I bought the ps5 pro which is a beta test for PSSR, so I guess I'm enrolled already?

Holy shit, to think I might get to beta test The Last of Us ReRemaster

You will get to beta test Fairgame$ and you will like it.

The concept of beta testing made sense back in the day, but now regardless if a game as an early access or beta program before launch, the games still launch with bugs and issues.
We need that Nintendo seal of approval

Got in.

Never understood the appeal of being a free betatester, especially for some big company.

I've done it before directly and through a 3rd party agency. Apart from getting access to stuff early or just having your say in steering the way things might turn out, it's the swag (and lots of it, lol).

 

[I Love Rock 'n' Roll]

There's already a beta program Sony and it's called buy a new game. And we pay full price for beta testing!

 

[Shtof]

Remember being in a beta program on PS3, Resistance 2, Uncharted 2 etc.

Somehow, the concept doesn't excite me anymore..

Uncharted 2 beta was pretty lit though.

I hope a mode for selecting PSSR versions is added.

In retrospect, I don't feel that Nintendo's Seal of Quality really meant much.

I thought they already started this with the PS5 Pro.

with base, since we've been getting PS4 games since launch.

 

[Windle Poons]

I think anyone who applied got the congratulations you're in email?

I note it says in the email they sent that 'We look forward to your potential participation and appreciate your understanding' in the Ts & C's

So might still get the thanks but no thanks bollocks off them as I don't play Fortnite or COD on a hourly basis or fit their age bracket despite claiming they don't have one.

I remember back in the PS2 days they sent you the ethernet adaptor, headset and a copy of SOCOM when you joined the beta programme.

Was in the PS2 one for quite a while.

 

[Esppiral]

Didn't they already launched that program with the Playstation 5 Pro?.

It never did, it wasn’t about the quality of the games people just assumed that. It was about the fact it conformed to the standards Nintendo set out so it wouldnt fuck up your system. Nowadays it was replaced by the officially licensed mark on 3rd party peripherals & stuff usually made by hori. Not really used on games anymore.

I thought the regular users were their beta testers. Confusing

Came to post this but of course I was late.

Anyone who buys anything day 1 these days is a beta tester.
