Gaming PlayStation 5

Anyone seen these clips of people's controller mics picking them up when they get a trophy? :lol: So many Demon's Souls players screaming in joy after beating a boss.
 
Is it just the remastered version of Spider-Man that folk are experiencing crashes or the MM version only as well?

I’ve only got the MM version only as already platinum the first one.

I haven't had any crashes with MM, but I don't really play it for more than an hour of a time and I haven't been using rest mode.
 
@Alock1 did you use rest mode?

Nope I've been avoiding rest mode, external hard drives and PS4 transfer

There was one time early on it went into rest mode just because I hadn't touched it for a bit but otherwise I've been powering off
 
Nearly finished MM so I'm looking for something new, and I really can't decide between purchasing The Last of Us Part 2 and Ghost Of Tsushima at the prices they've been dropped to today. I played TLoU a few years back so I'll want to play Part 2 at some point, but playing a game as a Samurai is very tempting. Might be a tough one to call, but which would you guys recommend out of the two?

Ghost is 60fps on PS5.

Last of us 2 should get a upgrade in the near future when the multiplayer is out. So if framerate matters to you then play Ghost for now.
 
Last of us 2 is £25 at Argos for those interested.

Horizon Zero Dawn and God of War both £7

Currys has similar offers for anybody struggling to get collection at their nearest store with no delivery
 
Anyone sold their PS4’s yet? Mines currently on eBay and going strong!
 
I've been using Shopto for a long time and never had issues until today. Tried to buy two £35 PSN top-up cards but when I go to the page to get the code I keep getting an error message that says "Sorry, unfortunately Sony cannot respond to this request at the moment. Please try again later."

Never had this before. The codes usually pop-up in the digital items section of your account instantly. I've raised a ticket (I hate this customer service ticket system). Will give them until tomorrow, if I don't get the codes or hear from them I think I'll see if I can get the money back from Paypal.

Cheers for that. Just had a look and it does sound like an upgraded version of TLoU2 for the PS5 is on the way, so I'll wait it out until that is available. Ghost it is!
 
Berba doesn't need to he has a bullet
 
Much more stable without the external drive plugged in but the library still thinks I have those games which is a pain.

Also, I have never got full bandwidth downloads from the PS Store... until just now with Sackboy. Wonder if Sony have unthrottled it or something?
 
I'm pages late, but I've managed to platinum 17 games on PS4/5. Mostly because I actually started paying attention to that early lockdown. I got Sleeping Dogs and Rocket League in 2016 and 2017 respectively, and then all of the other fifteen have come since March this year! Assassins Creed II, Everybody's Gone to the Rapture, Saints Row IV, Star Wars Fallen Order, some point and click game, Gem Smashers, Grim Fandango, Day of the Tentacle, Terminator Salvation, Assassins Creed Odyssey, Horizon Zero Dawn, Wolf Among Us (on PSNow), Final Fantasy XV, Ghost of Tsushima and Astro's Playroom.

There's a few there that came when I got really sad with it, and was actively hunting out easy/quick plats. I do enjoy getting them though, as it gives me a chance to spend a bit more time with games rather than just bashing through the story and dropping them, like I used to do. I don't like multiplayer trophies, and I just gave up on platinumming Shadow of War because I couldn't be bothered grinding at the end.

I am going to try and get the platinum on Spider-Man Miles Morales and Bugsnax, because they're both fun games. Finished the story on Bugsnax, so it's just a case of cleaning up now. Majorly lucked out on some of the captures, where two of the Bugsnax would fight behind me, and I'd just run in and grab whichever was knocked out. There was also a terrifying moment when I accidentally launched an NPC to an unreachable part of the map, but luckily leaving and going back fixed him.

Spider-Man MM is great too. I'm trying not to play it too much because I don't want to finish it too quickly. I've had no issues with it, although I found the final combat challenge ridiculously easy, especially compared to the traversal one which took me several attempts.

So far so good!

How did you manage to throw an NPC off the map :lol:

The lava cave in boiling bay had a couple of tricky captures
 
Black Ops Cold War caused my ps5 to crash. Seems to be a common enough issue going by Twitter feedback.

I'll stick it in a spoiler because it happened during a story mission.

It was the bodybuilder guy, Chumbo or whatever, where he gives you the grappling hook. You're meant to launch your trap over to this far rock where there's a bug, and then grapple it back. At the exact moment I hit R2 to launch the trap, he went flying over there with it.

I was so angry for about five minutes before I thought of running back to the main village

:lol: I just did that, luckily that didn’t happen to me.
 
I just flogged my PS4 for 250 quid online, I’m a bit worried they thought it was the pro :lol: it has 1TB storage and lots of games and controllers, I’m a bit worried though.

Why? How many games and controllers?

Worried about what?

2 controllers and 6 game’s (3 decent new games and 3 older ones), its a 1tb one but I’m worried they thought they were getting the pro? I mean that’s an awful lot of money for a PS4, I obviously never said anything about the pro on the ad, but I hope they aren’t super disappointed when they get it.

PS4 controllers are expensive. Someone I know sold a Slim last week for £150. You got one extra controller and six other games too. Just look at the sold prices on eBay for them. They still are fetching a decent price.

Interesting! Thanks for that I don’t feel like I’m ripping someone off now! It’s a 1tb one too so it’s decent to be fair.
 
How do you guys add a ps plus game to your library when you don't have the console? I want to get Bugsnax in my library before it disappears from PS now but I don't seem to have the option when I log into my Playstation Account on my laptop?

Edit: ignore me I've done it on the app!
 
so I'm wondering if anyone wants to play Monster Hunter World after they got their ps5? I want to try it but I don't know anyone who plays it.
 
Well I’ve just had some unbelievable news. My PS5 that was due to arrive in the 17th of December as just rocked up today. Only slight issue is it’s gone to my friends house (he ordered if for me). I’m going to have make a trip to his at some stage this week but it’s come so much sooner than I expected which is class!!
