Just used this bypass 2 days ago. I’d recommend people download the current W11 installer so that the work around always works as long as you keep the device away from Internet until the OS is installed

Also, much easier to get a ps5 now, most stores just have them in stock now, seen some used ones for sale too

You’re right in that exclusives are becoming less and less but I still think it’s worth getting a PS5.

If you have the wallet for it I think the perfect setup is owning a switch for party games and Nintendo exclusives, a PS5 for Sony exclusives/general couch gaming and as your media machine, and a PC for all the rest.

Ps5 definitely has some great exclusives that imo make the system worth it, not to mention the graphical upgrades and how quick it is compared to a ps4.
-Ghost of Tsushima is a beautiful game, with a great story and gameplay, performs so much better on PS5 -Spiderman 2 -God of war Ragnarok -Horizon zero dawn -Gran Turismo

I use my PS5 for most of my games over my gaming PC, just more comfortable for me. Also I still like that you can get lucky if you go to a GameStop and find used physical copies of expansive games at a discount.

I have also always recommended owning an Xbox/PlayStation as a media device as well. Sound and image quality usually surpass your smaller basic steaming devices or built in smart TVs. Compared to my ps5, my ps4 crawls through the menus and loading screens. One of those things that you won’t notice until you upgrade.

Having said all that, I wouldn’t get the “pro” model, unless you have the cash and want to game in like 8k or some bs

Top man u scorer is a defensive player what even

Link is dead :(

It’s so big and bulky, how am I supposed to carry that thing anywhere, even traveling. The Switch fits in my pocket

Ok just tested and there is no option. Do you know if this was an option on older pixel models?

Yeah idk what he’s talking about, and the three button complaint is an odd and outdated one since most come with gestures out of the box and you can opt to use the default 3 button layout which is back button, home, and menu.

Adding that to my reasons to move list.

Had the Razr 5g, got it new for $600 through a T-Mobile offer. Loved the OS, very similar to pixels. Loved how small it was in my pocket. It became super easy to use daily but… On month 9 a line appeared on my display, that night my phones battery died and upon reboot whole inside screen was messed up. The phone other wise looks pristine, and I have a case that protects it. I never dropped it either. Their one year warranty conveniently does not cover the screen and repair was $950 through Motorola. After arguing the did issue a discount and the phone would cost $750 to repair…when you could get a brand new one on their site for $600 at the time. Ridiculous.

Never buying Motorola again. Might try the Samsung flip in a few years once the tech is solid and affordable.

Yeah I read it, I just don’t find the point of an article about a game this old

Imagine thinking that Tolkien didn’t write Lord of the Rings to make a fighting PS2 game in 2002 and writing an article 20+ years after it’s release thinking it’s a clever thought. That game is master piece!

I’ll write a piece about how the 2004 PS2 game: The Polar Express misses the point of Christmas and collect my pay check.

I can’t comprehend how Nintendo managed to make Tears of the Kingdom on a console like the switch. And I’ll check out Black, thnx for the suggestion

Exclusives can be beneficial. By exclusives, I don’t mean Sony/Microsoft pay the developer for exclusivity, that sucks. What I’m referring to is a developer picking a platform and developing a game using that platforms full potential. Games like Zelda, Crash Bandicoot, God Of War, Last Of Us all took full potential of their consoles architecture and brought pretty good games.

I agree…but I gotta say I did love the last few chapters of Halo 3, especially the last bit where you drive away while everything explodes.

Yup. As an adult with less time to play, you really notice how much AAA games are just copy and paste with a new area on a map or same mission, but different npc.

I just picked up the 2022 remaster of Pacman World from 1999. The game design in that game is so nice. Each level has new enemies and new platform mechanics. I feel like only indie games bring innovation like that today while AAA is just rinse and repeat. (For the most part anyway…God Of War and Zelda are good examples of companies doing it right)

Dude amen, I hate the ideology of “I just want to have fun who cares if we win” …your teammates do. Thank goodness for skill based matchmaking and ranked although they tend to slow down the experience at times.

Games should have “carefree” lobbies for people who want to “just relax and play”

Dear rising I would love a reboot of the first one with new mechanics but the same overall crazy feel

Im with you man, i hate that phones all went for large blank rectangle. Google Pixels and folding phone might be the only alternative. I had the pixel 4a for that reason. Upgraded to 6a and sadly they made them bigger.

Sony used to have their compact line which was so great. Wish they still had that line.

Took a leap with the Motorola RAZR 5g in 2021. Liked the features and the UI was decent, very similar to a Google pixel with a few extras.

Bluetooth sucked and had issues with the phone being picky with its USB C cable.

Worst part…with only 9 months with the phone the foldable screen started to fail, shortly completely unusable.

The screen is conveniently not covered in the one year warranty.

Phone cost me $600 brand new from T-Mobile. Repairs with Motorola would be $900!

Contacted them through Twitter and ultimately they tried to give me a %15 discount lol

Never again with them
