I thought the SSD changed the way how games are installed. But I noticed that the copying feature is back when updating Spiderman (PS5 version)
It can do I believe, as not everything has to be in sequence on the drive now, so new files can just be tacked on was the general idea. But you may find that games still make a copy of the whole structure to ensure no file corruption, or if a lot of different files are updated for stability reasons.
@carlos82 Thanks. Though I'm a bit worried about playing it now after what I said in the edit of my previous post. I had to force the console to power down as no input did anything, then I got this screen.
I’ve got SM:MM sitting on my ps5, but I’m not touching it until it and the OS get some patches. And that’s fine, because a bunch of stuff just went on sale, so now I have FF7, Ghost of Tsushima, TLoU2 and THPS1+2 to play while I wait.
Hopefully by the time I’m done with those SM:MM will be stable, and Demon’s Souls will be on sale.
After playing the amazing Miles Morales on PS5, I decided to continue playing Kingdom Hearts series via backwards compatibility. It's so great to be able to keep my existing library on PS5!
I did run into one issue, though - DualSense vibration is NOT working for KH. I'm not sure if this is specific to KH or if it's a general BC problem... Can anyone confirm?
I honestly don't think I'll be able to get a PS5 till they sell them in stores. The last round in the US sold out in less than a minute. You can't beat bots. So frustrating...
@Splat I feel the same. Buying one online seems to be completely hopeless. I'm hoping that Sony will shed some light after New Years as to when they might be in stores. They can't delay them forever due to Covid out of fear of crowds, because no matter when they do become available, people are going to line up for them. That will happen in the Summer the same as it would in January.
@Splat@Unlucky13 Yeah, I completely slept through the Wal-Mart restock tonight. After making plans to bombard the site all week, I was all ready to go at 8:45PM before the 9:00 drop and then dozed off. Woke up an hour later. I think the universe of telling me something... Like maybe just forget about the PS5 😅.

Well I'm going to have to give in and get an external drive for my PS4 games. It doesn't help when so much data is hidden under "other" from PS4 games in particular. I had FFVII remake installed at 90gb and upon deleting another 18gb was removed from this mysterious other.
On a brighter note I did finish Miles Morales and its a great game, loved the story, gameplay was very fun. Its effectively dlc for the first game, which isn't a bad thing in that it really does continue that story and feels like a natural progression in that world but it is fairly short as a result. I'd recommend playing it in fidelity mode as many of the environments were very clearly designed with ray tracing in mind.
Just picked up Demon's Souls so wish me luck
Older than I care to remember but have been gaming since owning a wooden Atari 2600 and played pretty much everything inbetween.
I've not seen anything from Sony yet, but IGN quotes one of the bosses at Microsoft as saying that they hope that supply can meet demand for the XBOX next gen system starting around April. Given that the PS5 is more popular, we probably have a longer wait than that, sadly.
Holy crap, just got a PS5. Yes, I know, I know, don’t buy on eBay but the dude was selling it with that buy it now thing for £450 + £20 postage. I’m gonna say that £20 was his markup because it’s being sent 2nd Class and won’t get here for another 2 weeks 😂😂
Worth noting that it’s going under the tree anyway so the wait doesn’t matter for me
@JohnnyShoulder More? Sure. But how much? Enough to make it so that regular people can get one without them being all scooped up by scalpers? Unfortunately, I really doubt it.

Nice! Here’s hoping it will come in one piece, new, and you don’t get stiffed in any other way
@nessisonett has the seller got some previous good feedback? This seems very odd as he stands to lose about £60 through sellers fees and on a console that is easily sold for double its value at the moment. Hopefully you've just got very lucky

I’ve stuck my PS4 external drive into my PS5. It updated all the games on it (well tried and failed and required about 50 repairs and rebuilds).
After it had completed. I was left with around 20 things in the download section on the PS5. All of them called “No Title” and when I press them, say “Insert the disc for the game”.
I managed to work out what 19 of them were based on the tiles in my “Installed” library. The unfinished ones had a red or clear status bar running along the bottom.
So I’ve inserted 19 games and cleared 19 downloads.
I now have 1 left and have no idea what game it is.
I’ve got a few hundred on the hard drive so I can’t go through all of them.
Does anyone know a way to find what this “No Title” game is?
I’ve tried the rebuild database fix. Doesn’t do anything.
@carlos82 Yep, 100% feedback from over 100 people over the years. From what the seller’s told me in his little thank you for buying note, due to the lockdown he just wanted to recoup his money fast as he was made redundant and I bought it only a few minutes after it went live! I feel pure bad for the guy, can’t have been easy to let it go.
