Sounds really good. Nice additions and I hope they keep them coming.

aragon1041d ago

Has anyone tested the tv audio? That’s actually cool

preciousdeath1042d ago (Edited 1042d ago )

Dang, no VRR or 1440p toggle.

darthv721042d ago

Not this time but its coming.

ActualWhiteMan1042d ago

We dont know for sure.... it would be smart but I dont want to get my hopes up.

Aussieguy1041d ago

So is Haley's Comet 😂

dumahim1042d ago

Still waiting for Sony to enable VRR from last years TV too.

CaptainHenry9161042d ago

If it's already over a year I don't think that's going to happen. I'll be surprised if it does happen

dumahim1041d ago

@CaptainHenry916

It was an advertised feature they said would be added via a firmware update, so if they don't do it they're risking a class action lawsuit.

Neonridr1041d ago

isn't VRR just enabled or not? Does it matter if your TV is from this year or last? Sorry, just not following here.

dumahim1041d ago

@Neonridr

The TV has to support it as well. For the Sony x900h they said 120 Hz and VRR would be added later via a firmware update. They added 120 Hz, but not VRR yet. Looks like it has been just over a year now and they haven't added it yet.

Can I has ability to do custom Platinum acreenshots?:(

Applejack1042d ago

He’s referring to the PS5 being able to take screenshots when you earn trophies.

dumahim1041d ago

I'd be happy with just them removing that horrible black part that covers up a large part of the screenshot.

Deathdeliverer1042d ago

Man. Just going to wait and see who else has some drives out and I’m going with 1TB or better.

MIDGETonSTILTS171042d ago

I really don’t mind using an external to migrate ps5 game files. It takes 5 minutes to install a game on the SSD once a copy is made on the external.

Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree Preview - Game Informer

Marcus Stewart - "My biggest takeaway from Shadow of the Erdtree is that – surprise – it’s more Elden Ring. It’s the most unexciting take imaginable, but outside of the intriguing yet not immediately noticeable wrinkle added by the Scadutree upgrades, it’s a new excuse to revisit a world I love. It’s tough to get a sense of the expansion’s narrative implications and to be honest, that’s the last thing I care about in this game, as interesting as its lore is on the surface. All I want is to experience a new gauntlet of trials and surprises, and Shadow of the Erdtree seems poised to deliver that and then some."
