Playing it on PC. So far it has felt almost like a point and click game with old school Resident Evil tank movement, fixed cameras and everything. Very archaic. Nice atmosphere and intriguing setting though.

When are we gonna get another Power Stone?
This nostalgia for days gone by is underpinning much about the collective conscious of the PS5 boys.
Yep.
But then this brainless circle of not learning from the mistake of believing all the trash M$ press releases every single time and thinking "this gen is our gen 'la!" only to realise half way through that nothing actually has changed once again underpins the collective conscious of the Xboner boys.
You morons are firmly in this together. You need each other.
There is no tank movement though, actually, tank movement would be a better choice for the game because of changing camera angles where you always have to adapt to direction changes.
I am loving the game though, am old school Resident Evil/Silent Hill fan so The Medium was right up my alley.
Yeah you're right it's just the fixed cameras without the thank movement. It's been so long I played a game with actual tank controls I almost forgot how they worked. All the way back to the original Resident Evil 3, I think.
One of the benefits of having a browser is that you can watch streaming websites on the TV.. it may come in handy if you want to watch certain things that may or may not be sports related.
this is our year!
Great post

Can’t you already do that? I’ve played my xbox one on my iPad and phone before?
I mean from "the cloud" (TM). No hardware...
Can already do that on android, I think for ios they are working on a browser solution due to Apple being annoying.
I tried it though and it was pretty unreliable.
Can you do it on PC then?
Don't think so.
Why the fcuk not? Is that coming in the future then?
Yeah
So back to the original question. How long @Alock1?
It's in beta right now I think. Should be released to all in the summer.
Cloud streaming to android with no console has been doable since September (much earlier if you include beta)
Ok cool.

Faster download speeds on PS5 as well. And my fan doesn't make any noise at all.
I get over 200mbits on my xbox nornally. The lame thing is if you've got a game open it throttles to 20 which the PS5 doesn't do AFAIK.
Both are quicker than last gen, haven't noticed a difference in download speed when idle but if you're playing a game PS5 is miles ahead. The Xbox is so frustrating, even if you're playing an offline game your download speed is throttled it's so annoying.
That is weird. Most of the time you like to play games while another one is downloading in the background.
Was going to say - my Xbox download hits my 150 cap with ease.
Either it's an oversight or to do with the PS5's SSD being better.
True, I've not seen a setting around that. BTW is there a way to throttle the downloads on the X in general? I've not had a problem with download speeds, but I've noticed it is a bandwidth hog.
Exactly mate it does my head in! One of the worst things about the Xbox. I've got a quick connection so Im loose with my hard drive and constantly downloading things to try for 30 before downloading something else.
to be fair Microsoft probably weren't expecting people to actually play any games whilst downloading seeing as there are no good ones.
Harsh but true. Great post.
Interesting to see Control Ultimate edition is nearly 50% smaller on PS5 thanks to the compression used compared to the series X version.
Same game, same assets nice little perk.
Same game, same assets nice little perk.
That is good.
Needed mind, considering the pretty shit memory setup of PS5 at launch (not just less memory but needing 100gb spare just to play PS4 games - what a joke). In the long run I'd take the compression though if that sort of difference becomes a standard thing (I'm guessing not to the extent of 50% but maybe 30%)
