Tekken games are always easy platinums. Typically an enjoyable experience though without having to veer to far off what you'd do naturally. Look forward to adding this on to the collection!
Do people actually have time to game for 12 hours straight?!! I've never had issues with the dual shock 4 or dualsense battery life personally. 4-8 hours is plenty for one gaming session imo but at least their addressing feedback!
Man I used to love E3 week, would take time off just to watch certain conferences, but the writing has been on the wall for a while now. Not suprising but still a bit sad to see it go
@Jay767 good to hear. I missed out on the betas but happy it played well. I almost never play online outside of getting trophy requirements done but I hope they improved it for ya!
Anyone who's "miffed" needs to grow up. Just because it didn't win anything in what's essentially a popularity contest doesn't take anything away from the game. It was my personal GOTY and in no way does this change that. This game will sell 10s of millions, I'm sure that's probably more important to Insomniac/Sony anyway 🤷🏾♂️
Definitely looks better than expected but still a pass. If history has showed us anything this game is gonna come in hot and probably be extremely buggy and broken for the first year or so. Hopefully it comes to Plus in the future
Picked mine up this morning. Not a huge difference but the smaller size is definitely appreciated. Not a fan of the glossy top panels but that's an insignificant gripe.
Hopefully the digital slim goes up for order soon.
Hardly surprising. Even as a member of the 1,000+ hour Destiny club its plain to see they're pretty much out of ideas. We still enjoy it from time to time and i'm excited about the final shape whenever it releases, but I doubt the game will have much of a following in the next few years. Been a great ride but the end is definitely in sight.
@Flaming_Kaiser I would suggest putting it in a place where that's not even a remote possibility. Trust me with kids and dogs I've had that happen a few times ha
@Mikey856 not 100% sure off the top of my head. Our 2 have been without stands for well over a year at this point and I haven't noticed anything abnormal heatwise, not home at the moment to check.
It was fine I guess. Helldivers looks great, SM2 obviously looks amazing but really don't need to see more, though the controllers look neat we already have 10 of em , everything else wasn't for me. Maybe a 6/10.
@MinotauroBJJ I feel exactly the same way. Backbone was ok at first but the tradeoffs make it annoying to use at times. Excited for the Portal as well!
Love the look of them. The red isn't as vibrant as I was expecting but still a great design. Sold the plates to a buddy of mine who couldn't get a pair but definitely happy to have a fresh console as our launch one was making some unsettling noises as of late.
@Mikey856 silly me, totally forgot! Everyone has the same exact setup/needs so since it's not needed for some must be unnecessary for everyone else too

Re: Upgraded PS5 Controller with Hugely Improved Battery Life Spotted
@AstraeaV exactly. I don't even think my teenagers would sit and game that long without taking breaks lol. Always seemed like a bizarre complaint

Re: Poll: What's Your Most Anticipated PS5 Game of 2024?
Of those listed, honestly Tekken 8 is the only one that gets me going. The rest are either skips or wait to come to Plus/Gamepass

