Concord looks like crap. Hate all this live service garbage. Tempted to sell my PS5 after I play FFVII Rebirth.

Sony has a page up on PSN but weirdly no price despite the final release date.
According to the news today, it is 4x as big as the free game that came with PS5.

If that is the case, I may pay full retail for it. The freebie was really really good, just a short experience. I finished everything in that game 100%.

LOL

PS VR2 was designed from the ground up specifically for PS5 – so you’ll notice that some key features, like HDR, headset feedback, eye tracking, adaptive triggers, and haptic feedback (other than rumble), are not available when playing on PC.

I mean aren't most of those bullet points one of the things that made PSVR2 one of the better headsets in the VR market?

Out of that list of unavailable things, eye tracking is the most important as it can help to reduce the rendering load with foveated rendering and bring VR to less powerful GPUs.

Yeah they said it can still do foveated rendering though if you look at what the available features are.

Now how they know what to render since they can't see what the user is looking at ... yeah that I don't really understand.

So it's $60. I do want to play it but I'll get to it when I get to it.

So after being shown playstation remote play, a few days later I'm getting a portal... I have a problem. I've read up on the short comings on the portal and I'm still sold on it.

Yeah I'll probably wait till it is like $30 or something. I'm sure it will be fun but it's not a "must have at launch" game for me like other games are.

Been playing Demon's Souls Remake finally. Even as a Souls vet and someone who has played through Demon's Souls originally on the PS3 this one was still kicking the crap out of me for a while. 1-2 in the Boletarian Palace was especially annoying until I remembered I could just cheese the red dragon with soul arrows.

Glad the poison diarrhea water stage of Demon's Souls (5-2) has an easy boss. Would have hated having to progress through that entire stage again after losing to the boss.

Fair warning - if you are going to do NG+, be sure to reset the World Tendency to your liking (ie: Pure White) before going to NG+ as they do not reset.

The difficulty jump in NG+ is crazy too... like in 4-1, there's a phantom in PB right at the beginning. And past the door is a couple skeletons that will kill you in one or two hits.

I suck at the game way too much to get world tendency pure white I think. I love how they kept the King Allant bug from PS3 where you could just keep punching and headbutting him all the way to a staircase and then knock him off for an easy kill.

You can get it PW by beating the bosses as long as you don't die in Body form. I played through it in Soul form for the most part; by jumping off the ledge in the hub.

Never thought of doing that. I only beat a couple of areas without dying in the game so did almost all the bossfights in soul form. Funniest one was how easy Old Monk was right after Maneater who was by far the hardest boss in the game when I played it on PS3 and still seems the worst boss I have fought so far on the remake.

God the blue dragon in Demon's Souls has to be one of the worst bossfights ever in a game. Cheese it to half health with arrows/magic until it flies off opening the path forward and then cheese it to zero with arrows/magic if you want a quick run to the boss. There is no way to avoid the first cheese since you need to get it to half health to open up the shortcut that lets you run past it. Amazing game but was still so disappointed the only way you could fight the two dragons was cheesing them back when I played the PS3 original.
