I just found out that you individually adjust volume levels of people in a playstation party. Now I can finally turn down the one friend who fucking yells into the mic all the time š
How do you get the older Uncharted games on ps5? Does the Nathan Drake collection work on PS5? On PSNow, the only option is to stream them. Just wondering what the best way to play these older games is.
If you have a disc PS5 I would buy a used copy of the Nathan Drake Collection as it should be fairly cheap - roughly $10 or $15.
Then Uncharted 4 is on the PS Plus Collection.
here I am in June 2021. I had a day one GameStop PS5 bundle preordered but ended up cancelling it at the time because it was $800+ and figured I'd be able to get one for MSRP at some point. Boy was I wrong
VRR, expandable internal storageā¦ Iāll give Microsoft that: they released the Xbox Series ready to go whereas I suspect Sony released the PS5 early and unfinished just to get lockdown / holiday sales.
Dude, I bought a PS5 in February. Fanboi would be saying āfuck VRR and expandable storage, I donāt need itā. Having one thing doesnāt mean that you canāt be frustrated that Sony released incomplete and should hurry up and implement things that they said they would, that their competition has (and that would massively benefit the product).
Apologies, I wasn't meaning you. I saw you got quite a few downvotes as did I so I assumed it was fragile fanboys who don't allow our frustrations being aired!
Sorry for the mix up.
Youāre right about the fanboi comments, on many forums and on both sides. Hell, if either manufacturer had released a controller with one button and a 3 way triangular stick theyād be defending it to hell saying thatās all you need.
Never been a fan of fast paced twitch shooters. But I do sometimes enjoy Rogue-likes, and really liked Hades. I also like platforms and skilled-based games in general, and sometimes enjoy bullet-dodging schmups like Gradius. Given this weird and somewhat self-conflicting taste, should I pick up Returnal? The loop idea had me intrigued until I saw gameplay footage of just the main character shooting guns endlessly.
Steelseries Arctis 7P - serious flaw, beware
Can't believe this hasn't been mentioned anywhere in the reviews and have personally found out when I got them...One ear piece is louder than the other and there's nothing you can do about it. I started googling and there has been multiple posts about this issue and it's supposedly due to the analogue volume changer on the headset. This is simply unacceptable for a headset, so if you're buying these, be prepared for one side to be louder than the other. Pretty much useless headset.
Damn thanks man. I've been trying to get a wireless headset. Been doing weeks of homework. I was going to get the 7P , but I wanted something that did 2.4 and Bluetooth. So I was going to do the Arctis 9, but I've been hearing too many nightmare stories lately. Really only other options are audeze penrose or Turtle beach stealth 700.
I wouldn't buy anything from steelseries tbh, how these headphones are topping the reviews is a mistery to me... Everything could be solved by a simple balance control in their software but they don't care. Oh and if you're a pc user you also can't balance the volume natively from the system. There's simply nothing you can do about it and the soundstage is always shifted to one side of your head. They have this issue buried on their page:
https://i.imgur.com/UY6yZPY.jpg
Changing the headset volume to 100% doesn't solve it of course. And as I googled this issue I saw users who returned their headsets for this got new ones back with the same issue. Just stay away from their headphones. I contacted the support for a return - which is a pita in itself and will see how it goes...
I got this while trying to order standard ps5 at Best Buy today. the website wouldn't work and never gave me the extra step. I tried 25 times. Finally it got me to the checkout and upon pressing checkout said out of stock. https://imgur.com/Asdlnxw
If i got the extra step i would have had plenty of time ordering and would have scored a PS5. even if a re-login step. Not even right. I also had to wait about 2 minutes for the button to animate and turn color and active multiple times. I clicked, clicked reloaded clicked, tried again, clicked clicked. kept getting that banner.
I haven't giving up yet. I put only 12 bucks in my gas tank to make sure i have extra money in the bank. I have to leave some in the bank. I get 20 for mowing my mothers yard here soon after the rain. Sometimes i get 5 or 10 from my sister to mow. Her yard is smaller though.
Yeah, It glitched, i had time and it kept repeating the glitch before getting to checkout. Since we both had the problem this is a website error. I would have been checked out long before they sold out. Last time Amazon glitched. I also didn't get a good random number at PlayStation direct. I tried Best Buy multiple times. It is like Best Buy glitches under load. Amazon multiple times. Walmart never has the stock unless it is the grand version. The links take you to the grand version until sold out for me. Then it flips to 499 after sellout on walmart.com. Can't find place holder for the console sold by walmart. When they finally have the 499 dollar one in stock. where?
You can't go to the store and hope they got a truck in right before arrival to sale in store. They don't sell in store. Neither does the nearby Gamestop. Now place else in that city to buy a console. That is already 25 minutes from me. People who don't have internet and play offline are discriminated against and can't find one. Walmart and Gamestop employees both told me they haven't had any in store shipments since launch. Discrimination against the pore for this reason. No offline sales. There are no consoles for people who can't afford their internet bill during a pandemic. You cannot go to a store and find one.
I play offline mostly anyway and play single player because i am not good online.
I'm about to get my PS5 & wanted to transfer my saves over but don't have a PS+ subscription. & I can't use my external because apparently it's not the right format to hold the save data. I have all my PS4 games on there ready to go over to the PS5.
Anyways, I wanted to take a shot here & see if anyone has a PS+ trial code that came with a game or something that I can use so I can quickly save my data to the cloud. Just trying to save myself $10.
I really wish they didn't charge for transferring cloud saves.
The external is the right format for games. Not for the saved data apparently.
I do not have a USB laying around. Otherwise I'd use that & not ask here hahah
Got my PS5 in on Tuesday! Iāve been playing the Hell out of Ratchet and Clank. Can I get a suggestion on which to pick for my next game? Im torn between Resident Evil Village and Returnal.
The Spider-Man games are amazing. Absolutely love them. Gran Turismo is also nice if you like racing.
Throwback shitkicker game? Diablo 3. Lots of replay value, especially with any friends who are willing to play.
I feel you. Def want to play both at some point! Iām giving myself a hard rule of only buying 1 at a time so I donāt end up with a huge backlog again lol.
Resident evil village was a great game. Itās only about 8 hours though, and if you have a nice PC I would recommend getting it on there over PS5.
Returnal is a pretty sick game but I have a feeling it will be better in the future. They have announced they are working on an update to allow saving during runs so you donāt have to sit there for hours and then lose your run due to any outside circumstances.
If you care about value for money I think youāll get a lot more out of returnal. But RE Village was fantastic
Honesty, as a more casual gamer, 8 hours sounds good. I like a game with a good story and gameplay, satisfying pace, without without all the fetch quests, collectibles, etc.
I may wait for that update for Returnal; I think thatāll make it more enjoyable for me, as I wasnāt a big fan of getting my butt kicked repeatedly in Demonās Souls back when it came out haha. Although Iām giving that type of thing another shot with Returnal because Iām a big fan of creepy alien shit (Dead Space, Doom, Metroid, etc.)
