Just watched the ending for FF7 DLC, saved myself $600

Plus the storage unit costs to house a PS5.

Star War Fallen Order update is coming today. May consider revisiting, as the base PS4 one I played was ass-tastic.

HardcoreRetro · « **Reply #2103 on:** June 11, 2021, 08:48:16 AM »

Hasn't the PS5 update been out for months? Guess this is an actual next-gen patch.

Xbox Series X ran it at 60fps.

Svejk · « **Reply #2104 on:** June 11, 2021, 05:21:15 PM »

Kena looks pretty nice. Surprised this is a $40 game.

Coming to PC via EGS too.

Bebpo · « **Reply #2105 on:** June 11, 2021, 11:46:30 PM »

Ratchet looks fucking insane on the 30fps mode.

Can Naughty Dog go back to Uncharted? Please. Linear level-based AAA stuff going to look insane this generation.

Bebpo · « **Reply #2106 on:** June 11, 2021, 11:53:58 PM »

Also God of War 2 PS5 is gonna look so trash compared to Ratchet. Not only cross-gen, but the whole open-world fields/world style.
For Dad of War 3 they should just go back to being a linear set piece game on PS5 only to blow everyone away visually.

HardcoreRetro · « **Reply #2107 on:** June 12, 2021, 04:31:07 AM »

They'd have to overhaul their entire new gameplay system again for that to work. If anything the new style was already lineair setpiece shit, only now it's the "mature" cutscenes you get funneled into instead of the spectacle fighting cutscenes of the old games.

Svejk · « **Reply #2108 on:** July 01, 2021, 07:17:26 PM »

Bebpo · « **Reply #2109 on:** July 01, 2021, 07:21:13 PM »

JP lip-synch is a really nice addition.

I still haven't played Ghost beyond the intro but the lip-synch making it feel like watching a dub but in reverse was a bit jarring. Will finally get to the game after this version launches.

Human Snorenado · « **Reply #2110 on:** July 01, 2021, 07:34:19 PM »

I kinda feel like anything that came out on the PS4 in the last 2 years of its life is gonna get a $70 money grab edition

Bebpo · « **Reply #2111 on:** July 01, 2021, 08:47:08 PM »

Another reason why it's good to be a slow ass to getting to your backlog.

Svejk · « **Reply #2112 on:** July 01, 2021, 08:54:22 PM »

Yeah, I've been wanting to play A Plagues Tale for awhile now, and now the PS5 version will be free on PS+ next week. Glad I've held off. Now where the hell is BB whatever PS5 edition. $:-\$

naff · « **Reply #2113 on:** July 01, 2021, 09:22:08 PM »

archnemesis · « **Reply #2114 on:** July 02, 2021, 02:51:16 AM »

I never got around to play either Ghosts of Tsushima or A Plague Tale. I'll happily play these, especially if I can get them for "free" from PS+.

Don Rumata · « **Reply #2115 on:** July 02, 2021, 05:54:45 AM »

Plague Tale has really pedestrian (and boring, tbh) gameplay, and an alright story, but the visuals are mostly great and an amazing soundtrack.
I wish they required some effort with the puzzles, it could've been a really cool game.

Akala · « **Reply #2116 on:** July 02, 2021, 07:25:00 AM »

a plague tale rocks (aside from one courtyard puzzle).

played on gamepass and was one of the fave things I played last (?) year.

I bought God of War on sale for like $10 and didn't play it until I got a PS5, and honestly $:game ratio that's the best money I've ever spent. Other games I bought on PS4 and never finished that I will play now and also have PS5 upgrades: Horizon, Jedi Fallen Order, and Final Fantasy XV. I'm also fine with it, but it's just kind of funny to me that there's nothing exclusive to PS5 yet that I feel like I *have* to play. (I'll eventually get both Returnal and Ratchet but not spending $70, I'm cheap)

I mean it's $20-$30 for the new expansion. Not like they're charging just for PS5 upgrades.

Would be more similar to if FF7r PS5 charged $30 to upgrade but came with the Yuffie episode.

Let's Cyber · « **Reply #2122 on:** July 03, 2021, 01:31:20 PM »

I'd be pretty scummy if not for

1) they already offered a 60 fps patch for the PS4 version on PS5. No one is locked to buying the more expensive PS5 version.
2) a free and beefy multiplayer mode released after launch.

I hope we get improved textures for the PS5 version too but otherwise I'm fine spending $30 for the expansion.

Don Rumata · « **Reply #2123 on:** July 03, 2021, 03:48:26 PM »

I won't call GoT DC scammy, but from the trailer, that new island's content really looks like a lot of the same stuff from the main game with minimal changes.
Hope i'm wrong because i had fun with the game and i wouldn't mind new stuff.

I mean it's an ubisoft-like expansion. Expecting anything more than more of the same with a new location seems unrealistically optimistic.

