Good news, even if it just reduces load times. I have Deluzxe edition, so nothing to lose. I would rather the news had been the addition of THPS3 levels though!!

Unless it's wireless it's a hard pass from me. Sorry.

@Daleaf cool, so you used a code someone else could have had, even though you knew you wouldn't like it? Nice one.

The cosmetics in the 'season pass' are indeed dreadful. I just get them and quick sell them straightaway. You do also get plenty of packs in each season though to be fair. I enjoy FUT, only play offline and have never spent a penny on it. And, yes, I don't have Messi or Ronaldo or any legends, but I still have a damn good team of 85+ rated stars purely from earning packs etc, so I don't see it as a bad thing. Apart from the monotony and grind sometimes.

I really really REALLY want to like NMS but every time I load it up I get faced with another planet that looks like all the others, with not much to do on it, and ten minutes later I've quit again to play something with more 'direction'. Maybe it will click one day.

Might have to go back on this with my daughter. Might be fun!

I say this on every article of this ilk, but I'll say it again. Does anyone really NEED to play Ratchet & Clank, or any other game for that matter, THAT BADLY, that they can't just wait a year or two and buy it for £20, rather than £70? Surely if you buy digital, that's the way to do it isn't it? Most people's backlogs are big enough, or there are enough quality games they've probably not played that are always cheap in sales on the PS Store, for them not to need to rush out and spend £70 on a game on day one?

The only game that I buy each year at near full price is PES or FIFA to satisfy my football urge. Anything else, nah. I can wait and buy it for £10-15 usually.

The stadiums need to be smaller, it just feels empty at the moment.

It's really annoying and just ruins it for gamers. Much like the whole licensing thing between PES and FIFA.

I keep watching videos like this wondering what I'm missing. They all look the same to me! Sorry!

Bought it for £3.99 once upon a time, played it for all of 10 minutes and now it's sat somewhere in my library never to be seen again. RIP but you won't be missed.

I have FIFA 21 and recently bought the Star Wars bundle in a sale (Fallen Order, SWBF2 and Squadrons for £40) and my son has PvZ so have no interest in anything else on there to be honest. 79p is worth it though for most people to play through a couple of those games!

@TheIdleCritic to be fair you can usually get Mirror's Edge Catalyst in a sale for about 79p anyway!

Fortnite and Pele. That has to be the weirdest collab yet in this game!!

Have Hitman 1, never got into it. Don't have the patience for it unfortunately.

I tried it. It was OK. Probably won't play much more than the hour I spent on it.

@DeepSpace5D no way an Indy game could be FP surely? Not interested if it is. I want to see him in all his glory as I manouvre through booby traps etc!

@KidBoruto can you imagine? Uncharted, but with Indy instead. That would be a knock out!! Exciting!

Bethesda more renowned for first person games. Please don't let Indy be that. Has to be third person. I want to see him in all his glory when I'm controlling him. God, this excites me. I love Indy!

@Bad-MuthaAdebisi you say 'garbage' but SWBF2 is now an excellent game, Jedi Fallen Order is really good and Squadrons is decent as well. In fact, even the first Battlefront still gets played by my son and I on occasion. I'd say EA have actually done pretty well with Star Wars to date.

I always buy digital. Too lazy to swap discs around. If you could install from disc and then not have to use the disc again maybe I'd buy physical because of resale value, but I don't buy games day one anyway, always a year or two later when they are £15 or less, so not too bothered about resale.

If we're being honest, the new UI is worse than the PS4, isn't it? Anyone who didn't bag a PS5 yet, don't worry, it's not all that. It's quieter, loads some games a bit quicker, and that's about it.

Quick resume on XBOX is far better than the cards system on PS5.

I preferred the bigger tiles/thumbs for each game cover on the PS4, rather than the little ones at the top like on PS5. And the fact you can't sort into folders etc is frustrating. Why are you taking features AWAY?? Surely you should be addingto existing ones?

@Hanbaga why would anyone even pay most of these 'sales' prices in the first place?! I jus bought Star Wars BF2 and celebration upgrade for a combined £14. Now thats a sale price! Would never pay full price for any game. In fact, I'd never pay more than £15-20 for a game. Happto wait for a good sale.

Cant see any of this sale. Store doesn't work, even PS Prices is going down for me!

Who cares really, just don't buy it. You didn't have the option at launch to double your XP, and you still bought the game, so you don't really need to spend £10 on it now, do you. Just show some restraint.

I'm so glad I'm not a fan of first person games, as I never had any attention of getting this. Feel even better about it now.

If CDPR can encorporate a third person aspect into their patch, I'll consider it!

I don't care how much money it's going to cost Sony or CDPR, refunds should be given. Yes, CDPR are the ultimate guilty party here, but Sony actually gave it the go ahead to be put on the store so they share a huge part of the fault as well.

"Greed is good"!!! - Gordan Gekko

I can't believe a company could destroy it's reputation that quickly but CDPR have managed it with ease! And they keep on digging the hole even deeper.

The Witcher seems a long time ago now!!! Personally I think it's kind of funny, what with there being so many gaming snobs when it comes to Ubisoft and EA etc. "Our hallowed CDPR would never operate like 'those' companies, they push out quality product". Hmmmmm.

