TheMightyEthan Posted March 1, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2021 Idk, I don't know the PS4/Xbone -> PS5/Series is really a big enough jump to justify remakes, just resolution and framerate bumps. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Jack Posted March 1, 2021 Report Share Posted March 1, 2021 Okay, maybe not a remake, but definitely a remaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetalCaveman Posted March 1, 2021 Report Share Posted March 1, 2021 A remaster would be fun, IMO it still looks kinda good, so a patch to the current version would work, but a complete remaster/remake would be cool. 32 minutes ago, TheMightyEthan said: Idk, I don't know the PS4/Xbone -> PS5/Series is really a big enough jump to justify remakes, just resolution and framerate bumps. Comparing Bloodborne on PS4 with the Demon's Souls remake... I'd say for these games it IS worth a full blown remake, though I doubt they would do it. Bloodborne doesn't look as bad as Demon's Souls on PS3, but even with that, the difference between BB on PS4 and DS for PS5 is enough that I wouldn't mind if they went that route.

Mister Jack Posted March 1, 2021 Report Share Posted March 1, 2021 I don't really care as much about shiny new textures for Bloodborne as I do a 60 FPS framerate. The performance is the only serious knock I have against Bloodborne since it could dip pretty badly at times. I don't think Sony is gonna give us that for free, though.

toxicitizen Posted March 1, 2021 Report Share Posted March 1, 2021 (edited) Yeah, what Bloodborne really needs is a remaster or, at least, an update to boost the resolution and framerate and fix the fucked up framepacing. Not sure what a full-blown remake just a single gen later could possibly add of significance, tbh. Ray-tracing, I guess? But that's just lighting and could easily fall under the purview of a remaster. The game isn't that old, the 3D assets are still fine lol. There's very little to gain in rebuilding the entire game from scratch. Edited March 1, 2021 by toxicitizen 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted March 8, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2021 Super Mario 3D World + Bowsers Fury I'd been trying to hold off on this, and had started playing Mario Odyssey again* to try to fill that niche, but all that accomplished was making me want this even more, so here we are. *Side note, Mario Odyssey is a much much better game than I gave it credit for the first time around. I always knew it was good, but for whatever reason it didn't strike me as top-tier Mario. Now though I think it has supplanted Mario Sunshine as my favorite 3D Mario, which is quite the achievement since Super Mario 3D All-Stars just proved to me that Sunshine really was as good as I remembered.

Mister Jack Posted March 23, 2021 Report Share Posted March 23, 2021 (edited) My old headset was literally falling apart. I was lucky enough to get my hands on one of these. Apparently these are also being scalped. I have to say this one is super comfortable to wear.

Thursday Next Posted March 24, 2021 Report Share Posted March 24, 2021 Does it require a dongle? I've asked different people a million times and never get a straight answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Jack Posted March 24, 2021 Report Share Posted March 24, 2021 If you want to use it wirelessly, yes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The console has more fucking antennae than the entire fucking Apollo program but you still have to plug more shit in to connect some fucking headphones. Headphones which can be plugged into the fucking wireless controller and then don't need a dongle. It. Is. Maddening! Oh, thanks by the way. lol Edited March 24, 2021 by Thursday Next 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Jack Posted March 24, 2021 Report Share Posted March 24, 2021 Yeah it's disappointing but I just put the dongle into the USB slot and then put a usb-c to usb-c cable into the other port for everything else. If there is something I have to knock on the PS5's design it's that there aren't enough ports. Hooking up the VR alone took up both ports on the back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted March 25, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2021 What all do you need ports for? I have PSVR using both ports in the back, then I have a USB-C to USB-C plugged into that port in the front for charging the controller, which leaves the USB-A in the front for the dongle. I agree it's less than ideal to have the dongle in the front, but as far as number of ports it seems like enough. You could also probably use a USB hub in the back to get more ports back there.

Mister Jack Posted March 25, 2021 Report Share Posted March 25, 2021 Well I had to buy a new cable to use that port in the first place, which was an extra 20 bucks, so I didn't really appreciate that. But it was either that or constantly switch out between the controller and the dongle. I have plenty of usb-A to usb-c cables lying around, but I didn't have any usb-c to usb-c because that's not a thing I ever needed until now, and I'm a guy with a fair number of usb-c devices.

MetalCaveman Posted March 25, 2021 Report Share Posted March 25, 2021 Mine came with an A-to-C cable... Was it supposed to come with a C-to-C? I like wireless headsets with dongles, makes it so I can use it on multiple platforms, my old PS3 headset has seen use with PS3, PS4, PS5, PC and Switch.

TheMightyEthan Posted March 28, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2021 No, you're right, it was A-to-C. I was thinking it was C-to-C because I bought myself a longer C-to-C cable for charging the controller, because at launch there was a bug where the USB-A port on the front wasn't getting power in standby mode, so you couldn't charge a controller off of it. I wanted a longer cable anyway so I could charge while playing, so it didn't really affect me, just meant I bought a different cable.

Mister Jack Posted March 28, 2021 Report Share Posted March 28, 2021 I just wish they had included a C-to-C cable instead of an A-to-C cable. They cost about the same so I don't know what their basis for this decision was. I already have a ton of A-to-C cables lying around. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted March 28, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2021 Persona 5 Stikers Got a "Used - Like New" copy on Amazon that says it includes the unused bonus DLC code for $48, which is the cheapest I've found it anywhere, so I finally bit.

Baconrath Posted March 28, 2021 Report Share Posted March 28, 2021 It finally went on sale. Still miffed they didn't offer an upgrade option. I also copy pasted some lines into an ini file so it looks a bit better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a cool little indie puzzle platformer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted April 2, 2021 Report Share Posted April 2, 2021 Immortals Fenyx Rising (no colon!) This was on sale and I kinda found the Stadia demo okay. Figure even if it's not at its best on Switch I'm on a Lite so not like it'll be blown up to a 55" 4K TV. This was also on sale. I'd kinda wanted to hold of until the full thing was out but I'm aware that won't be for ages and hey £20 ain't too bad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
