Decided to replay “Horizon: Zero Dawn” and my PS5 offered to let me upgrade it to the PS5 version for just $10, which is a tough sell insofar as I have yet to be able to distinguish PS5 graphics from PS4

They tell me the PS5’s graphics are better, but so far its main benefit over the PS4 seems to be that switching to an SSD lets games load in less time than it takes to get a master’s degree

@jalefkowit Aside: My brain always tries to read that as “Horizon: Zero Dark Thirty” and locks up, so I don’t know if I’m ever going to play that game. What game?
-
@flyingsaceur It’s a triumph of marketing: a name so uninspired and generic it slid cleanly off my brain every time I encountered it for years
-
@jalefkowit same marketing strategy as Edge of Tomorrow: a name so inane that they had to call it by the tagline “Live, Die, Repeat” which is still so inane that I stopped watching the movie halfway through and didn’t finish it for ten years
Or maybe it was the D-Day Curse

@flyingsaceur I remember trying to talk my dad into going to see the Firefly movie with me, and he’d never heard of Firefly so all he knew was that it was called “Serenity” and he was therefore convinced I was dragging him to a Meryl Streep weepie
-
@jalefkowit I mean back when I played the PS3 I had swapped an SSD into it. Not sure who in their right mind would be gaming any other way.

@ocdtrekkie I hope you can come along with me in understanding that the vast majority of people who buy game consoles take whatever hardware comes in the box.
