And the fan goes wild!

I’m a little worried.. I’m playing Control: Resonant atm and for ***** n giggles I put it on Balanced (40fps) for a few minutes and it just felt so wrong.. even with my Pro and OLED LG C5 77”..

I went ahead and preordered it anyway cuz it’s GTA ffs and we all know they’ll continuously update it

🤞 here’s hoping rockstar works its magic

Looking forward to this for sure

Yeah trophies aren’t why I play games.. if it’s easily obtainable then I’ll do a little extra for a Platinum.. but in most cases coughcough AC:Black Flag coughcough I say f*** em especially when they’re poorly implemented and rely on RNG 💀

I have no idea who or what ‘Lisa’ is but that controller doesn’t look good at all imo.. guess it’s time to google some stuff

@JohnnyShoulder guess it won’t hurt to pop it in a give it a try.. my 37 year old ass just “discovered” 60fps early last year with Jedi Survivor and I can’t go back 😭

This game looks so beautiful and fun.. I hope they get GOTY.. but I’m waiting around for 60fps with VRR on Balanced at least..

I have Pro and a LG C5 77”.. does that help with frame rate at all with this game? I’m still going to buy it once physical comes but I may sit on it for a while

I bought it to support the publisher but 30fps made me stop playing.. I tried though

I’ve been so excited for this one but DF has me questioning whether or not to pick it up when the disc is available.. I have a big LG OLED and a Pro but if it’s not a steady 60fps on at least balanced, then I think I’m going to have to wait as long as it takes..

Got my first Switch 2 (Zelda Edition) on its way and I know I have a good backlog going with Nintendo.. on top of that we have GTA 6 (I preordered that one regardless of fps because it’s timeless)

@Athrum Right lol at least I’m not alone

@CielloArc unfortunately, Ai is here to stay.. but imo as long as 90% of the designs and artwork are created by real people, I don’t mind some Ai being used to speed up development or to make background/unimportant things..

Game looks fun as hell and I’m really hoping it plays 60FPS on my upcoming Switch 2 (I have a pro but this screams handheld Nintendo to me for some reason lol)

@ShadowRJ cuz Sora goes Boom Boom in FN lol shotguns and all

AI or not.. this is pure nostalgia and I’m cautiously optimistic about this game

This just makes me want a new Burnout game.. looks pretty tho

20 hours for the campaign is good enough.. never played more than a few minutes of the Fable games as a kid as we were a PlayStation household and only one of my friends had SuXbox..

But I can guaran-GD-tee you I can stretch that mf to a good 50+ hours the way I explore open world RPGs lol

AC Blag Flag Resynced on my Pro and OLED… still has the Ubi-Jank but god is it beautiful

I’m hoping it’s optimized for PSSR 2.0 to hopefully get a 40-45fps

Game looks great but I haven’t been able to get past a couple hours in RDR2 due to the frame rate 💀 I tried 4 years ago and 8ish months ago.. just can’t do 30

I’m sure it’ll be optimized 100x over by the time I’m ready for it but fast driving, blowing stuff up, gun fights, and all that going on together just sounds like a jittery mess

@Reeneman id be 100% content with that.. also knowing that they’ll never stop updating this game.. at least not for another 20 years.. this was always gonna be a digital buy for me even before the no disc bs.. game is already timeless

It said ‘On PS5’ instead of ‘On PS5 Pro’ so I still have some hope.. beautiful game and looks amazing.. but really choppy.. still amazing how they fit all this in and it’s not 10fps lol so I’m definitely impressed.. just hope PSSR 2.0 can give it a bump 😎

No Stage Tour love? 🤔 looks 10x better than the last showing

This game already looked janky imo.. the graphics were okay but only slightly better than the Witcher 3.. the UI/movement looked so outdated.. and now the Pro version won’t even be 60fps.. oof.. not looking good

Is it really all that bad stealing from a crook? They sleep fine at night I’m sure.. any other instance I’d be against leaks 100% but making fans wait this long for any bit of information at all is scummy.. no one else is spending billions and 13+ years on one single game.. a company that has milked so much money from so many addicted fans in GTA:O can’t give us an update more than once a year.. gaslighting us the whole time..

