I'm in a similar boat. I think it probably deserves credit for being a decent alternative to a good PC performance wise. Not common with consoles. You'll get to play God of War 2 and Horizon a year or 18 months earlier than you would otherwise? Maybe you have friends on PSN to play FIFA against? Theres the odd game like Bloodborne that hasn't and possibly wont get released on PC?
Maybe its a game of the year edition or something on premium? Theres probably multiple copies of the game.
Not sure, i tried clicking the different versions and it kept trying to make me pay. Weird.
Yes, excellent game, won loads of awards as well. It's well worth playing until you get the full ending. And even then there's still a lot to uncover.
Cool, earlier in the year I worked through the first 3 so I can replay the 4th. Looking forward to seeing it on PS5 and my new TV.
It just kind of annoyed me that I was locked out of some of the performance/quality options for RE2 remake because my TV is too old.Big enough that it's noticeable. I've just upgraded from an already nice TV to a Sony Bravia Oled with 2 x 2.1 ports. Awesome sound and incredible picture that supports high quality visuals and high frame rate in conjunction. It wasn't cheap but I'm very happy with it. GOW especially looks incredible.
Aren’t most of those nothing to do with hdmi 2.1 though? The main benefit is 120fps and 8k. The ps5 doesn’t do 8k and most games won’t support 120fps.
You're right to a degree but the step up in picture and stability is very noticeable as I said dude, and my old tv was no slouch. And to prove my point, slightly annoyingly, the TV doesn't auto detect input capabilities so Id' been playing GOW as a standard HDMI. Switched to 2.1 and it came to life. Beautiful.
It’s probably a moot point as most premium tvs will come with 2.1 now anyway if you’re buying one, but I just would not say it’s worth it if you already have a recently recent premium tv without it, if that makes sense. Coming from an older tv it definitely makes sense.
Yeah sure, agreed, but I'd also say from a future proofing POV it makes sense.
Thanks for the reply and that's encouraging. I've had my current tv for many years now so it's probably best to upgrade at some point anyway.
If your TV is old and you're looking to upgrade, you should definitely go for HDMI 2.1. It's not an absolute must, not that many games offer 4k120 modes for now (or 4k40 at 120Hz or above 60 with VRR), but HDMI 2.1 is widespread enough among modern sets that it wouldn't make sense to miss out.How big is the difference between playing a PS5 on a TV that supports HDMI 2.1 and, well, not playing on one? Thinking of upgrading my TV to one that works at an optimal level with my PS5. Pretty expensive by the looks of things but if it improves my experience then it might be worth it.
And yes i'm technologically illiterate
Sadly not as my TV is pretty old-must be 6 or 7 years now.

for the year it works out at less than 7 quid a month so good value I’d say. Loads of good games in the game catalogue. Classics needs improving though
Haven't looked that carefully so maybe someone will correct me but i believe the premium tier just adds some ps1 games. Not a particularly wide selection and not a particularly good conversions of them. So even if its dirt cheap its not worth it.
It also gives PS3 streaming, which is what does it for me, as I'm currently/planning to play games like Heavy Rain, Sly Cooper, Arkham Origins, and Ratchet & Clank.
Sadly not. Rumours of a remake happening soon though.
Yeah and United are interested in signing signing Sneijder and Gaitan!
PS3 streaming without MGS4*
