Playstation & Sony News/Discussion

My PSPlus subscription final lapses next month and I won't be resubbing. Probably the biggest waste of money when it comes to stuff I've bought for my PS4. The only game I ever played was Rocket League and the only time I really used the online was for Destiny 2, so yeah a bit of a waste of money for me.

Agreed. I'm pretty much in the same boat. Mine expired just before Christmas and I have no intention of re-upping.

i just dont use it enough for it to be of value.

The main bits from the State of Play. Urgh that name btw













Everything that has its own thread already I've chucked the details in there.

The Surge and Conan Exiles are the PSPlus games for April.

Boy the list feels really thin without PS3 and Vita games now.

[Mantis]

My sub expired for the first time in about four years last week and I don't think I'll be renewing it until I really see some solid titles, they change the offering or I feel like blasting through my backlog of PS Plus games which are now locked out. Just having it tick over every month isn't worth it anymore.

The “next-gen console,“ as he refers to it repeatedly, won’t be landing in stores anytime in 2019

The CPU is based on the third generation of AMD’s Ryzen line and contains eight cores of the company’s new 7nm Zen 2 microarchitecture. The GPU, a custom variant of Radeon’s Navi family, will support ray tracing

The AMD chip also includes a custom unit for 3D audio

At the moment, Sony won’t cop to exact details about the SSD—who makes it, whether it utilizes the new PCIe 4.0 standard—but Cerny claims that it has a raw bandwidth higher than any SSD available for PCs.

Some of the stuff they talk about sounds to me like it could make the next Sony console a bit more expensive than the PS4 was.

[Medicine Man]

I'm already looking for a 2nd job so I can afford it.

[DjchunKfunK]

Looks like you may well need that second job MM.
