Re: New PS5 Firmware Update Available from Today in Phased Launch

@KilloWertz Yes I know?? I did just explain how it worked for me above, do you mix me up with Belmonts post at the start of the thread??
And no, all games on internal drive doesn't update automatically at all, not if they haven't been played for quite some time.
Point is, I know how it works, I was just trying to help Belmont so why did you single me out to "teach" me ? Just curious.
Edit: And I don't agree with your take on the external drives, that is not how my PS5 is working. ALL games on my start page update if they release a patch, no matter where I installed them.

@belmont Yes I think the total savefiles your allowed is 1000. I had to remove a ton of Driveclub saves back in the day because they bloated up the cloud. Now I only have one plus the gameprofile with all the stats saved.
Check if you have some old saves you don't like and delete them for good, better to have new gamesaves then old that you will never use. (probably).

@belmont "After all those years STILL PS5 DOES NOT UPDATE GAMES AUTOMATICALLY for some reason"

Not true my friend, it updates all games on start page automatically, but if you have like me, almost 6 TB of games installed it will not update the games in my library unless I start that perticular game in question.
During the last week my PS5 have autoupdated AC Shadows, PoE 1 & 2, Diablo 4, GoW Ragnarök when I turned on my PS5.
Maybe it doesn't work if you put it in sleepmode, that might be a bug. But it should work even then.
TLDR: It works.

Edit: Have you checked under system Settings: Automatic Updates under Saved Data and Settings for games/apps??
You might have turned it off by accident?

@breakneck "No offense but I have zero trust in him. He is the reason so many Santa Monica devs are getting harassed on Twitter right now."

And sites like this, PushSquare, that pass on his ramblings just like he is ever right about anything Playstation. They are just as much to blame to be honest.

Re: Video Game Industry Caught in a 'Vicious Circle of Death and Rebirth', Says Helldivers Boss

"failing to cater to the increasingly diverse tastes of the gaming population at large"

I just preordered Deliver At All Costs, a perfect little "lay lazy in the summer with my portal-kind of game" releasing at the end of may '25.
Not every game need to be enourmous blockbusters a'la Death Stranding 2 or AC: Shadows. For me gaming is a perfect mix between all of the above, just missing Sony's 3rd person adventures lately. Guess I can sort of count in Death Stranding 2 in that category?

Re: Ex-Xbox System Seller Starfield Edges Ever Closer to PS5

I don't support M$ in any way, shape or form. Buying up studios so they can bruteforce their way onto PlayStation, no thanks. And demand you have an M$account attached to your PS5 , hell no LOL. This site feels like a new xboxsite for people like me that have ZERO interest in xbox and their crappy games. And as I'm in a group boycotting U.S as much as possible due to Trump and his regime, it's even easier to ignore M$ and all of their (imho) boring games. Hopefully PlayStation starts to deliever soon. 🤷

Re: Xbox Plots a Catalogue of AI Games, And It'll Probably Use Tech on PS5

I still need to see proof of actual A.I in 2025!! So far it's only programs that are doing what they are told in the code. Actual A.I = Artificial intelligence. I see no proof of actual "intelligence" in todays programs. But they are great at copying others work without permission.
If we all could stop calling it "Artificial intelligence" until the "intelligence"-part is actually true.
Todays so called A.I is more or less a "random code generator" within set frames and not much actual intelligence.

Re: Housemarque's New PS5 Game Will Be a Little Less Punishing Than Returnal

"(Also, sorry you had a ***** experience with Returnal, I really love that game.)"
Thanks mate. For the first part, see below please.

@OptimusPrime1

I had actually left this thread for good last night as some of the last comments started to lower my IQ.
But for you guys I make this one final post just so I don't feel I leave it feeling "rude".

No I don't have the link since I deleted it. It was on Chrome on my workPC so it doesn't save deleted items in my apps. (security issue)
But I know the post was made on the EU PS blog before the merge of the EU and U.S blog in 2020 (that happened 2020 if I remember correctly.)
I hope that somehow make it easier to find in that internet archive of yours. I'm know nothing about searching in those, but if you'll find it, please reply in this thread and I surely come back to discuss it further.
Until then, I'm done here. Adios o/

Re: PS Plus Copies of Days Gone Won't Offer Cheap $10 Upgrade to New PS5 Version

Zeke68

@Enigk Your welcome ✌️🤗

For anyone else wondering if you can update it for ten bucks, if you have a PSplus subscription, use PC, go to your Profile picture and click on "gamelibrary" in the dropdown menu.
Here you can see all the games you own and the ones with a PS + is claimed monthly games and/or PS plus subscription games.
All games without the +sign is considered owned and and can be upgraded with $10 upgradepath if available.
I hope that helps.
Edit* LOL was typing this in a car and the word on Playstation Store was deleted somehow

@ChrisDeku My link to orginal PS blog says "this post is archived" so no luck there. My private emails with them will never be posted on a site like this so you can believe whatever you want as I can't show you anything at the moment. Hopefully I have a screenshot backup somewhere, but until then, it is what it is sadly.

Re: Housemarque's New PS5 Game Will Be a Little Less Punishing Than Returnal

@Brundleflies21 I don't know how to make this a short explanation, but while I on one hand agree with your entire comment, on the other hand you must realise that even the creators behind Returnal made a PS Blog post about how the game was unintentionally too hard for some players. When you install the game it makes a "worldseed" setting up your game and it can be "easy" (not really) like 1 out of 10 or it can be like mine, more like 9,10 out of 10. No matter how much I play it, I never, like NEVER get any higher level weapons!
And reinstalling doesn't help as they explained in that post, as the world seed is forever attached to my PS account. Stupid design for a trophyhunter like myself.
They tried to fix it with patch 2.0 I think it was, but that didn't solve the bad weapondrops on my account...
I contacted their support and they really really tried to help but in the end it was just like: "sorry dude, it sucks but you're f**ked"...

Re: PS Plus Copies of Days Gone Won't Offer Cheap $10 Upgrade to New PS5 Version

@Enigk "With these upgrades do you trade your PS4 licence plus fee for the PS5 version or do you keep the PS4 licence?"

Just checked Horizon Zero Dawn and I got both "Horizon Zero Dawn" PS4 and now Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered PS5 after I did the $10 upgrade last year.
So you should keep the old game.
Just checked Last Of Us Part 2 also, same thing, got both new PS5 version and my original PS4 version.
All bought digitally by the way

Re: Poll: What Did You Think of Sony's State of Play for February 2025?

Zeke68

99% was sequels, rehashed ideas and just plain boring imho.
Saros was the only thing that caught my attention for real. And I will buy the 10$ upgrade for Days Gone Remastered so we might finally get a Days Gone 2!!
Game studios need to stop copy eachother to death and start making innovative fun games again in my opinion.
Lies Of P: Overture could be a hit too, but I need to see more before I make up my mind.

Re: The Order: 1886 Dev Pitched a Sequel to Sony, But Was Denied

Zeke68

Great but too short game. I replay it now and then just for fun. The PS4-era was my favourite for sure. This game, Driveclub, Bloodborne, Uncharted 4, Last Of Us 2, Horizon, God Of War (2018) and so on. Win after win the whole generation. I loved it.
PS5-era... well, one day we get some games of that caliber on a regular basis I hope
