It looks like fun, but I'm definitely not paying full price for it. Especially since I could pay for Game Pass and play it on my Series X along with hundreds of other games. I'll wait for a sale and pick up a physical copy for PS5 and play it on my Pro later this year.

@dschons I appreciate the information. However, I've been using my Steam Deck OLED to force any and every game to use gyro on my PS5 Pro. Depending on the game, it can work pretty well 😏

Actually, I just went back and played the PS4 version of Days Gone a few weeks ago to finish up the last few trophies I was missing for the platinum. I'll probably just transfer my save over to the PS5 version for another platinum since I'm not in the mood to play the game again anytime soon.

What about for us PS5 Pro owners? 4K and 120fps? But with this art style it seems like this game will be perfect for playing in bed on PS Portal. I suppose I'll find out soon enough.

Please be Skull & Bones 2 Battleship Edition! The first game is a masterpiece! Quadruple A experience!

I want to download the PS4 version of Hogwarts Legacy on my PS5 Pro, but all I see is the PS5 version, which I already own and have Platinumed. It shows that the PS4 version is locked behind buying the Deluxe Edition. Anyone else having this issue?

@NitrousX I hope it has gyro aiming as well, but if it doesn't and you have a Steam Deck, you can force it and any other game on Playstation to have gyro, and it works pretty well, depending on the game of course.

First Silent Hill 2, then Cronos, now I Hate This Place?

Bloober is starting to become one of my favorite devs! Keep cooking!

@NeonPizza I agree with gyro being poorly implemented with the PS5 versions of RE4 Remake and RE Village, but it's better than no gyro at all. I think Capcom did a decent job with gyro support for RE Revelations 1 & 2 for Switch.

I can't speak on VR since I've not tried it. I'd assume the motion controls are on another level compared to standard controllers.

I doubt it, but maybe Nintendo will bring back the sensor bar for Switch 2...

Give me 4K with 120fps and gyro aiming, please. Also, physical copies of RE 5 & 6 for PS5. I'll gladly buy again if so.

At the moment, I prefer to play these games on my Steam Deck OLED, 90fps in handheld mode and 120fps while docked to my TV with gyro is so much more enjoyable!

I've played a bit of Space Marine 2 on my PS5 Pro, and it's very impressive so far. But I wanted to play Space Marine 1 first before I continued the second, so I went with the Steam version to play on my Steam Deck OLED and it's so much fun.

The series gives me Gears of War 1-3 vibes. I can't believe I never heard of it until recently. I'm now a fan and looking forward to any new releases in the future.

Well deserved! I love this game!

Did my part with a PS5 (digital) copy on Day 1. I also have the Steam version and physical copies for Series X & PS5.

Now it looks and runs even better on my PS5 Pro! Keep them hits coming, Capcom!

@Chibbie Yeah, I was mostly finished with AW2 as well. I still have the DLC to go through, though.

Unfortunately for me, most of the Pro enhanced games I've already finished and Platinumed (TLOU 1 & 2, God of War, Spider-Man, Horizon Forbidden West, etc.) But it's nice to go back and see the improvements, plus it will be an even more enjoyable experience playing through those games again in a few years time.

@Rich33 I appreciate the information. I'll have to check it out and see which one i prefer.

I went back and finished AW2 along with getting the Platinum yesterday and balanced mode with PSSR on all the way! Smooth 40fps with ray tracing on looked and played so well!

After that, I went back to Hogwarts Legacy and tried the quality mode with Ray tracing, but I couldn't deal with the 30fps, unfortunately. So it's uncapped HFR mode with that game for me. I wish more developers would give us a 40fps mode with Ray tracing on instead of 30fps.

I'm currently going through some of my backlog PS5 games on the base system, starting with Soul Hackers 2, mostly playing it on the Portal.

I'll probably go back to Hogwarts Legacy to check out the update and get the Platinum on PS5 Pro.

Nothing much on Switch, Series X, or Steam Deck OLED at the moment

Have a great weekend, everyone. And happy gaming!

I've had my PS5 Pro for about a week now, with disc drive of course.

Unfortunately, I have already Platinumed most of the Pro enhanced games I own, but I did test some games out to see how they look on the Pro and i must say Spider-Man Remastered, Stellar Blade, & RE4 Remake have impressed me the most so far!

