The demo for this came out on Steam this weekend. Good stuff. I can't wait for the full release.

I wouldn't necessarily take it in any kinda fantasy leage or anything, but I think I'm gonna be into it :wink:

I made the upgrade to the PS5 Pro and traded in my launch P:S5 today.

I honestly think if you start having problems like I did on my launch PS5 make the trade. Or if you got the ends to get it now go for it.

A lot of people are suspecting come next year once Trump is back in office consoles and a lot of electronics and tech gadgets will skyrocket in price if he does follow through on the huge tariffs he will put on China, Japan, Mexico, Canada and other countries.

I would just import one myself if that's the case. No way I'm dropping retail on one. The MSRP will be lowered by this time next year because they aren't moving.
 
Pretty sure reports are that the PS5 pro is selling as good as, if not better than, the PS4 pro for the same sales window. The pro wasn’t meant for all users. PS4 pros made up about 20% of all PS4 sales and looks to be the same for PS5. Sony sees it as a win. So as far as pro discounts go….. I wouldn’t expect one anytime soon.
 
I've played past the lake monster in RE 4 remake, and I'm not really feeling the pull to continue. I dunno if this improves upon the original in the way that RE 2 did.

I don't find the gunplay satisfying. Like RE 2, the zombies tank a lot of your shots, but RE 4 has so many more enemies to shoot so it's kind of a drag. Maybe I gotta upgrade the weapons more.

They shouda stuck with laser sights for every gun. The crosshairs suck.

Bro I literally played RE4 remake during month of Nov. I only haven't finished it since I haven't had time, but even if you played the OG, it's still a somewhat new but similar experience. RE4 is about shooting them in the foot and then using Melee. I agree, it's a lot of enemies, but it's exciting surviving after a big engagement. And cmon bro, no1 gets da beam, for 10 spinels. So much better things like da triple scope. Plus your aim should be nice to go for head shots or leg shots alrdy, word 2 bro. I still respect ur opinion, but so much more happens in da game later, which I am excited to come across in Remake form.

I paid <$675 at launch from Gamestop with the $25 disco. The PRO was hard coded as exempt from the promo but the way the page is displayed, very misleading so they honored it.

Very happy with it so far, couldn't go back. Last time I looked, GS still has that $25 off $250 plastered on the website for everything.

Sidebar - the last pre-Christmas disc drives are restocking. Amazon dumped yesterday morning, delivery ranging from 12/22 to mid-January. Best Buy is selling today but its regional - store pick up only. Keep an eye out. Target is pretty much impossible, they drop like 2 untis and its regional pick-up only as well.

edit, yeah still there:

Yesterday I was hanging out with a friend of mine in Murrieta/Temecula yesterday . The first GS store we went to told us they were not taking in anymore launch PS5's for trade in due to that store being at capacity because of so many people trading towards the PS5 pro. I went to the 2nd store in Menifee and that's where I traded mine in. The nearest GS nearest to me in Escondido only had 1 PS5 pro left. Also stopped by 2 BB's in the area and you could see the racks at customer service desk where people had placed online orders and were waiting to pick them up. So yeah Sony isn't having problems with the PS5 Pro not selling. Also if GTA VI drops next holiday season and if there is a PS5 pro and GTA VI bundle that alone will move and sell units. No way within a year the pro goes on discount. Maybe the PS5 slim might get like a $50 drop in price a year from now.

Damn so I just found out from a friend of mine that Best Buy basically holds inventory stock for the yearly total tech members that pay $200 a year. The PS5 Pro/Slim disk drive has been showing as being able to add to cart but I could not check out.

My friend who has the BB total tech yearly membership logs into the website and is able to get 2 disc drives for me and him. Shipped to him and will be delivered to him by this Thursday.
 
I only played for about 15 minutes because I want to finish Metaphor but Indiana Jones is one of the best looking games I’ve seen. Xbox got one for sure.
 
Sucks my GPU expired, but I'll check it out eventually. Anyway I finally got into some action in SH2.
