    I like that part scarcity and high cost have finally come to the console gaming space.

    It's been a long road for consoles to achieve parity with the PC gaming. From adding hard drives that can fail, to buggy releases that require enormous day-one patches, to the removal of physical media, to operating system updates, to splitting the hardware into multiple SKUs with differing specs, with lower end models unable to run certain games well enough to play.

    But finally with a $600 entry price point, no compelling launch titles to mark the generational shift, and a hardware shortage that makes buying the consoles virtually impossible, console gaming has arrived. You guys might not have a mouse and keyboard, but we are still one big happy family now. Welcome to the fold everyone.

    uh astrobot and demon's souls though

    and also miles morales but that's on PS4 too

    Aren't all three of those titles remakes actually? I thought astrobot was a 2018 PS4 VR game.

    I bought a PS5 so I could get better framerates on PS4 games and it was worth it

    Astro is the same character or whatever as the VR game but the PS5 game is an entirely different thing made ground-up for the PS5 almost as like an extremely involved tech demo (like so good that some people thought it was goty, which is wild). It was still at its core a tech demo, though. It was made specifically to show off the PS5.

    Then yeah you have a remake and a (really good) expansion/spin-off game.

  • Kid PresentableKid Presentable Registered User regular
    Astro's Playroom is the pack-in game and is totally new
    I wouldn't say it's a SYSTEM SELLER or anything, but it's a surprisingly good little platformer and a genuinely impressive showcase of the new fancy controller haptics

    Yeah Astro's is an incredible tech demo, a very solid little platformer, and a shockingly good museum of weird Playstation stuff. You unlock a bunch of old playstation hardware that is modeled exactly and you can spin it around and look at it and open disc trays and stuff. Shit like the GPS module for the PSP is in there.

    Just got power back. The city has asked we all go easy on the power so I am typing this post by candlelight as our pioneer forefathers did. I had some tomato plants with green tomatoes forming in a planter. I brought them inside to protect them from the frost but last night a rat seeking warmth ate the whole fucking plant. Three tomatoes are gone and now there is a mouse in the house. And there is still a chance the power could go out. And Rush Limbaugh died.

    2021 is looking as bad as 2020.

    Cycadelic Records in the Compton Swap Meet became one of the first stores willing to distribute the mixtapes of Dr. Dre, Eazy-E, and Ice Cube, whose graphic depictions of everyday violence and police brutality made them progenitors of West Coast reality (or “gangsta”) rap. Because the store’s Korean immigrant owners supported these and other emerging hip hop artists, their store is now credited as a birthplace of the genre.

    The Korean-Latin-Black interethnic tension and diplomacy of 80s-90s LA is one of the most fascinating anthropological things in American history

    The other important thing about LA swap meets in the 80s is your dad not buying you the used action figures that were so cheap

    Who needs a PS5 or Series X, just get a gaming PC where all the good games like Valheim are.

    ... I am getting word that it has been nearly impossible to build a gaming PC for over a year

    I did it but I kinda sorta let the terrorists win.

    But you know what? Not terribly mad and I am happy with my toy that also happens to be doing some heavy lifting from a work/container host perspective.
