Is there an easy way to check if your need a firmware update for the pulse headset? Or does the PS5 tell you when one needs to be done?

Also, the sound in apex is one of my biggest complaints in that game. Its horrible when it comes to hearing footsteps and figuring out where exactly they are.

Just plug it in and it'll update if it needs to.

I love my ps5

Only issues is that my kids want their time on it as well. So know I'm looking to buy a used ps4 pro so they'll knock it the fuck off lol
Kids or wife always be playing shit hogging the Ps5! Lately, it's been, do I want to play this game alone or with the wife watching? She enjoys watching me play games, and if I want to play a game with her I have to play it on console, versus tucked away in my office area with my gaming PC.

Also, all you cucks with the small heads that actually fit into the Pulse wireless headset can get fukt. Small-head bitches!

I would not be surprised if several open world games get delayed because Elden Ring raised the bar.

Been playing some Bloodborne in anticipation of Elden Ring. I just can’t get into it. I think a large part of it is that I suck. I have a hard time enjoying myself when I just die over and over. I make a little more progress each time, and I’m confident I could eventually make it through the game. But I don’t have the time or patience to do the same thing over and over.

Elden Ring worth trying for me? Or is it going to be more of the same?

elden ring is easier than bloodborne, you can simply go do something else for a while and usually beat a fight you had trouble with a lot easier once you overlevel it a little. You could kinda do the same in bloodborne but you had to basically waste time grinding for hours while in ER you just go do other fun scary (easy) shit. There are also LOTS of broken builds that can make specific fights super easy.

end of the day though at some point you will have to get good at the reactions, timing, and combat. i haven't hit that point yet 35 hours in, always found a way to make stuff easier if i feel overwhelmed.


PS5 state of play today at 2pm PT / 5pm ET, talk about mostly japanese games

Already know that isn't happening they said chip shortage will make it even harder this year, instead they put in a larger ps4 order from their partners

Honestly? Probably not worth it. It takes a certain amount of patience to play games like this. Souls games teach you not to "spam" attack buttons. It has a very methodical playstyle. ER is more forgiving than BB, but you will still have frustrations with encounters, in fact the majority of bosses will make you want to throw your controller until you learn how to play this type of game. The best way to make the game "easy" is to overlevel for it, but again that takes time and requires patience. I consider myself a Souls expert and I still die ALL THE TIME, I can't imagine someone new to the genre dying less than I do, so it just depends on how frustrating that is to you; dying is just part of the experience, but if you don't like that, then none of these games, including Elden Ring, is gonna be enjoyable to you.

I think ER would be easier to start gaining the patience And the world itself is absolutely beautiful, but the initial start to the play through is always a little more frustrating until you get used to your build's playstyle.

I've definitely died hundreds of times but I also tend to progress fairly quickly for the most part. A few of my friends bought this and I'm hoping it convinces them to give the souls games another shot, All of them including bloodborne are great games But not necessarily for everyone.
