Had to get the £600+ Horizon bundle but it’s for my steplad and he wanted the pulse headset and the black side plates. Ordered it yesterday and it’s been dispatched arriving tomorrow. Now, it gets worrying for me. They got the PS5 + Horizon for £520 so I’ve ordered it for myself but I’m worried they will cancel it as it’s the same name and my bank that’s paid for both so I’m worried they’ll think I’m trying to scalp. It says one per customer based on postcode/payment method etc so I’m scared they will cancel the ps5 I’ve bought for myself after getting one for my steplad. Do you think it’s worth emailing them to explain this? Can you ring them up directly? Might be easier to do it over the phone. If not, I would email to explain the situation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily the missus got on it quick and ordered one in her name to our home address (steplad’s was in my name to my work address). Nobheads.

Scalpers have made it a nightmare for the rest of us to get hold of one. I did what you did and got one in a big bundle. It has certainly re-ignited by enjoyment of gaming. Even if it is spent alternating between Naughty Dog and From Software games. Enjoy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel for anyone who have mutiple kids who want their own consoles. First world problems I guess. I’m mainly looking forward to playing Ghost of Tsushima as I’ve held off playing it on PS4. That and Ratchet & Clank. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Ghost is brilliant, still not played R&C Horizon is good it's too big, deathloop is still the best ps5 game for me but that's coming to one of the PSN+ options soon, I'd read up on that cos you don't want to buy something this month that's "free" next month Play astro bot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Designer1 Posted May 13, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted May 13, 2022 For me Demons Souls is still the best game to show what the PS5 can do. And it's **** great too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingram85 Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Thoughts on ps5 so far. I’m really liking the menu ambiance music, very reminiscent of the PS2. UI itself is a mixed bag, sleek minimal design which I like but it’s hard to navigate. Nothing is where it should logically be. Played Astrobot, very fun but the haptic stuff is waaaay overblown. It’s good don’t get me wrong but hardly the second coming of Christ. HD Rumble in the switch joy cons is just as cool. I think where the dual sense will excel is the resistive triggers. PS5 itself is huge. Bigger than I realised. May as well have a 90’s PC Tower lol. It’s still ugly as sin too. Gets a bit noisy at times when copying from disc but only compared to my XBSX. It’s virtually silent compared to ps4/pro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which given how lacking the "classic games" line up is for PS+ Premium is a good thing. I'll be going PS+ Extra when it launches. I don't see anything in the list of "classic games" that makes Premium worth playing for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I'll be the same, I'll keep an eye on the trials and maybe dip in and out if possible but extra will be enough for me Edited May 16, 2022 by villa4europe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogso Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 Here's an interesting development re the new PS+ - legacy games are going to have trophy support. Whether it's all of them, or just some, is unclear; but Syphon Filter at the very least is amongst them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 I've not had any problems, comfortably getting 10+ hours out of it Not sure what my other controllers did, xbox i only use for FM and the PS4 controller I ran in to the ground Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much better than the PS4 controllers for me. But then my original PS4 controller is over 6 years old and my other controller is a Chinese knock-off.

villa4europe Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Ive got no interest in it if I'm honest but will probably watch it Friday in the hope of one non VR game being thrown in too Was hoping for something more of I'm honest as an E3 alternative, maybe they'll add a couple of titles in to the summer of gaming thing and then a GoW state of player a month before that's released Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
