@DrVenture69 In pretty happy with my my V3 Blackshark pro's.
I've got a Takamine electric classical and Fishman amp- gonna plug in as I'm curious. As a classical guitar player mostly playing a just a really loud lattice concert, I would have never thought to try it out - thanks for bringing it up
Read that these new H9's are just a watered down set from Sonys midrange headphones with a mic.
Audeze are going to release an updated Maxwell @ US $340-
@captainsandman
Oh absolutely, like mixing Metro gameplay and Cyberpunks openness, with some very intense/ scary/ heart racing oh ***** oh ***** moments.
The ambiance with great headphones and a nice screen is breathtaking sometimes
I bought F.I.S.T. right after Pushsquares review, really good game.... Never finished it though. Don't think I'm a metroidvania fan Hack and Slasher though? Keeping an eye on this
@BAMozzy As one who pre-ordered the SteamDeck, and also has a portal, the 2 experiences are NOT the same. Simply put the ergonomics on the Portal, the weight and the screen, battery(don't have oled SD) greatly make up for any " on board playability" I use SD for Greenlight on Series X and it's pretty great, even with how well ergonomically the Deck is made, the weight and slightly cramped controls make longer sessions hard. The Portal is fantastic niche kit, certainly not crap-
You're a diehard MS fan(i just joined Xbox at a rocky time), you have a tendency to rabbit hole anything with comparable context to something MS does which can lead to some very very long rants
This is pretty exciting, except for the part where 95% of my collection is physical. I'm to lazy to check, but I'm guessing physical won't work with this? I don't have the upload speeds to use it normally outside the house, but could play cloud...hmmm I do love my display of physical- 🤔
@captainsandman some of the lighting and color pallette does a bit, background too.
Kind of a jarring disconnect with the characters and their texturing though
Another one to send to my daughter, killing it Pushsquare😄
Can't take anything you say seriously @Dogbreath when you would rather stream, than play natively on your PC that apparently has nearly identical specs to GEFORCE rigs
It may be one of the most spectacularly nonsenseical things I've ever read.
Welp, I'll be buying this used off of Gamefly- I don't buy often from Gamefly but it's the biggest F.U. way to buy used.
A few odd thousand people have already played it and now I'll "own" it knowing they got the least amount of return from me
I love my Series X too, but I'm so disillusioned with Microsoft
Edit: it's petty, but i think I'll pick up Indy and all future disk releases from MS and other 3rd party that feel " this is the way"
It's a novel idea in theory, but as other have pointed out, not often in practice.
I think PS should embrace games that allow active involvement in beta, like a big majority of smaller Steam games do. It's free marketing, it creates a financial buffer and it shows the level of interest the community has in an idea.
The paying part would need reworked though..... and as it's Sony, it's a pipe dream
@REALAIS Exactly I've visited both Blizzard and Bethesda, MS stores plenty of times, but don't recall EVER hearing about the PS Gear store, can't recall ever seeing links on PS Direct either
As a Classical music nerd this isn't terribly surprising. It's always so painful/ sad when we go to the symphony, people my age are so rare to see. My daughter was concert master for school and youth symphony for several years and every year the numbers shrank ,associated social media grew. Thank goodness I didn't major in Classical Guitar performance...... that's a whole other rant

PSA:
AVOID THE TEMPLES
The worst "important" mini- game I've ever experienced- this is not hyperbole
Re: Starfield 2.0 Overhaul Mentioned Yet Again as Wait for PS5 Announcement Continues
This will make for good popcorn entertainment, especially if Paul Tassi runs around screaming at anyone who doesn't think Starfield is a 9/10.
I don't think the game is capable of a 2.0.
From the ground up it wasn't well made, written, thought out, or any kind of groundbreaking

Re: Control Resonant Not a 'Safe Sequel', Remedy Aiming to 'Push the Boundaries'
Remedy is an enigma for me. I don't enjoy their games at all, but they are lauded by gaming fans and reviewers.
But they never sell really all that well

Re: Dead Island 3 Officially Confirmed in the Least Interesting Way Possible
Huge fan of Dambusters devs, they've been given 2 games in development hell, and turned out some really decent/ great games
Definitely buying 3 as soon as the 1st few patches roll out(never dreamed I'd have to plan purchasing around patches!)

Re: Rumour: Dead Space Is 'On Ice', Could Be Sold Off to Help Cover EA's Acquisition Debt
I finally played Dead Space thanks to PS Plus, and I've got to say... That's it????
If was fine. Not very scary, cool premise i guess.
Maybe I was WAY too late to the party, but i was not blown away
Re: PS5 Players Ponder Avowed Port as Xbox RPG Delays Its 'Biggest Update Yet'
I played it for about 12 hours on Gamepass, it's remarkably sterile and wayt way to safe.

Re: Poll: Is PS Portal the Biggest Surprise Hit of the PS5 Generation?
@BAMozzy As one who pre-ordered the SteamDeck, and also has a portal, the 2 experiences are NOT the same.

Re: Halo PS5 Is Great, But Why Doesn't It Have Competitive Multiplayer?
Outside of the novelty factor, why would anyone buy it?
Halo Infinite is as modern as Halo gets, and it felt reeeaaalllyyy outdated, was majorly disappointed
MCC runs great, even on the Deck.
I guess this seems like an odd entry point for Playstation....
Re: PS Portal Still a Huge Success as Sony Reportedly Preps PS6 Handheld
@Dogbreath The Portal is NOT poorly implemented..... that's nonsense.
You prefer streaming PC games to natively playing on your PC.....huh?
The days of enclosed hardware for handhelds are numbered....ok Lord Gabens illegitimate cat, whatever you say🤔
Re: STALKER 2 Shows Off Its PS5 Version in New Gameplay Trailer

Beyond excited to play again!
