You can also bind photo mode to one side of the trackpad to quickly use it also. Lovely stuff

The PS5 ram is cooled the same way the PS4 was, just contact with a emf plate. The PS5 does go a bit further than a plain metal plate.

Chances are there's no need for a firmware update, it's likely built into the current fan temperature/speed curve if the temperatures ever require it. The fan is power-hungry compared to the average PC fan which would be 5-15w (15 being an outlier), the PS4 pro was about 20-25w depending on the model. So you can't really judge how much headroom is there without checking checking it's current usage. The PS5 having a much larger lower RPM fan is the main reason it's so quiet, it could using comparable power to PS4 and still be much quieter.

Why on earth does the ps5 start downloading files which have already been downloaded?.. I booted COD it started downloading a bunch of packs which I already had... I then went to play it today after packs where complete and it started to download them again...

Also I am mind blown by how theirs a 32GB Watch Dogs update or do you have to redownload the ps5 version every day?

Are you sure its an issue with the PS5 and not just the developers releasing unnecessarily large patches?

CoD in particular has a rep for this.

It was literally every campaign pack and multiplayer pack etc... I just deleted the whole lot now and will just play warzone ... The exact same files kept popping up as downloading again when I had completed them all and booted the game

Press the home button again and it’ll bring up the menu options.

And, like a good Metroidvania, push left instead of right to get to the power button quicker

Have Sony Patched the Sleep Mode issue?

Just picked up my Ps5 from Tesco for my son's Christmas present. Can someone please clarify where PS4 games are upgraded, are these the from disc versions or do you have to already have the digital version? My son has NBA21k for the PS4 on disc so if he inserts the disc into the PS5 will there be an option to download the PS5version for free? (Apologies in advance, I'm clueless when it comes to gaming!)

Glad to hear you finally got it - Nice

The amount of crashes I am getting in DIRT 5 is unreal, game needs a patch BIG TIME.

Put in a few hours last night.
Zero crashes somehow. Game is probably just about worth the 40e I paid. Some tracks (mainly the ones with mud) look amazing. The Dual sense can go a little crazy with the tense triggers and crazy rumble but adjusted it.

Anyone order from Smyths and DPD as the courier? Mine has been in the DPD network since 18th November, and I phoned up DPD this morning to do a trace on it. Hopefully its not lost

Dpd are gone to the dogs lately. They have lost a package on me since 11th November and now won’t reply to any emails and fob you off on the phone.

Not saying this has happened to you btw!!

Got mine on launch day from DPD but they kicked the **** out of it. No response to my complaints. Hope it goes better for you.

Since those of us with PS4 discs for Valhalla still can’t upgrade (it’s been a week, seriously Ubisoft) I’ve belted into Days Gone. Can’t believe it wasn’t a success sales-wise. Feels a bit like a zombified AC actually. Loving it. Strongly recommend!

This is what made me not buy it. I was all over this game until I heard there was no upgrade available. Now waiting for CP2077.

Anyone have first hand experience with the controller charging dock?

Yep, I have one here beside me. It's perfect, controllers stop charging/receiving power when they're full. Controllers slot in easily too.

Highly recommended. Well worth 30 quid IMO.

Amazing! I think I'm more excited to play Siege on PS5 then anything else!

Can you check to see it isn't downloading the ps4 version?

Happened to me with a previous game yesterday.

It's frustrating how hard it is to differentiate the files which are named the same. Can only see from the home menu if it's ps5 or ps4

Having a nightmare. My PSN account was hacked a couple Saturday's ago. I got in touch with AIB and had the fraud funds refunded and now Playstation has suspended my account for a chargeback.

When I try to get to the live support chat I get a message saying "This page is only available in UK & Ireland". I'm in Ireland BTW.

Now I've been on hold over 50 minutes. Customer service is a disgrace.

Any working links for the live chat going?

Has anyone noticed there doesn't seem to be a way to delete a character on Demon's Souls?

Essential accessory for me.

Controller Slots in effortlessly after a gaming session and I never have to think about battery charge or controller dying.

Also frees up the front USB slot for charging my headset.

Wait til you start battling hordes. I agree 100%, it’s one of the most under-appreciated games of all time.

PopeVicodin

Has anyone seen this glitch on Demon's Souls?

I'm gonna make one of these characters before they patch the game and leave it on the back-burner until I finish it. If you have the Blueblood Sword you can one shot everyone, including bosses.

I had to just email them and it took 3 working days to get a response. The live chat never worked and no one ever answered when I was on hold. Good luck

Anywhere to get the official charging dock?

My first run-in with a horde was a swarm of them falling out of a train carriage over a bridge, right above me completely out of the blue. Looks incredible!

Platinum done in Astro, felt like that game just deserved it. Absolute joy to get.

Must take a look at the trophy stats.
Be very surprised at this point is Astro platinum is classed as rare
