I'd be tempted to open it all up before Xmas and set it up for him, if it's a bundle then fifa might be a digital download which will take a few hours, he'll spend Xmas morning punching in account details and downloading stuff - before playing the excellent astro bot You could also take the skywalker saga to cex and trade it for something else if you wanted but I think it's a decent game He’s 11 years old. We’ve just picked up the bundle and probably save it for Christmas Day so he’s got something to open. We may buy him a couple of extra games as well. Expensive stuff this gaming malarkey.

Keyblade Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 Slim model announced. It's good that I held off for this. Typically the slim models end up being the most reliable years down the line. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully that's not the kiss of death for the PS5! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its basically the same current digital version with an attachable drive or the current drive version with a detachable drive (depending how you look at it).

Disc and digital, but the digital can be expanded to include the drive. They're claiming it's smaller and slimmer, and it is slightly visually different (the line going through the middle for tb example). Also comes with a horizontal stand now.

Chindie Posted October 16, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted October 16, 2023 Spider-Man 2 reviewing very well. Basically more of the formula they started in 2018 and perfected with the Miles Morales spin off. More map, more detail, more 'graphics', more variety, gameplay tweaks and developments. Instant switching between Parker and Morales, more variety to the combat and skills, mixing up the traversal with the web wings (...hmm). Looks superb. Now all they need to do is not **** up the narrative details, give me the classic symbiote suit, and keep the shitty spider legs thing locked away.

villa4europe Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 sounds like the story is brilliant with then one of the main "criticisms" being that the map is just bigger rather than doing anything new i'll pick it up in the christmas sales, not finding time at the moment 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes my bad, even when you add the optional external HDD it is still 20-30% smaller than the current disc version. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eldest Souls Röki PLAY DISCO ELYSIUM!! The quality of the games on Extra have started to feel poor the last couple of months compared to last year. Could do with a really big month for November. With AC Mirage out, i wouldn't mind AC Valhalla returning. Or something like Cyberpunk 2077 which is now almost 3 years old. I guess still too early for God of War Ragnarok?

villa4europe Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 I looked for my library and cyberpunk last night thinking it had been done before but unfortunately not, I think the wave of resurgence means it won't happen Game pass has dead space this month so that's a start... They need to do something with the last of us 2, like you say GoW, maybe GT7 but I've done that, not sure what they have after that, as I sit and play miles morales and I downloaded days gone last night I'll say "I don't use it enough" it's a weird service Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Psn games for November are mafia 2, aliens fireteam and a dragon ball z game Shite I'm sure they've done the mafia trilogy before so just number 2 now is crap, well worth the price increase 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've played 1 and 3, 1 was good but missed the whole open world living city thing, 3 was good but the mission structure was repetitive and boring, it's a shame as they're close to being great they just miss something, not sure I can be bothered with 2 Theres also a psn sale on, the best I've seen so far is watch dog legions down to £8 but I'm guessing that'll be on psn+ soon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubbs Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 My ps+ extra subscription runs out in a month. If I downgrade to essential do I lose the games I've previously added to my library? Also has anyone seen any better prices than the one quoted on the store? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
