Re: PS Plus Essential Games for January 2025 Announced

Futureshark

Stanley Parable is f***ing excellent, legendary game!!!
Hot Pursuit is my personal fave NFS.

Suicide Squad can go jump.

However I've got the above 2 and my plus premium expires in 2 weeks, so will be lapsing to go back to normal probably in the days of play sale this summer.

Re: Black Myth: Wukong Deserved Astro Bot's Game of the Year Award, Says Game Science CEO

Futureshark

Well this attitude is probably an outcome of the old (now abolished) one child rule that China had for so many year, producing at least 1 if not 2 generations of highly spoilt 'little emperors' who were showered with everything they wanted from their lovingly proud parents. To grow up that way means a lack of understanding to not get your way, hence the remarks we see here.

Secondly, Chinese schools offer a degree of indoctrination to their country and leaders that in the West is unimaginable. 'Xi Jinping Thought' is taught from primary school level. This has bred a collective known as 'Little Pinks' who voraciously defend China online and any slur or defeatist mention (such as Wukong not winning GOTY) is dealt with in a trolling frenzy that can be read about on the other related story here.

Re: Feature: Happy 30th Birthday to PlayStation

Happy Birthday Playstation!!

Spent part of my student loan on a PS1 and WipeOut when it arrived and I was blown away by it.

But it was TEKKEN that really stole my heart, an arcade perfect port that allowed me to practice and then beat many fellow students on the TEKKEN arcade that was present in the NHS bar.

Fond, fond memories.

Re: This Is Your Last Chance to Order PSVR's Free PS Camera Adaptor for PS5

I wish Sony would sell spares for the PSVR2. My car chewed the wire while I was playing a while ago, and although I have it all taped up again it still drops connection when my movements get too excited.

The connection wire can be removed and is separate, it's just got a proprietary connection to the headset that I can't find anywhere.

Re: Black Myth: Wukong PS5 Physical Copies Available in December

Futureshark

Finally beat last boss last night, now to enter Ng+ to get platinum!

Excellent game, might well be beating out Stellar Blade as my personal GOTY (sorry Eve).

Performance issues on base PS5, I saw very little of it, a couple of areas were slightly slow when looking but I always found the combat fine.
(Purple Cloud) Mountains out of molehills.

Re: Round Up: PS5 Pro Reviews Love New Tech and Its Glimpse of PS6 Potential

Well this quote from 'The Verge' has just about sealed it for me.
I'm 3m from my 55'' LG OLED.

'Find your favorite seat in front of the TV, then measure the distance between your head and the screen. Now measure your screen diagonally. Do you own a 65-inch or 55-inch TV, the most popular sizes? Do you sit 10 feet away or more? Then no, the PS5 Pro is probably not worth $700. Not even if you have 20/20 vision like me. The improved visual fidelity just isn’t tangible enough at that distance.'
