The Playstation 5 thread

Look at what PS5 did to the so-called "Most Disciplined Country"

 

 

 

Crowd was such that they started pushing out all the store clerks. Police were called in and PS5 sales stopped immediately. Now all PS5 sales are happening via lottery (Lottery for chance to buy) or you have to be a premium loyalty card holder (Highest Tier) of the Game/Electronics store in the entire country of Japan. This crowd was one of the rare instances where the poor shop-owner dared to put up some stock on first-come-first-serve basis. Just that one mistake and the store guy got the full experience of what it was like to be a local train/bus passenger here in India. This is during the National Emergency for Covid being declared in the entire country BTW.

 

If this is the stock situation in Japan - the PlayStation's Home Country, any wonder why we are being given such a low priority.

First casualty in PS5. Demon' Soul stopped working on my PS5 for some reason. It is stuck at main screen forever. Tried closing and restarting the game but that didn't work. Now, i am installing the game again but install speed is painfully slowly. It is slower than the speed of the update that it is downloading from the server. Other games, without disk, are working fine.

 

Disc based transfers are so slow. Max is around 30 MBps, but sometimes crawls at 5 MBps too. 

PSN downloads are much faster. 

And the noise the disc makes, scary AF.

I'm not 100% sure but I think something similar is happening to my order on FK. The order is qt nearest hub but suddenly got a message that it could not be delivered today and will be done in the next 3 days.

Around 5.50 was in a teams call, get a call on my phone from unknow mobile number. Couldnt pick it. 5.55 check the order status, it says You order has left the flipkart facility.

Trying to call back on the number, thinling it could be FK delivery guy, but the guy is disconnecting constantly. 

 

Let's see what happens tomorrow.

 

It's the courier chutiyapa. Very common nowadays. My game was not delivered and marked as rejected by customer. :ranting:

Digital is the door you need to open and step into. 

 

And rejected by customer happens to me every 15 days with BigBasket. They forget to send some stuff but I am made to believe I rejected it due to poor quality :lol:

The fresh install did not work. It is again stuck at main screen. Moreover, it is also freezing the console whenever i am trying to click PS button to close it forcefully. Now, trying to install a PS4 game to confirm whether it is the disk or the drive.

Japan has a very big groping problem in trains and subways, especially because of such congestion. Well short of being disciplined.

It's isn't about lack of it. The metros are super duper crowded and the train company takes great pride in punctuality which is why these pushers. Have seen a documentary on this years ago. Never been to Japan but the jap tourists I've seen in Europe are some of the most poised and respectful people ever. No wonder they are called the most well mannered nation.

Fifa next gen is so amazing! Exceptional graphics and smooth gameplay. Maybe a bit too much better for me given I'm coming from a one s.

 

Another things I noticed - they have used Adaptive triggers amazingly. Towards the end when players are tired - based on their stamina, the triggers feel super heavy to touch when you try to sprint and overall controller feels heavy. Difficult to explain in words. But nicely done!!:wub:
