Lol talk about a photo finish.

This game looks a heck of a lot better than LBP3.

Hopefully the focus on single player makes for a better game. Seems like it does.

Some sweet upgrades. Sackboy doesn't stand out graphically but its still a surprisingly big jump from before, LBP3 looks bad.

Fast fingers

i'm still a bit worried about this title simply because sumo digital doesn't have a backlog of high quality games to solidify a reputation as a good developer...

...but this looks soo good.  i'm not getting a ps5 at launch regardless but if reviews and user feedback is at least decent i'm sooo getting this.

Key points:

PS4 games playable on PS5 consoles
The overwhelming majority of the 4,000+ PS4 games are playable on PS5 consoles.

• Select PS4 games will benefit from the PS5 console's Game Boost, which may make PS4 games run with a higher or smoother frame rate.
• Although many PS4 games are playable on PS5 consoles, some functionalities that were available on the PS4 console may not be available on PS5 consoles. In addition, some PS4 games may exhibit errors or unexpected behavior when played on PS5 consoles.

PS4 only games
While the majority of PS4 games are playable on PS5 consoles, below is a list of PS4 games that are playable on PS4 only. On PlayStation™Store, PS4 games that are not playable on the PS5 console will be marked with 'Playable on: PS4 only'.

PS4 only games:
DWVR
Afro Samurai 2 Revenge of Kuma Volume One
TT Isle of Man - Ride on the Edge 2
Just Deal With It!
Shadow Complex Remastered
Robinson: The Journey
We Sing

Yep, only 10 is even better than I was expecting. Lets hope BC errors for games that can be played are very infrequent.

Sad about Robinson the journey. That's still on my list to play at some point.

That's an awesomely small list.  no "major" games on that list either.  for me personally only shadow complex remastered matters to me and to be completely honest,..  i bought that game in 2014.  it's been over six years kitler53,.. if you haven't played it by now you probably never will.

i'll probably download shadow complex tonight..

Legend Diner is my favorite diner-based franchise, what a huge oversight from Sony.
