The Tuesday letters page wonders if GTA 6 will feature a Hot Coffee style sex scene, as one reader tries to avoid Ocarina Of Time spoilers.
Drought to floodI get the feeling that after years of silence we’re going to be getting a lot of The Witcher news and games over the next few years, with the new DLC going straight into The Witcher 4, which is the start of a new trilogy. And then on top of that you’ve got the multiplayer spin-off and the remake of the first game, if they’re still doing those – the development on them seems a bit troubled.
You can have too much of a good thing, so I hope they know what they’re doing, but in theory I’m all for it, because I love The Witcher 3. But they’re making a new Cyberpunk 2077 at the same time as well, so while I believe they’re a big company nowadays that is a lot of games to have on the boil at once.
Weirdly, I’m most looking forward to the DLC though. For some reason I really like the idea of making new DLC for a game that’s 10 years old, as a way to transition into the new sequel. It’s such a neat idea, I don’t know why nobody else has thought of it before. If the quality is up to the previous ones (both of which were top notch) then it could be game of the year material for me.Zeiss
Familiar themesGood on Hideo Kojima for not wanting to retire, he’s looked vaguely in his late 50s for decades now and always seems enthusiastic. What I don’t get though, is why he’s always talking about having loads of things he wants to do and not enough time, but he just keeps remaking the same games again and again.
His next two are not-Metal Gear and not-Silent Hill and when he did make something original, with Death Stranding, he immediately followed that up with a sequel. For a man with such a long and famous history in the games industry he’s got very little variety in what he’s done, and I think that’s a real shame.

I’d say it’s something he’ll come to regret when he actually does retire but I’ve never heard him speak about this or wish that he’d try more different things. If he’s happy I suppose that’s more than most of us can say with our careers but to me it seems like a bit of a waste.Josh
Second remakeI’ve been thinking about the impending release of Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2. This compilation will be a great chance for anyone who never owned a PlayStation 3 to finally play Metal Gear Solid 4. I haven’t played Peace Walker, so I might consider buying this collection. Of the Metal Gears that I have played, Metal Gear Solid on the original PlayStation remains my favourite entry in the series. Instances of gameplay genius aside, the following games got a bit excessive for me, with regards to impenetrable plots and cut scenes.
OK, we got The Twin Snakes on the GameCube but if ever there was a game that merited a graphical overall it’s Solid Snake’s PlayStation debut.Michael Veal

Hit ‘em where it hurtsI don’t think the weeklong blackout of PlayStation 5 will work but I’m still taking part in it. The only thing that will change Sony’s mind is if the PlayStation 6 comes out and sales aren’t good and believe me, Sony could sell them with a £1,000 gold bar and I’ll still turn it down.
I’m not against digital games, I’m against them telling me it’s this way only. Sony only understands money, if their money drops they will start making changes and as for them trying to mock us, let’s see if they’re doing that and PlayStation 6 sales are lower than they thought they would be. Because if they are people will be mocking them.
Sony has to realise, you rub customers up the wrong way, they will just find other ways to play games, whether that’s PC or the Xbox, but they will leave them and they might not be able to win them back.David
