THPS is near unplayable on the PS5 pad. Sticks have too much travel, and revert is on L2/R2 not L1/R1. Impossible to land a trick then revert into a manual.

I've always used the D-pad to play Tony Hawks and find the stick pretty much useless for them, which is why I struggle to play the Tony Hawk games on any platform other than the PlayStation. I think revert has always been on the R2 for the PS games.

I’ve always used the dpad except on the GC, but the dpad on this is next to useless. Can’t do tight turns, buttons too stiff.

 

Not had any issues with other PS5 games and the dpad though!

I do find the dpad on PS5 to be a bit worse than PS4; stiffer and a little fussy with diagonals at times.

I originally played the remake on Xbox and the PlayStation 5 dpad is a million miles better than that so I’m loving it. Plus the little resistant trigger when you revert/switch is just 😍

I only played them on the DC (and the isometric gba ones) so quite a few of these remastered tracks I almost had difficulty recognising what with the fancy new lighting and that. 

The 2nd challenge level in the underpass skate park thing is much darker when there isn't just blanket lighting everywhere. 

It's like flat TV lighting and movie lighting difference

After all the hype surrounding Yakuza, I’m finding it pretty boring an hour in. Shall persevere for a bit longer, though.

i know lots of people say this about media but trust me when i say the first hour of yakuza 0 is completely unrepresentative of the experience you're going to have

 

EDIT: wait i thought this was the gamepass thread, i haven't played yakuza 7 yet but i assume it's the same kind of experience

The intro alone of this video shows why it's worth persevering.

It's a very slow start. Takes a good 3-4 hours, character building/setting a scene. Then it gets good.
