Gaming PlayStation 5

Yeah down for me too. Just bought Minecraft for my little sister that is over for the weekend so hoping that is why it isn't working. She's happy enough with Astro's Playground at the moment at least.
 
Also I'm super looking forward to the Witcher 3 upgrade! Does anyone know if its free to anyone who already owns the game?
 
Cant sleep, thought I would hop on the PS5 and I cant connect to the network to play online. Had watched The Quiet Place 2 last night, suspect its connected...
 
Has anyone signed up to the Apple TV deal? I downloaded the app and signed in using my apple ID but there's no mention of any 6 month trial. It just has an option for 7 days free trial.

Do I need to have had a subscription to Apple TV in the past or something? I haven't used my apple ID in about 10 years when I last had an iPhone.

I did it on my PS5 But it does still say 1 weeks free trial. Maybe it’ll trigger after that week?

Got it working. I had to make sure I had a payment method attached to my account. Then I went into browse categories, selected Apple TV+ and the option was there for me to select the 6 months free.

Sweet Got it, just popped up after I logged back in. Wanna see what all the fuss is about Ted Lasso.

Is that an upcoming upgrade? I've had the Witcher 3 on the PS4 for years and have recently dipped into it again on the PS5. It might be my imagination but the loading times seem quicker.

The only two games I've noticed a big difference in from a base PS4 is Shadow of the Colossus and CyberPunk (the huge improvement could be due to patches as much as the PS5's power).

Its free and its a next gen upgrade, i guess they will bump up the resolution and add some form of raytracing.
 
Going to pick up F1 2021 and want to get a steering wheel to go with it. Also want to the wheel for the new GT (when that eventually comes out) although tempted to pick up GT sport if anyone thinks that is worth it?

I have seen the Thrustmaster T150 at 150€ or the Drive pro Gs700 at 100€ anything other than that seems to expensive and I guess anything below would just be poor quality?

Are there any other models within a similar price range that are worth looking at?
I've got the T150, got it for £180 with the pro pedal set included. It's a great wheel, the FFB is great.

Also got F1 a few days ago, it's a good game, but it's riddled with a load of game breaking bugs at the moment, like playing coop with my mate, the first race would be over after 1 lap and we would both get DNFs. Can't do more than a few laps without crashing though :lol:

Any issues with the single player/my team? I have only seen gameplay through youtube which I guess doesn't go through the gamebugs

Yeah the t150 is solid.

Thanks both, will be added to the shopping list!

Haven't encountered any single player issues myself, although have seen others having some general, although AI balancing still needs to be improved, Bottas is winning most races which isn't realistic at all etc.

There is sure to be a patch released to tidy a few things up as is the norm these day.

I don’t tend to focus to much on who wins as I am more likely to put the car in the grandstand than the podium!! :lol:
 
It’s class, you will be amazed at how fast it is.

Aye, once it's here and I open it I'll probably be buzzing, got miles Morales with it, extra controller too. Still plodding through AC Valhalla on PS4 so might transfer that across for extra shinyness. Only thing I'm really excited for is Horizon Forbidden West, kena looks cool too mind.
 
Could someone help me with picking out a game I might like? I really don't like games where the emphasis is on stories and there are lots of cutscenes etc. Also no side missions if possible. Just need core gameplay, and the focus should be one improving on this gameplay throughout the duration of the game. I know this is kind of vague, but I'm struggling to put what I want into words atm.

Returnal - there is a story and the odd cutscene but nothing at all too heavy. It's a very difficult game if you like a challenge.
 
Getting the disc version is easily the best choice here if you are a bit skint for money. Have just bought Demon Souls and Ratchet and Clank for 25 pounds each. Can't make myself pay for 60 quid for a game. And I can resell them as well when I feel done with them.
 
Bought Streets of Rage 4. What a fun game. I was in the mood for something like this. Don't have to concentrate on the narrative or watch 20 minute cut scenes, just pure gameplay. I will say, not a huge fan of the music. It's not terrible, but it really doesn't stand out like in Streets of Rage 2