I don’t feel bad for them and I know it won’t matter in the end but I’ve already decided on ditching all consoles after this gen and moving on to a system that isn’t 100% monopolized (PC).. I know my lost business won’t effect anyone and I’m happy with that.. but fewer options for my favorite hobby isn’t okay with me..

Never tried Mods anyway.. they seem.. intriguing

I would kill for a DG2 announcement 🤤

Welp that sucks.. was going to preorder Friday for my birthday but considering all of the other games in September and GTA coming out November I’ll probably just wait for a sale next year.. it is what it is

THIS JUST IN - Rich guy says he buys everything digital

More at 10

Thanks for the heads up.. but oddly enough I was able to claim DL2 last week.. great month finally

Idk if anything has changed in the past few months but this game UI looked super dated when I last saw it.. LOVE The Witcher 3 and I also love vampire stories.. but this game looks clunky.. idk about $70 either..

Hope im wrong but if im not then oh well.. too many games coming out in the next 3 months

I can look past the anime crap if the worlds are amazing.. PLEASE let there be some good worlds 🙏..

Id also love if they patched KH3 for modern gen before this release but I know that’s probably a pipe dream

I’m gonna be eating good on my Pro and OLED hell yeah.. glad my base brothers will get an awesome experience too 🤘🏻

Anime cringes me out but for some reason Kingdom Hearts holds a special place in my heart from the PS2 era.. the different worlds are just so amazing and fun and beautiful.. makes me feel like a kid again.. Guess I need to brush up on my Disney movies cuz I haven’t seen any new one since Frozen lol I’ll watch whatever worlds are confirmed that’s for sure

I tried KCD 1 I really did.. I put 4 hours into it and I’m a patient gamer.. Death Stranding 1 took me 2 10 hour sessions to get into it then I was obsessed.. KCD 1 just has so much jank that I just can’t do it.. looking forward to trying KCD 2.. maybe it’ll click this time..

Hell Is Us and Helldivers both have been intriguing me as well.. I’ve heard recently that the latter has gotten toxic..

Best month they’ve had imo in years

Between all the DLC and the main game I put 285 hours (one play-through) into AC: Valhalla after my moms death.. it was there for me during a very depressing and dark time in my life.. I’ll always hold it dear to my heart for keeping me busy with allllllllllllllll the fodder and repetitive fetch quests and collectibles..

But I never want to play that game or any other as bloated as it ever again ffs.. as a HUGE AC fan, I have but one thing to say to this news..

fml 😮‍💨

I’ll 100% have to see some trusted reviews first.. the rubber banding has always been a problem imo..looks fun with big DLC probabilities

Just saw it with the wife and they gave us 4 little Spider-Man pins.. my favorite one yet.. usually the MCU just likes to put too many big characters/villains into one movie for my liking.. this one felt just right..

The new Avengers movie looks like a convoluted mess and imo the new F4 outfits and actors are not good matches

@LifeGirl Sony is PlayStation.. Sony also exclusively own the rights to make Spider-Man movies and games.. it fits the site perfectly.. you seem like a fun person 💀

Essentially forcing people to buy a PS5 before they jack the price of the consoles up to be ready for GTA 6 coming out isn’t what I would call an honest well earned fiscal year.. as you Brits say “this is rubbish” and I call bullsh!+.. let’s see how well they do March 31 2028 when they try selling a $1000+ console.. PS have lost the narrative for real

@Old-Red There’s people like me as well who have kids and a wife for 16 years.. I buy digital occasionally if there’s a good sale or if it’s a timeless game (GTA - Mario Kart - etc) but 95% of all of my games I buy either second hand, rent from GameFly, or I buy it day 1 and sell it for half of what I paid a week later.. if I cant resell my games or get them cheaper physically then there’s literally no reason for me to continue with consoles.. and I’ve been a PlayStation fan since the PS1 came out.. it’s disheartening but as others have said “gotta change with the times”..

