I'm really not against splashing out on a stunning TV but I can never seem to let myself do the same on a gaming monitor for whatever reason. They're just so small for what you're paying for, no? It's probably going to cost my eyesight long term playing my consoles on a 60" TV but YOLO, I guess? 🤷🏻
@Dange oh I completely agree with you on that 1000% shows that online only is a pile of bull. I'm more so highlighting the sob stories people are coming up with.
@Dange I'm not defending the company in the slightest, they should be ashamed of treating people like that on the back of a $70 purchase. Although I'm sure if it was able to be put back online it would of been, something's obviously gone very wrong somewhere and they're only human. I doubt they are just sat saying "let's just give it another 12 hours before we press the 'go online' button.
I'm just saying that feeling sorry for yourself because you can't play GT7 for a day is a first world problem to the maximum. I doubt it's the only game anyone owns, and if it is then try out one of the free ps+ titles for a day in it's absence.
There's a lot more going on in the world to be concerned about than not being able to play GT7 for a day is all I'm saying.
@Uromastryx while I completely agree that it's terrible that you can't play a game that you've paid for I also agree that it's not the end of the world.
There are many a game on the PS4 & 5. For the sake of a day (so far) play something else. Or use this as a good excuse to step away from the console and go outside for some fresh air and a walk if it's stressing you so much.
I honestly don't mind 30fps for games like this. I can get much more involved in the world and the story the better it looks and I paid a hell of a lot of money for an incredible TV so that it does look good, so I'm happy with resolution. No doubt, if I play through it a second time it'll be done in performance
@Elodin yeah, I suppose it would depend how many multiplayer games you play and how often you switch games up. I've got MLB:TS and FIFA 22 downloaded on mine, but then the rest of the space just goes on whatever single player game I'm currently playing, then when I complete it the space gets recycled for whatever is next. Even when GT7 comes, I'll have space for that to stay as well as the story based single player that I'm playing through
I've never understood the issue with file sizes. Why can't you delete the games you aren't playing and then reinstall them if you ever need them again? They stay in your library after all, and you won't have to buy them again. So what am I missing?
I don't know, maybe i'm the weird one in the sense that I don't ever play more than one game at once. I like to fully concentrate on a game, try to complete and platinum it, then I move on to a new game. If I have to delete the one I just beat platinum on then so be it.
I'm being serious here, not trying to be controversial. I'd love some genuine insight on why it's a big deal.
Doesn't bother me on a gaming scale. I've never been a big multiplayer fan (stopped buying FIFA because of their greed. GTA Online is as multiplayer as I get) and have always been a huge admirer for solid storytelling you find with single player games.
I would be happy if PlayStation became the Single Player console, to be honest. As long as MS don't buy SE, EA/Bioware, Atlus etc then I still have no reason to turn my back on PlayStation. Maybe Sony should buy those to retaliate!
Been a PS owner and lover since the original PlayStation. And fingers crossed that doesn't need to change.
@Voltan it was better. Nothing perfect by any stretch, but it was better and you could tell that they had listened to the feedback. Amazing what even a little bit of colour can do to make a game more attractive!
@AndyKazama I think we're in for a surprise with how the game looms overall. They've been extremely quiet nor for a while probably doing some major polishing. Remember the difference between first demo and second? They could easily get it looking beautiful between then and release
See, it's a funny one. Because I like a game to end when I want it to end...
So for example if I'm enjoying it immensely, then I can explore, do the side quests, roam around, find collectables etc etc before finishing the story.
But at the same time, if I'm doing all that and I then get bored, or it gets repetitive, then I can just drop all of the side stuff and just fly through the main story.
It all depends on the genre and how much control you have over the game. A massive open world, 100 hours? Sure. A linear, leveled platform game, 100 hours? Hell no.
I think what I'm trying to say is it's not something you can really answer, because it's all dependant on what it is your playing on. What I can say is my preferred games are RPGs, so I guess I like games that take 40+ hours, I guess 🤷🏻

Re: Poll: How Long Should Games Be?
See, it's a funny one. Because I like a game to end when I want it to end...
So for example if I'm enjoying it immensely, then I can explore, do the side quests, roam around, find collectables etc etc before finishing the story.
But at the same time, if I'm doing all that and I then get bored, or it gets repetitive, then I can just drop all of the side stuff and just fly through the main story.
It all depends on the genre and how much control you have over the game. A massive open world, 100 hours? Sure. A linear, leveled platform game, 100 hours? Hell no.
