While most of us are intelligent enough to know this is a April Fools Joke you know someone is going to believe it and start spreading it like it's fact
@oldschool1987 @Rob_230 good news on my account i got a email from Amazon today and it looks like i'll be getting FFVII Remake on time at the very least so if it comes early that's a added bonus
you know it's no wonder that the PS4 streaming function never really took off, why bother streaming when half the time it's blocked
i understand not wanting people to spread spoilers but most will just use a capture device instead so it doesn't stop anything so they could at least patch it out after 6 months or a year, like Square did with Kingdom Hearts
@Matroska that's odd, when i play FFXV on a base launch model PS4 it barely makes a sound
of course i have had games that kick my PS4 fan into high gear when it hasn't for others such as Battlefront 2, on the menus my PS4 sounded like it was going to take off
@LN78 not used paypal since it was hacked once and someone tried to buy over a grands worth of stuff with my details
luckily i was warned ahead of time by paypal and canceled my cards and everything but i have a one strike rule when it comes to things like this, it's why i don't use my details on PSN anymore
like i said i have Digital to fall back one for day one as a last resort and there is plenty of time left, 2 weeks in fact
@Rob_230 i tried actually BUT i can't because for with the added security my bank uses i need to have a code sent to a phone to input the first time i use a new service BUT while the bank has my current phone number they wont let me use it and only show an option for my old phone number
i have contacted them but they said they have no idea why my current number wont show and that they would look into it when they can but given the current crisis that's not gonna happen soon
long story short Amazon is pretty much the ONLY place i can buy from right now until this is sorted out
that's why i'm thinking Digital version for day one and the physical version can go in my collection later
i'm still getting it physical because one i'm a physical media person and two, is FINAL FANTASY and i will ALWAYS go physical with that series unless i have no other choice
but saying that i am keeping an eye on it and while Amazon have not given me a firm release date i will know a few days before release if it will get here on time or not
if it wont and it seems too long i'll buy the digital version as well as the physical one because that's going to be sitting on my shelf with the other FF games
@I_Like_It yeah you would think developers would drop them early morning (whatever their local time is) so there is less inconveniences for the consumer
but then again this is Ubisoft and they don't care about the consumer
@I_Like_It that's odd, being it's online then you would have to have PS+ and in that case the updates should download automatically in standby mode so it should already be updated
@BalsBigBrother i hope your job is safe in these trying times, i have been unemployed in the past and it's not something i would like to repeat, the benefits system is terribly broken
plus i'm lucky, i work very early mornings and as such i have very little interaction with customers so i have less chances to be exposed
@RBMango IF they can, the older PlayStations all used propitiatory chip sets so it might not be possible, they actually explained it in the Deep Dive but the reason the old systems were always so expensive is because the systems included the old chip sets in them
they tried emulation in the past on the PS3 for PS1 games and even that had trouble running some of them
i imagine it's something they are looking into but probably holding off on saying anything until they can either confirm if they can or can't do it
@ZeD yeah but this should clear some of the confusion up, seems it was just that they had only tested the top 100 games and they are continuing to test others, looks like they are making sure every game works before confirming that they will
although i might not get it at launch anymore, i don't really feel the need right now but that can change in the future depends on what happens when they do an actual consumer reveal event

Re: Exclusive: PS5 to Receive Terafloppy Disks, Proprietary Hardware That Will Boost Teraflops Count
@JoeBlogs sorry about that, guess i kinda ruined the fun
Re: Exclusive: PS5 to Receive Terafloppy Disks, Proprietary Hardware That Will Boost Teraflops Count
@LiamCroft it's probably a april fools thing and if so then yeh all got me but i really DON'T click random links to unknown websites, i refuse too
Re: Exclusive: PS5 to Receive Terafloppy Disks, Proprietary Hardware That Will Boost Teraflops Count
@JoeBlogs thing is it both is and isn't true (and sorry but i don't click links to random websites i don't know)
they have only tested 100 so that's all they can confirm for now, they are unwilling to say a game will work if it's not been tested
Re: Exclusive: PS5 to Receive Terafloppy Disks, Proprietary Hardware That Will Boost Teraflops Count
@JoeBlogs no they have only tested so many games so far so that's all they confirmed
Sony are still testing other games and are expecting nearly every PS4 game to play on PS5
Apparently it's because of they are using a SSD not HDD this time and PS4 games are designed to run on a HDD
Even MS came out and said it's the same on Series X recently, they expect them to work they just need to test first

