In the UK: £5 and £20 option seem to have gone, only £10 now

I’d like a mode that makes the challenge levels more accessible. I’m just useless at them!

Again a forlorn hope of some 1st party love for PSVR2 is sadly dashed.

The comparison to Nintendo is a bit tenuous. I've no issue with remastering WiiU games for Switch as a) the WiiU sold so poorly - some people don't have the hardware to play them, b) WiiU games don't play on Switch. PS4 games can 100% be played on PS5 so any remaster is purely for a slight graphical polish-up and loading time issues.

Didn’t really look at this at launch but might give it a go now it’s on sale. £20 or £30 for deluxe. Is the season1 pack worth it?

I’m still on a 1080p screen so no use to me.

I don’t know why is like this. They could’ve released a free client like Star Trek online. Same sub and purchases transfers across platforms.

@elhozzo there is on PC/mobile.

One massive problem with this is that an Antstream subscription on any other platform won't be accessible on PS. So if you have Anstream and can play on PC/Mac/phone you have to pay again the whole subscription fee to play on PS.

Why are studios pouring so much money into online only games when it’s clear that people don’t want them?

I just want Rare Replay.

I just want Rare Replay.

Bit disappointed. I've got EAPlay so I'd be getting FC24 anyway. Lightfall is just DLC again for Destiny 2 that I have no interest in (again). Tunic looks fun though.

Is anyone else finding Medievil impossible to add to library? I’m on PS Plus Premium and the only option is to add to cart for £7.99.

Anyone else unable to get Medievil? It’s requiring payment.

Just give us Astrobot on PSVR2

My old broadband was 22Mbs and it was unable. On 1Gig it’s a pretty good experience. I wish though they’d enable it on PSPortal/Remote Devices lay.

Feels cheap when F1 23 is already “free” on EAPlay sub.

From a simple perspective it looks like execs directed studios to make live service game as that was perceived to be the cash cow. Customers don't want these and so the burden of this failed decision falls on the workers at the coal face, whilst those responsible for the mis direction pick up their huge bonuses..... It is ever thus.

Good. Focusing on proper single player games is the right call.

@JDCII I’m in the same boat. My TV is 1080p and I can’t see individual pixels so a 4K or even 8K screen isn’t a priority for me (esp as the max size I can fit is. 50” screen) so a PS5Pro isn’t going to do much for me.

No invert-y. Unplayable for me

Was looking forward to this but no option to invert y. Ridiculous!

@AaronBayne thanks. My internet connection at home isn’t great but if this is better than the experience I’ve had with iPhone and backbone I’m looking at it more favourably.

I’m still wondering if the connection is any better using this than a phone and the PS app. Despite being in the same room my phone and PS app for remote play isn’t great. I’d hoped this had a better ‘direct’ connection.

Is he talking about game streaming? Paying for Gamepass and streaming the games to a PS5 - for the majority people the infrastructure isn’t anywhere near good enough. Unless you’ve got full fibre to your home (and with OpenReach doing such a dire job even in suburban locations) most of us are years away from being able to do that.

If that’s the case they wouldn’t have killed the PlayStation version of Starfield that was well into development work.

Not played this since I had it on the Xbox360 and the gameplay was rife with people getting their n** out on the Xbox camera.

If the earpads are leatherette plastic then no.

Personally I couldn’t care less about COD. Not being able to play Starfield (after presumably a good deal of work on the PS5 version was done) and also Elder Scrolls 6 being something else unavailable is what annoys me.

Zero use to me. My broadband can’t even handle the PS3 streaming. Never got it to work for more than 5 minutes. 🙁

Shock horror : Products that customers don’t want turn out to be unpopular.

I’m similar to a previous poster. I went premium for PS1/2 and PSP ports. (I can’t stream PS3 as my broadband is only 25Mbs). The number of PS1/2/PSP games has been woefully small.

PSVR2 desperately needs an Astrobot game.

Apparently this dongle doesn’t support DS3 on the PS2 (if you need the pressure sensitive buttons). The old Brook adaptor does however.

@sanderson72 you can do this with a MayFlash adaptor. Works really well except for the few games that utilise the pressure sensitive face buttons (that the DS4 and DualSense don’t have)

Does it connect via WiFi or directly if in the same house?

This is an utter dead end for 90% of people until internet infrastructure improves drastically.

TF3 please with a proper single player campaign

@Flaming_Kaiser don’t they normally do regional variant covers? I recall Stroll being in the cover of the Canadian release a couple of years ago. Maybe he’ll be on the cover on copies released in Netherlands?

Had a PS1 and PS2 but defected to X360 in the PS3 era. Bought one later then went through PSP, PS4, Vita, PSVR, PS5, PSVR2. At one stage I even had the PSTV. Currently regretting selling my PS2 and looking for another.

@Max_the_German same. I just couldn’t get to the table!

Not having the option to smooth travel makes this a hard pass. I can’t get on board with teleport travelling.

Gave it a try. It was terrible. Even for free.

As I still have quite a few 3D BluRays it's a shame that 3D isn't supported.

Is there a reason why we can’t have 60fps and rat tracing but compromise on resolution at 1080p?

Gah! I ordered the PSVR2 without Horizon, figuring it was standalone at the same price. Didn’t realise it was a £20 saving.

@The_Flapjack UK price includes VAT

This is about the price I expected. Considering the tech and the fact that it has both controllers it's about right. The PSVR1 didn't have the Moves bundled in and they were an extra cost.
Has anyone had any kind of verification that they've registered on the store? I've done it (UK) but haven't had any kind of confirmation.

I’ll always sacrifice 4K to get 60fps.
