@yohn777 No. I can't see a difference at all from where I'm looking and I stand by that. Reading other people's comments here won't change my perspective.
The release schedule for now is quiet so they're just filling up the gaps until then. A sad state of affairs indeed. Sony are just a shell of their former selves.
@yohn777 Well seeing as you put it like that the difference as far as I can make out is non existent or barely noticeable. Certainly not something I would pay 800 for. I'm happy with what I have and I'm actually planning on buying a new Ultrawide curved gaming monitor anyway for PC. I'm not really sure if I'll use it for PS5 as native resolution for these monitors isn't supported apparently.
This is the most pointless Remaster so far. If ever there was a game that doesn't need a Remaster it's this one. The game already looks amazing even yet on both a PlayStation and a PC. If it's a free upgrade then sure but I know that won't happen.
@thefourfoldroot1 You're complaining about people complaining. Ironic don't you think? people are voicing their thoughts on an Article as are you. If you don't like what's being said then just ignore them. Oh and I'm VERY aware of what's going on around me considering Ireland is one of the most expensive countries to live in Europe right now. This being said using the inflation argument to defend greed just doesn't cut it anymore.
@Doctor_BK You wouldn't buy a $700 PC for AAA gaming though. Indie games sure but AAA? if you like playing in a small Window with the lowest graphics or not at all then sure. This guy is full of crap and you shouldn't listen to him.
Hated the time limit in the original game but I did get entertained going around beating people to a pulp with a Lawnmower and various other means. Still though this being said I think I'll wait for a Sale.
This is why I never update the system immediately. I always wait a while to see how it will play out. Glad I didn't update on this occasion even though I have the game on PC but still this sucks for people affected by this.
@get2sammyb Well we'll see but I stand by what I said either way. If people here want to get ripped off then that's up to them. I know what I'd rather put my money towards and it certainly isn't this rubbish.
@get2sammyb Yeah but they're not talking about Switch 2 on a regular basis. Like we get it it's going to be better than the base model. It's just annoying basically saying the same thing repeatedly is what he's saying.
I never complain about what is published here but this one time I'm afraid I'm on Cloud's side.
I'm working overtime now but when I get home I'll start a Playthrough of Astro Bot. I'll probably continue with my Half Life Alyx Playthrough too even though I lost my save for that game thanks to a power outage last night so I have to start again. I'll be jumping into Marvel vs Capcom Fighting Collection as well along with Gori Cuddly Carnage too even though admittedly I've reached a wall with the second boss. If it's not grenade spam from constantly respawning flying unicorns it's the dreadful camera along with lasers and waiting for my grenades to reload so I can inflict damage to the boss. It's a funny game but this boss fight isn't fun, AT ALL it's just infuriating.
@AgentGuapo I got mine on special offer and my point is most people myself included who have good PCs got them built some time ago. We don't need to spend an extra 700 just for slightly prettier visuals. Our games already look good.
Well I didn't like his remark, if anything he was being hostile to me and others like me just because we have a different view.
@CrashBandicoat I've got plenty money to burn but why would I waste it on a marginal upgrade? so marginal you'd barely notice the difference at all. I bought the PS4 Pro and I'm not making the same mistake here. It's PC for me from now on. You can get insane discounts on PC games, not so much with Console.
@The_Wailing_Doom incorrect? definitely not incorrect I speak from experience. I've only been purchasing and now getting my own PCs built since the late 70s but sure tell me I'm wrong. If a PC costs you more you're doing it wrong and lack experience. You wait for the right time to purchase components. A good PC doesn't have to cost you an arm and a leg like this ridiculously expensive hobby.
@gaston Because you're getting a good PC built just the once and it doesn't cost you an arm and a leg like Console gaming does. Oh and the appeal to PC games comes from being able to tweak the game to your liking too, Consoles don't give you that. This is coming from a guy who's been into PlayStation since PS1. I miss those days so much.
Anyone buying this now instead of waiting for a Price drop is weak and has no common sense whatsoever. Companies are laughing all the way to the bank with weaklings like this.
You know the only reason I'm here is because I still own a PlayStation, in fact I've been into PlayStation since PS1 but Sony this generation have just been appalling. Looking at these pictures it is blatantly obvious they've been edited. What? do they think people are stupid?
The upgrade is marginal and anyone who thinks otherwise is just delusional. You want a good upgrade just build a PC. PS5 Pro is something that simply isn't needed as the current hardware hasn't even been pushed yet.
I'm done with PlayStation after this generation, it's the same with Xbox.
Astro Bot Rescue Mission Astro's Playroom Beat Saber (PCVR) Gori Cuddly Carnage Squirrel with a Gun Resident Evil 4 Remake and Resident Evil Village. I will be playing Astro Bot on PS5 too but I feel like playing Rescue Mission on PSVR again and Astro's Playroom which I never actually bothered with before. Considering the praise it gets I'm curious to see what that game is like for myself.
Not atm because admittedly I'm glued to Beat Saber. I also want to play Astro Bot Rescue Mission on PSVR again followed by Astro's Playroom which I didn't bother with before starting this.
@MrPeanutbutterz I don't think they will either tbh seeing as they've made a pig's ear of supporting PSVR2 so far. Can't see that getting any better anytime soon. I have Quest 3 and Valve Index for my VR needs anyway and when I don't feel like playing on them I still have the great Library PS5 has to offer VR or not.
@MrPeanutbutterz Well we'll see, only time will tell. There is definitely an audience for VR and I know there are those that don't like VR but that doesn't mean they won't make a VR game. I'll definitely be there for it if and when it happens.
@MrPeanutbutterz I wouldn't call it floundering but it needs to do better and there's always PCVR along with the Quest as well even though I doubt it would make its way to Meta Quest, PCVR however is another story.
I still wish the game had a VR Mode but after watching lots of footage of it to help me make a purchase decision I'm willing to overlook that. This being said I can only hope that if this game does well which I think it will the developers will hopefully make a VR Astro Bot game next time.
@crossbit Thanks that's a very good explanation there. I really dislike games that reset progress after death, some do it worse than others and Star Wars Outlaws sounds annoying more than anything. I don't think though that alone would deter me personally in buying the game but it is definitely something people should be made aware of.

Still have this game for PSP and I'll be honest it's total *****. Clank pretending to be James Bond was/is just silly.

Re: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth 'Hugely Improved' on PS5 Pro, a 'Night and Day' Difference