Gee, this game causing epileptic fits now seems like a lifetime ago what with the s*** show that's followed!

Not for me. Work is stressful enough without having to deal with idiots online as well.

@Makina that doesn't cut it, sorry. Needs to be taken out, changed or switched off by default with the ability to turn it on.

I have epilepsy and can tell you, waking up from a seizure feels like you have been hit by a bus, you have no recollection of what happened that day, and your tongue is bit to shreds. In summary, it's not fun.

If there is an element in a game that can specifically cause that, it shouldn't be there. As most epileptics will agree, we know the risk of playing games but most of them are generally OK. This sounds like it isn't.

I'm epileptic and I also don't really like FPS games, so even more reason not to get this!

I have just started getting into FUT on FIFA 21 having avoided it all these years before. Difference is, I don't really GET it, and I don't play online so have no care about having to get the 'best' players. It is massively thrilling to unlock new packs though, or spend the coins you've earned through playing to get new players etc. For the life of me though, I can't imagine why anyone would want to pay money on it. Can someone enlighten me? What's the point? I don't really 'get' FUT anyway if I'm honest. Like, I have some decent players but the only ones who are actually effective are the pacy ones. So why spend money on those that aren't? And, whats the difference between a Champs League version of a player, or a TOTW player or whatever? Just market value, or are their stats better?

And, ultimately, this chemistry thing. Does that make your team play better if it's higher by increasing the indiviual players stats? If so, I've not noticed any difference. And it just restricts who you can have in your team anyway, because you have to have the same players from the same league or nationality. I want to mix things up!!

@OneManDroid this is one of the things I still don't understand about modern gaming. Why release a game full of bugs? That game will get reviewed on the day it's released and, if the reviews are terrible, it will be yesterdays news and no one will ever hear about it once it's been patched and got better. Sales will probably take a big hit. Surely it would have been better, sales wise, if the game was released in a good state from the start?

I got one delivered yesterday after adding it to my EE phone contract! Only trouble now is that it has to stay in it's box until Xmas as it's 'for my son'!

@J2theEzzo I second your admiration for Broforce. Great game. My son loves it too. Plays it with his friends and they are all nine years old!

I have both subs. Don't really play online but my son plays the odd game online so have it for him. Wouldn't bother me if I didn't have it. And, to be honest, I don't really play much of what's on Now either really. But I do like the choice of being able to if I want.

At the end of the day, you can purchase both of these services for a combined £70 in certain sales, which works out about £5 per month. That's not too bad considering everything that offers. It's half of the cost of Netflix or Spotify.

Maybe Sony should offer them as a bundle for that amount or thereabouts, I'm sure most people would be happy to pay that, wouldn't they?

Unless there is a AAA for about £12-15 or an indie for £3-5 then count me out. No sense paying these prices when you can wait another year (and work on the massive backlog) and get them way cheaper.

Never buy physical, haven't for years apart from the odd football game.

As much as I hate these scalpers, I can't but also hate these morons who are paying these prices in the first place. Why?! Just wait and feel better about not giving your money to a scumbag. Especially for something as superflous as a controller charger!!

I have to question the players motives here when they would surely be fully aware that their likeness has been in both FIFA and PES for, in Ibra's case, about 15-20 years now!! Why the sudden interest?

My worry is that it gains traction because, although some people don't care about faces and names in the games, I personally feel it adds to the immersion etc. A player with a generic face pulls me right out of the game. I guess in PES it doesn't matter so much because you've always been able to edit the names, but FIFA you can't even do that.

Could have a huge shockwave across football games if this goes anywhere far!

A seemingly glowing review - addictive etc and then....

5/10 'Average'???

Should you buy it? I think the more pertinent question is, did you manage to buy it without having to pay a scalper £1000 on eBay.

Yeah but how many did the scalpers consequently sell on ebay for double the price?!

No download link on the web based store and error message on the phone app. Brilliant. Great start Sony.

If I purchase the PS5, presumably I can still use the PS4 as it was the day I 'left' it? His grandparents want a console round their house for when the kids stay over, so the PS4 with all the games I have on it already would be perfect, as long as I can just copy them all across to the PS5. Would there be any issues with primary accounts etc?

@Rob_230 I'd happily take that as well, more than happy to pay for games when they are as good as this. No microtransactions, no rubbish, just well made fun!

A great update, that a lot of people requested. Good that the developers are listening to the community and another reason why this game is awesome. Hopefully they listen to the overwhelming desire to add THPS3 in as DLC as well, even if it's paid for. Would make this package the real deal.

@PegasusActual93 cool, I'll hold them to that and can't wait to not be disappointed!

@thefourfoldroot but if you can (supposedly) play most of your PS4 games on a PS5, why would you keep the PS4? It's just more room taken up. IMO its better to have EVERYTHING under one roof. An all in one entertainment experience. I don't want to have to switch leads, discs, change channels etc. That's why it's important to me that Sony gets the BC thing correct. I just want to buy a PS5 (I'd wait but my son wants it!) and be able to play new and old games seamlessly, all of them!
