In currently now Sony has promotion for games right ? Other than gow n spider man which game should I buy


The Last Of Us 2 Remastered Still my most favourite game ever.

Ghost of Tsushima is really good too.

Just sold my ps5 away. Making space for the pro. Just 4 more days.

A pity I work till very late on Thursday so I'll only be able to touch my ps5 pro earliest 10pm onwards.

I PO-ed from challenger few days ago. The staff said that it’s the last 1 PO available. Seems like reseller got quota. Whereby sony sg seems to accept unlimited PO.

Hopefully those limited items from reseller released next week

13 bucks for HZD Remastered upgrade is a no brainer.

My boy was playing the original back then but I didn't play it, now can just dive into the remastered version.
It has been so long and I still haven't played HZD yet. Busy adulting, yeah? I remember paying around $10-$15 for the digital copy of the complete edition years ago. Then, subsequently SONY also gave out free downloads on PS+, added it to the catalog and removed it recently for obvious reasons.

If you look online, it is not just a simple upgrade, there are quite a handful of enhancements to that character models, foliage, conversations and they even added more people in the towns to make it livelier and more. I guess this would be the time to play the best version available with just a small fee upgrade if you haven't done so like me. I'm also pretty sure they will add it to the catalog in due time if you are patient enough.

ya, HZD has been going around cheaply for the longest time. When I first got my PS4(bundled), I thought it was due to being low game quality. Turn out, it is actually very good.

I think you lucky here, able to play it in it's best quality for the first time. The conversations was indeed very bad. Deadpan expressions, shot-reverse-shot camera etc... so bad that when I can't take it anymore, I just skip the dialogues.(never done that to a game ever)

The works they've done in this remaster is truly substantial. It really falls between a remaster and a remake in my book and could easily be labeled as a remake.

Sony online 1st PO only lasts few hours? I remembered it stated shipping around Nov.

Then recently they allowed PO again on their site which is the 2nd PO and the shipping date is end Dec onwards.

I would assume they have the same stocks as their resellers and fulfill their POs at the same timings as them too.

My HZD came with the PS4 bundle, then they give out free on PSN during Covid19 so I have both physical and digital copies.

The Remaster should play even better on the PS5 Pro, hopefully my preorder won't get delayed.

Edit: Should be PS4 bundle, not PS5. 🙂

The reception of the game was so overwhelming they probably got back the development cost and then some, hence the discount and free DLCs etc.

Compared to Astro's Playroom that cost $499, that's a steal :) . Still worth it though.

Check with you guys, when attaching the custom thumb grips on DualSense sticks, are you supposed to first remove the original rubber grip from the stick or just cover it with the new grip?

I was trying to attach over the original rubber but find it impossible so ended up removing it first.

Since it mentioned about the extra 2GB RAM used for OS/System related functions, I really hope it is able to solve the USB drive access delay I've encountered.

Everytime I boot up the PS5 it takes quite a while to initialize the attached 5TB USB drive which is almost full. I suspect they did not cache the file system info and hence had to read through the FAT for every boot up sequence thus the extra long delay for a fully filled drive.

Yeah, really lucky as I have put this game off for years. I have played TLOU, GOW, Bloodborne etc, just not Horizon series (talking about 1st party exclusives here) I didn't know the conversations were so bad and it's great that they took the feedback and overhauled them. I've watched some comparison videos and I was wowed by the significant upgrade. When you look at the upgrade price again (SGD$13), it seems very worthwhile.

Only 50 PS5 Anniversary Edition consoles available here.

Waiting to see who are the lucky ones getting the chance to snag it.

Wait!?? You can remove the original rubber on the thumb sticks? It's fixed, does it not?
