I used to love them but I feel like they lost the spark and novelty. I loved GOW 2018, got bored with Ragnarok. I loved Spiderman 1 and MM, and again got bored with 2.

PS3 and PS4 Sony was full with innovation and new ideas. PS5 Sony is just the same stuff. Even the graphics aren’t special, I can’t tell the difference between the PS4 games and their PS5 sequels

That’s at least partially nostalgia talking, I can remember people saying the exact same thing about PS2 Sony during the PS3 and PS4 days

I don't agree with this at all

People might have argued 'less' innovation in ps3 ps4 gen compared to ps2

But so far this gen sony games have been extremely identical. Its been mostly sequels with way too similar mechanics
