So heres the thing for me. I've said it in the past that "Β£70 is to much for a game and I wouldn't be paying it to get the game at launch" and to some degree i still stand by that. But, this looks amazing, as I knew it would and I've just preordered it. The reason why is because of Sony's 'play at home' give away. I picked up 2 or 3 game from that which I didn't have and as a thank you back to Sony for the money saved on them and in support of insomniac, I'm quite happy to pay the Β£70 this time. So thank you Sony for the gifts ππ»

Oh, sorry sir, yes sir, what ever you say is correct sir, your the better man sir cos you can afford 3 PS5 sir????? You tool ππ». With an attitude like that, I hope you loose your job on Friday for calling in late and can't afford to pay for any of them and you and sons all miss out. Or better still, the shop goes bump and takes your money and you cant get any more to replace them because others have order them all ππππ» you cu*t, give your head a wobble will you.
I got mine from Amazon uk, I tried to get 2 but it would only let me buy 1. All retailers should have to cancel any multiple orders to the same customer, at least this would give others a chance. I know VERY in the UK let me add 1 of each type of console to the basket but i ended up going with Amazon instead. Anyone who complained about this would obviously be someone who had multiple orders π€·π»ββοΈ
Been playing most of the day and as a gamer for 34 years, all i can say is wow. I just can't believe what has been achieved here on the hardware its running on. The facial animation on the characters is astounding. This also has to be some of the best water shaders ive ever seen in a game. All what ive seen today has been simply breath taking and i know ive not even started to get into this game yet. On a side note, its also made me jump out of my skin twice already and a game hasn't done that in many years ππππ» Love it.
@icecube
No worries really. I've been all digital on my PS4 as I've got a PS Vita, which I used for remote play. I went all digital so all my games were always available without having to switch discs. My PS4 Pro has 6Tb of storage. 2 internal and 4 external. So at any time, if I want to play any game I have, it's always on the system and ready to play straight away, no waiting for installs from discs or downloading again from PS store. Just a quality of life thing really. I don't think we should have to think in advance if we want to play a game because it has to be reinstalled/re downloaded. If I want to play a game I already own, it should be available straight away. This started to be an issue when games had to be installed to internal hdd due to read speed restrictions from Blu-ray discs.
So basically, if I'm playing the last of us part 2 and decided I want to play a quick game of Tetris or something, as my PS4 is set up now, i can. But if Tetris wasn't on my system, i would have to either wait for it to install from disc or download.
But if these were both PS5 games, as i understand the PS5 set up, Tetris could be stored on my external hdd if i didn't have enough ssd space internally, but would need to be transfered to internal ssd to play it. Obviously, there's going to be the option to add internal ssd storage to the PS5, but im telling you now, these internal ssd drive will be very expensive, think between Β£150-Β£200 if not more.
I think Mark Cerny tried to get across that people having to redownload their games wouldn't really be to much of an inconvenience. But i think people with poor internet speeds would disagree with that. I just think it's a nice idea to be able to have all the games you own for the system ready to play straight away when you want to???
@icecube Yeah i know that. What i mean is, as you dont have the option on the digital edition to reinstall games from disc if you have to delete them, would they double down on internal storage to save you having to redownload your games. There is also the option to store ps5 games on an external hdd as we know, but i wonder how fast transfers will be back to the internal ssd???
Either way, im pretty sure they wont be giving more storage space on the digital edition as its that custom, it would cost far to much to sell ππ»
I think this is going to be pretty difficult decision for playstation. As pointed out by Digital Foundry, a uhd drive, in the full fat ps5 would probably only cost around Β£20 or something. So if Playstation is to drop the digital edition Β£100 cheaper than the full fat to make it look a better value, they would be able to easily make that back by the sales of software from the ps store. But, then you have the storage issue. So do they double the ssd storge size to 1.625tb for the digital edition but then this would probably make the digital edition cost more?? Id personally be going all digital, just like i have with ps4, cost depending obviously??
As much as its gunna kill me to not buy at launch, I can't have that white one in my entertainment center, it will just look to much out of place for my liking. The design is fine, but not the color, we should have the choice of an all black version at launch. Im sad really. #ps5
@Thifran I would imagine the server is getting hammered with everyone trying to download it. Also they have restricted download speeds due to the covid virus so its also taking people longer to grab theirs who have been able to start the download. Maybe leave it til tomorrow or something pal? ππ»
@MightyDemon82 I had this when i had transferred something to the external hdd and then unplugged it from the system. All sorted itself out when i plugged it back in??
@Dange I got to a point where i had 150ish GB left on my hdd but couldnt download anything. It turns out the system keeps well over 100GB free for some reason, i think for recording gameplay and things? I ended up buying a 4TB external?
SO, What if the outer casing, ie the white bits, are just cases that can be changed for different colours, including the touch pad??? I remember seeing a recent patent showing the pad being interchangeable??
I just hope the console isn't white, unless you could also change the colour of the casing, as its just gunna look rubbish inbetween all the BLACK items ive got in my entertainment center. Black is a timeless colour and doesn't age where as white equipment comes and goes over time.
I would seriously have to consider putting off my purchase if the console is not all black. The controller im not to worried about being black and white, like the PSVR, but the console has to be all black for me?

Does anyone have a bug at the beginning of the game with the subtitles staying on even when turned off in the options menu??? I've got a clean install of the game, downloaded from the UK ps Store using a PS4 pro on the latest firmware update. I have turned the subtitles off at the very first chance but the subtitles are still displaying randomly??? Anyone else confirm this and also if this update fixes it??? I've been holding off playing because i really hate subtitles as i find them really immersion breaking and dont want the experience of Arts dream ruining. Thanks, keep safe everyone π·
Just hold both triggers to stop him falling when going down hill. I was playing this last night on my pro and the cut scene frame rate was really really bad. Just looked really jumpy/stuttery, game play was fine but was very immersion breaking??? Strange as I didn't really notice this the first time I started the game. I restarted as I hadn't really been taking it all in first time. Gunna try again later???
So, I've just watch this again and although it's states PS4 pro enhanced at the beginning, there is no mention of "all footage captured on PS4 pro hardware" as they usually do?????? I'm thinking this must be PC footage and may not look this good on ps4's or pros??
@get2sammyb yeah but the thing with Spiderman is that it isn't made by a first party development team. All third party games are priced at Β£54.99 for the standard edition. First party games are usually Β£49.99 for the standard edition?? And Spiderman is clearly listing both editions in the PS store to pre order right now. So where is the God of war standard edition??? The one without all the fluff at the cheaper price which people are clearly wanting??? It's not right. Are you saying all future first party titles are only going to be offering the deluxe digital edition??? Look forward to hearing your thoughts mate? Have you been in touch with Sony for clarification on this?? Cheers.
Sammy, can you please try and find out if the UK will be getting the STANDARD digital edition of God of war to download on launch day? Why are customers not being given choice when it comes to the digital download from the PS Store? Surely this can't be right? Is this going to be the norm going forward. I understand the deluxe edition may only be a few quid more and you get the extra bits, but over the course of buying ten or so games, these extra few pounds would mount upto the price of an extra game? Cheers mate, keep up the work and I cant wait to play the game! The reviews have got me even more hyped to play