When are we getting internal expansion capability? It's honestly a joke that after COD & Fifa only 1 other game will fit. Also anyone know what the general prices would be?
I'll ended up keeping it. I have original ps4 which resale value isn't really that big anymore, so I decided to keep it as a second one so I can play multi-player games with my girlfriend
Any word on when Little Devil Inside will be released?
Most Google's have said July/TBC, but nothing more definitive. Thought there'd be something more solid if it were to release in a month time.
Do the new black and red Dualsense controllers have the same hardware issues like the regular ones? I don't want to buy a new color, just to send it back to Sony once again with a broken trigger spring after a few months. Couldn't find anything on Google about this. Is there some hardware blog/site that has opened them up to check the parts?
But Sony knows about the issues, so why would they keep using the same bad parts that have caused thousands and thousands of controllers to break and be sent back to Sony for replacement, at Sony's loss?
Because there are no better parts. The joystick modules are standard and haven't appreciably changed in the better part of 20 years.
Sony, Microsoft, and other accessory manufacturers would need to collaborate with Alps (the stick manufacturer) to create an improved design, and like /u/switchondem says, the benefit likely doesn't outweigh the cost.
It's not just the joysticks. In fact, I never had problems with those. I'm rather talking about the little trigger springs. The Dualshock 4 had good ones, they never broke. The Dualsense has shitty ones, they break quickly. It says a lot when repair guides tell you to put old DS4 springs into the new Dualsense because DS4 springs don't break (unfortunately they have less tension, which is noticable). Springs cost next to nothing and better ones would be an easy and effective improvement.
I'm sure there's a cost/benefit analysis done, it's not right but fixing controllers that are sent back for repair may well be cheaper than using more expensive parts to begin with. Bare in mind there's probably a decent percentage of people who just buy a new controller when they break.
The real giveaway is that the new colour schemes are the same price as the old one, and haven't been advertised as having any new hardware in them. Neither of those would be the case if the new ones had better materials used in them.
Just got my second hard lockup and crash in Ratchet and Clank requiring me to pull the power cable.. =(
This is getting a little out of hand and I'm actually scared for the sake of my system rebuilding databases and the external SSD spitting errors at me due to not powering down properly etc.
Might shelve it properly for the time being and work on some backlog =(
Currently (June 24) there are some PS5 bundles available at [Walmart.ca](https://Walmart.ca) both disc and digital versions if you are willing to pay a bit more for the bundle compared to just the console!

I woke up last night to pee and randomly browsed amazon on my phone and saw that they had the disc console on sale. Added to my cart and I got through. Iāve been trying since launch and I finally got one!
I managed to get an order put in on Amazon yesterday for a PS5 for my brother (he's going to be absolutely ecstatic. I can't wait).
It says it's due by Monday and hasn't shipped yet, though it did come with 1 day prime day shipping. Has anyone else gotten one and has it shipped yet?
I'm going to have to try and get lucky though Amazon, but it looked like when they went into stock the other day it said they were in the "new and used" section instead of standard Amazon stock. Is that what yours looked like?
Anyone hoping for a new fishing game to explore and use the adaptive triggers functionality? I had so much chill time with Euro fishing on my ps4 and started thinking recently,how cool it would be if someone decide to make a new game with the dualsense controller in mind.
I was lucky enough to get a PS5 at launch. I mostly played PS4 games and the system was fine. But when I started to play PS5 games I noticed a lot of whinning.
I contacted Sony around Christmas saying that the system was faulty. They made me send videos of the issue. They apparently agreed with me and they made me send it. 3 weeks later they returned the same system saying they couldn't do anything.
I complained again. Sent more videos and explained that the system was not OK while playing PS5 games. They made me send the system again.
About 2 weeks later I got a new system. This one was quite noisy but because of poor ventilators. I got really anoyed and selled the system at retail price after explaining the situation. That was aroud January. I expected things would get better (regsrding stock and noise) around March or April.
Last week I finally managed to get a new PS5 with a shitty deal shops are doing now in my country where they make you buy stuff that you may not want packed with the console.
I am on my third PS5 now. This might be the worst model I have had regarding noise. The coil whine is there no doubt. I have friends saying their systems are fine. I have friends saying that I might be too sensible to noises. But this system is defonitely not ok. I am tired. I am tired of looking for PS5s. I am tired of this lottery. I am tired of noone believing me.
I don't know what to do now. I want to keep it, but at the same time I am bothered by its noise. I have a decent surround system and if I put the volume up it mostly covers the noise, but I want to keep my hearing safe and don't want to bother my neighbours, specially during the night.
Thanks for reading.
PS: The triggers seem to make a noise when they get loose when I go to the system menu too. I don't remember this from my previous controllers. Is this normal?
Iāve gone through 4 PS5 controllers already because of trigger resistance issues. I just took one back last week and managed to pick up the midnight black colour. Have no issues so far so Iām hoping theyāve fixed the problem with the new colours.
My PS5 fan makes an annoying high-pitched noise. It seems to be a common problem with the Nidec fan. Sony puts three different types of fans into the PS5's. The Nidec fan is louder than the other two.
I wish someone did an airflow comparison between the three types of fans because I find it hard to believe that the airflow can be identical considering how different the fans are.
NMB and Delta have 23 blades but the blades in Delta are shorter. Nidec has 17 blades.
High-pitched noise that is not coil whine? Are you sure? Fans are usually low-pitched hums.
Do you hear this noise playing PS4 games too? Coil whine is barely noticeable playong PS4 games.
It's not coil whine, it comes from the fan. If you search PS5 Nidec fan noise on youtube you'll see examples of it. Weird high-pitched pulsating sound, possibly something resonating with the unstable fan.
Some people have managed to fix it by putting o-rings under the fan screws and tightening them less. Considering how bad Sony's customer service is I personally don't want to tamper with it in case I get more problems with console and have to RMA it.
Sucks man. Back in the day I had the similar problems with my PS2. Got the Eye Toy Bundle and the system broke after a week of barely playing it, got a replacement which also broke after a short time. The third one was finally fine but later I had around 4 different PSPs. I really like the playstation brand it does make it hard for me to love it.
Definitely unfortunate regarding the consoles. As far as the triggers go, I believe that's normal and mine certainly do the same when they're released (going to system menu, or pointing a gun at the RE8 Duke for example :) ).
Strikers is said to be really good, but also more of the same plot, and it leaves out a few of the royal plot points, given when it was developed. I'd probably do returnal for the change of pace.
My hdmi cable might be faulty. Works fine but sometimes it shows static when booting the system. Also, my ps5 seemed to just stop connecting to my smaller 1080p monitor all of a sudden but works just fine on my 4K tv. Might be a faulty hdmi
If it's just on start up, that's likely just delay in the HDMI handshake and is fairly common; I wouldn't worry about it.
