I have to try the demo for this and see if it’s for me, my view of the game itself has been warped by all the twitter pervs online but that’s not fair to the devs so I’ll definitely give it a go as it looks similar to Nier Automata which I love, also fitting timing now the 2B dlc is out!

I loved Elden Ring, I liked most of SotE, but it’s nowhere near the best FS DLC released let alone the best game released this year, I can name 5+ games better off the top of my head released this year, hopefully it doesn’t get nominated otherwise it’s a farce.

@Loamy does it come with a dog lead though? Or is it a ridiculous “optional” £100 add on! You never know these days!

@Loamy I mean, looking at HFW right now… maybe a new dog for Christmas won’t be so bad 😉

@Loamy Sadly true, after my PS5 Pro arrived the next day I found Hermen in my back garden nicking the dog! 💔

I would rather have casted Daisy Edgar-Jones or Hailey Atwell, but some people are judging Sophie way too early and writing her off prematurely, I still remember how forum users on the internet reacted when Robert Pattinson was cast as Batman, same way fans reacted when Heath Ledger was cast as The Joker, fans aren’t always right, so I’ll happily give her a chance here, especially seeing as the series is being headed by the marvellous Phoebe Waller-Bridge.

@LifeGirl You’re conveniently forgetting that Gal Gadot can’t act.

THE GOAT SERIES GETS EVEN BETTER LETS GOOOOO

Patch Notes

PLAYSTATION 5 PRO UPDATES

Black Ops 6 and Warzone are optimized for PlayStation 5 Pro:

Launch Features:
Using Sony's PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution Black Ops 6 supports a higher image quality when running at 4K and 60 Hz.

New PlayStation 5 Pro quality settings: higher quality shadows, ambient occlusion, reflections and screen space global illumination (unique to Quality Mode).

Players can also opt to play at 120 Hz for greater performance; on the PS5 Pro 120 Hz mode has the same image quality as the PlayStation 5 running at 60 FPS.

With Season 01:

New variable refresh rate mode that with the allows our highest image quality mode to often exceed 60 Hz on compatible display devices (120 Hz VRR).

@Ralizah A lot of these things are the exact same for all of the big three though. Nintendo also have raised their prices compared to in the past including on their first party games and are even stricter with their price drops on software compared to Sony, lets also not forget how Joy Cons are still overpriced and rarely on a good discount especially considering how they’re the worst made controllers out of all three companies in terms of reliability.

Sony themselves have used the PS5 Pro being a niche product to shield themselves from it’s price being a looming shadow for future consoles so I’m sure they’re not THAT stupid to step onto a rake so soon after this entire debacle, the PS5 Pro itself is already seeing price cuts of £50 across retailers in the UK, so that goes against everything you’ve just said with price gouging.

Enthusiasts are not the ones who get a PS6, they’re part of it of course but there’s many casual customers, parents and people wanting a PS6 who would’ve skipped the pro just for the new generation, the PS5 wasn’t obscenely priced after the PS4 Pro, so I don’t see how this will be the same, if it is I’ll eat my hat but luckily I can’t see that happening.

The only sticker is if a disc drive is included in the below £600 model, that is a very real problem compared to the phantom worries of some inflated priced PS6.

@carlos82 The PS4 generation was an insanely cheap generation, we all remember how much Sony lost back then on consoles sold per unit, and let’s not forget this was pre COVID, which whatever you think about it, has affected electronics and specially games consoles, Sony have spent the whole time saying that the PS5 Pro is priced like it is because it’s a niche product, even current Sony aren’t stupid enough to shoot themselves in the foot that badly, it may be £599.99 but it’ll still be cheaper than the PS5 Pro, it’s just the way it’s always works, by the time the PS6 drops we’ll have the PS5/XSX price dropping to lower than ever seen levels too let’s not pretend they’ll stay at their current price for the next 4 years.

THE GAMERS CALL OUT FOR CONCORD.

@REALAIS One may say coping, I on the other hand call it an optimistic prediction 🍻

@ButterySmooth30FPS unheard of I know 😉

@Grumblevolcano If Nintendo price the Switch 2 at that kinda price then yeah my prediction goes out the window, as Nintendo are the new price setters now, Sony will follow suit if they’re pricing high, but we will see, hopefully Switch 2 is around the £450 mark.

