What tv do you have? If your tv supports 1440p then yeah I would suppose you could.

One of those LG UHD models. Between 40-50”. I got it as a moving out gift from my parents so I don’t know specifically which

I have the regular backbone and it is exactly like this one but in a different color. Everything else is exactly the same.

Yeah, as far as controller like this and that Razr, this one is the best out there. Its almost like I am playing on a switch.

PS+ games for August are up:

Yakuza: Like a Dragon

Tony Hawk's™ Pro Skater™ 1 + 2

Little Nightmares

Yakuza: Like a Dragon

Absolutely loved it about 3/5 of the way thru. But the combat got repetitive, and worse the story went completely off the rails. Too many silly twists, and the ending felt rushed.

So the next game on my list to play is Thymesia, which is a souls-like releasing in a few days. But I could use some help understanding something. It says it’s going to be released on Steam, and I just don’t have much experience with Steam.

What does that mean to me, the average PS5 gamer? Can I buy the game outright on PS5 on its release date like any other game? Or is Steam some kind of 3rd party platform I will have to play the game on?

Steam is how they distribute games on PC. You'll buy it through PSN like any other game.

I was able to purchase a Horizon Bundle on Amazon earlier this week after just 4 or 5 days of requesting an invite. Looks like we're finally getting really close to widespread availability.

About damn time!

 

[Freak]

Curious about the price. Also, these are going to be impossible to get for a long time imo.

I'd guess probably in-line with the Xbox Elite controller.

I have no doubt

$179? I'll take the over.

 

[Freak]

This is huge. Say goodbye to trashing a controller because of stick drift.

Replaceable stick modules: Play longer with the ability to fully replace each individual stick module on the controller (replacement stick modules will be sold separately).

Wasn’t it originally $199?

Not that it’s a huge difference lol

I remember you went back and forth for a bit.

I did. But then I was like why not just have both?

I have both, but the problem is I can never decide which to play on. lol.
