To be fair I quite enjoyed the Fenyx demo

Shadow of the Tomb Raider got a new patch which it will support 4K resolution with 60fps now.

Does it have Ray Tracing like on PC? Cause it looks great on PC with RT.

I am not sure but it seems like it doesn't have ray tracing.

Looking at the reported patch details, I don't think that the Shadow of the Tomb Raider update includes ray tracing - it's focused on 4K/60.

Sniper Elite 4 has also gained a (free) 4K/60 update:

How do you know when games are backwards compatible? Is there like a logo/emblem next to them, or you can filter on a search, or what?

Check out backwards-compatible.com - and the site is made by a GRcadian (but I've forgotten who!).

Unless you're trying to play some obscure title that nobody ever played, I'm pretty sure anything should work.

It’ll have a prohibition symbol in the top left of the tile in your library if it doesn’t work. I have about 15 or so that don’t play, but some of those are old demos and betas, or even in some rare cases, where there’s a free PS5 upgrade

I wonder if the PS5 version of the back buttons will make an appearance this year?
It's not exactly a tough job to make it fit the pad.
Maybe it just sold absolutely terribly and they've quietly killed it?

strawberry float! I have been out of the loop for a while and now that I have money I find that these bastard console are still hard to buy! :lol:
I may just wait until they release a pro version!

Had a look for the new Xbox Series X and it's the same story!

Bizarre!

Haven’t set mine up yet, gonna figure out how to move saves onto the cloud. I’ve also forgot my PSN password.

Sorry, I mean PS5.

Restoring licenses may help if you're unable to access your digital purchases like games, add-ons, in-game consumables, and virtual currency.

Edit: Buffalo - you can set it to 5GHz on PS5 like you did with PS4.

Some of you may know that I'm hoping - at some point in the future! - to get a PS5 console. Well, a couple of months back, I ended up with a PS5 game in "readiness".

Anyhow, I visited my local supermarket today and spotted something on sale...

So now I have two games... but no console :slol: .
