Wow wasn't expecting that...was highly doubtful I was going to get it anyway as I got burnt out on star field before I even finished the main game...and while I thought the main game was great for what it was ..it would of been immense if it came out 10 years ago ...it's just that it's the same old formula..and I've had my fill after playing so much fallout in the past
Exactly the returns are so diminishing...I find it laughably sad the people pretending there is some real noticeable difference...I get that it's easy to get swept up in it all..and think you need one....I was contemplating it before hand even though in back of my mind i knew damn well i wouldnt see or notice a difference from my base ps5....it's why its probably a blessing in disguise they priced it so ridiculously...not a chance I will even impulse buy it for that rip off price
Didn't bother getting it on playstation...doubt il ever play it now...to many games to play...and didn't have the must play kind of reviews to make me jump in
Just completely given up on doing any rewards...and I used to do them all religiously daily....just couldn't be arsed when they starting massively nerfing it....putting cool down on searches etc
@OldGamer999 Just pointing out if you consider god of war Ragnarok the kind of top tier game you want....and that was on the PS4....the series s is more powerful...so it's not a hardware issue to get the games you want
And yes I do think the god of war series(reboot) is one of the best ...but that's mainly cause of the story telling etc....i also think alot of the so called great ps exclusives are very overhyped
I would say the last gears of war are up there in terms of what makes the best ps exclusives considered so great...and thats coming from someone who isn't a massive gears fan
@OldGamer999 GoW:R is on the PS4 aswell though so ...if you want a game of that quality...then you cant say the power of the s is holding xbox back in that regard lol
@Gloki_junior That sucks ..I pre ordered mine through 3rd party for £36 and have also used the trial...so feel I've got a fairly good deal compared to the people paying £90 for the ultimate edition to play a week early lol
I literally just expect your typical Bethesda game...with slightly better graphics....which I am very burnt out on....don't really know what else they can do though ...
Personally much prefer fallout....and even when that comes out....I still expect it to be the same old story ...same old slightly better looking
@GuyinPA75 How is the series s a disaster? Maybe in the eyes of graphic nerds etc etc....but it's ideal for the average Joe who isn't a hardcore gamer ..my 2 kids and missus all have a series s each and are very happy with it...everyone in family gets to play on there own machine....something that defo wouldn't of happened if there was no cheaper option like the s
Hope we get an Xbox handheld soon....missus got me a ps portal and I play alot of games I probably wouldn't have because of it....just nice to sit in bed with it playing certain games
@themightyant I should hope it's the best place to play it....but for £700 for most likely marginal improvements.... ludicrous to basically get a console just for one game ...one game we know will most likely be on the ps6 and ps7 lol
Just really don't see the point in getting one...and I won't at that price....people saying they are getting it for GTA 6....but GTA 6 will be CPU heavy and the pro has the same CPU as base ps5...so all seems rather pointless....i will just wait for the ps6 and Xbox handheld if they release one
I prefer playing my playstation on my portal now so I ain't bothering with the pro....i am done with being told how much better some product is by dweebs on the internet...only for me to be sat there pulling my hair out trying to notice a difference.. .
I should hope for £700 the pro would be better ...even still it's going to the kinda better that we dont know about unless we are told by digital foundry
The price is ludicrous when you have to pay an extra £100 on top for a disc drive ...all so you can get a few extra blades of grass etc etc....
Even if you haven't upgraded to a ps5 yet ...it's totally Illogical to fork out that much for the pro...guess the base digital for half the price
I have a ps5 and I was on the fence about getting the pro...my main incentive was I'd give one my kids my ps5 and id have the pro..and then if there's any co op games like Helldivers we could play together...but fudge that ..wasn't sure id even of done that if it cost £500 nvm £700
@Fiendish-Beaver Erm what's the point in pre ordering them then ...would make alot more sense if you are waiting untill games are fully patched etc ...to buy the game then when it's no doubt cheaper ...not pre it at its most expensive
Feels alot longer ago to me....I put in quite a fair chunk of time into it and was enjoying it....but I barely touched the main storyline and got burnt out...and now I CBA to return to it lol
Downloaded this on ps....did plan to give it a go....will have to give it a go tonight after work...or il probably never play it....with Astrobot and Space Marine releasing
Might give this one a try.....seems like something I might enjoy if I give it a real go....only issue being got Astro coming tomorrow...and Space Marine 2 on Monday lol
Glad they are atleast trying to shake things up a bit with omnimovement ......will I probably use all the new things nope ...but defo will be using the dive etc
Didn't play much of mw3 ...had a rest ...will give this one a go
Xbox has been there three days ..and nothing remotely exciting has been announced ..I'm glad I didn't waste my data watching any of this show at work...only half decent thing Ive noticed is the next sniper elite coming to gamepass
Just release a dodgy 60 FPS like most games do... so the same people moaning can then moan I would have just preferred a stable lower fps...I bet half the people complaining wouldnt even notice if a game released pretending to be 60fps...then later down the line where told it was actually only 30
Would I like a 60 FPS sure....but first and foremost I just want a stable game that feels decent to play...not a 60 FPS mode that jumps all over the place whenever things get abit crowded
@ChopstickPhilly it's blatantly not a basic feature though isit lmao
Would it be nice to have a 60 FPS option ...sure but the people who act like it's the end of the world....well makes me wonder what thier life is like that they get so upset/angry that a computer game doesn't have the precious 60fps
Tbh come the next Xbox and playstation...I will most likely be picking up the playstation first and foremost ...simply because it's the logical option going forward by the looks of things....and I have always been an Xbox guy since the 360...didn't own a PS3 or ps4...have 4 series consoles in my house ATM.....but whats point if all the xbox games are going to go to ps....the way things are going may aswell get all ps consoles next gen
Xbox finally got into a position where they will be able to release exclusives on a constant basis ...and it's like some mong from higher up who is clueless when it comes to gaming decided to take the reigns and say yeah now we are in a position to compete on the exclusive front after years trying to get here .. all our games our going to playstation.......I own both consoles and prefer Xbox but seems pretty pointless to get any future xbox consoles