That’s fine.. I’ll start saving up for a nice PC 🤷‍♂️ life goes on and PlayStation have lost a customer

@ChikaBambus I think it’s mainly the broccoli hair kids who’ve been glued to screens since they were 6mo old.. never got to open up a surprise video game for Christmas and everything they’ve ever wanted media-wise was delivered to them instantly via the almighty and all knowing internet genies (or however the internet thing works)

Played Avatar before I got a Pro and a big OLED but never got the Platinum.. seems like the perfect time to get 100% considering I played it on release.. probably going to try the 3rd person view

Been looking for a reason to replay and finally Platinum Avatar since I upgraded to a Pro and an LG OLED.. actually a couple games look interesting.. never played the Ronin game due to Japanese fatigue so I may check that out

This 1 decent month of Plus Games does not take away from my immense disappointment in Sony though

As many here have said.. no one cares.. MichaelSoff has been spiraling for years.. a sh!#y company doing things (whether good or bad) doesn’t change the sh!#yness of said company.. Sony was already borderline sh!#y then they murdered physical media and became boldly anti-consumer

The initial p!ssed offness may have ‘died down’ a little bit but just like a woman who cheats on you - it’s gonna be heavily on everyone’s mind and it’ll never be the same again 😢

@OpheliaDynamight I have an almost 14yo daughter myself.. but can’t you agree that video games are far more important than our children’s lives?? My $2000 PS6 is gonna far more important than bills and offspring.. ALL HAIL SONY AND TRUMP!!!

/S 🤣

Boy I bet Bethesda regrets selling out to be one of the ***** step children of suXBox lmao.. it really broke my heart when they became ‘exclusive’ but given their latest track record the past decade, I say f*** em..

I have little hope for Obsidian and the new Fallout.. but at least it’s SOME hope.. I really love the look and feel of Outer Worlds 1 & 2 even though they left a lot to be desired in the end..

RIP Bethesda.. just hope they can get some of those guys to work with Obsidian cuz tbh TES has never been my jam.. hope the community gets what they’ve been waiting for though ✌️

@NoPhysicalNoBuy123 lol ty.. not my original words at all but spread the fun anyhow.. 20 years ago when I was in high school you’d get made fun of relentlessly if you even looked like you had a perm.. now it’s commonplace and ‘normal’ 🤦‍♂️

@D6rkLordS6t6n broccoli hair kids is a quick Google search but it refers to these kids getting perms so their hair looks like 🥦.. it’s not the difference in opinion that irritates me, it’s the lack of compassion from the other side being arrogant saying f*** discs and physical media altogether.. it’s those who don’t realize that this is going to make all costs rise on everything everywhere and not just video games..

I don’t collect physical games myself this Generation.. but I do buy physical, beat it/platinum it, resell it for over half the money I spent, and then use that money to buy the next game.. and that’s after I’ve let my one or two buddies borrow it if they’re interested.. I’ve borrowed their games before when I was broke.. my kids have a good 40 ps4/pro games I handed down to them a couple years back that they’re constantly playing..

Im not angry.. but I AM very disappointed along with all game devs and physical media collectors/admirers.. I’ve been debating PC for a decade.. not going to spend $1000+ on a PS6 when I can just invest in a high end PC.. this industry doesn’t look too promising these days altogether - I know we can agree on that

@MikeOrator it’s the all digital age broccoli hair kids I swear lol never got to experience the joy of finally getting a game gift wrapped for their bday or Christmas that they’ve been begging for for months

@PercyChuggs lol I’ve always found anime cringe af.. it’s about owning your own stuff.. it’s about preservation and preventing a monopolization so prices don’t get even more out of hand..

You’re 100% under the age of 30 and it shows.. so edgy and cool

@PercyChuggs you are part of the problem.. thinking physical media doesn’t matter.. oh to be so naive.. must be one of those broccoli kids

Edit: This will be a day one for me

@Oram77 because I was excited leading up to it only to read from multiple trusted sources that it was ‘dumbed down’ for a broader audience.. maybe the lengthy demo will change my mind.. still not forking out $70

I’ll likely play the demo but at $70 I’m not even close to interested.. full price for half the fun of Returnal the 🐐
