PS5

Its about pro's and cons.

PS5: Can't change my profile, but
I can have multiple profiles on a single console eg
I have SA, US accounts on my PS5
My SA account can play games bought and installed from the US account.

The sad part is I lost access to my NZ PS account and can only get it back via Sony NZ, which requires my NZ phone and address.

Xbox: Can change profile, but
Some games that I bought while I had a US Profile can not be installed or even played now that it's an SA Profile. Oddly enough, all my NZ-bought games still work now that I have an SA Profile.

Yeah basically I need a new UK account setup. So I'll probably do that this weekend. Guess it's a good excuse to reply some games I did not finish.
 
Ive never been a gamer myself but my 8 year old son is huge into gaming.

Found this in his play room, no idea why he wrote on napkins.

Was reading this tech news and I was imagining Ted Faro and the Faro swarm the whole time :ROFL:

"Hardwiring a kill switch into a chip is something entirely different: a permanent flaw beyond user control, and an open invitation for disaster," Nvidia's Reber wrote.

"It's an overreaction that would irreparably harm America's economic and national security interests."

 
I caved because I am too impatient to wait a year or two for DS2 to come to PC or Xbox.

Bought a second hand phat console with the disk drive.

It was very much an impulse buy and it certainly wouldn't have happened if DS2 didn't exist.

I don't think I'll use it for much else other than the new ghost and whatever exclusives come later if I really want them.

Everything else I wanted to jam I jammed on PC and my old PS4 Pro.

You mean you migrated the US profile to SA? Not that it's a secondary US account? Because that does make sense if those games aren't available on the SA or wherever market store.

Can't recall that I've had this problem.

The other benefit of Xbox is that in most cases you can buy games with US/UK or other countries codes and use them on the SA account as long as they are available there, because there isn't really any regional lockout.
 
Carx street is free if you have PS Plus. See online it's a pricing error so get it while it's free.

 
Always wanted to play Gears of War but never could justify dishing out for another console, now I can actually play it.

Still weird seeing an XBox label on the PS5 man! :p
