Re: Resident Evil 2, 3 PS1 Ports Disappoint with No Trophy Support on PS5, PS4

windxtravelerx

@carlos82 both RE games appeared for me as free download. I bought one in one account and the other in another account, back when i was playing on my PS3, and i still managed to grab both for free (since i still have access to both accounts). I think you're doing something wrong or maybe you bought the game in another account, but they're definitely free if you already own them. Maybe you got them already. Anyway, check your purchase history because you can definitely get them free

Re: 'We'll Continue to Evolve the PS Store': Sony on Making PS5, PS4 Shopping Better

windxtravelerx

Since the last firmware update on my PS5, I've been experiencing a lot of CE-108262-9 errors, especially when browsing the PS Store. The whole thing crashes, kicks me out of the store and the system notifies me that it sent a report to Sony. It happened once while playing a game, which promptly crashed my whole system and made the console turn itself off and once this also happened while i left the console a few minutes idling in the home screen (it also turned itself off). I've seen other users on Reddit complaining about the same issue on the last few weeks, so I'm not the only one. I'm pretty sure this is a software issue but i don't want to reinstall the system, because i don't want to lose all my saves and i refuse to pay for a PS Plus subscription just to do that

Wishlist isn't working. I have to use the PS app on my phone to see the games

The store is FILLED with garbage asset flip AI slop ***** that i refuse to call games, a lot of them being shameless copies of games that are only available on Steam, to the point where the devs of the original game have to report these ***** to Sony so they remove them from their store. This is embarrassing. I can't go into the "add to your wishlist" section of the PS Store without almost throwing up because 80% or more of the games there aren't even games. I mean, some clown made a scam based on that stupid "Tralalelo Tralala" chatgpt crap where you move a cursor from one side to the other side of the screen and everytime you do this you earn one trophy. By this point i think it's fair to say that Sony has surpassed both Nintendo and Steam in terms of horrible shovelware crap or at least they're very close of achieving such feat

They raise the price of their games in Brazil, they raise their PS Plus subscription prices, they remaster a bunch of games that no one asked for and yet they can't even maintain a decent level of quality on their own digital storefront, which is the place where they probably earn more money nowadays on a daily basis...

Re: Ghost of Yotei Spotlights the Yari Spear in Latest PS5 Gameplay Clip

I'm still playing the first game. I actually had to take a break because it was getting too repetitive for me. I like repetition sometimes, and it's often unavoidable in such games like this, but i think there are other games that did repetition better. I also hate hate hate that the first game have this stupid fog of war map that you have to walk everywhere to clear it. It makes my OCD go wild and i feel forced to walk for 2-3h around like an idiot with my horse just to clear the map. I tried stop doing it but i just can't. That's why i already have +45h in this game and I'm still in the second region and barely made any progress in the main story

I just hope that they at least remove this fog feature in the next game so when i buy it, i won't get crazy

Speaking of buying, this game is costing 400 reais (Brazilian currency) now, which is more expensive than the 60-70 dollar price in USA. At first the game was costing 350 reais, but a month ago they raised the price on most of their 1st party games. I think we all know the reason, but i don't want to delve into this kind of subject AT ALL.

Anyway, since their games is so expensive now in Brazil, i don't have a choice but to skip them all and then (hopefully) get some decent deal by getting physical media around here. Hell, i might even get an used copy now. That's why physical media should never die

Re: Mafia: The Old Country (PS5) - Historical Crime Story Runs Out of Ammo

Just wanted to know about performance on base console and it does look like it runs kinda OK. Always good to know that performance is being mentioned in the review and it's taking the most popular hardware into consideration instead of just focusing on the premium hardware. I'll take the PS Store overall "review" (4.44 rating based on +6K reviews at this moment) over this one, though.

Re: Eye-Opening PS5 Sales Data Reveals Why Microsoft Is Porting Xbox Games

windxtravelerx

The only Microsoft port I've bought until now is Hi Fi Rush. I was going to buy Oblivion Remastered but i found out that the game is filled with crashes, stutters and horrible performance issues. Not gonna give my money to Microsoft for doing this half assed remaster. Thought about getting Age of Mythology Retold but apparently this game also has technical issues. I wanted to pick up Doom The Dark Ages but I'm aware that performance on both PS5 consoles are worse than the performance on Xbox Series X and i don't have a TV with VRR support, so...

If Microsoft keeps doing these ***** ports, then I'll skip all of their games

I'm waiting to see if Gears will run fine on PS5 because i love this franchise, but I'm sure as hell won't be pre ordering this game

Re: Square Enix Admits It Lost Final Fantasy Tactics' PS1 Source Code

windxtravelerx

I was going to buy this one, but then i heard it won't have The War of the Lions content on it, so I'll skip it. And since Square Enix is releasing every PS game in every platform (for financial reasons) I'm still waiting for Bravely Default games - including the remastered one, which until now is EXCLUSIVE ON THE SWITCH 2 - to be released on PS5. After all, they're the ones saying that they're focusing on releasing more games on more platforms...right?

