I would be tempted to play the game with these skins as I love stupid things in games but assume you have to buy the battle pass and then play for 300 hours to unlock what you have paid for within a one month window.
@Ooccoo_Jr Exactly this. In 2020 it was a PS/Xbox race but Nintendo does whatever it likes since the Switch so can take its time to have stock ready for a console.launch.
@Matroska I didn't check stock. I was just basing it on an article I read on this site last week. 75p interest is better in our pockets than Sony's though.
@Matroska They ran out of copies of Clair Obscur so people who wanted a boxed copy have to wait. The pre load thing is useful on a digital pre-order but you can't pre-load 5 months in advance. I believe you are charged straight away for digital. With interest rates as they are now you should earn a little bit of interest on that charge over 5 months if you waited.
Boltgun is the headliner for me. Ark is not for me and didn't enjoy Balatro. I was hoping the leaks were true but assume Until Dawn will turn up on PS Plus at some point on one of the tiers.
Just over 9% of all gaming time is spent on Fortnite. That is a crazy statistic and it only seems to be increasing. If this keeps up gaming will soon be renamed as Fortniting.
The thing about rumours now is that sometimes the rumours turn in to rumours that the rumoured game has been cancelled which then turn out to be true thus preserving your online clout.
The test will be when they bring their AAA games over. If Indiana Jones and FH5 (although with that being an older game, it may be a bit too late to the party) post lower numbers than Sea of Thieves then that may be the end of the Xbox ports.
Quick, someone tell Sony to stop development of the PS6 now cos the kids don't want it and their current player base will soon be arthritic and won't be able to play.
I heard a rumour they are remaking Bloodborne and when it doesn't come to anything there will be a rumour that the rumoured remake has been cancelled. Am I doing the rumour thing right?
@Haruki_NLI I can imagine instead of having one arm tanned like truck drivers you would have just your forearms tanned holding the controller in that beam of light coming in through the window while you battle with glare on the TV screen.
A friend of a friend was hospitalised after watching Punch Drunk Love apparently as it was shortly after he had a car crash and it brought on terrible PTSD. Movies only come with a warning if they think it will sell tickets. If they want to stick a vague warning on a game then go knock your socks off.
I can't grab a console or controller without my 3 year old stealing it off me wanting to play so my gaming time is limited to when he is asleep unfortunately. The portal is no use to me as when he is asleep I can get the TV. Maybe when he is older and has his own console to play on.
@Kienda I can only imagine people would only rent for a month or two at best. These are going to get passed around like crazy. They are going to be an absolute mess after 12 months.
@Kienda Still seems like overkill as you could buy a new one and use for a few months and sell for probably less cost than as a rental for a few months.
So if it is still on sale by the end of the year then the Black Friday sale on this price may make it worth purchasing. Unless I spank all of my money on the Switch 2 first.
If you can complete the games to get the platinum. I was playing Ghosthunter on the PS5 and I can't get past the bit near the end. Just crashes whether I play locally or stream. Not sure I can be bothered to start again and try.
The point is so they can make more money from people and fill up the 1st party release schedule to stop it looking so barren. We need some PS3 remasters rather than PS4 games that can already be played on a PS5.
I am.sure I bought this for under a tenner at some.point so I may upgrade at some point. With these upgrades do you trade your PS4 licence plus fee for the PS5 version or do you keep the PS4 licence?
Guessing FC25 didn't sell as well as FC24 then? Have people finally given up on buying annual sports sims or is this one just terrible compared to previous years?
It's only free in terms of material cost. They will be getting other things from you instead. I will still probably sign up. The sooner they can use my data to clone me the sooner I can get my clone to go to work and I can play games all day.

Very good. Romeo is a Dead Man being the big highlight for me. Minimal exclusives it seems so a good show for everyone.
Re: State of Play Confirmed for 4th June, 40+ Minutes of PS5 Games
