Discussion Hell Is Us is outstanding
This game needs more posts about it. I had no clue it was this good. Im not gonna lie. When I heard this game was open world and it had no map, it intimidated me. How in the world can you play such a big game with no map. Well I was so wrong. If this game wasn't free on Playstation Plus I would have never tried it. I havnt seen any people posting about it and really havnt heard anything on the many Playstation places I follow. If I knew what I do now about it I would have definitely bought this game for $50. This game reminds me of old school games where there is no map and you literally have to listen and read everything. You cant skip or fast forward conversations. It makes you actually use your brain. You have to remember what certain people say. You have to investigate certain items to see what city you have to go to. You can talk to every NPC in the game. You can trade with everyone of them as well. Everything means something in this game. When im not playing this game im thinking about it trying to figure what to do next. Don't worry though, there is so much information and research you can do in this game that any type of player can play this. I also love the combat and leveling up of weapons. The creatures in this game are really dope. Also dont let me get started on the graphics. This game is so beautiful. There is also a lot of puzzles that I love and I dont think they overwhelm you. I would recommend playing this game at night with headphones. The music, dark dungeons, crazy creatures, and the sounds were intense at times. If you havnt tried this game please give it a try. Its free on Playstation plus. It doesn't have hard combat like the souls games so like I said everyone can play it. Its easy to get use to. I have never wrote so much about a game before. I just want people to know about great games. Especially when they are free. When you are not playing this game you will be thinking of it. Thanks for listening and let me know what you think. Good or bad I take all criticism with positive thinking. I love you gamers. HAVE FUN AND GO SAVE THE WORLD!!!!!

Discussion Kingdom Come: Deliverance studio co-founder hopes Grand Theft Auto 6 will 'blaze a trail' to higher game prices
Warhorse Studios co-founder Martin Klima is just putting it out there: He isn't a fan of the Grand Theft Auto series, and has no interest in playing GTA 6 when it debuts on consoles on November 19. Nonetheless, he's hoping that it's at least as big a hit as everyone expects it to be, for one particular reason: so other studios (like his) can take advantage of the opportunity to increase their prices, a move he believes is necessary for the survival of the industry.
Sure, but only if every game also comes with the scale, scope and production of a GTA VI.

Discussion [LEAK] The latest PS5 Slim model reportedly changes some components, including a replaceable CMOS battery and revised cooling
A teardown of Sony’s unannounced PS5 Slim revision, featuring the new EDM-051 motherboard, has revealed several changes to the console’s internal hardware.
According to console technician and modder Modyfikator89:
• The CR2032 CMOS battery is now easily removable and replaceable
• The motherboard has been redesigned with a different internal layout.
• Sony has introduced a newer, lower-cost HDMI retimer implementation.
• The cooling system has been revised again, with a liquid-metal design that more closely resembles the approach used in the PS5 Pro.
• The heatsink construction and materials have also changed compared with previous Slim revisions.
The changes could be related to manufacturing costs, component optimisation, thermal efficiency, or improving the console’s longevity. However, there is currently no indication that the revision provides a meaningful difference in gaming performance compared with existing PS5 Slim models.
