Too bad people can’t actually buy one..

phoenixwing1244d ago (Edited 1244d ago )

you're not wrong, it was a crazy year last year for gpu's and probably won't get fixed for some months

ProjectVulcan1243d ago

Expect the shortages to last another 3 months at most and a raft of new models will fill out the lineups for PC gaming to accelerate ahead

--Onilink--1243d ago

Probably more than 3 months, the problem with GPUs as opposed to consoles is crypto mining.

Scalpers usually lose interest once resale prices start going down but there is always demand for miners

CaptainHenry9161243d ago

It's going to be the same for the RTX 3080TI

vTuro241243d ago

Truth. I don't even care about the benchmarks anymore. There is literally not a single 3070 or 3080 in stock where I'm from.

Zombieburger6381243d ago

We are in the middle of a pandemic. Stop crying over a luxury used for gaming.

Psychotica1243d ago (Edited 1243d ago )

And people are starving around the world and always have been so should we never live our lives because of it?

anubusgold1243d ago (Edited 1243d ago )

You could buy them day one but newegg rips you off on shipping even in the US. I had a 3080 in my cart but after tax and neweggs expensive shipping it went from 699 to 850 dollars i knew i was being ripped off because no way shipping should be 50 dollars in the US with no insurance so i canceled the order. Actually it was more than that because newegg always takes away the cheap shipping option on high demand items. After tax the order for the 3080 i was buying was 776 dollars the rest was newegg shipping fees thats a bunch of BS and thats why i canceled the order.

For a few months when i bought the 2070 super in april i felt like i was close to cutting edge, now I'm mid tier at best lol

Edit: Don't regret my purchase though would have been hell to get a 2070 super later on

IanTH1243d ago

At least you can use some of the fancy RT and DLSS tech. I'm still stuck on my GTX 1080, so you've got me beat at least!
-------
Rambly bit!

And when I upgrade, I'm still not gonna have "cutting edge" money. The GTX 1080 put me close back in the day, but I'll likely be getting an RTX 3060Ti once those finally become available. Been in the queue on EVGA's site since 12/1 for it - still no notify sent :-(. Sooner I can get one, the sooner I can sell my 1080. Once the newer RTX cards are no longer supply constrained, the 2nd hand market for old cards like mine will have to crumble. It's crazy how much I could get for my 1080 right now lol.

darksky1243d ago

Still can't achieve 4K 60fps is most of the games lol. I'm staying at 1440P 165Hz for another 3 gens it looks like.

anubusgold1241d ago

Yep i just bought 7 months ago a 1440P 165hrz monitor Its IPS, It has HDR 10 it has a 1ms response time thats all i need my games look great and they dont run like crap like 4k. You can do all the tricks you want to get a fake 4k but you take too much of a frame rate hit that i dont want.

Espangerish1243d ago

As an owner of an OC 2080ti this confirms what I already suspected. There isnt enough of a performance boost to justify upgrading to a 3080 and the 3090 is way too expensive for what it delivers in gaming.

Conclusion, wait for the 3080ti.

Psychotica1243d ago

Yeah I think if I had your card I would wait too. I am trying to upgrade from a 1080Ti so a 3080Ti will be worth it if I can ever get one when it comes out.

jonivtec1243d ago

Im playing at 3840x1600....ultrawide monitor...i do think its a perfect resolution....require less power than 4k...still nice detailed image...and once you try 21x9....you wont go back;)

annoyedgamer1243d ago

I have that but it can cause headaches if the motion is jerky.

shinoff218313d ago

They gotta do better on the premium side for sure. Where are any of those jrpgs from the ps1 Era. Come on Sony.

jznrpg13d ago

Most of the Sony JRPGS have been released. Square has a ton that could be ported over but they would need Squares involvement.

VenomUK13d ago

Crime Boss! I know it hasn't reviewed well but I love the eighties action movie vibe of the trailer but didn't want to risk any money on it so this is a great way for me to play it.

Exvalos13d ago

I don't know why Sony is not getting some of the legendary ps1 games from square like parasite eve, xenogears, brave fencer musashi

outsider162413d ago

Looking at this list, i gotta ask what is even the point of premium?

raWfodog13d ago

I'm good with just my PS+ Essential

GamerRN13d ago

I have premium, and I'm also wondering why I have it

Xeofate13d ago (Edited 13d ago )

I think there are a ton of good games on Premium, and don't sleep on the movie collection if you like 90's and 2000's movies, the selection is stacked with classics and gets updated pretty regularly.

