Trying to leave a mod team and when it asks “are you sure?” Pressing No works but pressing Yes does absolutely nothing.

Am I doing something wrong?

Update

Sony have confirmed that the deal with Microsoft will keep Call of Duty on PlayStation until at least 2033 which is likely to be about halfway through the PlayStation 6’s lifecycle.

Original story

With the FTC seemingly beaten and the CMA starting to cave to Microsoft Sony have signed a legally binding agreement to keep the Call of Duty games coming to PlayStation for the foreseeable future.

It’s not surprising really as up to 80% of Call of Duty’s revenue comes from PlayStation players. Neither Sony or Microsoft can afford to lose that much cash every year.

Project Q is the upcoming streaming only device that will allow you to play games installed on a PlayStation 5 remotely.
It has not been announced if the handheld will allow streaming of games from the cloud and is rumoured to cost between £250 - £300.

Will you be picking one up later this year?

The game for this weeks Video Game Book Club is 1996’s Resident Evil for the original PlayStation.

Resident Evil was the first game to use the term “survival horror” where the emphasis is as much on avoiding combat as it is trying to be prepared for it. Ammo and health items are scarce so each enemy encounter forced players to decide if it’s worth using precious resources to fight or finding ways to avoid the encounter.

Share your thoughts and experiences with Resident Evil in the comments.

I actually got Twisted Metal right from my prediction earlier today.🤩

It’s that time of the month when we find out which games will be adds to the Extra and Premium tier of PS Plus.

With the Twisted Metal TV show coming I wouldn’t be surprised to see some of the Twisted Metal games added to the Premium catalog.

As for Extra we might see the return of GTA V as that was recently added to GamePass again or maybe RDR2.

What do you think they will announce today and what do you hope to see.

Come back at 16:30 BST to find out if we were right. Or more likely how wrong we are.

This article assumes you prefer to play games on actual PlayStation hardware and not unofficial emulators.

I know what you’re thinking.

Buy console > plug it in > play games

Oh if only it was that easy. It used to be when we all had CRT TVs which is what these consoles are designed for. But unless you’re either really old or already into retro gaming you probably don’t have a CRT lying around.

So how do you play old PlayStation games on our modern 4K TVs? It would be a good idea to start to explain why it’s not as straight forward as just plugging the consoles in anymore.

The PlayStation 1 & 2 output analog signals to the TV usually via composite cables. Those are the red, white and yellow ones. For a CRT that was designed to accept analog signals it works perfectly with almost zero delay between the console sending the signal and image appearing on the screen and it looks nice a clear.

Your modern HD or 4K TV is expecting to receive a digital signal, preferably via HDMI. Some

There was no shortage of arcade racing games in the early years of the PlayStation. Need for Speed, Wipeout and of course Ridge Racer. But hot off the heels of the much slower paced and technically limited Destruction Derby came one of the best PS1 arcade racing games. Destruction Derby 2.

Released in the UK in January 1997 for the PS1, Destruction Derby 2 was a technical marvel when compared to its predecessor. Gone were the slower races on flat and narrow tracks, replaced with fast paced circuits with steep hills and jumps. Psygnosis took the Destruction Derby formula and turned it up to 11.

There are 3 distinct game modes, Wrecking racing, where players must score points by crashing out their opponents. Stock car racing, a more traditional race where the aim is to simply finish 1st and Destruction Derby. These events take place in arenas where the goal is to be the last car standing and also have the most points.

The meat of the game are the two championship modes. One for wrec

Is the PS3 retro? Possibly not but here goes anyway.

2012’s Need for Speed Most wanted takes the franchise closer to it’s roots than it’s been for a long time. Need for Speed games of old gave you some fast cars drive and maybe some police to outrun, there was mostly no story with an absurd amount of cutscenes getting in the way back then. Most Wanted is more like those old games.

The “story” such that it is involves you beating the 10 racers on the Most Wanted list. To do this you’re given access to every car in the game to use in whichever order you want. The only catch is you have to find them in the open world before you can drive them. However there is nothing stopping you from just driving around the world, which is fully unlocked from the start, and finding all 41 cars before doing your first event after the tutorial.

To earn enough points to take on a Most Wanted racer each car has 5 events to complete. These range from simple circuit races to escape the police challenges. T

In 1997 racing games for the PlayStation were arcade racers. Sim racers were confined to PC and at the time it was thought that consoles just weren’t made for sims. The main problem racers had on PlayStation is the controller only had a d-pad and digital buttons. So for controlling the car the steering was either off or full lock. Same for the throttle and the brake. So one month before the launch of Gran Turismo Sony released the first Dualshock controller equipped with two analogue sticks that could provide finer and more accurate control of games. It also featured built-in vibration motors so players could now feel the games.

Then along comes Gran Turismo in December 1997 and showed the world that serious sim racing games belonged on PlayStation. Offering a massive 140 cars and 11 circuits (21 if you count the reverse layouts) and dozens of parts for you to upgrade your cars with.

The amount of credits you’re given to start means you’ll be heading for the used cars and probably a

When most people think of the Vita they think of the only real PlayStation hardware to flop. But for those of that owned, and still own a Vita it’s quite possibly the best handheld ever made.

The games are amazing, the console in comfortable to hold and that OLED screen is absolutely stunning. Some games that are available on PS4 are sometimes best played on the Vita. Crypt of the Necrodancer is one example. It’s colours pop a lot more on the Vita and it’s just more fun too.

But if you haven’t played Fall Guys via remote play then do yourself a favour and try it. Fall Guys was made for the Vita. It suits the handheld perfectly for a quick session when perhaps the TV is otherwise engaged with the little spawns watching Peppa Spongbob The Builder or whatever kids watch these days.

In fact the Vita is so good and was so ahead of it’s time Sony could start producing them again now in 2023 and releasing games and it would still be one hell of a good system.

It’s such a massive shame

The game will become free on PS4 & PS5 in September 28th.

In the last update to Burning Shores a memorial to the late, great Lance Reddick was added. Unfortunately as it’s on the DLC map it’s only accessible to players on PS5.

They managed to emulate the PS3 with its almost infamous CPU so this should be no problem for them.
