Wow, this is awful. Some people reported that these ads are also very petty and not necessarily related to the game, like apparently Elden Ring shows an ad for a licensed mousepad when you hover over the game now...

Edit: Playstation Product Manager says this is actually a new bug. I really doubt it but they do seem to be "fixing it".

Sweet, just in time for the pro. Fingers crossed the next revision doesn't play games at all, just $1000 to pipe Morbius trailers to my TV. It's all I ever wanted.

Sony will just flash their 30th anniversary skin again and people will forget and drool all over again.

Isn't it rad that Sony designed the ps5 to have easily replaceable side panels and then for some reason only releases the really cool panels as part of a full console?

There will probably be loads of third-party panels just because of that lol, just need some spray paint for the the glossy middle part or something for the finishing touch

I don't know if you were part of the memers who got Morbius re-released but if so hats off because back then my in-laws were so excited to show me this movie they discovered on Netflix.

Just so well done
