Sacred Symbols+, Episode 137: Celebrating PlayStation 5's First Birthday (Video)

I think I've been pretty lucky with regards to stick drift. I've had a ton of consoles, but I've really only had unsolvable drift on one console. The Switch. I had 3 separate sticks across several switch units experience drift in the family, and for the most part I've fixed them all myself by buying new sticks or new joycons. These were intermittent drift, which means it couldn't be gotten rid of with recalibration. Every other system if I have a little drift I could just recalibrate the stick and the drift would go away. I think there was one off-brand controller where the drift got so bad that I couldn't recalibrate that away, but it was rare. Wow, I'm super far behind on listening to the bonus content.

😂 The part Colin said to Dustin "because you're a fucking dork" Dustin's reaction is awesome 😂, he wants to keep talking and then realized, what did he just say, so he's like, "excuse me" 😂. Man, it's probably not that funny but I think it's really funny, love this trio 👌.

Truly weird.

On the note of specific PS5’s acting weird, I had an issue where the home screen would be totally uncontrollable when coming back in from rest mode but other things, like the quick access bar or in-game controls, would be totally fine. Fortunately, a recent patch fixed it but I dealt with this problem for several months!

I think I agree with you for the most part - when I actually "tried" to get one, it took about 24 hours once i followed a few people on twitter and put my alerts on. That was after 3-4 months of waiting for stock in store

I'll definitely do Ghosts again in the coming years, this time on PS4. =)

Colin Moriarty

I do think the math has to eventually come up in your favor if you're trying enough, but as I said, I would have spent $1,000 at launch to have one if I didn't get a pre-order.

I know it’s technically a PS4 game, but the PS5 version of Ghost of Tsushima loads so damn quickly. Like 1-2 seconds to load into the game from the main menu. The same when fast traveling. Also the way it uses Dualsense is great.

Samuel Mills

I agree and disagree. I agree because the majority of my friends have been able to get one at MSRP. However, there are a few friends that still do not have one and it wasn't for a lack of effort compared to the rest of us. There is still luck of being at the right place, right time of it all.

I truly believe the internet over-exaggerates the scalper situation. Everyone I know that really wanted a next-gen console has one already and didn’t have to pay more than MSRP.

Brandon Soto

LOL.

I love me some Wawa too buddy!! In the Burgh area we don't have many late night options anymore!

I heard a Big Mozz from Sheetz cures COVID! True facts!
