Blasted through Sleeping Dogs this week. Still a quality game. Love the fight and counter animations. Sort of like an Ong Bak or The Raid kind of aesthetic. Shame they never did another one.
Is there ány reliable indication when I could just go to a webshop/store at a random moment and having a PS5 in stock there?
Maybe towards the end of the year/early 2022.
sold my ps5 months ago and really don't regret it. That might change when Horizon and god of war come, though.
Could be useful for when you're up in the middle of the night. Congrats by the way.Damnit thats too late! My girl will have given birth by then, so its fair to say my life will be fairly over then

I thought I’d read an article a couple of months back saying it would be the end of this year, early next as they were increasing production. But yeah demand doesn’t seem to be going down.Could be useful for when you're up in the middle of the night. Congrats by the way.
Elvis is a bit too optimistic. Going to be mid-late 2022/early 2023 when you can get a PS5 so easily.
Yeah, even with increased production the demand is still going to be through the roof.I thought I’d read an article a couple of months back saying it would be the end of this year, early next as they were increasing production. But yeah demand doesn’t seem to be going down.

Finally got the platinum on Miles Morales. Had it downloaded since I got my PS5 but only dipped in and out. Overall I really enjoyed it and there’s some exciting future opportunities to play as both Miles and Peter and coop/switch during missions.
You realise on the new game plus just how short the game is when you B-Line it through the campaign though, but it’s ultimately pretty satisfying and links well to the previous game. Glad I played the remaster before this too because it does help to provide some additional story pieces and I’m not sure I could go back to the basic powers without camo and venom.
I think both are good games but MM really refines the combat with the extra abilities. I wonder in the next game if they have to give Peter something to keep him interesting too in combat, perhaps venom? The only thing I'd say is that overall I preferred Peter to Miles. Maybe it's just the 'classic' Spiderman character or the fact I find Miles voice a little annoying but I preferred the overall dialogue and characters in the first one. They are both great though and one of the few series I have two Platinums on!Yeah, it's a great game and a very easy Platinum. I think they improved on the previous Spider-Man game by making it more focused and taking out the padding that bogged that game down. Those stupid tech puzzles and stealth missions were bad. Miles Morales just doesn't stop, really. It just keeps going and is a much better game for it. Really enjoyed it.

Good point on New York I didn't really think of that. Spiderman is just so classically New York, but yeh for gamers a new setting would be potentially more interesting. I was going to suggest they could introduce some different seasons, but between the first two games we've already seen New York in both summer and winter. I don't really know enough about the Spiderman comics/movies to know if he ever goes anywhere else?I think Venom will definitely make an appearance, yeah. I think there have been rumours that he's in it. Obviously this is far from confirmed.
My question is how are they going to keep NYC interesting to traverse. The swinging mechanic is excellent, but we've had two games now that both take place in Manhattan and I assume the next game will take place there, too. My worry is, is that it's going to become boring swinging around the same parts of Manhattan again. I love NY and it looks incredible in these games, but I think I would prefer it if they left the city. I'm not sure I want them to stay in Manhattan for the third time in a row.

Yeh as cool as Venice would be, I don't think Spiderman travelling around on a gondola has quite the same impactWell in the film Far From Home they go to Europe (Venice, specifically... I think), so somewhere in Europe would be interesting. I'm not sure if somewhere like Venice would work though, as you haven't obviously got the densely packed skyscrapers like you do in NY to use as launch points. So I don't know how they'd get over that, mechanically speaking.

The real question is what do I play now? I've just finished Rage 2, platinumed a Plague Tale: Innocence and platinumed Miles Morales. I have quite a few games which I've started but can't face finishing; AC Valhalla, Ghost of Tsushima, Manhunter, Ratchet and Clank (2016) and potentially a Retunal platinum run, even debating a Skyrim SE platinum run.
Nothing is pulling me back in at the moment. I know I'd like to play the new Ratchet game when that drops in price but for once my wishlist looks a little lean. Has anyone played the previous Metro games? I liked the look of the new one released in 2019(?) but I've never played any of them.
Yeh that’s partly why I gave up on the platinum for returnal. Not sure I have the stomach for that grind. I have PS now at the moment so just having a look at what they have to offer!I got the platinum in Returnal the other week. It's a long one. It was not a fun Platinum!
One of those ones where you go "what the feck am I actually doing?"
You can get Metro Redux (which is the two games remastered) on the ps store for something like £3.79 at the moment.
New game plus at the hardest difficulty. Thank me later, it makes the great gameplay god tier.Just realised I'm only 4 trophies short of the platinum on Horizon Zero Dawn, so I think I'll redownload that, and it's an excuse to perhaps play through the DLC afterward. It's clear looking at my trophy list just how much I love the PlayStation exclusives; platinums in both Spiderman games, Days Gone, soon Horizon, and hopefully Ghost of Tsushima eventually.
I may well give this a go tbh!New game plus at the hardest difficulty. Thank me later, it makes the great gameplay god tier.
Be on there earlier in case it is a bit earlier, but the last few drops (at least) that have been posted in here from various places have been around 9am. Good luck.Game drop is rumoured to be tomorrow now. Betwee. 9-10am they think.
Fingers crossed.Think I've got one from game, feck knows tbh ordered something. God knows when it'll be delivered, says pre order, says the 30th, but then somewhere else it says 3rd August, then somewhere else it said 27th July

I'm not actually sure if I can use the DLC because I already had the game downloaded prior to the free release of the ultimate edition. If I cant access them I might just buy them if I can complete the game again as they can't be expensive now surely. Also despite only having 4 trophies left I no longer have my save so I've had to start over again anyway. Enjoying it so far, it still looks visually brilliant especially on the PS5 compared to the OG PS4.The DLC is great but there’s a definite difficulty bump!
Did you add it to your library at the time?I'm not actually sure if I can use the DLC because I already had the game downloaded prior to the free release of the ultimate edition.
I couldn’t because it said I already had it so don’t think it worksDid you add it to your library at the time?
