    So what is the first game that people will be playing on the PS5?

    Will it be a pre-ordered PS5 game? An upgraded PS4 game? Or Astro's Playroom?

    I have three PS5 games pre-ordered and two PS4 games I'm holding off on, but feel like Astro will get thrown on first!! :)

    Will probably try Warframe first, then astro and then start into Spiderman on the Saturday

    Fortnite I say. My 2 smaller boys have me a bit addicted to it now.

    I'm getting the digital PS5, so I might go with Astro just while other games download/install, plus it'll be one of the best examples of the features of the Dualsense.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,563 ✭✭✭Wing126


    Probably Astrobot so I can test out the Dualsense, and then I'll be diving in to Miles Morales!

    Astro first while Miles Morales is getting ready in the background. Sounds like Astro is surprisingly impressive for a pre-installed tech demo, and a good showcase for the Dual Sense.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,243 ✭✭✭✭How Soon Is Now


    Miles Morales after that I have a few options from Ps4 I haven't played yet and the small matter of whether I want Demon Souls or not!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,563 ✭✭✭Wing126


    I hope people haven't gone and bought new SSD's yet....

    Sony confirms PS5 won’t support SSD storage expansion at launch.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,749 ✭✭✭✭wes


    I think I will start thing off with Spider-man. If I get the console delivered before lunch, that is. I will setup and kick off the download and by the time I am done with work, it should be downloaded.

    That’s probably to stop people going mad after assuming their SSD should work when there might not even be fast enough ones on the market yet

    I can't ****ing wait for demon's souls as my first game. I just hope the haptics still function okay after a few sleeps off the wall.

    They need to release a list of compatible drives first anyway.

    Has to be Astrobot's Playroom (and not just to allow download / install of other games). Then AC: Valhalla - have ordered the PS5 version so I won't be tempted to play it on the PS4

    (I'm also planning on one (possibly two) more game(s), but will wait for reviews and first impressions - probably from Godfall, Demons' Souls, Sackboy and Miles Morales.

    They mentioned this in the tech talk that drives would come after launch.

    God idea saying it right before launch so people don't make the mistake. Fair play


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,961 ✭✭✭markcahill1985


    None of the launch titles are doing it for me. Ill be starting with days gone or god of war before cyberpunk. Which would ye recommend? Have played neither.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,243 ✭✭✭✭How Soon Is Now


    Wonder how much of an issue storage is going to be with these new machines?


    The fact where been given a good amount less on PlayStation and Xbox then what was advertised originally plus the fact the expandable storage is either not available yet or not exactly cheap.


    It remains to be seen how big games will be going forward but its gonna sting you sooner rather then later. Especially with games that have a lot of updates etc.

    God of War! I am raging i waited so long to actually play it! Really really great game though one of the best for the PS4.

    Both absolutely class for very different reasons. I know the majority prefer gow and I'm looking forward to my 2nd playthrough in that bit I'll definitely be giving days gone a spin first from the ps plus collection.

    Has to be God of War. Easily my favourite game of the generation.

    Does anyone know anything about WRC 9 for the PS5. It says it’s mentioned to be launched on the 19th for the PS5 but no where bar Amazon seems to be stocking it. Just trying to decide whether to get that or DIRT 5.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,179 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Astro. May as well give the controller a test drive


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,319 ✭✭✭padair


    Astro, then gonna hit up all of the ps4 games in the ps collection from the last 4 years :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 411 ✭✭Evilbart


    Gonna try Astro first while Demon souls is downloading and will also grab the new COD for multiplayer with friends at the weekends.Maybe Assassins creed Valhalla but probably won’t get time to play that so might hold off until the new year on that one.Never played Days Gone so will definitely grab that for free on PS plus and that should easily keep me going until Cyberpunk.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,527 ✭✭✭Mr Crispy


    My current schedule is;

    Astro -> OG Spidey -> Demon's Souls -> Miles

    Saw this is an argos catalogue earlier, might be of interest to some. Not sure if accessories are going live 12th or 18th

    Don’t know what launch/in around launch game to buy with the ps5, what’s everyone else going with?

    On the 19th I'm gonna start out with the tutorial and first section of Demon's Souls, then have a go of Astrobot before spending the subsequent 10 hours playing Star Wars Squadrons. I sold my PS4 before it came out and I cannot ****ing wait to give it a go.

    Demon's Souls is probably the show stopper for the system, but the series is an acquired taste. Spiderman MM is a safe bet, if you haven't played the original you get a remastered version with the Ultimate Edition of MM.
