My 7yo is really enjoying Burnout Paradise, because he can just drive around without having to do anything. Sometimes he just hits boost and smashes everything up, sometimes he treats it like a driving sim and drives with the rest of the traffic and stops at all the red lights

Fuck it, ordered one.
I'll get the PS Plus Extra scrip in time for Xmas, and get it all set up on 23rd.

I'm thinking Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart would be a good'un, too?

Initially got excited at the news it will be delivered tomorrow - then remembered it has to sit in its box until 23rd December at the earliest.
Think I need another controller, Ratchet & Clank and PS Plus Extra. And maybe 2018's God of War.

@goatapocalypse Also. Whilst not exaclty utilising the power of the PS5, three games that are absoulte musts for playing with the children: Human Fall Flat Totally Reliable Delivery Service Speedrunners Me and the boy laugh ourselves stupid playing the top two and the bottom one is just fucking excellent (might be a bit difficult to play with younger children though). TRDS and Speedruners are literally 3 quid each on PSN right now for the complete editions and if HFF isn't, it will be soon.
Oh. Also Goat Simluator. The sequel is out but the first one is still delightfully silly.
Despite the fact that me and the boy co-op all the souls games and Destiny regularly, it's these delightfully stupid couch co-op games that really get us laughing our big silly heads off.

Yep. Got to make sure the games are all installed and updated and ready to go in case of ddos attacks etc which frequently happen over the festive period. You'll also need to thoroughly test for stick drift to avoid disappointment on Christmas day. Around 30 hours is usually sufficient testing.

Christ, I read that as dildo attacks. My first thought was "ah, you've done Christmas in the Highlands before then".

Well, it is Monday after all. If ever an attack was going to happen, it would be on a Monday.

It did occur to me that a thorough QA process would only be right, but it'll be difficult to hide it from the kids when they're over here. That being said, there's a full week when they won't be here from 7pm on Wednesday...

Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart doesn't seem to be there... That's weird. It's definitely in the collection.

I think Rift Apart is err, a part of the Extra lineup, but not the PS Collection that every PS5 owner gets.

No, Rift Apart I believe is one of the games absent from any of the collections, the Premium collection has every Ratchet game minus Rift Apart. It's quite a shitty move tbh, but they've said select games will not be available on the subscription services.

You'll have to cough up 70 large for that.
So fuck that!

For you, I would say Demon's Souls is a must. If Souls games aren't your thing, then Returnal should be on the list instead.
Both are great showcases for what the system can do and are really great games in their own right.
Not for the little 'uns though.

I think I'll make do with some PS+ games for a bit - if I like HZD and GoW then there are some obvious ports of call to spend some cash, but also want to try FFVII Remake. And wondering whether the Spider-Man games are all that...

Oh, and Bloodborne again. Sadly seems like you can't get wipEout Omega anymore, though.

Quite. I've got some Switch games I can trade in, too.

Spidey Miles Morales is excellent. It's the same as Spidey but I gelled with it more.
