[Official] Playstation 5

[Deathshadow]

PS2 era..................

It remains my all-time fav console. Many great games from iconic franchises.

If I were to rank the best PS2 games, these would be my picks:
1) Shadow of the Colossus
2) Resident Evil 4
3) Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater
4) God of War 2
5) Okami

As for PlayStation consoles (excluding portable systems, PSP & Vita), from best to worst:
1) PS2
2) PS3
3) PS4
4) PS1
5) PS5

That's just my opinion. Everyone's list varies.

Is there anyone here really looking forward to Halo on PS consoles?

I've never had any XBox systems and never cared about games like Gears of War or Halo, but I guess FPS fans would like them?

Likewise, I've never own any Xbox console, and never will. No interest in most of Microsoft IPs like Halo, Fable, State of Decay, Sea of Thieves etc. Though I do have Gears on PS5. Never played Forza, will keep an eye on the upcoming FH6.

If games like Quantum Break (Remedy) & Sunset Overdrive (Insomniac) are ported to PlayStation, I'll probably give them a shot. Would also like to try Hellblade 2 if there's a physical disc version. Not paying full price for a digital-only walking sim/tech demo.

Lol, so thats why I saw the Dualsenses at Lazada selling for $70+, thought it was a scam.

I love my 2 PSPs (Black PSP Phat & White PSP 2000) and my OG PS Vita. Though the not so bright PSP screens have always been difficult for me to really enjoy the games nowadays.

Last month finally found a cheap replacement for my PSP, aka the Mangmi Air X, a 5.5" handheld that can play PSP games at upto 3X res.

Wow Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D looks great, I would even say look slighty better than DQ3 when released last year. Definitely loving it so far, but encounter rate still as high as DQ3

Very high quality voice acting imho. Another well made video with the original voice actor, Maggie Robertson. Nice recap to link all titles and leading up to RE9. Appreciate that they did consider players with motion sickness (like me, 1 hour of play = 24 hours of pain) and included the 3rd person perspective (originally for this series), like how they have included in RE8. It is also a great use of the Halloween period for players to recap with their sales. As survival horror is making a comeback, I think it's safe to say every Halloween would be the sale/marketing/free catalog horror games period for this genre, even more so than ever before.

Marketing has been odd

Spoiler

They're trying to push the narrative that Grace Ashcroft is the sole protagonist in Requiem. Shine a spotlight on her in every trailer & gameplay videos.

Capcom seems to take a leaf out of the book of MGS2/TLOU2, and pull a fast one on players. By not revealing the 2nd main playable character in promotional materials. Worst-kept secret at this point.

I have not seemed much, probably just this trailer at this point. Hmm...thanks for sharing the "spoiler" and now I'll go find out more, and not to reveal too much here, but there seems to be "more".

My RE series gameplay stops at RE4 remake as the latest one. Not sure if they are going to do RE5 remake - nice coop memories with my bro so it would be great to play with him again. RE6, 7, 8 - didn't play.

The extended ending scene of Separate Ways (RE4R) all but confirm RE5R is coming at some point, just not the next one. Remakes of Zero & Code Veronica are reportedly next.

Regarding Requiem's 'spoiler', I expect an official reveal at either TGA or 30th Anniversary RE Showcase early next year (making my previous post redundant). Doubt Capcom will remain coy & hide it all the way leading up to launch, as it's a selling point that can generate hype, especially for longtime fans of the franchise.

It's uber hard for me to pick but PS3 would be in 5th place for sure.

I totally forgot about RE4R Separate Ways. I even checked to see if I've played it and I actually did. Haha. I didn't see it all the way through for Code Veronica. Stuck at the airplane "crate" boss fight though can just replay and conserve some grenade launcher ammos to blast him easy.

I also reckon they will probably reveal nearing, else it might be a wasted opportunity. We are just months away.

Speaking of which, how's RE8 3rd person perspective? They just overlay the character with the same 1st pax view, seems like it.

There's a free demo of Village Gold Edition, which includes 3rd person mode.

From what I've heard, it is badly implemented in Village. An afterthought & tacked-on feature added post launch. Not as smooth as 2/3/4, mainly due to its primary focus of being a 1st person game during development. If it were a free update, I wouldn't bat an eyelid & give it a pass. But charging money & locking it behind a DLC paywall is pure greed & ridiculous on Capcom's part.

I got both 7 & Village. Tried 7 but struggled to get through it & stop playing due to motion sickness & nausea. May need to decrease camera speed even further/put at lowest setting & see if there's any improvement. I'll probably give it another go someday.

Haven't start Village yet, as it's a direct sequel & continuation of Ethan's story. Need to complete 7 first. If RE7 include 3rd person, I would've completed it long ago.

Wait for the upcoming portable PS, most likely local play PS6 and PS5 games at fixed 30fps mode.

So I chanced upon a stick drift fix video and it said to blow air around the analog sticks to clear the accumulated dust and debris and it may clear the stick drift issue. And I did just that though vehemently blowing from different angles umpteen times. Rotate a bit here and there and keep blowing hard.

And it worked! Without opening up the casing etc. of course, before that I tried resetting it and ensure it is being updated to the latest firmware, but to no avail. So blowing it cleared the issue. I even tested and played for an hour+ straight - ZERO stick drift. Perhaps it would be good to occasionally blow to clear some dust and debris to "maintain" it.

If you are curious, I'm using the red Dualsense Gen 2. And my OG white one is really gone. Totally lost its ability to retain its charge. Perhaps the only way is to plug in the cable and use direct power in order to use it. A piece of advice would be to not overcharge - once the orange light is off then just stop charging. Sometimes when you are so engrossed in your game, you forgot about the remaining Dualsenses still on the charging station charging though fully charged already.
