To upgrade to Extra for me is £84.99 for 1173 days (approx 3.2 years). I was expecting it to be the difference between the annual costs for Essential and Extra (£34) multiplied by years remaining, so it's less than I expected. Happy with that!
@rjejr @fingalf Were you guys able to play the game at all or had the 5 hours expired before you even got to start? My download's only half done so I want to know whether to just cancel it!
@RubyCarbuncle @GreatAuk I live in rural Spain. I have 15Mb and the wife streaming Netflix in another room! I need to try to get something better without breaking the bank.
@quintumply Could you play via backwards compatibility on PS5 while your girlfriend plays in another room on your old PS4? Or have you already flogged the PS4? I'm in the same situation by the way and was hoping that could be my solution!
Didn't vote, but got as part of a PS5 bundle. Decided to sell on eBay and just rebuy down the line when it's fixed and cheaper. Probably won't wait for PS5 version
@get2sammyb Any idea what the power consumption of the console is? Currently living in a camper van and often relying on solar to power my PS4 Pro game time. Need a less power hungry console!
@andreoni79 I'm a big fan of psprices but unless there's something I'm missing there's no way of scrolling through a list of your favourite games to quickly see what's discounted is there? (I really hope there is something I'm missing!). I added all my old wishlist games to my 'Liked' list but i still have to open each individual game to see if it's discounted.
The email i got today from Sony said "The Wishlist feature will be discontinued and any items currently on “Your Wishlist” will be removed", so it's not just PS3 and Vita stuff being removed from your wishlist (which is what i originally thought) but the whole feature disappearing. Seriously how bloody backwards is that? I use the wishlist for practically every purchase i make.
Nothing about PS5 makes me want to buy one yet (and I've been day one for the last 4 consoles if you incl PS4 Pro and Vita), so i don't care about the shiny new wishlist on PS5.
For me at least Sony have properly ballsed up the PS5 release.
@God_of_Nowt I hate to be a pedant but your £1000 graphics card would have cost approx £833 with another £167 (20% of £833) going to our robbing government.
Bugger. Haven't used a microphone in 30-odd years of gaming. I just want to be able to use my rather expensive (Sony) Bluetooth headphones which I already can't use with my PS4 or Switch. I'd assumed it would be possible with PS5.
Nothing for me but a good line-up nonetheless. Not interested in sports games and have played (and enjoyed) RoTR and Erica. Will probably grab RoTR as I might fancy re-playing it at some point.

"the game’s sense of exploration is being hampered by the sheer number of repetitive enemy encounters".
I've been playing the first game and this has really done my head in. A short journey from A to B is sooooo tedious because of this.

Re: Try Cyberpunk 2077 for Free with PS5, PS4 Trial
@kunimatsu Thanks for the info. Just FYI - there have been previous trials where the timer started as soon as you started the download so don't underestimate Sony's stupidity! https://www.pushsquare.com/news/2021/10/sony-introduces-game-trials-try-ps5-games-for-a-limited-time

Re: Soapbox: Sony Needs to Bang Down Valve's Door to Get Half-Life: Alyx on PS5's PSVR
Absolutely no interest in any FPS for VR or non-VR - I know it's a huge genre but bores me to tears. Definitely getting PSVR2 though.
