    I heard ones talking about that before watching the trailer and the 7 minute gameplay demo and the parts going from one area to another didn't seem too different than going through a tight opening they use to disguise loading in other games. May take a wee bit longer to go through the rifts, but could probably still be done on the PS4.
    Or maybe I missed something.

    Anyway, exclusives are good.
    I really must play a Ratchet & Clank game at some point.

    There's one free in the PS Plus Collection. I gave it an hour with the kids, and it seems like good fun, pretty nice art style for the NPCs etc

    Think that's a remake of the first. I think I have the collection on PS3 as well

    Anyone know how to fix this. When I load the disc I can't play the game but when I click on its downloaded the game three times? I've reset console but could it be the game?

    So just to be clear, you are installing a game from disc and it won't run even though it says its installed?

    Ye,when the disc is inserted it keeps copying and won't let the game play at all. Yet it keeps saying it's installed .

    Make sure you've the right version selected, press the options key on gamer icon or the 3 dots beside the name, and select the different versions just to be sure.

    My PS5 done the old spiderman loop ****e again the other day. When the game is DL and you play something else and go back to it you have to re-install the whole game!

    Absolutely infuriating.

    Do you think Last of Us will get a PS5 upgrade like say God of War?

    It’s rumoured to be on the way, but even without it the game looks glorious on the PS5. It’s a steal at that price.

    IMO it is inevitable, and at this point I expect it to be a much more extensive upgrade than GoW received.

    If it is they will release it as a new game. They did a remastered on the last of us from ps3 to ps4. Maybe this time it will be free but don't hold your breath

    With TLOU Remastered though, PS3 games weren't playable on PS4 as there was no backwards compatibility, plus the remaster included the DLC as standard. So they had to release it as a new game.

    If they did that with TLOU2 they'd be slaughtered because they'd be the outliers, as no one else is doing that. Maybe they'd release a version of it bundled with whatever multiplayer mode is likely coming, but I've no doubt they'd also offer a free straight upgrade for PS4 to PS5 for the base game.

    I 100% expect them to charge for it at this point, I have no problem with that as long as the game gets the kind of upgrades TLOU 1 did, that was an extensive port. If it was just gonna be a quick framerate bump I think they would have done that by now.

    They charged for the upgraded version of Spiderman so I don't see why they wouldn't do that again. Considering the massive upgrades that game received I think I would be OK with it, but they need to make it easier this time.

    If I was to guess I reckon this comes out as a full PS5 game some time this summer with the factions mode included. It will cost 60 quid and there will be a 20 quid upgrade option for PS4 users. If they have a 60 fps 4K mode and a 30 FPS RT mode, with some upgraded textures and dualsense support, I think this would be acceptable.

    So what should I be looking for in terms of external storage? ssd worth the higher price over hdd? Any brands in particular? Thanks

    I wouldn't in a million years be buying an old style spinning disk in 2021, they're slow, fragile and especially when thrown behind a PS5 permanently are susceptible to critical failure as they're very vulnerable to damage while actively reading from disc etc.

    Go for the largest SSD you can afford in a good USB enclosure is my advice.

    Ugreen do a good enclosure that doesn't even need a screwdriver.

    Also SSDs are good for high mileage - I've older ones at home on the go for 10 years that get repurposed and dropped into a laptop etc - They're a good investment into the future.

    No SSD drives have been approved by Sony so hold off on those. Any USB 3.0 drive will do fine if its PS4/Media stuff you're storing.

    Different story - No news from Sony yet re the officially approved NVMe drives for the free expansion slot.

    I wish they would get the finger out on this i'm already having to delete games to install new ones. I brought some PS4 games over to my PS5 like RD2, TLOU2, GOW as well as PS5 demon souls, Valhalla, Spiderman and i do not have much space left. I've rubbish internet speed so its a real pain deleting a game unless i'm really never going to go back to it - must platinum spiderman so i can delete that.

    I wanted to replay TLOU2, GOW and Red Dead on the PS5 so that is why they are there.

    Thanks, have one reserved there. Always find argos can be good for snags like this they just seem to randomly drop prices on games every now and then.

    The Spider-man Remaster though came with all DLC included, but even then it wasn't a full price game. It was only 20euro. I just don't see ND charging for a PS5 upgrade unless it's bundled with something else like the multiplayer mode.

    If it's just a visual patch like God of War, Ghost of Tsushima or Days Gone, it'll almost definitely be free.

    Was only a matter of time I Guess. the current VR is a massive pain to set up with the PS5, so word that the new model will only require one cord to the PS5 is very welcomed.

    Could be why they put the USB-C port on the front of the console.
