Up until July 23 I didn't have a 4k TV so it was no brainer to do performance mode but would have regardless as feel games look great at 1080p and upscaled and smooth performance makes it play better and gameplay beats graphics for me
They need to fix colour of the compass. It's hard to see when on speeder unless you have that ugly black background behind it but that's so ugly it looks like a placeholder
@TheDudeElDuderino I finished origins and didn't think it was too long but I did miss lots of side missions. Both odyssey and Valhalla were way too long and gave up in both long long long before the end
@Blofse @Pusher2021 I thought I'd missed out. But got it but did miss out on getting it £10 cheaper unfortunately but just happy to be getting it. All 4 of us in the household want to play the game and especially on that pad
Simplygames failed to get me my copy in release date. Surely the minimum a customer should expect with a pre-order is getting it on release date? Won't be using them again.
I'm still excited for my copy to arrive today. It may not be perfect but who was expecting it to be? I'll go in with an open mind. I'll play in performance mode with film grain off. Can't wait

Re: Days Gone PS5 Remaster Rumours Start to Snowball
@Zeke68 I was no good at motorstorm 1. Got quite good at apocalypse though. But they definitely need remaster. Killzone 2 and 3 too
Re: Days Gone PS5 Remaster Rumours Start to Snowball
I'm just gutted we never got a Resistance trilogy remaster. Or infamous 1 and 2
Re: PS Plus Members Get Hundreds of PS5, PS4 Discounts in New PS Store Sale
@TheFakulty have you started sinking city at all? Always been tempted by it but not sure if it's any good
Re: The Plucky Squire (PS5) - Joyful, Inventive Adventure on Every Page of PS Plus Gem
Played about 90 mins. It's fun and love the art style but it's definitely a tad easy so far and that's on adventure mode.
My main concern is it says I'm 30% done but feel hardly got started.
Re: The Plucky Squire (PS5) - Joyful, Inventive Adventure on Every Page of PS Plus Gem
@smellyplaymarky it's downloading now for me. Hope it's worth the wait
Re: The Plucky Squire (PS5) - Joyful, Inventive Adventure on Every Page of PS Plus Gem
@Golem25 simple solution would be just don't play it surely? No one's forcing you to. Being a Norwich fan clearly isn't doing much for your mood 😂
Re: The Plucky Squire (PS5) - Joyful, Inventive Adventure on Every Page of PS Plus Gem
@smellyplaymarky they need to get their heads out their backsides and get it ready for download.
Waiting till 5pm was already too late on a release day but not to even meet that time is a joke
Re: The Plucky Squire (PS5) - Joyful, Inventive Adventure on Every Page of PS Plus Gem
Still not available on UK store for me.
Re: 13 New PS Plus Extra, Premium Games Available to Download Now on PS5, PS4
Thought plucky squire was meant to be ready to buy at 17:00 in the UK? Still not showing
Re: 13 New PS Plus Extra, Premium Games Available to Download Now on PS5, PS4
@Blofse maybe I'm just too impatient lol
Re: 13 New PS Plus Extra, Premium Games Available to Download Now on PS5, PS4
This annoys me. If America was ahead of us they wouldn't have to wait until 5pm to get a game. We get punished for our time being ahead of them.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 546
@ErrantRob congratulations on the arrival of your 3rd
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 546
@SolarSpirit86 I have a feeling this will drop in price before long. Maybe something I'd get for me n the kids when it's under £25
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 546
@Splat I'm taking my time on purpose too. You dont want to rush a good thing.
If I time it right I can go straight on to the plucky squire
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Astro Bot?
@Sergo I can see people who don't like platform games giving it 7 or less but why play and rate something you had no prospect of liking?
The person who put 1 is likely a bitter fan boy
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Astro Bot?
Whoever put 1 is a sad pathetic troll
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Astro Bot?
If 10 is outstanding/ masterpiece it's definitely a 10. If it meant perfect it would be close but not quite as nothing is perfect.
It's pure joy and everyone I've seen play it does it with a big smile. How can you argue with that?
I've not wanted to play anything else since it came out and I'm savouring it
Re: Filming on Ubisoft's Watch Dogs Movie Has Wrapped
Never even knew filming began or that it existed.
Re: PS5 Players Choose Performance Mode 75% of the Time

