    What game next? Stellar Blade or Rebirth?

    Since there's probably an obvious answer from the title alone, let me add some context.

    I'm a teacher for a living who's about to be done for the summer within the next week. A student who knows I game got me a PS Store card as a parting gift, and I'm looking into a game to occupy my late night solo sessions after finishing online play with my regular crew each night. Last summer it was Forspoken. It was my first PS5 game after getting the console as a Father's Day/birthday gift, and I enjoyed the hell out of it. I've also been going through Remake these past few months in preparation of Rebirth (whenever I get it) and recently just finished my hard mode run. However, what's keeping me from pulling the trigger on it versus Stellar Blade are 1. Rebirth has a lot more game to it than Remake from what I've heard and I don't want to burn myself out before completing it, especially after just finishing Remake and 2. Stellar Blade features some parallels with Forspoken that could give me the same kind of summer enjoyment (powerful female protagonist in an explorable unknown world with decent sized scope and fun combat). I'm also back and forth on which one is the more immersive PS5 game, that takes better advantage of haptics, triggers, and controller speaker.

    Long winded I know, but let me know your two cents!

    I have high hopes for the future for Cd project to read when it comes to cyberpunk 2

    So I did some research and there is a lot of cut content in Cyberpunk. However, in Pacifica, there was an entire section of the map that was supposed to be part of Pacifica that you could explore. The map is already big, but there was a lot more. Not to mention that you were supposed to have the game, which you do not unless you somehow mod your way through it.

    I just hope CD Projekt Red can give us more of Night City or something similar in the sequel, like maybe mini games. For example, like what you can do in the casino in Phantom Liberty. That's the only time you actually had a mini game that didn't involve cars or anything like that. It just had casual card games or coins. I have high hopes for the sequel and maybe we will have a five-year plan like what Rockstar has when it comes to their multiplayer online element. Just saying, it would have been cool to see what Cyberpunk would look like if it had a multiplayer element to the game.

    Wifi bugging out

    So it started a couple days ago, my wifi connection would be fine and then I’d open a media app and then suddenly it would drop to under 1mbps and stay like that for godknows how long. Now today it’s happened without the media app and it just randomly dropped after maybe 20 mins of play, was at 50mbps then suddenly dropped down to 500kbps. I have no clue what this issue is or how to fix it and my only answer I can come up with is damage from a house fire it went through in January, but I’m not sure about that as it’s been working perfectly fine miraculously until now. If anyone knows what’s going on I’d really appreciate it thanks

    Is PSN chat support offline ?

    I have been trying to access the chat support for help with my account. I have been trying for a couple weeks at all hours of the day and every time the is a “no agent available. Or could they just be that busy. Is anyone having issues accessing help via chat support? Thanks for reading.

    Do I need to use the original USB cable to reinstall software on my ps4?

    I’m confused because after calling the support number I was told all I needed to do was download the software and reinstall it. So I did that today and it wouldn’t work. It didn’t recognize the file I believe. I could have sworn that I had downloaded the correct file and put everything in the right folders.

    So then I called support again and they told me I needed to have the original usb cable that came with my system. But when I tried to reinstall the error message didn’t mention that. I’m suppose to be getting a new original cable in the mail.

    Is that the correct information? I’m just confused. Thanks for any help.

    Remote Play Setup

    I am living on a camper for the summer. I brought my ps5 with me but I don’t have a monitor. I was planning on using my laptop and remote playing on it. Is it possible to connect my ps5 to the internet through the app, (my phone and ps5 are connected). Or am I going to have to just blindly turn it on and try to connect it to the internet?

    Am I able to make my save of a PS4 edition of a game to a PS5 edition of the same game?

    I finally got a PS5 not too long ago and I was wanting to play elden ring but as far as I'm aware I'm gonna have to restart cause my main save was on the PS4 version of the game. So I was wondering if I'm able to put that save onto the PS5 version of elden ring? or am I either going to have to restart or redownload the PS4 version

    Recs for GTA-like games?

    I've played GTA 1-5 and everything in-between, RDR1 and 2, Saints Row 1-4, Just Cause 1 and 2, True Crime: Streets of LA and NY, Watch Dogs, The Getaway and Black Monday, Driver 1 and 2, Scarface, Sleeping Dogs..

    The only other games that spring to mind right now are L.A Noire (not really the same thing), The Godfather, and maybe the Mafia games? I feel like I've absolutely exhausted this genre since the PS1.

    Cyberpunk is on the list, especially since it's gotten so many patches and updates now.

    If you've got any recs, let me know.

    Cheers

    Serious question - which to play next (Tsushima, RD2, Witcher)

    Hey y'all. So I'm a grown ass adult with limited playtime so I don't want to waste it. I have these three games in my library and I've never played any of them. I'll eventually get to all three but which order would you prioritize them? Lately I've been really enjoying great stories (only did TLOU 1&2 last year). Which game should I play first?

    I made a mistake

    I made a post that I deleted which I said the portal had to be connected to the same wifi as your PS5. I’m just now learning that it doesn’t?? I’m confused why don’t people like the Portal?

    Your opinions about Saint's Row Reboot?

    Hello everyone! As the title says, i am very curious, what is your opinion about SR Reboot. I gave it a second chance the past week and it changed my opinion from 0 to really promising. I know it will not get any new updates, dlc, etc. But in the state that the game is right now, is very enjoyable. Yes it may not be as good as the earlier titles, but with all the dlc and things in it i can give it an 8 imo. What are your opinions about the game?
