    Is Fallout 76 a bargain game considering there is a new update on the way.
    I'm not sure whether to take a punt on it and and what price would it be good value .

    Unless they are paying you to play, don't, just don't.

    Caved and bought it, look forward to the frustration.

    Forgot to add sekiro to that mix above. Have to say that it was my favourite just pipping BB

    GT Sport is very good. If you like rallying, the Dirt Rally games are excellent.

    Surprised the play store isn't doing a massive sale, have a real captive audience who are likely to buy a few games at a go so seems a perfect time to have a huge one especially with ps5 likely to be released later on in year (likely due to Covid).

    People probably don't need an extra push to buy that game they were looking at. It's like the supermarkets I'm pretty sure they won't be doing any buy one get one frees

    I know what you mean with shops closing but I cant be the only one struggling to justify buying a game or two at full price that can't be sold on and when a ps5 could be out later in year.

    Anyone have any ideas of where to get a good value PlayStation?

    Decided today (Obviously way too late) That it might keep me occupied while I’m out of work and the misses isn’t... Alas everywhere seems to be sold out.

    I probably won’t use it after this period so I don’t want a 1TB or a PRO etc.

    Any idea where is the cheapest I can get a physical copy of FIFA 20? Looked in the usual places thinking it would be around €40 at this stage but surprised to see it going for €60 still.

    Is Play TV still a thing? I remember reading about it when the PS4 first came out, some little box thing you could hook up to another TV and you could play your PS4 from another room via streaming. Was thinking of getting one

    It's end of life Max!
    If you can find one, it'll still work, but it's not actively made/sold any more as far as I know!!

    CEX seem to have a few at an awful price! :)

    https://ie.webuy.com/product-detail?id=711719818236&categoryName=microconsoles&superCatName=gaming&title=playstation-tv

    Got mine for €40/50 new.

    Might dig mine out and see if it works any better since I got Google WiFi system.in. otherwise I'll be off to CEX at that price

    If you can, try hook it up with ethernet.
    Should run great then!
    Unfortunately, the WiFi is 2.4Ghz I think, which is not great for anything outside the same room :)

    2.4GHz actually has better range than 5GHz. Speeds are lower though.

    Maybe powerline adapters would be useful? They're basically the equivalent of a super-long ethernet cable.
    I use them anywhere in the house where the wifi signal is too weak.

    The best price unfortunately is to not buy them. PS+ is very expensive when getting only getting 1 month(€9) or 3 months(€25), a full year is €60 but can be gotten for €50 on http://instant-gaming.com .

    If it helps, hopefully, the devs will have a PS5 update for games. Your PS4 games should (and the vast majority will) work with the 5 and most will be able to take advantage of the extra power too.

    Ugh, mesh systems. They're handy, unless things go wrong. Worked for a company selling IP security cams with motion activation and a subscription, they just did not work properly with mesh networks. And as Google Wi-Fi won't let you separate the bands (it's dual band, all the time) it can cause issues with devices that can connect to both, saw a lot of floating between bands which caused issues.

    I don't like mesh networks as they currently are. Hopefully with Wi-Fi 6 and upgraded MU-MIMO all problems will be sorted!

    I had a collection of games on the PSPrices website but it seems to have removed most of them, now I only have 5 on it.

    Anyone else have this issue?

    Also, Days Gone down to 23 euro for PS+, might bite at that price. Could be a decent game given the current situation.

    I finished it out recently, gorgeous looking game and there is fun to be had but I found alot of the cut scenes draaaaaaged on way too long. Its also very repetitive. Go here, collect this / kill that, go back, rinse and repeat. Still I did enjoy it for the most part.
