I've had launch consoles for PS1/PS2/PS3/PS4 (still all working too) and I think this is easily the most excited I've been about one. Admittedly, the Demon Souls remake is a HUGE factor but just in general I'm really, really hyped. To be honest, it's kinda nice to have something to look forward to after such a sodbag of a year with COVID etc. A new Battlefield (to be released in 2022 I believe) would help - but after BFV (which was a huge let down after launch), I'm still sceptical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just pray middle management don't get their greasy nips on it. How they could **** up a next gen ww2 game is beyond me.. So much wasted opportunity because the core mechanics of the game were cool man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need to go back to the drawing board a bit and try and recapture what BF3 had but for next-gen imo. Next game needs to be in a modern setting.

Although, I could see them nailing cold war era, it'd be more akin to bad company 2, which is probably my fave after bf1 (am a sucker for the atmosphere/sounds).

dubbs Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 I'd really like to get better at these squad based games. I've seen some of @lapal_fan BF vids on YouTube and it looks like when you play with a good squad they are completely different beasts. Unfortunately most of my mates prefer sports or open world games so I end up teaming up with randoms which never ends well 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Designer1 Posted October 22, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted October 22, 2020 Paid the balance on my pre-order today. Also picked up Demon Souls Remake and AC Valhalla for launch day 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted October 28, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted October 28, 2020 Supposedly the controller is very, very, very cool. And at least 1 level, cough, of Astrobot is awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Bugsnax is free on psn+ at launch, I strangely think it's going to be shit but get a lot of players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubbs Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 So with the new lockdown coming into place this week in the UK, and all none essential retailers having to close, does this mean a delay for the release of the PS5 because nobody will be able to ship or collect it?

No. Warehouses and e-retail will still be operating so nothing will change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dante_Lockhart Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 I'm pretty sure my local indie shop will still complete the sales. I expect them to phone customers with preorders when they arrive and give them time slots to collect - regardless of the store being closed.

dubbs Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 I read something similar earlier today for places like Argos. I went for an option to get it delivered home, and going by passed experience from previous orders during lockdown, I didn't have any issues with delayed deliveries.

dubbs Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Still haven't got anything other than the new Astro Bot game to play on it though! However, being out of work still I'm going to struggle to justify £70 for Demon Souls so I'll have to suck it up 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacketspuds Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Completely missed the fact that I'll need to get an external HD to play PS4 games on the PS5. Better start doing some research. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
