I did. Tough game. Some of the bosses are very Dark Soulsy. But it’s a lot of fun.
Gaming PlayStation 5

Just did the storage expansion - 1TB. Got the SSD for £125 and the heatsink separate for £12.99.
Took me about 15 minutes. I've now got 1.6TB for PS5 games and a separate 1TB SSD via USB for PS4 games.
Sorted.
P.S. Returnal is still great even though I beat the first boss but now can't survive more than halfway to the final boss on Biome 2
Doesn't help that after unlocking the health leech item I am yet to see it show up in my next 20 runs

Good value where did you purchase the SSD from ?
16 actually.
Is this a common issue then? Oddly one of mine started drifting down on the right stick yesterday.
It has been widely reported, yes. All modern controllers are prone to it to a certain degree, it would seem, but I've never really noticed it on the many Dualshock 4 controllers I've had. It's supposed to be terrible on the Switch Joy-Cons as well, but I've almost always used the Pro Controller there.

Played a couple hours of Guardians of the Galaxy, really enjoyable so far. The gameplay is accessible and fun, if nothing special. The characters and writing are the real star here though. The main cast is excellent and doesn't suffer in comparison to the movie cast at all - in fact I think I already like them better. Even the secondary characters are great. If it can keep up this level of quality for 15-20 hours, that's money well spent at the current reduced price on PSN.
Does anyone's ps5 make like a popping sound sometimes I've googled it and few people talking about it being the plastic expanded and coolong down. Anyone else have it?
Yeah mine does after it's been off for 10-15 mins, I put it down to the plastic expanding as well.
I got a text this morning saying my PS5 order has arrived in Argos, went down this morning and they said someone already picked up my PS5 order reservation. They used my number. Then later found out that my Aunt got 4 PS5’s from Argos. What the feck.
Your aunt has hacked your phone/email as part of her grand scalping ring.
Ok good to know its not just mine. Doesn't the occasional pop when it's on, but more when u turn it off. Must be the plastic expanding as its cooling down (I hope haha)
I've had the issue as well, one of my controllers left joystick has my character walking forward constantly. Got the controller with the console in April.
Have people had bad experiences sending them to Sony for replacements?
Anyone here play outriders? Thinking of picking it up for £20. Played it on gamepass before but CBA turning the Xbox on these days.
Obviously I'd prefer to play with others if anyone else has it.

Really enjoying Kena, well worth the £32.
Upto the Corrupted Taro which is much tougher than anything I’ve faced so far. Didn’t expect the difficulty to be as high, sort of expected an easy going game so pleasantly surprised there are challenging parts.
My only real gripe so far is the lack of a mini map or the option to place markers on your world map. When you’re looking for collectibles and such it makes it much more time consuming.

If it helps, he's actually probably the hardest boss until the last boss (who is so, so, so tough). Took me around 20 goes to beat him, he's so much harder than anything until that point. There are quite a few difficult bosses after him, too, though.
Agree with the mini map, and stuff like markers for rot you've already found would've been nice.
Is it really hard? I'm considering picking it up for my dad for Christmas but the man has no patience for games with any sort of challenge.
From what I’ve played so far most of the game isn’t ‘hard’ but there are some challenging bosses which will require patience as you learn the enemies moves/strategy and how to combat them.
Cheers Elvis, appreciate that Elvis
Ratchet would be the better choice if that's the case depending on hasn't played it and would like it.
Still really enjoying Kena. Corrupt Woodsmith is a great boss fight.
I reckon this will be my next purchase. You can't argue with £32 really and it looks great.
Does anyone recommend the Pulse 3D headset, or a preferred alternative? My Turtle Beach headset I've had for 10 years or so is now failing me and I need a replacement. Preferably wireless and one I can use for other things such as on my laptop etc.
I don't play many games that need a high quality but more for in game chat etc.

The Arctis' were a lot more comfortable to wear. The mic is also a lot clearer when talking to other people.
I got it a month ago, I wasnt disappointed at all, however I am not a technical guy.
Just ordered 2 controllers for Xmas presents, 1 black and 1 red (had trouble finding a red one in stock)
I've got the Arctis Pro Wireless that i use across PC/PS5 they are fantastic the Battery charger and spare battery mean you are never left without charging, but the price is a stumbling block these look like a good middle ground.
I also have the pulse headset, but i never use it the comfort isn't great and a bit plastic but the sound is good enough
Do these work on PS5 also? Thinking on getting a pair of headphones for Christmas but don’t want to spend crazy these look in my price bracket, what does anyone else say?
Yes they do.
They come with a USB-C dongle that plugs into the front of the PS5. The headphones automatically connect to the dongle so you don't need to set them up. The only issue is that the dongle does cover up the USB slot at the front of the PS5 so you lose a slot.
Does this mean you can’t charge your controller at the same time because that could be an issue?
There's two USB ports at the back of the PS5 so you can use those to charge a controller. Might be annoying if you want to play with that controller wired and cable length is an issue.
Use the USB ports on the back.
Seeing as I'm going to be a bachelor soon with my own pad, I've been thinking of getting a decent steering wheel set up for the PS5 when GT7 arrives. Never owned one before, what's generally the best unit?
Yeah I usually play for several hours at a time so prefer it to be wired, the cable wouldn’t be long enough as you say.
Maybe could turn the PS5 around the other way I guess, that might work?
Or turn it 90 degrees, then there are neither front or back but multiple side ports.
You’re using your head now.
