Gaming PlayStation 5

Mad that some people can prefer Uncharted to God of War, they aren’t even in the same tier. GOW has the story, combat, world that just blows most games away.

Uncharted > GOW. Uncharted is a far more varied and fun game. If a new Uncharted came out for PS5 it would blow the new GOW away.

Honestly not a chance. The new GOW is one of the most anticipated games currently.
 
God of Wars story wasn't even that good. The relationship and characters of Kratos and Atreus was very good. Everything else was shallow, tropey video game story 101.
 
Xbox fans hating on God of War in here must be the video game equivalent of "I voted remain but here are a million reasons I'm lying and actually voted leave" in the brexit thread.
 
Wow I stand corrected. Have to say though that’s almost thread worthy in itself as it’s pretty shocking to see some of those games at the top. How the hell is the superhero genre so massive!
Not that surprised by any there. Spiderman is quite high i guess, but hes a pretty popular character. Its probably a relatively easy sell.
 
It kind of sums up the lack of imagination in games in the PS4 generation that the top seller was a PS3 game. 5 of that list were remakes.

Don't buy this at all its the population and the game buyers that don't have the imagination Call of duty is an example thrown in your face every year.

There is plenty of unique games they just don't sell in the numbers of the generic crap people eat up (cod/fifa/assassins creed)

When you stop rewarding reskins from activision, ubisoft and EA we might see some change.

To an extent. It’s not like a new GTA wouldn’t have sold in massive numbers though.

Lots of these ‘unique’ games, the likes of which they give away on PS Plus are shit though.

Because they aren't rewarded for going away from the norm it makes no financial sense.

Dreams is ground breaking and pretty incredible for a console game, how many people have bought it or actually given it any time.

Plenty of what are considered critically excellent games which i'd guesstimate about 80% of Playstation owners haven't even heard of/tried.

Whether it’s the consumer or developers to blame doesn’t change the underlying point. The truth is it’s both.
 
Is this thing still impossible to buy? Just checked Amazon and it’s not available there. My son’s birthday is a month away, presume it’s a long shot getting my hands on one by then?

Pretty much. Ridiculous tbh :lol: scalpers definitely won this time around.

There is meant to be more drops over the month of February. Prices scalpers can charge are getting lower and lower, but unfortunately they are still a problem. You’ll need to use a stock app like HotStock in order to have a reasonable chance

I think Argos, Game, Very and possibly Currys and ShopTo are supposed to drop two sets this month. Keep an eye out on Twitter too, some of the PS5 stock accounts are helpful in when they think the retailers will drop them.
 
Thanks everyone for the replies. This all sounds very complicated. Bit mad it’s so difficult to buy. Surely losing them a load of money. Bit amateur really.
Their problem has been covid as you can imagine, it slowed down the distribution of parts they need, mainly from AMD who supply for basically most tech companies in the world. You'll get one eventually but like I say, Twitter is the best place to figure when stock will be released.

I’ve heard possible drop from Game on the 10th which is Wednesday. Was at 10am last time so give it a try and Load up the section about 9:59 and refresh at 10 to see if any have dropped. Bundles are the best way to go on Game, don’t go for the console on its own.

Good luck mate

Edit: could even be tomorrow on Game do try the method above if you can tomorrow mate as well. Could be anywhere between 9-12, last time it was 10 so I’d estimate that time again.
 
Looking forward to little nightmares 2, pre ordered awhile back and it’s Out in a couple of days.
 
My gf has just surprised me with the Pulse headset and the charging dock.

After spending the weekend setting up my VR, I've had to unplug it all because the console doesn't have enough USB ports for it all. It's criminal the console only has 3 sockets.

Looking forward to testing the headphones later, but I'm not expecting them to be any better than the Sennheiser pair I have been using.

USB3 hub will sort that, but make sure you get the right one.
 
Is the Pulse headset worth it?
I like it! Haven’t taken advantage of the 3D audio yet, but I’m not really a massive audiophile, it’s the best headset I’ve ever had but I’ve only ever had cheap ones.

Ordered based on this. If it's crap I'm banning you.

Got them yesterday.

Sound quality is no improvement over the previous pair I was using. My brother tells me I sound clearer when we're playing. They're incredibly comfortable and being wireless is a nice benefit.

I don't feel they're a must buy. If you have a decent pair they won't be massive upgrade on them sound quality wise.

The way Sony market them a 3d Pulse implies they are the only headphones that give 3d audio but they're not.

I got the charging dock as well and if anything I'm more impressed by that because it's made everything look a lot smarter on the stand.

Yeah the charging dock is amazing. It's fantastic never having to plug the controller into a wire.

My current headphones are not great. My mates say they can hear their own voices echoing when I wear them so hopefully these will be better.
