Far too expensive to buy at launch for a repeat play, but will no doubt have a run through in future.

It's a shame they've not expanded the levels or encounters at all. There's so many buildings and "streets behind the barriers" they could've made explorable. A mode to shuffle the enemy locations would have been a nice addition too.

@belmont I agree, A Short Hike is a great little game, charming and concise.
Very child friendly as well, my 6 year old daughter loved it.

@IonMagi woah, Dino Crisis is a great addition.

Wish they'd add more PS1 games. Had a fun play through the Resident Evil Director's Cut, and definitely appreciated the conveniences of Rewind and save anywhere.

@HarmanSmith Same. They did one for HFW and GT7 but not for games like Demon's Souls, Ratchet and Clank, the Director's Cuts, Last of Us P1 (only in US), Returnal, Miles Morales, Sackboy and now Ragnorak.

It's a shame as without the special versions I'll just go digital when they're on sale. Not interested in a big box of collectible statue clutter, but I do like a nice Steelbook edition.

@soracloud28 Shadow warrior 3 left yesterday

Sony seem to have stopped doing Steelbook/Limited Editions for a lot of first party games, which makes me sad

@AFCC Sony have already said they will announce additions to the Extra and Premium libraries separately from the Essentials. Two weeks apart IIRC.

1. Add to library
2. Never play

I thanka-you. See ya next month.

Good on them for persevering. I would imagine they're aiming to recover revenue with a Gamepass/ PS Plus inclusion.

The original GOAT.

Was an incredible leap forward when you consider we were all playing 2D platformers until a year or two before this came out.

I wonder why you can't view and 'purchase' the PS3 games from the mobile App.

@KidBoruto yes it would be better if they stayed, but that would incur a much larger subscription fee. An inherent compromise in the rental service.

@Snake_V5 as Liam says, this is incorrect, you will lose access to the Extra and Premium games.

PS Now games used to also get added to your library as if you'd bought them, but then they'd become locked when they left PS Now. This is how Gamepass works on Xbox too.

Yeah these are the PS Now expiration dates.

Been playing SW3. It's fun, like a simplified Doom Eternal. But pretty repetitive and a bit annoying in places.

@dschons ah yes are you thinking of the room with the fishing lures (in the RE1 remake)?

@stu123 I don't recognise it from any game but it feels a bit like it could be in Detroit Become Human

Bored at work so ..

Helmets from Returnal and Demons Souls?
Butterflies - Ghost of Tsushima?
Weird fish and flowers: Don't know but feel a bit Horizony

Trophies: Gran Turismo, sports games?
Fridge photos: Red Dead 2, NBA 2K, Ghost of Tsushima, Returnal

Basement: Death Stranding BB, Bloodborne blade, HZD watcher, Firefly pendants from LOU, underwater mine from Uncharted? , Weapons cabinet could be various games but includes a GoT sword and guns from e.g. Days Gone and Last of Us, Death Stranding mask, GoT mask.

Think I glimpsed some armour too, maybe Kratos.

And the monster behind the door... Could be the creatures from the caves in Uncharted or a Days Gone freaker?

Nathan Drake's coin.

Didn't recognise the alien bones or the thing swimming in blood.

A lot of these seem to have been removed because it's against eBay rules to sell a pre-order earlier than 30 days ahead. Good.

Report them if you see them.

They've certainly not been sold, you can check Sold items.

Agreed, still a fantastic game and it runs very smoothly on PS5 but no significant difference that I noticed vs. PS4 Pro (to the naked eye).

@messimagician it's PS4 only but works on PS5. I don't think there is a need for a separate PS5 version, this would run on a Mega Drive.

Would fancy that Firefly Edition if it surfaces in UK or Europe

@Ryany I'd hope for more, otherwise that'd just be a patched version of the PS4 remaster...

Ideally they'll be remaking the whole thing in the Part 2 engine.

@JimmyRiddle yeah, I don't think 'upressed' is a word. Barely shows up if you Google it. I think you can get away with 'Up-Res' .

RE Village is brilliant, get it if you're on the fence.

What does "upressed" mean? Do you mean upscaled?

@Apfelschteiner it's very noticeable if you can flip between the two modes in the same game. For example, you can do it in Horizon Zero Dawn (PS4 pro and PS5) and Forbidden West, , Shadow of the Tomb Raider , and Spider-man & Miles Morales (PS5, not sure about PS4 or pro). In loads of others as well. 60fps is much more responsive, 30fps feels painfully slow in comparison.

However I actually often have trouble telling the difference in quality /resolution mode, so just tend to stick with the higher FPS modes. In Forbidden West you need a microscope to notice the benefit of the higher resolution mode, but 60fps is a literal game changer.

Thought this might be the case. Couldn't get into Wii or PS Move shooters for the same reason, moving a cursor around just isn't very fun. "Light gun" games haven't been the same since the demise of CRT.

@Number09 hehe, a bit of Father Jack will resolve almost any situation.

@Number09 I mean, even the headline says British Gas. Just admit you read it wrong and stop digging.

@Gloamin agreed, but it's worse than that. They make money from waste. It's just posturing to distract from the real problem (i.e. them).

@Number09 The article talks about British Gas, merely passed on by the BBC, I'd take umbrage with BG first.

@BeerIsAwesome this is true, same way the plastic industry makes it all the public's fault for littering and not recycling (you can only recycle plastic twice anyway).

@Number09 British Gas isn't the BBC

Pedantry alert ..

"Watts per hour" is incorrect. It's just "Watts". Watts per hour is like saying 'Miles per hour hour'. A watt is 1 joule per second. It is a rate of consumption, not cumulative.

You CAN say watthours, but it's almost always converted into Kilowatt Hours

So, a console consuming 0.5 Watts will consume 0.5wH per hour . Or 0.0005 kWh per hour.

@Ristar24 I agree, it'd be nice if we could access PS3 titles we own digitally for no additional cost, at least via streaming.

@Luigia PS3 will be streaming only, like it's always been on PS Now.
Sony would have to build a PS3 Emulator for PS5 to play PS3 discs, and there's no sign of that anytime soon. And likely no strong business case for it.

@Luigia if you mean the ability to insert a PS3 disc into the PS4/PS5 and play it, then no chance of that happening at all.

Wow, I had this aged about 12, was delighted to get an FPS on the Mega Drive. Didn't notice that the window was so small at the time, and that was playing on a 14 inch TV!

God the PS1 was such an amazing console.

I'd like to replay LAPD Future Cop, please

The new model is fine.
All depends on what games they add, and how frequently

Interesting. I've struggled to see the benefit of HDR on HFW, and on Ghost of Tsushima it made everything look worse. Thought it was my TV's fault but maybe not...

@Tecton217 what's a Reddit crowd game?

@BritneyfR_ee given that the complete knowledge of the human race was deleted in the first game, it is very impressive they've all managed to learn English so nicely !

Been a few months so, it'll be Call of Duty: Ye Olde Warfare or whatever it was.

By the way, how can it be unrealistically diverse? It's meant to be a cross section of the world's population, that was built into Zero Dawn.

Just imagine having their lives. And be grateful you don't.

I've recently joined a company where working over your contracted hours is actively discouraged except in exceptional cases. My previous company had a culture where it was a badge of honour to be working at 1am. The difference is astounding, people are so much happier and more switched on at my new company.

@Ralizah curbstomp? Well that's...quite a use of vocabulary.

It's a very common thing when a corporate takes over a smaller company. It's to incentivise the existing management and staff to continue making the same effort that made the company worth buying in the first place.
