Ratchet & Clank! I think that's in the extra catalogue, visually stunning game.
Incredible game. One of many few I’ve actually played all the way to the end plus the DLC.
Was actually a bit sad when it ended.

Flogging the old stock before the new Slim comes. Plus their internal sales figures are a bit low so they want to get those numbers up, presumably. More consoles sold = more people spending on PS+ and things.
Having owned a PS4 Pro I find it hard to be excited about the prospect of a PS5 Pro at this point. It offered relatively little over a base PS4 and many games were never updated to take advantage of the extra power available. Plus the price is likely to be obscene this time round.
That's because the PS5 got a die shrink last year which already reduced the heat and power consumption, the heatsinks were already much smaller so there'll be no issues there.

With having a new display, I feel compelled to go back and play all the games that I put on the shelf - mainly from the PS4 Pro era. So the likes of Infamous First Light, Mass Effect Andromeda, Assassins Creed Odyssey which I wanted to experience HDR with. Definitely be doing the PS5 stuff as well, of course.
Andromeda isn't even remotely redeemed with HDR lol.

Eh, I thought it was one of the showcase titles for the PS4 Pro launch with HDR and 4K checkerboard?
EDIT: Sorry, misread your post. Not redeemed with HDR as it still is crap.

The AC Odyssey update is brilliant. Played through it all again recently. Origins too.Eh, I thought it was one of the showcase titles for the PS4 Pro launch with HDR and 4K checkerboard?

Lol, well I probably didn't play it enough to give a well constructed opinion but I dropped it very fast. If I recall, I got really annoyed by something really simple at the start like there was no way to compare weapons because they didn't have any stats.

Oh you’re in for an absolute blast if you like AC style games.
I’m currently playing AC: Oddssysy again and I am enjoying it even though I initially found it rather repetitive. So far I’m lv20 and having a great time just causing chaos and hunting mercs on land.
The Greek sun was almost blowing my eyes out on Odyssey and my T.V isn't even that bright.
Starting Robocop tomorrow, it's supposed to be pretty good for what it is.

Got an email from Sony about the new headsets. Very much contemplating the Pulse Explore. Will wait and see how reviews pan out with music from the phone and other non gaming functions but they look decent value to me. Presuming they are as good as they say they are of course!
Wondering why they come with a usb dongle though. Would they not be able to connect bluetooth direct to the PS5 already?

Bluetooth is no good for gaming apparently. It can lag and distort amongst other things so they came up with their own PlayStation Link protocol to alleviate all that.
Soldato
Ah, science! Knew there was a valid reason! Aren't the controllers bluetooth?
If you use non gaming Bluetooth headphones like the Bose you will be asking for a return within 5 minutes dont make that mistake
