I need to try to actually complete the game for once before I go for the Platinum. Now to decide whether to play it on PS5 Pro or Switch 2.

Got my platinum a few days ago. Such an amazing game! I enjoyed it more than Tsushima.

The gameplay was so smooth, even in ray-tracing pro mode on PS5 Pro. The ray-tracing looked great with 60fps. Honestly, I thought it already had VRR support.

40fps mode and NG+ are nice additions. But i've had my fill and moved on, for now.

PS5 Pro- Platinumed Ghost of Yōtei last night and Astro Bot this morning.
I might start Cronos The New Dawn tonight.

Switch 2- Mario Galaxy 1 & 2 arrived in the mail yesterday. I'll start Mario Galaxy 1, Rune Factory Guardians of Azuma, Overcooked 2 NSW2 Edition

Steam Deck OLED- Bioshock Remastered, Shenmue 2, Mad Max, Zombie Army 4 (horde mode)

Guess I'll keep my PS4 copy sealed and play the digital PS5 version.

I wonder how come no 120hz mode for the PS5? The PS4 version already runs at 60fps on PS5 through backwards compatibility.

Chapter 1 was amazing, great graphics and 120hz mode. Super smooth experience on PS5 Pro!

The ending left me wanting more. I can't wait for chapter 2! Day one purchase!

How about a performance patch for the Pro? Because the frame rate really tanks at times, especially later on in the game.

That's why i'm still waiting on my Platinum run. Other than that, it's a great game!

PS5 Pro - Ghost of Yōtei, Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered

Steam Deck OLED - Dead Space Remake (Impossible mode run), Ghostbusters The Video Game Remastered, Mad Max, Shenmue

Switch 2 - Overcooked 2 NSW2 Edition, Rune Factory Guardians of Azuma NSW2 Edition

Great, I'll pick up a used copy years down the line for dirt cheap, that way Microsoft doesn't get any of my money.

Which is a shame because I enjoyed The Outer Worlds 1.

I'll do the same for Doom The Dark Ages, Oblivion Remastered, and Indiana Jones...

Still not worth $1000 to me.

If I want to enjoy Spider-Man on a portable device, I can play it on my Steam Deck OLED via remote play from my PS5 Pro on an OLED display with HDR that looks similar to my LG C1 OLED TV on a handheld screen. Running at 60fps with some ray tracing.

I'll wait for Steam Deck 2 and the rumored PS6 portable.

@Flaming_Kaiser I know it would be kind of pointless if the game isn't on the disc in full. But I would still rather have that instead of a digital copy.

Microsoft did the same thing with Doom The Dark Ages & Indiana Jones. Which is why I haven't picked them up yet.

I can wait for a steep discount before I purchase them.

They should wait until the game is fully patched and in working order before they decide to release a proper physical.

I'll hold off for a sale of $20 or less before I pick this up.

@Oram77 Nice!

Have you played Cronos? I'm looking forward to playing that after I'm finished with SH f.

Honestly, I forgot about Townfall. Do you know whose working on that one?
I'm hyped for SH1 Remake!

Love to see it! Great game!

I know playing through the same game multiple times to understand the full story might not be for some. But I'm enjoying it. And I'm currently on my second playthrough.

I want to see all the endings and unlockables this game has to offer. Plus, I need that Platinum trophy.

I'm still patiently waiting for Amazon to deliver my copy today. The longer they take the later it will be. I don't plan on playing until nighttime, anyway.

I just hope the issues on PS5 Pro aren't enough of a distraction for me.
If so, maybe playing on the smaller Steam Deck OLED screen via remote play would make the shimmering less noticeable?

I expected nothing less from Sucker Punch, especially after Ghost of Tsushima.

Seems like Ray Tracing Pro mode will be the way to go on PS5 Pro.

Is there gyro aiming with the bow/rifle? If not, I'll have to use the Steam Deck OLED to force gyro aiming.

With Cronos, Silent Hill f, & Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter to play through. I'll probably pick up a copy of Yotei around Thanksgiving.

Nice! I'll play Crow Country and Conscript.

I think these games would be perfect to play on a portable device.
So remote play via Steam Deck OLED it is.

So no gyro aiming support? I guess it doesn't benefit from ALL the features the Dualsense controller has to offer then? I'll have to use my Steam Deck OLED to force the game to support gyro.

The Gears of War franchise holds a special place in my heart. These games were a technical showpiece on the 360 back in its heyday. Almost 20 years later, it's hard to believe Gears of War is available on PlayStation, and it will look and run better on my Pro compared to the Xbox version.

