Finally got hold of
@OPM_UK! Was prepared
to keep buying this until I
got the Leon cover, so I’m
super happy I got it on my
first go

UK tiene mejores revistas
que España, aunque
también son más caras.

Steins; Gate is finished!
That’s 75 platinums and
just over 2400 trophies
altogether this year. I
should probably give it a
break now, phew...

@TheTattooedBear
2019 is looking killer for
#PS4 ... @OPM_UK latest
issue is proof of that

@JenVonLee
In PT, the radio at one point
practically describes the
Death Stranding trailer.
They do a lot to distract
you from listening, but if
you do... creepy.

@TROZJAN
PlayStation gettin sold to
Apple

@RocketMinx
I met my husband
through @OPM_UK’s
Facebook page and
we had a PlayStation
themed wedding in 2016.
I think that makes me

@RM_MATHESON
Erm... Joined with me! If it
wasn’t for @PlayStationUK
then we would never have
met. PlayStation brought
us together and now
keeps us gaming together

#157A celebration of
the good things coming
to us all in 2019!

No show?
I read that Sony won’t be
appearing at E3 in 2019.
This feels like a massive
let down. I love seeing the
new games and demos
that Sony brings to E3
and it just won’t feel
the same. Will there be
anything happening with
Sony in 2019?
Kieran Sullivan via email

We were a little
surprised that Sony has
chosen not to showcase
its games at E3 next
year, and there’s still
a lot to show – Ghost
Of Tsushima, Death
Stranding, and Concrete
Genie are all earmarked
for 2019. But we’d
expect there to be a

big Sony event, or two,
happening in the year to
demo these games.

Scoreful
Once upon a time, not that
long ago, you reviewed
and scored games before
they were released, giving
valuable information
to someone like myself
who does not put all his
stock in the internet,
but in recent times this
no longer happens. You
now review and score
games weeks, sometimes

months, after the game
is released. In the latest
issue (Christmas 2018)
you reviewed both
Soulcalibur 6 and Red
Dead Redemption 2 weeks
after release.
Wayne Dannatt via email

The timing of our
reviews is determined
by many factors, for
example when the code
is available or what type
of game it is. Unlike
many websites who
offer a hot take on a
game after a day of
playing we’re committed
to completing the
games we review before
offering a verdict. This
is often why a game like
Red Dead Redemption
2 will appear later. We
do sometimes review
ahead of other outlets,
including websites.
We had the exclusive
reviews of Persona
5 and Dragon Ball
FighterZ, for example.
And you may be
surprised by another
exclusive next issue.

Vita for life
Can it be true? Is Sony
stopping making the PS
Vita this year? I still love
my handheld, it goes
everywhere with me.
Can’t you convince Sony
to stick with Vita for a
little bit longer?
Sarah Osborne via email

We wish we could Sarah,
but PS Vita’s days are
numbered. That’s not to
say you can’t still buy
it, or games for it, so
enjoy the little console
while you can.

Star letter Off the chart
I understand that everything is subjective but I’m
finding it a little bit difficult to accept OPM’s judgement
that Uncharted 4 is the best game available on the
system. This seems to me to be patently ludicrous;
Uncharted 4 seems to be the absolute epitome of a
‘good game’, not spectacular, certainly not terrible,
but... just ‘good’. The shooting is ‘good’, the story
is ‘good’, the driving bits are ‘good’... it is... good.
Surely in the post Red Dead Redemption 2 world you
have to reconsider the adulation that you pour upon
Uncharted. You aren’t fooling anyone.
Jonathan Bowden via email

We reckon Uncharted 4 is much more than the sum
of its parts – which are, individually, excellent. Add
them all together and it’s one superb game.

IN THE POST RDR2 WORLD
YOU HAVE TO RECONSIDER THE
ADULATION THAT YOU POUR
UPON UNCHARTED.
