i was supposed to be getting the ps5 for christmas, out of stock everywhere, except those greedy cunts on ebay, some asking a grand, now i can wait not a problem, but i do feel for smaller kids who dream of the ps5 for christmas

There are huge container delays coming from the far east due to a global shortage. Add port congestion in the UK adding 2 weeks to deliveries.

I'm the same, so may be a mistake that I pre ordered. Remember playing condemned and having intense occular pain. Yet things like everyone's gone to the rapture, edith finch, the slower paced games I can do in first person.

The only action type first person game I've completed is Dead Island.

Oh yeah Edith Finch that's another one I've done, decent that.

Yeah, definitely some games I have to stop after a while. HL2 most annoyingly. Then there are slow ones (mostly in unity) that are the worst. Other fast things have no issue. Strange one.

It’s been a mess this year and it’s not just the PS5. No PS5s, no Xbox’s and no GPUs for PCs.

Just a little tip for anyone who has downloaded Cyberpunk 2077 on Xbox you can play it today. At 12 this afternoon go into settings and change your time to Auckland New Zealand. Because console release is at midnight in all regions and New Zealand are 12 hours ahead you'll be able to play the game.

Not sure if you can do that on PlayStation

Yeah, you should probably be careful playing Cyberpunk if you've had issues with first-person games before.
Seems as if the braindance sections in particular mimic the red and white light patterns doctors use specifically to induce epileptic seizures in a clinical environment.

Cyberpunk 2077 adds a new "risk of seizure" warning message that appears at the start of the game

That's being patched today. That mission was mandatory but now it's not and the game now comes with a epilepsy warning

Expected that would be the case. However, just by its very nature the game is still going to be a bit of an ocular overload and won't be suited for everyone.
From what I've read, even with some of the negative stuff I think this a game I'm going to love. Can't wait to get started.

My mate reviewed CP77 and loved it, but he said its absolutely hilariously buggy. Said most enemies leave floating guns, there are placeholder mannequin type things where there should be characters etc. Very, very rough around the edges, even with the patch. No PS5 optimisation either yet. Think i'm gonna wait a a few weeks!

2077 sounds pretty average, idk what is so good about it. Sounds like a bit of a weird version of fallout, with weird sex scenes and keanu reeves
