@zupertramp Take a photo with your phone and zoom in, worked for me.
Clearly I am a robot as haven't managed to get past the first screen yet! Update - I'm not a robot now and have entered my serial number but getting sick of identifying traffic lights, chimneys and cross walks .... sigh.
@AdamNovice totally agree, I was gutted to read no DLC for squadrons. Screaming out for more missions and experiences from past star wars films. Snow speeder taking out ATAT, or the trench run.
@SirAngry totally agree, EA are clueless! What about additional content (paid) allowing you attack the death star and do the trench run at the end of New hope. Fly the millennium falcon on Jakku etc. So many more examples and potential here. Depressing really.
@get2sammyb forgive me I don't understand. I own the PlayStation platinum headset and connect via Bluetooth on PS4. So this won't work unless I connect via USB or into the controller? So the Bluetooth dongle won't work?
I haven't completed the game yet but one thing I kept thinking was, I so want to fly down the trench like the end of Star Wars - New Hope and destroy the death star. I know the timeline wouldn't fit but O MAN that would be an experience!
It is a childhood dream to be able to fly an X-Wing and Tie fighter zipping past a Star Destroyer. A great experience much like holding a light saber and facing Vader in Vader immortals. I think this is well worth the money and I haven't had to dust off my PSVR TBH. RE7 is an incredible experience I agree but I would also add Astro Bot.
One of the disappointing things for me was the cut scenes take you out of VR and into this cinematic 2d cut scene which dampens the experience a touch.
The lad on the right won't have time for much crime fighting as he will be learning his Times tables and sucking on his mums breast. He looks too young.
Always looked great but beyond that rather ordinary games in my experience. All well and good pushing gaming technology to its very limit, let's put the same amount of effort with the gameplay.
I have a PS5 on pre order and currently I'm not committed to purchasing any games on day of release which is a real shame. I do have a real problem with a price of £70 and the only one on my radar at that price is God of war Ragnarok.
@Udy No my update failed and had to connect controller via usb etc. All back up and running now thankfully. Disc drive works fine. Sorry to hear about your difficulties.
@tweakin_frostyz I'm not boycotting the game entirely because of this practice. I find the series pretty dull, boring and crap tbh, that's the main reason. I understand I dont need to pay along with it and won't.
Thank goodness there are plenty of other games out there to play that don't contain this kind of practice. If they did I think my gaming days would be over.
I personally blame lazy programming and optimisation on the part of the developer!! The rear view mirror by default is turned off!!! When I turned it on because I thought it would be useful the performance was sluggish at best.
I just dont want to be constantly reminded about photosensitvity epilepsy all the friggin time I boot up. Option to accept and never ever be seen again would be a welcome menu option.
@Homo-Ludens I think my expectations were too high tbh. I didn't pick it up on day of release and I always read how many awards it had won, high review scores etc. etc. Just wasn't my cup of tea gameplay wise but admired the look of the release.

Re: DIRT 5 PS5 Gameplay Video Details Next-Gen Enhancements
Has anyone managed to test if the G29 wheel works with the PS5? Sorry if this has been mentioned but haven't seen it announced.
Re: Poll: What PS5 Launch Games Will You Buy?
There should have been an option for none. How many of those games would I purchase for £70..... yes none of them.

Re: PS5 Unboxings Reveal the Hardware in the Flesh
@AndyKazama totally agree. Too many spoilers and not enough surprises so I will wait like you:).
Re: Plex Will Be Available on PS5 At Launch
Plex is great and use it all the time, good news.
Re: NBA 2K21 Is the Next Game to Include Unskippable Adverts After Launch
I stopped playing street fighter on ps plus from the other month as it kept advertising the same up and coming tournament. So bloody annoying.

Re: Ghost of Tsushima Supports 60 Frames-Per-Second on PS5, Better Load Times
With all these promises of no load times I am going to miss those little creative animated load logos.
Re: Don't Expect Star Wars: Squadrons to Get Any Post-Launch Content
@AdamNovice totally agree. So much potential here. Trench run.... whoooo please.