Even though I have a digital copy of Reloaded free on my Series X (since I own Gears Ultimate Edition) I had to order a physical copy for PS5. I'm excited to jump back into the campaign and maybe dabble, with a little bit of online multiplayer. My copy will be arriving today!

I thought it was digital only at first which made me sad.

I noticed it was up for pre-order on Amazon yesterday and put my order in for a PS5 copy.

If the Switch 2 version wasn't a game key card, I would have double dipped. Oh well, I'll use that money towards Silent Hill f instead.

@kmtrain83 Yes, it's becoming more difficult for us physical collectors, especially with these portable devices. (PS Portal, PSP 2?)

PS Premium has made my Portal experience more enjoyable with a large library of digital games to choose from.

I think since the PS6 will be backwards compatible with PS4/PS5, that we will have at least one more generation with an optional disc drive.

I'll keep my PS5 Pro to play all of my disc-based games, just in case.

Another Plus is having years of PS Plus monthly games tied to my account.

Most of my PS4/PS5 collection is on disc. So a disc drive is important to me.

At least it will be another long cross gen. So if the PS6 is digital only. I'll stick with my PS5 Pro and see what PS6 Pro has to offer.

I'm interested in the handheld. To natively play through extra/premium subscription games and remote play.

I'm so hyped for Silent Hill f! My PS5 Pro and I are ready!

2 Silent Hill games in 1 year. Silent Hill 1 being remade. I love to see the comeback for this series!

@kyleforrester87 Exactly! 45fps feels almost like 60fps to me on the Steam Deck.

I'm sorry to hear that. For the most part, my Steam Deck experience while docked to the TV, has been good.

After the last Steam OS patch, my docking experience has been even better on both of my TVs (LG C1 OLEDs) I use the official Steam Deck Dock from Valve with an HDMI 2.1 cable. Which dock and cable do you use? And what kind of TV? If you don't mind me asking.

@kyleforrester87 After adjusting the settings, yeah. I have it at a mix of medium/high settings in portable mode and cap the frame rate to 45fps and it's smooth, stable and looks better than the 360 version. Plus I use gyro, so it makes aiming so much more pleasant!

I can also play docked to the TV, if I cap the frame rate to 40fps at 720p and it still looks better than the 360 version.

I know that might not sound impressive since it's an older game, but unfortunately the GTA IV port on Steam has frame rate issues, if you don't cap it to 40/45fps on Deck, then it fluctuates all over the place.

I'm not knowledgeable enough to download mods to fix it. It's a game issue, not a Steam Deck issue.

Having just played through GTA IV on my Steam Deck OLED. The game holds up and it's such a joy to play. I prefer it over GTA V.

I'd love physical copies of GTA IV for PS5 & Switch 2, please.

The 360 version runs at 60fps on my Series X, but the 720p low graphics settings look very dated on a large 4K OLED TV.

Same day as Silent Hill f? I'll have to pick up both games, unless this one is digital. Then I'll wait for a sale.

I haven't even finished Atelier Ryza 1, or started Yumia. Plus the Atelier Ryza Trilogy was just announced!

Pre orders are available at Best Buy for the physical version.

I don't have the game yet but I'll be playing it on PS5 Pro when I do. I wonder if any users are having any issues. With the game overheating, on PS5 Pro consoles?
Or is this just a base PS5 problem?

Silent Hill f in late September and this in mid October. Hopefully, Chronos somewhere around there too. Spooky season is shaping up nicely!

@Oram77 I'll take RE0 also, but I hope they add local and online co-op to it. Personally, I was not a fan of swapping back and forth between two characters and having to manage both inventory slots. It was very cumbersome and took me out of the experience.

Nope, but I've added it to my Steam wishlist, to purchase later on after a discount.

There is no need to add it to my PlayStation wish list, because I will be picking up a physical copy day 1! So hyped! RE Code Veronica Remake next, please.

E.A. refuses to give us Dead Space 2 Remake. So, I'll take this instead. Now, give me a release date, please. Sometime in October would be a good. Hopefully, not too close to Silent Hill f.

I did my part with 3 full priced purchases of Dead Space 1 Remake (PS5, Series X, Steam)🙄

If they have a proper physical release (no game key card) i'd gladly double dip and pick up a copy of Stellar Blade for my Switch 2, instead of the Steam version for my Steam Deck OLED.

