@riceNpea 🤔

@riceNpea well I'm not sleeping again.. ever..

@ChingChengHanji WTF is wrong with you?

@Kidfunkadelic83 indeed. I was only thinking about purchasing gt7 but you sold me on it so I did...and I appreciate that you did because it's awesome fun with the steering wheel..not so with the pad.

@S1ayeR74 I was only commenting on not ever being too old to appreciate a good old jiggle. I can't offer an opinion on the game as I have not played it yet.

@Kidfunkadelic83 me too but you made me buy gt7 and the rest is history..

@Victor_Meldrew what?

@S1ayeR74 "oh dear too old for that rubbish." Speak for yourself grandad..I'm 52 and I still appreciate a good jiggle real or otherwise👍

@GymratAmarillo I've often pondered why steam sales and concurrent players blah,blah,blah are relevant to PlayStation gamers. It would be of interest if I was a PC gamer but I'm not anymore and don't plan to be again. I suppose other ps5 related news must be thin on the ground and somebody has to produce something to fill that space.

"Are we alone in thinking that takes away some of the game's magic" Yes you are. Awesome game and I've enjoyed myself immensely with the time I've spent playing it thus far. Even if the devs did test things in a live scenario I wouldn't care as the game is one of those rare games where it dosnt matter if you are playing with friends or randoms because the banter and communication is so good mostly, that it would add to one of those WTF? moments and just make that session more memorable. At a very personal dark time in my life there were a few pushsquare subbers that I had the privilege of playing hd2 with and the distraction they provided me was and will forever be appreciated. This is how live service games should be done.

@symmetrian really? I thought it ran OK but I play in performance mode when I do play it.

@Serialsid @BowsersBuddy 1000% agree 👍

Bf2042 was pretty good. I played it for quite a long time with my mates and we enjoyed it for what it is. Bad company 2 is still the best bf game and they should just remake that as it had the best maps and squad dm was a bloody hoot..

@Titntin same here. I've played it off and on but I have so many games on the go I just don't get the time to dedicate myself 100% to it. I bought the expansion too so I really should play it at some point.

"or perhaps it could have implemented some ray tracing tech." I was under the impression that the ps5 upgrade had ray tracing in the quality preset.

@Uromastryx double standards.

@Uromastryx I guess if you are an editor you are beyond reproach..

@Mikey856 (sarcasm alert!) No it dosnt don't lie. It looks like crap and plays like crap. It's impossible to play because it's so hideously broken and dated. The ps5 pros ancient cpu just can't cope so stop telling people what a great game it is ffs 🤣. Seriously though I can't decide between this and that other unplayable mess of a game wukong as my goty contenders. I've enjoyed both immensely and I'm chuffed you are enjoying it on your ps5 Pro.. I'll have to get one as soon as Xmas is done and dusted.

@ShogunRok you are an editor and put this comment out? I've seen lesser comments removed for being inappropriate before now.

I enjoyed this a fair bit more than I expected to. I wasn't a big fan of the cell shaded effects and I thought the voice acting was atrocious but I really liked the gameplay and its probably the best nfs game since underground 2.

@Blacksmith1985 my thoughts are with you all..take care.

@Blacksmith1985 how are you guys holding up over in the Ukraine my friend?

@Blacksmith1985 I'm aware of that but it was not a significant improvement over when it first released. I bought DS2 on the pc when it launched and then I bought the remaster on the ps4 and other than the included dlc and very minor cosmetic changes there was hardly any difference. A full remaster or remake would be nice.

@LikelySatan nothing wrong with being a fanboy. It's being one of the rabid zealots that foam at the mouth that's a problem.

I'll probably pick these up in a sale. As much as I like my nostalgic trips down memory lane I feel that this series of games deserved a full remake rather than a new luck of paint. A much squandered opportunity again...

Count me in. I love my dark souls games. A remaster of the 2nd game would have been preferable personally and of course bloodborne is right up there but it's never going to happen and I just can't play that game as it stands. 30fps I can stomach but the frame pacing just adds insult to injury.

@LavenderShroud welcome to push Square...

@lazarus11 apparantly cyberpunk is a fair bit better on the ps5 Pro..

Early days yet. I'm reading a lot more positive comments about the ps5 Pro than negatives. My mate is currently playing gt7 on his and he says it's damn nice and he is still bringing it round to my house to use my steering wheel on it. Buddy at work has bought one and he's happy as a pig in ***** with it. I think these issues are completely down to the devs not getting to grips with the new machine yet and hopefully by the time I get mine they will get better. So long as gt7 is better on it I'll be happy and I'm hoping EA sports wrc gets a pro upgrade too.

