One of the big perks of the new tiered PlayStation Plus subscription service is emulation-based support for older games like the PS1 and PSP. But you don't necessarily need to pay a subscription service to play some older games. According to new details released today, if you own those games digitally, you can play them on PS4 and PS5 without paying the Plus subscription fee.

"Some of the titles will also be available for individual purchase." Sony didn't detail a full list of games, or which ones will be available for individual purchase.

The revised … [Read more...] about New PS Plus Will Let You Play PSP And Original PlayStation Games You Digitally Own Without Subscription

When Disney Dreamlight Valley was announced , I found its intersecting parts of Disney, the farm-life sim genre, and a free-to-play model to be exciting. With a fair in-game economy and gameplay that keep genre fans coming back, the Animal Crossing-like could have the potential to become a hit with players of all ages--but that microtransaction question loomed large. After spending an hour with the Gameloft development team and checking out a hands-off demo, I'm heartened to have seen a pay model without uncomfortable caveats, making me more confident Dreamlight Valley will be well populated by fans of the genre and brand alike. On the surface, Dreamlight Valley appears to be your typical farm-life sim--even its name seems determined to recall imagery of Stardew Valley, one of the genre's most beloved games. I arrived to my demo wanting to find out if this other valley could provide a similar mix of relaxing gameplay mechanics such as farming, mining, and socializing. It does … [Read more...] about Disney Dreamlight Valley Is More Than Animal Crossing In Mickey Mouse Ears

Insomniac Games will reportedly donate $50,000 to abortion nonprofit WRRAP following internal debate at Sony, which is now said to be matching the studio's donation and additionally working to financially support employees who may be forced to travel for reproductive care. That's according to a new report from The Washington Post , which cites an email sent by Insomniac CEO Ted Price following a separate email from PlayStation president Jim Ryan. Last week, Bloomberg reported that Ryan had urged employees to "respect differences of opinion" on the leaked opinion from the US Supreme Court regarding abortion precedent Roe v. Wade. The content and tone of the email, particularly a flippant sign-off from Ryan relaying carefree stories about his pets, are said to have angered many employees. In his email, Price notes that Ryan's directive prompted a "near-60 page" letter sent from Insomniac to PlayStation Studios head Hermen Hulst, collecting statements calling … [Read more...] about Sony will match Insomniac’s $50,000 donation to abortion non-profit
