Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 625

I got my ps5 Pro yesterday (my wife went and got it from argos for me) so yesterday was a looooong day at work. I'm really quite a manchild so I had to send @Sanquine a photo of it sat in the car taunting me..So today I'll be playing marathon and finally starting AC shadows with the ps5 Pro upgrade. Why not GT7 I hear you all shouting? Well I forgot the pro dosnt have a BR drive so I've got to buy one before I can play it. Next week it's psvr2 time. Have a great weekend folks..I know I will👍

Re: Hands On: Crimson Desert Runs Well Enough on PS5 Pro, But What About That Intro?

@Stocksy I remember way back in the day when I bought road rash 2 on my megadrive. I loved that game and when I finally completed it the game just hung on a green screen. Nothing to do but reset and restart and again upon completion another green screen. Upon contacting EA support via phone (no Internet back then) I was told it was a bug in the game and all copies had the same issue. So yes the good old days where games shipped complete without need for patches didn't always work 100%. At least company's can patch their games these days which is good I guess.

Re: Round Up: Crimson Desert Reviews Are a Major Disappointment

@KundaliniRising333 I'm glad you are looking forwards to this and I hope you enjoy it. I'll wait and see as I'm enjoying M******N too much and between that and my rallying obligations I don't have time for anything else. The way you getting bashed about a bit here is a bit how I was getting bashed for defending M******N and telling people the truth about how the game is. Let me know how this turns out but let me know via psn as you'll just attract more flies here.

Re: Cyberpunk 2077 Finally Gets a PS5 Pro Patch Very Soon

Jesus this game is cursed for me. Everytime I clear a little space and have some free time to play this game another update/upgrade is announced that makes me wait that little bit longer to play it as the universe intended. Guess I'll be waiting a few more weeks until I get my ps5 Pro then..sigh..

And when Modders replace textures and upgrade character models in skyrim and god knows how many games that allow it we never hear any complaints about artistic integrity etc,etc,etc. I'm not really sure what all the furore is about to be perfectly honest. Ahhh it's because it's nvidia and this being a PlayStation centric site they are all aboard the AMD ship..

Re: Starfield's PS5 Release Seems Practically Inevitable at This Point

@GirlVersusGame I bought no man's sky day one. It was hard to fathom out what was going on and as much as I found it intriguing after around 20 or so hours I was starting to get a bit weary. I left it for a while and then when the first major update arrived I played it again and it was a different game. Then I got my ps5 and the difference between the base ps4 and ps5 was quite staggering. I'll be picking up my psvr2 headset soon and I can't wait to play no man's sky through it again. Starfield would have been on my radar if it was anywhere near as good as no man's sky..but its not..its not even in the same galactic post code.

Re: Review in Progress: Marathon (PS5) - Bungie's Extraction Shooter Is Brilliant, and It Only Gets Better

@Jeremist78 sorry I didn't reply but I don't seem to be getting any PS notifications. If I'm solo I use the rook shell just for restocking loot etc. I don't run anywhere unless I have to and I do crouch walk in POI areas as to not make so much noise. I try not to open doors too much as they make a lot of
noise and alert every damn thing that wants to kill you. Patience rewards unless you end up in a squad of mini rambos in which case good luck.
