all of these depend on what taxonomy you’re using. The botanical, legal, and everyday terms are all different. Example - tomato is legally classified as a vegetable for taxation purposes even though it’s botanically a fruit. Another example, seaweed is considered a vegetable even though it’s not even a plant.

It’s not a PLANT?? What is it then?

Elon Musk would be triggered by all these classifications.

Insomniac might be my new favourite devs. Spider-Man: Miles Morales is another wonderful game full of charm and personality to go with the great Rocksteady-esque combat and traversal.
Although I sort of wish the web slinging required you to alternate the triggers, and that it used the haptic resistance thing.

Elon Musk would be triggered by all these classifications. I was having the same thought. “Vegetables are fruit! Fruit are herbs! Cucumbers are shaped like vaginas! I married a pumpkin!” I’m starting to see this woke mind-virus he talks about.

I have to tell someone that I keep seeing “Sackboy’s Big Adventure” in a clearance bin and laugh because it makes me think they made a game of Buster Gonad and His Unfeasibly Large Testicles.

Not sure if came out in Oz, but there was a game featuring Buster: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viz:_The_GameThough, as listed on wiki, whether 'The One's review knowingly gave the game 68% or daren't/missed a trick by 1% is open to speculation.

Just wanted to pointlessly share that over the last two weeks using PSN sales, CEX and a £20psn Christmas present I've picked up Miles Morales, Forbidden West and Ratchet and Clank for an out of pocket total of £50. Feeling pretty chuffed with that.
Miles Morales looks absolutely insane in the performance RT mode.

Oh for real, Insomniac really have shown that you can do both RT and 60fps and have a great looking game. It's a testament to their engineers. I know it's only RT reflections but it's a shame bigger devs can't manage that. I can only think of Id Software who have been able to really reach that performance profile.

It's the texture detail and lighting too. Better looking than Horizon I reckon although Horizon seemed to get more accolades. Tried the 40fps mode but reckon 60 is the way to go.

Although not RT, gears of war games are an incredible tech showcase.

Yeah the Series X version of the latest Gears was a real showcase but I got bored before the end. Can't wait to see what The Coalition produce when they develop solely for next gen. Would say the same for Insomniac but Ratchet is PS5 exclusive already.

The Coalition's work on The Matrix tech is amazing when you factor they made it in a couple of weeks. I think there's some proof of concept that they did last year in character modelling which was pretty ridiculous.

Interesting. I wonder how much content it will feature. Just a few tracks and cars or much more...? Not explicity clear from that presentation.

Just noticed on the PS5 YouTube app you can check the video comments. Probably general knowledge but took me dropping the controller to find out. Was that always the case?

Could have at least put GT7 on there.

It's more handy than good, a few times I've been watching and want to check something and ended up googling the video title just so I could load it on phone as you can usually find things in comments without having to scroll far, like a song title or whatever. Saves me a couple of steps.

I cancelled my PS++ last night, so I have until the end of the month to finish Ghosts of Tsushima. It really is an absolutely wank service.

I'm regretting wasting money on the top tier. If it's the only service you have then it's probably decent value, but it just doesn't get a look-in when I've got GP too.

It really is an absolutely wank service. How so? - The interface is rubbish - games only available for streaming that were playable on PS4 - game selection is shit - barely any games get added - I’ve already played the handful of AAA exclusives in there - Game pass is 100x better If I only had a PS5 I still think you’d be better off just buying games in sales than subbing to it full time.

I definitely agree about the interface being terrible, TBF the whole upgrade path is terrible on PS. Like for example how I bought Miles Morales in Spain and because my PS store is set to UK I couldn't redeem the PS5 upgrade and had to make a Spanish account to get round which is just customer unfriendly it's beyond parody. I only have the 2nd tier fwiw because that ultimate tier just seems like a rip off.
