@deathaxe well, I only have one left because today I've pre-ordered a PS5 and an additional dualsense, so... I hope my body can work with no kidneys, since I'm willing to get Horizon 2 on launch 🥺...
Taxes here are incredibly high but what's worse it's the US dollar conversion rate. If you take the minimum monthly wage/salary here, you must spend 4 full months of work to get a PS5 digital edition.
I was able to pre-order I'm argentina today. It started 1PM and five minutes later I placed my digital ps5 pre-order plus another dual sense. Now... I doubt I can receive the unit on December 4th as that is the official release date here.
I'm waiting for pre-order to open where I live to get a PS5 (still haven't decided if digital or classic) , but I'm thinking on getting maybe a Series S down the road... I have a games PC also but there's certain charm in having a dedicated box for game pass and fast storage (PC with ssd is not fast, is just good specs).
Horrible. It's impossible to "build from the ground up" and still support PS4. I'm a developer and this is BS. You can dial back some things to support PS4… but many many features can't be just dialed back.
1440 / 60FPS , upscaled, should be very very good. It's nice to have the option to choose 30 or 60FPS. While I do play 30FPS with no problem ( horizon, uncharted 4, god of war, TLOU2, etc), when I first played TLOU Remastered 60FPS, then I tried to go 4K / 30FPS but... was too "slow".
It's really not a matter of 30FPS or 60FPS, but if we really need "true 4K"... I'm ok with any upscaling/reconstruction technique or whatever fits to produce a good image using the least procesing power... then we can see benefits either with increased FPS or increased fidelity (RT, whatever). True 4K is a waste, I think that is more or less an universal true right now, isn't?
Full of $#17. Of course, you can play tetris on any device since the 80s, but it's just tetris (and god, I do love tetris). And... Can you play Xbox One games on 360? Oh, You can't! Dear, you have been locked out! What a shameful practice...
@Grindagger 🤣 I know, I'm sort of musician also, but I wanted to keep it simple. You can do covers in many ways, take for instance the abominations of "Bossa n [add artist name]".
@Royalblues good words. I hope you didn't get the wrong impression from my comment. I'm fully against all kind of violence, discrimination, humiliation, and whatever attitude that points that someone is superior to another. Sadly is something present in all orders of human society, even within families. It's like we (as humans) cannot exist without a piramid of power and privileges.
While it's understandable, aren't the deaths caused by covid-19 something that makes "a celebration" a little odd? And then every day there are people dying because they have no food, no water, no basic medical attention, and in some countries people are slaughtered with no reason, but yes, those are times to celebrate? It's OK to be respectful now, but... What's the threshold for that?
I've never played Demon Souls or any Dark Souls game. Just a bit of Bloodborne but it still in my backlog. Last days I've been playing Jedi Fallen Order and only by the end of the game I've started to understand how to combat properly ( difficulty Jedi Master)... so now I'm interested in these kind of games, BUT... Being demon souls so "old"… how it can a remake harness the all the PS5 has to offer? For sure it will have almost no load times and nicer visuals, but level design and enemies and stuff must be the same as they were, otherwise it will be a different game, isn't? I'm asking those whom love the game so I can understand better.
@MarcG420 Argentina... anyway I've my PS4 Pro ready for be converted into cash as soon as I finish TLOU2. That will cover at around 50% of PS5 price I guess. I'm also willing to sell the PSVR (v2, two move controllers)... so more or less I think it will come down to whether or not it will be available here at launch.
Who cares about price?? If games are awesome, we will pay 700 USD if they ask 😅... And if games are just PS4 games with "better resolution" then 🤷♂️ (anyway that's not happening).
I've tried Gears on the 360 and for me was a generic game, awful character style (may I say art direction?) and so on. Never ever felt sorry for not being able to play Gears.
@Nich0 maybe my memory is playing tricks on me, but the only painful section on Mafia was the one you have to **** that silver car. Otherwise the game was an absolute joy to play.
@BigP Mafia is the best err... mafia game out there. The Godfather is OK but for me Mafia is the real godfather. And looking at this remake... Oh boy yes, it's an offer I can't refuse. Of course I hope they haven't removed the ability to flat the tires of the cars with gunshots.
The demo was epic (🙄) but I would love to see real-time destruction of objects and environments caused by player actions. Anyway it was a masterpiece to remember.
@PCPS4XB yes, I know. It runs on mobile devices also. What I would like to see is how much scaling (say cut back visuals/features) you have for every existing platform, be it PC, XBox Series X, PS4 etc. Of course I doubt they show that someday.
@Cutmastavictory Yes, I know, I mean this is all planned by Sony, not just a random event. So why not advertise this on their own communications channels? like "Hey, look, Epic will be showing some nice stuff running on PS5... take a look in a couple of days".
Really impressive, didn't think this kind of detail were possible in realtime (even at 30fps). But I wonder why Sony didn't made it's own presentation of "PS5 power" yet... Anyway there's something happening from Sony's side because I bet MS is crying out loud for not being able to put their name on this demo, which of course runs "the same" on Series X.
@ApostateMage I had it day one and played it non stop to the end of the main story, but left a lot of the map unexplored. I thought it was great but not up to New Vegas level.
@interista87 I would love a remake of the first one... Still remember the opening scene with the cigarette hitting the street, you knew right there it was something special. If I'm not wrong the game was made by Illusion Softworks, that previously made Hidden&Dangerous, that despite serious flaws was an incredible game and even better to play coop over lan.
Contract phones are usually "sold" at a laughable price point because you're tied with a company for the service... Here we are locked to a vendor and yet we must pay some cash and then buy games that aren't cheap either... games over Steam are way cheaper, even at launch, isn't? I think consoles should be almost given away 🤣 I would like to own both and then play games (pay for) on whatever platform is better suited for it.
While I expect hzd2 to blown us away (I was thinking about it while playing day one hzd), let's not forget that this is a launch title or early title on the console cycle. If a HDZ3 ever exists on PS5, that will more surely set the "limit" of PS5 hardware.

Re: Horizon Forbidden West, Spider-Man: Man Miles Morales 'Built from the Ground Up' for PS5, Despite PS4 Versions

Re: Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart Has Optional 60FPS Mode on PS5

Re: PS5 Exclusives Remain on Schedule Despite COVID-19 Pandemic
