    Seriously, if Sony had made the PS Portal capable of streaming cloud games on its own without the use of a PS5, they'd actually have a decent product on their hands
    Suddenly it's not an overpriced remote but rather a cheaper way to still enjoy PS5 games on the go, anywhere you want, without the need to buy a PS5
    Which of course is the crux of the issue, they want you to own a PS5 AND the Portal

      That's a completely different setup for them then though.
      At the moment, your PS5 is the workhorse, the Portal just streams.
      What you're suggesting would mean they would need entire datacentres of PS consoles setup to stream to the Portal. That would be an enormous startup cost.
      I'm not a fan of the Portal, but that would seem incredibly expensive for little payoff. The only way they could do that is if they had significant subscription fees as well every month.

      To be fair, you can do it a lot cheaper and a lot better.
      Instead of buying a £250 WD Black, but a Crucial P3 for £100 less.
      Instead of buying the stand, just don't and save £30. It's a piece of crap.
      Instead of buying the discless version and the disc reader, just buy the older version preowned for like £350. Save yourself another £150.
      Instead of buying the Portal, but a Steam Deck and stream to that.
      Most of this was a case of throwing money at something that is just bad to have a look.

    Thing about the PS Portal (PSP) is all those things are software issues, so they could be updated out. Add the feature to connect it to the PS+ Cloud Service; improve the streaming service with frame dropping; and if the CPU is strong enough; qualify some really light games as "PS Portal Compatible" and have them ablt to be played on the PSP. The unfortunate thing is as said, it doesnt have Bluetooth so you cant connect headphones etc..to it. And it doesnt have an SDcard Slot for saving extra "PS Portal" games too. If it had those 2 things, when they designed it then the whole thing could be enhanced. The could even still restrict it via software to still need to register with your PS5 to keep it enabled for the extra services via your Sony account.

    Every piece of hardware requires software or firmware to function. Firmware is stored on a flash chip while software is stored on a hdd/ssd. A disk drive requires firmware to communicate to the computer/console as well as operate the copyright checks and other initializations and the maintenance (updates) is required to keep copyright checks secure and also drives need firmware updates to prevent firmware flashing which can be used as an exploit to install malware or cfw.

      I like mine a lot, as someone who is unable to make $$$ by playing games and working long hours for the hospital; going through family issues, and reintroducing fighting cats in a townhouse apartment.
      It’s so nice to sit in my bed and play games without scraping performance or breaking my hands with those awful backbone addons that are already $100.
      $99 more for something dedicated; doesn’t eat my phone battery or time which again need it free for work. It makes sense for me.
      Always keep in mind what kind of person does “reviews” and why their opinion is ultimately worth a grain of salt; Austin is none of these things so his use case is different from mine where he sees flaw I see benefit.

    How did you find using the PSVR2 with glasses, Austin? Was it comfy, any light leak issues, and more importantly did it work with your prescription? I'd lie it myself, but I have the above concerns, plus the $876 AUD price tag. By comparison, a new PS5 Slim disc edition is $799.99 AUD.

      I'm not Austin, but I also have somewhat wide frames like he does and I had the same issue with the PSVR as I have with other headsets. The glasses fit, but they tend to either get pressed into your face or rub against the lenses. I think it's worth just getting prescription lens inserts to prevent any potential scratching

    The new ps5 is not a 'slim'. I dont understand why people keep referring to it as such. Its just the new model of the ps5 because Sony is going to phase the old one out. Sony has never referred to their models as the slim. Go back and look on any box, any advertisement or press conference that Sony has held. Never once does the word slim come up. Its just a revision of the console.

A word, clause, or sentence inserted as an explanation or _afterthought_ into a passage that is grammatically complete without it. That's the first time they have ever put the word slim on any of their consoles and it's just used as an _afterthought_, meaning it's unimportant information only used because people are to ignorant to look at the model number. Nowhere else on the PS5 console page does it say slim, it just says PS5. Go back and look at all the other PlayStation revisions and you won't find the word slim on any of them.

    I bought everything you did a PS5 but the disc drive version God of War edition, the PSVR2 Horizon edition on sale for $550 an Edge controller, as for a SSD Hard Drive I only got a 2tb SSD Hard Drive from Samsung since I prefer them over WD and it has the same performance specs. I didn't buy the camera since I have no use for it and I didn't buy the Playstation portal since I play on my Samsung S8 Ultra tablet and it won't fit in the Portal so I use my Edge controller instead. I didn't buy the Sony monitor either since I play on my 86" 4k UHD LG TV. In addition to the things you bought I also got black Darkplates with vent holes and an LED light fan kit that has a phone app to adjust it, plus I got the Playstation Pulse headphones and Pulse Explore earbuds and also a 3rd party 2 controller charger with blue LED lights and little LED controller icons on the front that turn from red to blue when the controllers are charged and I got one that would specifically work with the Edge controller, I also got a charger/stand for my PSVR2 headset and controllers, it charges the controllers with lights that turn from red to amber to blue to indicate charge level and it also acts as a stand that holds my PSVR2 headset on it as well. So all in all I spent around $2k on my PS5 setup about $1k less than you since I didn't buy a Sony monitor, Portal or camera. Of course that doesn't include the price of my TV or my JBL 9.1 Dolby Atmos soundbar, both of which I got on sale so the set me back around $3500 for both I believe. With my Xbox One X with 2tb add on Hard Drive, my super high end custom built computer and Gilikit KK3 Kingkong 3 Max controller that has back paddles like an Xbox One Elite controller but it only cost $80 instead of $180, plus it has magnetic hall effect analog sticks which have no moving parts so they never wear out or get stick drift, also it's styled like an Xbox One Elite controller however it will work with all platforms including Xbox One, PS5, Nintendo Switch, Windows computers, Android and iOS. Also I have my Samsung S8 Ultra which I can stream Xbox One and PS5 games on. With all that it's a totally killer setup and I freaking love it, it was worth every cent! It's hard to beat unless you also have an Xbox X and your stupid rich and can afford one of those 96" 8k OLED TVs that are like $25k!
