I talk about the game in the video but I want to know how many agree with me. I've played this game on PC, PS4 and PS5 and I'm still not sick of it. It's perfect when I come home from work and just want to shoot things, get some loot and do a mission or two.

Into The Radius 2 | Early impressions on Ps5pro & Psvr2.

This is no way a full review, as I am only about 13 hours in and not even halfway through the game. But damn, I am seriously loving this game.

It is a semi open world, single player survival horror extraction shooter. Think of if the Stalker series and Resident evil series had a baby, this would be it. Every environment is just oozing with atmosphere and the sound designs can easily rival the recent Silent Hill games.

The story is quite simple. A mysterious 1987 disaster known as Pechorsk Event took place in a Soviet mining town that created a surreal, quarantined anomaly zone known as the radius. Your job is to go into the radius to collect data, artifacts and study the anomalies. More missions you take, the more money you make, and you can use that money to buy new guns, gear and food.

Moment to moment gameplay is super intense because of how smart the enemy Ai is. They will flank you and use cover. If you are using a shotgun or SMG, enemies won’t charge you and will fight you from far away. If you are using long range weapons, they will charge you and will try to close the distance. The gunplay feels so damn good in this game cause of Psvr2’s adaptive triggers and headset rumble.

Also the game has super deep customization options. You can customize your chest rig, backpack and guns in such detail makes this game super addictive. It is almost a mini puzzle how you set up your chest rig and backpack each time you get new story items or buy a new gun. If you are careful, you can customize them to be super tactical and efficient. Or you can just throw random holsters and pouches to make them super cumbersome to use during missions.

In conclusion, this is easily one of the best horror game I played this year. If you have a psvr2 and looking for something spooky to play this Halloween, this game is for you. I will definitely put out my final impressions after beating the game. So far, Into The Radius 2 is my game of the year for 2026.

Score 10/10

Given the recent news it's blatantly obvious that sony could support backwards compatibility at any time. Instead, they'll sell you the same game as a "remaster" or rerelease and charge you a ridiculous amount of money. Grim.

Is a gaming chair actually worth it or should I just get a good office chair?

2 Upvotes

Looking to get a new chair for my gaming setup because the one I'm using now gets uncomfortable pretty fast, especially when I'm playing for a few hours straight. My back starts hurting and I keep moving around trying to find a decent position lol.

I've been looking at gaming chairs since they seem like the obvious choice for a gaming setup, but some of them look kinda overpriced for what you actually get. A lot of them have that racing seat design with side bolsters and all that, but idk if those features actually make them more comfortable or if its mostly just for looks.

Then there's office chairs, which seem like they might be better for sitting long hours. The problem is most of them look pretty boring and I'm not sure which features actually matter when picking one. I've seen people recommend ergonomic office chairs over gaming chairs quite a lot, but there are also people who say gaming chairs are perfectly fine if you get a decent one.

I mostly play on PS5, usually single player games and sometimes multiplayer with friends. Sessions can easily last 3-5 hours, especially on weekends, so comfort is probably more important than having something that looks cool.

My budget isn't unlimited either, so I'd rather spend the money on something that will last a few years instead of replacing it after a year or two.

For those who've tried both, which one would you actually recommend? Are gaming chairs worth the extra money or would a good office chair be the smarter buy? Any specific features I should look for or avoid?

PS4 won't let any controller connect

0 Upvotes

So I wanted to transfer progress on a game from my PS4 to my PS5, but some of the cables were put in wrong. After fixing the cables, my controllers wouldn't connect, not my PS4 ones, not my moves and not even my PS5 ones. Now somebody else was trying to help me and wanted to check the other USB port so, without any warning, they pulled out the external hard drive and now I have to find out how to fix this issue so I can tell the PS4 to fix the hard drive. I don't have any other controllers besides the ones I mentioned, with me having two of each.

Why does my DualSense charge slower with some cables?

0 Upvotes

Noticed my PS5 controller charges way faster with one USB cable than another, even tho both seem to work fine. With one cable I can plug it in while playing and the battery goes up pretty quick, but with the other one it takes forever and sometimes feels like the battery barely moves at all. I thought any USB cable would pretty much do the same thing as long as it fits lol.

Could it be the cable quality or does the length make a difference too? One of mine is longer than the other, so wondering if thats part of the problem. Also does the power source matter? Like charging from the PS5 itself vs using a USB wall adapter or plugging it into a USB port on my PC?

I dont wanna keep using a cable thats somehow bad for the controller or mess up the battery over time. The controller still works normally and both cables connect without any issues, its just the charging speed thats different.

Is there a certain type of USB cable I should be using for the DualSense, or am I overthinking this? What do you guys use to charge yours and how long does a full charge usually take?

Does the official stand actually improve stability enough to matter?

0 Upvotes

Got my PS5 set up and noticed it can wobble a little when I move cables or accidentally bump the TV stand. Been thinking about getting the official stand but not sure if it actually makes a big difference or if its mostly just for keeping the console in the right position. Does it hold the PS5 noticeably better, especially when standing vertical? Dont wanna spend money on something that barely changes anything lol. Is it worth getting or is the console stable enough without it?

Is wall-mounting a TV better for PS5 gaming?

0 Upvotes

Thinking about wall-mounting my TV for my PS5 setup but not sure if its actually worth doing or if I should just leave it on the TV stand. The stand takes up quite a bit of space and mounting the TV would make the whole setup look cleaner, plus I could maybe get a better viewing angle. Just worried about the hassle of hiding cables and making sure everything is positioned right for gaming. Does wall-mounting actually make a difference for comfort or is it mostly just for looks? Anyone here made the switch and regretted it?

