Re: Rumour: PS Plus Essential PS5, PS4 Games for December 2022 Leaked Early

@Psnfanboy79 Did it come tracked/signed for? If not, and they left it by your front door, then you never received it and you now want a refund.

Or, assuming they just posted it through your letterbox and that the above isn't an option, there's a nasty scratch on the disc that means the game doesn't install and under statutory rights you want to return it for a refund.

Loved the me trilogy first time around, and that was on an Xbox 360 without any of the DLC.

Nearly bought the LE on a sale many times, but contented myself with the expectation it would arrive on Extra sooner or later. So in light of Sony removing some Extra games after fairly short periods and without a great deal of notice, to get this as a permanent addition to the library via Essential is an absolutely brilliant result for me.

Happy days.

Re: PS Plus Extra Was Designed as a 'Best of' PS Now Game List

@LifeGirl couldn't agree less. The PAL versions of Japanese PS1 stuff such as Tekken and Ridge Racer were appalling. Noticeably slower and with large borders top and bottom of the screen. I bought an import PS1 to avoid it, most didn't or couldn't because back then you still had to have a multistandard TV for that to work. Good riddance to those days.

Re: All PS Plus Memberships Are on Sale Now, Save 25%

I lucked into a long Premium sub that runs until 2026 thanks to the 'buy a month of Now and loads of PS+' loophole earlier in the year.

For me, the value from Extra has been amazing, but I can't say I would miss Premium at all. And as others have said, there's no way for a subscriber who has some Premium to extend on a discount period and just buy Extra. And the month my premium expires (Jan) there'll be no offers on Extra lol. So either pay full price, or have no sub at all until the next BF and stack then. Weird.

Poor effort. Also stupid. Why would this encourage anyone to purchase their future attempts if this is their attitude towards a game which is still nowhere near fixed? Certainly my first and last purchase of this series.

Compare with the likes of studios such as IO Interactive, Insomniac and Motion Twin for post-launch support and they're just an embarrassment. Scummy.

Re: PS5 Firmware Update Makes Massive User Interface Improvements

Gamer_Guy

Whenever I play my old PS4 Pro, now donated to a good friend, I'm struck by how much faster it is to get around on the Pro. Saving/loading game data, choosing a game, folders, going through options menus.. everything is so much more intuitive.

I hope Sony get somewhere back near it on the PS5 one day, but piecemeal stuff like today's update doesn't leave me very optimistic.

Oh, and almost two years on I still hate the feel of the silly PS shaped central button on the dualsense compared with the simple round one on the DS4.
