Ive played the Uncharted series in the past on PS4, wouldn't mind another play through though - never heard anything bad about Ghost of Tsushima either - may make that my next game!
You're in for a huge game with lots of side quests and collectibles if you do that. ;)

At the moment I still do not have a PS5 and I think I might just wait for PS5 Slim. The PS5 is still near impossible to get here. This is ok for me as all the games I want coming soon are all PS4 only (as in with PS5 update patches but no separate physical PS5 release).

I just wish there was more PS5 exclusives that are really worth getting. Sure some of them are nice but not $750 (in my country) nice.
Is ps Slim officially on the horizon.
I've passed series x today, excellent console, my time and patience is dwindling.
Planning on reading over ps5 digital user reviews.

thanks
 
Is there a great deal of advantage over ps5 via ps5 digital.
I prefer idea of digital only, though does this lock me into full costed games via Sony.

thanks
Aside from that (physical games) and playing physical media, no there is no difference between the two.

You can sometimes get much heavier discounts on physical games. You can also sell back physical games. And if/when the online store gets closed years later you still have the game. Some of these things are really important to some people but not at all important to others. I have a PS5 that reads discs.

I also have the disc version, and I have yet to ever download a digital game. I prefer to have the physical disc. Yes its a bit of hassle having to swap discs etc (although most of the time when a disc goes in, it stays in until I've completed the game anyways) but I also tend to sell games that I'm bored of and will never play again, or just didn't like!
I also tend to find them cheaper online in comparison to the digital download!

How quick is it to move games between external and internal storage? The PS5 doesn’t allow PS5 games to be ran from external storage like the Xbox does.
 
I installed a 2TB WD Black SN850 (Heatsink version) into my PS5 and store all games etc on that. No difference in performance whatsoever.

This is an important part.
With a disc version, you can buy either the digital version, or the physical version.
And even buy used games too. Which you cant with a digital only.
 
having Non Buyers remorse.

nothing in stock on this island or indeed Portugal. Get an email from Worten saying from 3pm available on line (on wednesday)

click on it and there's only one pack and its €789! i think im not spending that.

it was ps5+horizon Forbidden West, GT 7, Spiderman Morales and a controller, and a €30 voucher.

thursday, im softening, they still have in stock. add it to my basket. then im thinking im paying €389 more than i want to pay as i only really want the digital one at €400.

This morning i wake up early. bored. softening again. justifying that it makes sense to have the disc one, so thats €500, an extra controller is useful, and ill spend the voucher, so we are already on €620. GT and Horison FW id buy at some stage maybe when on sale, so say €70. never got into spiderman so doubt morales will grab me but still it means im only spending €100 more than i want to.

f%%% it. goes to buy, sold out again. of course. idiot.

It's not instantaneous but at the same time not a big deal to me. I can't remember exactly but I would guess maybe less than 10 minutes for 80 GB?
 
I'm going to seek digital ps5 only as I keep limited storage space.

thanks

If you go digital only, always keep an eye on CD Keys as they can offer digital games, including new ones, for cheaper then the Sony store, just need to make sure you buy the U.K. version of the games. Also back when I had a PS I knew it paid off if you wanted a game, to wait for one of Sonys big sales as you could get some nice reductions on its digital store then.
 
Is CD Keys legit.

thanks

Yes they seem to be, they’ve been going for a while and I’ve bought a few things from them. Always worked fine. I got a years worth of Game Pass vouchers recently as they were cheaper on the site, every one worked perfectly fine when I used them on my Xbox.

downloading Horizon West.
Finding one or two logins are very browser based, unless I missed these via ps app, though I haven't downloaded authenticator as yet.
e.g. Adding paypal account and Disney plus didn't quite make it via iphone until I've used laptop
Going to youtube stand as didn't find any immediate way of using it.

---edited---
found great youtube video to use stand correctly,.

I used them a couple times to buy a key for my yearly Playstation Plus membership and had no issues. Only thing is it is a foreign (non US) transaction on your credit card.

i use them to buy topup cards for Playstation Store, i have a UK account and now only Portuguese bank cards so its the easiest way. and tbh its also often cheaper as a £50 card is often not much more than €50.
