But according to Sony Interactive Entertainment president Jim Ryan, Sony isn't aware of any customer concerns about the limited storage.Speaking to The Telegraph, Ryan was asked about whether Sony regarded the limited space on the PS5 currently as a problem, to which the CEO explained that the company hadn't yet noticed an outcry from customers."We're not hearing that," Ryan explained. "We'll obviously watch what happens as people unbox their PlayStations and start to use them. We think we'll be okay. We obviously are able to monitor hard drive usage on the PS4 microscopically and everything that we saw there indicates that we should be fine."Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

If you're a longtime PS4 user playing on your fancy new PS5, you might've noticed that Sony changed up the way that Trophies are documented on the console. In addition to saving a screenshot, the PS5 will now save a clip of the exact moment you earned a Trophy. This new functionality can be great for those who want to ensure that their Trophy hunting accomplishments are recorded.But as you can imagine, these video files will add up over time, resulting in a packed media folder filled with videos of you earning all sorts of Trophies--even the minor ones that don't require much effort. While it is nice to record these moments, it's not especially conducive to ensuring you've got plenty of space to store new games.It's best to disable this feature outright to save on storage space. From your PS5 home screen, go to Settings > Captures and Broadcasts > Trophies, and then disable Save Trophy Videos. You can also disable Save Trophy Screenshots while you're at itContinue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

Director Wes Craven and writer Kevin Williamson's Scream was one of the biggest horror movies of the 1990s, and it spawned 3 sequels. After a decade away, the series is set to return in 2022. Production on the fifth movie has now wrapped and the title has been confirmed.While the first three sequels were given simple numerical titles, this latest movie will once again be named Scream. While this does seem a bit confusing, given the movie is a sequel with many of the original cast returning, it follows the pattern set by 2018's hugely popular sequel/reboot Halloween, as well as the upcoming Candyman.The news was confirmed on twitter by Williamson, where he paid tribute to Craven, who died in 2015. He also praised new directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, as well as returning cast members Neve Campbell, Courtney Cox, David Arquette, and Marley Shelton. Check his tweets out in the thread below:Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

The upcoming Monster Hunter movie has gotten a new trailer in advance of its upcoming December 30 release in the United States. The latest trailer is from the international market, as the movie releases in China on December 4. This one ups the action by showcasing a number of massive and fierce monsters, and a strange visual gag about weak points. The trailer also showcases a tongue-in-cheek tone--in one moment, having the get-pumped line "Let's do this," land with a total thud--perhaps suggesting the film will both embrace and tweak action-movie conventions.Despite these new details, all but the broadest of strokes concerning the film's plot are still relatively hazy--not totally surprising for any video game adaptation that already has a built-in audience that knows what to expect.Continue Reading at GameSpotInfo from Gamespot.com

For many families in the US, it simply just isn't the holidays without the animated Peanuts cartoons playing on TV during Thanksgiving and Christmas--even if it's just in the background while you bliss out on tryptophan.

Well, no longer: Another deal has been reached that would allow ABC to reclaim traditional TV broadcast rights for special airings of A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving and A Charlie Brown Christmas in the coming weeks, according to Deadline.However, wrapped up in all this friction is another reason to be thankful for Charlie Brown: Apple TV+ reached a deal for the property so it could bring about new original series and specials exploring the iconic universe and its many popular characters. WildBrain, the animation studio now behind Peanuts, is reportedly working on a second season of Snoopy in Space, and new holiday specials celebrating Mother's Day, Earth Day, and New Year's Eve.
