Pragmata up for pre-order. Don't want to jinx it,.but at £49.99 it suggests it's possibly going to be a turkey!

Saros, on the other hand is £69.99 and most definitely will not be a turkey!

/Seasonal superlatives.
Just going to go in blind with Saros. In Housemarque we trust. Day 1 for me. I’ll wait on some impressions of Pragmata but it does look like something that I would like.

I don't think the price should be a concern, but I just tried the PC demo and am struggling to understand why it was delayed so much, there doesn't seem to be a whole lot to it.
 
The Disc drive on Amazon
3K+ bought in past month :eek::eek::eek:

6k+ PS5 consoles
1k+ PS5 Pro (But these were sold out very early in the BF sales)
3k+ edge controllers
20k+ Dualsense controllers
Really makes you wonder how many items amazon sell per month all together :eek:

I ordered a pack of A4 printer paper a few months back, pretty sure it said 40k+ sold in the last month.
 
If anyone interested Very uk is still doing some PS5 pro deals

£689 including the Disc Drive
[...]

I wonder if that's basically going to be the new, post-black Friday price at other retailers soon?

During BF I got one from Argos for £569 + £69 disk drive = £638 obvs Argos prices have jumped back up post-BF but I wonder if that pricing from Very is going to be the new norm soon.

You can still get one without the disk drive from playstation for £610:

My VR2 stuff arrived. GT7 is..... SICK

Very tempted to get one of those - I was considering a second hand xbox for a few old exclusives and also enhanced titles that are better than on PS4/PS5 but in the latter case it seems some of the ones I had in mind previously have since had updated PS5 releases.

I hadn't considered it before until I spotted on in members market on here and saw there was a PC adapter too (could be fun to use with elite dangerous) and also hadn't really looked at the range of games available - no man's sky looks tempting too and it looks like the playstation store has one bundled with some call of the mountain game.

I'm quite glad I went with a PS5 Pro now, I may still grab an xbox (maybe a One X to stick discretely under the TV in the lounge), but I'm very tempted to just pull the plug on a PSVR2 now.

I only got the VR as my eldest lad was wanting VR after experiencing it during VR day at school 3 years ago. He kept on going on about it. We kept saying it too much money, nothing good for it, waste of money etc. He told us he wanted to put his xmas and birthday money towards one. Wife and I got one instead and he can play on it at no cost to him. I wasnt really interested in VR until I tried it for the very first time yesterday. I was blown away. GT7 is terrific, literally roller coaster first drop belly feeling on one of the mountain tracks. The boys have experienced the Call of the mountain and love it, I just went through the initial boat ride. Very very cool. I did however, download the starwars galaxy edge game. I was lost for words how you are placed inside this room and touching stuff, opening doors, the whole scale of the thing. Blown away. Even looking out of the ship window to the cargo containers as youre orbiting a planet, its is literally out of this world.

I think will invest in the Aliens game (forgot the name right now), already have GT7, if I like that starwars game after a few more plays, I will probably buy that as its coming off Plus in a few days.

Over all I am impressed

The Star Wars game and Alien Game soud like exactly what I'd want to try with VR along with No Man's Sky, I'd probably get Call of the Mountain and GT7 too.

Very tempted to get one now!

Call of mountain comes with the head set on playstation direct with 100 quid off or something. I got the game/headset bundle and the charging dock for a bit over 300

Edit: £332 for headset and game, plus charging dock. including 5% plus member discount

Divinity 2 has dropped today with PS5/Pro enhancements and it's on sale for 15 quid. Well worth it if you enjoyed BG3 (although it is considerably less cinematic).
 
Am thinking of buying Astro Bot, but it not being enhanced for the PS5 Pro is putting me off

Does anyone know if it is due to be getting a PS5 pro Enhanced update or if there is any difference at all when playing it on a PS5 Pro vs standard PS5

It is enhanced on Pro, it’s just marginal because of how well it already runs on PS5. Moving to PSSR did wonders for sharpening up the image compared to TAA.
 
Astrobot key for the US version is going for 27.99 on loaded: https://www.loaded.com/astro-bot-ps5-us

I bought this for 22.97 back in June and it works fine on a UK PS5 - you just need a valid US PSN account to purchase and download it.
I saw that when i searched around for prices of it..But i don't have a US account
And also worry about using some key sites

Did loaded used to be called Cdkeys :confused:
