I know Bestbuy is doing a huge sale as usual. I was shocked when I picked up my PS5 and Ghost of Tsushima was still $60.
Still bought it though, and loving every minute of it.

Maybe sign they could go for Spider-Man remastered approach. Paid remaster, but with more significant changes with better lighting and other improvement beyond just fps unlock
Spider-Man is a PS5 title that you can only buy and play on PS5 with Miles game. It's not a PS4 game. If OG Spider-Man could be played at 60 fps, then it could count.
Otherwise, yeah, GoW and Infamous (the ones I tried so far) feel really good. Got Killzone and Days Gone loaded already as well.
Edit: Will grab and play through GoT next after I buy it BF time. It's still at $40, but it is what it is.
I was happy to see a bunch of stuff is going to be like a whole new world on PS5. Very excited to try a bunch of stuff
Yeah definitely, I'm looking forward to playing it on my PS5 when I get it!
There must be a reason Sony haven't bothered, the games just too popular to not have done something. Makes me wonder if PlayStation are about to announce a proper (paid for) re-master of Bloodborne and that's why they've not bothered to give it a free 60fps patch, or maybe there's some issues with From Software patching it? I know this game was co-developed by Japan Studio but who knows how much knowledge they have of the game code to patch it easily, if the contract even allows Sony to by-pass From Software when it comes to releasing updates.
I legit almost had a full on 5-year-old rage attack at my work computer when I first read Bloodborne was once again the same shit.
I mean it's sort of ridiculous to think that developers will drop whatever other projects they have to update games that came out years ago, with no promise update them for consoles that weren't even announced at the time.
Updates to games are icing on the cake but we shouldn't expect developers to be compelled to update their games.
Genshin impact is like unstable 15-20 fps on ps4
the ps5 version saved that game.
Man the GoT update makes me wish I had waited to beat the game. I still have ~5-10 hours of content left if I go for the platinum though.
Was going through some of my backlog and it looks like Nier Automata and Shenmue III are basically a locked 60 now. At least from the brief testing I did.
Indeed.
I'm still holding out hope for a patch, though. Maybe after DeS Bluepoint could do a "quick" remaster as an interim project? Not anything resembling a sophisticated remake, but simply boosting framerate to 60 with proper framepacing and boosting resolution.
Who said anything about dropping development of ongoing projects? What I was getting at by noting the engine already supports 60 fps and 4KCB is that breaking the 1080p cap in performance mode should be a fairly straightforward job. And if that's the case, I don't think it's unreasonable to expect a patch like that.
Now, I'm not a developer, so I don't know the reality of what this would take. If it really meant halting overall development of Ragnarok, then no, I'm not expecting that. But I don't think a performance-oriented patch as I'm describing would require that kind of effort.
I'm curious if you really think performance patches require this type of studio-wide development-altering manpower. Looking at all the other games that are getting patched on PS5 and X/S, the landscape doesn't really suggest this is what it takes.
Neither of us are developers. I think the issue is that the game requires play testing if it's going to get patched, outside of whatever work needs to happen to the content itself. Given WFH constraints I imagine that's especially difficult right now.
I also think that it's presumptive of consumers to expect extra functionality enabled by the developers, years later. God of War shipped as an amazing product both technically and artistically - they spared no effort. They also respected consumers enough to avoid micro transactions and DLC. If you purchased the game, you got all of the content. With that in mind I think it's unfounded to expect developers to go back and revisit old games that were left in great shape and that run perfectly in backwards compatible mode.
Sorry I'm bad at this stuff. If I put the game in performance mode it doesn't default to 60 FPS on all games or developers have to release a patch to uncap it? I wanted to do my platinum run on TLoUP2 on performance mode but if there is still a 30 cap I'll just do it in Fidelity mode or wait?
Presumption and expectation aside, you make a good point about testing. I agree that's going to be a necessary component and very likely to be non-trivial.
From a purely technical standpoint, it would be interesting to see the results of setting performance mode on PS5 to 4KCB without any further tweaking. I'd be really curious if performance would remain consistently near 60 fps and if any visual errors or other glitches would occur.

There's 4 categories:
Games that run as is at an unlocked frame rate: Until Dawn, Dreams
Games that run at fixed frame rate but have an option to unlock it in the settings: Medieval, Infamous
Games that have a separate performance mode that runs at lower fidelity but unlocked frame rate: God of War
Games that got a specific PS5 upgrade patch to run at 60fps: Ghosts and Days Gone
Isn't GOW just running in BC mode? They didn't do any work to it. The game auto goes to 60FPS on performance mode because it was uncapped and I think that's the reason it's only 1080p because that was the resolution for the performance mode IIRC.
how is this? i barely remember the original, but seems like it could be fun in 60 fps
Why not Bloodborne at this point? Is there something more going on, like maybe they're making a full next gen remaster? It's just so baffling and makes no sense.
Does it have options like cinematic mode and performance mode? Or automatic 60fps?

It's 60fps in the resolution mode too.
Not sure, I think there's a demo.
Digital Foundry made a video on PS4 games running at 60 last week. BC on PS5 is great despite them not hyping it up or bringing much light to it.

God of War hasn't been touched, it's just the 1080p performance running at locked 60fps now (it was 40-50 on Pro). Game still has good IQ in that mode, in fact for anyone that is still running a 1080p I'd just play it as is instead of holding out for an enhancement patch.
Yeah, pretty much as I thought.
I think that needs to be emphasized to people saying it's disappointing etc. The game hasn't been touched for the PS5.
