Madden and College Football 25 are on sale for $14 each until 3/27. Star Wars Jedi: Survivor for $17.49 and FC 25 for $21, too. Seems like some EA sale for a few games that hasn't gone live yet.

I can not recommend that site enough.

I bought both Dragon Age and College at launch...now could have gotten them for $14 total...this is what I get for ignoring the CAG gods

I bought Dragon Age a few weeks back for $25 and I felt like I was doing well. Then they announced the March games and immediately felt like I still spent too much. This is why I put off buying games for as long as I can, occasionally I forget though.

I somewhat like the look. I do not like white joysticks. No matter how clean you are, your hand oils will stain the joysticks over time.

Should come with a month of Max included, otherwise why does this exist? Man Sony is desperate these days.

Dragon Age was clearly going to bomb when they first revealed it with those Fortnite style graphics.

And yet, I look at Avowed having done the exact same thing TBH. I feel that both had drastically different early development and suddenly popped back up completely different. Not sure about Dragon Age but for Avowed they wanted a vibrant palette in a change of heart. Problem is, they didn't notify the writers because the game is fairly gritty and gives you whiplash between pretty colors and harsh reality.

I think if Veilguard were on Game Pass, it may have fared better but who's to say. I moved on from Avowed before finishing because MHWilds is too good.

I was going to buy it when gamestop had it for sale but I'm like it's EA and at some point game will be FREE to play.

Yeah but we all know that the College football game was a unique situation having been without the game for so long and needing to experience it on launch along with everyone else. It is actually a better pure football game than Madden in terms of gameplay imo.

I would agree! However, I told my group of friends we are going to wait on 26 until the price plummets😝
 
Random question for you guys- how's the process for transferring data from one PS5 to another? I have an older PS5 (still the very original model, I think? the Forbidden West box) and have had the 30th Slim sitting for a while and I think I need to get around to getting that set up.

I've got a ton of games on the built in drive and also have a 2TB drive- if I just take the 2TB drive and put it in the new PS5, will that just work? And for the games on my drive already, I don't care if I have to re-download them but is there a way to just tell the new PS5 what games to download?

Yes if you take out the added 2tb drive and put it into your new slim it will work without any issues. What I did was move everything on the internal to the 2tb drive I added and swapped that to my pro and didn't have to redownload anything

Easiest question and I can consider myself an expert on this as I’ve done it several times now. From ps5 launch to slim to Pro.

I had a 2TB nvme installed in the launch. Put a usb stick in exfat into the ps5. Go to backup. If all instal data is on the nvme, the usb stick should only be about 6GB of data or so.

Next remove nvme from old ps5 and put in new ps5. Boot up and get to home screen. Go to system settings and restore from usb. Bam! It’s like you never changed consoles. Whole process takes maybe 10 minutes.
 
Alright cool. The last time I did any type of transfer was upgrading my FatStation 3's 80GB HDD to a 500GB HDD and it crashed halfway and I ended up losing a bunch of saves (didn't have PS+ Cloud saves at the time, if Cloud saves even existed at the time) and had to re-download a few games (which wasn't bad but the installation process on HDD was beyond slow).

Even if cloud saves were around or not there was a limit iirc.
 
Anyone else getting a queue when trying to visit the ps5 pro 30th anniversary bundle page?

You complain about your wallet but at least, most of these games will end up on sale...

I'm complaining about the lack of time to play all these games.

That too. Between working 50-60 hours a week and having a girl who always likes to go out I don't get to game much these days. Right now I'm slowly working my way through MH Wilds and KCD2.

Thank you. I didn't see your post, just someone elses third party link instead of the proper source. Only saw the huge youtube preview, the PSblog link was tiny.

Everytime I see similar posts I am more and more thankful my wife plays. And not just Animal Crossing, but Borderlands, Diablo, Tomb Riader...etc 2 jobs here, but one is a teacher so at least I get summers to catch up...relatively

Anyone else siffer from Game Hangover? Where you play a great game and then the next you try in your backlog are just Meh?..suffering from that currently (tried Awakwning Unknown 9, Ys Nordics, and Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 so far.....)

Happens all the time especially if you're getting game bundles and such. Going through so many demos lets me retire things easier. I say it's never a shame since time is limited. If a game isn't too my liking it goes. Now if the games aren't hitting right now, but you will want to play them, just move on still and try it later. If it's similar than it's probably time to retire it. That feeling comes often for me especially after a good visual novel, because so many of them are decent, but not amazing. I think it's like that with everything, and now and then you get the real highs which is nice.

At one point i had GoW Ragnarock, then Horizon Forbidden West then Hogwarts Legacy...that it pulled me away from Warzone (which in hindisght has been very nice) Now i went SW Outlaws, Metaphor Refantazio, and just completed Veilguard....now I am like "meh" and maybe I need to stop buying soo many games..oooo look a sale🤑
 
I never understood the "ignore member" stuff. If I don't care about what someone posts it is less effort for me to just stop reading and skip to the next post. It's not like people are posting porn or Nazi stuff since that gets moderated out. Why do people let the opinions of supposed idiots affect them?

So far I've only been able to get her into Animal Crossing and Just Dance lol. She didn't like Mario Kart because of the power sliding. I'm thinking about trying to get her to play Split Fiction or Until Dawn with me.

It's not less effort though. Literally just two clicks of a button, and you never have to spare a thought about the person ever again.

Wrong thread?

Anywho had akibas beat crash during a double boss battle. It sucks that this kinda thing is still happening in the age of patches and updates. I don't feel like they even acknowledge the report feature. Atlus certainly didn't for citizens of earth.

Split fiction is the enxt on on our list. We both enjoyed It Takes Two..wasn't a very demanding game. Still fun though
