Dang. I checked yesterday and no discount provided. Do this happen in My Store only.? Other region do they provide discount to all?

First, are you non-PS plus user?

Existing user only benefit from upgrading at 30% discount (Essential to Extra or Extra to Deluxe)

If you are existing user but wanna add extra year on you existing tier, no discount.

Sorry, dumb question: Is PSN PS Plus EXTRA worth it?
*
Worth if you play those game library inside
Last time pricing was RM269 really good cause simply finish 2 games = ROI already.

But on and off those first party games will included inside such as Last of Us Part 1 recently.

U just have to endure day 1 purchase for those new game saja

Good Afternoon All,

Im a new user on PS5 Slim Digital, put the unit vertically to save space.

I encountered this overheat issue twice recently.

The flow is like this.
I usually play around 2 hours of Diablo 4 HoV gameplay, and then run AstroBot for my daughter to play. Then the message will pop up after few minutes playing AstroBot.

When I restart the PS5 and ran AstroBot again; the message no longer pop up. But when continue to play for like 20-30 minutes, PS5 will just force shut down by itself.

this happened in both condition:
1. Afternoon day time with or without aircond
2. Night time mostly fine with aircond - but happened once without aircond

in between, i put a small fan to help the PS5 ventilation by blowing it from the front; but still the overheat message popped up.

any lights to solve this issue?

How long you bought your PS5 slim ?

Try to place horizontally and test again ?

Previously got one guy claim that vertical long term will dmg the PS5 because of the liquid metal won't cover whole chip surface
But many PS Fan bomb him later XD

hmm... same thing here that I did remove the panels and try to check for dust but it is pretty much clean.

maybe I try to put it horizontally, but my current desk setup not optimized for that.

never had any issue with my phat PS4.
bought it home in end May 2024.

yea, maybe try to place it horizontally and give it a try; since you're the second person quoted this.

again, current desk setup is not opitimized for that, well... lets see.
don't have any pics to show that, but here's my setup; whereby PS5 is behind the vertical monitor:

Actually i also placed like that, i putting my PS5 phat behind my LG OLED TV (which i guess the heat from TV will pass behind also)

But so far have no issue and i always horizontal placement since day 1 (bought Feb 2023)

just called Sony Centre LalaPort:
L2-12A, Level 2, Mitsui Shopping Park LaLaport Bukit Bintang, 2, Jln Hang Tuah, Kuala Lumpur City Centre, 55100 Kuala Lumpur, Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur

0327049216

they said its the overheating on PS5 is a common issue, be it OG or slim version.

checked the estimated needed time, they said around 1-2 weeks; but now year end is considered peak.

so, better to send in early Jan 2025.

Game price increase. Controller price increase. PSN subscription increase.

It'll be a time to quit gaming and just watch people game on YouTube instead.

old timers would be a good time to retire anytime soon, or just switch physical copy instead of rely on digital copy.

Maybe handheld is a good idea. Becoming very powerful now. Can bring everywhere too

Yea, basically all my time spent on handheld these days - Steam Deck & Ally X

My PS5 really eating dust sweat.gif
And Sony very troublesome cause official remote play for PS5 games die die need dualsense
So even i installed Remote Play (windows) into Ally X, i also cannot use the native controller to play :\

* At this point, we need 3rd parties app

Very lazy to see PS5 games already (whether exclusive or multi platform) as the game launch price really push me away XD

Then maybe 1~2 months later, can see used zone with 50% off
But by that time maybe no more hype d

I got active in playing PS5 games ever since I bought my first PS5 Pro back in Nov 2024. Before this was on PS4 Pro since 2017.

I only buy games that are super discounted. Cannot afford to buy newly released games that cost about RM250++  sweat.gif

First game I played was Demons Souls and took me 5 months to play until NG+3 using Knight build.
now I got crazy playing Battlefield 2042 online with CrossPlay function OFF (don't want to play against PC players, they got the advantage of pin point accuracy using kbm), play using custom servers in Portal mode. Almost every night play LEL.

i need to move on with BF2042 and perhaps move to Far Cry 6 next.

My physical disc PS5 only bought 3 launch - FF16, FF7 Rebirth, Granblue Fantasy Relink.

Other than that basically PS+ catalogue titles (Sub 3 years RM807 straight since 2023).
