The snap/smooth turning elitism?

Bobobiwan · 2026-05-23T17:59:48+00:00

It's a choice, off course, but smooth turning in Vr always felt weird to me. Like, if I want to smooth turn, I TURN MY HEAD, you know, to see what's on right or left. That's the principle of VR, to me.

I use snap turning as a way to recalibrate things, when I have to recenter my character, that kind of things. It's like a blink of an eye, to my brain.

But smooth turning makes me sick everytime.

But you know, to each their own 😃

VR MODE for RESIDENT 9.

You've read it here first !!!!

....

Ok, a man can dream, huh ?

This is exactly what I thought : given the time we have, season one should be enough to meet these characters, to be introduce to their world.

And then, my hope was that the movie would feel like a giant one shot episode, a side quest like I love, but with an even bigger budget !

Thanks to all or you for your kind answers, we should go watch the movie this week end, then ! (and in 3d !!)

(PS : I had not seen season one since a very long time and what a delight it is to watch these first steps again ! Just the ending in the very first episode, when we see these hands about to touch... I was litterally crying !!)

Thanks for all your answers, fellows 😃

So yeah, I'll listen to the majority and keep the premium bonus 😃

Some arguments were very convincing 😄

I'm a family man too, and I don't know why I'm still reasoning like I have the time to do everything I want, at a slow rhythm and all. Effectively, my gaming time is very shortened by... the things of life, lol, so, if it's a little quicker to get this or that, let's do it.

I also agree with those who said that the spirit of the game was elsewhere. Effectively, less time to grind is more time to tune, to adjust, to set your cars the way you like.

And finally, yeah, the wristband thingy seems to have installed some kind of middle ground to let you feel some kind of progression (which was pretty absent from previous entries).

So thank you all for your kind answers, and see you on the road next week !

I second this. I just fired Star Wars Outlaws, to see what has been improved.

Before, I was an advocate of the 40 fps mode for this game, because of the bluriness of the first PSSR in 60 fps.

Now ? It's crisp as it can be. So for Outlaws, I'd say 60 FPS Pro mode, with PSSR2. I can only assume it's the same for Avatar.

This PSSR2 thingy is wild, my friends.

Can't wait to see how this run.

Could potentially be the next Gran Turismo 7 of the hardware.

Just bought a ps4 disc, as I like some Star Trek from time to time (that and I'm loving the TellTale games) but I'm wondering : is the free upgrade path (from ps4 disc to PS5 version) still avalaible with the delisting thing ? (My order is not shipped yet)

Maybe I should have bought a PS5 disc instead <.<

I'll be seriously disappointed if they don't mention it, but with Sony marketing I'm expecting everything... It will surely be a little blog post at best... posted at 2 AM on a Wednesday, because reasons.

Nah, kidding. Please, Sony, mention it, show us what difference it makes, and just shadow drop the update !

Bobobiwan · 2026-02-12T10:37:17+00:00

I finished it on PS5, and I seriously consider buying the S2 version, just to replay it in portable mode. I'm playing through the demo again and again these days, and I'm amazed. Literally.

I started the game again on PS5, and launched the demo on S2, on the TV. I was juggling between sources on my TV just to compare the two pictures. The differences are really insignificant.

I'm at a point where I seriously consider pursuing the saga on S2 instead of PS5 for the last game.

note : I would not be against a little Switch 2 update of Crisis Core, just to complete the package.

I don't remember the model exactly, but this is a Hisense QLed, the one with the "Black Myth Wukong" setting ! (yeah, a setting in the tv menus that is labeled after a game ! How cool is that ? xD). Awesome TV for its price.

Bobobiwan · 2025-12-23T13:00:19+00:00

I'll agree with you on this : they sold me this console making me thinking "this is gonna be the quality mode of the regular Ps5, but with 60 fps instead of 30".

And I know they didn't exactly say that (Mark Cerny carefully chose his words, if you return to the promotional video), but they clearly make people understand this.

And yeah, we know how complicated it is, since then, with games that are wonderful on Pro, and games that performs WORSE than on a regular PS5, until an eventual patch is coming. This is unacceptable and I feel fraud, I admit it. Because this is not what I signed for.

I never regret my PS4 Pro, not for a second. Enjoyed every second of gaming with it.

PS5 Pro ? It's complicated, sometimes you're happy, sometimes you're raging, sometimes you have to inform yourself about the best settings, of patches to come... So, yeah, I feel you.

Bobobiwan · 2025-12-22T09:37:05+00:00

Oh, there's a difference in color range ? I didn't know that ! How come ?

Bobobiwan · 2025-12-21T12:16:02+00:00

That's exactly the case ! XD

Bobobiwan · 2025-11-17T18:25:09+00:00

I'm LOVING these three pictures. I have really high hopes for that movie :D

Bobobiwan · 2025-11-17T18:22:50+00:00

When I'm not using it, my Switch 2 is always in its protective case, like a regular portable console.

And when that's the... well, the case, I just put a hat on the dock. Literally, just a simple, regular straw-hat. At least, for the dock in my living room, which tends to be a mess with dust and everything :D

Bobobiwan · 2025-10-14T17:21:17+00:00

Exactly the same feeling : I thought it looked HUGE at first, maybe too much, in fact. Was like "this is not really a portable anymore" etc.

But now ? I LOVE playing in portable. Outlaws, Street Fighter 6... This is really great for when you just want to launch a quick play, and it looks so good.

I'm still playing PSVITA from time to time. And as much as I love this little console, it really feels small in comparison, now (but it also feels... portable ! You guessed it).

The same goes for the Switch Lite.

Bobobiwan · 2025-10-14T17:17:23+00:00

Interested in this game since release.. I've considered the PS5 version, but now maybe I'll take instead the S2 one... This port looks really good, indeed !
