Traded in the PS4 a couple of times as I was never playing it.Changed my mind a few times. 

Got it again last week and Red Dead Redemption 2 has been a godsend during this coronavirus outbreak. Eats up the hours LOL 
Wings? They're only the band The Beatles could have been.

Super Smash Brothers for the Switch came out today.

Such a good game it's crazy.

2 horse race between either that or RDR2 collecting all the gongs next year.

Young lad has a PS4 and has the heart set on a wireless keyboard and mouse. I didnt even think you could use these with a console like this but sure you learn something new everyday.

Just make him aware some games don't allow you to use s keyboard and mouse online and will ban you if caught. Rainbow 6 is an example. 

Anyone played rdr2? Haven't got the time myself but would be interested in buying.

He'll be looking for a mechanical one as the response time is better. I would assume wired is better than wireless but in fairness i didn't even realise that you would use them on the ps4.
 
Careful though it's a slippery slope from this to the being a PC gamer and spending €€€€s on a gaming set up. Cry
Yeah I did a small bit of reading up and its all about 8 button response and no ghosting. Ordered one with his seal of approval on Amazon. Its more in the €€  as opposed to the €€€€ bracket but from reviews a decent starter option. If it gets to the €€€€ stage, hes on his own..

Can you not just use any normal wireless keyboard? They connect with via wireless USB so i don't think you need a specific type. Open to correction though.

Pre ordered it. Getting bored of fortnite now  too so good timing.  60 hours of gameplay just to complete it. 

The original is prob still my favourite game 

Played it for a half hour earlier,looks fantastic. Probably be next week before I get to play it properly 

Its expected to break all records for opening day sales for any entertainment product.

I played the first mission myself when it went live last night, had to stop myself for playing longer. A friend of mine is a couple of hours in and says it’s brilliant

Was reading about this game during the week - c. 1,600 people have been working on it for the last seven years! Crazy.

Not a good working environment either going by some of the articles recently.
