Yeah looks great for a starter catalogue. Have there been any big departures?
Ok thanks
Hi guys, it's been 18 months since I got this, and I have barely played any first person shooter games. I tried to play COD once, and playing with a controller was absolutely miserable. Any tips or games you would recommend to help me get better at fps games using a controller?
I don't really understand this. Generally the best games, or certainly the games that use a consoles potential best, come towards the end of its life cycle when developers have fully understood it.
Not to mention the ps5 and xbox released during covid, which has definitely pushed some games back.
You do understand it really in a general sense don't you?
Not really. Like I said it's pretty common for console generations to see the best use of the console towards the end of its life. Not in the first year. And covid fecked stuff up too.
Yea I understand what you're saying. I was going to say no need to be condescending but it's a forum so its allowed.
Saw this article that I thought made good reading about first party exclusives (obviously ignoring any next gen but cross platform games alongside the One X).

Arguably Uncharted 4 was the first game that really took advantage of the hardware to deliver a great game that was also impossible on PS3. So maybe 3 years after its release. It was 4 yrs onwards that things like Horizon Dawn Zero and God of War started to arrive.

I was just looking at the releases and noticed that. It was 2016 when the first games that really used the hardware came out and 2017 was the start of the rush of great games. It took longer than I remembered on PS4.
You must be a very sensitive little soul if you think that was condescending.
Interesting. I've been critical of the lack of PS5 exclusives but I assumed it was the chip shortage and the Covid crisis.
I'm honestly happy that more people get to enjoy games if they're cross gen but i'm also itching to see what this generation can do. Of the exclusives i've played, Demon's Souls, Returnal and Ratchet and Clank are the games that have impressed me and given a little glimpse of what could be done.
I might be, but you are condescending.
My post might indicate that in life I can sometimes be a bit too sensitive. Your posts indicate that in life you can sometimes be condescending. So we've both got things to reflect on which is ultimately helpful. Maybe I underestimate the power of the forum.

I don't think you know what the word means.
Not condescending at all. I hope you don't talk to people in real life like this. Poor little soul and don't understand why you wouldn't know this, for example. I was innocently querying about the ps5 and you chime in with a shit cnut attitude. I'd be happy to admit being sensitive it comparison.
Oh so that one sentence at the start is the bit that offended you. The "I don't really understand this" bit, because the last few gens have been exactly like that, where it takes developers a while to understand the best way to use the systems. The rest was totally reasonable. And now you're name calling. Very adult.
@pacifictheme and @giggs-beckham can you two just insult each other’s moms and move on like other gamers?
Holy shit the sexual tension between you guys is insane.
Both consoles are now super similar to PC architecture there will obviously be improvements over the consoles lifecycle but there won't be huge gains like some of the other consoles.
PS3 is the prime example as due to the cell architecture it made it possible to make huge optimisations.
Add on to the fact we are reaching a diminishing point with graphics overall so its small improvements rather then any vast differences, the next biggest move imo will be the use of AI for resolution/framerate as which is currently being implemented by NVIDIA in the 4000 series cards.

I couldn't because shes great
You don't want to turn on me
And for the record, I've been very restrained of late. Notice how I've not entered the GTA 6 thread despite it greatly amusing me to read...

Cyperpunk 2077 was a rushed mess when it first came, but if you like story driven FPS's (well its not really a true FPS) then i would highly reccomend it. Got it on sale abut a week ago and the story, writing and world is fecking amazing imo.
Single player Deathloop it's free on a certain tier of Playstation plus.
Multiplayer wise plenty of free to play options, personally Apex legends is leagues above them all for me.
Hot Wheels Unleashed is one of the monthly PS Plus Essential titles for October, looks like a lot of fun. I've always loved this type of arcade, wacky racer (much like Trackmania), so I'm looking forward to checking it out. It has a track creator as well.
It's excellent.
I found the track creator a bid fiddly though and it doesn't really, as far as I could see, let you know if the physics of your track work. So many of my attempts at making a track ended up with my car constantly falling off.
I'm more interested in seeing what the community comes up with rather than creating stuff myself.
Thanks both! Think I'll start with Apex Legends since it's free. But will very likely buy Deatloop and Cyberpunk in some months when the price drops down.
Not sure why this is ground breaking to anybody else. Agree. Companies fully understand the architecture, it’s limitations and build around it. Look at ghosts. Amazing performance to the point the difference between the standard ps4 version and the ps5 upgrade is neither here nor there.
I would second cyberpunk. Also got it in the sale last week and so far it has been genuinely brilliant. Gameplay is really good too, way more fun than I thought it would be.
Hot wheels unleashed is a great little game for free. Good time killer if you've got half hour spare.
What if you only have 25 minutes?
No good, absolute shambles then.
Nah, it's probably about 5mins a race tbh. Very simple game, but good fun too..doesn't feel as if it cheats you, you just pay for your own mistakes. Great for kids I'd reckon
I need to get a PS5
Plan is to pick one up this side of Christmas as they are more widely available now. Just wondering if any good deals might crop up Black Friday.

Can't see it myself tbh, the demand still outweighs the supply. Black Friday is just junk companies want rid of because theirs a newer model coming out.
Considering Sony just increased the price of the thing I somehow doubt there will be any deals.
