Oh. Then...well, I'm confused. I guess it's just whoever put together this image wanted to have both 'Premium' and 'Extra' on it.

My interpretation of the image is that HFW and RE7 will be on Premium, Scarlet Nexus and BL3 will be on Extra.

I had hoping that Wanted: Dead would breath some life into the AA mid-budget realm that mostly died during the PS3/XB360 era and we’d get some of that experimental stuff back but it sounds from reviews here and critics that it’s too throwback-y and repetitive without bringing much new to the table. I dunno, maybe others will be inspired by the idea of it if not the final product itself. Kind of a bummer. Still, I’ll give it a spin at a price drop.

I don't know if this is the right thread for the question, but uhh, here goes. I have an LG C2 tv, and I have HDMI link set up in my PS5. The only problem is, when my TV is in sleep mode, and I start casting something to my chromecast thing, the PS5 sees that I turned on the TV and helpfully goes out of sleep mode and switched my current source to its HDMI input. Turning off HDMI link in my PS5 settings fixes this behavior, but I still want to be able to turn my TV on by starting up my PS5 and (optionally) having the PS5 go to sleep when I put my TV to sleep mode.

Anyone had similar issues?

HDMI-CEC is and always has been a messy clusterfuck of contradicting implementations

What usually happens if you have more than one device using it plugged in over HDMI is that the TV will accept a ‘power on’ signal from any of them, but doesn’t switch inputs until it wakes up.

This means if the last input you were using is connected to the device you’re not actually trying to use now, it immediately sees that the TV woke up and will try to be helpful and power on itself.

Some devices have more granular settings so you could do something like only have it work one way with turning on the device turning on the tv, which is perfect for a games console since you’re going to have to grab the controller anyway and that’s got a big ol’ power button right in the middle, but Sony haven’t implemented that because they’re a terrible company who want you to suffer. Pretty sure Xbox can do it :v:

See if your tv will let you turn off sending the ‘power on’ signal to the input on the PS5 I guess?

Or turn it off and accept the maximum remotes lifestyle.

I had that issue with a Fire TV stick and I ended up having to just turn off HDMI Link and deal with dealing with the TV state manually. I know that's not helpful but it seems like a fundamental issue with PS5's implementation of the HDMI-CEC feature. The Xbox Series X lets you independently choose whether turning on/off the PS5 turns on/off the TV and vice versa, whereas PS5's implementation seems like an all-or-nothing deal, which makes it susceptible to turning on the PS5 when you're not trying to use it. It'll definitely happen (by design) if you just power the TV on and the input already is set to the PS5's input, but I've also experienced it happening even if it's not on the PS5's input.

There does seem to be a lot more stuff that’s literally just a VR version of an entire lAAA game coming out on PSVR2, like Hitman 3, Resident Evil, Gran Turismo, etc. If Sony just keep doing more of that I’ll be very pleased with the PSVR2, even if they didn’t attempt to make a big AAA PSVR2 exclusive (which, again, I’d be surprised if they didn’t given how much effort they’ve put into the psvr2 already)

They should make the new AC game playable completely in VR

It's crazy how sensitive CEC can be, sometimes the particular daisychain of HDMI devices over ARC just doesn't play right. I'm currently having a bit of a wild time figuring out that poo poo myself after switching from a soundbar to an AVR. The soundbar worked well with CEC but was also using optical, and I think I had PS5 directly to tv. The AVR is def more finicky with CEC and everything centralized so far, I'm trying to figure which boxes I can tick so that turning on my PS3 doesn't also turn on my PS5 for some reason. It's very dumb.

It's weird how this narrative keeps going, HZD was highly acclaimed at launch and went to sell 20 million copies, spawned a great expansion, a fantastic sequel and what seems to be a decent VR game.

If anything Horizon and the Decima Engine boosted Guerrilla's status within Sony.

Yeah I'm having issues too since ive changed my receiver. The tv and receiver dont really want to talk to each other over arc and I've had to run an optical line to get audio from the tv. Turning the ps5 on used to turn both the tv and the receiver on but now it only turns the tv on, even though the signal passes thru the receiver, very weird

Thought I'd share this from the PSVR2 thread. It's from the launch game Switchback. This guy posted a good long video of game play including the chunk at 2:30, which shows off how PSVR2 eye tracking can be used in game play. The game puts you in a room with a bunch of mannequins, which as we all know are inherently terrifying, but they will only move toward you when you blink. Blink too many times and they get close enough to attack you.