With all of the hentai games, flooding the Nintendo Eshop. I don't see why it couldn't happen, lol.

Maybe the Switch 2 version could have some custom skins for Eve (Samus, Zelda, Princess Peach, ect) kind of like Fatal Frame, had for the Wii U back in the day.

From Silent Hill 2, to this and then Silent Hill 1 Remake! Bloober is cooking!
My PS5 Pro is Ready! I'm here for it all!

Not a big deal for me. Play it on Day 1 via Game Pass on my Seriex X. Pickup a physical copy for PS5 Pro after a price drop.

I know most people do not have the luxury of owning multiple platforms per generation.

This is just how I plan to do it.

Looking forward to playing RE 2 & 3 since I've never played the originals (crazy, I know)
I love the Remakes!

Twisted Metal 3 & 4 will be interesting to revisit. I enjoyed them as a kid. But that was over 20 years ago...

If it's a Dualsense Edge, I'm interested. Standard Dualsense, they can keep.

Wow! I was already sold before! The atmosphere, the enemy design, even the sluggish combat. I was hoping for an October release, but September is even better!

Day 1 purchase. My PS5 Pro is ready for this!

Great! Now, I can keep my physical copy of Alone in the Dark sealed and on the shelf. I've been meaning to pick up a copy of Bomb Rush Cyberfunk but never got around to it. So it will be nice to try that out.

I recently took advantage of the Day's of Play sale and renewed my PS Plus Premium subscription for another year. So I'm good to go!

I'm glad they didn't abandon it. And they're still working on it, at least. I've had the game since day one and Platinumed it within the first week of release on my base PS5. By the time the Pro released, I had already moved on.

If they have it sorted out by October, I'll go back for another playthrough on my PS5 Pro this time, for spooky season 🎃 👻 🎃 👻

Now Bring on Silent Hill F, & Silent Hill 1 Remake, please.

Physical release with the full game on the disc? I'll buy day 1.

Digital only? They can keep it.

It's very simple, Microsoft.

@Flaming_Kaiser I'm fine with that. And if Sony doesn't think Day's Gone Remastered will sell enough copies to warrant a physical release, then partner up with Limited Run to make it happen.

Gyro working as intended is the main update I like to see!

Balanced mode at 4K 40fps on PS5 Pro is also nice to see!

Now we need a physical release and I'll be satisfied!

Decent month for me! Now I can keep my physical copies of Sand Land & Granblue Fantasy sealed and play the PS Plus versions instead.

I never finished Soul Hackers 2, so I can go back to that without having to put the disc in.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. looks interesting, so I'll definitely check that out.

Good old GTA 4. I didn't appreciate you as much back when you originally released (Xbox 360). But I made up for it and thoroughly enjoyed my experience on Steam Deck oled last year.

GTA 4 is now my second favorite game in the series. After San Andreas, of course.
I'd love to play it again on PS5 Pro with no online trophies added this time. Thank you very much!

That's fine. I'll pick up a physical copy a year after release. All patched up and ready to go for $10. Like I did with Borderlands 3.

With the rising costs of current gen hardware so late in its life cycle, purchasing my PS5 Pro at launch feels more worth it by the day. Games that take advantage of the extra power are very noticeable indeed.

Even if PS6 is only a few years away, I wouldn't be surprised if it's $800 or more at launch. Plus, cross gen will be a thing for years to come, meaning my PS5 Pro has plenty of life left in it.

But does the Playstation version support gyro aiming? Probably not. Looks like I'll wait a few years when it's dirt cheap to play it on Steam Deck 2 with mouse like gyro support. Or mabey even Switch 2, who knows...

@GirlVersusGame I'll give it a shot. I disagree with Gwent in Witcher 3, though, because I did not enjoy that. I haven't played Slay The Spire. Pokémon The Trading Card Game for GameBoy Color, I really enjoyed back in the day.

Pretty weak month for me. Balatro, I hear about all the time. But it's just a card game. How fun could that possibly be? I'll give Warhammer 40,000 a go.

But I want 120fps with gyro aiming! I'm tired of devs pretending like gyro isn't a thing.
That's why I'm so thankful for the Steam Deck OLED! Give me the option to turn gyro on or off on each and every game if i want at a system level, Sony.

@Rog-X I know. I'll wait for it to drop down to $20 and pick up a copy then. I'd still rather have the disc instead of the Digital version. At least I could sell it or loan it to family/friend if i no longer want it...
