Never played the gears games except for the last one a little because I had gamepass and a PC. It was ok, but it just felt like a room after room of bullet sponge enemies, which got old fast. It will be very weird playing gears on a ps5, probably a lot like when Sonic dropped on Nintendo for the first time.

Probably nothing. Most likely, a paid consultant to give ideas. And if it was a worker, they were just doing their job and at most got a “great job, keep up the good work,” praise email.

That’s not entirely true. I believe there are several people who made mods to make it playable without VR.

I will play it someday, and this will most likely be the way.

Just in time to release on old hardware, then resell it again for next gen consoles coming that fall.

Yes, it improved on every aspect of the ps4. Load times were non-existent, graphics upgrade was good enough, the exclusives were always great. I like a dedicated box for gaming, not that I don’t play pc games as well, it’s just easier to pick up and go on a console especiallywith rest mode…

I got it a few months after it released, which is how long it took to find one, and at the time i was deciding between building a new PC or getting a PS5 and at the time the PS5 was way cheaper due to GPUs being ridiculously priced. I thought it was a great price for what you got and it’s a solid system. I use it on average once every other day and has given me no issues.

It was a solid console in every aspect to me. My one complaint is as much as I like the controllers they suffer from stick drift and I have gone through 4 controllers so far. Same goes for every one of my friends so it’s awful.

I know it tracks with the release of other consoles, but wow, did this one go fast… I feel like it’s barely been out, but over 6 years have passed and it will be 7 when it releases. I honestly have no idea how they can even improve much from what currently exists anyway. Almost everything I wanted was addressed in the PS5. Guess we’ll see.

I also can’t wait to play Oblivion remastered as well. I just couldn’t see picking up yet another remake/remaster over something original first. I figured the small team could benefit way more from as many sales as they could, plus I just wanted something new, haha. Can’t wait though, I haven’t played it since like 2007.

You are in for a treat if you enjoy RPGs with modern takes on an old system. I have been playing games for over 30 years and lately haven’t had the funds to buy much of anything in the past year, but I made an exception for this and it thankfully was a good as I was hoping it would be. Holding my interest is getting harder as well, but thankfully, due to this game and a few others, I am starting to realize it’s most likely because I crave something different and unique sometimes.

But at the very least we can see that the same developers who worked at Ubisoft are better than they are allowed to be. Clair Obscur Expedition 33 deserves the same love that this got and features mostly Ubisoft employees (only 30 people in total) and shows the company truly hinders how good a game can be.

I enjoyed the 2nd, but most of the things were very cookie-cutter generic. I liked that style to an extent, but it just becomes very predictable and after a while and I wanted to just finish it by the end. Decent enough story I guess and could have been worse. Fighting was probably its best part.

I don’t want one right now. Didn’t see any reason to buy it day one which is not like me, but finances are tight so I can’t really see splurging right now. My friend was all over it though and shockingly enough he said he was able to get it last night from Walmart after waiting in an online queue for 45 min and totally expected the worst.

Hey, that’s not entirely true! Our place brought them in because it was also a cheap solution! Honestly, it has done fine for our storage solution, which is mostly backups related. Then again, we came from Baracuda, which was super expensive, super locked down, and did break a lot.

I will say I had 1 time i needed it. It was my Samsung Odessey monitor. It supports freesync but I noticed when it was on there would be a slight flicker. Dealt with it for probably 2 years before looking into it. Low and behold online comments all said firmware fixed it. It worked, fixed it and now it’s been fantastic ever since. One of the only times an update on a screen did something amazing. It’s not the norm but the excception.

So we pay them to do this to us? I stopped putting tv’s on the internet once I realized it offered me nothing useful. Firmware is about it and if that’s the case I’ll either usb it or put it on the internet for 5 min to do the update. Even then Samsung sucks so much with firmware the release notes for every single update are “bug fixes and improvements”… thanks Samsung.

If I am forced to put it online or it comes up with a way to phone home on its own, I am done buying those kinds of tv’s, and I’m sure some other brand will offer one that doesn’t, even if it isn’t the best one to buy.

I am also satisfied with my RX 7800 XT purchase when it released over a year ago at a lower cost than this card is.

I normally set these to x1.5 speed to help as well.

Thanks for the share. I laughed and agreed with most talking points. I do wish it was shorter, 20 minutes where a lot of the topics are repeated throughout definitely could have been edited down a bit. The funniest part to me is that this may cost US folks $600 when the $450 price was already on the idk if i can justify buying this side.

I loved the Outer Worlds! Can’t believe it’s been out for that long already. I am excited to see how they expand on the first. My only complaint about the first was it’s size. This one will probably be fully fleshed out more seeing how popular the first was.

I used it a few years ago, and it was fine and i didnt have to pay anything. I wish Sony offered this because I’m on my 4th ps5 controller…

If it’s not fixed in the new one, they can screw off… it’s bad enough they got away with it, but to totally redesign everything and still say yes we’ll keep the defective parts going forward is a big no from me.

Idk why everyone is so skeptical. As someone who works in the field where backups are day of life, this is cool shit. So it seems like they got the 2 copies, one that’s readily available in case it’s ever needed immediately and 1 in case that fails or worse. I wonder if the SSD array is just a RAID setup or duplicated as well. I also think for the severity of what they are trying to accomplish here they should have a 3rd location that syncs with the SSD array because sometimes you just never know and I wonder how they test the tape backups to make sure it works and continues to work without issues.
