I booted up a bit of Astrobot for the first time in a while tonight, and I’m not exaggerating when I’d say it’s low key one of the most delightful games ever made. It’s up there with Bloodborne and The Last Guardian as the three great PS4 exclusives.

I find the console theme of the PS5 ‘sequel’ quite odd, but if it’s half as good as the original game it’ll be a very nice freebie.

Can someone explain what I’m missing here about this feature that’s different to the atmos feature say on Xbox or windows that’s been around for a few years? Pretty sure it was on PS4 too but I actually didn’t use a headset with ps4(multiplayer games for me were on x1x)
In the likes of PUBG the feature was great for detecting exact location of footsteps etc.

Is this tempest thing just the Ray tracing being used for audio to be more accurate? In the event talk he was on about profile of ear etc but I guess that’s not here yet and called something different?

It's Sonys own type of Atmos, but made specifically with games in mind (I believe). Just another contender in the audio market. The profile of ears is something they hope they can one day do with Tempest, so it'll be a specific profile for you and your headset to get the best experience from Tempest/games. From what I've been reading, most headsets and earphones will get some example of it, but to get the "best" (according to Sony) experience, the Pulse 3D headset is required.

To be honest, I'm more excited about the audio and tactile feedback than the games! You can make the most realistic looking game out there, but I think Sony are on the right track in knowing that you need as many different types of feedback to make a game truly immersive. I can't wait to see what Sony Santa Monica do with it with the next God of War, or even TLOU (haven't played 2 yet, so will wait for the inevitable PS5 version with the audio/feedback).

And by compatible headsets, I assume they mean anything with a 3.5mm jack!

It's not relevant. It's an Xbox.

They should have planned ahead. They knew they were launching this console years ago. Tut tut.

Same here but I only have 1080p so more than adequate.

Are you referring to the 3D Pulse Headset? Or the PS5 box?

As mentioned the DualSense has a built-in mic. The Pulse has two mics.

That's my point PS5 outdated compared to PC already but I won't have the big bucks needed to afford that PC for a long time And it's going to be big bucks as it looks like this gen of PC is going to require a completely rebuild rather than just replacing the GPU. So I won't be beating a PS5 in performance anytime soon!

Well you will probably be getting a more consistent 1080p than the PS5, swings and roundabouts.

I am glad they are putting more effort into sound design, but virtual surround sound from a TV (and most soundbars) is complete and total horse****
