It's like they will try anything except what we want; the ability to pick a nice colour theme and proper folders for installed games like we had on the PS4. They can keep the game lists for a player's collection, it shouldn't interfere with having real folders for installed games...

...and themes....or at least colours....

Nice, but can we have real folders...what would it take to implement....5 years in...

@TheDudeElDuderino hehehe... Brexit has a lot to answer for....

@LiamCroft
Hi Liam, any chance of listing the prices in Euros? Many readers live in Europe.
We rarely see prices listed in Euros on this site.
Thanks.

Colour schemes, proper folders like the PS4 had, quicker game and trophy synch.

Proper game folders, more storage, stable 60fps and 30fps games at 4K (frame pacing), hardware enabled ray tracing, PS3 backwards compatibility ( allow us to download and play the digital PS3 games we purchased), a cleanup and curation of the PS Store and finally proper integration of the smartphone PS App with the console.

I usually grab something from my wishlist that is heavily reduced in a sale...but my backlog is huge...need to retire and play games;)

@johnedwin
Hopefully for the better...but I wouldn't bet on it...

Years.... understandable in this economy/***** show/end of days 😆

@folgin
Nice review, thanks for mentioning the UI and performance issues...one for a sale when they have it running smoothly.

Tis in the eye of the beholder...some games like Death Stranding 2 are photorealistic, others like Rachet and Clank are like a Pixar feature and then you can have something like Fez or Journey which are also beautiful...tough question to answer;)

What a douche....

Sue them for identity theft and defamation of character.

Thanks for the heads up

Sony should bring PS3 emulation to the PS5 or PS6, stock the modern Ps store with PS3 games and let us download our old games which we paid for.

It's been very good this year

Only played the demo, but it made me think twice about it's place on my wishlist...one for a very deep sale...even after all the fixes it's still a rough game...

Wait for a sale

@Westernwolf4
It would be lovely to take a year off just for games...

Yeah, it still doesn't make it right

Sony need to give us access to playable versions of all the digital games we bought on the PS3.
Build an emulator in the PS5 or PS6 that allows us to play the games we bought.

30fps would be manageable if the frame pacing was rock solid, but it's all over the place...making it a nightmare to play... please give us a locked 60fps with proper frame pacing.

Woohoo....great month🙂

Essential for me, had Premium for a bit, but was not using it enough to justify the price...these days I just buy games when they are on sale...

@ZeroSum
You'd be surprised at how much easier games are when running at 60fps with consistent frame pacing.
Hopefully they patch it.

It would be great to have access to all the games we bought on Ps store for the PS3.
Sort it out Sony.
Even via streaming, we should have access to these on any level of subscription.

What a complete *****!

What...a Chinese company rips off Western IP...that is new
Only messing....they rip off everything...I wouldn't mind if the copied items were better than the original...but usually it's not the case.

Bad company 2 mixed up with BF4 as mentioned by others...that would be great

Any chance of a Euro price drop or information?

Don't have it yet in Ireland.
Would prefer the option to have an overall colour theme chooser - the dark grey is truly awful.
Would also prefer to have the PS4 version of folders.

Rubbish clone of Splatoon with heavy monetisation...pass

Great game, still give it a go now and then....

Give us real folders and theme colours....how hard can it be?

Amy idea if Sony Direct will ever come to Ireland?

Where are the Original disk drive versions?
Thanks for looking after us Sony....

Bye bye Herman baby.

@Bizzy thanks, I may give it a shot

Sony seem to be determined to screw up in their home market....are the executive team stupid, incompetent or both....

@sanderson72 yeah it seems like 1 step forward but 1/2 a step back with the PS5.
We should not be losing functionality as we go to a new generation of console...the PS5 has been the worst offender on this.

@BiosNova it will struggle on until the PS6

@get2sammyb
Thanks for the excellent guide.
This looks great, perhaps the UI for the PS6 can take some pointers from this.

@BiosNova
It connects after a few minutes, but is a pain in the ass.... everything else in the house connects instantly...so my network is fine...

Can we have a Euro price added to the poll?
It's absolutely nuts to pay €950 for a console, stand and Blu-ray drive.

Please can we have:

• real folders
• ability to select a colour theme for the UI background, start up screen, settings screens
• ability to change the font colour of the UI
• working background game updates
• a fix for the ***** network card that takes an eternity to connect to the internet

Way too expensive for the gains it offers, plus the lack of a physical disc version and stand is a real let down.
Surprised Cerny agreed to do the video when he knew the pricing would be shown at the end.

I wonder if they are testing the waters with this for the PS6...Sony could be thinking of dropping discs altogether and charging a high price...

Looks great....wish it wasn't a rogue-like

Not surprising...it's no Splatoon
