PS5

I saw that and I'd prefer to buy new 8f I'm honest.
Completely agree.

I forgot that PS5 slims were out now.

Keep an eye out for a cheap one of these.

This one seems ok value considering you get an extra controller and a game too.

I wouldn't mind chopping my digital console in for a disc one, regret getting it to be honest!

Anyone getting the Pro? Seems like a rubbish deal in all honesty, so expensive.

Got mine last week as Very was doing a good deal. Disk version with a game for £430, and they had a £30 off code aswell so paid 400 all in.
Don’t know if it’s still on the deal but think the code was treat30

Nah that's ended now, but I did make use of the smaller code to get the missus AirPods for her birthday (y)

I think I need a new TV before even thinking about a Pro to be honest.

I havnt added any new names for quite a while, wouldn’t mind playing with some of you people depending on game too. So add you PSN id on the thread above I think it’s still stickied.

What I havnt hardly touched which is a great thing is screen share, watch you play and give an overview insight if the game is worth buying or if you need help on a certain part of the game if your stuck

Nice to see the scalpers selling PS5 pro's at a loss on ebay due to them not selling out in the UK. They've still managed to scalp the disc drives though

Could someone clarify something for me, i'm popping over to someones house soon and i don't know the password for the wifi, if i take my ps5 and some ethernet cable and hook it up to the router, could my ps5 get internet connection without entering a password?

Bought a PS4 this week as there are a couple of exclusives I have never played, the load times are painful though.

I'm tempted to get a PS5 again, I sold mine last year but there are some decent deals on now I think (£390 for a slim disc from Argos).

I've read online that once PS+ has lapsed for 6 months you might lose your saves, has anyone had a big gap and they've been ok? My PS+ only lapsed 7 months ago, be a bit gutted if I have lost them but I don't think there's any way to check they are there without subscribing again.

I didn’t renew my ps+ for a fair few months but I can’t remember for how long, was a lot of months though. I renewed it last december and I’ve cancelled it again from auto renew hoping some deals come about . i didn’t have any issues about the saves and not heard of this before.

What sort of games you played in the past and games you look forward to play? I’m not sure if I got you on my list ?

Yeh I got you!

Well I got the PS4 to play Detroit, bit niche I know. But I also never really played TLOU and Spiderman so want to play those too.

PS5 wise there aren't a huge number of exclusives that jump out to me, I'd get GT7 again (that's the save I want), Silent Hill 2 remake looks really good too.

I have an XSX so anything cross platform I'd buy for Xbox, the PS would only be for exclusives, of which I'm not sure there really are that many?

I’ve hardly been online myself past year, let alone putting on the PlayStation, have been on a little past week or two , getting back into RDR2 for some videos for the channel. I still got GT7 and I’d like to get back into that but with that game for me when you haven’t played it for a while it takes time to get back into it. Silent Hill 2 , I fancy that when it’s much cheaper, I played the first back in the day , when was it t released on was it a PS2? I got Hogwarts but hardly touched that, I might sell it and put the money to SH2. I haven’t bought any games long time , I just get free games from PS+ . The only physical games I got is, BF4, RDR2, GT7, BF5 and Hogwarts

I liked Hogwarts, completed that when it came out. SH2 is pricey at £55, I think I'd want it physical to trade later but unsure if the price will tank.

Completely agree on GT7, I got my first PS5 when it came out, played it loads and got really into it then went on holiday, came back and never got back into it really as I didn't want to invest time in it again. It's not as pick up and play as old GT games or Forza was, but then when you are into it it's definitely more immersive and addictive.

It's that wonderful time of the year when a lot of the Black Friday deals are out, but the missus John Lewis discount still works (they disallow it on actual Black Friday)

Have regretted getting the digital edition of PS5 for a while to be honest, so managed to cop the disc slim edition today for £350 (y)

Ironically just bought Humanity & Prince of Persia on PS Store too both with 50% off so under £30 for the two, that'll do me a while.

Nice, I have ordered myself the PS5 Disc for collection tomorrow, also grabbed GT7 and Spiderman for under £60 the pair too.

I've seen on eBay completed listing Silent Hill 2 has been going for around £20 until today, presumably because everyone has been buying their PS5s. So going to hold out for that!

PS+ Essential is currently at £47.99 was £59.99 with Black Friday, if anyone is interested. All I’ve had in the past was Essential, has anyone got the Premium pass or Extra, is it worth the extra ££?

I went for the extra, has a number of games on it I wanted to try anyway. Detroit, Life is Strange, Ghost of Tushima, Last Guardian, Uncharted and TLOU 1 off the top of my head.

Seemed a good deal, £75 and used credit from shop to which made it about £66.

I set mine up, installed and updated everything which too ages today, I assume servers are being hammered since everyone has been buying them. Then needed a nap, will get on Spiderman soon though!

I've had extra for a while and there's lots of games on there I'll never have enough time to play.

Is PSVR2 any good? I really want to try it. As mentioned with the missus discount I can get this for a smidge under £300 at the moment... but still feel it's a lot considering there isn't any killer games out for it? The only VR game I really want is Alyx :(

Spiderman 2 is a great little game, I wanted it when it came out as I had my OG PS5 at the time but couldn't justify the price as I wasn't sure I would like it.

Properly addictive, one of those 'just one more thing before i turn it off' sort of game. The world is really cool, looks impressive and controls are nice for swinging.

It's heavily story based, but it's a decent story and well done, keeping me engaged. I do feel I should have started with the first one, and then miles before playing this though.
