Since the PS5 was released last November, players have taken to social media to share stories about DualSense drift. One user reported the issue 10 days after receiving their PS5, stating they tried every possible fix—power-cycling the console, turning Bluetooth on and off, resetting the controller, and, finally, charging it fully overnight—to no avail.

Once I eventually made it through to a person, I was told that DualSense drift is covered under warranty. You will, however, have to pay for shipping your controller to a Sony repair center—a cost that varies based on a number of factors, including location and the total weight of your package—but Sony apparently covers the return shipping. No recoup on whatever you pay for that first shipping label.

We’re back at the point of the ps5 not having much going for it. People even admitting the exclusives aren’t that good in the ps thread.

I hope there’s some good news soon as I’ve grown quite fond of you guys.
 
I just wish I could actually buy the fecking thing so I could say something about it. At this rate I'll be going to concerts again before I get a PS5.

They might have expandable SSD in the next year.
 
Makes sense we have reports of stick drift on the DS5 and not the Xbox controller. Can't get stick drift if there ain't any games to play.

Great post. Also Xbox’s controller is so great people go and spend £150 on a new controller as soon as they’ve bought the console.

I'm bored of the fanboy shite now :lol: was funny for about a week.

Now it's just a yawnfest.

Just give us actual news and gameplay footage and stuff.

All you going through 20 articles to find one bad article about something to do with the console you're not in love with.

Great post.
 
Had a interesting discussion with a hardcore PS fan. He told me his son is crying because of the Ratchet price. He could get gamepass for 6 months, which would cost £50 and he would get countless hours of entertainment compared to the 7 or 8 that Ratchet would offer. He compared Sony to the Torys on how they pricing people out of gaming and praised how MS are making it affordable for everyone.

every PS5 game is £70 RRP why the sudden outrage been known for ages, unless its a cross gen game or more of a dlc.

R&C always has been and always will be a mediocre game, mainly for kids so shouldn't be a full priced game tbh. It's the same kinda category as Halo or Gears of War.
 
The last one was priced lower than usual. Wonder what the deal is with this one?

Interesting. I've said before but the PS4's success means Sony don't have to try to win people over like Microsoft are doing now. It could well bite them in the butt long-term.

The arrogance worries me too, but it's earned for a reason as they consistently produce games worth buying into their consoles. Sony realised a long time ago that it's the games that count.

MS have again produced the hardware but need some games. They've made some great moves in the developers they've bought but now need to start rolling out the games to earn some trust as hardware means nothing to the vast majority who want to just play, Their big early Xbox mistake was not carrying on with the money they spent on developers years ago (Lost Odyssey, Viva Pinata etc) as they need to increase the variety of franchises. It's MS's fault they now have to build from scratch to get some trust.

Viva Pinata - I'd love a sequel to that
