Between installing and running this game on the PS5 next to a Call of Duty, that is pretty much the SSD full ?

 

Should not be, Google says COD is 130GB & Cyberpunk 102GB?

Just room for 2 more big games then

 

All depends on how many games you have on the go at any time? I only tend to play one game at a time so for me storage is not an issue.

I suppose if you are always a gamer like that, one at a time, and never go back and replay anything, that works for you. 

 

If you did go backwards you have a long install wait and re-download of patches etc. every bloody time otherwise. When a 50GB patch hits, that is about half a day for most. 

 

The storage on the PS5 (for me) is an issue, and the games are only going to get bigger (with higher fidelity graphics in play, those files aren't going to get smaller)

 

Last article I'd read about PS5 storage is that Sony still hasn't sorted anything out yet (externals etc.) ?

Yeah nothing we can do but wait for Sony to sort out the extra storage options. I don't expect anything to be announced in the next six months.

There aren't even enough big PS5 games out to make this an issue right now

 

I've been playing backwards compatiable PS4 titles since release so yes for some gamers I expect this to be a current issue.

Not every game will be 50gb plus - so if it is an issue to not have beyond 20-30 games on the go

 

I have a few PS5 and a few PS4 games installed - about 9-10 in total and I have no time to constantly juggle them all and nowhere close to filling up the drive so I really wonder if people just bung the drive up but if they consistently shoot between double digit games all in one time.

 

I would guess no.

Ever since moving, my internet speeds are around half of what I had before, so large sized downloads will take hours to finish, so currently the luxury of randomly downloading something has vanished for now, so the larger the storage the better really.

Real gamers remember the time when, with a spectrum and a getto  blaster, you had to load the entirety of the game every. Single. Fucking. Time. And while watching the volume control.

 

And that’s without mentioning the lenslock with Elite.

 

 


And Tomahawk!

I had it too!


I once turned the rotors off at 4000 feet, and turned them on again in time that my chopper was two feet off the ground before it stopped falling and started to re-ascend...now that’s l33t sk!llz for you! A gaming moment for the history books.

Even at that age I had little patience for skills and simulation. I prefered harrier attack. I was good at harrier attack.

I swear my Amstrad 464 cassette player felt like it took huge amounts of time. Now, if I have a one second delay in my refresh on a page I go bananas.

I had a c64 and lastgen the load times were starting to mirror the old turboloaded c64 games - I know because I still play them from tape sometimes! Most games were about 3.5 mins but I had a couple that could load in 2 :P

 

Some of the really dodgy load times last gen would be pushing that

As an aside if anyone is going to wait on this now that the reviews are out but have worked themselves up into a Cyberpunk frenzy, may I recommend Shadowrun: Dragonfall. It's the best Cyberpunk game I've played.

Is there any way to play this on a console do you know?

Despite the fact that elves and orcs are about as far away from the ethos of cyberpunk as you can possibly get (and  represent almost everything cyberpunk and punk itself were a direct reaction to) Shadowrun: Dragonfall is probably the best cyberpunk game ever made, and one of the few that captures the feel of the genre. Like, it's all about dragons and magic, but the detail and vibe of cyberpunk is there - one early mission involves you trying to track down a working DVD player so you can actually read someone's decades-old message, which fits in nicely with the general feel of the genre. It takes place in an ethnically diverse ghetto; admittedly, it's a pretty U-rated ghetto which doesn't feel very dangerous, but the intent is there.

 

There's a list of supposedly cyberpunk videogames here (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Cyberpunk_video_games), and it's generally utterly laughable. It's more like a list of games that look a bit like Blade Runner; I can think of about six games on there that even vaguely fit into the genre. Although for all that cyberpunk as a genre is basically William Gibson's books, along with several million other extremely pale imitations.

Thirded on Shadowrun Dragonfall, and I'll also add Shadowrun Hong Kong. Both excellent and very atmospheric cyberpunk RPGs and an absolute must if you loved the SNES orginal.

Alas, no. It is available on Android and ios if either of those are viable for you, but otherwise PC only :(

Not on Android anymore, sadly. They were delisted a few years back.

(though it may be argued to be space opera in the same way (the much missed) Iain Banks's work is, while both are focussed on the ramifications-of-post-humanism, rather than the noir-thrillers-in-corporate-hell of Gibson and his most recognisable imitators, Schizmatrix is still nihilistic, dystopian and focussed on 'the revolution' in a way which makes it identifiably cyberpunk in a way the messy utopia of the Culture isn't)

 

(also it has the word matrix in, so must be cyberpunk)

 

(yes, that means Commando is also cyberpunk by extension. No, I won't be taking any questions at this time)
