Re: Rumour: Prince of Persia: Sands of Time PS5 Remake Out as Early as 16th January

CutchuSlow

@darylb24 that's one person. I speak to a lot of people. Gamers and non gamers. And there are lots of gamers who haven't heard of where winds meet, which is currently top 5 most played right now. And I know one person who was a fan of the original sands of time PS2 game, didn't know there was a remake coming until I told them. They play games, but doesn't know what games are out or coming out. People like that are the average people in London. Also if you work with big crowds, you will realise that the average people aren't smart. And I ain't the only person who said that.

@darylb24 you're talking about it being advertised and I'm talking about it not being advertised. Also most people don't watch YouTube to watch games and everyone has adblocker. Most people might have social media, but not everyone see games on it. I've never seen no games on my social media feed. I see it now on tiktok coz I recently searched where winds meet, so now I keep seeing where winds meet content. Most people only know FIFA or GTA or that crappy shooting game. They don't know about any other games.

Re: Talking Point: Does PS5 Have a Sequel Problem?

CutchuSlow

I've not played any of the games in the poll, so I can't vote. I'm not a fan and don't think I'll ever buy them. I did enjoy ghost of Tsushima, so if the sequel comes to PC, then maybe I'll buy it on sale and give it a go. If I have nothing else to play. But currently I've got a few games I haven't yet finished.

Re: Poll: Five Years of PS5 - How Would You Rate Sony's Console?

CutchuSlow

I'm not a fan of the PS5, so I wouldn't rate it. But it's better than xbox. That's it. I think the PS4 is much easier to use tho, or that's what I'm used to. I keep holding the ps button to turn it off, but have to press the ps button and find the off button. Was much simpler turning off console and closing apps on PS4.

Also, I like games that have cross save across pc and ps5. So would be nice to keep switching between platforms. That's what I've been doing with Where Winds Meet. Sometimes I'm on PS, sometimes I'm on PC. Need more games like this.

Re: PS5 Is the Second Fastest Selling PlayStation Ever in the US, Despite Price Hikes and Production Issues

@ButterySmooth30FPS "Motherboards frying CPUs, melting GPU power connectors, AIOs clogging, kernel-level anti-cheat, RAM shortage courtesy of the AI gold rush, Windows updates bricking SSDs, and etc."

I've never encountered any of these issues. These are probably just user error. And not the fault of the hardware. I bought my 1st PC in 2015 and it still works. I gave it away and built one from scratch 2 years ago and had no issues with that either. And I'm not experienced in this sort of thing. I don't currently have an AIO, but I plan on getting one in the future if I upgrade my CPU. And if CPUs are getting fried, it might be because there wasn't enough thermal paste or the cooler wasn't cooling. And power connector melts if there's a pin missing or isn't connected all the way.

When you hear about issues like these online, find the cause and you will learn from their mistakes, so it doesn't happen to you.

I don't know anything about what kernal level anti cheat is. Is that bad? And also yes windows is poo.

If the steam machine is £1200, I don't think anyone would buy it. It has to be under £500. Hoping the cheapest edition would be under £400. If it costs more, then I wouldn't care, I weren't going to buy it anyway. Got a PC already.

Re: PS5 'In the Middle' of Its Lifecycle, Claims Sony

@REALAIS I have no issues with my PC. I just turn it on and play. When there's an update, you don't even need to do it, but it's simple if you do wanna update. Just click download, then click install. That's the same on consoles tho. And for graphics settings, there's presets and auto. When you first open the game, it compiles shaders automatically. And then it also chooses the correct graphics settings for your system, so you don't have to change settings, unless you want to. The game compiles shaders once after an update. Nvidia app also has a simple 1 click optimisation button. So if you open the app. You'll find a list of your game and if you click on optimise, it will choose the best settings for the game. I think there's also an optimise all games button.

And if you don't need to change any settings, you can just turn it on and play. Steam has big picture mode, where you can control the steam menu with your controller, like on consoles. So you can get a console feel on PC too.

A lot of things on pc these days are just plug and play. And drivers are no longer needed. As long as the hardware is compatible. Everytime a new hardware is plugged in, the pc installs it automatically. So you shouldn't be scratching your head trying to figure out how to make it work. It might have happened on ancient computers, but not on modern computers.

Tho I'm speaking from a windows 11 user. Idk how it works on linux and other operating system.

"But with PC? Switch on new game. Oh, I need drivers? Okay. Oh, I need to Compile Shaders? Ok. Oh, I need to find right graphics settings for each game because performance is not universal thing. There are some caveats with PC too, it is not just sunshine."

What you said here is all wrong and I don't know where you got that information from.

Re: PS5 'In the Middle' of Its Lifecycle, Claims Sony

@REALAIS yeah. But you don't have subscription fees on pc. Some people have a PC already right now that can outperform the PS5. And if their motherboard and CPU is already really good, they would just need to buy a graphics card to upgrade in a few years or by the time ps6 is out. So it would cost them an extra 700 to 900£ for a midrange GPU, more for higher end. And their old card would still be worth a lot and could sell it to get their money back. So if it cost them 900, they could sell for 700 or 600. So it would be like paying 200-300 for a new card and they could split the cost even with 0 interest monthly payments.

PS5 is around £470 now? Add 10 years of ps plus, how much is that? If essential is £60 a year, that's 600 in 10 years, making total £1070.

So to me, having a PC works out better.

Re: Sony Cracks Down on Fake PS5 Gear, Sues eBay Seller for $2 Million

CutchuSlow

I hate that you can't make a fan made bag using popular brand names and sell it. I don't see it as trademark infringement. I see it as fan made and it's advertising the brand. If it was a company doing it, then yeah that shouldn't be allowed. But an individual person selling on eBay seems a bit too far to be sueing them.

Wish they would go after scalpers instead.

Re: Leaked Cross-Buy Icon on PS5 Hints at Mysterious Pro-Consumer Move from Sony

CutchuSlow

If we get crossbuy on pc and ps5, that would be cool. And if that means using ps store on pc, then I'll get that. I would have gotten it anyway if it ever came to pc platforms because it would have trophies. But if it has crossbuy, that's a bigger bonus. I have a PS5 that I don't use because I play on PC mostly. So with crossbuy and maybe cross save, I could switch between platforms.
