It’s excellent but the rest of the line up is crap.

Obviously if you have both you’re not going to complain as at least one will give you something decent. Ps plus was great for the first year. Last few months have been a let down and a severe downgrade in quality
No chance would ND ever ship something as bad as Redfall. They didn't need to reinvent the wheel with factions. Maybe Sony wanted them to do that, though. What we had in the first game was really good. An updated version of that would have been great.
It's not even about the price. I'm tired of them wasting time on remasters when we already have a quality product right there. They could be using the dev resources on a new product. It's low risk and people seem to double dip a lot, but I don't like this practice.
Remasters/remakes make sense to me when the product is 10+ years old and the only way to play it is on old hardware.
Is all this talk of a remaster of TLOU2 based solely on that LinkedIn post?
There is no concrete reports from anywhere as far as I can see.
I expect they will remaster it at some point; but I feel they'd wait for season 2 on the TV show to do that.

It'll be a PC version of it for releasing in 2024 / 2025 and Sony have probably seen the dollar signs in bringing that enhanced version over to PS5. Yeah, It'll definitely be timed for season 2.
I don't really understand why Bungie's opinion would carry that much weight with Sony re: TLOU Factions or whatever it was going to be called. Destiny is a successful franchise but it's not like it hasn't had ups and downs.
@Alock1 is right, it's terrible news for people who enjoyed TLOU's multiplayer and have been looking forward to this. I couldn't care less about it, but the original's MP had a strong fanbase.
Also have no idea what the point of a TLOU2 remaster is - I played it for the first time last year and it's one of the best looking games available on any console in its current form.

It no longer being a viable GAAS doesn't mean it's dead. Maybe we see it as is, alongside TLOU2 remaster. Can't wait to replay that game again tbh...
I see the price of the PS5 digital has gone up again with the new model, and if you want to add the disc drive later it will cost you a whopping £99.99. Also neither of the new models come with the vertical stand anymore, so that is an additional £25 to add onto the price.
Jim Ryan making the most of his last months on the job. What a beautiful legacy this man is going to leave behind.
It looks … the same but with a line across?
It appears to be smaller.
I like how they haven't put the proper ps5 in a photo next to it.
Someone mocked it up somewhere and it's barely any different apparently.
£480 for a line is a bargain
I’ve never been a fan of the slim versions of consoles. Give me the fat originals any day.
I’m glad it’s an immaterial change so my PS5 remains ‘next’ gen.
Perhaps.
It's a bad looking console to begin with and an absolute nightmare to travel with so I just hope they will eventually release a slim version that will be of much simpler shape that fits in a backpack.
Would you be able to stream through PlayStation Portal?
Probably not as we can't stream through Remote Play. They might change things down the line but no idea. This is interesting wording though:
It launches 15 days to a month before the Portal is out.
Outlast 2 is a part of the PS Plus Extra line up. I’m sure they’ve given it before in the old PS Plus. That’s the only reason I played it!
Yes, they did. Was only the one month giveaway whereas on Extra it'll be there at least 3 months.
Cheers. I knew it! They’ve resorted to giving out recycled games
This month is okay. Thankfully it has a few indies here and there to somewhat save it. But the trend of poorly rated main titles does continue.
PSN seemingly down. Definitely well worth that price increase.
I bought Resi 4 Remake because I want to play the VR mode, but I then decided to replay the campaign, after playing on Xbox eariler this year. And for some reason, this time it really clicked. I really loved it. I got the platinum in it and got every trophy in Separate Ways. In a year of great games, it's now my GOTY, so far, knocking Resi 8 VR from number 1.
We will see if Spiderman 2 or Alan Wake 2 can dethrone it. What a year of games.

Probably one of the best ever.
I knew a few Albanians that can get you a line much cheaper that.
Is anyone else playing Alan Wake 2 on PS5? And if so are the haptics working on the dualsense? I've played almost the whole game, and I don't think they are working as intended. You're supposed to feel rain drops and everything!
GAME are selling Resident Evil 4 Remake for £22. Just added that to the backlog.
They also had the new Street Fighter for £20.

Not working for me too. Thought there was an issue with my controller at first.
Another hopeless month Ps plus essential. Hopefully extra makes up for it.
Are you guys noticing any difference in TV screen size etc when playing PS5, i.e. does it make a massive difference whether you have a 55' or 65' TV, and if it's OLED and UHD or whatever else there is on the market?
Depends on the type of game, playing on a 65 OLED (modern warfare) compared with a 27 inch monitor totally different experience the smaller the better, you can play faster and less screen real estate for me allowed for more refined aiming in tight situations. But the newer Spiderman on the other hand, has been far more enjoyable on the larger screen.
OLED's usually have better lag inputs as they are some of the flagship ends of most TV manufacturers. Use to play on a Samsung UHD and the transition to an OLED / QD-OLED was night and day in terms of inputs. Add in the refresh rate differences it's totally different. Black uniformity is also far better so darker games with lots of shadows are more visible. The difference between OLED and UHD / LED is significant.
Just got the LG C3 Evo 65” and Spiderman 2 looks stunning.
Nice, they're really nice tv's and the wayOLED's process black is amazing. A big OLED is such a jump right? Had my OLED for about 11 months now and it still blows me away sometimes.
Enjoy.
Got me new PS5 a few weeks back, such a lovely thing after 8 months of XBox. Reminded me how deluxe the PS5 controllers are.
I seem to be in a white hot vein of COD form too!

Played some of The Pathless this past weekend, good stuff so far. It draws inspiration from Journey and Shadow of the Colossus with a bit of Breath of the Wild thrown into the mix. That makes it sounds more derivative than it is, it's really its own thing, but you can feel the influence of those games. Love the visual style and soundtrack as well. I'm not sure if it will remain fresh for its entire runtime, but I really like what I've played so far.
Thanks, makes sense. I haven't bought a TV in hundered years so really keen on finally investing in something that's really good.
