Not getting anything extra from me, especially that I almost exclusively do single player.

Last time I ever paid for any extra content was for the additional single player ‘episodes’ of GTA IV (though would admittedly do so again for GTA VI if and when ever releases).

@riceNpea To be fair, my fiber optic equipment (for lack of formal term) installed outside of house is from around 2012. While my wireless router is same age and definitely predates Wi-Fi 6. Guessing has to do with inferior connection.

(personal sob story warning lol)

The only PlayStation portable I ever had was the original PSP. Got stolen out of my locker at work along with installed 128MB Memory Stick and game progress.

Even though not Sony’s fault, left a void (especially the irreplaceable game progress) that I could never overcome by simply buying a new unit….And as a side note, those UMDs took painfully for-ever to load.

more on topic

As for the ‘Portal’, I can see crashing and burning. Entirely dependent on a stable Wi-Fi connection (which can be reliable as the weather).

Maybe not a fair comparison, but I had tried likewise mirroring my PS5 on iPhone 13 Pro. Even with 80 megabit down internet in same house as console, connection would always lag and eventually quit.

The sudden demand I would say has much to do with PS cult following. A similar first party Xbox mirror would not be flying off the shelves.

Just a few days ago nobody seemed to want one. Odd.

My ‘Essential’ sub is stacked for another 3½ years. Really wish could get a free taste of Premium so that could test streaming quality for PS3 and older games (that or make available for download).

The usual MLB / NFL / NHL sports trio on PS5.

Also got a free trial of NBA 2K24 (on Xbox). Seems decent enough this year to maybe buy on sale (likely for PS5 where still have wallet funds).

Pretty much like choosing who has the best pizza in NYC or Rome. Comes down to personal preference, followed by needing to narrow down to only one at random.

No. I can get an even larger mirror at my local dollar store.

I have all three current gen systems (Switch included). Prefer the PS5 out of all, but hope all three ecosystems / brands / companies / etc. don’t go anywhere.

Finally was able to score one April last year (a little late to the party). Only ‘complaint’ I have is that the inside probably needs a good dusting, which I am too lazy and more so unskilled to do.

Seemingly all games available on both systems (including Xbox but not Switch) sell for PS5 at a higher ratio. Can tell simply by comparing number of retailer user reviews.

Primarily sports titles. MLB 22 (don’t care for 23 as much), Madden 24 and NHL 24.

@AdamNovice And will unfortunately set such a precedent for future ‘AAA’ titles.

I won’t believe will even release for PS5 (or current Xbox). Or PS6 / PS7 /PS8 and so on.

Will not believe of any next GTA until formally released.

Sure it’s for the PS5 and not PS25 or PS125?

@WaveBoy PS3 game cases were nice given their kind of unique size, rigidness, and having “Blu-Ray Disc” imprinted on the plastic. (And of course the discs still had active recurring function.)

NHL 24 (much improved, at least in my opinion).

MLB 22 (23 was a letdown to me in comparison)

Uncharted 2 - very close to completing

Just got over a big enough problem at the house concerning real ants. Think I will be avoiding this one lol.

I’m still working on Spider-Man 1 for PS4, as well as Miles Morales ‘collecting dust’ on my SSD.

sooner or later………

Glad to see the user-swappable battery feature is being retained. Sony could and should be doing the copying here.

On PlayStation; MLB 22 The Show, as well as just finishing up Uncharted 2.

@BrockSmith At the very least I’d like to take on the final boss, “Sepiroth” (think that is correct from what I originally remember - did not look up).

My PS1 and memory card are long gone. Maybe there is some way I can fast forward in the original untouched game. Will look into it.

I bought FFVII on launch day in 1997 for PS1 (as well as BradyGames paperback guide).

Made it very close to the final boss fight, then just abandoned for reasons I honestly can’t remember.

Wonder if is worth playing any of the ‘updates’ / continuations on latest gen hardware.

No longer having a paperback guide will take away some of the nostalgia for me.

Does anyone here use a SSD more than 2TB? That’s what I have, while it’s less than half full. (My stock internal also has around 200GB free.)

I have around 30 games in my PS5 (PS4 games included) library.

Unpacking is already on Xbox Game Pass (and I am gaining many Microsoft rewards points by playing which makes the service free for me).

Disclosure: I (also) have PS5, along with PS Plus Essential.

I have ‘EA Play’, which includes a 10-hour trial of the game? If I play during the weekend promo, wonder of that still counts against my 10 hours? (Can’t find a specific answer on that.)

MLB 22 PS5. (I have MLB 23 for XSX via Game Pass, but would say has more glitchy gameplay than 22. Also, the graphics on 23 seem to be a touch inferior.)

Guess still nothing compared to 160GB NBA 2K23 (which is particularly ridiculous for a sports game - that sucks IMO, no less).

@Gamer83 Having an exclusive NFL license (‘Madden monopoly’) for almost 20 years does not help.

Wish Legend Bowl had a left / right camera view option.

Can’t hurt to email them with request contact(at)superpixelgames(dot)com

Not for me. Have my Switch (and an endless backlog of games) when I feel like playing ‘remote’.

Never played any game on the list, other than MLB 23. Spider-Man ‘1’ on PS4 as well, but certainly not at all this year.

At least there seems to be something for everyone.

At least fix the gameplay first. 2K9 (no less on a now-relic console) IMO was far superior to the current offering.

I have neither (and own all three current generation consoles). Still have to play FF1 to FF6 via pixel remaster. Waiting for a sale on that. Also want to play X/X-2.

All the while will likely never have any interest in Diablo.

Was watching a video (not related to gaming) recently taken in a parking garage in Tokyo. Not one single American make vehicle. Japanese seem to not have much interest in U.S. companies.

Not saying good or bad, but rather just the way it is.

I wasn’t one of them. Actually need to play at least X / X-2 first.

Originally I got X for PS2 upon release way back when, but didn’t like as wasn’t the same as VII. Everyone said should give a chance. Soon I will (and now much enhanced / extended for subsequent gens 😀).

I have the SN850 2TB that bought for about $280 US a year ago. Don’t think there is any need for me to upgrade.

Especially since I have over 1TB still free, and mainly use it for storage (I almost exclusively play games directly from the stock internal, transferring as necessary).

And just wondering, how fast does expansion SSD need to be? The PS5 GPU / CPU / etc. does have its limits.
