OS software and features were never Sony's strong point.

The Legend Of Dragoon

@Enuo They're all hardcore "whoever pays my bills the most" fans.

@get2sammyb It should AT LEAST default to the console version you're playing on though. And an opt in toggle if you want the old for a separate trophy list.

Awful design on how it's handled by Sony. At least the Xbox automatically prevents this. Very on brand for Sony so far this gen though.

@wiiware Terrible comparison. When Persona 5 came out the PS3 was dead several years by that point and there were already dozens of millions of PS4s because everyone had moved on.

Compared to Spiderman which is selling more on a console not even out yet.

@nessisonett Everything looks better than anything on Switch to be fair

@thefourfoldroot There is nothing truly next gen about a game designed around a jaguar CPU and GCN GPU.

@thefourfoldroot Except that there are none to compare yet. It's all cross gen.

Lol it's cute seeing console guys now dealing with what we've been doing on PC for years. It's like a child on christmas. Wholesome.

@thefourfoldroot Likely not an option based on PS4 dev environment. It's clearly the issue that the PS4 software was not designed to output.

@thefourfoldroot But the PS5 is running it as an overclocked PS4 because it's not a native PS5 port. It is treated as a PS4 game and has to stick to the development environmental enforced 60fps cap.

@thefourfoldroot Because unlocking the frame rate on a PS4 game will likely cap out at 60fps due to how the PS4 development environment was coded.

@thefourfoldroot Output on PS4 likely capped to 60fps. Dirt has a native PS5 port.

Friend of mine got 2 PS5s and 1 of his HDMI ports is faulty. Visual artifacts and won't output sound over HDMI.

@naruball Thanks for proving my point. Since there was no way to dispute the facts because I'm right, you got in your feelings over plastic and here you are going to insults.

@GamingFan4Lyf Agreed. This is why I don't take fanboys seriously. I'll gladly wait out the FF16 timed exclusivity myself.

"Rules for thee, not for me"

It makes me so happy I get to use this comment again because there are literally people in the comments section complaining about Microsoft paying to keep upgrades of existing games off PS5 (which still work in BC mode), while Sony are paying for modes and even entire games to stay off other platforms for an entire year.

"Keep that same energy you guys have when Sony does it and you praise it all the time"

@Shepherd_Tallon Yeah, I'm sick of Sony paying for timed exclusives as well. Glad we're on the same page.

Downscaled is such a stupid term. It's called supersample.

Higher quality everything comes with a price.

@LiamCroft TLOU, Spiderman, SOTC. One could argue the "remaster/remake is only on ps4", fine.

But most notably, Horizon Zero Dawn.

Edit: FF7R even confirmed as multiplat in the original announcement.

Bunch of multiplats included on this list for some reason.

@God_of_Nowt Cool, thanks. I have my games all on an external SSD so I was planning on doing a network transfer for save files and remaining few leftover small things.

Hey Push Square, is there an option to transfer your entire PS4 contents via LAN to PS5? Including PS4 save games?

Well, except for PT lol

I'll have to uninstall it from my external SSD since that is patched. Then I'll just pop the disc in with the ethernet cable out whenever I get around to a PS5. That game is ridiculously sluggish in it's current form.

Don't you mean "the former a timed exclusive" because I haven't seen anything about RE8 being timed.

@fluggy They actually did say exactly that in the deep dive back in march.

Specifically said "don't go out and buy any just yet because they're not on the market till later this year" and "our drive is 5.5gbps, it will need to at least be equal but preferably faster"

@fluggy I hope you mean an SN850, or you chose poorly

@thedevilsjester Actually they said equal or preferably a little bit faster to be safe. Per the Cerny deep dive. There was no implication of considerably faster at all. 5.5mbps will work. My guess is 6000mbps to be "safe". PC drives releasing now are considerably faster than the PS5 drive and we're now very close to maxing out PCIE 4.0

@SlouchingToast There are already multiple drives that have exceeded the PS5 raw speed requirement now for the last few weeks.

@AdamNovice Store, not play from. Like.xbox can. Quicker to transfer back to the console to be able to play them than redownload or reinstall from disc.

@Mpquikster Yes but you need to be logged in to the PSN account they were bought with (if digital) or have the disc available (if physical)

@GKO900 The playstation community have an unhealthy obssession with Kojima.

Just like FF16 and Demons Souls and whatever that other Project game from Squeenix.

I do get a kick out of all the "financial deal!!!!" comments because I always make sure to point out "keep the same energy you had when Sony were paying for timed exclusive games or content and you were praising that".

Dynamic 4k btw

@lacerz Also a viable option. People want all the improvements but don't want to face the cost of said improvements.

You want next gen quality textures and effects? Here you go. You don't? We have a product for you, it's called PS4.

Just buy the PC version of the original. It looks the best, can mod in the proper music and almost all the extra S content is completely worthless.

@Medic_Alert If anyone actually believes it was human error, then they're gonna be disappointed. These things get reviewed and passed through multiple levels of checks multiple times.

Besides, both FFXVI and Demon's Souls had their wording changed from "also available on PC" to "not available on other platforms for a limited time". I guarantee you it was only changed after Sony saw the instant ridicule they got.

They're coming and will be best on PC.

@Rob_230 If Syndicate wasn't on the list I probably wouldn't have bothered posting it tbh, since other than that they're all pretty small games.

Sony might wanna revisit their PS5 BC list because Ubisoft just announced a bunch of their games won't be BC on PS5, including some AC games.

@Deadlyblack Ubisoft love the "play as anyone" approach as you don't need to write good characters/stories that way.

They did the same in ZombiU, play as anyone.

@East76landS Multi billion euro/dollar industry

@East76landS Basically netflix for anime

Not a fan of this news. Don't like the idea of a company becoming the Disney of anime.

I've already refunded it and will pick it up cheap down the line during a Steam sale. I've got plenty of stuff to play on my personal backlog as well as about 6 months worth in my professional backlog too.

@wiiware Considering what PC did for Skyrim, it's a very likely situation. Mods carried Skyrim for years and millions if sales.
