It's pretty horrible on Xbox One too. I guess I'll be using it as a simulator until it goes on sale for PS5. I'm hoping for a PC port too because that means mods.

I went into Best Buy on a whim and I was the first customer of the day. I scored their last PS5 and Elden Ring. Lucky day

Random newbie Q: I have a PS4, and have always been a physical game copy person. But lately all the PS store sales have been getting me to bite so have acquired a few digital only copies.

As you know there's limited space on the PS4, when I install a new game sometimes there's not enough room so I delete games, and reinstall them when I want to play them again. But I've only ever done it with physical copies.

My question is this - if you delete a digital copy, are you able to bring it back afterwards the same way? I'm a little worried the digital ones will disappear forever if I do that, or I wouldn't even know where to find them on my PS4 if I want to reinstall..

They’re in your library. When you want to reinstall them you just click on them and go to install.

I can't remember exactly what it's called, but on the main menu all the way to the right there's a library option or something, in there you can re-install owned games

Yeah, generally on most digital platforms you can always download your previous purchases even after their licenses expire and are taken off the storefront. I am sure there are exceptions but that seems to be the case for the most part?

Unless the entire platform dies of course.

Just popped my head into a Best Buy about PS5s and they randomly had 1 left..I can't believe it! Finally on board with current gen, fired up.

...of course that would happen right after I bought a bunch of digital PS4 games on the PS Store a couple days ago haha, but it's a good problem to have.

EDIT: Then 20 mins later I run into Andrew Mangiapane. The world was briefly my oyster on Sunday evening..

But you still play the Digital PS4 games on the PS5, its all the same. If you have an external USB on your PS4 you can even use that on the PS5 for PS4 games storage.

Diablo Immortal set to launch June 2 and a surprise announcement of a PC launch the same day with crossplay/cross save support.

Hah I might have to get this to get the nostalgia. One place I worked most of the team were gamers so Friday afternoons was beer and ET.

Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory was released 19 years ago, and is one of the greatest multiplayer shooters ever to appear on the PC. Sadly, some younger readers may never have had the pleasure of playing it, as it had never been released on Steam. Until today!

One of my favorite video game voice samples of all time. Spent years saying that in random situations because of this game.

Awesome game and truly is one of the best MP games ever.

I dusted off the old guitar from Xbox360 and loaded up CloneHero on my PC, downloaded all of the songs from all of the games (And many community songs)

Just sat back listening to music playing on easy, its cool to see projects like this revive old games.

In LEGO Star Wars some of the characters have special interactions if you have them together.

Have been putting in some decent hours with Returnal. I would say it’s extremely hard, incredibly frustrating, but also entertaining and what seems like an interesting storyline so far. Only made it to the second biome at this point though.

If you think it’s extremely hard and incredibly frustrating now, just wait til the third biome.
