Gaming PlayStation 5

I like discs because not only do they tend to be cheaper, especially if you wait, but I can then sell them on when finished. It's very seldom would I ever play through a story driven game more than once.

MM is going to be included in the new PS plus premium membership. You'll also get returnal and a whole bunch of other games. Just need to wait a couple of months and pay the £45 upgrade fee.

That's a good point, I forgot that the new streaming thing is coming. Hopefully, it shows up there.

It will.

At launch, we plan to include titles such as Death Stranding, God of War, Marvel’s Spider-Man, Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Mortal Kombat 11, and Returnal.

Just not clear what version it will be. Will be pleasantly surprised if it is the PS5 version.
 
I thought it was already confirmed it'd be the PS5 version, and it'll be downloadable - not just streamable, right?

Would be surprised if it wasn't.

Extra tier = downloadable only
Premium tier = downloadable and streamable (streamable only for PS4 games and earlier)

Not heard it confirmed it is the PS5 version but there'll definitely be some PS5 games on there given Returnal is only available there.
 
Unless I missed it, they still haven't confirmed what PS1/PS2/PSP games will be available on the highest tier yet, have they? Which seems a bit bizarre. Difficult to assess the value of this service without that vital piece information.
 
Streaming has been hit and miss when I've tried it on Xbox. I would not want to play a game I'm really excited about that way.
 
Platinum Shadow of War. 35th Platinum! Fecking brilliant game. By god it was grindy though for the end of it. Ironically I'm Now onto Shadow of the Colossus. Finish it this time.
 
Got Trek to Yomi today. The combat is a bit limited so far but the visuals and atmosphere are brilliant. A much better delivered samurai story than GOT.

I'm excited about what could happen but I hope they're actually the games I want to replay. Apparently these 5 have been leaked:

  • Tekken 2 – PS1
  • Mr Driller – PS1
  • Worms World Party – PS1
  • Worms Armageddon – PS1
  • Ridge Racers 2 – PSP
Tekken 2 is really all that takes my fancy there but i'm sure there'll be lots of classics revealed eventually.
 
£27 to fix my controller apparently. Even though it's only the R2 button that's lost a bit of resistance. I'm sure it's just a spring that needs adjusting but I don't know enough to do it myself.

Happened to me. Bought one from a shop, put my broken one in the box and returned it to the shop saying it was faulty.
 
I was bored, so I got the Platinum trophy in Spiderman. What made me do it was that you could play on easy and get the rest of the trophies I was missing.

Now, looking forward to playing Miles Morales, hopefully soon

Yeah, not a great bunch there. I like Ridge Racer, but the best Ridge Racer game is the one for the PSP. So hopefully they'll have that one. I'm just surprised they haven't already announced them. It's the only way to determine how valuable this service is.

The 'classics' section i was looking forward to looks absolutely dismal so far. Very disappointing :(
 
Looking forward to playing Death Stranding Director's Cut, Demon's Souls, Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut, Returnal, Marvel's Spider-Man, and Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales
 
That classic games catalog list is not great. Perhaps that's not all of it, but if it is, then they haven't really done a good job. To be fair, I had zero confidence in this service anyway, so can't say I'm surprised.
 
Anyone played the exclusive Vampire BR, watched a bit of it on twitch looks a little different could be fun.

Makes sense. That's what I was thinking/hoping when I was reading it. Not sure why they haven't revealed them all. Death Stranding and Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut is nice to have on the extra tier though. Havent' played them yet.

I think extra is the way to go for me. I'll have to wait to see how the premium tite pans out.
 
Ubisoft are shite and that all looks crap.

Gaming has really gone downhill the last few years.

Danger of people's eyes glazing over if they reveal all games at once when they need to get the messaging across of what each tier consists of. PS Now had over 800 games but they never got the messaging out there that many of the games on the service could be downloaded.

We'll get a better idea of what games are included when they're rolled out in the first region.
 
I know it's only a selection of the available games in the classics but if it was going to be better you'd think they'd want some heavy hitters on there from the get go to get people excited. To take one example Tekken 2 was a fine game but Tekken 3 is the one everyone really loves.

I've been thinking how great it would be to play some of my all time faves again on the playstation and getting super hyped and literally not one of them is available (as yet) :lol: :(

Agreed. I sold my Series X and PS5. There are no games coming out anytime soon that interest me at all. All I ended up playing was Warzone and that's free anyway. Currently I have a Series S which is collecting dust and only really gets used to watch Sky on the app.
 
Wrong there's still absolutely tons of great games they have just reversed roles its no longer the big hitters that are making great games and pushing boundaries its the small indie studios there is a huge back catalogue of fantastic games!
 
I'm lazy so have just been doing the £6.99 subscription for ages, am i going to be secretly upgraded do i have to do something.

I rarely turn my playstation on currently.
 
Plenty enough games to keep me happy on there - old Demon's Souls is especially nice, was about to play that and don't need to dust off the PS3 now - but it doesn't really look radically better than it was before.
