@SystemAddict best advice is give it a go yourself. People have varying tolerance levels for the issues pssr caused in some games. Plus, YouTube pretty much kills most videos due to compression. You may play a game and find them more pronounced upgrades, or you may not. We will find out more either way tomorrow.
@SystemAddict these games have been patched but the system wide toggle is releasing over this evening/tomorrow depending where you are in the world. Will be interesting to see how the toggle affects things.
@GamingGod im the same on silent hill 2. Massively enjoyed it but the 2nd half was a bit off putting due to the poor pro update. Looking forward to having another run through it.
Ive not played DD2 yet but will absolutely get round to it.
@GamingGod once the system update drops, apparently the system toggle will apply the new version to boost games with the original PSSR. Not sure how it will work out but if it does work well, id be annoyed with myself for not waiting 😂
@Steeleye25 I also met him at a live show in Manchester. Absolute legend of a man. It felt like he was more interested to meet me than the other way around.
Hey @get2sammyb, hope youre good man. Absolutely accept this is off topic, but...
Any rumblings on a release date for the system wide PSSR2 update to drop? I have a birthday coming up and the (FAR) better half bought me Silent Hill F. Im planning to hold fire to see if it fixes the known PSSR issues but, ill be honest, im pretty weak willed on that front.
@RBMango they only became bad when they didnt work for them. Funny that isnt it. I firmly believe each machine should have reasons to buy it that are only available on that machine. It drives innovation from everyone and that only benefits people that enjoy games over which box plays them.
Lets be honest, she has been promoted to the job by a chap who made xbox go multi platform. There is zero chance that nadela is going to put someone in that job who wants to now go in an opposite direction.
Phil spent billions buying studios to bring in gamepass subs. It didnt work. Now they have a new direction.
@GamingGod ahhh man, I can only imagine. I tried that undisputed the other night and there was a smudge on the tv where my nose had been. Literally acres of space and the smallest writing you can imagine in the middle.
I just dont get why they think they need tiny text in some games.
This was my game of the year but for the love of God kojima san, give me an option to make the text bigger. My ageing eyeballs just arent very good these days.
@Quintumply Hey man. Just thought id let you know that the upgrade is now showing up for those claimed via PS Plus. Just spotted this and installed it.
@My1 hey there. It wont actually clear the other storage if you manual rebuild for some reason though. Unless its changed in the many moons since I posted this 😂
I will hang off for a physical release as I prefer games on disc. Although it seems silly that to prevent disc owners giving spoilers, they will put them in a position to be spoiled by digital owners.
The cynical side of me feels that the fact they can charge more for digital and avoid cheaper sales, trade ins against a purchase, etc... may have a hand in this.
@Rich33 its more than likely the next xbox will just play the PC version anyway. Im more interested to see what happens when games like GTA focus on console releases first. Will they bother with an xbox version when, essentially, there wont be any need for an xbox version. What's the point of developing for a console that just plays pc games when you can save on your budget.
@DrVenture69 I have the C1 OLED and there is certain hdmi ports that allow for 120hz to be used. I use HDMI 1 on mine and it works so maybe try that. You want the port that says HDMI 2.1 on it.
In your settings go to general-HDMI and turn deep colour on for the port your PS5 is in.
Hope you get it sorted.
Also the game optimiser is a bit iffy and will display something like 99 fps so dont focus to much on that. Keep tapping the green button on your remote and a little frame counter will pop up in the corner of the screen.
Yeah, they base it on user reviews. Even so if you do the maths the 300m doesn't deduct Sonys cut. This may be the usual 30% but could be 20% if negotiated as some places say. Its still a healthy profit for MS but Sony benefits as well without development, advertising, etc... costs.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 623
Gonna finish off Death Stranding 2 and then i have Silent Hill F lined up but im probably gonna hold off for the PSSR2 update before I start that one.

Re: PS5 Players Can Finally Explore This Award-Winning Xbox Gem
@StitchJones bit of an odd conversation mate. You were proved wrong, had a strop and closed the door. A good day indeed chief.
Re: PS5 Players Can Finally Explore This Award-Winning Xbox Gem
@StitchJones while I dont disagree necessarily, it is technically award winning.
Re: PS5 Players Can Finally Explore This Award-Winning Xbox Gem
@StitchJones I mean, it won awards, so....
Re: PS5 Players Can Finally Explore This Award-Winning Xbox Gem
I thought game wise it was pretty average..... BUT!! The music and atmosphere is phenomenal.

@OldGamer999 ahhh, apologies my man, I misread what you were saying.
Re: Fable Has Been 'Targeting' PS5 for a While, Potentially Day and Date
@OldGamer999 xbox dont own Fifa my man, but its inevitable xbox would be the biggest publisher when they bought half of the industry.
The other side is that it doesn't really sell the idea of a new console to those at the top of MS when they make this much without one.
Re: Fable Has Been 'Targeting' PS5 for a While, Potentially Day and Date
@MasterChiefWiggum yeah, the best possible outcome for the pro is max 40fps if that.
