That's how you manually update a game without starting it though. I just did it yesterday for Destiny.

I have a PS beta code also if people want it.  

 

Go ahead and PM me if you want it.

I had fun with the Knockout City beta, but I never went back to it.  Rumbleverse looked fun as well.  Those games seem like too much of a commitment for me at this point.

Pick a game you haven’t played in over a month and isn’t on your front page. Try the same process then report back.

Yeah. "Keep My Games Up To Date" doesn't actually mean that if you aren't playing them regularly it turns out.

Works the same way on the Switch. I prefer the Xbox way of keeping everything up to date regardless.

Me too. The only issue I have is I have so much installed my system seems to be constantly updating titles I never play. Maybe I should start playing games that need lots of updates? Obviously these games are being supported right? I need to play Minion Masters, Smite, and Dungeon Defenders II. Those games seem to update a lot.

I'd be surprised if nintendo doesn't sue them for that.

Robot CHicken did something similar though: 

 

I don't think they got sued.

Yeah robot chicken did it as well.  Though I'm unsure of how prevalent the one with toad helping bank robbers is given its very late night status back then.

It's a parody. It's legal.

It's also highly likely they got assets from Nintendo themselves.

For making people watch an SNL skit? If they do not sue then I WILL!!

The same Robot Chicken that worked with Nintendo on one of their E3 Directs? They haven't sued SNL for any of their previous Mario/Nintendo skits, so why would this one warrant the waste of money on a parody comedy skit?

Somebody should be sued for this.

Why would Nintendo sue over what basically amounts to free advertising for them? Look at that view count on that video. It’s all over everyone’s socials. Viral gold. Tbh I wouldn’t be surprised if Nintendo was actually involved with the skit. I think they have some hugely anticipated animated movie coming out soon? One that’s being produced by Universal Pictures, the same “Universal” in NBC Universal, the parent company of SNL… Everything everywhere is just one giant ad lol.

Anybody have any tips on how to get the Playstation Stars points from 'February PS5 Store Picks' if you've purchased certain games prior to the activity going live? I pre-ordered Dead Space and have The Witcher 3 from way back, and I don't plan on purchasing any of the other games. Is there a way to get Dead Space or the The Witcher 3 to count? Opening them does not seem to satisfy the activity.

No, as I understand it they have to be bought during that month.

Not a deal specific post just a question... does the PS stars program work correctly? I played two games today, Fallen Order and Mortal Kombat 11. I got the 'badges' for those games and for the month, yet not the daily badge for 'hazelnut'. Now on my PS profile it says I missed the challenge and it's expired.

Not usually. The Hazelnut one worked for me but I have never been able to get the fighting ones to register. I still have zero clue what the point of these collectibles is. If you get enough can you redeem them for something?

Up till now I haven’t been paying attention to prices on internal m.2 hard drives. But I’m pretty sure I’m going to need one soon. What would you guys say is a good price for a ps5 compatible drive? Not sure if I want a 1 or 2 tb but I want to know what prices to hold out for

I bought Crucial P5 Plus 2TB PCIe Gen4 3D NAND NVMe M.2 Gaming SSD, up to 6600MB/s - CT2000P5PSSD8 for $149.99 on Amazon in December.  You can get a cheaper brand for less.

 

I'm using PNY XLR8 SSD Cover with Integrated Heatsink Designed to fit PS5™ – (M22110PSVHS-XR-RB) with it.  It's a nicely designed heat sink for PS5.  It was $15 when I bought it.

 

Meanwhile the Xbox 2TB expansion card is $360.
