No interest in playing but might be interested in making simulations for my pool…. Is it available on EA Play?

@Sqush-Pare I think it’s not so much as mad as Sony as limited ressources and the more they put on PC the less they have on the console that people paid good money for… one can’t really argue that the PS5 output from Sony has been low and in the meantime it seems a lot of their announcement is around PC…

So is this indirect confirmation that future Sony games will again be cross gen as forbidden west was?

Unless the plan is to make it VR I don’t see the point, while I haven’t played Forbidden West yet the difference didn’t seem massive.

They should take a cue from Disney who are all updating their old cartoon with current tech and while it must make some money people hate it and got tired pretty quickly.

If they want to remaster things, I’d say nothing after the PS2 is worth it at this point (although I kind of want something related to Motorstorm I would much rather like it to be new).

"PSVR2 is designed to deliver a truly next-generation VR experience"

Does it mean the the PS5 is not a true next gem experience since it can play PS4 games?

@MidnightDragonDX To be fair it’s not like Sony is making it hard find flaws in their approach lately…

@SuperPotato316 Aren’t the PS4 and PS5 neck to neck on the amount of unit sold after their respective first 18 months? That amount didn’t prevent them from making PS4 exclusive back then.

@Northern_munkey I think the lack of exclusive is what makes previous gen still relevant platform, for all I care the PS3 could still be a viable platform on the power side as the switch is showing. Software drives hardware sales no console as ever been a must get platform by itself without software justifying it…

Hum… i guess it’s sting more because it seems to me like these are the only news we get from Sony lately…

Beside God of war release date it seems only PC got announcement over the summer. Maybe if we’re lucky PSVR2 will be compatible with PS5 and not just PC 😏

Edit : Oh I forgot the last of us remake, I guess it’s kind of new… then again maybe they only wanted to announce it for PC and then they decided to include PS5…

More and more I wonder why the PS5, almost at the 2 year mark and only first party exclusive that come to mind are Ratchet and Clank, Returnal and Demon’s Soul and that list seems more likely to decrease over the next 6 months than going the other way around…

@SinfulDestroyer Can’t help myself but thinking the same and then I wonder why I even bought a PS5, then I realized that buying a PC would have been much more expensive…

Still it’s the end of an era I guess…

So is there something to DLSS coming to PS5 at some point? Not necessarily for this game but it seems it would help widen the gap with the ps4/last gen…

Yeah another PSVR2 game if only they could give the hardware a release date…

@naruball yeah… Apple goal seems to only have original content so there’s that. Also I think the monthly price is about 1/3 of Netflix. While they don’t have much I can vouch for Ted Lasso, For All Mankind, Severance, Mythic Quest and Prehistoric Planet is quite well done too.

Every time I hear Sony and hardware I hope something related to PSVR2…

I personally don’t really mind this, but it seems that some companies are just in touch with what their consumer wants.

Wasn’t it some of the backlash for the PS1 Classic?

Hope they remember someday that split screen multiplayer is still a thing…

I guess I got little ahead of myself by buying it before the update…

But given they still work on cyberpunk, they begin work on Witcher 4, how much can they have for this?

@Kidfunkadelic83 Wonder I à buy these code if they’ll still work if I wait July to redeem them….

Just finished the game yesterday on PS5, grabbed it for 10$ a few months back knowing the problem but hoping things would turn around.

Had a good experience with it and would gladly get the expansion of the content is interesting.

I guess I’ll wait some more and hope for a bundle or game of the year edition at some point.

@suikoden Well it could give a chance for those other games to get the experience better, quite a few game aren’t on their best self on release so I guess I’m the only one to wait a bit before playing the new ones.

@BartoxTharglod Yes I think LCDs got it last year but not OLED yet…

Sony is in charge of pushing it to both my Bravia and PS5, hopefully the two will be around the same time.

@NEStalgia I see your point but I think you might be overthinking it, I don’t see Netflix as decreasing the value of my PlayStation because it not made by them, on the contrary, not having access to Netflix on my PS5 would decrease my perceived value of the console…

Funny a lot of people see this like Microsoft getting exclusives…. I see it more like Microsoft doing a power move against Sony to allow Microsoft to put GamePass on PlayStation.

