Gamoc, to games in PlayStation Portal review: impressive hardware but is Remote Play itself good enough?

Did you think I was going to?

I’d say the printer/scanner/fax combo is more convenient the second you either need to scan something or find yourself in the 1980s and need to send a fax.

It’s kinda absurd to think Sony can’t put more than one feature into this £200 device without over complicating it. There’s no reason it couldn’t stream from PS Now, all the hardware it needs is already there. It’s just the bare minimum and much of the potential was squandered.

No I’m disappointed they didn’t make a worthwhile device. I would’ve loved this if it had some worthwhile additions, but it’s an overpriced screen with a controller attached, useless without your PS5 connected to it wirelessly.

Even just streaming from PS+/Now would’ve done it for me, but “here’s a way to play games you already own that are installed on the console you already own, but it costs £200 and you could do the same thing with many of the devices you already own, some of which may have an ethernet connection, so they’re better at it” just feels like a waste.

Hopefully it’ll get hacked and they’ll get gamepass streaming on it or something.

Yeah, and convenience used to be putting multiple different functions in one device. Now apparently it’s more convenient to pay £200 for a device that can literally only do one thing instead of using the many other devices you already own to conveniently do the same thing.

Get some glue and make a holder or something. Bigger screen? Use a tablet, laptop, or PC that you’ve probably already got. £200 for a device that can’t do anything on its own? Stop bending over for them.

You can plug your dual sense into both a phone and a steam deck without it costing you any more money.

Gamoc, (edited ) to games in PlayStation Portal review: impressive hardware but is Remote Play itself good enough?

It’s an oddity because there’s already multiple devices in most homes that can remote play, paying for a device that can ONLY remote play is about the stupidest waste of money I can think of when I have two phones, a PC, a laptop and a tablet that can all do the same thing. Hell if you plug in an ethernet cable the PC and laptop well do it better.

It could have been a cool device if you could use it to stream from PS+/Now, but you can’t. It could be cool if it had like a vita in it or something so you could play vita games, but it didn’t. It’s an idea with potential, but they shoved all that potential in a bin and instead released something that’s completely useless unless it’s connected to your PS5. What a waste.

Just subscribed to that. I’ve enjoyed Dungeons and Daddies, the title of which requires an explanation to be included: it’s about four dad’s finding their sons after they’re sucked into the forgotten realms through a portal. Sword AF is pretty good too. On YouTube.

The things you mentioned make Adventure is Nigh the best DND campaign play thing I’ve found so far, it’s excellent.

And whilst they keep increasing ps+ prices as well.

I’m not seeing any hostility really, just disagreeing with you and explanations.

Gamoc, to games in Disney CEO Deputies are pushing for Iger to transform Disney into a Gaming Giant (Perhaps via EA Acquisition). Currently non-committal. Rumor

You absolutely are, Disney made $28billion last year, a 27% increase over the previous year, and you called it a money pit. Idiot.

And I know you won’t understand this, but disagreeing with someone doesn’t mean your feelings are hurt. In this case it just means that you were wrong and likely racist/sexist/homophobic, since you cried about them being “woke.” It’s a shame your feelings are so hurt by inclusiveness though.

Better idea, you should start with learning something before trying to present your drool-coated opinions to others.

Gamoc, to games in Assassin's Creed Mirage is Now One of the Lowest-Rated Games in the Series

I didn’t know it had multiple ending to be honest, because I didn’t finish it. I did the basim bit towards the end and just uninstalled in disgust when I realised it was still going.