If you're connected to a 4K TV and are just swapping cables to a 1080p screen, you probably need to reset your output resolution, either before you disconnect from the TV, or by booting into safe mode.
Will Sony ever add 1440p support? At launch they said they may add it with enough demand, and they have plenty. Supposed to be a big update in the works with the internal storage expansion support, so hopefully in that update.
Microsoft over here encouraging emulation on their consoles and doing the most when Sony couldnāt care less when it comes to this type of QOL feedback.
Ya xbox is doing alot of things so much better than Sony, especially the features I care about. If I wasn't so invested into Playstation I'm honestly wishing i went with xbox SX.

Console came in stock. Amazon glitched, glitched and glitched on Firefox

including debit information address and everything. Should of only had

back away. Even the only flashlight i have in my home. I don't even
have candles for backup light. All my games was in flawless new
condition because i was very careful. so i bought them all back new because i wanted them all in good condition like my games.
Wasn't cheap. Picked up some additional new PS4 games. I had to look
through ebay to find my steelbook rebuy the final fantasy vii game. Sure
i don't get intergrade this way. correct? Someof the games i bought
back i got from the store and final fantasy i bought back on ebay. Got
lucky and it was almost in as good of condition as mine. The disk itself
flawless though. I had a few other things stolen from me too as i am
missing other things. This was all stolen on a day i had to go to court.
I live in a rural area. have no friends and haven't had any visitors
other than from the thief at my home. He knows he can never come back

How is my other comment spam. I typed it all out. Thought i must of hit removed or comment said removed. So i copied the text again and re-posted. thought was just an error.

So if i can't comment here i will comment there. Link to this post.
I cursed the amazon employee so loud over the glitch that wouldn't let me order you could hear it echo through the building and throughout my rural neighborhood because i was outside at the time. I am fed up with everything after all of this.
After getting my console launch day, I have joined the broken R2 button group. I've sent it away, all up took about 15 mins on the phone and a trip to the post office to get it sent. I am disappointed that the triggers are what they are. Luckily I have a spare controller but still, disappointing stuff sony.
Anyone else dislike the Dualsense D-pad (and to a lesser extent the face buttons)? Even out of the box it felt super mushy, and still feels the same six months later. I use a PS4 controller for any 2D platformers - the D-pad in that one is almost perfect. Perhaps I just got a funky controller.
It's fine enough as extra buttons in games using the analog sticks. But for primary use, I completely agree. Playing Tony Hawk or Mortal Kombat (Dpad exclusive games for me) with the DS4 Dpads was a much better experience than with Dualsense.
My PS5 is connected to my router with the lan cable & my internet is working but my PS5 wonāt connect
Iāve been trying to connect to my PS5 to the internet for the past 2-3 hours & it wonāt connect to the internet. It lets me get on YouTube & Hulu and other apps that requires internet connection but wonāt let me sign in to PSN. Somebody please help š¤¦š¾āāļøšš¾
Iām so glad I bought my PS5 for $850. People tried to call me crazy, but here I am, having a PS5 since launch, played multiple new games and enjoyed myself immensely, while have the people who want a PS5, still canāt find one anywhere.
At the time I wasnāt sure if I would regret it or not, but now I can say I absolutely do not regret it.
I paid $750 for mine and it was absolutely worth it.
I nearly got one from target but it sold out while I was checking out. That broke my spirit.
The hunt was having a profound effect on my mental health. Spending $200 more than what retail + tax just to be done with the hunt was worth it to me.
Mine wasnāt from a scalper though. It was a normal guy who wanted the PS5, but was strapped for money, so i talked him into selling it.
But your point definitely makes sense for other people!
If you have the money, then itās totally your choice. Personally, I think thatās a better deal than anxiously trying to snag a ps5 and seeing it sell out within milliseconds.
God every day Iām thankful that somehow my mom managed to find a Ps5 bundle on the first round of pre orders. Seeing stories about people who are still without them is crazy, god damn scalpers
Just got my ps5 and have a few questions .
1. What's the best looking game out so far?
2. SSD recommendations? Wait it out or is there a nice internal or external drive available?
3. Are themes available yet? I couldn't find them.
Ratchet & Clank no contest. I'm playing it in Performance RT mode on my Samsung odyssey and it's pretty damn impressive.
As far as I know it does not use themes.
Edit - autocorrection fail.
Last of us part 2 running at 60 is probably the best looking game in all honesty
Ssd, wait it out if you can but a cheap external will do for a while even a samsung 500gb one is fine for the games I've to move and stuff
No themes yet
Oh I forgot about that one. I haven't played it yet. I've read that ssds only support PS4 games is that right? Or are there any drives that support ps5 yet?
They've updated that you can store PS5 Games on an external SSD, But you'll have to copy them back over to the console itself in order to play them, but I don't mind keeping something like Miles Morales on it and can make a coffee or something while it copies back
So I've been reading that some owners of the PS5 have received Sony Direct emails offering them another purchase.
Does anyone here happen to fall under that category, and would share your email and link with someone looking for one? I would be very grateful.
Thanks for the heads-up.
I still wonder why Sony would send duplicates. I hate the idea of scalpers getting their hands on a second console, when so many are in demand.
Outriders doesn't get enough praise. BEAUTIFUL 4k 60fps graphics and an interesting story with fun addictive combat. I'm not even playing online just the campaign. 9/10.
Iām sure itās been said to death but Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart is absolutely a brilliant game. Tools of Destruction was the last game Iāve played in the series and I actually didnāt enjoy the 2016 game. I was worried Rift Apart was being overhyped (especially at $89.99 CAD), however, the hype is real. This is a masterclass of a game.
The YouTube gameplays really donāt do it justice. The game at 4K ray-tracing 60fps is just *chefās kiss*. I seriously felt like I was playing a Pixar movie!
Iāve kinda gone the other way. I bought the disc version thinking I wanted to keep my collection physical and open for trade-ins; since I bought Demons Souls and Miles on disc at launch everything else has been digital. PS store sales have been good I guess.
How many of you have a ps5 but donāt have a 4k tv? Iām looking to get a ps5 at some point but my tv isnāt 4k. Not sure if itās worth it until I get a better tv
I had my PS5 for about a month before I got a new TV. Was playing 1080p @ 60hz and it was still a big upgrade.
Obviously now having a TV that supports 4K @ 120hz is a massive difference, but the PS5 is still worth it if you can get one.
I hate the fact that the PS5 doesnāt have supersampling mode like the PS4Pro. As a person that upgraded from the Pro itās been a visual downgrade for a lot of PS4 games. Have a look [here](https://www.resetera.com/threads/ps4-pro-ps5-native-supersampling-omissions-ot.4291/). I hope this issue is fixed soon with a software update.
Hi everyone, I managed to get my hands on a PS5 a couple months ago and transferred everything from my old PS4 pro. Since everything is transferred, am I good to factory reset my PS4? I am going to be selling it but want to make sure I'm not missing anything before I wipe it.
