What do you mean?

Another Logitech owner here. Love it.

They’ve done it when stuff has been accidentally relisted. We’ll find out in a few days.

It's a 100th of the correct price. It's definitely getting fixed and mostly likely refunded. Still worth a go all the same.

The inner box of the original PS VR was good for keeping the headset in between uses. Hoping Sony will do something similar with the packaging here.

According to the PlayStation Direct site:

 

I feel like the hold can't be for the full amount if you're pre-ordering something months away, though. At the risk of exposing my ignorance regarding credit cards, surely they'd just do a £1 pre-authorisation charge?

Sounds like what they're doing. Then being charged 7 days before.

Finally won a game of The Eliminator! Thought that achievement would haunt me until Horizon 6 comes out.

RT update is out on PC. Around 17 GB.

The Xbox versions definitely don’t do 120 Hz.

I’m not sure I’d be doubting Jim Ryan in this case. Microsoft are all over the place with their stance on it. If I had to guess, I’d imagine that they want Call of Duty to remain on PlayStation, but also renegotiate the existing contract that probably would stop Call of Duty going on Game Pass.

It was always 60fps. Criterion were wizards at the time.

I’ve been playing the anniversary events and have had a bug since they added it where it forces me to set the waypoint to the Origins story every time I start the game even though I’ve already finished it.
 

It’s still my most played game on XBox due to Forzathon events but the series lost its way since they stopped forcing a progress path on you and let you choose whatever car / race you wanted to do. I only do the Forzathon events to get cars I’ve missed and thought the Hot Wheels DLC just as bad as the first time they did it. I wish they’d do something like Storm Island or the rally dlc again.

That bug is supposedly fixed in next week’s update. Also adds in-game ray tracing for the PC version.

I don't know if it's because I'm playing it more or that there's less content, but I definitely seem to be getting through the content in each successive game a lot quicker. I've pretty much finished all the non-online stuff and the weekly playlists aren't enough to make you want to play for the most part.

Hearing the FH3 music again during the anniversary playlist was pretty great though.

Perhaps but why turn profit down from PS owners? I think it will pan out the as Minecraft did.

 

Anyhow suppose going off topic a bit I guess... 

You could apply that to every game/IP they’ve taken over.

Personally, I’ve been using the August promotion for the past year or so to get a year of PSN for £30. They didn’t run the promotion this year, so I didn’t renew my sub. Didn’t renew my Nintendo either. Money’s tight and the value isn’t there.

They just tried to raise the price of Gold. It ain't going anywhere.

That was very recent though and tied to the release of Sonic Origins. My point was there weren't native Xbox One or Series S/X versions, it was just through BC.

Sorry, I should have quoted Popo, who said that the XBLA version is still available for purchase.

You can't buy Sonic 3 on the Xbox or Steam any more. They pulled them.

These prices are really, really high, aren't they? Weren't GPU supposed to get cheaper now that Crypto is in a down turn? 

 

They need people to buy the leftover 3000 cards.

the vita bombed so hard i don't think sony will ever get over the ptsd. they certainly don't have the studios to make it worthwhile.

I think that’s the problem both Nintendo and Sony have/had. A hybrid console is obviously working amazingly for Nintendo, but I don’t think Sony can do a hybrid without compromising their ability to compete technically with Microsoft.

Japan seems to be handheld land now. If Sony released another handheld they’d do pretty well. It’s just how it is.

Admittedly I haven’t played it for ages so might be mid-remembering, but I was comfortably running FH5 at 4K at about 70-80fps. I’ll probably see out this gen as the 3080 is still a beast IMO. The only reason I’d upgrade is if I decide to hand it down to my son to upgrade his 1650 super

It does mostly hit 60, but drops occasionally as Uzi said. So I'll no doubt force myself into an upgrade that I don't need and can't afford. 🤫

What games would you need a 4000 card for that a 3080 can't run at high settings/framerates? I thought a 3080 was already overkill for pretty much everything.

You can’t run Forza Horizon 5 at a locked 4K/60 on maxed settings with a 3080.

If it's just the display that's not working, you could maybe try remoting into the Xbox through the mobile/PC app?

Nope.
