If you have a iPhone probably, personally I've been trying for last few days on Android and there's too many issues for me, can't use controller with official app, so I install chiaki and while quality is more then good enough controller isn't mapping correctly, and I can't buy the PSplay app due to issues with my Google account, meanwhile apple official app doesn't have these problems from what I've heard

You say buy the app but I assume it's free. I've not actually used it on my phone, but it works pretty good on my pc.

The official app is, but as I said you can't use controllers with it, neither dualsense or stuff like razer kishi, there's a £5 app called PSPlay which is supposed to be miles better but unfortunately can't test it myself

Hey guys. Starting to think about getting a PS5 to upgrade our PS4 Pro though it's not essential at the moment. Are there any news if there will be an updated PS5 ie Pro like they did with PS4? There seem to be some rumours about it but do you think it's likely?

It's highly likely I recommend looking at Redtech gaming on YouTube for leaked news on ps5 pro. Digital Foundry have also released a youtube video about ps5 pro leaked specs. Earliest release is probably not until Xmas next year and more likely to be even later.

I love people paying a premium price for a broken game, people paying less get a better experience...:cry:

Pretty much, generally never pre order digital games for obvious reasons, but lack of physical release and how good game looked sold me on it

Larian really had no need to stoop this low, they have made a sht ton of money. It's not like they have 'evil' investors to answer too.

I've pre ordered the base game so will wait until later in the week, I'm looking forward to this - not my normal genre but it just looks so good I had to try it.

How strange. I was thinking how you would connect a controller (I assume Bluetooth), but not sure why the official app won't support them.
 
One thing I really appreciate with the PS5 is both the lower heat output and the noise compared to the PS4 - but also compared to my PC (in terms of heat, my PC is also nice and quiet).

The PS5 is whisper quiet in comparison to the jet engine PS4 which is brilliant, I genuinely considered putting my PS4 in a different room at times and running a longer cable...

In terms of the heat output, my PC is great for airflow but it basically means every bit of heat is exhausted out of the top/back/everywhere so the room I'm in gets very toasty. It's been nice and sunny here - and Saturday evening I was playing some Starfield and I just kept getting warmer and warmer. Ended up calling it a day after about 1h30 of playing - then last night I was playing some F1 23 on my PS5 and the difference was actually noticeable.

I can feel that it's warm out the back of the PS5 but the amount of heat being pushed out compared to my PC is massively reduced, made it much more pleasant to sit and play a few races in the same amount of time playing.

I'm going to investigate, as currently my son plays on the laptop if the TV is in use, but that requires setting up each time. If I can do it on android it would be so much easier. I'll have a play and report back.

Like I said if you can buy PSPlay app it should be perfect
 
I've preordered the Portal - it's got a lot of hate, but I'll use it a lot for playing in different rooms/garden or if the missus is watching TV or playing PS4/Switch. I like that it's self-contained with PS5 controller built in, rather than faffing with a mobile and seperate pad.
A Vita 2 would have been nicer, but that's never gonna happen!

I didn't think pre order was still possible on it