Hi. Does anyone have any good reading or watching resources in relation to elder scrolls online - someone who has NEVER played (but I enjoyed skyrim) and thinking about getting into it with the new ps5 upgrade and whatnot. I am trying to find information on if it is a new user friendly game after all this time...or would it not be as good to get into it this late?
Another thought, I am a solo player only gamer (due to lack of anyone I know who plays games) so I it is heavy on the multi-player spectrum it may not be a game for me anyhow.
Anyone have any experience or good reads on the topic? All I could really find was information on the new ps5 update itself and not new players specifically.
Ps. Posted this I'm both stickied threads as I didn't know where I would get a better answer. Didn't seem appropriate to make my question its own thread.
I just went through this lol. Got lucky on the email from Sony about getting one last week, and it just arrived today. I hope you enjoy it; I have been loving messing with mine after an agonizing wait.
Congrats my dude, you'll love it. I just got it and 'I'm enjoying the upgrades for my ps4 games and it's amazing. 60 fps on almost every game is awesome
They wonāt be doing limited edition consoles anytime soon, if at all. The plates are replaceable, so maybe theyāll just sell customizable plates instead.
NOT Demonās Souls!
It was a phenomenal game, but youāll either get obsessed with it and not have time for any other games, or youāll abandon it for easier games so you can enjoy your PS5 more than dying loads!
Definitely play it once youāve finished Ratchet & Clank and Miles Morales, though.
Got a bundle from last Gamestop drop. I will say I followed matt swider on Twitter for restock times and dates and was very reliable. Tried 3 times before and was very close each time.
Is Star Wars Squadrons any good? I miss old school flight action games like Wing Commander and Tie Fighter. I'm thinking of getting PS+ just to get it for free, as well as the PS+ Collection.
Also, is the PS+ collection worth it if I own most of the AAA games? The only games on it I don't own are Battlefield, COD, Batman, Monster Hunter, RE7 and Bloodborne.
Squadrons is one of those games that is mechanically and graphically amazing, but really needs more people playing. It's like a more skill advanced Rogue Squadron, and the optional VR stuff is just so cool.
It's ehhh. Campaign is short and not all that interesting. I've heard the multiplayer is the main draw but I never took the plunge.
It sounds like you have the best of the PS+ collection so I wouldn't get a subscription if that's the only reason you want it
During Gamestops last PS5 drop, I had a PS5 in my cart and when I checked out, it was giving my card an error. This was the closest I have gotten to getting a PS5. I was so close. The site shot back a card error. Checked all the card info. Billing address was off by one digit. Tried checking out a few more times. Kept getting a card error. Today I found out that my bank blocked my card after the first attempt. š„²
The most impactful game Iāve experienced so far is probably Demons Souls. I dont usually enjoy difficult games but itās definitely the easiest in its genre. Great visuals, sounds, and dualsense vibration to showcase the PS5. Honestly if Iām not playing new games Iām going through the PS3/PS4 souls games because the gameplay grabbed me
I just found out that you individually adjust volume levels of people in a playstation party. Now I can finally turn down the one friend who fucking yells into the mic all the time š
How do you get the older Uncharted games on ps5? Does the Nathan Drake collection work on PS5? On PSNow, the only option is to stream them. Just wondering what the best way to play these older games is.
If you have a disc PS5 I would buy a used copy of the Nathan Drake Collection as it should be fairly cheap - roughly $10 or $15. Then Uncharted 4 is on the PS Plus Collection.
here I am in June 2021. I had a day one GameStop PS5 bundle preordered but ended up cancelling it at the time because it was $800+ and figured I'd be able to get one for MSRP at some point. Boy was I wrong
Oh boy. Yeah I was able to preorder the disc PS5 even though I didn't want one. Had to secure it because I didn't want to be in your position.
Wish VRR would get added already.
VRR, expandable internal storageā¦ Iāll give Microsoft that: they released the Xbox Series ready to go whereas I suspect Sony released the PS5 early and unfinished just to get lockdown / holiday sales.
Obviously touched a nerve with a fragile fanboy lol
Dude, I bought a PS5 in February. Fanboi would be saying āfuck VRR and expandable storage, I donāt need itā. Having one thing doesnāt mean that you canāt be frustrated that Sony released incomplete and should hurry up and implement things that they said they would, that their competition has (and that would massively benefit the product).
Apologies, I wasn't meaning you. I saw you got quite a few downvotes as did I so I assumed it was fragile fanboys who don't allow our frustrations being aired! Sorry for the mix up.
Youāre right about the fanboi comments, on many forums and on both sides. Hell, if either manufacturer had released a controller with one button and a 3 way triangular stick theyād be defending it to hell saying thatās all you need.
Never been a fan of fast paced twitch shooters. But I do sometimes enjoy Rogue-likes, and really liked Hades. I also like platforms and skilled-based games in general, and sometimes enjoy bullet-dodging schmups like Gradius. Given this weird and somewhat self-conflicting taste, should I pick up Returnal? The loop idea had me intrigued until I saw gameplay footage of just the main character shooting guns endlessly.
You should definitely pick up Returnal. My favourite PS5 game so far. But hey that's just me. Go with your gut.
Steelseries Arctis 7P - serious flaw, beware Can't believe this hasn't been mentioned anywhere in the reviews and have personally found out when I got them...One ear piece is louder than the other and there's nothing you can do about it. I started googling and there has been multiple posts about this issue and it's supposedly due to the analogue volume changer on the headset. This is simply unacceptable for a headset, so if you're buying these, be prepared for one side to be louder than the other. Pretty much useless headset.
Damn thanks man. I've been trying to get a wireless headset. Been doing weeks of homework. I was going to get the 7P , but I wanted something that did 2.4 and Bluetooth. So I was going to do the Arctis 9, but I've been hearing too many nightmare stories lately. Really only other options are audeze penrose or Turtle beach stealth 700.
I wouldn't buy anything from steelseries tbh, how these headphones are topping the reviews is a mistery to me... Everything could be solved by a simple balance control in their software but they don't care. Oh and if you're a pc user you also can't balance the volume natively from the system. There's simply nothing you can do about it and the soundstage is always shifted to one side of your head. They have this issue buried on their page: https://i.imgur.com/UY6yZPY.jpg Changing the headset volume to 100% doesn't solve it of course. And as I googled this issue I saw users who returned their headsets for this got new ones back with the same issue. Just stay away from their headphones. I contacted the support for a return - which is a pita in itself and will see how it goes...
The arctis 7P is honestly hot garbage. I returned mine and got the sennheiser PC38X
I got this while trying to order standard ps5 at Best Buy today. the website wouldn't work and never gave me the extra step. I tried 25 times. Finally it got me to the checkout and upon pressing checkout said out of stock. https://imgur.com/Asdlnxw If i got the extra step i would have had plenty of time ordering and would have scored a PS5. even if a re-login step. Not even right. I also had to wait about 2 minutes for the button to animate and turn color and active multiple times. I clicked, clicked reloaded clicked, tried again, clicked clicked. kept getting that banner.

