Don't forget, this is the company that refused to give physical owners of the first game the free upgrade to PS5 that digital owners got, because they didn't understand the upgrade system.
They thought if you got the upgrade on a disk copy, you could play without the disk, and hand the disc to all your friends so they would get free copies. I was banned off their forums for pointing out that this is not how it works at all.
Considering they are blaming "hardware limitations" for PS5 not getting Cities 2, they clearly don't understand consoles and don't care to either.
BEWARE: The review fails to mention the well known disconnecting issue with the Pulse Elite.
You’ll be playing and the headset will randomly disconnect. Rebooting it won’t work, the PS will see it as a new device and ask you to connect. Still doesn’t work.
The ONLY fix is to unplug your dongle and plug it back in, then reboot the headset. This has been an issue since launch and seemingly won’t be fixed by Sony.
This is even more annoying on the Pro as the only port the dongle fits into is at the back of the console.
I'd much rather they fix the disconnecting issues with the Elite headset. The only way to fix this is to unplug the dongle and plug it back in. This also happens with the earbuds.
Years of making headsets for PS without issue and they try to re-invent the wheel with this one, slap "premium" on it and it's the most unreliable yet.
@Fishnpeas Dude if £70 is enough for you to still feel the financial strain 4 years on, I suggest gaming is far too expensive for you and you should probably get a better job.
@Oram77 It also fixes other things, and it's an update for the entire game. Just how this works, the game itself will detect what system it is running on.
@sanderson72 Yes the US gets to have ads shoved down their throat while the rest of the properly cilivised world doesnt not. Don't be jealous over that
@yoda87960 I'm sure a worldwide billion dollar company that is still going strong probably knows more about planning and releasing a product than you do. Just because they havent done what you want, doesn't mean they don't know what they're doing.
In any case, the developers had (have? Probably still the same) no clue how the upgrade process worked, and blocked everyone from having the free upgrade on disc. To top it off, if you mentioned this on their official forum, you were banned.
Considering this is the company that refused to give disc owners of CS1 a free PS5 upgrade, (as the did for digital owners) as they thought it would enable you to pass the disc around and give everyone a free copy of the game (they didn't know you still need the original disc to play) it doesn't surprise me they can't get to grips with PS5 development.

Re: Ubisoft Will Reportedly Fight for Assassin's Creed Shadows, Anti-Harassment Plan in Place
@Boxmonkey No, it'll just be used for idiots who think it's ok to send death threats because there is a black person and woman in their game.
You've already decided about some conspiriacy theory to "hide negative" views of the game. Which speaks more about yourself.
You can express a negative thought about the game in a mature manner without attacks the people who made it.

Re: PlayStation Users Miffed with Sony's Lack of PSN Outage Transparency
@get2sammyb Gamers tend to think that because they bought a console they should be able to find out any internal information they like.
I bought an Audi, I don't demand to know how ther factories work.
Gamers are unreal.

Re: God of War Ragnarok PC Review Bombed Over PSN Requirement
@Shinnok789 The ID section is not on Sony though, that is the local laws of the country.
Re: God of War Ragnarok PC Review Bombed Over PSN Requirement
@Retron This is a poor and weak arugment. The PSN hack happened well over a decade ago. You make accounts on other sites that get hacked daily.
Heck, you even made an account for this site and the world didnt end. Why did you not complain about that?
The bandwagon hopping is real and quite amusing. Plus, it's likely you already have a PSN account anyway if you're browsing this site.