Awesome game, love the series since the PS1 days. Hopefully we get another built for current gen soon!
Re: Poll: What Will Win Game of the Year at The Game Awards 2023?
Either Zelda or BG3 will win it. Personally I'd go with Spiderman 2 and even Wonder over those but I think one of those will get it.
Re: Poll: Did You Buy a PS Portal?
Yes and it's been fantastic so far, well worth the price
Re: Suicide Squad Returns with All-New PS5 Gameplay
Definitely looks better than expected but still a pass. If history has showed us anything this game is gonna come in hot and probably be extremely buggy and broken for the first year or so. Hopefully it comes to Plus in the future
Re: 14 PS Plus Extra, Premium Games Coming Next Week
Jet Moto!! We played the crap out of that game when I was younger. Wonder why they've never revised it but definitely a welcome addition!
Re: Talking Point: As PS5 Turns 3, How Are You Feeling About It?
Love it thus far! Has had some stellar games and with BC a huge library to get through. Best console since the PS2
Re: Hardware Review: PS Portal Is the Perfect PS5 Companion (For Some)
Sounds wonderful, definitely going to get a ton of use in my house!
Re: Yes, You Can Attach the New PS5's Detachable Disc Drive to Another Console
A very niche use case but something I may actually run into so this is good news!
Re: Poll: Are You Buying a PS5 'Slim'?
Already did this morning!
Re: PS5 'Slim' Is Now Officially for Sale in the US
Picked mine up this morning. Not a huge difference but the smaller size is definitely appreciated. Not a fan of the glossy top panels but that's an insignificant gripe.
Hopefully the digital slim goes up for order soon.
Re: People Are Beginning to Play Around with PS5's Remote Play Handheld
Excited to get my hands on this next week!
Re: Taxi Life on PS5 Ain't So Crazy, But It Does Have an Authentic Recreation of Spain
This looks wonderful, hope it works well with a wheel!
Re: The Battle for Game of the Year in a Superb 2023 Begins on Monday
Zelda will most likely get it though I was pretty disappointed by it personally. My GOTY is hands down Spiderman 2!
Re: PS5 Slim 'Not That Much Smaller', According to This Teardown Video
Not a massive change but still worth switching imo. Looking forward to getting my hands on one this week!
Re: The First Photos of the PS5 Slim Are Circulating Online

Re: Biggest Gran Turismo 7 Update Ever Adds Cars, Tracks, Modes, Challenges
Solid update, will have to jump in tomorrow for sure!
Re: Interest in Destiny 2 Reportedly at an All-Time Low

Re: Marvel's Spider-Man 2 Is a PS5 Masterpiece, According to Super Smash Bros Maker
It really is. I knew I would to enjoy it for sure, but it exceeded my expectations in every way. Easily my GOTY
Re: PS Plus Subscribers Can Get $30/£30 Off Two PS5 Products from Sony's Official Store
A nice gesture but with Black Friday/holiday sales a month away probably better to just wait.
Re: PS5 Slim Doesn't Come with a Vertical Stand, Needs to Be Bought Separately
@Flaming_Kaiser I would suggest putting it in a place where that's not even a remote possibility. Trust me with kids and dogs I've had that happen a few times ha
Re: PS5 Slim Doesn't Come with a Vertical Stand, Needs to Be Bought Separately
@Flaming_Kaiser no thanks, I think they look atrocious horizontal lol
@Mikey856 noted, thanks for pointing that out
Re: PS5 Slim Doesn't Come with a Vertical Stand, Needs to Be Bought Separately
@Mikey856 not 100% sure off the top of my head. Our 2 have been without stands for well over a year at this point and I haven't noticed anything abnormal heatwise, not home at the moment to check.
Re: PS5 Slim Doesn't Come with a Vertical Stand, Needs to Be Bought Separately
Tbh the normal PS5s don't really need a stand either. They're plenty stable vertically without it. I assume this will be the same
Re: The Crew Motorfest (PS5) - Third Time's the Charm in This Vibrant, Varied Racer
Game is superb! Would definitely recommend muting the dialogue from the jump. Trust me you won't be missing much lol. Great review!
Re: Poll: Was Sony's Latest State of Play Worth the Wait?
It was fine I guess. Helldivers looks great, SM2 obviously looks amazing but really don't need to see more, though the controllers look neat we already have 10 of em , everything else wasn't for me. Maybe a 6/10.
Re: 20 PS Plus Extra, Premium Games Coming Next Week
Nice collection, nothing for me in there but hope others find some value!
Re: PS5, PS4 Remote Play Now Enabled for More Android Devices
@MinotauroBJJ I feel exactly the same way. Backbone was ok at first but the tradeoffs make it annoying to use at times. Excited for the Portal as well!
Re: Video: Spider-Man 2's Striking PS5 Console and DualSense Controller Unboxed
@Nintendo4Sonic yes many times.
Re: Video: Spider-Man 2's Striking PS5 Console and DualSense Controller Unboxed

Re: Poll: Did You Buy Baldur's Gate 3?
No, not at all. Have watched a few hours of streams and can say for sure it's definitely not my type of game. I'm glad so many are enjoying it though!
Re: EA Sports WRC Takes Rallying 'Next-Gen' on PS5 This November
