Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
Woah ... this came out of nowhere !!
Nice. Good incentive to replay them again.

So 4K/60 fps and ray-tracing for the native PS5 and Xbox Series X versions of two old Dark Pictures Anthology games but The Quarry, from the same developer, is stuck at 30 fps on the same consoles despite looking no better than these older games?

doesnt look like it as the PS4 version is the one on plus, the PS5&PS5 version says
That is Little Hope PS Plus Extra version...The PS Plus essential monthly games version of Man of Medan that we have in library will not upgrade to the PS5 versionYes, I checked myself:
I wish they would be clear about what "Raytracing" means here, because I can't tell. Shadows? reflections? AO? what is it...I know the PC version of House of Ashes had RT reflections but it's not evident on console despite it still touting "Raytracing" on the store..

what are you on about? perhaps look into it a little better before you try to refute something...it says "free" on the store but its just a TRIAL..I literally downloaded the game from my library and found no way of accessing the PS5 version
Little nightmare doesn't seem live on store at this moment.
There are separate PS4 and PS4/PS5 editions meaning you own the game and get a free update to the cross-gen version but they havent done that for the PS Plus essential catalog version. at least not yet.

The only version I own is the PS+ version.
Did you try 'purchasing' the free PS5 edition?

Nah man, just checked and it's there.
You can also get the Curator's cut for free (add-on)

checked on my PS5 and it shows download for the trials of the PS5 versions but a price for the full game, I only have them from PS+ so looks like no free upgrade unless this is a mistake (like Shantae and the Pirate's Curse just released on PS5 without an upgrade option but Wayforward has said on Twitter that is a mistake and it should be a free upgrade)

I shit you not. I played the first 3 biomes in Returnal before I realized you can run. I always seem to forget to check for a run, so I went into options and enabled it to 'always on.'

I think Nintendo did it first with Super Mario 3d World on Switch.

what a nightmare trying to navigate the PS5 store UI to try to get the PS5 version of this game. I am baffled that they haven't fixed that dumpster fire navigation / version control mess.

At one point it seemed the PS+ versions would get updated around 6 months after the paid version did. But ever since the rumors of PS+ and Now merging got strong (now merged), it seems the PS+ versions are cut out of updates altogether. As of last week anyway, there were still no free upgrades for PS+ versions of Silent Hill or Uncharted. Sucks if I'm being honest.

Sony really messed this crap up. It’s terrible how they did it

There was supposed to be an update for the PC versions of Man of Medan and Little Hope yesterday which added RT, I believe, but there was an issue with it apparently deleting/resetting save files so the update was rolled back for the time being. At least that is what I read on the Steam forum.

Sony did not account for cross gen being this fucking long.

Well, guess what? They have made it free on PS5.
I've downloaded the trials and played thru them yesterday. Today when I hovered above the game tiles, there was an option to the right saying (included), so I clicked on it and it took me to the screen where you choose your version. (PS5 or PS4), naturally as I had downloaded the trial version, the PS5 version had a "play" button, so I pressed it, and to my surprise, both are the full games. Respect

Yep, can confirm, I can get PS5 version (not trial) for both.

I did it from the app and they both were labeled as trials but were the full versions. Once you select the trial it will add the game to your library and then you can select it and choose either the PS4 or PS5 version.

I'm surprised nobody answered yet, but if you haven't yet found out yeah they are stand alone stories.

These versions have higher Uncanny Valley effects. Very impressive!

Anyone want to play through the shared story for the trophy on PS5 Man of Medan? Can’t believe they didn’t at least add matchmaking or get rid of that trophy altogether.
If you’re up for it, just PM me on PSN, name is Weapon_X.

Can you uncap the modes in a vrr container?

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Sweet. House of Ashes played great (I played them all three in a row last year), and it played way better than the first two on Series X.
Might have to replay them yet again.