Abnor_Mal13d ago

G-Police is a game I have fond memories of and will definitely download to replay. I remember controlling your helicopter was a bit difficult and would make my hand cramp having to press all the shoulder buttons to go up and down and I think yaw left and right.

The next game they should add to Classics is Colony Wars, and I wouldn’t mind replaying Nightmare Creatures. I’d also like to replay Black, PSI Ope: The Mindgate Conspiracy.

Redgrave13d ago

Nightmare Creatures, Deathtrap Dungeon, Urban Chaos

TheColbertinator13d ago

Colony Wars, G-Police, Black and PsiOps were all amazing games. Such creative games from a golden age.

DefenderOfDoom212d ago

I would love to play Black again on a higher difficult setting . Black was so fun to play!

MrBaskerville13d ago

G-Police is nice. But might be among the hardest games I've ever played.

Bathyj13d ago

G Police.
I almost want to upgrade for that.

But let's face it, there's no way the game has held up.

MrBaskerville13d ago (Edited 13d ago )

You can just buy it, you don't need premium.

And it's still good, but there's a couple of early missions that are extremely tough. But they don't really make games like this anymore.

DarXyde13d ago

2Xtreme was the first game I ever bought for PS Plus (I still have the PS1 version somewhere).

Game is awful, but it's stupid fun. Like Thrasher: Skate and Destroy.

Man.... Premium has been a massive letdown but this is the only month they don't have a single thing for me. Oh well. I've gotten my money's worth so far and still need to finish up Rebirth and Rise of the Ronin then I'll hop back in to Relink and Helldivers after that.

hiroyukisanada13d ago

I should clarify that I was referring to the Classics catalog, in particular. Only 1 PS1 game I've loved is the Legend of Dragoon and the Tekken/Soul Caliburs on PSP

Petebloodyonion13d ago

RDR2 is a win for Sony and Crime boss is a good fit to help promote a struggling game
but we're far from what was removed this month (including Horizon Zero Dawn)
https://www.pushsquare.com/...

crazyCoconuts13d ago

Yeah I was hoping burning shores would have been added now that it's a year old vs. the base game being removed.
I wouldn't be surprised if both MS and PS continue to either walk back the quality of games in the sub services or increase the price, since it's now clearer to them how cannibalistic these services are

isarai13d ago

The game deserves to struggle, it's garbage

Petebloodyonion13d ago

Indeed it's bad but it does offer incredible Hollywood star power so for free it might draw a crowd while giving a boost to this game.
Just remember Fallout 76 was the biggest turd and yet there are now tons of ppl playing it.

shinoff218313d ago

When I seen video on this game I thought Holy sht this is gonna be awesome. Then the footage continued and I seen what type of game it was going for. Was so disappointed. Would've loved a gta style game not from Rockstar,like we had back in the day some studios trying. I'm all about being different but a little gta clone idea been cool with.

Yui_Suzumiya12d ago (Edited 12d ago )

To be fair, I'd play Crime Boss before GTA any day. I mean I have no interest in either but just for the celebs I'd pick Crime Boss, lol

JL293013d ago

How is a 6 year old game a win for anything? Anyone who cares has already played it.

Petebloodyonion13d ago

Simply because ppl do play it!
As much as I don't like it GTA V always managed a boost of ppl when it was offered on Game Pass or PS+.
NOW RDR 2 was never offered on a subscription service.
Again the point isn't about will hardcore gamers play the game because we already played it. it's about having a huge star power game never offered on service that will make casual ppl subscribe to it.

MrBaskerville13d ago

You are aware that new people are born every day? All the 5 year olds probably didn't play it when it released.

But I guess you played every game ever released, which is quite impressive.

JL293012d ago Show
seanpitt2313d ago

A 6 years old game is a win? Yes it's a masterpiece but I am sure most of hardcore gamers have already played it! I doubt it would be shifting ps plus extra subs if there was a native ps5 version or 60fps option then maybe

Cyberpunk 2077 Director On 95% Positive Steam Rating: "Never Thought I'd See It"

Cyberpunk 2077 has come a long way from being one of the worst games on the planet to being one of the best ones.

DustMan13d ago

I shelved it after a few hours in game at launch, glad I didn't refund it. One of the few games I've actually completed in the last year, and after finishing the campaigns I wanted to just jump back in from the start. They pulled a No Mans Sky and finished one of the best FPS in the last few years.
