Console gaming is a very cheap hobby and for the amount of time you spend with games in general it seems mad not to spend a couple of hundred quid for nicer stuff.

It's cheap compared to helicopter flying or something but I think "very cheap" is stretching it.


For 'hours of entertainment per £' I'm not convinced anything can touch it.


Books?


Ass Creed Origins is on course to entertain me for 60 hours. It cost £17.


That’s more expensive than a book, and you don’t need to spend hundreds of pounds to read one either.

I’m being facetious rather than massively serious, of course. Books are insanely good value for money though.


You've spent more than 60 hours reading many books? Or, indeed, any?


Absolutely! Plus, to be a fair comparison, you’d need to buy £17 worth of books. Plus, to be even fairer you would need to also factor in the additional proportionate costs of the hardware. And that’s not even accounting for libraries, electricity, etc.

I am considerably more likely to re-read a book than I am to play a game. There's a number of books I've read half a dozen times.

I think it's a bit meaningless to even try compare things on a £/hr basis. Good art, entertainment, hobbies whatever are things that leave a lasting impression and affect you in some ways afterwards. I spent £200 to go paragliding down a mountain and it lasted for 15 minutes, that doesn't mean it was horrible value because it was an amazing experience that made a lasting impression. On the other hand I sometimes watch a film and it so utterly fails to make any impression that a couple of months later I couldn't actually say with any certainty whether I even saw it.

Also :this: but being sensible about things never did me any good (subs please check).

Sony have weirdly chosen now to release a version of the Remote Play app for iOS:

https://www.engadget.com/2019/03/07/son ... -play-ios/

I really wish they'd just suck it up and release it for Android across the board as well.

I noticed this earlier, but can’t find it in the App Store.

-edit- I found it by finding another official PS app and then looking at other apps made by PlayStation Mobile.

This is usually stale caches in the search system. Play does the same thing. Either find a direct link to the app on Twitter/a news post/etc, or just wait a bit and it'll resolve itself.

I just tried a bit of Modern Warfare. It was laughable with touchscreen controls but it was responsive and looked/sounded good.

I’ve ordered a SteelSeries Nimbus to see what that’s like with it. If so I could live the dream of playing the PS4 upstairs on a 13” screen!

Nah, it spends it's time plugged in and charging (except for during our morning scrum) because the battery life is so awful now so that keeps it from roaming around the place. Amusingly it's also now left with it's face turned to the wall because apparently someone recently connected to it and was creepily watching the folks it sits behind.

If you like Left 4 Dead, 4 player coop and fast zombies this is getting some decent reviews and is based on a little known book and film.

Here’s a link to the Xbox video cause I’m too lazy to find the PS4 one.



It’s also on Xbox.

I don't think he played much of it. Reading between the lines on twitter, and inferring from the total lack of any coverage on any mainstream game sites, it looks to me like the review codes only went out this morning.

And here’s what he says

Quote:
13 or 14 hours. Our codes were from 5 days ago. Also just from a cursery look it broke street date 7 days ago, was streamed that many days ago and I saw folks with over 40. I would say that person just has absolutely no idea or didn't think it was worth covering or some other issue. Of course their is the additional many pieces of coverage that has been done. So that person also doesn't seem to know how to use the internet well. Just checked 4 other youtubers and 1 website. All got them on thursday or friday.

Not got one man just literally ran down to Game and grabbed it. I live on the end of a high street now, and after seeing it on offer for £279 with all of the games apart from Resi I cracked. Been wanting one for ages... Was a tough decision going Xbox but I guess now I won't feel mad I bought the wrong console.

Wanted the Pro, but I found out that my 4k TV in the living room is like, "old 4k" so 27hz and the Xbox One X refuses to run at 4k, dropping to 1080p instead. So it totally wasn't worth getting a pro really.

I'll set it up a bit later after dinner :)

Finally got home yesterday and set it up.

Do like

It's nice and small and fits nicely under my TV on the stand.
It updated quickly and without fuss
Graphics are bloody great. Even moreso in Days Gone.
I like the charging aspect of the controller as I didn't have to spend another tenner + on batteries and a charger.
Sleep mode (rest mode?) Is pretty neat and you can charge the controller.

Don't like

The controller. I am hoping I can get used to it as I'm swerving all over the place on the bike in Days Gone.
30 FPS. I was hoping I wouldn't notice but I do :( that may be why I'm all over the place riding the bike. Thing is it seems fine on foot.

That's about all. Very happy I have it, can now play The Last Of Us Remastered and God Of War.

I swear to god these new Messenger levels are goddamn infuriating. One section has taken 24 minutes to clear 5 screens and tried my sodding patience. Namely cause I was sometimes a bit shit. I thought my final run would be perfect and look awesome but of course I completely fluffed it and it looked extremely untidy as I was smashing all the buttons like a tit.

Great game though.
