    It's the one I got with my launch PS5 so well out of warranty. Will try the wall charger and see how that goes.

    Giving my OG PS5 to the girlfriends boys, aged 6 & 10 (I'm using ps5 pro now). Any recommendations for games that age group? They love Sonic and WWE, and I was thinking Minecraft and Spyro. Maybe fifa

    Minecraft for sure.

    When my son was that age we played party crashers all the time. He would laugh so much he'd go off the track after shunting me off or blowing me off the track with a rocket. It might not look like much but its really fun to play. We still play it sometimes.

    Think I got it on sale for a few euro.

    Edit: Minecraft dungeons was popular co-op for my son and his pals around that time also

    Get them Gran Turismo 7 and show them how to do the Jim Burnley Lunge.

    Something I experienced from racing against Jim in GT7 multiplayer.

    When they're older. Don't want to put them off driving for life

    So, from PS5 base + same TV ... Pro, Yes or No ?

    Honestly I'm not sure there's a massive difference. I was pretty happy with the base in the first place. The pro is really good, quiet, quick and smooth. But the base was on the whole too. Lucky enough to be able to afford the upgrade and had in back of my head of giving the OG to the young lads. I think you'd only notice any significant difference if playing them side by side tbh.

    Ok, thanks for that. There are sales on it and the disk drive at the moment. I've already played the first party Sony games that have been improved for Pro, so maybe I'll replay them again on PS5+x one day.

    Phone charger didn't work for the controller but looks like I got it working and charging now. While connected to the PS5 and the console powered on, I turned the controller off via the controller menu, then it started charging. I turned it on again and it kept charging. Fully charged now.

    Most kids that age will play FiFA, COD, Fortnite and Minecraft.

    Yeah I agree with Jim on this - unless you have a need for a second PS5 in the house or your current one is giving you trouble (or you found 800 quid down the back of the couch! 😁) - I'd probably hold off for the time being. It's a great machine alright but that 50 quid off isn't a huge amount tbh, save the dosh for another day. 🙂

    Jesus the PS Store has become absolutely littered again with bullsh*t low-effort monstrosities. Heaps of games just featuring a shark with legs or a piece of wood with a face.

    "Brainrot Tung Tung Sahur", "Escape Tung Sahur Backrooms", "Tralalero Tralala Simulator", "Supermarket Anime Collector's Simulator"

    They really need to do a better job at curating these and splitting them off into their own separate category or something. Even if the category of "PS5 Games" includes just all games that have been released, these shouldn't f*cking qualify.

    Nintendo is the same with their "Seal of Quantity" as ign calls it. They're always near the front thanks to releasing the same games with different names and asset flips, then rotating some of them to be on sale.

    Just looked up that Death Park 4k remaster and the 100% walkthrough for it is about 25 mins.
