If elder scrolls 6 ever comes out I’ll be tempted just for that reason alone.

This. Bethesda games being Xbox and PC exclusive is really making me think about an Xbox.

I've got a PS5 and Gamepass on my PC, obv not exactly the same thing. I've found it useful for some of the xbox exclusives, but only if you have enough free time to play everything.

I finished A Plague Tale: Requiem last night.

What a fucking game. It's both beautiful in terms of graphics. Packs emotional punches right through the game. The voice acting is genuinely as good as it gets on a video game.

Do you reckon you need to do the first game first?

I second this. Never played the first.

The only question you need to ask is, are the PS5 exclusives attractive enough for you to spend the extra £479.

PS5 exclusives: Every game released and confirmed so far

These are the games you can only play on PS5

A little bit light on the ground so far, some fantastic IPs released already or upcoming but Gran Turismo has now been surpassed by Forza on Xbox and quite a few remade games.

Microsoft has probably won the exclusives war for quantity already, by the time the Activision deal goes through PlayStation will be locked out of one of the biggest selling franchises.

Some of the MW2 servers as super laggy.

What's everybody's favourite game mode for online?

Do you reckon you need to do the first game first?

Definitely. But the first is excellent too. Both are on Game pass if you have a Series X/S

Was getting some low benchmarks on my PC and some dropped frames. Found a few videos on YouTube that showed how to decrease the background apps running and get more out of the RAM. Ran it again and now its running above expectations:

UserBenchmarks: Game 211%, Desk 106%, Work 197%
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600X - 101.8%
GPU: Nvidia RTX 3080 - 212%