I'm glad I waited for Rebirth to go on sale and my first experience will be playing it on the Pro.

Other non Pro enhanced & PS4 games I'll continue playing on my base PS5 for now.

I'm glad I decided to order a disc drive back in September when the PS5 Pro was announced.

I finally got my Pro yesterday, so I'm all set.

Although I'm pretty sure it's easier to find a disc drive here in the US for retail. Hopefully, everyone who's looking for one finds it soon without paying scalpers.

Nice! I was considering picking up a copy for Series X since it runs better than the PS5 version, but with my recent pick up of a PS5 Pro, I'll get the PS5 version instead.

Decent game that I enjoyed enough to Platinum. It already looked amazing on Series X and base PS5. Unfortunately, Dead Space and RE 4 Remakes came out a few months later and completely overshadowed Callisto. But that's besides the point. I am looking forward to checking out the update when I pick up a PS5 Pro soon.

Blood Omen 1 & 2 for sure.

Ishin was great when I played it on Game Pass a year or so ago. I'll probably play through that again.

Mabey some Killer Frequency, so I don't have to put the disc in. Same with Dying Light 2.

Too bad Resistance is streaming only.

I will double-dip after a deep discount.
By then, Steam Deck 2 will probably be out, and that's what I'll play it on.

Nice to know, but I'll keep that space for game saves only.

My 4TB WD Black SSD (PS5 games) and 8TB WD Black HDD (PS4 games) will be enough for now until the 8TB SSD's go down in price. I've prepared for storage issues in advance and also have an additional 5TB HDD to store my PS5 games I've Platinumed.

Finally!

Now, just give me gyro aiming support, and these games will be perfect for PS5.

Remedy recently added it to Alan Wake 2 and it's glorious! C'mon Capcom

Congrats to Bloober Team for a fantastic remake of a classic game!

I played nonstop 5 days straight (40 hours) until the Platinum trophy 🏆 popped!

Hopefully, Silent Hill 1, 3, & 4 The Room remakes next, please. In that order.

@DETfaninATL I've been putting off AW2 for almost a year now. I was going to wait and play in on PS5 Pro, but with the second DLC releasing this month, I figured I'd start playing it now.

Still Wakes The Deep will probably be next since it's a short game and looks like a 7 hour Platinum.

But I also just remembered i have Fatal Frame Mask of the Lunar Eclipse in the backlog as well. Decisions decisions.

@rusty82 I decided to go with Alan Wake 2 instead. But I'll get to Still wakes the Deep & Alone in the Dark eventually.

Thanks for the feedback.

After getting the Platinum for Silent Hill 2 yesterday, Absolutely amazing remake, great job Bloober Team! I'm debating on what to start playing next to keep spooky season going with horror games.

It's a choice between Alone in the Dark or Still wakes the Deep.

Other then that I'm slowly progressing through Dying Light (Steam Deck OLED) co-op with a friend when we both have the time to do so.

Have a great weekend, and happy gaming, everyone!

Another game that already looks amazing on base PS5. Besides, I already have the Platinum. So I don't plan on playing it again until the next God of War is about to release. I'm sure PS6 will be out by then.

Doki Doki and Dead Space are great! I own both of them on disc. I haven't been a fan of wrestling in over 20 years at this point. So WWE 2K doesn't interest me.

My Switch copy is still sitting on the shelf. I heard it doesn't look or run very well on that platform, though.

Since the PS5 version comes with all of the DLC, I'll probably buy it again eventually.

The Edge made the standard controller obsolete to me, at least.

If I can't get the Edge, I'll pass on the standard even if it's the OG colorway.

I want the Dualsense Edge & the PS Portal!

It may sound strange, but I kinda like the time limit these subscriptions give us to finish games. I've been putting off Gotham Knights for so long, and now that I have a month to beat it, I have to lock in and get it done. Good timing, too, since I recently played through all 4 Arkham games on my Steam Deck OLED.

For those who haven't played them yet, i suggest Dragon Quest 11 & The Evil Within. I own those on disc, though, so no loss for me.

I know I'm in the minority here, but I preferred the PSP & PS Vita over the DS & 3DS.
So, of course, I'd love it if Sony gave handheld gaming another chance.

