    Well, to kickoff.

    I got Spider-Man(duh) and I mentioned before I downloaded Killzone: Shadow Fall & God of War III: Remastered.

    Furthermore, I added to my PlayStation Now list; every other God of War game, every Ratchet & Clank game I could find, every Killzone game, and Resistance 3.

    On PlayStation Now, what does the symbol that looks like this ‘=,?

    It appears on the right hand side, and I had missed the meaning of it.

    I just discovered folders and now that I’ve added a 2TB hard drive, and downloading games Willy nilly, I cant decid what folders I want...

    By genre or what I’m trending or multiplayer/co-op/free/disc/full etc, lol.

    Well for me i have a 4TB Western digital external H-D connected along with the same drive in my ps4 pro. So what i do is use my main drive in ps4 games just for important games that are currently playing. Then the external is for games installed that are the lesser important games. So i can shift data of games and saves from external to main then back if i pick up the game against

    Anyone else pick up Onimusha? It was a pain in the ass to find it since Best Buy couldn't find their copies, Target didn't even have it in their system, so I had to go to Gamestop. They only got in 3 copies.

    2TB internal, 1TB(for now) external. I might just stick with 2TB max for external as I don't want to use larger 3.5" drives that need a separate power source.

    Shame Sony is still kinda being an arse about Crossplay though.

    I'm just getting sick of this attitude game companies get each generation.

    Nintendo got cocky with the N64 and lost out to Playstation.

    Sony got cocky with the PS2 and screwed up the PS3, losing to Microsoft.

    Microsoft got cocky with the X360 that they sabotaged the X1, losing to Sony.

    Sony has now gotten their cockiness back with the PS4 that they are going to repeat the same mistake they did with the PS3 when they release the PS5.

    I miss it when Sony showed they cared about the fans and had the E3s when they were having Indie developers coming out to talk about their games and stuff. Now, they've forgotten their customers and fans yet again. Hell, they even got rid of Kevin (or whatever his name was) during this generation which was a real shame.

    I like that it's backwards compatible. Something the PS4 should have had. Yes, I hard it's a different hardware set, but still. It's one of the reasons why I still don't own a PS4.

    Then frankly you will never own one. Emulating Cell architecture is from what I have read, a huge pain in the arse.

    Thankfully, going with x86 architecture from PS4 onwards should mean backwards compatibility should be a non-issue for a while.

    As for PS5, I’m now kind of glad I didn’t bother buying the PS4 Pro but I cannot say I’m chomping at the bit for this upgrade.

    While that is true, and honestly probably something more akin to the N64 problem than anything... We do have a working PS3 emulator that plays some games pretty well.

    I’m certainly not saying it’s impossible but given the obvious issues they are running into it might be they’re going to just consider the PS3 era emulation in newer devices an untenable task. It’s a shame because it produced some amazing games.

    Welp,.....I guess it's time to start saving money once again to get this. I heard about this news from Game Informer. They didn't have anymore info other than what is already out to everyone else online so it's equal to everyone. Lets just hope that Sony doesn't down the road after PS5 been out announce a PS5 pro. I'm not going to go down that road again hopefully.