Sony can either go acquiring big studios / franchise or simply pay close to nothing and allow gamepass on PlayStation…

Im no expert but lately I find Sony to closer to Nintendo than Microsoft in the way they play their card.

So just like with the NSO expansion pack, I expect that I’ll find the cost too important for what it is at least at first.

My biggest hope here is that if they get to emulate PS3 then I’ll be able to play the game I already paid for without further cost. There’s a few games I bought digital on PS3 that I’ve been meaning to play but don’t want to buy the PS4 version of dust of the old PS3… I just like the new controllers better.

Weird year I would say, it was my first year of PS+ since the PS3. I bought 2 year worth of subscription at the end of February as the service seemed on fire with games that interest me (TomB Raider, Control and FFVII where all on my wish list although I missed tomb raider).

Then it when downhill and haven’t got a game that I was looking for until Hitman and overcooked in September. Following recommandation I also ended up playing A Plague Tale which was ok.

The worst part for me was that not even 45 days in I was already getting repeats from the PS Plus collection which was a bummer as it was like lost main event game… Hopefully not many more games from the PS Plus Collection in the future…

@ShogunRok While I get your concern, I think that in this case the framerate was an artistic choice.

The fact that the framerate target 24 from what I read elesewhere makes it just more convincing as being a movie as most are shot at 24fps.

I remember watching movie with added frame on a previous TV to make it 60fps, it just made the movie look weird like it was shot on a home camera… In this case the fact that it’s 24 only makes it seems more like a movie and blur the line between wether it’s a video or not. I think this was the main goal and not so much to make it a game.

I might end up picking a few… I’m interested in picking up ghost of Tsushima, ratchet and clank, miles morales and last of us 2.

My only hesitation is that all these game are likely to go much lower or be given on PS Plus in the future and since I’ve skip the PS4, I have plenty of cheap game to play….

Decisions, decisions…

So I guess the PS5 will end up being the equivalent of a proprietary less expensive gaming pc if the trend continue at this pace and games are getting released so close after ps5 launch…

I don’t really mind I wouldn’t have bought a PC, but I’m kind of sad is PS lose their identity as a console. To me console war was less about exclusive but more about pushing boundaries and having different vision… My fear is that when everything is more or less the same the push for innovation to differentiate yourself and innovate will be slower.

@jingounchained Same here, hoping it’ll be backward compatible with the games from the current PSVR…

Any way to claim this if you’re outside the region like on Xbox?

@Dalejrfanfreak Hopefully something with the dualsense…. Maybe VR at some point?

Can’t help but think new consoles are somewhat underpowered for what was led to believe. It seems to always be a compromised between the 4K, the 60fps and ray tracing… When I look at the box of my PS5 where it says 8K; 4K 120, can’t help but feel a little cheated as I don’t see it ever happening as even 4K 60 is rare and that’s before ray tracing.

Nonetheless I’m having a great time with the console just wish I didn’t have such high expectation after marketing.

@AndyParkin79 This! I have a couple of ps3 games that I always wonder if I plug back the ps3 to play or if I buy the mostly identical PS4 version. I ended up waiting and wishing that at some point I can play them on PS5….

@danlk1ng Thanks for the info. Fortunately, on the PS5 I was able to select view product from the … and buy the game before EA Play Expiry.

Just took one month of EA play to try FIFA, downloaded a bunch of game including burnout but now it has a good sale. Anyway to buy it to own? It only says download to console but I would like to own it as I don’t plan on renewing EA Play.

@Durnford40 Dude you need to chill out. I have everything that you just named and that is why I had to skip the PS4. I’m fine with them releasing games for the PS4, all I’m saying is that as of now it just feels like having a PS4 Pro V2, but you also get a lot of crashes with the OS so there’s really few upside at the moment.

