I take it there's quite a lot on the horizon. I remember when the PS4 came out there was loads of choice Yeah I've been a bit surprised at how sparse the next gen exclusives have been. Second the spiderman recommendation. That's a good wee game to get you appreciating the slight changes. 3 minutes ago, 19QOS19 said: 17 hours ago, SANTAN said: I'd recommend Resident Evil Village for starters. What sort of games are you into? I really enjoyed playing AC Valhalla and was awestruck at the nice graphics but not really a game everyone would like. Astros playroom is essential, it's free but is a brilliant wee introduction type game for the new controller. When does Valhalla get going? Couple of hours in and still finding my feet. I'm still on the original island though just gathering gold and materials (not sure if this is worth doing?) until I get hold of the controls. Ahaha that's a good question! I had just got off the back of watching Vikings so I was fully ready for the game and everything about it so I actually 100% every collectable and gold on the starter island but you don't really need to, the main storyline deffo opens up after you go to England. That's when I had the most fun and I'd imagine most folk would get sucked in. -3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well worth a watch. Just remember to cancel auto renew as Apple are the devil and giving them money is stupid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oystercatcher Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 I went into my local game store yesterday, big sign up, "Ask us about our PS5 deals" so I did. They still don't have any in stock and don't know when they are coming in, i was told to check twitter, My answer of, I don't have twitter was met with a blank look. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mythic Quest is excellent, better than Ted Lasso which is also good. Physical is also excellent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Game had stock online yesterday and it sold out in no time at all, Argos had it on Tuesday, but only in certain postcode areas *edit, Very had a shitload of them too at the start of the week, everywhere is rightly one per customers, but like big concert tickets folk seem to be able to buy more than one, ebay is awash with people taking the piss.

NotThePars Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 PS5 has had a system update which, as far as I can see, has added a little icon detailing if a game is native PS5 or PS4. It's also wiped a load of my game updates and attempted to download non-upgraded versions of games I have. This console is a bit of a shambles. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noticed mine had downloaded a load of PS4 versions of PS5 games I own too. However I've just got Deathloop installed so lets see how that is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me know how you find it that’s a game I’m definitely thinking about purchasing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

well fan for life Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Finished Deathloop last night. It's a good game but definitely took a bit of time to get used to. If you pick it up try and just pick a visionary lead and follow it until it's completed before moving on to the next one. I was jumping about too much to begin with and wondering what the f**k was going on. Solid 7/10 overall I'd say. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
placidcasual Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 I've got an invite to purchase a ps5 from Sony Direct on Friday. Am I likely to pick one up or is it going to be a case of hundreds of thousands going for a couple of hundred consoles? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherrif John Bunnell Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 The Series X briefly showed as being available for collection at Inverness Argos on Monday, but is now showing as unavailable again. Forza Horizon 5 still plays great on my One X, so I'm happy to hang fire until the Series X is more easily available. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 It's remarkable that the best time to grab either console from what I can see was early December of last year. That was the only time I could recall that you could join the queues after they opened and still snag a console. My PS5 has gotten better performance wise after a ropey start with failing to work on older TVs and frequently crashing but it's been fine since the new updates came through. The Xbox has been broadly fine as well although there is clearly an issue with the disc drive refusing to read discs unless the console is power cycled. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
