    Let's review The Backbone: Playstation Edition!
    At first, I was pretty disappointed because I wanted to play Genshin Impact on my phone with it. I saw a bunch of ads showing people playing Genshin Impact, but I didn't see anywhere that it only worked for IOS and NOT Androids. Maybe I didn't pay attention and maybe most of these were tiktok/social media influencers/streamers doing sponsored ads so I guess they didn't really need to mention it...but still...it was pretty disappointing.
    Anyway, I was able to use Playstation's Remote Play to use my phone to play Genshin so was still able to enjoy my BackBone. My Remote Play experience was actually pretty good! I often use my backbone when I'm traveling and sometimes when I want to play in the comfort of my bed (my playstation is in the livingroom). However, this all got even better with Backbone's recent firmware update!
    With The Backbone's recent firmware update...they've added a feature called Touchsync. Which is basically a key mapper for games that don't have controller support. So this was a complete game changer and made me so happy that I can finally play Genshin Impact directly from my phone and without having to remote in to my PS5. It isn't perfect and it does take some getting used to - using buttons with the key mapper for battle and exploration and then having to use touchscreen for navigating menus, but I'm happy I have an option to play Genshin on my Android device with a controller!
    So, would I recommend the backbone? Yes! Definitely! I know there are a bunch of similar products out there and I haven't tried any of those...but I am loving my Backbone and would recommend it to anyone that wants to use their mobile device for gaming. I also have been debating on whether or not to get a Playstation Portal...but since this is working for me AND I can use it on my phone for non-playstation games...I think I'll hold off on the Portal for now.

      How is it better??? I promise you if you try the portal assuming you regularly use remote play then you won't go back to the backbone

    • @CVGTigz
      @CVGTigz  8 місяців тому

      @joelmeza123 I like remote play and enjoy using it...however if I am traveling I found that remoteplay kinda sucks when the internet speed isn't that great. Depending on the hotel, the wifi speed often sucks. So in that case, I'd rather play Genshin directly on my phone with a keymapper. The Portal does look amazing and the controllers look like they feel more comfortable...but for now I'll stick to the backbone especially since the portal is strictly remote play.

    • @Damnitgary
      @Damnitgary 8 місяців тому +1

      @CVGTigz that makes alot of sense actually...
      If it helps, I don't use my tv to play when I'm home anymore ever since I've gotten the portal, maybe that'll make your genshin more easier to access when home

      @@Damnitgary Yea i'm still debating on whether or not I'd like to get one. I'm torn between the G8 Galileo and the Portal...mainly because the backbone's controllers are quite small and i feel like the portal or the g8 would feel more comfortable since I would be using it for longer periods of time.

    Do you need to be near your console to use this? And does your game progress transfer to this?

    • @CVGTigz
      @CVGTigz  8 місяців тому

      If you are remoting into your playstation 4 or 5, you don't have to be near it. Hard wired connection on the playstation is highly recommended for better quality and performance. It does work on wifi, but if you don't have fast internet speed, the quality won't be that great.

    • @CVGTigz
      @CVGTigz  8 місяців тому

      when I say "hard wired", I mean your playstation should be hard wired into your router. My playstation is in my livingroom and I play from my bedroom with no problem. it also works outside of home provided that your phone has a strong/fast internet connection.

    Can you move the buttons? I have a fold and they dont line up.

    • @CVGTigz
      @CVGTigz  3 місяці тому

      In touch sync or the actual buttons? The physical buttons are not removable. As for touchsync, currently there is no touch screen customizable key mapping...which I and many others have been trouble with the buttons lining up with the mapped buttons on the screen. At the moment I've been recommending the Galileo G8 to people since the mapping is able to be customized. I did get a new backbone that they replaced mine with...I just havent checked to see if that corrected the incorrect mapping of buttons.

    I enabeled touchsync mode in the menu, but how do I actually set the controls in game? All the backbone app say is to start the game from the backbone app... could you held me?

    • @CVGTigz
      @CVGTigz  8 місяців тому +1

      Hi! yes, make sure to start the game using the backbone launcher. when you're in the game.. press the menu button on the controller...it's the bottom right button next to the orange backbone button. this will open the touchsync menu...you just need to select exploration option (or swimming when you're swimming) and just press x to activate it. you'll then see the key map overlay over your touchscreen buttons. there's also a tiny circle menu button on the top left where your map is at. you can hold and drag that button to move it. I always accidentally hit it when I try to open my map so u can move it wherever. I hope that helps!

      @benjaminschonleber5833 since it is a new feature I think it only works for some games and maybe they'll add support for more games in the future. it would be nice if we could customize it. maybe they'll add that in the future as well.