Re: Xbox Backtracks on $80 Price Tag for The Outer Worlds 2 Following Public Outcry

windxtravelerx

Let me state this in a very clear manner for all of you: this game is now costing 400 reais (brazilian currency) on PS Store, which is NOT the equivalent of 70 dollars. This price is the equivalent of 80 dollars. So, you might me wondering, how much was the game before? Did the price change at all? Yes, it did. It went from 450 reais to 400, which means the game was priced higher than the usual, for reasons i can't explain, and yes, I'm talking about the standard edition. I don't know why the price is so high in Brazil but this change didn't benefit us at all, we're still getting ***** by Microsoft, regardless

Doesn't matter, though, I'll skip this one, gladly. Also, Microsoft has been doing a ***** job with their ports on PS5: Doom Eternal performance is worse on PS5 than Xbox Series X, even on PS5 Pro; Age of Mythology Retold is ***** on PS5, with horrible performance issues (according to reddit), Oblivion Remastered on PS5 received most updates way after Xbox did (until the last update, where the game was finally patched on the same day in all in platforms) and so on. I won't buy or support their stuff if they keep doing ***** like this. The only Microsoft game i got to this day on PS5 was Hi Fi Rush

Re: Rumour: Sony Engineers Allegedly Helping Rockstar Achieve 60fps in GTA 6 on PS5 Pro

windxtravelerx

Never heard of this guy before. Anyway, with only 10% in CPU boost over the base PS5, i think it's unlikely that this will be feasible, especially if the game is CPU bound (which it will probably be). Frame Gen techniques can help, but they're ***** if you're trying to hit 60fps, so you need something above that to get a decent performance without too much input lag and strange on-screen artifacts (Black Myth Wukong is a perfect example on how not to implement FG on a game), which means the game should at least hit 60fps natively for that to happen and you need a higher refresh rate than 60hz. 30fps to 60fps isn't gonna work. You can use VRR with a 120hz refresh rate to kinda help the situation, i think, but having a game like this to hit close to 60fps natively so it can run at a framerate higher than 60fps to avoid input lag and other ***** is too much for me to imagine. Anyway, I'm OK with 30fps.

Re: Helldivers 2 Xbox Announcement Prompts Avalanche of Spider-Man Port Begging

windxtravelerx

Can't see this happening, but if it does, I'm 100% getting a decent PC or even buying the next gen Xbox in 2027 (or whatever the year PS6 comes out). The reason being that both Xbox and PC sell games cheaper than Playstation does in Brazil. Why spend 400 bucks in a game if a year later said game will be released on PC costing 100 bucks less? The Outer Worlds 2 is costing 455 bucks on PS5 and 400 bucks on Xbox right now...

If Sony wants to "earn more money", then I'll save me some more money and we're good

Re: Reaction: Helldivers 2 on Xbox Signals Another Unexpected But Not Overly Surprising Shift in Strategy from Sony

windxtravelerx

@Oram77 that doesn't mean that there might be deals with Sony and the studio responsible for making each of these games that we don't know anything about. With Bloodborne might be one kind of deal, with Demon's Souls might another one entirely, and so on and so forth. So, again, there's no guarantee about what exactly happened unless someone from Arrowhead confirms that. I won't change my mind on that unless someone from the dev team says what's going on. You can think whatever you want, though, I'm not trying to convince you of anything, i appreciate you could do the same. Thanks

Re: Brazilian Gamers Infuriated by Sudden PS5 Price Hikes

windxtravelerx

Capitalism, right? As a Brazilian, all I'll say is, I'll not but any of these games unless they're cheaper than 200 reais from now on and if Sony keeps doing this then I'll skip the PS6 and get a PC, since they put their games on PC 100 reais cheaper than on console (or for free, if you know what i mean). They're going for the most positive and profitable route, right? Only fair that we, Brazilians users do the same thing too

I've been playing on Playstation since 2003, but I'm not loyal to a brand, at all

Re: PS5's AI Slop Shovelware Has Hit a New Low

windxtravelerx

This isn't even the worst kind of asset flip AI garbage game. The worst ones are the scams that try to copy famous indie games that aren't on Playstation yet, such as REPO or Mouthwashing. I've warned some of these devs in the past about this and they reported the game and they were taken down eventually. Sony is getting lazier and lazier

Re: PS1, PS2, PS3, PS4 Themes on PS5 Will Leave Tomorrow, But Sony Is Working to Bring Them Back

windxtravelerx

Wow, what a surprise, actually two:

This is the first time since September (the month Astro Bot was released) that i, as a base PS5 owner, feel remembered (even though this feature should not even be removed in the first place, and what i really wanted was the logo and sound that appears when you boot the console...)

Something that has nothing to do with PC

Yeah, the bar is very low at this point
