New owner..woot

Is it normal for the home screen to be super laggy? Like the tiles take forever to load?

Same goes for the PS Store

No. It should he pretty quick imo.

Re: PlayStation 5

It shouldn't be, have you rebooted the system?

No. It should he pretty quick imo.

Thanks guys. It's smooth now.
Wasn't sure because it happened more than once and just didn't seem right. Probably just network lag.

Did what I said I wouldn't do: I was able to get a PS5 via the GameStop offer. Smooth buying process. I really like it. The graphics on MLB The Show 20 (historical rosters) are just eye popping!

Re: PlayStation 5

Has anyone had an issue where if it’s been more than 8+ hrs from the last time you turned your system on, when you attempt to turn it on with the wireless controller, the system doesn’t respond?

Been dealing with this for a few days and the only solution so far has been to completely power down the system(usually doing this by unplugging/plugging it back in)and then it will detect my controller.

I have not but I almost always shut my system completely down between uses. You might try (if you haven't) plugging your controller back into the system to let it pair again. In my history with the last few Playstations, that has solved my problems 95% of the time. If that doesn't work, I'd try resetting the controller. Good luck!

Welcome to the PS5 club, Mike. Enjoy the system!

The frame rate improvements on MLB 20 are very noticeable as well. Felt like I was playing the game for the first time again when I switched over to the PS5.

Re: PlayStation 5

Spent the last week doing what the PS5 was intended for:

Playing a game made in 2012/13.

Just finished Bioshock Infinite and the Burial at Sea DLC. I'm partly joking here but this game and the entire Bioshock story/multiverse thing going on is amazing. It just took me years to get to it.

I like my PS5 a lot and would not go back but it has been annoying not having enough new games that interest me. Some of that is getting older and not wanting to buy everything that releases but there's definitely a shortage of quality titles too.

I'm ready for games to get away from cross gen. The pro is that I can share games with my kids on their PS4 Pro but selfishly I want the best experience possible on the console I have.

That's what I pretty much have done so far. Mostly I just played PS4 games that were optimized for PS5. That's likely what I'll mostly be doing for the remainder of the year and beginning of next year.

Like I said before, I think 2023 is when we start to see less cross gen. By 2024, is when I see cross gen fully getting left behind. GoW:R is the last known major cross gen Sony game, I think. While it'll likely look and play great, it's hard to not imagine if that game was developed for PS5 exclusively. It might be that we're at the point of diminishing returns, but most of these next gen versions are just "prettier". But for me, visuals aren't the top priority. I want to see next gen gameplay and games that aren't built around the restrictions of last gen.

Once the consoles are more accessible, then we'll see more publishers go current gen only. I wonder how a game like Gotham Knights will fare sales wise going next gen only. As was said before, that's a cross gen game that likely had optimization problems with last gen. Pretty much throughout the year, they have been showing tidbits of the game to keep it revelant. Which I think should help them sales wise.

Re: PlayStation 5

Is there a website or list that shows which older games we can play on the PS5? [emoji102]

Most of the games I will be playing for the rest of the year will be from the PS Plus Extra tier lol. I'm already leaning towards passing on 2k23 this year and likely will wait to play GOW until sometime early next year. If I could have waited to get the PS5 until around now, I would have. But, don't regret it because of the availability.

Don't know about all games that can be played on PS5 , but these are a couple of the sites that show PS4 games that are optimized for the PS5.

Playing optimized games like Tomb Raider SoTR and Gow on the PS5, is a better experience. Especially with the 60 FPS

I go there a lot. If it was on the PS4 it's likely you can play it on PS5. Physical PS3 games don't work, and even the digital versions they have are emulated/streamed.

Re: PlayStation 5

I think there’s only like 8 PS4 games that don’t work on the PS5
