Most cinematic game you’ve played?

Played SoTC on PS2 which was a great game, wish the remake would come to PC.

Have you tried 'The last Guardian' on PS4?

Definitely Uncharted 4 for me. There are numerous sequences in that game that would look right at home in a Hollywood blockbuster.

Metal Gear Solid 4. Very cinematic.

Witcher 3, particularly the expansion with Toussaint, is pretty beautiful.

TLoU 1.

And going back a few years, MGS on the PS1 - the opening was like a Bond movie. Submarine, stealth attack, soundtrack etc with the game credits rolling over it.

Soul Reaver on Dreamcast is a good memory for me. Also Resident Evil Remake on GameCube. Looked amazing on a 32" CRT.

1st party Playstation games fit this description. For me, some of the sequences in God of War 2018 were perhaps the best example. Remake of TLOU 1, Ghost of Tsushima and Death Stranding up there too.

Oh man now you're bringing back memories. I had Max Payne 2 on Xbox and it made my mates PS2 copy look terrible. Great game regardless. What about Splinter Cell? I have an OG Xbox copy of Double Agent which is supposed to be a totally different game to the 360 one?

Nope that’s also on my list!

So good. Better I think.

Too bad the only way to play it at 60fps is to have the disc version and not let it update:/

Unless there's been a new patch I'm not aware of.

May be me but I own it digital and it seemed fine playing it on the PS5. Was early days though so maybe I wasn’t as sensitive to 30 then as I am now.

Reading up a little and it seems there was a PS4 Pro version and the PS5 picks up on that and it is locked at 30 which is maybe why I was ok with it as it was all over the shop on the OG PS4. Might see if I can find the old disk version as it would be glorious at 60 un-patched. Such an ambitious title.

I remember playing through the first Mass Effect game thinking I was in my own personal movie, especially towards the end when the stakes raised.
Tempting now to play through it again!

Yeah, it's locked 30fps because it runs the Pro version (which wasn’t entirely consistent either but is on the PS5), PS4 was all over the place.

If you run the disc version unpatched it apparently runs at 60fps but I'm not sure if it's problem-free.

Pong or Snake.

TLOU 1/2 especially 2! MGS4 is definitely up there though!
