Digital Foundry confirms ‘VRR stutter’ reports on PS5 and PS5 Pro.

The framerate counters over at Digital Foundry looked into reports of noticeable stutters every eight seconds for games like Elden Ring and Spider-Man Remastered while using variable refresh rate, testing 19 games with a number of displays and comparing to Xbox versions where available.

Some games they tested (Gran Turismo 7, God of War Ragnarok) didn’t have the problem, and while it’s unclear why it is happening, it does seem to be PS5-specific, and sometimes takes 20 minutes or more to show up.

Another Nintendo PlayStation prototype has emerged.

Only 200 prototypes of the Nintendo PlayStation were ever made, and most were destroyed when the partnership fell through. What was believed to be the last remaining prototype in existence sold at auction for $360,000 in 2020, but Julian Domanski discovered that former Sony Computer Entertainment CEO Ken Kutaragi has had one stashed away in a closet, as spotted by Time Extension. Don’t expect it to hit the auction block any time soon.

The DadStation Portal.

Sony is just now giving its PlayStation Portal the fancy ad treatment, nearly a year and a half after its launch. Unsurprisingly, it’s aimed at families, by way of a busy dad. That tracks with Sony’s stats showing how the PS5 remote player is used.

An ad push following the beta testing of cloud game streaming is likely another strong indicator that Sony’s single-purpose device has proved successful.

P is for Pals who do stuff together.

Palworld’s crossplay update is coming soon. We don’t know exactly when, as the announcement states it’ll happen sometime late March. But expect to pal around with your friends on any platform within the next two weeks. Also, in celebration of the update, Palworld’s 25 percent off on the PlayStation store and Steam.
