The Official PlayStation Thread Vol. 5 | SOP Today 3PM PST / NEW Firmware Update is LIVE / PS5 Pro launches 11/7 for $699

I’ve wanted to buy Cyberpunk and they’ve kept it in the same neighborhood. You can get Prince of Persia for $15-$20. Steam is $40. Tekken is full price on Steam. Cyberpunk is still a meh price. So I’m just really talking about newer titles.

I’m sure Steam will have their winter sale and prices will come down. And maybe other third party stores might have fairer prices. But console seems to be better for getting games cheaper. And with physical NIB, you can sell it too.

You're definitely doing it wrong then. I think I got Cyberpunk release day for like 12 bucks direct from GOG, Prince of Persia around 20 bucks direct from Ubisoft. If I don't see a Tekken sale I'll just buy a key from cdkeys or eneba if I miss a Steam, GOG, Epic, GreenmanGaming, Humble, Fanatical, Xbox etc. Not to mention all the free games from Epic and Amazon etc. If you're looking for gaming deals on a budget, PC is the way. You can start playing recent games without spending a dime (legally).

that a good brand? nice price for 2TB..

 

[nice jahb]

I like Genki's products for Switch, specifically their portable dock, which is the only 3rd party dock to not brick a Switch from the reviews I've seen. I'd assume their memory unit is solid too.

Finally

Some story spoilers there, but alright.

This is a great read:

Troy Baker digs deep: from The Last of Us to Indiana Jones

Troy Baker is gaming’s most well known actor – perhaps even its best. This Christmas, he becomes Harrison Ford in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle

www.gq-magazine.co.uk

This process has been both public and private. During the making of The Great Circle he fell out with his good friend Nolan North (best known for playing Nathan Drake in Uncharted) with whom he ran a retro gaming YouTube channel. “What he and I learned is that, in a pub, with a pint of Guinness, [we were] ******* great,” he says. “But [on the show] I was trying to turn him into something that I wanted him to be. I was being a bad friend.” They are on good terms now, friends again even, but it forced some introspection. “Before, I was so focused on being able to perfectly articulate the problem that I had with you, and really break down and litigate the offence and what you did that was wrong.”

PlayStation Portal, Sony Interactive Entertainment’s remote player for PlayStation 5 that ‘exceeded expectations,’ was initially intended to function as a standalone device without the need for a PlayStation 5, the people said.

It’s already a big leap with the PSP direct play beta. Hundreds of games and they play great

Yeah. We're looking forward to that game.
For us, DRG became our comfort and "wind down" game. Which is strange because most of the time we are playing on the highest difficulty and are just yelling at each other when things start to go wrong. For some reason that helps us relax.

Good thing I waited and copped Tekken on sale at target

I think it’s a double edged sword with fighting games. You save money either for yourself or for dlc but by the time you hop in people have their flowcharts of cheese and knowledge checks more optimized. And a lot of the less sweaty players will have moved on. I thankfully had a homie to game share with.

Anyone here get to blue ranks or higher in T8?

 

[Ricky D]

I didn’t even know they worked on a game with him in it. Is it tied to that new 007 game?

 

[swendro]

He was an elusive target in hitman.

It was pretty dumb to collab with him to begin with.

 

[andoneflip]

I just ordered Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut from best buy for $30 cant wait to play it

 

[hybridsoldier23]

My dude leaked his own involvement with our next game

 

[swendro]

Trying to give Metaphor a shake, but it's just endless text boxes.

That's just JRPG's though, right?

 

[MVP]

Just need a damn disc drive now... Almost verything I got for PS is physical

 

[Sinner]

So does the OG grey controller with the faux PS1 plug block the other USB port?

 

[jopx]

jopx you should be fine. my box had the same sticker in a blue color. Ups delivery woman asked me to sign for it.

Signature is for consoles only, or maybe there’s a dollar threshold. I got the anny slim no problem w/ sig, but both the dual sense edge and portal went dead this weekend, they said wait until today but it still says pending update.

The 30th pro just got a label today, says due in Wednesday, signature required and is awaiting pick up.

So does the OG grey controller with the faux PS1 plug block the other USB port?

It does but that’s just a slip cover, you can use it without that part if you need both ports. They should have put a little cut-out so you could leave it there regardless… pretty lame but overall, still an incredible capsule, though.