Re: Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot's First DLC Detailed, Lets You Unlock Super Saiyan God Goku and Vegeta
@KidBoruto oh it's well worth it, it's a fantastic game but sadly it has no real end game content other than fighting super tough enemies
Re: Resident Evil PS5 Rumours Just Won't Go Away
@wiiware an open world one would be nice although it will probably be more like Days Gone than Witcher 3
Re: Final Fantasy VII Remake Will Ship 'Far Earlier' in Europe and Australia, Square Enix Confirms
@oldschool1987 @Rob_230 good news on my account i got a email from Amazon today and it looks like i'll be getting FFVII Remake on time at the very least so if it comes early that's a added bonus
still i'm OK thankfully
Re: Rumour: Capcom Has Another Remake in the Works, Not Dino Crisis or Code Veronica X
i actually hope it's NOT Resident Evil, we already had Resi 2 and 3, 4 doesn't need doing at all, the HD remaster is perfectly fine
if they are going to remake something i want it to be one of their older properties like the Breath of Fire series
or maybe the rest of the Onimusha series

Re: Final Fantasy VII Remake Will Ship 'Far Earlier' in Europe and Australia, Square Enix Confirms
@oldschool1987 you know that's odd because i'm with Amazon and my deliveries have been fine so far, i even got Knives Out early
guess it depends on where it's shipping from
Re: Final Fantasy VII Remake Will Ship 'Far Earlier' in Europe and Australia, Square Enix Confirms
It's great they are doing this, i just hope my copy arrives in time now
Re: Random: Jet Engine PS4 Fan Noise Goes Viral in Social Media Mocking

Re: NieR Replicant Coming to PS4 with 10 Year Anniversary Revival

Re: Final Fantasy VII Remake Retail PS4 Copies Leak Weeks Ahead of Release
@Rob_230 yeah hopefully but even if i have to wait i know it will get here eventually
i have already waited years for this, what's a few more days

Re: Poll: Should Sony Giveaway Free PS4 Games for Those in Isolation?
nope not at all, although maybe a sale on PSN would be nice but they don't need to give away anything for free
Re: Nintendo 64's Star Wars Episode I: Racer Being Revamped for PS4
@Westernwolf4 and the Rouge Squadron games

Re: Poll: Does PS5's Teraflop Disadvantage Matter to You?
@ShogunRok yep at the end if the day a person can spout all the numbers they want but it's games that sell systems

@Kalvort or save slots........oh WAIT!
Re: PSN Download Speeds Restricted as Sony Works with Internet Providers in Europe
@ankehuber wasn't it the government that has been asking companies not the IP's?
Re: Poll: Does PS5's Teraflop Disadvantage Matter to You?
let me put it this way, did being the weakest system impact the PS2?
people put far too much into numbers, it's GAMES that are important a few terraflops is nothing
Re: PSN Download Speeds Restricted as Sony Works with Internet Providers in Europe
@I_Like_It yeah you would think developers would drop them early morning (whatever their local time is) so there is less inconveniences for the consumer
but then again this is Ubisoft and they don't care about the consumer

