    Sunset Overdrive trademark registration by Sony has been spotted: https://t.co/jlY0ygcfEv https://t.co/mAsiIZ6kc2

    Not sure what this means exactly. I'm guessing maybe a release on PS at least.

    Either way SO was imo one of the most underrated games of last gen. I greatly enjoyed it and was sad how hard it flopped cause no one played it as it had a really fun multiplayer that I couldn't get games in.

    So if it gets a second chance that'd be cool.

    Why would SONY sue for this? Is this just a way to generate interest?

    Sony did threaten legal action against Platestation and they basically ended up shut down. D-brand is probably in a very different position and is just grabbing headlines from us ignorant masses.

    So I've been preparing for Rift Apart by playing through the series and getting the Platinum Trophies for each Ratchet game. It has been fun playing through the different stories again. It's a bummer that Tools of Destruction was before trophies though. :(

    So far though I have completely finished Ratchet and Clank, Going Commando, and Up Your Arsenal.

    I am two skill points away from being finished with Deadlocked, and then I'll be moving on to All 4 One.

    It has been really fun so far and reminds me why it's one of my favorite franchises in gaming.

    I'm partway through the first game on PS3. First time playing any games in the series. It's alright so far. I'm assuming they get better, because it's pretty basic and the shooting controls aren't super great.

    I feel like I would completely burn myself out on the series doing that. By the time I got to Rift Apart, it would feel like the 8th slice of pizza when I was actually full after the 3rd.

    Did they stop doing the video clip thing in the game? I assume that is running on a loop now and not having current video clips.

    Maybe not exactly the same thing but you can "unfollow" games specifically (or in bulk).

    The charm of the games combat is the creativity of the weapons. Early on it's pretty basic because you've just got the basic blaster, by the end of the game you've got an arsenal of hilariously destructive weapons.

    I can almost guarantee it's some sort of near-automatic thing having to do with trademark and visual copyright laws or something. US copyright is fucked up in the sense that failure to "defend" a copyright is legally interpreted as surrendering the copyright, so Sony might have to sue the company to prevent "losing" the rights to distinctive design of the PS5.

    The default power setting only supplies power to the USB ports for 4 hours in rest mode. So it might be that if you're trying to charge a controller long after you shut the console off.

    While I still love the first game, it is very basic. There is no strafing and the weapons are a bit basic. But starting with the second game, the series gets much better and more fleshed out, and the weapons start getting crazy.

    That was a concern for me but I don't think it'll be an issue. I have pretty much all the games half complete trophy wise already and they are all already ready to start challenge mode. So it's about playing through the games on challenge mode and mopping up the last remaining trophies. So far I'm having a blast with not a chance for burnout in sight. But it helps that I love the franchise as much as I do.

    I will be skipping Tools of Destruction and A Crack in Time though during this playthrough period since I played through those two not too long ago.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but the only Ratchet and Clank on the PS4 is the remake/movie tie-in, right? I'd love to do a replay but that would mean hauling out my PS3 from my closet.

    Ugh, Rift Apart looks so good it's threatening my plan to wait for a new PS5 model with more storage and less fins.

    Correct. The only game on PS4 is the movie tie in game unfortunately. :?

    Re: Suspend issues

    I have gotten 3 failed restarts for Demon's Souls (The game either crashes or it never leaves the splash screen) and once for Oddworld (game crashed). I've had the PS5 die three times when trying to resume from sleep as well.

    No issues with PS4 games so far. I've owned the console for about a month. No external drives.

    Something neat about Wreckfest is that even though it's a PS4 game, they added haptic feedback, e.g. you can feel when you lock your brakes if you disable ABS.

    Playing Resident Evil Village on PS5 after starting on PC: Wow. I have a midrange (AMD 5700, i5-8th gen, 32Gigs) PC and boy does the PS5 blow my PC performance away. I'm guessing it is just easier to optimize a console game than it is a PC iteration with its myriad configurations.

    Hmm. That might be worth looking into. MSI always shows my graphics card way under utilization.

    . . .still very much impressed by the PS5 though. Was going to get Days Gone on PC, but I had it on PS4 digital and it performs like a dream.

    Oof; i made the mistake of preordering hood outlaws & legends because i wanted a multiplayer game and it's 4v4vAI premise seemed cool and un-fuck-up-able ...All their mechanics are just straight up broken. There's literally no incentive to do any of the match objectives other than the final extraction so every game is both teams twiddling their thumbs until one gets bored; does the objectives and then the other team steals it from them at the last minute. It's like they didn't test this shit at all.

    Anyway tl:dr DO NOT BUY HOOD UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, DONT MAKE THE SAME MISTAKES I DID. To think i skipped and don't have the cash for returnal due to this /facepalm

    Sadly this is another one of those areas where Sony lags behind everyone else, on Xbox or steam getting a game refund is no problem provided you haven’t played it for too long online; Sony? Nope as soon as you download a purchase no refunds period. Cyberpunk is the only exception I can think of

    One thing that still amazes me is just how shitty the ps4's network speed is compared to the ps5.I always assumed it was PSN that was slow but nope; I guess sony gimped it hardware or software wise. I just downloaded the mass effect legendary 80 gig preload on the ps5; it took 16 minutes. Then started it on my ps4 after it finished, eta 8+ hours lolwut (and yes, they're both wired in)

    Yeah you will. Every time I have come back to a run a day later I get rocked almost instantly. Something about jumping mid run is painful.
