wat is that tv, looks wacko small

Unless I'm massively mistaken, that's a 34 inch TV, so yeah, they took almost the smallest TV possible as a reference.

I'm gonna put it in the floor and pray daily that my rabbit doesn't do stupid poo poo to it

I'm suddenly very interested in how having a rabbit in your house works. Do they know where to poop, do you feel like they enjoy your company.
Sorry for the derail.

Hmm there's a pretty decent deal in my area where they'll give me a voucher for €150 if I return my console today. I have a PC so it's not a huge deal to go without a console for a few months, but off course they cannot tell me when their next batch of consoles will arrive.

1 this is awesome.
2 it is hilarious that after all the marketing about 60FPS, part of what makes this so great is lowering Miles' frame rate.

The movie Into the spiderverse did something very similar. If I recall correctly Miles Morales spiderman was animated at half the fps of Peter Parker spiderman.

For the people who have played demon souls original, do you think it will hold up for those of us who have mostly played the later from software games? Will gameplay level/encounter design still be good, or will it be slightly outdated by bloodborne et al.?

web browsers are a huge attack surface and the ps4 one was used as a jailbreak vector several times, so i guess they decided it's not worth it

This is terrible news for that one goon that used his ps4 to browse and post on the forums

Hey guys just checking in is the PS5 good and worth getting and is getting the all-digital version a better use of money since I'll be able to expand it later on so I might as well use the extra hundred bucks on a second controller+game thanks in advance.

I buy all my disc games second hand and sell them for the same price I bought them. No digital for me.

I'm in Belgium and I put myself on a waiting list for a big retailer back in september. They contacted me 2 months later to ask if I wanted the disc version or not, and last thing I heard from them was an email in december that told me not to expect a ps5 in 2020.

EDIT: this is belgium btw.

I bought the digital version of control for the ps4 a while ago, never got any of the expansion packs. Would my save transfer on to the ultimate edition when I get it for free on a ps5?

Cyberpunk is going to be really good in 3 years, just like Witcher 3 after its nightmarish first 3 years.

The witcher 3 was a pretty good game out of the box. Meanwhile Cyberpunk is still so hosed up that 4 months after it was released you still can't buy it on a playstation. And from what I've heard from reviewers and friends who have played it, even if it ran flawless it would still be a mediocre game.

EDIT: My ps5 finally arrived, time to play some upgraded ps4 games.

I have been binging Sushi Ghost this week and recommend it entirely, even if it hasn't had the full upgrade experience and doesn't Dualsense every sword draw.

It took my a while to figure out which game you were talking about, but yeah, once i'm done with some of my current big games i'm definitely getting that. I just started playing Sekiro though, so I'll probably avoid Japan for a while.

Battlefield V, Wreckfest, Stranded deep

How is the battlefield V single player? I kinda enjoyed the WW1 game as a free SP shooter.
Never paid attention to the other two games, any good?

So what's the next big "Very Next Gen" game coming out that I can look forward to?

Ratchet and Clank is fine, but I feel like I wouldn't have picked it up if there was a bigger catalogue.

Elden ring is january 2022. It's cross-gen though.

I went BB and then DS1-3-2 and had a great time with all of them but I know some have had trouble going back to DS1 after later games. I also think 1-2-3 will work really well for anyone who decides to do it that way. You can’t lose!!!!

I played DeS after all their other games with the exception of dark souls and while i really enjoyed the game, almost every boss fight was super easy. Ironically the only one i struggled with was dragon god. Everything else died in 4 attempts or less.

It was never rumoured to be aztec themed, that was this thread correctly saying "an aztec bloodborne souls game would own"

The rumour is theres a FROM ps5 exclusive coming that may have the code name velvet veil and also bloodborne2 with bluepoint doing the graphics.


First we'll get Elden Ring DLC, given how insanely well it's sold. From makes some of the best DLC content there is in the business, so I'm already excited.
Then I'm speculating a Bloodbourne next-gen upgrade and PC release. Not a Demon's souls-like rebuilding from the ground up, more like making sure it runs at 60 fps and improving the textures, like with Dark Souls.

Then surely their next full game is going to be that mecha souls game that had blurry screenshot leaked?

Demon's Souls on PS5 looks really, really nice but its also still Demon's Souls. Nice to have it load so fast, though, thats for darn tootin.

Im feeling confident on my power ranking of these games now, though, having played all of them in the last 3 months.

Dark Souls
Elden Ring
Dark Souls 2
Sekiro
Demon's Souls
Dark Souls 3
Bloodborne

I can't decide if this list is going from worst to best or vice versa.

Elden ring > Sekiro > demons souls = bloodborne = dark souls 2 > dark souls 3 > dark souls is how I currently rank.

That middle three jumble around a lot in my mind. Some days it is one more than the other and the next day a different on is in the lead.

I'm genuinely curious what makes you rank Dark Souls so low.
For me it's probably Dark Souls 2 < Demon's souls < Dark Souls 3 < Dark Souls < Sekiro < Elden Ring < Bloodborne, but honestly most of those are interchangeable, except for ranking DS2 as the lowest.

I had a poo poo day today so I caved and upgraded my ps plus essential to extra. There were quite a few games that I would like to play and hadn't gotten round to yet that made it seem worth it to me.

Returnal, ghosts of tsushima, miles morales, death stranding and Guardians of the galaxy are coming up.

I'm pretty bad at returnal it turns out.

Finished returnal recently, playing Ghosts of Tsushima and just started Yakuza: Like a dragon.

PS+ extra remains good (for me).
