All the issues at this point have been fixed

I had issues with COD the first 2 weeks,
i havent had an issue since
 
120fps >>>>>

remember a few months ago when folks in here were talking about fps dont really matter now we're spoiled

I think it is dope but from a trade-off perspective the difference from 60 to 120 is not dramatic enough to justify the big drop in image quality IMO

The jump from 30FPS upscale (4K) to 4K native 60 locked is HUGE though.
 
A balance is nice. I love eye candy so 4K/60 is great for me.
We need more tech like DLSS and checkerboading to keep good image quality while increasing framerate.


Finally tried PSVR & Gran Turismo Sport with the PS5 this weekend. 5hrs effortlessly melted away....

The biggest thing I noticed was, of course, SUPER stable frame rate. There also seems to be more people in the stands and camping along the track as well - they also seem more animated (waving, etc). Lastly, loading times seem to be improved (20-30%). The resolution might be improved, but I'd have to do back to back runs using the PRO to be sure. I could lean forward and read more details on the dash & gauge clusters.

Most importantly, you will immediately see your times improve with the uber stable FPS.

The TG-T base, T-LCM pedals, and F1 wheel piloting Lewis Hamilton's '17 W08, the Honda Project 2&4, and the Honda Dallara SF19 was complete bliss.

VR Racing is definitely the pinnacle of gaming for this guy...

My racing rig is running on a 55" Samsung MU7000 from 2017. It's from the era when a Samsung 7 series included the upper tier all-metal design, matching center stand, bluetooth voice remote, etc. This unit was a bit of unicorn as it had better contrast than the 8000 series with local dimming that year but lacked the brightness. There is also no "game" mode as we are used to seeing these days. It was a great value for a set that would truly only be used for gaming. Anyhoo, the PS5 graphics were still amazing. You don't need a super TV to have a fulfilling next-gen experience - 4K, 60hz, lower latency and great contrast is all.

Agreed.
Consistantly hitting apexes in the Mercedes W08 in VR is one of the best experiences ever.

Next VR headset is a day one, especially if GT is implementing it. I want proper full races as well not just limited modes.

Agreed. I am looking forward to finally getting involved with some of the league based global competitions once VR is fully unlocked.

Think I need a third console... smh. ---- edit: Hit on GS this morning, lol.

It seems like getting a Disc PS5 is extremely difficult. Every time I see a link to get it, it’s always sold out. Smh. I really want one lol

Seems easier than previously imho.

I bought someone a disc on the last Best Buy drop. This morning I got a disc and digital on the same Gamestop account. I tipped off my best bud just minutes before they went live and he got 2 discs (one for himself and his son) on the same GS account. He then tipped off a brother-in-law that proceeded to get a disc as well. You'll get one man - remain steadfast.

Sending you a DM, hope it helps.
 
So I have been playing 2k21 online. Just the regular PNO mode. I am in NBA rank but lost so many matches in tier 2 because everytime I pick the Mavs, I get matched up with a godly tier 1 legendary team. Does anyone else experience this? Probably lost a good 6 in a row to the 16-17 warriors. It is literally making the game unplayable.

I hate this **** too. No reason you should be forced to play vs. classic teams if you're using a 20-21 team.

My only time playing online was the release weekend. I picked the bulls, they matched me up against the Lakers.

Dude wasnt that good. I lost, but only by a little.

I said **** it. I'll try again.

They put me up against the lakers again.
:stoneface:
 
Just reinstalled Hitman 1. Never beat all of the missions a few years ago. Will play through it and pick up 2 and 3 when they are on sale again
