Re: PS Store Must Copy Steam If PC Players' Campaign Against AI Content Succeeds

@ShogunRok I think that 90% of all workplaces that develop code, whether it's games, applications, services or whatever are using AI in their development and test pipelines at the moment.
It's only going to increase as AI gets better and cheaper. I understand the justified backlash against AI art assets and horrible slop games, but I think the conversation needs to be a bit more nuanced and less naive.

Re: The Witcher 3 Remastered Patch Specifically Targets PS5, PS5 Pro Problems

@Dogbreath
I think that before calibrating HDR on the PS5 at the OS level (not in game), one should turn off dynamic tone mapping or whatever it's called on a particular TV. Then for the first two calibration screens, click up until the star has just completely disappeared (not barely visible as the blurb says). For the final screen, click down until you can't go any further.
At this point HDR is correctly configured.
It's then a matter of user preference to leave dynamic tone mapping off or to turn it back on on the telly.
For myself I leave it off, the picture is slightly less punchy, but seems nicer to look at.

Re: New PS5 Firmware Update Is Available to Download Now, Here's What It Does

Folders and theme colours would be nice.
I'm sure it's not that hard to implement folders on the library screen for installed items. I have 300 games installed, so organisation is tricky at the moment.
The purchased screen has game lists, but games can be added to multiple lists and there's no indication that a game is on a specific list.
BTW, has the hidden list bug gotten fixed yet?

Re: 50+ Digital PS3, PS Vita Games to Buy Before It's Too Late

@get2sammyb thanks for the list. One thing that comes to mind in our digital future are the many PS3 games that we bought digitally years ago and now can't access unless we have a working PS3 console. Will Sony fix PS3 emulation on the PS5 and allow us to download and play our purchases?