Don Rumata · « **Reply #2125 on:** July 03, 2021, 05:20:08 PM »

AC expansions usually introduce crazy super natural stuff? This doesn't seem to do that, but maybe i'm wrong.
But yeah, i wasn't expecting Blood & Wine.

Skullfuckers Anonymous · « **Reply #2126 on:** July 05, 2021, 01:28:37 PM »

I finally was able to order one of these!

Got a bundle from GameStop which came with Ratchet, MLB, an extra controller, and a $40 gift card. They were having a b2g1 on preowned games so I used the gift card to get tlou2, ff7, and sotc remake. I also grabbed miles morales ultimate edition for $20 today and will be grabbing hzd, wipeout, and persona 5 royale off the psn store.

I had a ps4, but checked out midway through the generation since I got a pc and was tired of the ps4 sounding like an airplane. Looking forward to playing all the exclusives I missed which should last me a while!

Raist · « **Reply #2127 on:** July 05, 2021, 02:27:01 PM »

Just sign up for PS+, you get a bunch of PS4 games for "free". Including P5.

Skullfuckers Anonymous · « **Reply #2128 on:** July 05, 2021, 03:07:19 PM »

Going to skip out on plus for now since I don’t play multiplayer stuff and the only game in that instant collection that I don’t own on ps4/pc that I want is days gone which I can just buy on it’s own.

Zero interest in Deathloop but hopefully we get some more neat stuff. It's weird they didn't save Ghost of Tsushima news but I guess that did leak early

Sony saw the Switch Pro announcement and realized they could hold off on the big guns for another 6 months.

Yep, Deathloop was extremely uninteresting to me.

Death Stranding DC makes me want to play it again.

Don Rumata · « **Reply #2138 on:** July 08, 2021, 06:11:24 PM »

Death Loop looks like an Arkane game, so if you like Dishonored, it looks like that (but without the cool setting).

I liked the new stuff in DS, JETT and FIST.

naff · « **Reply #2139 on:** July 08, 2021, 08:29:29 PM »

i really like the neo noir setting, and Dishonored's gameplay is ideal for fine tuning speed runs, learning different routes, perfecting that series of kills. the invasion mechanic might give it a little more longevity adding a competitive aspect. fresh concept that also appears very well executed

Bebpo · « **Reply #2140 on:** July 08, 2021, 11:39:30 PM »

Dishonored is really good. So Deathloop is either Day 1 or $5 for me depending on how rogue it is at launch. Will read up reviews on the mechanics and how much carries over and if you can beat it over time even if you suck like a rogue-like rather than a game you may never clear rogue.

I feel like it might not be that hard because it's going for mainstream appeal compared to something like Returnal which was going for that Nex Machina x Hades hardcore indie crowd.

Glad it's just minor stuff. Game is too long to be replayable.

Will be nice for people who are playing it for the first time though! And the game probably won't need a remaster for a long, long time between the PC version and PS5 version. Should hold up pretty well for a decade or two.

Let's Cyber · « **Reply #2143 on:** July 09, 2021, 03:50:47 AM »

$10 is very reasonable, I'll check it out.

Quote

You can now insert an M.2 SSD to your PS5’s expansion slot and use M.2 SSD storage. Just like your PS5’s console storage, you can install PS5 and PS4 games in M2 SSD storage and play them directly from there.

You can use PCle 4.0 M.2 SSDS with a capacity of 250 GB minimum and 4 TB maximum.

To safely insert or remove your M.2 SSD, make sure your PS5 is turned off and that the AC power cord is unplugged.

To use M.2 SSD storage, insert your M2 SSD in your PS5’s expansion slot while your PS5 is turned off. When you turn on your PS5, you’ll format your M.2 SSD so that it’s ready to use.

To move a PS5 or PS4 game that’s installed in console storage or USB extended storage to M2 SSD storage, go to your game library, press the options button and then select [Move Games and Apps]. Then select the game you want to move, and then select.

Edit:

You may need to consider the cooling requirements for using an M.2 SSD in a PS5, though. “Using an M.2 SSD with your PS5 console requires effective heat dissipation with a cooling structure, such as a heatsink,” explains Sony. “You can attach one to your M.2 SSD yourself, either in a single-sided format, or double-sided format.”

Svejk · « **Reply #2148 on:** July 29, 2021, 11:15:17 AM »

That's a helluva an update.

Actually surprised they're addressing the storage issue already. Gonna hang back and see what M.2 SSD gets best results over time. Not hurting for storage currently. Wonder what with all the Library updates, but still no folders?

I have the new sn850 western digital black drive on order for a pc I'm building, but a friend just said he can get Samsung 980 evo pro's on sale as well though a partner deal w his office. afaik these are the only two nvme drives worth considering rn. might keep the black order and grab a pro 1tb also....

naff · « **Reply #2152 on:** July 29, 2021, 04:35:15 PM »

In real world testing the sn850 comes out slightly on top but more or less the same as the 980 Pro and the new seagate firecuda and Kingston drives also seem pretty good. Personally like WD black as they're known for reliability, great testing, standard for the film industry.
