Playstation 5 [PS5] [Release November 12 2020]

Sure, if you have an extra $70 to $90 you want to throw away.

 

If you have no time to eat with your 7-day long gaming marathons, then think of all the money you're saving!!!

 

You are not throwing money away, you are getting a controller and a charging stand for it.

Sorry its friday, I am waiting to leave the office to go drinking.

I think it remembers me a cult game.

 

Looks ever so slightly familiar!

 

Certainly looks like Shadow Of The Colossus

 

This is strange to me. I had a wireless headset, rumble turned off and the led as dim as it would go...still wouldn't last the length of a Destiny raid. Had to remain tethered to a wall socket the whole time. Mostly this was just annoying, but getting up for a drink refill often meant I tripped on/ ripped the cord out.

 

Whaaaat? How long does a raid last for???

I've never *ever* had an issue with battery life of the DS4, my PS4 is the same I got on release day. I've never even needed to worry about it. The idea that it doesn't last a single game session sounds insane to me.

 

Mmmm I’ve done way more than a raid on full charge.

 

I remember when the PS3 was considered huge.

 

Perhaps I just had a defective controller then. I was always an early raid player and never much of a later gear grinder where it is all practiced and quickly dealt with. A short early raid pushed 4 hours or so. If we had people coming and going it might go 5 with short bathroom and drink breaks. I found that by 3 hours I hit the last charge bar and by 3 1/2 or so I would get the battery warning. *shrugs* That was my experience. Don't know what else to tell you. Bad luck on the controller battery draw?

 

I always found having two controllers the preferred way to go about things, just swap controllers. Easy peasy lemon squeezy

Some ubi soft games not working on the ps5 in BC

 

Syndicate not being bc is the biggest game ive heard not being bc. Also none of those games are on sonys list. Or did they update it from when it went live?

Either way strange omissions. Did they only recently find those games non compatible?

 

Apparently these games here

will work but with errors , someone went through that meta data another person had and found all those .

This is what Mafia 3 says in the store




So it seems like BC is coming in hot and messy for Sony. Hopefully this is jsut software work and sony will get it all running right in the future

 

The list is wrong it comes from a Google search and it changes for some games like Doom Eternal

At the very least I appreciate that some of these are specifying what exactly may be issues preventing full 100% BC on the title. Some main list for such games breaking down what type of issues could be present and updated over time is probably for the best.

Gonna assume that by and large tho, these games are pretty much playable. Or at least, I'd hope that to be the case.

 

either way hopefully its something they can fix with a patch or something .