@Zuljaras I edited my response to your post as you didn't pick up on my sarcasm..my bad 👍

@Loamy I don't believe that people complain about poor quality releases. I'm sorry but I think you are soooo off the mark there 🤣. Also don't be encouraging devs to take as long as they need to make sure "your" NG+ experience is really good..how selfish of you.

@Zuljaras(cue sarcasm siren) But if they poured the money into the studios all the ps5 owners that are unhappy with the ps5 and really needed the pro and are now mostly happy (yes there are some who are not and are returning it apparantly) would have nothing to whinge about.

@Matroska thankyou for the tech lesson. I couldn't be bothered with one of those long winded DF type explanations and thought to myself that the people who frequent the comments sections would catch my drift without one. PCs can be very complicated compared to consoles but there is (I'll get this in first before I'm gaslighted) older tech wrapped up in new paint in the ps5 pro therefore it may take a few patches to iron things out as we have seen through the ps3,ps4,ps4 pro,ps5 and now the ps5 Pro eras..it won't stop there either.

@Loamy of course there's pressure to get the patches out fast..from the gamers who want the best of everything yesterday.

@Loamy "are you Pro anything? Wait, I can think of a couple likelihoods 🤔." Ooof careful sir..When new pc tech gets released as in gpus,cpus etc there are usually patches that follow because some games refuse to play nice and I see the ps5 Pro as being no different. Teething problems will always be an issue now and it's no big deal for the pc gamers so it should not be a big deal for console gamers unless people think that console gamers are somehow cut from a different cloth.

@Flaming_Kaiser you could always play warzone for free..I'd try it again but I don't have the space on my ssd for it. I wish they'd sort that bloody instal size out.

"From day one, the PS5 Pro has lacked the clear cut sales pitch that its mid-gen predecessor had." And yet its doing better sales wise than the ps4 pro did.

@breakneck I need to watch cross too. Paris has fallen was decent as well.

"whereas Hexwork’s Lords of the Fallen, a game that ran poorly on base PS5, is now running upscaled 4K at a rock solid 60fps. Similarly Ubisoft’s The Crew Motorfest marries the two base PS5 modes for a singular Pro mode, which combines 4K and 60fps — a far cry from the muddy 1080p of the base version." First off lords of the fallen was a bit janky at launch but was certainly very,very playable and hexworks support of the game was very good too. Motorfest looks perfectly fine on the base ps5 and certainly does not look muddy at all...its quite sharp really. I wish pushsquare would stop pushing these fallacies when trying to highlight things.

GT7 and HZD remaster for me folks..oh and the day of the jackal on sky atlantic as its just superb. Have a great weekend everybody 👍

@species not sure why lies of p being top in these awards was a bad thing. The game is excellent and seeing as these awards are all about the home grown Korean games it makes an awful lot of sense..unlike your comment.

@Oz_Who_Dat_Dare yes as soon as the ps5 launched the ui needed sorting out. You get used to it and I've never had much trouble navigating it but it does need a severe overhaul.

@Flaming_Kaiser just a quick question my friend..has warzone changed much since the latest cod game released? I haven't played it for over a year.

I still have not purchased this yet. When this released I was kneck deep in helldivers 2 and then dove straight into sim racing..I really need to grab ASAP.

@Oz_Who_Dat_Dare yeah the user interface has always been a bit of an oddity to say the least. Whenever I put ps4 games in the drive that have been upgraded to the ps5 version (cyberpunk) it ques the ps4 version but when I actually start the ps5 version it does absolutely nothing and will not continue to download the ps4 version. It's a slight annoyance and should have been rectified straight away..

Digitaly gaslit? I'm not so sure that's the correct use of the term. No doubt somebody will "gaslight" me to inform me I'm wrong 🤣

@Oz_Who_Dat_Dare not what I was implying..

@LowDefAl no I don't but I really don't think there was ever any issues about games not having a pro support for the ps4..I don't know maybe we were all to busy enjoying our games no matter if they were pro supported or not? Maybe expectations are that every game has to have that support or its just not on. I see your point and I'm not saying you are wrong nor do I want to appear as being argumentative. I sometimes think that non issues such as this are not really that important because it dosnt stop the base game from playing perfectly well. Are pushsquare going to highlight every game from now on for not having pro support or is it only going to name the big,juicy releases?

@LowDefAl also dosnt the sticker on ps5 games state that they are ps5 Pro enhanced? To me that means a better looking and playing game.

@LowDefAl OK that's a fair point..so why was it never a big issue when ps4 pro games didn't receive the same treatment? I know the ps5 Pro is sonys new shining star and rightly so because its very,very good but wasn't the ps4 pro seen in the same light? I just fail to see how this is that big an issue when it never was before.