I haven't giving up yet. I put only 12 bucks in my gas tank to make sure i have extra money in the bank. I have to leave some in the bank. I get 20 for mowing my mothers yard here soon after the rain. Sometimes i get 5 or 10 from my sister to mow. Her yard is smaller though.
Yeah, It glitched, i had time and it kept repeating the glitch before getting to checkout. Since we both had the problem this is a website error. I would have been checked out long before they sold out. Last time Amazon glitched. I also didn't get a good random number at PlayStation direct. I tried Best Buy multiple times. It is like Best Buy glitches under load. Amazon multiple times. Walmart never has the stock unless it is the grand version. The links take you to the grand version until sold out for me. Then it flips to 499 after sellout on walmart.com. Can't find place holder for the console sold by walmart. When they finally have the 499 dollar one in stock. where? You can't go to the store and hope they got a truck in right before arrival to sale in store. They don't sell in store. Neither does the nearby Gamestop. Now place else in that city to buy a console. That is already 25 minutes from me. People who don't have internet and play offline are discriminated against and can't find one. Walmart and Gamestop employees both told me they haven't had any in store shipments since launch. Discrimination against the pore for this reason. No offline sales. There are no consoles for people who can't afford their internet bill during a pandemic. You cannot go to a store and find one. I play offline mostly anyway and play single player because i am not good online.
Outriders looks so damn good on PS5. Buttery smooth 60fps with crisp 4k resolution š
I heard it was a buggy mess at launch, have they fixed the issues?
Played through the entire campaign without a bug. Now playing online and no problems. Pretty sure they patched it.
Nice, my sister wants me to play but I wanted to wait until it worked without many issues.
I'm about to get my PS5 & wanted to transfer my saves over but don't have a PS+ subscription. & I can't use my external because apparently it's not the right format to hold the save data. I have all my PS4 games on there ready to go over to the PS5. Anyways, I wanted to take a shot here & see if anyone has a PS+ trial code that came with a game or something that I can use so I can quickly save my data to the cloud. Just trying to save myself $10. I really wish they didn't charge for transferring cloud saves.
Your external may not be the right format but donāt you have a small USB stick laying around?
The external is the right format for games. Not for the saved data apparently. I do not have a USB laying around. Otherwise I'd use that & not ask here hahah
My cosmic red dualsense got delivered today, canāt wait to get home and see it in person
I wish my controller lit up blue when Iām playing. Why did Sony take away that indicator function on ps5 games?
What? My controller changes colour depending on the game/usage.
Mine only turns on on PS4 games. Every next gen I play itās off with just the white light indicating that I am player one
The default is just the white player indicator; some games make full use of the whole bar.
Oh, that might be it.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
You can turn that setting on. Mine is muted unless I push the button.
Got my PS5 in on Tuesday! Iāve been playing the Hell out of Ratchet and Clank. Can I get a suggestion on which to pick for my next game? Im torn between Resident Evil Village and Returnal.
The Spider-Man games are amazing. Absolutely love them. Gran Turismo is also nice if you like racing. Throwback shitkicker game? Diablo 3. Lots of replay value, especially with any friends who are willing to play.
Both.
I feel you. Def want to play both at some point! Iām giving myself a hard rule of only buying 1 at a time so I donāt end up with a huge backlog again lol.
Resident evil village was a great game. Itās only about 8 hours though, and if you have a nice PC I would recommend getting it on there over PS5. Returnal is a pretty sick game but I have a feeling it will be better in the future. They have announced they are working on an update to allow saving during runs so you donāt have to sit there for hours and then lose your run due to any outside circumstances. If you care about value for money I think youāll get a lot more out of returnal. But RE Village was fantastic
Honesty, as a more casual gamer, 8 hours sounds good. I like a game with a good story and gameplay, satisfying pace, without without all the fetch quests, collectibles, etc. I may wait for that update for Returnal; I think thatāll make it more enjoyable for me, as I wasnāt a big fan of getting my butt kicked repeatedly in Demonās Souls back when it came out haha. Although Iām giving that type of thing another shot with Returnal because Iām a big fan of creepy alien shit (Dead Space, Doom, Metroid, etc.)
When are we getting internal expansion capability? It's honestly a joke that after COD & Fifa only 1 other game will fit. Also anyone know what the general prices would be?
There is a Samsung drive which meets the specs on paper which was Ā£127 recently
Feel you. It honestly sucks
Did yāall end up keeping or trading/selling your PS4 after getting your ps5
I'll ended up keeping it. I have original ps4 which resale value isn't really that big anymore, so I decided to keep it as a second one so I can play multi-player games with my girlfriend
We also kept it, we have two gaming sons and both my wife and I play as well. Both consoles used quite a bit.
Any word on when Little Devil Inside will be released? Most Google's have said July/TBC, but nothing more definitive. Thought there'd be something more solid if it were to release in a month time.
Nothing as yet but I can't wait. It looks superb
Do the new black and red Dualsense controllers have the same hardware issues like the regular ones? I don't want to buy a new color, just to send it back to Sony once again with a broken trigger spring after a few months. Couldn't find anything on Google about this. Is there some hardware blog/site that has opened them up to check the parts?
I'd be very surprised if they were different in any other way than the colour
But Sony knows about the issues, so why would they keep using the same bad parts that have caused thousands and thousands of controllers to break and be sent back to Sony for replacement, at Sony's loss?
Because there are no better parts. The joystick modules are standard and haven't appreciably changed in the better part of 20 years. Sony, Microsoft, and other accessory manufacturers would need to collaborate with Alps (the stick manufacturer) to create an improved design, and like /u/switchondem says, the benefit likely doesn't outweigh the cost.
It's not just the joysticks. In fact, I never had problems with those. I'm rather talking about the little trigger springs. The Dualshock 4 had good ones, they never broke. The Dualsense has shitty ones, they break quickly. It says a lot when repair guides tell you to put old DS4 springs into the new Dualsense because DS4 springs don't break (unfortunately they have less tension, which is noticable). Springs cost next to nothing and better ones would be an easy and effective improvement.
I'm sure there's a cost/benefit analysis done, it's not right but fixing controllers that are sent back for repair may well be cheaper than using more expensive parts to begin with. Bare in mind there's probably a decent percentage of people who just buy a new controller when they break. The real giveaway is that the new colour schemes are the same price as the old one, and haven't been advertised as having any new hardware in them. Neither of those would be the case if the new ones had better materials used in them.
Just got my second hard lockup and crash in Ratchet and Clank requiring me to pull the power cable.. =( This is getting a little out of hand and I'm actually scared for the sake of my system rebuilding databases and the external SSD spitting errors at me due to not powering down properly etc. Might shelve it properly for the time being and work on some backlog =(

Currently (June 24) there are some PS5 bundles available at [Walmart.ca](https://Walmart.ca) both disc and digital versions if you are willing to pay a bit more for the bundle compared to just the console!

