"Sigh" I really like this game.But I can still playing this game offline. Sony Japan Studio do made some really good games and have unique art style, but the sale is never enough.

Gazondaily3163d ago (Edited 3163d ago )

Hmm...does this even have a large userbase online?

bouzebbal3163d ago

smh...

no, and that's not the point.
the online mode is dynamically fitted into the world and you can review people's pictures to get dusty tokens.
nothing that will punish the future owners of this great game!

Gazondaily3162d ago

I didn't mean it as a slight on it. GR2 looks good and I intend to play it.

TheUndertaker853162d ago (Edited 3162d ago )

@bouzebbal: I'd imagine that is the point. Otherwise the servers wouldn't be shutting down if the game had a larger userbase online.

Deep-throat3162d ago

Sony couldn't support GR2 with its simplistic online features for a few years? Then why people pay to play online? What's the point of PS+?

Did you know that people still play old MP games on the 360? Games like Gears of War 1, CoD2, Rainbow Six Vegas 1...

Enjoy being a loyalist bro!

Mr-Dude3163d ago (Edited 3163d ago )

What! Boooh! Really Sony, dick move. Treasure hunts are cool!

AspiringProGenji3163d ago

I'm guessing it doesn't have that many concurrent players anymore. I'm glad I got to experience the online portion of this game. Treasure hunts, sharing and rating photos were really fun. I will replay this game before the servers go off

rainslacker3162d ago

Is the platinum tied to the servers? I haven't gotten to GR2 yet, but might start it next if I have to participate in the online stuff to get a few trophies.

AspiringProGenji3162d ago

I don't remember any trophy being tied to the servers honestly. You should be good

rainslacker3162d ago

Sounds good. Will double check though once I muddle my way through all these KH trophies I'm working on.:)

Palitera3163d ago

Yeah, I hope they try to make a flop sequel, so they can know the real price of such a disrespectful decision.

1Victor3162d ago

At least Sony respect the wishes of it fan base now where is conker, cameo, Alan wake, killer instinct, and soon to be sea of ..,....never mind go back to troll pre-school you fail the entrance exam palitera

Palitera3162d ago

I own a X1 and a PS4. It's over 6 months since I turned my X1 on and I prefer the Sony console by far.
Just so you know how ridiculous you are.

BTW, what does MS has to do with this? Sheep.

solderman3163d ago (Edited 3163d ago )

Remind me again why we are paying PS+ again? Which has also increased in price. It sure as hell wasn't for games to shut down their online server a year later.

Genuine-User3163d ago

You answered your own question.

Erik73573163d ago

I think they should allow the online portion to atleast go on until the end of the cycle

This about as dumb as me asking why idiots pay for live when first party games keep getting cancelled

Scatpants3162d ago

I think it's so they can play online on their Xboxes. Not sure why you have to ask that. If you play on console and want to play multiplayer you pretty much have to.

Nyxus3163d ago

Are there any trophies tied to the online?

Nyxus3163d ago

Alright, thanks! Still need to pick this game up but there are so many good games coming out...

Teflon023162d ago

Online is nothing really but just bonus hide and seek using pictures type thing. 8 have and amassed 10k dusty tokens in may or so and honestly, it definitely added a few hours for me since I needed like 5k to get all costumes (2 are from getting a certain amount of dusty tokens). But if they just simply update it to where you just need gr1 to get them or auto unlock, then it makes no difference. Basically the online is almost non existent. Past seeing pictures ppl post and pictures for hide and seek lol

Underrated PlayStation JRPG Gem Goes 50% Off In New Sale

Gravity Rush 2, a highly rated PlayStation exclusive, is currently available to purchase at $9.99 on the official PS Store.

OtterX820d ago

Gravity Rush would be an amazing series to be reborn on PSVR2. (sure to make the motion sick squeamish! haha) Anyone who has never played them should pick these games up though, they were really fun, unique/wild gameplay w a lot of style. My only complaint is the Part 2 has a really slow start, but it picks up.

shinoff2183820d ago

I remember when part 2 came out. Part 1 physical copy worth went through the roof.

OtterX820d ago

Nice. I still have have my Gravity Rush physical copy for Vita, but I only owned Remastered + 2 digitally. Wish I had gone physical though.

jznrpg820d ago

I own all of the games physically for Vita and PS4.

Inverno820d ago

Gravity Rush in VR would most likely kill someone lolz. GR2 and the first Mirrors Edge are the only games I've played where I've gotten horrible motion sickness but just couldn't stop playing em. Really hope that motion capture clip really is a movie cause the series deserves more attention.

OtterX820d ago

Ha, yea it would be a bit like Sairento VR (constant 1st person flipping combat), mixed with Detached VR (360 space thrusters) with all comfort settings off, if you've ever played either of those! XD

Eidolon819d ago

GR1/2 would need quite the overhaul to work in VR. If they do make one from the ground up it definitely would work and couldn't be as motionly crazy as some games I've played on the Quest 2, like that Grapple game.

jznrpg820d ago

Loved the first one Vita and second on PS4. Most VR games I’m fine but the nature of Gravity Rush I am not sure I could handle it or not as it may make me feel sick to my stomach. I’d give it a try at least

GoodGuy09820d ago

Gravity rush 1 I really enjoyed but for some odd reason I couldn't as much with the sequel. It was a good game but the controls were very clunky and a game like that just really needs a higher framerate with how precise you need to be. Also everyone is for some reason just absolutely rude towards Kat which got me too annoyed lol.

The visuals and art style were amazing though. If they were to ever make a sequel, you fix these problems, then GR would be great games.

blackblades820d ago (Edited 820d ago )

I enjoyed and play the 1st one on vita, i enjoyed there. Then I played the remaster with dlc when it came out. Gravity rush 2 I bought long time ago on ps4 but never got into it. I didnt even make it to 1st quarter of it. Its just what it is, I'll try to get back on to it sooner or later.

Rebel_Scum820d ago

More an adventure game than a JRPG tbh

jznrpg820d ago

Second game felt more rpgish but I agree they are more adventure than rpg

Eidolon819d ago

Adventure games are more narrative. Life is Strange, etc... This is Action-Adventure, can even say slightly plaformer, some RPG elements, but of course they will call it JRPG(buzz word) to sell.

DefaultComment820d ago

Gravity rush should be on PC by now. At least that will get tose numbers to raise a little.

DarXyde820d ago

The stupidity of exputer calling Gravity Rush 2 a JRPG aside...If y'all haven't bought the game yet, please do. It's such a great, charming game.

I have been absolutely gutted at the idea that there won't be a Gravity Rush 3, and I genuinely hope people give it a fair shake.

Even After 7 Years, Gravity Rush 2 Is A Beautiful Game That Deserves PC Exposure

It's been 7 years since the mystifying Gravity Rush 2; if Sony plans to put obscure exclusives on PC, it's the very definition of underrated.

Skuletor847d ago

A Gravity Rush 2 port would be cool but I'm not sure how many people will be interested in buying a sequel to a game they haven't played before, though it worked for The Uncharted Legacy Collection so who knows? A Bloodborne port should definitely happen first though, the fact the game never even got a PS4 Pro patch is suspicious.
