Your blackout won't do shit to Sony. They don't care. You're trying to play Blackjack while the deck is rigged. You really want to win? Don't play. When the PS6 comes out. Don't buy it. That's what will get them to start paying attention

Sticking with my current console or upgrading for GTA 6

Upvotes

I currently own a launch-model PS5, which I played heavily for about three years before building my PC. Before switching to PlayStation, I originally played mostly on Xbox One, so I am familiar with both console ecosystems.

Now that Grand Theft Auto VI is coming out without a PC version available at launch, I am trying to decide which console would give me the best overall experience. I am considering keeping my current PS5, upgrading to a PS5 Pro, or moving to an Xbox Series X. My main priority is choosing the system that will run GTA 6 the best in terms of graphics, performance, image quality, frame rate stability, and overall features. I also want to consider whether upgrading would be worth the cost compared with simply continuing to use my launch PS5.

Tips with the new controller

1 Upvotes

I have bought a new controller for my PS5, and with it had to rework my senses in games... Now the senses feel quite okayish, but still it feels like my back bumpers, R2/L2 feel stiff and like they either have to be pushed very hard, or they don't activate...

The controller is under half a week old ... Any tips how to make the bumpers more responsive

Wait for GTA VI launch to buy a PS5?

0 Upvotes

So I just got a fat cheque from my job and have some spare money to spulge on either a new or old console. I don't want to make the mistake of buying a console on an impluse decision. Went through some of the posts on this subreddit and it seems like the GTA VI hype has jacked up used console prices. I'm not in a rush to buy or play GTA VI. This would be my first PS (I have gamed on PC for the longest time) so there are a lot of exclusives I haven't played or games I have played on subpar quality that I'd like to play in 4k before going to GTA VI. My concern is -

1) are the current high prices (40-55k) for a used console here to stay even after the GTA VI hype?

2) or is this a good market to buy as Sony has delayed PS6 release and the memory shortage might get worse and worse.

What do tech enthusiast and gamers think? Right time to buy or wait some more?

Help needed What's the chances of ps5 going on sale for black Friday this year?

0 Upvotes

I managed to get Currys to price match a very listing error giving me £40 off a digital ps5 to last years base price at £479 instead of £519. I have doubts about consoles going on a sale this year because black Friday is a week before GTA 6 releases.

I don't wanna buy for £479 now and then regret it it's like £350 for black Friday. I know last year I seen deals in the region off £289 with FIFA included but with the release of GTA 6 and the rising costs of storage and ram will it happen again this time around?

I have a gaming pc with a 9070xt but I've made the decision I won't wanna wait for GTA 6 and also I can get more value out of the console by playing wolverine and some eSports titles that I won't play in pc because of their shitty launchers

PlayStation o Xbox per neofita?

0 Upvotes

Ciao a tutti!! Devo fare una grande premessa: ho 27 anni, il mondo dei videogiochi mi ha sempre attratto ma purtroppo sono cresciuta in un contesto dove essere femmine e amare i videogiochi era visto come un affronto alla mia dignità femminile 🥲😂. Con gli anni ho lasciato stare pensando che fosse solo un interesse passeggero. Spoiler: non lo era.

Ho giocato per caso qualche anno fa a casa del mio ragazzo e mi sono resa conto di aver completamente accantonato una passione solo perché mal vista dalla mia famiglia. Lui mi ha supportata, ci siamo comprati Hogwarts Legacy con la sua Xbox e me lo sono divorata (la usa di più suo fratello, è insolito ma piace molto di più a me)

Vorrei almeno provare ad avvicinarmi a questo mondo ma senza spendere cifre esorbitanti e andrei sicuramente sull’usato! Che console consigliereste?

Classic consoles Brought a DMG back from the dead. (dead LCD board, audio amp, IPS & full recap)

Hey everyone, just wanted to share my latest Game Boy restoration. This one needed a bit of extra love since the LCD board was completely dead when I got it.
Here is a quick rundown of the repairs and mods for this build:

LCD Board Rescue trial (failed) The front board was completely dead, so I replaced the LCD bias chip to get things communicating again. No result.

Screen Upgrade: Dropped in a Hispeedido IPS kit.

Audio: Replaced the audio amp chip to fix the sound issues and get crisp, clear volume.

Maintenance: Did a full recap to make sure it runs solid for years to come.

Aesthetics: Gave the original shell a full Retrobrite treatment to bring back that classic grey.

I put together a short video showing the repair process and the final result here:

https://youtu.be/Bc68vqpZ4hA

It took some troubleshooting to figure out the dead board, but it's always satisfying to keep another original DMG out of the trash. Let me know what you think. Do you have any idea how to find the actual problem with the board?

Which console? Device help.

1 Upvotes

Hello,

I've been a long term consol gamer, pretty loyal to xbox, but I want to look at some other options.

I've got a few app games I'm enjoying like Gwent and a bank of Xbox titles in the cloud.

I was wondering about hand held PC devices and how well they would integrate my current saves.

Do I have to keep my console or will the run indipendently.

Has anyone made the switch?