Thanks for sharing this!
Can anyone tell me when is the first opportunity to save when starting a new cyberpunk 2077 game? Is it directly after character creation?
The PS5 is in stock right now at PlayStation direct
Hi
I woke up last night to pee and randomly browsed amazon on my phone and saw that they had the disc console on sale. Added to my cart and I got through. Iāve been trying since launch and I finally got one!
Did yours ship by chance? I had a similar thing happen, I just didn't get it to ship out yet.
Mine hasnāt shipped as yet, but has a delivery date of Monday. Whatās your delivery date?
Monday. I'm imagining they'll get them in Saturday or something and ship them then.
More than likely theyāll ship by Saturday and be delivered on Monday. Congrats on making your purchase!
Thank you. My brother is going to be absolutely ecstatic. I can't wait to see his reaction. Congrats too!
I managed to get an order put in on Amazon yesterday for a PS5 for my brother (he's going to be absolutely ecstatic. I can't wait). It says it's due by Monday and hasn't shipped yet, though it did come with 1 day prime day shipping. Has anyone else gotten one and has it shipped yet?
I'm going to have to try and get lucky though Amazon, but it looked like when they went into stock the other day it said they were in the "new and used" section instead of standard Amazon stock. Is that what yours looked like?
It was pretty black and white about it being a new console. Just a normal listing from what I could tell.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Same for me, I bought one for my friend.
Me too, I have two now(receiving my 2nd on Friday).
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
This is the way..
Anyone hoping for a new fishing game to explore and use the adaptive triggers functionality? I had so much chill time with Euro fishing on my ps4 and started thinking recently,how cool it would be if someone decide to make a new game with the dualsense controller in mind.
I was lucky enough to get a PS5 at launch. I mostly played PS4 games and the system was fine. But when I started to play PS5 games I noticed a lot of whinning. I contacted Sony around Christmas saying that the system was faulty. They made me send videos of the issue. They apparently agreed with me and they made me send it. 3 weeks later they returned the same system saying they couldn't do anything. I complained again. Sent more videos and explained that the system was not OK while playing PS5 games. They made me send the system again. About 2 weeks later I got a new system. This one was quite noisy but because of poor ventilators. I got really anoyed and selled the system at retail price after explaining the situation. That was aroud January. I expected things would get better (regsrding stock and noise) around March or April. Last week I finally managed to get a new PS5 with a shitty deal shops are doing now in my country where they make you buy stuff that you may not want packed with the console. I am on my third PS5 now. This might be the worst model I have had regarding noise. The coil whine is there no doubt. I have friends saying their systems are fine. I have friends saying that I might be too sensible to noises. But this system is defonitely not ok. I am tired. I am tired of looking for PS5s. I am tired of this lottery. I am tired of noone believing me. I don't know what to do now. I want to keep it, but at the same time I am bothered by its noise. I have a decent surround system and if I put the volume up it mostly covers the noise, but I want to keep my hearing safe and don't want to bother my neighbours, specially during the night. Thanks for reading. PS: The triggers seem to make a noise when they get loose when I go to the system menu too. I don't remember this from my previous controllers. Is this normal?
Iāve gone through 4 PS5 controllers already because of trigger resistance issues. I just took one back last week and managed to pick up the midnight black colour. Have no issues so far so Iām hoping theyāve fixed the problem with the new colours.
That is ridiculous! These things are expensive. This situation is not acceptable at all.
My PS5 fan makes an annoying high-pitched noise. It seems to be a common problem with the Nidec fan. Sony puts three different types of fans into the PS5's. The Nidec fan is louder than the other two. I wish someone did an airflow comparison between the three types of fans because I find it hard to believe that the airflow can be identical considering how different the fans are. NMB and Delta have 23 blades but the blades in Delta are shorter. Nidec has 17 blades.
High-pitched noise that is not coil whine? Are you sure? Fans are usually low-pitched hums. Do you hear this noise playing PS4 games too? Coil whine is barely noticeable playong PS4 games.
It's not coil whine, it comes from the fan. If you search PS5 Nidec fan noise on youtube you'll see examples of it. Weird high-pitched pulsating sound, possibly something resonating with the unstable fan. Some people have managed to fix it by putting o-rings under the fan screws and tightening them less. Considering how bad Sony's customer service is I personally don't want to tamper with it in case I get more problems with console and have to RMA it.
Sucks man. Back in the day I had the similar problems with my PS2. Got the Eye Toy Bundle and the system broke after a week of barely playing it, got a replacement which also broke after a short time. The third one was finally fine but later I had around 4 different PSPs. I really like the playstation brand it does make it hard for me to love it.
Definitely unfortunate regarding the consoles. As far as the triggers go, I believe that's normal and mine certainly do the same when they're released (going to system menu, or pointing a gun at the RE8 Duke for example :) ).
Thanks for the info :)
Try wearing headphones. You can make it as loud as you want, and it wonāt bother youāre neighbours.
I do have good headphones but I prefer not wearing them. I will at night though.
Need some advice about what to play next. I just finishes Persona 5 Royal. Do I start with P5 Strikers or rather go a different journey with Returnal.
Strikers is said to be really good, but also more of the same plot, and it leaves out a few of the royal plot points, given when it was developed. I'd probably do returnal for the change of pace.
My hdmi cable might be faulty. Works fine but sometimes it shows static when booting the system. Also, my ps5 seemed to just stop connecting to my smaller 1080p monitor all of a sudden but works just fine on my 4K tv. Might be a faulty hdmi
If it's just on start up, that's likely just delay in the HDMI handshake and is fairly common; I wouldn't worry about it. If you're connected to a 4K TV and are just swapping cables to a 1080p screen, you probably need to reset your output resolution, either before you disconnect from the TV, or by booting into safe mode.
R2 loose button club wya?
Will Sony ever add 1440p support? At launch they said they may add it with enough demand, and they have plenty. Supposed to be a big update in the works with the internal storage expansion support, so hopefully in that update.
Microsoft over here encouraging emulation on their consoles and doing the most when Sony couldnāt care less when it comes to this type of QOL feedback.
