I currently have a holiday booked (UK one) for a few weeks, but a local lockdown in my area seems likely and, unlike the England local lockdowns, the Welsh ones don't allow you to travel out of the area.

I wonder if the PS Store will hide the PS4 versions of free upgrade games on the PS5 (although you would still be able to buy via the website).

In the UK there's quite a lot of competition for physical games. Most retailers here sell for less, probably around 20% or so cheaper in most cases.

Surely the value gets better the longer you leave it?

@Dcubed but they literally avoid answering the question about future games in that tweet.

They did a remake of Fable, although the remake is pretty dated now.

By the time the currently announced games are released, it will be nearing the end of the generation anyway. By that point Game Pass will have gone from the "lose money to gain initial subscribers phrase" and will into the "finding any little extra way to nickel and dime customers" stage.

https://bethesda.net/en/article/1iLtcvwY6Nb1GeKADyDUEX/why-microsoft-is-the-perfect-fit Bethesda will still be publishing their games, similar to how Mojang publishes Minecraft. This suggests that they're staying multiplatform, bit obviously they won't say anything about that until sometime after pre orders.

What's interesting is that Bethesda's main games are pretty much anti-Games Pass. They're the kind of games people want to play for a long period, to return to every now and then. They're games to buy, not rent.

I can't see Microsoft buying a company with zero IPs just to Sony have to use someone else for remakes. They're not quite that petty.

Now I'm imagining the next Elder Scrolls having characters talk loudly about the DLCs if you don't buy them. Perhaps Microsoft will take it up another level and just insult the players for not having all the content. Although it is amusing that Microsoft's most interesting game of next year will be on PS5 and not Xbox.

I think the minimum is something stupid like £10. My workplace has it for high value items (mattresses and beds), not for things like pillows.

It's essentially an unsecured loan, even the check will stay on your record for a year.

This method is much, much nicer for scalpers.

Klarna only takes a few minutes to fill in the details, then it will go into a "pending" state. Acceptance speed can vary as it's doing a hard credit check but typically within one day, and you arrange payment details to Klarna from there.
