    Nothing else seems to work backwards, so I doubt it.

    Bugsnax is available on the free PS plus games thing now for anyone interested.
    Didn't show up with Shadow of Mordor and Hollow Knight but I was able to add it to my library by searching for it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,854 ✭✭✭✭Potential-Monke


    Not getting the option to add it on laptop or mobile. Just have 'More information' and it brings me to the next page which says if I don't have a PS5 yet, add it to the library yadda yadda, but no option to add it.

    I already own Shadow of War and Hollow Knight, so I'm getting the option to 'Download now' on them.

    I'm getting the option to add to library on the app.

    Just tried the App again and going into the PS+ section and games, same issue. But I went back to the main screen, searched for it and could then go to the product page and 'Add to library'. Had to agree to a new disclaimer though. Everything is new!!!

    Seeing some issues with launch consoles bricking themselves when trying to rebuild the database after a crash. With and without external HDD attached.

    Not many right now. As we know this happens and there is a failure rate for most electronic devices.

    Hopefully none for us boardsie's

    Issues may be patched by the time we get ours though. Over the next few days we'll hear of issues as lots get theirs today.

    Yes. The consensus seems to be avoid using external storage for now until a fix is released.

    I wonder do shops have an allocation for replacements or if people do encounter console killing faults are their only options refunds and try again next time

    Argos have their games up now. €85 for demon's souls and MM Ultimate, very few copies of each in my local. Smyths are cheaper and have 14+ copies of each in my local. Argos are offering a blu ray film for 6 euro when you buy a ps5 game, **** off Argos.

    Has it been confirmed yet if buying from other country psn stores works yet or did Sony put a halt to it?

    I've seen a good few people on here and other places mention that its all still active for other regions. I sure hope so anyway because I topped up my US account by 100 Dollars just the other day!!

    Ya I've been tracking there store the last couple of weeks hence the reason I cancelled Spider-Man from Smyths.

    Eneba was where I got the credit. 100 Dollars for 80 Euro at the time.

    One benefit of Europe, gives Sony a full week to patch it!

    Since Godfall isn't reviewing too well kind of stuggling to get another game for next week. Demon's Souls is being delivered in the morning so I can look at that box for a week anyway ha!

    Not sure of MM but it's probably what I'll get. Have the original on the pro and played through twice already.

    Might give Valhalla a try but last one I played was Origins and I got bored about 30 hours in which isn't too bad but had no desire to keep going.

    I absolutely loved origins. Taught it was best Ass Creed.
    Hated Odysea. got bored after 15hrs.

    One Week to go :)

    Got myself really nervous looking at all the people with bricked consoles etc but then I saw a very good point that no one goes online to say their console has been working perfectly only if they have issues so you're more likely to see them.

    I never knew launch consoles could be so stressful

    This happens every generation.
    XB360 being the most famous Ide say. "Red Ring of Death"


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,109 ✭✭✭✭How Soon Is Now


    I've actually never had issues with a launch console when first released and I've had a few. Fingers crossed this will be the same!

    My two main issues I had was obviously along with most people the red ring of death for the 360 and then the laser for the disks went on one of my PS3s.

    Other then that nothing that caused to much heartbreak.

    This is my first launch console I'm usually a late adopter but the only console issue I've ever had was the yellow? Light on ps3, always remember taking it apart once a week and going at it with a heat gun and putting it back together so it'd word for another day or two

    Yea this happens every time a new gen kicks off, one person has a faulty console and posts it online, all of a sudden the internet is proclaiming it to be the next RROD

    My plan is Demon's Souls from US PSN and deciding between Miles Morales Ultimate or NBA 2K21 from Smyths, leaning towards MM as I can trade that quick enough and still keep SM Remastered.

    They've also listed all of their accessories and either didn't get any stock of the charging stands/headsets or they were sniped up :(