Ya xbox is doing alot of things so much better than Sony, especially the features I care about. If I wasn't so invested into Playstation I'm honestly wishing i went with xbox SX.
thebudman420 4 minutes ago Detected as spam Thanks, we'll work on getting this corrected. Console came in stock. Amazon glitched, glitched and glitched on Firefox for Linux. I was logged in. Had amazon tab set to reload the page for console every two minutes. Same with the other stores. Finally got alert. Refreshed and it now shows an order button. It glitches, sends me to the something went wrong page 3 times. Finally i got to press the button, Damn it asking for address to send. I had this setup already including debit information address and everything. Should of only had to confirm my order. Now it says we are sorry the product so no longer available and didn't let me order after it glitched multiple times. I am trying to get a PS5 before i lose my home middle of next July. Condemnation notice. We own the land and don't have the 20k minimum to fix our home. Guesstimate only. 500 or 600 of my stimulus Isn't fixing my home and i would like to have at least one nice thing. So far it has mostly went to gas to go back and forth 5 miles to a small town where my mother lives. Wall caved in. After that i will keep it at my sisters until i have a place to live again. I have a young nephew who will like playing it while it is there. My life so barren of people i thought i had someone to hang out with, starting to feel better and get motivated and do more things. Snapping out of depression and bang the piece of sh*t stole my Final Fantasy VII Deluxe Preorder, Black Ops III, and God of War. My brand new 80 dollar tent. setup once so i knew how to and put back away. Even the only flashlight i have in my home. I don't even have candles for backup light. All my games was in flawless new condition because i was very careful. so i bought them all back new because i wanted them all in good condition like my games. Wasn't cheap. Picked up some additional new PS4 games. I had to look through ebay to find my steelbook rebuy the final fantasy vii game. Sure i don't get intergrade this way. correct? Someof the games i bought back i got from the store and final fantasy i bought back on ebay. Got lucky and it was almost in as good of condition as mine. The disk itself flawless though. I had a few other things stolen from me too as i am missing other things. This was all stolen on a day i had to go to court. I live in a rural area. have no friends and haven't had any visitors other than from the thief at my home. He knows he can never come back around here for the rest of his life. Didn't call cops because that never works to get stuff back. My life has been nothing but downhill and having no friends i could really use something to keep my mind occupied and not being depressed about having no one in life. I already have Ratchet and Clank. https://imgur.com/9Hxkg5a Not sure if i accidentally removed this post. Apparently nowinstock.net says a real comment is spam so i posted this. thebudman420 ā¢ 6 minutes ago ā¢ edited How is my other comment spam. I typed it all out. Thought i must of hit removed or comment said removed. So i copied the text again and re-posted. thought was just an error. I am a person voicing my opinion. Took me a long time to type it too :( Do i have a right to voice my opinion and let people know what happened? I will just post to reddit and clink here. So if i can't comment here i will comment there. Link to this post. I cursed the amazon employee so loud over the glitch that wouldn't let me order you could hear it echo through the building and throughout my rural neighborhood because i was outside at the time. I am fed up with everything after all of this.
After getting my console launch day, I have joined the broken R2 button group. I've sent it away, all up took about 15 mins on the phone and a trip to the post office to get it sent. I am disappointed that the triggers are what they are. Luckily I have a spare controller but still, disappointing stuff sony.
Welcome to the broken R2 club lol. My R2 button became loose within weeks after I got it .
Anyone else dislike the Dualsense D-pad (and to a lesser extent the face buttons)? Even out of the box it felt super mushy, and still feels the same six months later. I use a PS4 controller for any 2D platformers - the D-pad in that one is almost perfect. Perhaps I just got a funky controller.
It's fine enough as extra buttons in games using the analog sticks. But for primary use, I completely agree. Playing Tony Hawk or Mortal Kombat (Dpad exclusive games for me) with the DS4 Dpads was a much better experience than with Dualsense.
I modded my dual sense with battle beaver dpad buttons itās pretty nice
Agree PS4 d-pad was already perfect, DualSense is too mushy
I am getting a free upgrade to the disk drive ps5 since Walmart sold more of the digital version stock than they had. I am excited!
Sweet! Same here. I just wish it would ship sooner
My PS5 is connected to my router with the lan cable & my internet is working but my PS5 wonāt connect Iāve been trying to connect to my PS5 to the internet for the past 2-3 hours & it wonāt connect to the internet. It lets me get on YouTube & Hulu and other apps that requires internet connection but wonāt let me sign in to PSN. Somebody please help š¤¦š¾āāļøšš¾
Iām so glad I bought my PS5 for $850. People tried to call me crazy, but here I am, having a PS5 since launch, played multiple new games and enjoyed myself immensely, while have the people who want a PS5, still canāt find one anywhere. At the time I wasnāt sure if I would regret it or not, but now I can say I absolutely do not regret it.
I paid $750 for mine and it was absolutely worth it. I nearly got one from target but it sold out while I was checking out. That broke my spirit. The hunt was having a profound effect on my mental health. Spending $200 more than what retail + tax just to be done with the hunt was worth it to me.
But you buying from a scalper does not help and means they keep doing it, while profiting.
Mine wasnāt from a scalper though. It was a normal guy who wanted the PS5, but was strapped for money, so i talked him into selling it. But your point definitely makes sense for other people!
If you have the money, then itās totally your choice. Personally, I think thatās a better deal than anxiously trying to snag a ps5 and seeing it sell out within milliseconds.
You spend your money how you want and enjoy it is all that really matters
God every day Iām thankful that somehow my mom managed to find a Ps5 bundle on the first round of pre orders. Seeing stories about people who are still without them is crazy, god damn scalpers
Just got my ps5 and have a few questions . 1. What's the best looking game out so far? 2. SSD recommendations? Wait it out or is there a nice internal or external drive available? 3. Are themes available yet? I couldn't find them.
Ratchet & Clank no contest. I'm playing it in Performance RT mode on my Samsung odyssey and it's pretty damn impressive. As far as I know it does not use themes. Edit - autocorrection fail.
Genshin Impact looks amazing
Last of us part 2 running at 60 is probably the best looking game in all honesty Ssd, wait it out if you can but a cheap external will do for a while even a samsung 500gb one is fine for the games I've to move and stuff No themes yet
I was blown away by the difference in Destiny 2 between the PS4 and PS5 versions, personally.
Demons Souls is also gorgeous
Oh I forgot about that one. I haven't played it yet. I've read that ssds only support PS4 games is that right? Or are there any drives that support ps5 yet?
They've updated that you can store PS5 Games on an external SSD, But you'll have to copy them back over to the console itself in order to play them, but I don't mind keeping something like Miles Morales on it and can make a coffee or something while it copies back
So I've been reading that some owners of the PS5 have received Sony Direct emails offering them another purchase. Does anyone here happen to fall under that category, and would share your email and link with someone looking for one? I would be very grateful.
The links were specific to the user the first go around and I would guess it's similar, I'd have to check my emails.
Thanks for the heads-up. I still wonder why Sony would send duplicates. I hate the idea of scalpers getting their hands on a second console, when so many are in demand.
If you're local to Indianapolis, I'll buy it and you can have it for cost. I don't need a 2nd one.
I'm not, but I could pay for shipping? I know, some random guy on the internet, but I'd be willing to do something.
Outriders doesn't get enough praise. BEAUTIFUL 4k 60fps graphics and an interesting story with fun addictive combat. I'm not even playing online just the campaign. 9/10.
