I glimpsed a headline mentioning Horizon Call of the Mountain and got super hyped, but then my hopes plummeted when I saw t was a VR game. Never been one for zombies, or Final Fantasy or Street Fighter, or horror, so pretty much the only thing that interested me was Stray (which keeps making me think of Love Death and Robots 3 Robots episodes). Overall felt pretty disappointed with this, surprised to see so many saying it was the best State of Play ever.
All of these are quite impressive, but I found myself thinking for several of them "no way this thing would be standing over 1000 years later" It's Incredible the level of detail they put into this game though!
So after going live at 9:00 PM, and getting 5 or 6 errors in adding the console to my cart, the entire stock apparently got sold in less than a minute, and I missed it.
So the game will let you turn off nudity, but the article describing that feature will feature nudity you can't turn off? Seriously, her top is entirely see through, and while I have no issues looking at nude female forms, I wouldn't expect to be doing so, completely uncensored, on the front page of a games journalism website for all ages.
The game looks fine, but one thing really irked me about the trailer. The word Dice is plural! The singular form is Die. I cringed every time they said "a dice" or "another dice"
So, it sounds to me that almost every game tested works like a charm, being backwards compatible with PS4. A few may have had some slight issues due to the more powerful hardware, and might need a patch to sort out those few bugs. Backwards compatibility is being built natively into the PS5, so it's not like it will ever be removed a year or two down the line. Virtually the entire PS4 library will be fully backwards compatible automatically, with a small percentage of games that might need a patch to run at peak performance. That's what I got out of the presentation. I really don't get all this doom and gloom people are talking about here.

Re: Lost in Random Is a Tim Burton-Inspired Adventure From the EA Originals Program

Re: Poll: Does PS5's Teraflop Disadvantage Matter to You?
Often the slightly weaker system has the advantage, since that tends to become the baseline specs for multiplatform games.
