Re: Poll: Did You Get a PS5?

DragonSlayer1759

Got mine this morning (friday) delivered by Yodel on behalf of Game. After all the stress of actually getting a PS5 im really enjoying it so far. The menus took a little time to get used to. I think the UI will change as time goes on, as i can find a way to personalise anything. Playing Astrobot at the moment. Really good fun for what it is. No issues at the moment.

Re: PlayStation Trophies Update Is Going Live Right Now on PS4

DragonSlayer1759

Mine not yet updated. This is great news for me. The only thing that the xbox was better for in my opinion is their achievement system. It shows your progress all the time. I hated the long long wait between levels on PS. Ive been level 14 for about 3 years!!!! Im not a completionist, but i do like to get trophies. So, YES.

Re: Talking Point: Are You Worried About the Future of Western RPGs on PS5?

This is why I have decided to get a series X as well as a PS5.
Playstation has no good RPG developers in my opinion and that is my favourite genre.
Playstation will still be my main console because I still love their exclusives like God of War and Uncharted (not true RPG's in my opinion), but I couldn't bear the thought of missing out on Starfield, which I think will be incredible, and The Elder Scrolls, although still a long way off, is my favourite IP.
I hope one of Sony's studios try to make a true fantasy RPG to compete with the Elder Scrolls.

Re: Future Bethesda Games Could Still Come to PlayStation Despite Xbox Ownership

DragonSlayer1759

This will not stop me getting a ps5. However, this does increase my chances of me getting the xbox x (definitely not the s) as a second console in the distant future. Starfield and the elder scrolls games are still at least a couple of years away, so no need to get the xbox yet. The other involved games do not interest me anyway, and Bethesda have done nothing to please gamers for ages (remember fallout 76 and all those games with microtransactios).
Sony have loads of games due out next year to keep me entertained until Bethesda release something interesting.
From a business point of view though this is a great move by microsoft, the best thing they have done for their players for years.

Re: Poll: What's Your Favourite PS4 Game of 2020 So Far?

DragonSlayer1759

1st is TLOU2. I cant understand the hate for this game, graphics were superb, gameplay was good, and the story was great.
2nd is Ghost of Tsushima. Only about 15 hrs in, but graphically its beautiful, gameplay is original and entertaining, the story...not finished it yet, but its ok so far.
3rd is FFV11 remake, just good fun to play.

Re: Sony's First-Parties Have Perfected the Art of Compelling Trophy Lists

DragonSlayer1759

The one thing i prefer xbox for over ps is their achievement system. Your Gamerscore is constantly advancing making you feel like you are making progress. The ps's trophy system makes you go up in levels that get harder and harder to progress. I am currently at level 14, and it is taking ages to go up, taking away that feeling of progression (until you actually do level up). When i do level up to 15, i will probably be dead before i can level up to 16.

Bye the way, im 61 at the moment.

Re: PS5 Pre-Order Pages Live on Amazon Australia

DragonSlayer1759

I hate this. Last time when i pre ordered the ps4 on Amazon, it accepted my order, then a couple of weeks later said there was not enough stock. But i was lucky because then a mega pack became available, so i ordered that. I dont want to go through that again, but i fear there will not be anywhere near enough stock this time either. Now i find myself waiting for the orders to go live when in all possibility it wont happen today anyway. Sometimes i wonder why im a gamer.

Re: New Ghost of Tsushima Gameplay Clips are Gorgeous, Show More Combat

DragonSlayer1759

Im super hyped for this. The only concern i have is that the battle system still reminds me of the assassins Creed series where its only to easy to block then counter. It also seems that when there are a few enemies, only one seems to attack at a time (again very like Assassins Creed). If my concerns are incorrect, this could end up as one of best games potentially.

Re: Can PS5 Go On Its Side?

I love the look of it standing up, but my home entertainment system means I will have to lay it down (unless I can persuade the missus to let me get a different one).