Nintendo needs more competition in that space anyway.

I need an 8TB SSD for my PS5, but not at that price.

My 4TB WD Black SSD has been full for a while, but I prepared for it and bought a 5TB HDD to store the PS5 games I've platinumed. I hate having to delete and reinstall games. It will have to do for the next few years until this has a significant price drop.

After getting the Platinum in Stellar Blade, I haven't been playing my PS5 as much besides picking up Persona 3 Reload on sale a few weeks ago (65 hours in) but with my backlog and PS Plus Premium I always have games to play so it's not that big of a deal.

I do hope next year makes up for the lack of exclusives we've had so far this year.

Steam Deck OLED, on the other hand, I play daily.

@dschons If it makes you happy, that's all that matters. I'm really looking forward to Astrobot in September!

@HonestHick Thank you, but unfortunately the only special edition Dualsense controller I have is the God of War Ragnarok. All the other controllers are just standard White (2), black, purple, red, pink, & Dualsense Edge.

Lucky you. I really wanted that gray PS4 controller.

I did pick up the 20th anniversary Xbox, Gears 5, and Starfield controllers. Plus the Starfield headset.

@Czar_Khastik To be honest, I never thought I'd spend $200 on a controller. I don't play competitive games online. The same as you, I mostly play single-player games. It all started when I saw an Xbox Series Elite 2 controller on sale for $130, so I decided to buy it and fell in love with the premium feel and back buttons. Same with the Dualsense Edge.

Now it sucks going back to standard Xbox, Playstation, Switch controllers without back buttons.

The battery life isn't great on the Dualsense Edge, But neither is the standard Dualsense, so it's not too big of a deal.

I'm sure the Dualsense Edge has many other features that I don't use haha, But it works great for the things I do use it for.

Plus my original white Dualsense controllers are starting to drift after almost 4 years. So it's nice that you can replace the thumbstick module on the Edge if that problem ever occurs...

@dschons, haha. I'm glad you could pre-order one. Now, will you actually use it? If not, then what controller do you prefer to use with PS5?

It's a nice looking controller but if I bought one it would just sit on the shelf next to my God of War and 6 other Dualsense controllers I don't use because the Dualsense Edge is my go to for PS5.

If it were a Dualsense Edge, I'd buy one no questions asked, but since it's a standard controller. I'll have to pass...

@Bramble The Switch version for portable play and the PS5 version for better performance/resolution and trophy support. Also, for the collection as well.

I missed out when this (Lollipop Chainsaw) originally released, but not this time!

Already have my standard editions of Lollipop Chainsaw for PS5 & Switch pre-ordered from Limited Run.

I'll pre-order Shadows of the Damned next. And pick up Dead Rising after a price drop.

@RagnarLothbrok Nope. Just the standard editions. I should have asked the same thing. I'd imagine the collector's edition. It would take a bit longer to be ready for shipment...

@RagnarLothbrok That's strange. I received my copies of Persona 3 & 4 for Switch from Limited Run few months ago...

Mabey you ordered some other games along with them that isn't ready to be shipped yet?

That Collector's Edition is tempting. I'll most likely go with standard copies for PS5 & Switch since I also need to order Tomba & Beyond Good and Evil.

@Khwarezm89 No problem. Days Gone was so much fun. Even more so with gyro aiming!
I hope you enjoy it!

@Khwarezm89 For Playstation, there aren't very many, unfortunately, but a few do come to mind.

Days Gone
Helldivers 2
Horizon Forbidden West
Resident Evil 4 Remake (Doesn't let you adjust sensitivity, though, but better than no gyro)
The Last of Us Part 1 & 2

Gyro aiming should be a standard at this point.

If devs don't want to include it as optional in their games. Then, Sony should allow us to activate it at a system level on a per game basis.

I use gyro all the time with a Dualsense & Dualshock 4 while using my Steam Deck OLED docked, and it's amazing! I also use the touch pad as a mouse.

Why is it that Valve allows users to take better advantage of controller features than Sony? With their own systems (PS4 & PS5)

Since im single with no children, my gaming habits stay the same all year!

Now that I'm getting older, I prefer to stay at home. So I have plenty of time to play what I want when I want.
