  1. If I were to buy a PS5. I would love something with Purple in it! Maybe like a Purple Fortnite branded PS5 would be cool to see! I'm a purple nut 😛 Absolutely love anything purple!
  2. This sounds like a cool idea to customize your console. I wish Xbox would bring something like this out for their Xbox Series lines of consoles. I would love to have my branding on my xbox + controller. I would imagine these custom covers for the Playstation cost quite a bit since they're being customized?
  3. This sounds like Microsoft's Rewards Program. Has anyone used it yet on Playstation? Is it worth signing up for? Have you saved any money using it? Or is it just not worth it?
  4. Yes, PS3 games are streamed because the architecture from the PS3 is vastly different than the PS5 and it would require Sony to build a PS3 emulator into the system in order for PS3 games to be ran natively on the PS5, so to get around this, and because they are lazy, they make it so you have to stream the PS3 games and that's only available for PS Plus Premium subscribers I believe.
  5. Have you ever sorted this out, OP? I Believe you can rebuild the system database & software by booting it into safe mode. It sounds like it could be faulty system software or an update didn't install properly. Here's how to get into the safe mode menu: How to start your console in Safe Mode Turn off your console by holding the power button for three seconds. ... Once the console is off, press and hold the power button again. ... Connect the controller with the USB cable and press the PS button on the controller. You can read more about it here - https://www.playstation.com/en-us/support/hardware/safe-mode-playstation/
  6. The Dual Sense Edge has been announced and the release date has been set for January 2023 according to their Playstation Direct page, https://direct.playstation.com/en-us/accessories/accessory/dualsense-edge-wireless-controller.1000033578 It's a whooping $200! That's crazy! I'll stick to my normal standard controller.
  7. I feel consoles nowadays need larger than 1TB as standard storage because the game installs are so big now. I need a bigger external drive for my xbox one X. I know my boyfriend upgraded the storage to his PS5 with 2TB and it cost him almost $400 to do so. That's nearly the price of the console! it's crazy the price of storage expansion now!
  8. I only currently own a Playstation 4 that is barely used, so I guess I would say that one is my favorite model. I remember my brother having the PS2 growing up, but I remember it being a bit more bulky than the PS4 and I like my consoles to be slim if possible, so I would say the PS4 is my favorite model/design.
  9. Not much of a Playstation girl, so never played this game. My boyfriend said he's bought every version of this game from the PS3 to this PS5 remake and he says he feels like the jump from the PS4 to PS5 versions weren't significant enough to warrant the $70 price tag. He does say the game itself is great and wants me to try it some day. I probably will if I ever get my hands on a PS5.
  10. Nice one! My boyfriend got one from Playstation.com back in June! He loves it but says he wishes there were more exclusives he was interested in. We tend to game together more on the xbox, which is funny because when we met back in 2009, he was a huge playstation guy. I guess I converted him ❤️ 😛
  11. Some of the PS2 games I remember playing & enjoying when I was younger are: Crazy Taxi Grand Theft Auto Vice City Burnout 3 Sly Cooper Jak & Daxter I'm more of an xbox girl, but I do remember enjoying a few PS2 titles back in the day. 🙂

    Share Play

    I remember the only time I used Share Play was on PS4 and it was with a friend I had who I used to online game with on Xbox. He moved to PS4 and when he found out I had one it was Rainbow Six Siege if I remember rightly that we share played on because he wanted me to jump on and play for a little after we spent a lot of time playing Rainbow Six Vegas 2 so it was like old times hanging out on a game together even if it was through Share Play. That was the only time I ever used the Share Play feature and when I did it had a lot of disconnections, I am unsure if that was because of either one of our internet connections or not though.
  13. Not being much of a PlayStation user anymore like I used to be back when PS1 and PS2 were around, I can't say that I have many trophies at all. I know I have some trophies for some games that I played on PlayStation but without looking wouldn't be too sure exactly how many. Off the top of my head, I know games like Fall Guys and Call of Duty Advanced Warfare were some games I did get trophies in but many of the games I played have been on say Xbox.
  14. Oh, that is a sexy looking controller. As someone who is not keen on the PlayStation controller because of the button and analogue stick layouts on it, this would fit me perfectly if I was to ever play on PlayStation with it being so similar to the Xbox controller. I know with Nintendo I also do not have any really big issues other than sometimes getting confused with each button because they are in a different place to the Xbox controller but with the PlayStation controller, with the analogue sticks being pretty much parallel it can be quite uncomfortable. I do like the design of this controller though and the colors look awesome. The price tag is a little too high for me at the moment though but it's something I would definitely consider if I was to ever snag a PS5.