Re: This Fan-Made Spider-Man PS5 Could Pass for the Real Thing
He has done a really excellent job and puts all those themed PS4 consoles released to shame. Give this guy a job.
Re: Phwoar! Here's a View of the PS5's Rear
I don't want any cable(s) coming out of the front of the console and ruining the sleak lines. Rather have 4 usb slots on the back.
Re: PS5's 3D Audio Will Almost Certainly Work with Your Existing Headphones
@Northern_munkey Just looked it up and you are right, thanks.

Re: Star Wars: Squadrons - This Might Not Be the Game You're Looking For
@BionicDodo Yeah loads more fun than the battlefront experience, more ships, levels ... just ace and find the score a little low imho.

Re: All PS5 Launch Games
With all the info on Ratchet and Clank I was hoping this would be a day 1 release .

Re: EA Causes Outrage by Advertising FIFA Microtransactions to Kids
Despite this news I am still picking up my copy of Star Wars Squadrons from Smyths on Friday for £5 less than elsewhere. Whoop

Re: Gamers Will Happily Pay $70 for PS5 Games, Argues Analyst
I have a PS5 on pre order and currently I'm not committed to purchasing any games on day of release which is a real shame. I do have a real problem with a price of £70 and the only one on my radar at that price is God of war Ragnarok.
Re: FIFA 21 Won't Have a Free Demo for the First Time This Generation
I'll wait till it's £1.50 unless the reviews are good and will bite at £2.
Re: PS5 Accessories Pre-Orders: Where to Buy PS5 Accessories
@Ridwaano I pre ordered my controller a Smyths for £49. It's now gone up to 59 in line with everyone else.

Great news. PS5 is looking even more appealing

Looking forward to spending my £10. Thanks Sony.
Re: Star Wars: Squadrons Gameplay Shows Campaign, Multiplayer, and Massive Fleet Battles
Impressive most impressive. Game play vid that's more like it!! Really looking forward to this as the little taster in Battlefront left me wanting.
Re: You Can Play the Entirety of Star Wars: Squadrons with PSVR
That's more like it. Looking forward to this release.
Re: Star Wars: Squadrons Brings Space Battles to PS4 This October
Pathetic.... 2 mins to inform and display the game and I am none the wiser. Absolutely speechless at the incompetence.
Re: PS4 Firmware Update 7.50 Is Available to Download Now
@Udy No my update failed and had to connect controller via usb etc. All back up and running now thankfully. Disc drive works fine. Sorry to hear about your difficulties.
Re: PS4 Firmware Update 7.50 Is Available to Download Now
Mine screwed up! I had to boot my PS4 into safe mode and installed the update from a USB drive in the end. NOT HAPPY.
Re: This PS5 Mock-Up Is Inspired By the DualSense Controller, and It's Gorgeous
Wish they would put all usb ports around the back of the console. X4 would be nice
Re: Valfaris Full Metal Mode Adds New Game+ to Excellent 2D Shooter
Missed this game in the news for some reason, looks very nice indeed. I do enjoy a good 2D shooter.

Re: You'll Never Be Able to Guess the UK's Top Selling Games of the Decade

.. very depressing but predictable reading.
What is great, I only own one of those games and it cost me £1.50.

Re: Rumour: New PS5 Devkit Leak Shows Console and Controllers
I hope it has as many USB ports shown in the image but around the back.
Re: Soapbox: Titanfall 2 on PS Plus Isn't Good Value for Money, But It's Still a Great Game
Stunning game and one of the best, if not greatest FPS titles ever released.
Re: Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order - One of the Best Star Wars Games Ever
Just imagine what could have been achieved if the Star Wars Jedi Fallen license was given to Santa Monica Studio Or Naughty Dog?
