    is the portal better with digital games or hard copy games? it seems like if you own a physical copy of a game, it needs to be in the playstation 5 in order for your portal to play it, whereas a digital copy allows you to play all your games?

    • @unbornG4
      @unbornG4 5 місяців тому +1

      That is correct. If you have a physical game set up, whatever game is in the slot will be the game you will be able to play. Digital is the better option for the portal if you want yo switch between games and you're not home.

    Teh Portal selling point, afaict, is same tactility as the DualSense and a fairly large screen for a mobile player at a lower price than the SteamDeck.
    But there are other caveats, you need to:
    1) not already have another handheld 2) only want to play PS5 games 3) have a really good connection wherever you are

    • @CJTheTokay
      @CJTheTokay 6 місяців тому +5

      The steam deck or any other pc handheld shouldn’t be compared to the portal, pc handhelds can play games natively the portal can only stream and needs a ps5 to work so basically it’s $700, $500 for the ps5 and $200 for the portal it’s not cheaper than the steam deck

    • @rileybusse9351
      @rileybusse9351 4 місяці тому +1

      Yes it might be $500 to $700 in total But if you've already had A PS5 for a while it's only $200 lol My only question is it's a PS5 remote player for PS5 butt It's remote play only which should mean things connected to a PS4 all you have to do is just Pair the PlayStation 5 controller to PS4 And it works amazingly you're telling me it wont-work with the PlayStation portal I would love to see a video on that Playing PlayStation portal on PS4 I mean it is a remote player it should just work common sense

    Your internet service speed getting upgraded will not affect the quality on portal. That's 100% just your internal wifi. (Except when you play from outside your home.)

    • @corey_massey
      @corey_massey 6 місяців тому +2

      For 100.00 the Backbone seems much more of a waste than the portal which has its own screen which is bigger than most every phone on the market. Also Portal has all the dualsense features, allows you to use your phone for other things while you game and doesn't require you to take your phone out of the case to play on it. At 200.00 Sony knew exactly who they were targeting with the PS Portal because the Portal renders the Backbone controller absolutely useless, imo. I say this as someone who waited a long time for the PS branded Backbone controller and got one at launch only for the Portal to release and now I am giving my Backbone to my kid so they can play Fortnite with it on the go.

    Fun fact....when playing in your home, your internet speed doesn't matter as much because you connect it to your PS5 through the shared Wifi network in your home. So as long as you have at least a 5mbps upto 15mbps wifi connection your Portal will work perfectly in your home on wifi. Outside your home, your internet speed will be more of a determining factor as faster internet speeds will be needed for maintaining a stable connection. It also helps if you Port forward certain ports in your router to allow outside devices to conncet into your home wifi.

    I think this is more of a gimmick that anything that can really be taken seriously. The fact you said you wondered how it will fair on a 1gb internet connection shows you’re not thinking about it’s intended purpose, which is to take it out and about. If you’re at home with your 1gb internet then you’d just play the actual console. This is a no for me, along with their overly expensive headphones which are no better than a mediocre set from TK Max.
