Had a little incident with the PS5 earlier. I was on Demons Souls and the PS5 just "went off" - as though someone had pulled the plug.

I honestly didn't expect it to switch back on. But it did, and went into system restore. Then Demons Souls wouldn't boot until I restarted the machine again. Very worrying!
 
That's the plat done for spider Man miles Morales, 18 hours in total according to time on PS5.

Astro was also 100% so time to move onto sackboy although I doubt I'll plat that due to mostly multi player stuff that isn't possible yet
 
Is this your PS5?

If true, what chemical in candles would cause this I wonder.

Yeah, this is mine. I’ll get better photos in the morning and see if I can clean it off. A duster isn’t working.

No idea unfortunately but there’s a fair few people on Reddit with the same issue, and they all seem to agree it’s the candle at fault. Of course I’m happy for this theory to be corrected!

Mrs has candles on every day, not noticed anything like that on mine, can't see how a candle would do that either :s

Me neither but it’s the prevailing theory on Reddit.
 
I've been close on two occasions got 93 combo last night but ran out of enemies :/

Prior to that got to 87 but lost it due to miss timing a Dodge

I managed to cheese it tonight and get 100 hit combo.

My last trophy for platinum was actually one of the crime side bonuses, an annoying one where you have to stop the stolen car without taking any damage. Took a few goes but that's my first platinum so quite chuffed.

Details below on how I did the combo.

Go to any Roxxon base where you should have enemies who can block, wipe out everyone barring a single shield dude. Then just battle this guy one on one but keep using dodge to slide between his legs, that counts to the combo, so literally just hit square, circle, square, circle, etc. After about 5 minutes you should be at 100 and the trophy will pop.

I thought maybe just some photo posted online so could be anything, like the overblown smoking Series Xs, but thanks for clarifying.

That is weird, hopefully it comes off mate. Suppose that's a positive about the removable panels, at least you might be able to send back to Sony for a replacement.
 
It got delivered at 10am on Friday. I forgot to mention that it was a home delivery and not a store collection.

I guess I was lucky judging by other people's experiences.

Picked mine up Saturday morning from Meadowhall tightly clutching it walking through the car park back to my car.

I got the 100 combo yesterday when I got the plat but I did it at the combat challenge mission.

Oddly enough the stolen car thing took me 5 attempts to nail it!

I had this! Except I'd just booted up AC: Valhalla. Loaded in to the game, ran out of a hut and BAM. Just powered off. Took it a few minutes to find its feet and rebuild database etc, very worrying.

Just gave it a clean down, and banned the missus from candles for a few weeks! :D (If that is indeed the issue here).

The PS logo side has come clean a charm (used a slightly damp microfiber), the other side - whilst improved - is leaving a little bit to be desired!

Hopefully Sony release some 1st party panels...

I would tell your missus to do a bit of house cleaning.
