Playstation 5

Has anyone upgraded the hard drive space? I'm aware that you need an internal solution for the games to actually work rather than be 'stored' and so I looked into it and there was talk of needing heat sink also which is kind of above my pay grade. I just want a 2 TB thing to plug in and it work without any other considerations and worried I may spunk a load of money on the wrong thing. Anyone have knowledge on this?

I did it a while back so had some knowledge but have forgotten most of it. I got a WD Black, may have posted about it in this thread but on phone right now. Search my posts.

OK, I found your below post which is a good starting point.

 
I went for the WD Black internal SSD as I had an unexpected windfall just before Xmas. I went for the heatsink version. I did see a geeky website that said you could get away without one if you left the internal SSD lid off but I'm not risking it
I wouldn't risk melting hundreds of pounds of tech for the sake of fifty quid or whatever either.
 
If it helps with your buyers remorse:
The one I bought in the new year is working perfectly , in fact I forget it existed

In January is cost me £328, so your £200 is a massive step in helping reduce inflation figures.
I actually thought it was cheaper but checked shipping details today (so also the bill) and realised they hadn't added VAT to the amazing offer. £328 sounds harsher though.
 
I sold my iPhone 12 the other day and put the money toward the PS5. I’ve largely still go PS4 games (unfortunately I bought the disc version of battlefield so can’t upgrade it) but it came with that ragnarok game to play.

Of course it’s making me want a 4K tv now 😂😂

Do it properly and go OLED. :p
 

I very, nearly bought the VR2 - but its difficult to justify the price as I am a casual gamer.
But that, does look pretty good.

Many reports about disappointing sales for the VR2. Maybe the price will drop in time.

Im a bit dubious after VR 1 gave me nausea and headache that lasted longer then the experience.

Me too and I do not suffer from motion sickness.

Someone explained to me why the VR1 were so bad, I think it's something to do with frame rate but I forget, can't afford one anyway so I didn't commit it to memory.

Frame rate will def get you.

For most people the sickness goes away after a bit. Just need to not push it and do something else if you feel woozy. Brain adjusts soon enough.

I think the PSVR2 is still just too pricey for non-hardcore gamers / people who aren’t already into VR.

They got lucky with Quest 2 due to people being locked in during the pandemic imo.
 
Just been paid for the first time in months, fisrt thing I've done after sorting mounting up bills was get another ps5 to replace the one I had to sell when skint.

Got a bundle with God of war : Ragnarok, MW2 , Forspoken and Saints row. Not fussed about the second 2 but can trade them in or sell them.

Will be nice to be back.
Nice! We friends on PSN?
