No doubting its a big chunk of a console but reading nothing but positives on the controller is good news.

Want to know why you can't find a PS5 to preorder?




Meanwhile the MS dweebs haven't managed to sell even a single PS5

Guessing the Ireland Argos ps5 will be available on the day. Since there’s no pre order on the site.

True, Hermes would currently be playing football with your parcel.

  • Warp-speed load times: Explore the universe instantly with 5-10x reduction in loading times. On PS5, you can warp from solar system to solar system in an instant.

This was one of my main annoyances with the game. Assumed this would be the case on PS5 with the SSD.

:drool:

This news has now completely made me forget the cyberpunk delay. 4K 60fps on this game on day one will be magical.

Not played NMS since it's launch. It was sucha disappointment that after a week i traded it in and bought Elite Dangerous which was actually fun.

I might give it another go since it's always cheap.

I'm glad they're going to keep going with this even though I keep starting it and stopping it. Each iteration feels more complete than the last and it could, eventually, be a great game.

:lol: I thought this while looking at this thread yesterday. Thankfully I have resisted watching any 'unpacking' videos so far and reckon I could well manage to get to the end of my life without succumbing to this unusual and rather sad phenomenon.

I'd wait a bit more. I started playing it again a couple of weeks ago, it's a massive improvement on it's launch version but still the same and after I'd enjoyed the improved graphics, space stations etc I still ground to a halt.

If they can keep adding to it, there's an incredible game in there so I'm putting it back into storage to see what happens next year.

It's so fecking weird.

How did you spend late-stage capitalism? "I spent it hunched over a tiny screen in a dark room during a pandemic watching Americans open the things I wanted."

Not only is it some weird, next-level cuckoldry for the aspirational generation but it also ruins their own eventual unboxing.

This is the one PS5 gadget that hasn't tempted me, though im sure it will be useful for some
Yeah I did hold off but then realised how much of a faff it’s been using the DS on the PS4 all these years.
