I’m sorry for booting LVG in the face 3 times in a row :smith:

Awww, I did not want anyone to feel exhausted :(

And she is cool with it. She wants to play more so she can destroy you all. She can get very competitive.

Finally. I'm still kinda disappointed that I couldn't transfer my videos and screenshots over, and that videos are still limited to 30fps. You can stream at 60fps though.

I love recording my wins and losses against the super bosses in Kingdom Hearts II and III, but it would be much nicer to have them at 60fps.

Videos can be at 60fps but the game has to support it. All PS5 games can record at 60, but whether or not a BC title records at 60 tends to be pretty spotty.

I just to the point where I can branch out and do whatever I want in Deathloop and man, this is my kind of game. For some reason I expected a more sandboxy, less story-driven game but this is just pure Arkane. It feels like every Arkane game I've ever played put together into a single game. It even has the overpowered kick button from Dark Messiah. Now I just need to acquire Blink Shift and all will be right with the world.

Chill, whale, chill
Ordered a SSD 1TB and a heatsink to install. Necrothatcher how was the process?

Also about 2 hours into Deathloop and its quite fun. Still gettin the hang of it but really enjoying the movement and shooting. Very vertical maps! Some of the exact aiming thats needed to pick up items is annoying but Im getting better at it.

i updated my ps5 and the first thing i noticed, they reverted the game icons back to their original ones, so no more big red ugly "playstation hits" on the bloodborne icon. :getin:

this update is a game changer. i can read the trophy list now :eyepop: i just need to turn on my ps3 and make sure they fixed it so i can view my ps5 trophies on there otherwise ill be sending a letter to my member of parliament

This is the SSD I bought for my PlayStation 5 https://www.newegg.com/western-digital-blue-2tb/p/N82E16820250093?Item=N82E16820250093 in case the discount price doesn't show up, I bought it for $190, which seems like a great deal for a 2TB.

Ooh man I haven't the feintest idea, I don't think so. The idea of putting a heatsink on your SSD is weird to me and I don't understand why this is apparently necessary?

M2s will throttle down as they get hotter to avoid damaging themselves. It’s especially important for these gen4s

Edit: this video even tests speeds with and without heatsink and the difference is huge

I'm sure no expert but I don't think the WD Blues are fast enough or compatible or whatever with the PS5 internally. Believe you need the Black series for WD drives.

Whoops! Reading the specs, this seems like it matches the requirements that Sony lists. They mention that any SSD that is M.2 2280, with at least 5GB/Sec should work.

I just looked and this is correct. That WD Blue is far too slow. Here are the requirements

https://www.playstation.com/en-us/support/hardware/ps5-install-m2-ssd/#min

The ps5 requires about 10 times what the WD blue does

Is the heat sink something you must purchase separately and attach to the SSD before installing it, or is it just that you buy an SSD that already has one pre-mounted and you can just plug & play?

I made sure to get a heatsink too. I'm not going to mess around with that recommendation, it's there for a reason, and is the whole reason why Sony delayed enabling the SSD port for almost a year. I ordered this https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08RK2SR23/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and this Heat sink https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B082VTVP51/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Some include it already attached and some you have to buy individually and attach yourself. Just check the listing or the package, it’ll advertise when it comes with one