  15. Unless it's a game where there is just background music and you don't really need the sound at all, I tend to play my games with sound. For example, sometimes I play Roblox and that usually only has background music so you can pretty much play that muted without any issue but something like Call of Duty, Apex Legends or even Fortnite and Overwatch which are games I play, without sound they would become quite difficult to play with call outs and even the sounds of footsteps as well.
  16. Unless it's a game I am really interested in and cannot wait to jump into I will wait as long as it takes for the game to go on sale. The number of times I have jumped on a game that has released and bought it at full price and ended up being disappointed by it is very high and it's something I learned the hard way not to do in the future. Sometimes you are really lucky, and some games can go on sale about a month after their release but other times you could be waiting months and months for a sale price on the game. It's all about how long you want to wait for the game and how eager you are to play the game. It's also taking that chance and paying full price to be completely disappointed.
  17. I would have to say from experience of having to deal with developers and publishers I have had my fair share of great experiences and my fair share of absolutely terrible service as well. From my experience the best ones I have had dealings with who helped me out and bent over backwards to ensure my issues were resolved were Epic Games, Xbox and Nintendo. EA and Activision are two that I will always avoid having to contact unless I really have no other choice but to do so due to past experiences of getting in touch with them and never having my issues resolved at all.
  18. Yes, I do miss friends that I met through gaming. Back in 2018 I met a group of people on Saints Row, and we moved onto Rainbow Six Vegas 2 for the longest time where we met so many other friends who I often now sit and wonder where they are or if they even still game. It's crazy how one minute you can be gaming and having fun and then suddenly they no longer come online, and you wonder where they may be. It's true what they say, online friends can be some of the best friends you ever had, it's just a shame when you lose contact. Will always have the fun memories though, they can never go anywhere.
  19. At the moment my most favourite YouTubers would have to be LazarBeam, Muselk, Daz Games (Daz Black), iShowSpeed and Crayator. I often find myself wandering onto YouTube and will often find that these have created new videos and they are all equally entertaining and I just love to watch their videos. iShowSpeed is a new one I have come across due to my kids, his energy is just crazy, but he is very entertaining and a lot of fun to watch.
  20. No, I haven't ever been to an esports event in person, mainly due to the fact that I live in the UK, we don't always get many here that I know of and any we may get, I always feel nervous to want to go to them because of my anxiety and not being overly keen of crowded places. The most I have done it watch them live on say YouTube or Twitch when someone I watch or know of is taking part in an esports tournament and I find them very fun to watch.
  21. Yes, I love to watch Twitch streamers play in competitive tournaments, it's quite interesting to see how they play and when watching I have found myself picking up things and trying them out myself in games which has helped my gameplay in certain games. NickEh30 is one Twitch streamer I love to watch play Fortnite tournaments especially when he plays it cash cups. The games get so intense throughout and it's a lot of fun to watch how they handle the pressure in the games. I know I couldn't handle pressure like they do during big tournaments like that.
  22. With my anxiety and how I am around people socially there is no way I would be able to handle the stardom and the popularity that would come with being an esports pro, not in terms of going to tournaments that were filled with fans. Maybe if I was just an esports pro who only live streamed from say my own home it would be a different story, but I know as an esports pro, it would take a lot more than just streaming from your home and definitely not something I would be able to cope with at all. I prefer to keep myself to myself.
  23. No, definitely not. Competitive gaming is more where you gain something out of it rather than losing anything such as you get a payment for competing or get a payment for getting to a certain place in the tournament. Bingo is definitely not a competitive game and if you have to put money into it with the risk of getting nothing back then it is gambling and not competitive. I personally myself stay away from anything that is gambling as you nearly always get reeled in and end up going too far and losing more than you won and ending up in a mess.
  24. I haven't done it for a while now as they changed the way they did things, but I used to use ZLeague for Fortnite tournaments for Solo and Duo games and I would either play on my own or me and my daughter would play in tournaments. It wouldn't be a whole lot of money we would win but sometimes we would win something as high as about $20 which wasn't bad at all being that it was a free tournament. They unfortunately stopped doing Fortnite tournaments and now only seem to do Halo, Apex and Call of Duty Warzone and being I am not overly competitive in those games I don't have any use to play in the tournaments they offer now.
  25. It never fails to amaze me the excuses that they will use for cheating or hacking in a game even though they were caught red handed doing so. It really is like because they are a professional e-sports player they can just get away with it and they wouldn't possibly do such a thing, even though the footage is now viral on the internet. I can never understand what their mentality is when they do these things because if they get caught, they have so much to lose. In my opinion if you cheat or hack you deserve to lose your accounts and no matter who you are or how famous you are, that should never be an excuse to get away with it.
