I was browsing through the PS store and was looking out to buy a NFS title. Which one should I buy? Already have Heat & Hot pursuit remastered

My recently played has stopped working for about 7-8 months now, no matter how many times I try to fix it nothinh ever seems to work its just stuck forever. Ik its a minor inconvenience but GOD its so fkn annoying now. Ive read that its been an issue for ps5 users too but recently got fixed. My hours wont update at ALL and I'm supposed to have over 70 games but its still stuck at 20 :( the trophies work fine tho idk. maybe sony jut stopped caring the ps4 or smth

The whole thing is on sale for dirt cheap right now but I'm skeptical about how the game performance on the base slim model. Y'all think it's playable enough?? I'm totally fine with a stable 30 FPS btw

That's all I need

Should I upgrade I do have a ps5 but the ps4 pro looks better than the base ps4

How do I play wz now

Mine is:

- The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
- Red Dead Redemption 2
- Metal Gear Solid 5
- Uncharted 4

The trackpad is really funny to me. In a world where executives were quaking in their boots that mobile games were going to supercede traditional console games, it felt like a bit of a desperate bid to rope angry birds players to the PlayStation. There was a fair bit of buzz when this thing was announced, with people speculating how devs could make the most of the input device but I feel like that never came to fruition.

I can only think of two notable instances of touchpad use in any games I played. InFamous Second Son had a very rudimentary mini game where you dragged your finger on a scanner. The Witcher 3 did something I quite liked where different swipes on the trackpad opened different menus. This should've been a standard feature in every game.

Aside from that... not much hey? I would've loved if you could use it to scrub through the a playbar on YouTube at least.

For whatever reason my PS4 wouldn't update. I couldn't do a thing with it so I decided to upgrade my 10 year old TV instead and condemned my ps4. Buying a new console or PC didn't make sense to me at the time as it was coming into the summer and usually I'm busy playing outside after work.

I'm not a huge gammer but after a couple months of not having a console I was beginning to miss it. I decided to look at a ps5 and I couldn't believe that they are more expensive now than when they were released. So for the first time I entertained the idea of a gaming PC and started shopping around. At this point I now became aware of the ram crisis. Gaming PCs were equally as fucked.

I'm deflated at this point because there is no way I'm paying these massively inflated prices so I decided one last time to update the PS4. For some reason it worked.

To say I was grateful that it started working again is an understatement. I was a casual gamer before all of this but now that my PS4 started working again I wanted to start getting into some well viewed titles. I'm now deep into The Last Of Us part 1. What a game.

Now I'm looking at some YouTube videos on how to clean out my PS4. It has never been done and my fans are always at turbo speed so hopefully it helps when I get around to doing it this weekend.

For anyone out there unwilling to pay big prices to upgrade. Cherish what you have.

Happy gamming:)

I recently sold my ps5 but still have that pesky call of duty itch. Mw3 is free, so I tried that and it worked somewhat well, but I’m wondering if there’s a better cod to play on a basic slim ps4 in this late day and age. Thanks!

Just curious which games people want physcally before Sony pulls the plug. I hope and am tring all I can to make Sony change their mind. But I'm being realist Sony are full of them selves and doubt they will change course. Right now they think they can do no wrong. Just like they did when they released the PS3

Note: This is on extreme difficulty with HUD disabled.

I personally have only the objective marker, compass and ammo display turned on.

Tried to look for similar or better games but couldn't find any.

Metal gear solid V comes close. But weapon customization, jungle setting, tense gunfights were more enjoyable on Wildlands. And no bullshit bullet sponge enemies.

was wondering for those playing the BO2 port on PS4, is it populated with many players? I don’t think I wanna get a ps5 just for this game. I wanted to know, is it easy to consistently find lobbies and have a good time on ps4?

I feel like the entire PS5 generation has just been remasters of PS3 and PS4 games, with the only new games coming out either being movie games or gun and ball games. The PS4 is still getting third party support for physical releases, which is crazy to me, and as soon as they take away our ability to play physical games, as I'm sure they will, PlayStation as a brand will be dead to me. It sucks a lot considering I used to consider Sony the goliath of physical media, letting us use DVDs, Blu-Rays and CDs on the PS3, it's a shame how far they've fallen.

With the closure of JapanStudio, as well as the discontinuation of PSvita Remote play, there is absolutely nothing that appeals to me in regards to the PS5, if I do end up getting one, It will be once they are long obsolete and very cheap. I feel the game industry is currently the worst it's ever been, with dev cycles taking over 8 years to produce a single game, of which is made to be as corporate, soulless and profitable as possible as opposed to fun, It's a common tale but as soon as Sony began answering to shareholders as opposed to valuing customers, was when they lost me as a fan.

The PS2 days of smaller teams working on more experimental games are long gone and I've come to accept that, and I'll be more than happy playing Indie games on my pc and using my PS4 for older AAA titles.

Buying a used PS4 is much cheaper than buying a PS5, and honestly a lot of PS5 games are on PS4, sure they don’t run as well but they still look good.

Also, the PS4 still seems to be getting some releases, and there is a huge catalogue of games released throughout the years that are still great to this day.

The PS4 might be a great budget console in today’s gaming environment. I’m saying all this as someone who has and plays a PS5. To be honest, recently I hooked up my old PS4 just for fun and yea it still holds up.

It’s like 5am right now for me and I haven’t slept yet, I just felt bored so I wrote this, thanks for reading.

I used to be a huge console kid. I had a few Nintendo systems, a PS3, then a 3DS. That was about ten years ago. Life happened and gaming fell off my radar completely.

A while back I saw a bundle on marketplace: a PS4 Slim with a handful of games like Bloodborne, RDR2 and Hogwarts Legacy. I grabbed it not really knowing what I was getting into.

Now I'm slowly building a backlog of games I always wanted to try, and working my way through Bloodborne first. It's very brutal but rewarding, and as a first game to get into after a long while it's been a blast. This brings me back to how I felt when I was a kid except now I actually have the money to buy the games I couldn't afford back then.

Anyway, figured I'd share in case there were others who also felt the same.

I only bought my ps4 pro in 2020, I was playing on pc before that. With uni and work, I didn’t get to play much in the past four years, now I’m about work full time, I have so much games to catch up on. I have not finished last of us and yet to even start the Assassin creed series . I’m looking at another 5-6 years before I will need to upgrade. By then, ps6 will be out so I could either get a cheap ps 5 or go back to PC since all games are going to be digital.

Not much of a question, but just curious if anyone else is in a similar boat?

As someone who has been building a digital library for more than a decade, I'm honestly terrified. It leaves me with a few questions:

- Will our digital libraries even work after the shutdown?

- Will we still be able to redownload games we legally own, and will it download their updates and patches?

If the answer to these is "no," then what are we actually paying for?

Hey all,

Very quick background: I grew up on PlayStation as a kid and teenager, but disconnected from the brand almost altogether from the PS4 generation onwards. I’ve not owned a PS5 (nor do I plan to until that generation is end of life) and most of my gaming happens now on a PC handheld, or a retro handheld console via emulation.

That said - I’ve always loved PlayStation games - just not their business practices. With the recent physical disc announcement, I’m hunting down a PS4 Pro console and wanting to build a nice physical library of PS4 exclusives.

Would love some general collecting tips given we are well past the consoles’ official life - and some exclusives you love that are must-play games.

Thanks heaps, looking forward to chiming in in this community a bit more! Happy Gaming from Australia.

I want games you can put in the drive bay completely offline and play like the in the PS1/PS2 days.

What are the best games that fit that criteria?
