@ElectricWizard well it’s kind of true. A geezer found one of the consoles in a draw in an office. It was sold for a large sum apparently quel surprise. $360k
@ElectricWizard I’m led to believe some guy found 3 of them in an office draw once 😆 I’ve no idea if that’s a myth or gods truth but I swear I read that somewhere 💁
Had a pro since launch. Apart from the odd game with the shimmering I’m very happy with it. Regarding PS6 my bro sent me some rumours ‘apparently’ coming out of Sony saying it’s on track for 2027 💁
@KoopaTheGamer I don’t worry about them. But I would like these console manufacturers to stick around so we have choices. Really don’t want to end up in a situation where PC is the only option eurgh
@KoopaTheGamer do these people who are all crying about PS bringing back console exclusives go on NL and say the same things about Mario etc? Do you personally think Mario should be multiplatform. I’m guessing you think every franchise and every gamer should just be on pc and have access to everything? Because as a counter to that I would say I cannot stand PC gaming and would probably quit out of the hobby entirely
@DaPrince no it’s because I have a wife, kids and a job so my time is very much limited 🙈. Try to find the time for multiple platforms when you get 2 hours at best to game. A big reason I chose PlayStation and I suspect many other do too is guess what… the exclusives
@BAMozzy no I’m sorry real gamers love all types of games. How can you not see that. Also being able to see that exclusives add value to a platform does not make you a fanboy does it. Like I believe Halo should not be coming to PlayStation and I’m not a fanboy of Xbox. I believe it’s Xbox’s biggest franchise and should stay where it’s true fans are. A lot of people will buy an Xbox to play halo and if it’s the only place you can play it well there is the added value
@BAMozzy fanboys surely are the real gamers though. The ones who will buy multiplats and exclusives. Casuals who just play cod/fifa and gta are not the real hardcore gamers amongst us imo
The correct decision. Now Xbox should do the same. Exclusives are a big plus point to any platform. PC gamers don’t get it and pretend they don’t matter because PC never gets exclusive games
My first time playing Aladdin was the 90s! My cousins from London came up to us in the midlands at Christmas for a family party at our grandmas and we all sat on the dining room floor taking turns playing it. Happy memory that! Never knew there was a platinum trophy for it. I’m intrigued 😁
@Pigrotto thanks bud sounds glorious. I’ve been wanting to do this one since launch and when I saw it at that price I couldn’t resist. Looking forward to it mate have a good one buddy
This weekend I should be finishing my plat run on Roadcraft. Another huge grind from Saber interactive but if you like big boys toys like construction/cranes and big dump trucks I can’t recommend it enough. Also still grinding my paragon 300 level on Diablo4. Starting to get painful now 😁. Praying for double XP event soon 🙏
@Pigrotto hi mate. I’m looking at Hell is us for one of my next platinum runs. Picked it up from Smyths for £27 brand new. Is it as good as it looks and how does it run on PRO
@somnambulance oh I thought you meant honestly as in 🙈 😆. I checked the PS Store rating out earlier and it’s 4.74 which is pretty damn good but I’m not surprised. You can see the work that has gone into that game. Everything from the lore to the gameplay to the graphics. It’s all top tier stuff and I cannot wait to get started. Hope to maybe join up with others once I’m ready to go 🫡
@somnambulance I played the server slam and found it pretty difficult but why should games be easy. Plus this isn’t supposed to be call of duty. It’s tactical and requires thought. All said and done I rather enjoyed it after a few games and I too hope it’s successful and has longevity. That’s my take anyway 👍🏻. I’ll definitely be getting this once I’ve got my current two platinum runs finished. What’s the trophy list like guys? Difficult?grindy? Or simple
After seeing what PRO can really do with the recent upgrade to PSSR and resi 9 I’m absolutely sure next gen is going to be a bigger leap in fidelity than we’ve seen in the last 2 gens
@TrollOfWar I read a report from Sony saying it’s going to be a lot cheaper than people think, definitely cheaper than a PS5 pro. But that was before ramageddon so 💁
For me FH5 got boring very quickly with everything being throw at you as opposed to starting from the bottom. So hopefully the new formula in this one will be a better experience. I do prefer the competitive online racing in GT7 to arcade racers but I still enjoy them
@nomither6 I dont think ps5 output has been mediocre. I remember the first few years of PS3 when it was a desert of games. Then the second half of the generation came all the good stuff. Same thing happening here but PS5 had a stronger start than PS3 no denying that
@KoopaTheGamer why should we be happy with it though. I’m guessing you buy multiple platforms? I may be wrong but just a hunch 💁. I only buy the PlayStation platform as I haven’t got loads of time for gaming. So for my chosen platform I want it too succeed as much as possible so I know it will stick around and I think a big part of that is exclusive software. I don’t think that’s petty I think it’s common sense. I’d love a new uncharted btw. A thief’s end was just exquisite and I need more history based fiction 😆.
I also think Xbox putting halo on PlayStation is a travesty for the Xbox brand. Keep Xbox only!!
@KoopaTheGamer I genuinely believe it is. If sales numbers are so low on PC what’s the point of keeping them on sale there. So bring the full value back to PlayStation by making it the only place to play what are, let’s be honest, the best games in their respective fields
Good. I also believe the MS strategy of putting games on PS and Nintendo should stop. All it does is devalue the brands. Xbox has shifted nearly 40 million series consoles. That’s a healthy number. Just stop trying to compete with PlayStation numbers and do your own thing Xbox

@KoopaTheGamer awesome enjoy your Sunday my friend 👍🏻
Re: 'Sony Finally Understands': Over 70% of PS5 Fans Agree with Decision to Scrap PC Ports
@KoopaTheGamer yeah so what’s wrong with these platforms having there own exclusive experiences. 💁
Re: 'Sony Finally Understands': Over 70% of PS5 Fans Agree with Decision to Scrap PC Ports
@KoopaTheGamer I don’t worry about them. But I would like these console manufacturers to stick around so we have choices. Really don’t want to end up in a situation where PC is the only option eurgh

@KoopaTheGamer yes you are right it wouldn’t happen as it would devalue Nintendos hardware enormously.

@KoopaTheGamer no one is saying it hurts them. It devalues the platform. That’s the point.
