    Your warranty does not overule your customer rights. Your contract is with the shop not Sony and the shop should offer one of the three R's and should not be passing you off to Sony for any reason.

    While we're still in lockdown it's probably handier to just contact Sony directly. I had to return a Switch pro controller that developed drift after only a couple of weeks to Smyths. While they were helpful, the entire process was a complete pain in the hole. I think the return process took longer than we actually had the controller for.

    Crash 4 PS5 update is out today. For some reason, I can't download it.

    I don't even get the option. There's a "Learn More" option, and when I click on it I get "you can't buy this product for the following reasons: You already own the following products, which conflict with the product you're trying to buy - Crash Bandicoot 4: Its About Time - Tracker"

    Strange...

    The compression on the PS5 is incredible. For Crash, the PS5 install file is ~20GB compared to the ~45GB size for the PS4 version. Very welcome.

    I still find the GPU song pops into my head now and again randomly, even though I haven't touched the game in a few months now

    One of the great things about these shorter games is that I feel more inclined to go back and play them again.

    I wish more AAA developers would give us shorter games with just their best ideas and leave the bloated stuff out.

    I suppose they wouldn't be AAA developers if they did that.

    Anyone have trouble capturing group audio? Playing Apex legends with buddies on PS4 and PC but the only voice that I can hear on playback is my own. Gone through all the settings, and everything seems to be set to share.

    There should be a setting to allow voice sharing on ps4, (Party Settings > Allow Your Voice to Be Shared), they will all need to do this on their end, I don't think you will be able to capture pc audio without using external streaming software.

    Anyone know if you can pre-load the PS5 version of Avengers?

    I don't think you can pre-load an upgrade.
    I'd say you get the upgrade the next time you start the game, after upgrade is released.

    It’s not an upgrade really, it will have its own separate download.

    New story trailer for Returnal.

    Had the console for a few weeks now and I'm getting a really persistent and frustrating issue.
    The Network connection keeps dropping where it says Internet Connection: Checking...

    Has anyone else had this problem? Seems others online have but can't find any solution.
    It makes online play borderline unplayable. My internet connection is fine, it works perfectly with ever other device including the PS4.

    Wired or wireless connection? When I got a PS4 i had issues with the wireless now and then. Been wired ever since and never had an issue.

    Wireless. Saw some people suggest they still had the issue with a wired connection though :(. Hoping that's not the only solution.

    Had to get tplink plugs myself. No problems with downloads or netflix on wireless but wasnt steady enough for gaming. No problems since getting plugs.

    Despite my Internet connection being perfectly fine for Xbox One and PS4, for some reason it wouldn't play nice with either Series X or PS5. Had to manually insert the Google DNS for both and that sorted it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,445 ✭✭✭ThePott


    I don't think I'm as tech savvy as you guys but I might give them a Google :pac:
    Cheers!

    I'd the exact same problem as yourself. My wireless connection dropped every 15 or so minutes. Had to go with a wired connection to stop it. Have had no issues since.

    Damn guess I might need to look into a wired connection afterall which is less than ideal :mad:, I wrote to Sony seeing if they had any recommendations.

    Have a look at homeplugs if you can't run a cable to the ps5.

    Wasn't familiar with homeplugs but after you and the previous poster suggested them I'll have to give them a look. Would be ideal as running a cable would be a bit of a disaster with my set-up. Thanks for all the suggestions lads!

    Plus one on these, they are a game changer and relatively cheap. I got ones where you can still plug a device I to them so yoy don't lose a socket. Very handy.
