Had an email from ShopTo regarding my PS5 pre-order

"Dear Valued Customer,

We are delighted to confirm that you will able to receive your console for day one/release date delivery. "


Good news, i'd be surprised if not because I registered my interest for pre-order back at the beginning of April

Anyone know if Cyberpunk 2077 is getting a PS5/Xbox X release? Surely it is??

Picked this up on Xbox for 99c i couldn't turn down that bargain. We get the classic version of the game and some modernised versions of the game. The new versions have great sounds along with beautiful colours from the ship your fly yourself to the astreroids but the main attraction has to be the explosion the look brilliant lighting up the whole screen.

But in all honesty you can't beat the classic version yes its just black and white but the sounds are just amazing even when the asteroids just shatter like glass it still looks and sounds great.

The controls on both versions still takes a lot of skill to get used to firing is all about timing not just blasting away and hoping for the best also the thrusters takes a bit to master knowing the right time to stop and just how to stop before an asteroid sneaks up behind you and BLAAAAAAAM game over.

Still a blast and very addictive.

Few shots i took from my phone not easy to get a clear picture with all the action The backgrounds on the newer versions really pop with great vibrant colours.

Again i picked this collection up on the Xbox store for 3 bucks. Money well spent or money down the drain let's find out.

First off both classic versions of the games play just as you remember with that little bastard spider ruining your day just when your about the kill the final part of Centipede or Millipede. Still as fun addictive and maybe as frustrating as it was when we played it on our Atari 2600 years ago. I always loved when you finished of a Centipede or Millipede that the stage colours all changed what an exciting time we grew up in

The evolved versions of the games are pretty crazy. The colours are great really bright and vibrant neon colours but its more like an acid trip with the colours and 1992 German techno playing in the background. The explosions as you can see in the last picture look great but its hard to concentrate with so much going on almost giving you a feeling of are you actually playing the game or is your mind playing tricks on you I do think all the music and neon colours can be distracting and so making the game a little harder.

PS5 Complete teardown video - disclaimer "don't try this at home"
Make sure you turn subtitles on because the Sony dude is Japanese.

Liquid metal cooling system!
