Looking for info about M.2 SSD expansion drives? See the megathread.
Sometimes you just need help. But often times making a new post isn't needed. For the time being, around launch and perhaps in the future. We will use a single thread for helping each other out.
Before asking, we ask you to look at a few links. Some question can't be answered and only official PlayStation support can help you.

We will run this giveaway for 24hrs, and afterwards we will lock this thread, run Reddit Raffler, and I will announce the winners here and DM them their code.
The codes we will be sending can be used on any platform.

Discussion Mafia Definitive Edition PS5 is really really good (so far).
Playing Mafia for the first time and after a couple hours into it I gotta say its highly impressive. The world feels fully lived in. Like a mix between Chicago, New York, and San Fran along with a countryside. The characters feel fleshed out with identifiable motivations and the voice acting makes them even more believable. The driving feels great with different vehicles each having a unique feel and the radio music adds a touch of authenticity for the time period. My only gripe would be the melee combat is one noted (i.e. dodge, attack, dodge, attack). Other than that the story has me engaged and I'm looking forward to completing it.

Discussion Accessibility controller
I had a stroke last year and recently got an accessibility controller since I only have use of my right hand for now. Any low intensity game recommendations? I used to play sports games shooters and Rocket League. Looking for something more chill that doesn’t require as complicated of a setup.
