I mean I think c-tier devs who are assigned to a major IP can still come into their own and shine with proper guidance from veteran developers (like Mercury Steam did with Metroid Dread) but lmao at the idea that they’d ever get that kind of guidance from Konami

Any of y'all know how the Judgment sequel runs on PS4, or should I just wait until I get a PS5?

I'm seeing some comments elsewhere that it basically runs the same as the first game, which ran fine (in my layman's opinion), but figured I'd ask here.

The story goes that Konami was really excited after seeing RE2 remake sales numbers but didn’t want to take the time and put the work in themselves so contracted Bloobwr who promised to get the job done quick.

I don’t think Konami understands that Silent Hill, while popular, was never a blockbuster in the scale of Resident Evil. This reminds me of the 00s/early 10s when Japanese companies were chasing call of duty/gears money

Common misconception that; that fun is relaxing. If it is, you're not doing it right.
Just tried out Deep Rock Galactic (was free with PS+ a few months ago, IIRC) with a friend, pretty good stuff. I was worried the dwarf stuff would veer into cringe territory but it's not too bad.

You can plug a mouse and keyboard and play it like on PC if you want. Fun game.

Hold a national day of mourning and spend millions of tax payer dollars to host an extravagant funeral.

Joking aside, depends on what you want to do - PS5s are easier to find now (though pricier, I think), but depending on how its died, you could always see if there's an option to fix it.

Might be worth a try and contact support and at least ask if it's fixable. Depending on where you live, getting another PS4 might be expensive enough to justify paying for a possible repair or even get a PS5 if you can.

It is so trash they have officially announced they're just not supporting last gen consoles at all anymore including the DLC.

Don't worry though, they made sure the anime tie-in includes a scantly clad extremely underage looking girl because they didn't want to tell the anime studio no.

“She's best girl, but I feel a little bit guilty to say it because I was one of the people on the creative team to actually vote Rebecca out of the original cast during pre-production. CD Projekt Red first got the character design for Rebecca and they were like 'She's a loli. Lolis don't exist in Night City. It doesn't fit the Cyberpunk 2077 aesthetic'."

Trigger’s response, according the developer: “No, the loli must stay.”

You have a few things you can try, whether it's worth it will depend on what model PS4 it is, the earlier it is the easier/cheaper it will be. I had a look online and it doesn't look like causes of this are too extreme (you probably won't have to replace a motherboard or solder anything), but these aren't guarantees.

First, even though it's out of warranty, you CAN send it to Sony and pay them like $100 to fix it. As long as the console is physically fine (you didn't obviously drop it or smash it) and doesn't have bugs inside of it they'll do it (and if they decide not to they won't charge you anything, even eating the shipping cost to and from their repair centre). ymmv but I've had a few fixed this way in Canada and it was around a 1-week turnaround every time, including during the pandemic.

If you don't want to go this route, here are things you can try:

- It may be possible to fix this in software, so see if you can get into safe mode and try some stuff, up to and including a full factory reset, although that'll kill your saves and screenshots that you didn't upload elsewhere, as well as unsynced trophies. If it works it's free.

- This will also kill your saves/screenshots that weren't backed up, but you can try replacing the hard drive. These are quite cheap because they're standard laptop hard drives (make sure you get sufficiently thin ones, the chunkier ones won't fit), and you can pull one from an existing laptop if you have one lying around if you don't want to spend the money. 2.5" SSDs also work. In either case, you'll also need a USB stick that you download the PS4 firmware to, the file you want is the "full restore" one that's around a gig.

- Finally, you can try to replace the power supply. Since this is proprietary you will have to special order one from somewhere. Prices might be different now, but PSUs for "wedge" PS4s were around $50 and they go up in price depending on how recent the model is, with PS4 Pros being expensive enough that you probably want to go the Sony route if you can. This isn't too onerous to do but you do need to remove the warranty stickers and use one of those security torx drivers to open it, these are cheap and readily available on Amazon. If you do this without loving with the hard drive you can avoid losing any data.

Steve Yun posted:

The store page actively discourages you from playing the game on a base or slim PS4. You CAN do it, and it's mostly crash-free now, but it's a rough time and you really feel the console struggling with certain things.

PS4 Pro is somewhat unofficially the "minimum specs" for the game in PC terms. The game for the most part is stable and has decent performance if you're patched to 1.5 or 1.6. That said, it won't be getting any further patches, you have to go next gen for that, which is what you want to do if you can.

All of that being said, the disc version with all of the "day one" bundled physical extras has been as low as $10 Canadian and it upgrades free to the PS5 version with a disc drive.

Yeah, it's about 8 years old, one of the Destiny bundle versions. I'm in the process of moving, so I'll probably just wait until that's all done before I figure out what to do.

I got it on launch prior to them removing it from the store, and it ran fine on my Pro. I wouldn't try it on a base model, though.
