Best five bucks I've ever spend.

Is there a release day embargo for reviews on Demon Souls? Weird that Miles Morales has been reviewed already and not Demon Souls.

Review copies were supposedly sent out two days ago, with the embargo lifting on 11/11. That's not a whole lot of time to play through the game and write a review, but the timing makes sense when you consider the slow drip that Sony has been putting out. After the unboxing stuff Astro got a lot of buzz and positive attention based on the future promise of the DS, then Miles Morales gets its time in the spotlight along with good back compat news, and then we have Demon's Souls the day before launch to close out the pre release hype.

There are only so many reasons to get a PS5 right now, and you don't want to overshadow any of them as you prepare for launch. Not that Sony is going to have a hard time selling these.

So...based on the xbox/target it looks like 1:30 am your stores time is about when they will go up Weds nite/Thurs morning. Assuming things stay consistent.

And unless they change something in two days, Target's site is not well suited to handling in-store pickup with low quantities / high demand. Enjoy getting kicked out of the checkout process every few seconds as the site ricochets you around between 10 different local stores as the handful of consoles they have sell out.

Online retail stores anyways were a huge mess tonight for selling xbox. Many just did not have any, gamestop was a overpriced bundle only, and Newegg screwed up and ended up not having it for sale. Hoping Target or Sonys website will pull through for me on Wednesday night.

I want to thank Vikar for alerting me to Exophase. I now live in shame knowing how much I play some games.

if it makes you feel better, i think some of it might be bugged. i've only been through tlou2 once and that survivor save file says 41 hours but exophase is claming 104 hours lol. tho that might also be leaving it paused or dying or something. then again, that doesnt explain resident evil 2's 6min full completion time. also it wont take my gog info but it will take everything else and retroachievements for emulators, so thats cool i guess.

but i do like how you can get a sick gamercard to fit with the forum signatures.

Yeah that's a user project, so it's very much a work in progress. But it will be cool to see RT get implemented in old games by users and for re-releases. A ray-traced Thief or System Shock 2 project could be so cool.

they have a cool thread over there about posting gaming setups/collections, lot of people posting new consoles and such now, but its usually giving out tips/ideas for setups and living room arrangements, tho it does sometimes get a bit show offy with the super rich but i was pondering stealing that idea for a chiller thread here in maybe retro or games but i dunno if most goons are into that kinda thing tbh lol.

Ah parties - I did not think about that, I just kept imagining how tough it would be to sit there and twist and turn to look at the tv screen, or repetitive to keep moving it around the room whenever anyone wanted to sit on it and watch the telly.

Or how it would distract me if it were just me watching the TV and could see an empty chair right next to the screen.

uhhhhhh... so in addition to that ps3 tab in the game library on ps5, the loving store is now listing ps3 games with their own cost. some are 7.99, others 4.99 but it still lists psnow. the psnow price is 8.99 too, so its not that. are they gonna let you buy solo streaming games? lol. if so, then i wonder if that other rumour was true, about putting old discs in the ps5 and you can play... the streaming version. :barf:

yes, but there was a rumour awhile ago that ps1-3 bc would be handled by streaming via psnow and putting your disc in hte ps5 would give you access to that but only be able to play it via streaming, at least for ps3. they have working ps1/2 emulators so...

no. unless they add it to psnow or do the disc thing without it being on the service

No one left uncured.
I got you.
GAME is maximally trolling now, they've set all their console bundles to show a big inviting "PRE-ORDER" button instead of "out of stock", and the product page even says pre-order instead of out of stock too, so you now have to click through a second time to learn they are in fact still all out of stock.

Smyths are being a lot more straightforward, and have a note saying there'll be stock in on the 19th, so, hooray dice rolling.

So I wanted to ask, I have PT downloaded on my PS4. I forget, can people who own PT still redownload it? Like if I were to sell off my PS4 at some point, and them someday buy on again to play PT, would that work at all?
