Playstation The Official Playstation 5 Thread

[Limonade]

I'm sure it will too, but I only own three digital games on PS4 compared to over 20 games on disc for the system.

I think the future is that there will be those that PS5 will be their first system and they're completely fine with an all-digital console, regardless of its drawbacks and not physically owning the media.

If the older generations wants to continue to play their PS4 games with the new console, that's probably going to be the new "optional" way of continuing that tradition. Otherwise, they can say, "just don't throw your ps4 away..." and buy the strictly digital version, if the cost is too much for consumers.

It's sort of this hybrid Nintendo and Xbox approach. The risk though is that more people will buy the All-Digital version and Sony will be sitting on some expensive ultra blu-ray players and will take a loss because of it... or they'll leave money on the table because all the disc versions are out and all that's left are the AD versions... and at that point--will you end up buying the PS5 all digital?

I really hope they bring it out in black cause even though the white looks great...it'll stick out like a sore thumb in my media section lol. And I think the white brings out its vertical flaws way to much.

Looks weird vertical.

Because it looks like a console from the 2100s. I like it.

 

[psylockolussus]

I'll go for the console with the disc drive since it'll be backwards compatible with PS4 and I'm old school like that, but looking at the list of games, I'll definitely be getting Spider-Man: Miles Morales.

But I do have to roll my eyes at yet another remastered GTA V. Seriously, Rockstar, it's been 7 years. Time to stop living in the past.

They should be releasing GTA IV for the ps4 and announce GTA VI.

 

[psylockolussus]

I liked the conference format and hope all future conferences follow suit. I’m not too keen on the console’s look but I guess I just like a sleek, flat, stackable, black box. Man of simple tastes (on this front at least).

Yeah I wanted a slick, like super slim and smaller than the width size of Ps4 as it would save more space in my tiny roo.. This one looks physically bigger and heavier to carry.

I would have welcomed a GTA Collection for PS4 that included GTA III, Vice City, San Andreas, Liberty City and Vice City Stories, GTA IV, Lost and Damned and Ballad of Gay Tony. It would probably make more money than yet another release of GTA V.

Yup. I don't think people can even access Gta iv through ps4 now?. While GTA V is being released for a third ps console.

 

[MagnarTheGreat]

Returnal is another I will keep an eye on.

 

[psylockolussus]

The square eniX Project game looks interesting... but I got a see you in 3 years vibes from it.

It’s Square Enix. Comes with the territory at this point lol

Yeah plusProject Asomething sounds like a working title that would be changed later on.

I already put aside a separate savings for the PS5. Got bout 800 saved up so I’m good depending on what the price will end up being so I just need this damn thing to come out. First game definitely Miles Morales the sequel/Spinoff was the main reason I wanted to get the PS5 anyway. Also God of War Sequel whenever they announce it.

I wonder if PS5 games are goingto look good as the ray traced yt videos? The YouTube channel also has videos of GTA V ray tracing mods andthey all look great.

Edit: i removed the Ac unityvideo as it might be inappropriate in this site.

You know they will release a slim version at some point.

Yeah but I plan to get the first ps5 by next year. And i don't plan tobuy another til psiX.

In a few years the current hardware will probably be scaled down for a slim version, but right now this is probably as small as they could get it without compromising the integrity of the hardware. With launch versions of consoles the bigger it is the better/safer it is. I just hope part of its size is due to space between the components, and plenty of heat sinks and fans. I'm so sick of Sony's piss poor heat management.

 

[Black Narcissus]

You take the top and bottom of the xbox 360 and sandwich a ps4 at a slight angle.

 

[Teelie]

Saw a lot of great games in that line up. New Spider-Man, Horizon, Stray and Bugsnax looked interesting and Project Athia as well as Returnal. The system looks good but I agree, a white system will stick out in the all-black entertainment center I have. If they don't have a black edition I might have to find a safe way to spray paint it myself.

 

[Joe Von Zombie]

The console itself looks ****ing stupid but I'll still get one because unlike Xbox, this will have good exclusives on it.

 

[spiderman2]

Just finished watching this about a hour ago. Posting a few thoughts and then going to read what ever one else has said to do. First i hate sony right now just take my money now. The amount of good games shown was amazing. So had my money like 5 minutes in.

I was not expecting to get like a spiderman spin off game and on day 1. Interesting we are getting that before ratchet and clank and now with getting a new ratchet and clank and a spiderman spin off i wonder how that effects the making on the spiderman sequel. Like i know they have more then 1 team but not 3 teams. So like who is working on spiderman sequel if a spiderman sequel and ratchet is being worked on? Like spiderman spin of is 2020. So are we then going to get ratchet and clank in 2021 and then spiderman 2 in 2022?

Project Athia looks interesting need to see more. Returnal looks ok Was not expecting to see a sackboy game. Kena i want to see more loved the music it had. Will be interesting to see more nba 2k21 and see how much better graphics have gotten this gen has last gen its graphics jump was crazy. Surprised to see GTA 5 again lol. Ghost wire tokyo i was interested in at first but now i am not i just cant get into first person games. To bad we didn't see batman but i have kind of given up ever seeing it lol. HZD forbidden west looks amazing. Love that we can now swim under water to find things. I wonder if we will get more water creatures to fight like sharks or something. Surprised its not a launch game and had no date but with ever thing else i can get over it.

Over all 9.5/10. Glade we got to see the systems so people don't make such a big deal about it. I wonder with getting a digital and not digital systems what the cost will be. Maybe digital one will be 400 and the other 500. Was not expecting them to do that. Thought different size of SSD was much more likely. Oh one last thing going back to ratchet and clank so glade its a completely new game and not like the 2016 game and being able to like jump between planets/dimensions looks so amazing. That i think is a big ssd thing. Oh also not surprised about demon sols.

 

[killface]

was already getting this because of Ghost of Tsushima. excited for the new Gran Tursimo and Spider-Man game.

I just hope that they'll also release a black version of the console

I also like when a console looks tastefully simple, practical. PS2 and PS4 designs (even PS3) were optimal for me. All these fancy shapes and wings - screw that.

 

[Marvolo]

I'm sure theyll release a black version at some point. The PS4 and PS3 and Xbox 360 and Xbox One have all gotten a bunch of different colors and themes versions. It's the cheapest and easiest way for Sony and Microsoft to reinvigorate console sale numbers. So we can probably expect a black version sometime next year. Maybe the first half of the year if public demand for a black version is high enough.

 

[Slick]

Black or white it don’t matter to me I just want it lol.

 

[Silvermoth]

Well I’m sold. It looks fantastic. Only thing I’m worried about is the price. I really want one with a disc drive.

loved the look of stray!

 

[spiderman2]

Soul strom, Spiderman, ratchet and clank, horizon forbidden west, Kena Bridge of spirits i am getting all of those for sure. That is 5 games may also get project Athia need to see more but it looked cool