Re: 13 More Games Join PS Plus Extra, Premium Next Week
My 2 most anticipated games of the year were Astro Bot and plucky squire and I'll likely finish astro and straight on to plucky.
I'm savouring astro though
Re: All PS5 Pro Compatible Games
@Atreus97 they could and should be able to run at decent resolution at 60fps on standard PS5.
I just doubt rockstar or WB think it would bring in enough money to be worth putting anyone on patching them

Re: PS5 Pro Announced, Costs $700 and Out in November
@SterlingEyes exactly. A lot of people can afford to buy it if it was worth it but at that price it's not.
I couldn't afford it actually as the price of funeral would need to be factored in after my wife killed me 😂
Re: PS5 Pro Announced, Costs $700 and Out in November
Just too expensive unfortunately
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2?
I'll be honest it wasn't something on my radar but it's something I may check out of they improve performance mode and when it's a bit cheaper.
From having no games I wanted to play to having star wars outlaws, vampire survivors and Astro Bot on the go (well at the mo only astro bot)
Then next week plucky squire and then epic Mikey rebrushed. So it's something I'd want to play but in no rush at the moment
Re: Days Gone Director Roasts 'Small Game' Astro Bot PS5 for Deacon St John Cameo
Just petty. Like a petulant brat
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Astro Bot?
@TrickyDicky99 your name's accurate if we ignore the tricky part 😂
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Star Wars Outlaws?
From what I've played it's decent but flawed. Its a lot of fun when it's good but can be frustrating at times.
Id go with 7 which in my scale means very good.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 545
@Medic_alert Astros playroom was my favourite until Astro Bot.
Ps5 is now a great place for 3D platformers. Also got ratchet rift apart, 60fps update of ratchet 2016, sackboy, and upcoming epic Mikey rebrushed
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 545
@amatmulisha if Judas lives up to potential it'll be amazing
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 545
@FinneasGH it's great isn't it. Wasn't on my radar but played the trial d bought it with 45mins still remaining
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 545
I wanted a happy fun weekend so had to play Astro Bot.
We're all loving it. It's endlessly inventive and just a pleasure to play
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Astro Bot?
@hypnotoad I'm in agreement there and don't think we'll be alone in thinking that.
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Astro Bot?
@Old-Red 100% agreed. My whole family loves it. Pure fun
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Astro Bot?
@TrickyDicky99 it's gone down was £20 in last article? Awwww what's a matter saying £20 not get you enough attention?
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Astro Bot?
Believe the hype. It's pure fun. Me and my wife taking turns on our own profiles both blown away by it and grinning like loons lol
Re: Astro Bot (PS5) - One of the Greatest PlayStation Platformers of All Time
@TrickyDicky99 yeah you keep telling yourself that 😂
Re: Astro Bot (PS5) - One of the Greatest PlayStation Platformers of All Time
@TrickyDicky99 you'll be waiting at least a year then. Likely more
Re: Astro Bot (PS5) - One of the Greatest PlayStation Platformers of All Time
@Jimmer-jammer 2 of my favourite games them. Can't beat a good 3d platformer
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Vampire Survivors?
Played the trial and it's so much fun. For 3.60 or however much I paid it was a no-brainer
Re: Star Wars Outlaws Director a 'Little Disappointed' with Critical Reception
@TheDudeElDuderino I finished origins and didn't think it was too long but I did miss lots of side missions. Both odyssey and Valhalla were way too long and gave up in both long long long before the end
Re: Star Wars Outlaws Director a 'Little Disappointed' with Critical Reception
It's not as good as I'd hoped but I'm enjoying it for the most part. It'll fall by the wayside for a bit tomorrow when I can start Astrobot

Re: Your Astro's Playroom Progress Will Transfer to Astro Bot on PS5
@Sequel yeah I noticed that. It's brilliant.
Re: Test Your PlayStation General Knowledge - Astro Bot Special
8 of 10 after a few drinks. I'll take that 😂
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 544
My copy of Star Wars outlaws finally arrived so had a blast of that. I think it looks and runs great on performance mode.
I'm at a wedding night do tonight so I'll be on it tomorrow.
Triis 2 hour trial of vampire survivors. Can see why it's highly rated. For less than £4 I'll definitely have to buy it for quick fixes

Re: Cult Classic Platformer Croc: Legend of the Gobbos Getting the Remaster Treatment
Get in. I have rose tinted memories of this flawed gem.
I think with revamped controls this could be a fun blast as the original controls really are awful. Painful in fact
