Poll: *The Official PlayStation (PS5/PS5 Pro) Thread*

[Mint8]

To be honest up graded to the Pro so my cat could have her own PS5.

I don't have a daughter, but if I did she would probably have had my PS5, so I'm just gullible and like having expensive things

PS5 pro is a lot cheaper than having a daughter bro.

I caved and bought the Pro. Didn't think I would, but the GT7 PSVR2 'patch' started it rolling, and the thought of how future games next year (GTA 6 ?) will absolutely take advantage, just completed the 'logic'.

I don't think it's worth it as an upgrade really at the moment, but I have faith and my daughter now has her own (non-pro) PS5

This was my logic. Thankfully i didn’t have one, so as a new buyer I’m ok with that.

Just bought a quest 3, but tempted by psvr for gt7

WiFi on my Pro has gone again, turned it on from resting and immediately started to spam me with messages that it was failing to connect to WiFi etc, restarting the Pro/restarting the router didn't resolve it I ended up needing forgot the network and reconnect it. Reading on Reddit it appears a few others are having the same issue and it may be a fault in the firmware as it's occurring on replacement Pro's as well.

Anyone looking forward to path of exile 2 ? I played the first but bounced off it pretty early on.

Looking to give the second a real chance.

Just woke up my PS5 to be greeted by a green screen, it's only a week or so old, is just something that happens occasionally or is it going to have issues?

Holding the power button down seemed to solve it for now

Yup, but will be playing on PC for the early access. At full launch I'll play between PC and console since it will support crossplay/saves.

Not experienced any quirks yet. So long as a proper power off / reset fixes the problem I wouldn't worry too much.

My First Gran Turismo is out Haven't played these games since the 2nd one!

Paid £20 for early access to Poe2. Looking forward to it. Don’t think I’ll bother tonight because the servers will be hammered. I’ve got all day tomorrow provided I’m not too hungover.

Going to give it a go tonight, but if I can't login I'm just going to eat pizza instead.

From what I’ve seen, it’s a leap beyond what D4 was. Excited ! I enjoyed D4..but once it was over, it was like, what now ? The end game was not good.

 

[Relentless81]

Anyone recommend an over ear headset that you use for music via Bluetooth but also has a 3.5mm jack for use with the portal and sounds decent?

I'm looking at the sound core space one at the moment but would be nice to go off of a recommendation

Yeah, this looks to have far more depth / end game. Plus, in terms of visuals and presentation it appears to have caught up with the Diablo franchise. Bottomline, there is probably nothing left that Blizzard / Diablo does better now.

Bored of normal ps5, wouldn't want an over priced slight upgrade

 

[KraniX]

Picked up Stellar Blade earlier this week, not had a lot of time to play so only a couple hours in.

My question is does it get better? At the moment I'm not very impressed, feels quite janky to control, you can explore a bit but not really much freedom.

The english voices are pretty bad, don't match the characters at all, even Zelda from BotW delivers her lines better than Eve.

 

[rp2000]

I started to play BlacOps6 online/co-op on PS5, but all the chat audio is coming out of the controller speakers, and I have headphones on so don't hear it.

Is there any way to make chat audio come through the TV like game audio does? My Headphones are BT to the TV, so I thought I could hear game and chat audio through that and then the other party hears my voice via the in built mic on the Dualsense controller. Not even sure if it is game specific or a PS5 issue. I am certain I heard the other players in my headphones when I played the other zombies maps last week, so it could be a setting I've fiddled with...

I started this last weekend, only around an hour in and I feel the same. It hasn't grabbed me like Nier Replicant did, feels like a Temu/AliExpress version.

 

[Earth[Tera].bin]

It does get better once the combat opens up. I was of a similar mind when I played it, felt a bit generic for first hour or so few hours in I couldn't get enough and in the end I really enjoyed it.