Re: PSN Download Speeds Restricted as Sony Works with Internet Providers in Europe
@I_Like_It that's odd, being it's online then you would have to have PS+ and in that case the updates should download automatically in standby mode so it should already be updated
Re: PSN Download Speeds Restricted as Sony Works with Internet Providers in Europe
so then by the time FFVII Remake would have downloaded the physical version would probably have arrived anyway
still sticking to the physical version though
Re: Silent Hill PS5 Reboot Rumours Are False, Konami Claims
@Athrum or a smart phone game
Konami should just give up making games at this point
Re: Disney+ PS4 App Now Available in the UK and Select European Countries
@BalsBigBrother i hope your job is safe in these trying times, i have been unemployed in the past and it's not something i would like to repeat, the benefits system is terribly broken
plus i'm lucky, i work very early mornings and as such i have very little interaction with customers so i have less chances to be exposed
Re: Disney+ PS4 App Now Available in the UK and Select European Countries
@BalsBigBrother i work retail in a supermarket so as it's a part of the sector that is vital i still have to go to work
Re: Disney+ PS4 App Now Available in the UK and Select European Countries
@roe there are a lot of classic stuff on there too, problem is the interface of the app isn't that great to navigate right now
Re: Disney+ PS4 App Now Available in the UK and Select European Countries
Me and my brother have split the cost but i have a feeling I will be using it more than him
Also Mandalorion is awesome and now onto Clone Wars
Re: Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot's First DLC Detailed, Lets You Unlock Super Saiyan God Goku and Vegeta
unfortunately i have nothing left to do on DBZ Kakarot so i am patently waiting for this DLC to drop
and i mean nothing left, i have done all side quests and everything, all i can do is fly about the world doing random fights
Re: That Demon Slayer Game Is Being Developed By Naruto Storm and Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot Dev CyberConnect2
well that just jumped up my interested list
Re: My Hero One's Justice 2 - Disappointing Sequel Is Still Just an Average Arena Fighter
@nessisonett One Piece seems to be the only series that isn't full of arena fighters, as far as I'm aware the only one it has is Burning Blood
Most other games in the franchise are Musou style, beat em ups and even a Action RPG
It seems to be the only series BNGames treats differently
Re: PS5 Backwards Compatibility Will Play Overwhelming Majority of All PS4 Games, Improved Framerates and Higher Resolutions
@Wazeddie22 haven't had a GAME in my town since they went bankrupt back in 2012
the nearest video game store to me is 25 miles away, that's why i order all my games online, no where in my town sells them anymore
Re: PS5 Backwards Compatibility Will Play Overwhelming Majority of All PS4 Games, Improved Framerates and Higher Resolutions
@RBMango IF they can, the older PlayStations all used propitiatory chip sets so it might not be possible, they actually explained it in the Deep Dive but the reason the old systems were always so expensive is because the systems included the old chip sets in them
they tried emulation in the past on the PS3 for PS1 games and even that had trouble running some of them
i imagine it's something they are looking into but probably holding off on saying anything until they can either confirm if they can or can't do it
Re: PS5 Backwards Compatibility Will Play Overwhelming Majority of All PS4 Games, Improved Framerates and Higher Resolutions
good news
now Sony PLEASE work on your communication will you, no more confusing messages OK
Re: Poll: Do You Plan on Buying a PS5 After Sony's Deep Dive Video?
@ZeD yeah but this should clear some of the confusion up, seems it was just that they had only tested the top 100 games and they are continuing to test others, looks like they are making sure every game works before confirming that they will
Sony need to work on their communication though

Re: Poll: Do You Plan on Buying a PS5 After Sony's Deep Dive Video?
@Constable_What i'll be honest that sort of stuff never bothered me because i keep my old systems
i have my PS1, PS2, PS3 and PS4 all set up under my TV
but i can see why others would be bothered
Re: Poll: Do You Plan on Buying a PS5 After Sony's Deep Dive Video?
Yep of course i am
although i might not get it at launch anymore, i don't really feel the need right now but that can change in the future depends on what happens when they do an actual consumer reveal event
Re: Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot Patch 1.06 Out Now on PS4, Adds Time Machine
