I wonder has this something to do with updates.

I had my first crash earlier when playing demon souls and when I restarted a new game update was ready to be downloaded.

I know black ops just had an update pushed in the last hour aswell.

Just wondering if there is any connection.

Black Ops was crashing for me repeatedly on one of the campaign missions.

Switched off ray tracing, no crashes. Odd.

Was it on break on through mission ? Googling it there it’s not a ps5 issue it’s a cod one . Same thing happening on Xbox series x on same mission as me .

Will be getting my PS 5 this week, but I’ve never really stuck with PlayStation although I’ve had most of them at some stage. I’ve the one x most of my friends are Xbox so stuck with it but felt I was missing out on some exclusive games.

Any recommendations for games?

No it was on Redlight, Greenlight at the first helicopter pad.

Was a reliable crash too.

They do a headset designed specifically for the PS5.I ordered it last week although still waiting on delivery.

If you use this code YELO12 it knocks off 12% bringing the price to €158 so decent price IMO.

Cheers Mate! - Reviews are saying minus the bluetooth feature of the 9x, they're pretty identical otherwise. Dongle also woking with anything with a USB C which is handy!

Super reviews online too - Anyway, just plulled the trigger on the 7P Black Set (white looked poxy IMO). Arriving Monday - Free Shipping...

Honey gave me that code too - but thanks for heads up on it.

FYI
Comparison to Offical Set - Granted PS one is €50 cheaper!

Had anyone played The Pathless? Looks like fun, but hearing nothing about it. Review scores are pretty high. For only €35 it might be worth a punt.

Martha is Dead, thought to be an Xbox Exclusive, has been confirmed for release on PS5.

Supposed to be pretty good

Really appreciating the SSD and how quickly you can get into playing a game.

Had not played Demon's Souls before, despite playing all the others. Plays really smoothly and enjoy the world/level structure.

Just finished my first playthrough and want to start NG+ but I also need to sleep :pac:

Shall be keeping an eye on this one as i really really liked the trailer!

Nearly had a heart attack when I turned on ps5 and it had download beside sackboy which I've nearly fully completed thinking it reset everything.

False alarm as for some reason it was set to ps4 version so just needed to switch it back to ps5 version.

Remember to delete those PS4 versions. I was wondering earlier why so much space was already taken and I went into System Storage and found there was a PS5 and PS4 version of Borderlands 3. The PS4 version was a whopping 90+GB. The PS5 version was 20GB less.

Playing it in between Spider-Man and Bugsnax. Someone else has already linked the SkillUp review that made me buy it and I agree with a lot of what he said. It's really fun trying to master the traversal and exploring the world.

I just finished Bugsnax today, now for the grind to platinum hopefully...

Great game to be fair and probably never would have played if it wasn't free..

That USB-C adapter is obnoxious. If you were to ever use it on PC it would easily block your other ports.

Edit: Hell even if you use it on PS5 it would block your front USB port. Why the hell did they design it like that?

I saw this in a review and agree - I have a charging station so no big deal for me - also I think theres an adapter with it to free up the USB port entrance?

But yes - Very odd choice! Specs and images of PS5 out a while now so very surprised they designed it this way...

Looks very polished alright but vague on details! Very promising though and I love that the darker stuff is being developed.

Gameplay footage below - so be aware if yoiu want to stay 100% safe of details, avoid...!

Buying from Sony applies it to your account, buying from Smyth's gives you a code so you can gift it to people etc

868mb System Software update file available:

system performance improved
Fixed: An issue where users couldn’t download games because only the “Queued for Download” or “View Details” option was displayed was resolved.

The Iron Giant

Still no fix from PlayStation and Ubisoft as it relates to upgrading AC Valhalla or Watch Dogs.

Utterly shambolic to say the least. The mass ignoring of tweets to Ubisoft Support on the issue is not good.