It was the first time ever I bought a console within 3 years of the release I was maybe just expecting to see more of the difference of a new generation in what will be likely 18 months of its release (assuming these game won’t release before April 22).

You know when you’re an adult and you can finally afford the things you wanted as a kid but never managed to get? Well this is this for me, it’s just not what I was hoping it to be for the time being. Sorry if that rubs you the wrong way.

Not necessarily lying as pushing the truth. I was lucky enough to get a PS5 back in March and honestly I’m a bit disappointed. I skipped the PS4 and getting a 5 seemed more logic than getting a 4 at this point. My view is that I would pay more than further down the line and deal with some oddities but I would be able to enjoy the new generation from the start. We’re now 3 months later and I have yet to play something else than PS4 games, ratchet will be my fist real ps5 game. The way I see it I get all the downside of an early adapter (potential hardware problem, higher price, bugs and inconvenience of the OS) but not the upside of enjoying anything really from the start as pretty much every game I care for the foreseeable future will be on PS4 too.

So if I want to play the first one which version should I get?
There’s 4 version on the Canadian PSN
Dying Light for 20$
Dying Light The Following Enhanced Edition 40$
Dying Light The Following Enhanced Edition - PlayStation Hits 25$
Dying Light Platinum Edition 34$ with Ps+ (135$ without)

Why so many versions?

@TheRedComet Funny, from my experience from my experience physical games from Nintendo hod their value way better than PS games... I'm the complete opposite of you...

I’m really hesitant to grab shadow of the colossus. What are the odds of it falling more for my triple dip? I still have about a third of the PS Plus Collection to go trough before needing it but at the same time it seems to be the lowest it gets (beside Ps Plus freebie) over the last 2 years…

@thefourfoldroot Digital trade back? Hum you mean short term like with steam or long term? Either way I wouldn’t hold my breath… let’s hope you got the disc drive version…

@luminous117 @Xenomorph_79 why assume that since you can’t use them now it will always be the case?

Anyone know if the movie are streamed like Netflix with a rotation or if they’re added to your account as long as you claim them within a certain period and then you’re free to watch them whenever you please? (Like it is for the games)

When you’re more excited by today PS5 firmware update than the spring sale...

Sounds a lot like Konami, no wonder Kojima looked elsewhere, must have brought bad memories...

Waste of resources in my opinion. Just played Left Behind from the remaster for the first time this week, and while it's not shiny with lightning and color as newer games it gives it a darker tone that suits it well... Havent played part 2 yet but the remaster didn't feel dated...

I bought a switch and until recently it was my only console but got mad of all the weird decision. Decided to get back to Sony because of all the thing that I missed with the PS4 but I’ll be honest while I do enjoy the PS4 content I’m starting to have some doubt about the future... To me me it’s not so much what Xbox is doing the problem, instead it’s what Sony is not doing, report of Kojima working with Xbox seems like a lost to me, closure of Japan studio too, a lot of hit and miss on their side for me but nonetheless some really good hit. Finally while I’ve yet to try days gone, and I doubt it for me, report of another Last of Us remake just seems like a bad use of resources/time and money (unless they have some magical way to just import it in last of us 2 engine and it doesn’t really take place of other project), just finished left behind remaster this week and it aged really well we don’t need the same game remade for 3 back to back generations...

They need more studios/bigger teams/exclusives and IP because with Bethesda Xbox will have a ton of project, Sony need fresh blood too, I really like naughty dog and company but at the end of the day while you make much deserved sequel, there’s no new thing to fallback on if momentum is lost on one of those franchise.

A guess it’s an OK month for some but being new to the PlayStation and having a repeat free game after only 1 month is a little underwhelming (got days gone from PS Plus collection). I don’t have much interest in the other game but might try odd world. Given all the free games from the play at home initiative kind of compensate for me this disappointment. Simply hope that the whole PS Plus Collection won’t simply end up being the foreseeable months...

@Ralizah Oh that would be so bad and make me regret having already subscribe for the next 2 years if I was to only get the game I already have, been a Ps Player for only 5 weeks now so it’s kind of sad to already get repeat free games...
