Yakuza Like a Dragon is amazing and super fun
I mean, is it really amazing? I'm about 10 hours into the game and the story isn't mind-blowing, it feels to me pretty disjointed. The combat is boring as shit because it's turn-based and therefore doesn't flow very well, on top of it being impossible to lose. The game is on my list of games to finish and complete but I for sure wouldn't put it on my list of games to showcase the Ps5.

2tb gen4 ssd with heatsink for $230 on best buy DOTD

funny how the 1tb xbox xpac costs pretty much the same, while the 2tb is $400 on xbox lol
Which is exactly what people aren’t retarded said would happen. Anyone that claimed Microsoft’s solution was better than Sony’s because you have to remove a couple of screws is idiotic. I got my 1TB 980 pro for my PS5 for like $125 or some shit.

Is there a noticeable difference in loading times and speed when upgrading to one of those SSD with a heatsink?

no same speed as internal SSD, just more storage. PS5 only games can only run from internal or SSD, not from external USB3 drives which are an order of magnitude slower but can run PS4 games

Yeah the stock ssd is plenty fast to begin with. It’s just expansion, 800gb or whatever it comes with is like 6 games now adays once you factor in the OS

So if I have a disc ps5 and digital ps5. Can I get a game on disc for ps4, pay for a ps5 upgrade, then download and play it digitally on the digital ps5?

antonline has a digital bundle in stock that has some useful things actually in the bundle but it’s not disc version so I was curious how it worked.

AFAIK no, the disc version is upgraded to a ps5 version that needs the ps4 disc to be inserted to play.

ironically i'd probably be happy with the bronze tier if its like $40/yr, i rarely play PS+ games and they have been quite awful the last six+ months. I don't think Sony really understands though why people like Gamepass

i also wouldn't be shocked if those of us with like 5-10+ years of PS+ are fucked over when it comes time to choose

Sounds pretty terrible. Better have a way better library for the top tier to play compared to psnow for that price.

$3 a month for online play? At that price, I might actually try my hand at multiplayer every now and then.

Does every tier include cloud saves? It's really the only reason i have PS+ atm.

Wait....

I have PS+ , had that since it was a thing. Just have a yearly sub that runs. Not really something I think about. While games I do actually play from PS+ free games are rare, in a year I think it makes up for the current price of $60 per year (59.02 based on currency exchange).

At $60 per year now, I get online play, free demos (not sure why they call them "free", demos have never been charged for, but whatever), game streaming, monthly free games, monthly store offers and a big banner of PS+ exclusive offers. The only thing not on the platinum list already is the select PS3, PS4 and PS5 titles for streaming.

The above prices are for 3 months. Already at $5 per month I get more than the gold tier as I already have the exclusive offers.

If that is the actual intended price tier, it is a massive price increase for what is already there. The only new thing I see that isn't already a part of a regular PS+ is the PS3, PS4 and PS5. They're just ripping the already existing service apart, breaking it into worse, much more expensive parts?

Gamepass is a thing they're supposedly worried about and want to compete with, and this is their counterpoint?

I can't be looking at that right, or I am missing something.

Nah, its corporate greed. Pretty standard. If you have to use the service, why wouldn't they want to raise prices? They take on fluff to make it sound different and new and lots will fall for it.
