@thefourfoldroot personally I'd prefer a non wired system even if that added to the cost ,playing with the oculus after psvr proves to me just how limited the psvr is ,in terms of software available,freedom and control,im sure their new controllers will be a much needed addition,they need to blow peoples minds as its getting trounced by the quest lately ,they've really lost ground with vr in the last year.
@thefourfoldroot 'massive huge monumental downsides to wireless' like what ,the oculus is wireless and ive never had any issues with it ,whether its connected to my pc to play half life alyx or standalone playing beat saber ,with a wire youve always got that constraint ,its always in the back of your mind ,you can't do a full turn without it wrapping round your neck,wireless is the way to go,maybe the option of both for those who want the total freedom that wireless gives you ,playing the climb 2 in the garden is the type of experience I dont really want to give up, I dont really want to do home improvements to make my experience better.
@thefourfoldroot and that is use to me how ? Wireless is a game changer and totally adds to the experience, I just feel a usb c connection wouldn't really be very secure,it also limits the possibility of certain games , at least theyve gotten rid of those god awful move controllers ,let's hope they include hand tracking too.
I love vr, what I dont like is setting up all those wires, I cant even leave them in as it turns off hdr,so I bought myself an oculus ,its fantastic ,the psvr has better textures in some games but the oculus is far crisper and clearer ,and the hand tracking is way above the psvr ,I look forward to sonys next offering ,just wish they made it wireless.
Fought the second boss last night,ixiom or something ,good god the bullets nearly gave me an fit,he had half health left and did me,just needed a health pack and wouldve had him,the game isn't impossible you know what you have to do ,but face a boss without full perks and youre knackered
Remaster it and give it away free on ps plus for ps5,the only problem i had with it was, that on the xbox it looked like everything was smeared in vaseline,ps5 would rectify this.
I thought it was alright i quite enjoyed it,better than I thought it would be actually,kano was great and I liked scorpions back story ,but the lead....ugh
Physical copies have always been cheaper than the ps store ,so why in this generation are they not ,returnal is the same price in store as it is on psn,whats going on there then,there usually 10 quid cheaper ,which I think 59.99 is a fairer price.
A number 2 position is fantastic for this type of game ,im glad its doing well ,think they've missed a trick though not including any sort of multiplayer, im sure the community would lap up a versus mode ,selene copies flying about one of those challenge rooms or give a couple of players control over monsters and they can spawn the little ones and take control over the larger creatures ,would be cool.
@Uromastryx yeah I dont disagree ,just wish the option was their for people ,maybe disable trophys i dunno but at least they get to see all the game,personally I don't find it as hard as demon souls ,I cant even kill the tower knight 😂
@Juanalf yeah quick resume is only great when it works,some games don't,some game crash when resumed,the idea is good but at the moment it isn't the greatest thing as of yet.
@Uromastryx because games of this ilk are usually not this good and usually not 70 quid,so id say saves should be implemented to some degree they don't have to take anything away from what they envisioned, also I'd go as far to say they're should be difficulty sliders in all games , if demon souls had one im sure the game would sell more ,who cares if its not what the dev intended, its our money and we should all be able to get all the enjoyment out of a game, regardless of our personal circumstances.
@2cents yeah same thing happened to me ,on biome 1, I was near the 1st boss after dying 6 times , totally powered up with some great consumables ,attacked one of those big things with the sword that look like they take steroids,it only took 3 hits but the game froze on the 3rd ,wasn't pleased.
Great game ,I dont mind its set up and its not as hard as I thought it would be ,but I just had a crash when I had really levelled up and had some cool stuff,not happy.
@God_of_Nowt yeah I find their videos interesting but I take what they say usually with a big fat meh,and fanboys don't half love their videos with inane comments of one-upmanship.
Jesus,and this is why people buy playstations, their developers are far beyond any 3rd party devs ,I dont know how Sony runs their in house studios but they must look after their staff ,nobody puts in this much dedication if they don't like where they are working.
I hope they're working on a elder scrolls killer ,they're far more talented than bethesda ,300 hr first person rpg is what I require ,maybe set in the resistance universe.
@God_of_Nowt thats disgusting ,but to be fair £70 is a lot of money to a lot of people,to berate people for saying so, with the reasoning that they don't pay as much for medical care is a bit silly,the fault of americas health care is their government, not some fella from the UK on minimum wage.
@Dezzy70 yeah I didn't pay nearly half a grand for BC or last gen games, I understand 3rd parties will for the time being still release on last gen ,but 1st party should concentrate on ps5 and series x
@bpomber I dont really use reviews as a definite,I use it as a guide and take what i want from it ,I've bought 6 and 7 rated titles because I like the genre
@TheDudeElDuderino yeah I'm not a fan of games like that either ,but you don't lose everything and from what I can gather there's portals that can speed you through the level if nearly completed.
@Nepp67 the only thing I've heard mentioned is the rain and you feel it on the controller ,probably other things too dunno,the triggers are well done as well apparently ,half press for standard fire ,full press for alt fire.
OK im sold ,been watching some previews and it looks so good ,loving the features and the rogue elements and procedural gameplay look really well implemented.

Re: Official PlayStation Magazine UK Canned, PLAY Branding Resurrected
@thefourfoldroot you'll probably get enough for a new game ,so not loads of money ,but better than just sitting there if you're not interested.

Re: Returnal Impresses with Particle Effects and Smooth Performance in Technical Breakdown
@God_of_Nowt unfortunately its not why people watch it,its a matter of point scoring ,after all its why DF do a lot of versus videos 😏
Re: Housemarque Acknowledges Request for Mid-Run Saves in Returnal
How about random save crystal drops or something one per biome ?
