as the catalyst. It's more an open world fatigue. Personally, I enjoyed the first horizon, but the second one really dragged on. The mecha is were significantly better then the first game, but the game itself, it dragged.
I was thinking the same thing. There's only been two mainline games and two spinoff. One of the spinoffs is on a VR headset that most PS5 owners didn't even buy, so who are these people that are seemingly playing

How many microwaved coffees will it take to platinum enslaved?

As good as the horizon games are I’m really sick of them tbh and would love killzone to comeback, but then again money talks.
@AkiraYanky true, i forced myself to platinum horizon 1 but still didn't really like it. It was average to me. Horizon 2, i just gave up. Repetitive and boring story.
Killzone was far better but i would hope guerrilla could split and the other half that were passionate about killzone to continue it
Showcase smaller games in the what I wanna call it “Beyond the Platinum” where you talk about the experience to get to the platinum
doesn't get clicks. these guys don't even know about smaller games until they blow up
The Hell Divers 2 hypothetical still doesn't make sense with MS admitting defeat. It's better for PS to incentivize xbox players to come to PS5, especially those who are still on xbox one, where you get exclusives like Hell Divers 2 plus access to xbox games franchises they went to xbox for. Helping your competitor keep their players by giving access to your games doesn't help PS.
Horizon sales could just be a game people simply want in their library rather than a game they want to play.
That digital Vs physical split is pure bs. You need to understand people buy their disc games second hand or share with friends. That's why version console with disc are selling better, but game sale numbers doesn't show it.
The only time I went to Black Friday was back in 2015 for the PS4 bundled with GTA V and TLOU :D
You should set up a poll with a list of game and let the community choose.
Congrats on the double digit Spawn and Ryan. Always enjoy the podcast.
Also not sure what to call the new Platinum segment. Best I got is
Can you Platinum?
Hunting for the Platinum
Play to Plat
Platinum-able?
Clicking for Platinum
Hunting Trophies
Going for the Plat
Bronze to Platinum
Platinum Hunting
I see Click R3, I click quickly
from the widely-acclaimed hit single by 50 Cent "Click R3 (Quickly Now)" ft. R. Kelly
Platinum the game on ps3 while playing remotely on a vita
There's only two PS3 games that remote play, God of War Collection and Sly Collection.
My bad, thanks for that
@derpburger no prob!
I checked my Stars during the show and I have the option for $5 or $10 store credit
Keep up the awesome podcast boiis
I think Ryan was bothered that John was trying to do a similar video type as his video for the platinums.
did Ubisoft ever tell Sony the definition of insanity.
Submitting 'the platinum frond' for the name...bobs burgers rules ... Im gonna try and get my first ever platunum in horizon zero dawn remastered. I didn't really care about them but itll be a reason to play again with the upgrade
Yes.. i think those Mario LEGO sets don't have paper.. it's all on the app.
6:38 good luck playing that slideshow! I think it runs at 17fps. Unplayable for me. You should try to platinum Blur!
John has such an...... interesting speach cadence. Where is he from?
Sarcasmville, NE.
Maryland, USA
Any battle Royale genre game cosmetic are included in as a bundle to sell a console?
Honestly I still don’t even know what an activity card is. I just wanna play games and rest mode works great to suspend my game.
Name suggestion: Johnny Platinumhand
😂
Not only Spider-Man didn't look worse, but it looked better in some aspects.
Put on sunglasses and call yourself Jon Platinum
I have Enslaved in my collection and looking forward to playing it, looks really good. Quite similar to last of us in a lot of ways
Rip Concord
Rest in Hell.
Edit: feel sorry for the folks there who weren't trying to antagonize anyone, and were just doing as they were told. But the rest, screw 'em.
Trophy Tour
keep it simple and just call the new segment thing "Trophy/Spawn Hunter"
Enslaved plat is easy except collectibles cant be tracked and are super missable
Maybe Sony can transfer the Killzone IP over to Bungie.
Pls share the QR code for the platinum account so we can track your progress 😊
Plattack!
How about “Multi-Plat” for the new series?
Platinum Wave
Does anyone that trophy hunt get your platinums by series ? Or ps5 and ps4 cross gen games
Idk if this answers your question, but when I Platinum a game, I generally pick it based on "I just rolled credits in this game and I want more out of it"

Unless Xbox pays up front for Helldivers II and included it into Game Pass, i can't see how PS could benefit from that
Why does it seem like sony doesn't want to port Demon's souls and/ Bloodborne to pc . With the popularity of Elden Ring you think they would want to take advantage of that hype.
I call it the "Platinum Pansy" because he's been so allergic to getting platinum trophies ever.

Enslaved is pish for all the trophies - a weejends work at most
I'll admit I don't care for killzone much. (I was more into Cod during killzone's Heyday). But I care for horizon even less.

I buy only physical games
Embarassing si asking for IP that are done
Game hub and car to the most useless features rather have customization of the UI than game hub
Ryan came off passive aggressive and annoyed the first ten minutes of this Podcast. Or is it just me?
Hair plugs hair plugs and you take it easy.
The platinum section was kinda boring fwiw. Would not recommend continuing it.
Physical is better ps6 will have disk drive
No it wont. The pro is already trying to force you to go digital by removing the disk drive and charging another 60$. Ps6 will be all digital. Im done after ps5. Sony can get f*cking bent.😒
God spawnwwave ideas are so dumb .. Why the fuck would Ryan wanna platnium on a different account when he has his own specifically for platinums ? Lol Jesus dude
I think it’s time to stop talking about how no one likes horizon. I’m as tired of hearing it as Ryan seems to be.
