When it comes to modern horror games that have PS1-era visuals, "less is more" rings true. Although games with cutting-edge graphics certainly have their place, some developers are going back in time to frighten their players.
Times are tough all around the world, and usually when belts are tightened, the first thing to go is entertainment. That's a sad situation, and it doesn't help that the only news about gaming these days seem to be that it's getting more and more expensive.
I love "free"—it's my favorite price. But when it comes to video games, free usually comes with a catch. There's often a hidden, and sometimes not-so-hidden, cost to games that don't make you pay upfront.
Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE) has announced that it will soon shut down its PlayStation Stars loyalty program. This ends a fairly brief attempt to reward players for playing and buying games.
Over the years, PlayStation Plus has given away some of the greatest games to ever grace Sony's platform. All it cost was to stay subscribed and check back for new offerings each month.
Ghost of Yotei, the sequel to PlayStation's hit samurai game Ghost of Tsushima, is set to release on PS5 on October 2, 2025. While the original was well-regarded, there is room for improvement. Here's what I'm hoping to see.

The increasing cost of video games has been a steady trend over many years. While we could go ahead and blame Nintendo or Microsoft for raising prices, this is something that has to happen over time. Price increases are caused by a mix of economic factors and changing consumer expectations. Fortunately, you have options to keep costs down.
One thing that really annoys me when I buy a Blu-ray or DVD is the unskippable ads or warnings that play at the start. It's just useless grind that gets between me and the content I paid for. Well, video games have their own version of this in the form of online accounts.
