The PlayStation 5… without a doubt, my favorite thing on the PlayStation 5… definitely can’t wait to purchase a PlayStation 5 to get PlayStation 5 on my PlayStation 5

Oh wow... This reminds me of an old meme I saw when I read scans of the manga series bleach back in the day... That makes me feel incredibly old

No for real, happy for you sis!! Still don’t have a ps5 : ((
I’m too comfortable with my ps4… series s… switch… steam deck… to feel wanting a ps5, but it’s still been on my list forever despite that. Maybe one day.

Awww thanks!!

The only modern console I have is a PS4 so... I could really do with an upgrade finally. Only took me half the generation!


Well I have to play Astro's playroom first and see what all the hubub is about with the dualsense controller @ Th3solution! Especially after having a phone call with my daughter during my lunchbreak and she wouldn't stop gushing about it!

I have a few PS4 titles that also have PS5 version (both digitally and phyiscally). But it's a toss up between Shin Megami Tensei 5 Vengeance and Baldur's Gate III for sure! Maybe SMT 5 just because I know if I play BG III I might be up til 3am or something

I have faith Astro will be to your liking. Japan Studio might be my favorite in-house Sony studio. Ape Escape is my favorite sony owned IP and it’s jam packed with love care. 3 is my favorite. You might be thinking, why isn’t that game on ps5

  • Uhh… about that, they might have to answer to Konami.. No I’m not making that up.

Writing this in a separate post for easier readability for HallowMoonshadow, ps4 and ps5 are both fantastic as an “only modern system”. Now, I do have my own biases, for instance, the reason I have an Xbox is to play Grand Theft Auto IV, my favorite game of all time. But the ps4/ps5 is a fantastic system!…. Mainly because of a different bias I have for niche Japanese games… I have my own peculiar hobbies but the Sony systems are generally great.

@Yousef- Interesting to know you have an Xbox just in order to play GTAIV, do you think you will ever try any of the Fable or Witcher games on there as well? I loved the first Fable and TW3 (admittedly I played that on Ps4, though).

@BlAcK_SwOrDsMaN I may have purchased Witcher 2 on a bargain sale. I tried it but got lost really quickly despite enjoying it so I might return to it. I have far too little experience in Fable to comment on it and don’t know what game is newcomer friendly or easy to get into.

@Yousef- Fable is really easy to get op in if you are willing to farm for xp for a bit, as, from what I remember, there is only a negligible amount of increase in xp price from level to level as you are spending your xp points on leveling up, and there are some very powerful spells that you can get your hands on as well.

Edit: Plus with all the options, like buying property, getting married and so on it's a bit like the open world rpg equivalent of gta.

@HallowMoonshadow Oh yes, definitely start with Astro’s Playroom. It’s a gem. But it sounds like your daughter has told you all about it. 😄

And with the news about the next big BG3 update coming in September, it might be worthwhile to postpone it (if you can stand the wait) and spend your time on SMT5. I’ve been waiting on this big Sept update to see what mods will be available and get the performance even better.

Ha please I'm fully aware of Ape Escape @Yousef- the game that demanded you have a Dual-analogue/Dualshock controller!

I've played both Ape Escape 1 & 2 (But never three).

I've played the original version of Snake Eater with Snake VS Monkeys too that features those delightful monkeys


She didn't spoil anything I didn't already know, just first hand impressions of the new tech @Th3solution.

And yeah that's no doubt the smartest thing for me to do, especially with that information!

The UI really has took some getting used to.

No qualms about the dualsense so far though!

Yousef-

Ahh, fascinating, @HallowMoonshadow !! Do apologize if it sounded like I assumed ignorance, I just love bringing up Ape Escape.

You missed out, sis! Three is the best without a shadow of a doubt! The transformation mechanic adds a ton, and finally a female protagonist! Yay women. : D

God, I cannot convey to you my total adoration for the monkey minigame in Snake Eater. Hearing Snake shout enthusiastically shout the AE series’s iconic “Gotcha!!” Phrase every time he catches a pipo… he’s really loving it… really cures my soul : DD

(Oh, and since you’re from the UK, that must mean you experienced the superior British English dub. Now I personally love the Japanese audio as I find the voices really cute, but the British dub is objectively superior to the American dub and respects the original Japanese names too. It’s no competition at all.)

Darn right I have! It's not the best dub ever in terms of actual quality but it's quite charming none the less. Especially as most the voice cast for Ape Escape 2 is from Children's TV over here! (I actually haven't played Ape Escape 1 since it released back in 1999 so I can't recall that one! (It is on my wishlist though and I'll be getting it soon-ish!))

Might wanna get it on a discount sis, I remember not hearing that many great things about the emulation there but it’s probably all been patched. But hey, no matter how bad it gets, can’t be possibly worse than On the Loose.

I wasn't previously aware of that Crackpet show game but it looks like it could well be something I'd get on with so thanks for the tip.

My most recent purchase was Jeanne D’Arc. I know I could have simply downloaded it with my PS Plus subscription, but I also wanted to own it a la carte for good measure.

Just bought College Football 25. I also downloaded a bunch of stuff like Zenless and Jeanne D'arc.

Was my local CEX had a copy of Dead Space remake in for £25 so took a bunch of stuff I no longer had need of and they came to £24 credit. So I purchased Dead Space remake (PS5) for One whole pound. Pretty happy with that.

Oh Dead Space remake, a great game and a fun platinum (as was the original). Enjoy.

I actually just bought Severed, but for my Vita. I never got around to playing it and for some reason it’s been on my mind. It should be a good game to platinum.

@Kraven
Yeah good game that, as you say a good game to platinum though I do remember some mad swiping with the final boss/level and your finger will work up a sweat but nothing too difficult as I recall. Enjoy and great to again see some Vita action.