@Loamy Yep I’m also thinking £525-549.99 for the PS6. But then again I thought the Pro would be £550 so maybe my calculations are just heavily flawed 🤣

@nessisonett I have faith in my predictions, if they’re proven wrong I blame Jim Ryan and nobody else 💙

Long term numbers will be the real indicator but a good start nonetheless!

And people who think this means Sony will charge £600+ for the PS6 please give your head a little shake, the Pro is priced how it is as it’s a premium enthusiast item, the PS6 will be for the masses so will be priced accordingly.

A chance to play in England if it was run by Nigel Farage is always an experience worth the price of admission entertainment wise, day one baby!

Mid game so Pro support isn’t needed.

@get2sammyb come back when you’ve reviewed this one 💅

I remember when I questioned this being the best Lego game ever made like the preview said and I was given a snarky response from Sammy for daring to question the preview and it’s bold claims, well looks like I got the last laugh, LEGO LORD OF THE RINGS REMAINS UNBEATABLE 💅

Same old few saddos crying in the comments, haven’t you got anything better to do than to continue moaning about the console you supposedly don’t care about? 😉

Metaphor and Final Fantasy VII Rebirth have been snubbed here.

@KoopaTheGamer if your house is only valued at £699 I’d suggest finding a better home

@Blofse PlayStation News Site covering a major new PlayStation product? Well I’d never 🫠

Been trying it out with games and man it almost feels like a new generational leap, no more blurry messes!!!

Nintendo are the biggest cancer in gaming and I won’t be told otherwise, they’re brutes and bullies.

Pop in and texture issues are the only big problems for me when playing a bit of it earlier but that’s more a hard line issue; FF7 Remake and Rebirth both have awful texture work and their engine seems to suffer with pop in for foliage, even in the PC port for Remake.

Another game boosted to new heights thanks to Pro, who would’ve thunk it 😉

@Cerny multiple PS5 Pro patched games look better than anything we’ve seen this generation so far, you can cherry pick a few outliers to suit your agenda but the results don’t lie, you were always going to whine and complain, let’s be honest with ourselves here buddy.

@Cerny the SH2 patch for Pro isn’t out.

@amatmulisha thanks man, unbelievably excited, just building some Lego while I install millions of games haha

Also shimmering issues on Dragon Age, makes me wonder whether it’s a system level issue that devs can’t hack just yet, will likely be ironed out, it’s day one of the refresh so I expected some bumps, it’s great that it stays within the VRR range though, I hated the dips on my base PS5.

@danzoEX Definitely man, whatever resolution/frame rate you play on, we all still get to experience these gems with many more yet to come! 🍻💙

@Papa_Emeritus Appreciate you pal, the backlog is growing more with everyday 😭

@get2sammyb Thanks bud, also got the stand and loads more discs but couldn’t fit it all on frame, now to set this baby up! 🍻💙

ITS HEREEEEE

Staring out my window waiting for the postie to come, any minute now….

Great game, one of my all time favourites, happy to see others get to play it!

Today I learnt that GT Sport had at least one insufferable die hard fan, good to know!

Once GoY, DS2 and GTA 6 come out I’m sure we’ll see plenty nay-sayers coming out the woodwork to pick one up, it’s a seemingly great piece of kit and seeing as we may not see a PS6 till 2028-2030, selling your PS5 towards one of these is a cost effective manner to experience the rest of this generation at it’s fullest imo.

And if you don’t agree and don’t want one; why are you reading this comment 😉

@Athrum PS5 from PS4 played games at only 30 more frames for £490! What a steal!

SW OUTLAWS TOO!

https://press-start.com.au/news/playstation/2024/11/06/star-wars-outlaws-has-one-single-ps5-pro-graphics-mode-that-is-the-best-of-both-worlds/

@BlaizeV I don’t know how many more times Sony have to say this, but this was always meant to be a quality mode at 60fps machine, and with games like Horizon FW, Alan Wake 2, R&C and Spider-Man 2 we see modes that push the visuals further than anything the base PS5 has available with RT reflections, 2 of these games deliver that at 60fps, and this is without mentioning the likes of F1 24 which looks like a completely new game in terms of its lighting available on pro.

SILENT HILL 2!!!

2.89TB with my additional NVME, then the 1TB of HDD space for PS4 games, oh we’re eating great!

BRING ON TOMORROWWWW

Great for the devs behind the game! People wishing for this to fail were always forgetting the real people behind making this who worked their butts off, they deserve this success and it shows that social media outcry is nothing to take seriously ❤️
