Re: Here's Why Sony Is Making a Japan-Specific PS5 Console

Bahamut_GR

A cheap region-locked model basically means they’re selling it at a loss (or with a very small profit). The idea is to sell more hardware and make up the profit from game sales. Japan is an important market, after all. I suppose it makes even more sense for Nintendo, since they produce many first-party games that sell extremely well.

Re: PS Plus Extra Loses 9 Great PS5, PS4 Games Next Month

I personally have no problem with games leaving the service. What I really dislike is:
1. The way they give the info about games leaving the service. One month is not enough imo. Sony needs to be more upfront, so that gamers can plan their gaming time accordingly.
2. The fact that the plus service seems to be getting worse.For the past months mediocre or just bad games enter the service and at the same time, good games are leaving. I see no balance here.

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Tales of Arise?

I haven't finished it yet but the game is absolutely great. Dropping their in-house engine and using unreal is the best thing the studio could do. Tales has been stale for a while from a technical standpoint. I love everything about the game so far. My only gripe is the enemy variety, but it's a minor issue.

Re: Poll: Have You Experienced PS5 Coil Whine?

Bahamut_GR

My console is completely silent idle, on menus etc. When I am playing a ps5 game (miles morales) I can hear the fan/coil whine/both (I am note sure) when the sound is muted and I am standing next to the console. If I am playing normally, sitting on my couch I can't hear a thing. I am very pleased with my ps5 so far.
PS. What I found interesting is that the sound profile of the console is different on miles morales, depending on the chosen graphics mode (fidelity/performance).
