Wow. I had no idea I played an unfinished, nigh unplayable game. Incredible that they managed to turn things around, and make it an emotional experience. But...point taken. Never ever buy naughty dog games until they're 1½ generation old.
@nessisonett Yes. The reason being the ongoing console war. I am pretty uncool with SONY as of late. But plenty of third party games make really good use of the dual sense controller. Plenty of games make an effort to look and run great on PS5. Devs love it. The people complaining the most about a lack of games are nerds like us, on both teams.
@Hairy_Potter First, almost nobody could get a PS5 on day one. Let alone for €500,- so don't pretend that was normal. I had to wait a year, and buy a bundle with a game and controller, for €870,-. Second, no, you won't get €500,- for your PS5pro in 3 or 4 years. You don't need to cry? Wow. Such a big boy. But it sure does seem like you need to rub your own luck in other people's faces, and pretend like that's what it was like for everybody.
Yeah. They can still take turns sucking each other off. A disc drive is in fact €120 everywhere near me. A PS5pro with a disc drive is gonna cost €1.000 and it sucks. Can I just not buy it? Sure. Can they just keep doing it? Sure? I totally see the PS6 being a €600 machine or maybe even €700.
@Yagami No can do. My home cinema is literally in a separate building adjacent to my house. But it's all good. I have my PC hooked up to a 34" ultra wide 🤷♀️
@Lavishturtle Yes. The first one really does need a fresh coat of paint. It's from that weird time where games will still run on windows, but with no support for even 16:9 let alone 21:9. I tried it on steam deck. Not good 😂
I loved the first one. Setting, atmosphere and both score and soundtrack. I am 100% going to play this. The state and look of it will decide if I'll get it on console or PC. Although in this particular instance, nostalgia is pulling me towards PC.
In Denmark, PS5pro with a disc drive is €1.000,- It's just more than I can justify. I could skip the drive, but then I'd be skipping all the games I own on disc. Petty as it may be, I hope this machine fails miserably.
I got to play as a black dude in Origins and Watchdogs 2. Couldn't they have just made this an Asian setting with an asian cast? It just feels so forced and wokey dokey for the sake of it.
Good thing many modern TV's do great 30 to 60fps interpolation while keeping both visual artefacts and latency penalty to a minimum. Game mode plus on Samsung TV' is a good example. The perfect solution to the problem for a whole lot of single player 3rd person games. Flagship TV's can do so much of what the PS5 pro offers. Faking 60fps on any 30fps game will improve image quality radically, basically rendering the PS5pro all but virtually indistinguishable visually speaking. It'll have the fast 16ms response time and better ray tracing. But that is it.
@PegasusActual93 I didn't mention any conspiracy. And it didn't perform poorly either. Why do you seem butt hurt because I'm capable of understanding his perspective. I loved the game. Many did, no matter how mediocre you've decided it is.
I'd be pissed off too. I like Astro bot. It's got nothing to do with that. But SONY f@%king this guy over, and killing off what could have been a brilliant sequel, just to use the protagonist to promote a game they DID green light. It's just adding insult to injury. They take away his baby and post it in a baby's game. Or. That's how he feels. And I can appreciate that.
@clvr
You're just too immature to admit when you behave poorly. You don't like when you can't meet you own lofty standards, and keep taking it out on me. Might be time to get off that high horse. Arrogance don't make you right.
@clvr Nope. I said "the single player part is great" and you answered "no it isn't" as if my opinion is wrong bitnyour opinion is fact. If anybody's being passive agressive, it's you. I get on your nerves because I don't agree with you. That was literally all it took. You then proceeded to berate me for not sharing your opinion.
@clvr So, let me get this straight. The games I like but you don't, are bad. Lemme guess. The games you like but I don't, are good. Right? Because my experience is my opinion. But your opinion is fact? Yeah. Quite the adult conversation we could have 😂😂😂
@clvr So my experience with it is wrong? I didn't think the single player part was amazing? 🤔 Ok. Thanks for clearing that up. Any other misconceptions you wanna clear up? Maybe I don't even like video games at all?
@LikelySatan All those positive individuals who fly off the hinges at the very first glimpse of female skin, cgi or otherwise. Of course they won't get a game cancelled. Fortunately the positive minds behind cancel culture haven't been successful in that regard...yet

Re: Marvel's Spider-Man 2 Will Literally Melt Your Face Off on PS5 Pro
I'm already playing the 40fps mode. 40fps is so much better than 30. If the pro just does the same thing at 60fps, then cool. But not that impressive.
