Re: F1 23 (PS5) - A FIFA Level Experience for F1 Fans

Agramonte

Yeah driving is just sublime. And i personality think the tracks/cars look amazing at 4K zipping by at 60fps.

CodeMasters have done it again. Brilliant game for F1 and motorsport fans

No PSVR2 support, so on PC this year again.

Just got an update, now working on SteamDeck.

Re: Preview: The Crew Motorfest Is Forza Horizon on PS5, and It's Brilliant

@Anke

Yeah, on the main page it has always been confusing. They now also made it more confusing because they have a new "multi access" tier that includes "XBOX Consoles".

But if you dig a bit it is via "Luna cloud service" (we were getting it for free during Beta)

Ubi+ subscription option where you actually install the game is only for the PC version.

Re: Poll: What Do You Think of the Final Fantasy 16 PS5 Demo?

Agramonte

I told myself I would hold off for full game... later, "download just to see how it looks"... then, "just run around for a FPS test"

A few hrs later I was still playing 😅🤣🤦‍♂️

Love it so far. I made a 4 day weekend for launch with personal days - I was buying it regardless. But now I really cant wait - this looks to be EPIC!

Re: Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak Wraps Up on PS5, PS4 This August

Agramonte

Good game... but, just hoping next one actually takes full use of next gen hardware again.

I definitely did not get the "WOW" factor with Rise like I did with MH:World

With Steamdeck (and Ally) I have no need for a limited handheld version... just put it on PC (target a 4080/PS5/X) we can take it from there.

Re: Random: Thought PSVR2 Was Expensive? Apple's Vision Pro Is Here to Hold Your Beer

@NEStalgia

I can play F1 in VR with not much issue. But using it in Windows mode to work I find painful,... especially if with White canvas like XD or Illustrator or need to read edits in Word. I scraped that part of VR on my PC early on.

Same goes for movies. Fades to white with in VR I simply close my eyes. I find it a much less enjoyable experience than simply watching the movie on a nice TV.

I cant play VR after a long day at work either, that is a guaranteed headache. I 100% can sit in front of a TV on the other side of the room and watch a movie with the wife before bed.

HoloLense 2 had a version with an integrated Hardhat by Trimble

You cant take random stuff into a PPE zone. Trimble had to replace the HL2 glass for it to be Impact certification compliant and extra insulation on the electrical components for it to be allowed on a US/EU work site.

HoloLens 2.0 🤦‍♂️

But It has an Apple logo on the box. So some will still try to romanticize introducing Inefficient nonsense into their workflow

Also, using a VR/AR Headsets to do work or watch a 2hr movie gives new meaning to "eye strain"

You can get a
1. LGC2 55 inch OLED,
2. PS5 FF16 Bundle
3. PSVR2 Call of the mountain Bundle
4. 13 Macbook Air.

For $3,260 right now at BestBuy. You will be more entertained and productive than buying this thing for $3,499.

Re: Alan Wake 2 Thinks It'll Beat Spider-Man to PS5's Best Graphics of 2023 Crown

Agramonte

After Horizon Burning Shores I am so excited to see what comes out. It really shows what is possible.

Digital Artist can show off more of their talent now - and we get to come along for the ride.

Art and technology have always gone hand in hand, especially the ones stuck on the specs of a 3rd party Digital Canvas.

This is why the argument that awful stagnant hardware does not matter never holds water.

Re: PlayStation Showcase Completely Divided Fan Opinion

Agramonte

I got info on 5 games out of it. And my game list got bigger, I am good.

Spider Man 2
Alan Wake 2
Phantom Blade Zero
Dragon's Dogma 2 (this alone made my day)
Granblue

I play (and a Fan of) more 3rd party games than I play Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo 1st party games combined. Those are just a "Bonus" every 5 to 8 months on my list.

I own a PS because it gives me access to the largest pool of announcements to pick from. And it always delivers that regardless of what Sony is doing.

Re: No Final Fantasy 16 DLC Planned, Said to Be a 'One-Off Game'

Agramonte

@Flaming_Kaiser

I like prequals or expanded characters stories.

I love stuff like Burning Shores. That is my new high mark for a game expansion.

Price, Content, Quality... simply on another level.

What I cant stand is non story DLC. Or the trend of lumping Story DLC with other random stuff. I am not paying for "Horde Mode"

Re: Sony Says It's Too Early to Judge PSVR2's Popularity

Agramonte

You can get both a PSVR2 + PS5 for the price of a decent headset on PC. And finally something with HDR.

Make a new Colony Wars and WipeOut in VR... Flying and racing - what I use VR on my PC 99% of the time.

They also need to make it PC compatible. Loosing tons of sales.

Re: Jim Ryan: Japanese Market Still Very Important to Sony

Agramonte

I had played 1 game in the Japanese top 15 (Hogwarts Legacy) last time I checked.

Everything else seemed to be made by/for people who think Crayola are Art Supplies.

They can let 3rd party target Japan. Sony studios need to keep making the high-end story driven single player games that are popular in the West.

Re: Another Game as a Service on PS5 Is Being Abandoned

Agramonte

Royal stuff not for me. But waiting for The First Descendant. Games like Destiny are more my type of format.

Like how people try to pretend stuff like FF14 or paying an extra $55 for battle packs (basically 1 character, outfits and a new Arena) across the years on a $60 fighting game are not GAAS also.

Re: UK Sales Charts: Nothing on PS5, PS4, Can Compete with Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

Agramonte

Enjoying what I played of Zelda. FF16 is not on PC so not on SteamDeck - so hopefully Zelda can carry me over for a bit when away from home.

Steamdeck can take a well deserved break after my obsession with Hogwarts Legacy (seems to still be doing well )

Great for Jedi Survivor... love the game. Alternating from Playing it and Watching Clone Wars on Disney+ all weekend.

4K+RayTracing+HDR+lightsaber = happy Star Wars fan 🙂
