Topic: PlayStation 5 --OT--

Looks like the “share captures through PS App” feature finally launched in Europe (including UK) this morning.
I haven’t had the chance to try it yet but it’s in my app now.

@lolwhatno that's ridicilous. It has been hundreds of years since the "old ones' time" (correct me if I am wrong). A good nokia would still have at least 60% battery left.

Besides, if you could grind nokia hammers and make armor out of it, you will be literally invulnerable.

@Voltan: time to share your awesome gameplay captures!!

I’m seeing a sponsored post about PSVR2 from the PlayStation Facebook page. It links to the blog post from February but it’s kinda interesting that they’d do that kind of campaign now?

@velio84 exciting times ahead, can't wait.

@Voltan @velio84 @MightyDemon82 not to rain on your parade guys, but April Fool's day was just yesterday as well. Take everything the internet offered you with a grain of salt (including comments from yours truly).

@avatarian I got the email too, linking to the official page with the PSVR2 info/specs - there's no release date, price or pre-orders yet though.

@avatarian you mean like listening to a budgie? 😂

@MightyDemon82 Exactly!!

So with MLB The Show 22 released today, there's now no upcoming PS Studios games with a specific release date. Sony always limits the amount of time that's the case so I feel there's a good chance of a State of Play or Showcase in the next few weeks.

This could mean literally nothing but there’s been an unusual amount of Twitter activity from Sony Santa Monica employees posting about God Of War Ragnarok (saying things along the lines of “working on this is awesome”) over the last few days 👀

@Voltan There’s a good chance there’s going to be a SoP in the very near future. Would be amazing if they announce a release date for GoWR.

I’d love a new killzone

Random thought here:
Do you think some games need a Boss Rush mode? or is it better to get a New game+ instead?

I was thinking God of War (2018) needs one Valkyrie boss rush, among some other games. i would totally go for both NG+ and Boss Rush if available.

PS+ revamp timing schedule:

• Asia markets (excluding Japan) – targeting May 23, 2022
• Japan – targeting June 1, 2022
• Americas – targeting June 13, 2022
• Europe – targeting June 22, 2022

I don’t own a VRR capable TV yet so I can’t confirm myself, but I see people say that enabling VRR noticeably reduces input lag on “unsupported” PS5 games, which would be a big deal for my Guilty Gear, especially with cross play with PC coming soon!

How are the Evil Within games? I see you can get them both for about a tenner.

@MightyDemon82 Number 2 is more polished - the execution is far better overall, but it definitely loses some of the raw trippiness of Number 1. It’s like Ubisoft got a final pass at it before release or something. However, the weird factor of EW1 outstays its welcome well before the end and there is no other reason to recommend it over EW2. The difficulty is a bit all over the place in EW1, too. I really remember that as a big problem. EW2, the semi-open environments will make you feel like you’re in Silent Hill again, and the way you trigger certain set-piece encounters is a refreshing take on the survival horror genre. There are side quests but they are minimal so you don’t get bogged down, and they are generally always worth doing.

I absolutely love EW2. If you like Resi 4, you should like it. Not sure why I am saying that as I don’t really rate Resi 4 myself 😂 Okay, if you like Dead Space 2 you should like EW2 😉

Get both, play them in any order. But if you only get one, jump to the second.

@kyleforrester87 Cheers for just over £10 I'll get the pair. Never played Resi4 in it's entirety so no clue there!

@MightyDemon82 can’t add much to what’s been said above other than another ringing endorsement to what is one of the best horror series out there (with EW2 being one of my favourite games ever). Enjoy!!

@Jimmer-jammer sounds great and for a tenner that's even better