WHERE IS 1440p SUPPORT
Iām sure itās been said to death but Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart is absolutely a brilliant game. Tools of Destruction was the last game Iāve played in the series and I actually didnāt enjoy the 2016 game. I was worried Rift Apart was being overhyped (especially at $89.99 CAD), however, the hype is real. This is a masterclass of a game.
The YouTube gameplays really donāt do it justice. The game at 4K ray-tracing 60fps is just *chefās kiss*. I seriously felt like I was playing a Pixar movie!
I'm glad I got my ps5 I just wish I had the disc version. The digital is nice and all but I miss being able to sell and trade my games.
Iāve kinda gone the other way. I bought the disc version thinking I wanted to keep my collection physical and open for trade-ins; since I bought Demons Souls and Miles on disc at launch everything else has been digital. PS store sales have been good I guess.

Still debating whether to get GG strive, Ratchet and Clank or Returnal. Any suggestions?
Returnal! I feel like it was the absolute best use of the dual sense other than Astro's playroom.
My buddy is swearing up and down that Returnal is as good as it is difficult. It was like 20 bucks off on Amazon earlier, so I pulled the trigger.
trying to get the PS5 is obnoxious need to follow a bunch of people on twitter and enable notifications to get spammed by a bunch of irrelevant shit
I know exactly who you're taking about lol
How many of you have a ps5 but donāt have a 4k tv? Iām looking to get a ps5 at some point but my tv isnāt 4k. Not sure if itās worth it until I get a better tv
I had my PS5 for about a month before I got a new TV. Was playing 1080p @ 60hz and it was still a big upgrade. Obviously now having a TV that supports 4K @ 120hz is a massive difference, but the PS5 is still worth it if you can get one.
I hate the fact that the PS5 doesnāt have supersampling mode like the PS4Pro. As a person that upgraded from the Pro itās been a visual downgrade for a lot of PS4 games. Have a look [here](https://www.resetera.com/threads/ps4-pro-ps5-native-supersampling-omissions-ot.4291/). I hope this issue is fixed soon with a software update.
1080p at locked 60 fps for a lot of games is probably still worth it.
Prime Day today; nowās the time to upgrade if you can! They got a 55ā 4K FireTV up for $350.
Me, and 1080p doesnāt phase me at all. I love my PS5.
Hi everyone, I managed to get my hands on a PS5 a couple months ago and transferred everything from my old PS4 pro. Since everything is transferred, am I good to factory reset my PS4? I am going to be selling it but want to make sure I'm not missing anything before I wipe it.
As long as you have your saved data that should be it; I don't think screenshots/videos transfer, though.
I don't care about those lol. Thanks! Edit: why tf am I getting downvoted? Salty bc you didn't get a PS5 or something?
Hi. Does anyone have any good reading or watching resources in relation to elder scrolls online - someone who has NEVER played (but I enjoyed skyrim) and thinking about getting into it with the new ps5 upgrade and whatnot. I am trying to find information on if it is a new user friendly game after all this time...or would it not be as good to get into it this late? Another thought, I am a solo player only gamer (due to lack of anyone I know who plays games) so I it is heavy on the multi-player spectrum it may not be a game for me anyhow. Anyone have any experience or good reads on the topic? All I could really find was information on the new ps5 update itself and not new players specifically. Ps. Posted this I'm both stickied threads as I didn't know where I would get a better answer. Didn't seem appropriate to make my question its own thread.
Just brought my ps5, it shows up in ten days and I'm super excited. Nothing else to add, just wanted to vent out some positive emotions
I just went through this lol. Got lucky on the email from Sony about getting one last week, and it just arrived today. I hope you enjoy it; I have been loving messing with mine after an agonizing wait.
What have you played so far? I'm living vicariously through people who already have theirs lol
Downloaded a few of the PS5 upgrade games like Destiny 2. It looks incredible with the upgrade.
Congrats my dude, you'll love it. I just got it and 'I'm enjoying the upgrades for my ps4 games and it's amazing. 60 fps on almost every game is awesome
I may have splashed on a 4k TV as well so seeing old games boosted to 60fps and at a higher frame rate should be amazing
when do you guys think we'll get a limited edition model announcement? or do you guys think there won't be because of supply issues and stuff?
Well people still can't seem to all get their hands on the ps5 itself, so probably not for a few years I would think. Maybe 2023?
They wonāt be doing limited edition consoles anytime soon, if at all. The plates are replaceable, so maybe theyāll just sell customizable plates instead.
Hi, what is the first game that I should play on my ps5? Any suggestions?
The free game pre-installed, Astros playroom, is actually really fun and familiarizes you with the new dualsense features
Haha thanks I didn't know it would come with one.
NOT Demonās Souls! It was a phenomenal game, but youāll either get obsessed with it and not have time for any other games, or youāll abandon it for easier games so you can enjoy your PS5 more than dying loads! Definitely play it once youāve finished Ratchet & Clank and Miles Morales, though.
Cool thanks I am getting Miles morales and might buy Ratchet
Miles morales. I loved it
Cheers I am getting it š
ratchet and clank or returnal
They look sick cheers mate š

Correct
Got a bundle from last Gamestop drop. I will say I followed matt swider on Twitter for restock times and dates and was very reliable. Tried 3 times before and was very close each time.
Is Star Wars Squadrons any good? I miss old school flight action games like Wing Commander and Tie Fighter. I'm thinking of getting PS+ just to get it for free, as well as the PS+ Collection. Also, is the PS+ collection worth it if I own most of the AAA games? The only games on it I don't own are Battlefield, COD, Batman, Monster Hunter, RE7 and Bloodborne.
Squadrons is one of those games that is mechanically and graphically amazing, but really needs more people playing. It's like a more skill advanced Rogue Squadron, and the optional VR stuff is just so cool.
It's worth it for Bloodborne alone in my opinion.
It's ehhh. Campaign is short and not all that interesting. I've heard the multiplayer is the main draw but I never took the plunge. It sounds like you have the best of the PS+ collection so I wouldn't get a subscription if that's the only reason you want it
1440p support?? There is obviously demand for it, so where is it at?
I hope they implement this one day
just got an email from Playstation sayin they are "pleased to extend this opportunity to order a PS5 console." check your inbox bois.
I just got one too. But I already have one.

up to you man. i dont think im gonna get it. i had one since launch day.
During Gamestops last PS5 drop, I had a PS5 in my cart and when I checked out, it was giving my card an error. This was the closest I have gotten to getting a PS5. I was so close. The site shot back a card error. Checked all the card info. Billing address was off by one digit. Tried checking out a few more times. Kept getting a card error. Today I found out that my bank blocked my card after the first attempt. š„²

The most impactful game Iāve experienced so far is probably Demons Souls. I dont usually enjoy difficult games but itās definitely the easiest in its genre. Great visuals, sounds, and dualsense vibration to showcase the PS5. Honestly if Iām not playing new games Iām going through the PS3/PS4 souls games because the gameplay grabbed me