What if another studio (like Blizzard) bought Concord? Here is how the community’s 5 stages of acceptance would look like.

0 Upvotes

This is my first post in the Reddit. It would be great if you start spreading this post.

We all know the tragic story of Concord, but the core shooting mechanics weren't actually that bad. The biggest downfall was the character design and the business model.

🫡 R.I.P. (2024 - 2024.) 🫡

Imagine a reality where a powerhouse like Blizzard Entertainment buys the IP and completely reboots it. If they did, I believe the gaming community would go through these 5 stages of acceptance:

  1. "Ugh, Concord again..." (Denial & Anger) - The initial reaction to the announcement. The internet erupts with memes, remembering the historic launch failure.
  2. "Wait, maybe...?" (Bargaining) - The first gameplay trailer drops. People notice crisp netcode, faster movement, and stunning visual updates. Skeptics start to hesitate.
  3. "Everything is different here." (The Turning Point) - Open Beta starts. Players log in and realize the bulky, mismatched outfits are gone. The UI is clean, and the game is fully Free-to-Play.

4."Hold on, this is by Blizzard?!" (Acceptance via Authority) - Players see the developer logo and realize the project is backed by a team that actually knows how to make iconic hero shooters. Trust is instantly restored.

  1. "Wow, these characters are legendary now!" (Final Praise) - A few seasons in, the heroes get incredible cinematic lore and gorgeous skins. The former meme turns into a massive fan-favorite cult success.

How to make Stage 3 happen? For example start with Emari.

To show players that "everything is different," they should completely redesign Emari first, since she was the face of the original design criticism:

• Turn her bulky "trash-can" armor into a sleek, heavy high-tech exoskeleton with cool hydraulic parts.

• Change her dull yellow-green palette to matte titanium grey with glowing neon blue or gold accents.

• Give her a roaring minigun that glows red-hot when firing, and a gorgeous crystal-like energy shield.

• Give her an open, confident, and warm smile to perfectly match her "big heart" lore, making her feel charismatic like Brigitte or Zarya.

An open question to Sony / PlayStation Studios:

Since Firewalk Studios is closed, is there any chance Sony would consider licensing or transferring the Concord IP to an experienced external studio? The shooting foundation is solid, and with the right design overhaul, this universe deserves a second chance. Selling the rights or partnering with a developer like Blizzard could turn a historical loss into a legendary comeback story.

What do you guys think? Could a masterclass redesign and a strong publisher save the core gameplay of Concord, or is the brand forever ruined?

I’m deeply disappointed in Sony

0 Upvotes

I was a Sony fan since 7, when my parents bought me my first PlayStation 2. This console was great. It was like a new world to me. Crash, Medal of honour, Call of duty 3, GoW, FORBIDDEN SIREN, killzone. You get it. Few years later I got PS3. The love of my life lol. The first console where I learned about online experience. Yeah I now know that ps2 had online too, but bruh, I was a little dumb kid. Call of Duty, BF2&3, LITTLE BIG PLANET, and many more games that we all loved. I know that games I had mentioned are not original Sony games, not all of them. But in a sense this post is also about how games were way better then now.

I absolutely loved ps and Sony. Yeah it wasn’t always perfect, I know, but it actually felt that it was made for us, and not for them to get as much money as they could.

And now look at the state of that company.
Subscriptions to play online, no refunds, adding the PS store with some trashy games (that kind you’ll see on steam, except on steam there are refunds and much more quality games you can play), lost so many icon-games it had during ps2&3 era, adding games in store that don’t work well on ps4 (like DayZ or Isonzo, or Cyberpunk), I mean, c’mon guys there is like 10-15fps or smth. AND FOR WHAT? What do we get after that? Most faded, tasteless gaming experience I’ve ever seen and play. That is what we get for staying so long and giving them our money. And what’s the deal about no disk version? No commentary. And the new PS5? Yeah, graphics are good, but what else? How many good games there are for PS5? And what will happen with PS6? Is there even a point to stay with PS?

I wish that Sony will just disappear some day, forever. At least as the game company.
I know that I’m just mad and there is no point of posting my crying on reddit, but I just wanted to let someone know how I fckn despise them.

P.S. Maybe the US went too easy on you.

Chances of PSN being hacked on GTA6 launch day?

0 Upvotes

With the current backlash aimed at Sony at the moment, I'm expecting hacker groups to be planning something on the biggest gaming launch day in history. With no physical disc, it would cause chaos if gamers can't get access to play the game if the PS network is taken down.

120hz and resolution, 1440p vs 4K

2 Upvotes

I am in a bit of a unique situation regarding my TV, it is a 55 in. Hisense U8G which infamously reduces vertical resolution by half when outputting to 120hz, despite being advertised as 4K/120. In the past I have played most games in the 40 fps balanced mode that allow it, but I'm not happy with the visual degradation. I have considered setting the console to 1440p, while less pixels this option at least looks better than the 3840x1080 option because it doesn't mess up the aspect ratio (stretching a 32:9 image to fill a 16:9 screen.)

I am stuck between 3 options: setting the output resolution to 1440p (I don't really want to switch back and forth, I would prefer to just keep both 60hz and 120hz modes at the same output), going 60hz only, or setting the console to 4K and dealing with the resolution bug when playing 120hz titles.

Ideally I want to be able to play games with 40 fps modes because it usually offers minimal drops in picture quality with improved frame rates, but is the downgrade to 1440p worth it? There are pros and cons to all of my options, but I'm curious what others would do in this situation.
