PS5 reveal tomorrow

Choo choo, coming through.

I'm gonna laugh so hard if they do a bunch of tech-speak without any actual numbers.
Anything is possible, but I strongly doubt that. Look back at all of Sony's previous major console unveilings. They're ALL completely epic.

Even the console that eventually ran into problems, which is the PS3, was totally amazing at the beginning.

They've been preparing all this time. I think it's gonna be good. But like I said, anything can happen. Let's wait and see.

How do you figure? What is to keep Microsoft from releasing more information. I doubt Sony are going to negate everything Microsoft have done to this point with whatever they show tomorrow.


Actually Microsoft is doing a scheduled GDC stream on Mixer tomorrow at 11:55 PDT which will include info on xCloud, Gears 5 and Series X.
 
The shadow of Tommy Fisher looms larger each day...😳

(I think PS5 is ~11 tflops tho)

I still don't fully understand why people suddenly switched to having complete faith in him considering he got banned.

In any case, the "warring" hopefully ends tomorrow, and will no doubt restart when we hear rumours of mid Gen updates.
 
Really excited to see what happens here. Expecting great things - perhaps Sony's somewhat alarming silence has actually just been a result of great confidence in their product,
 
Just show me some games. It's not rocket science.
I couldn't agree less.

NVME ssds are transformative. Having an intermediate mechanical disk would ruin the performance benefits: system OS would be sluggy just like it is now, long delays waiting for file operations, etc.

A traditional disk streaming data into fast NVMe would be trans-formative. You don't need to load the entire game into it, only the assets needed at that time or assets needed in the near future. The NVMe (assuming it's fast enough) then has the headroom to feed RAM at ridiculous speed while more data is streaming into the NVMe drive from the traditional / spindle disk. Whether this is pie-in-the-sky stuff I don't know. Maybe the speed of the transfer would not be enough but if you take a 15K speed disk which is around 300MB a second, it seems like it could be doable if we assume no loading and it's constantly streaming.

edit: Please add Clapton to the HYPE train!

But of course so is Reiner, Osiris, etc 😁

No forum is pro ps thts just idiocy ppl say to feel good about their plastic box thts getting an ass whipping. Chk the numbers there's just more Sony fans as per sales so opinions will be skewed in tht way

🤡🤡🤡

Dial it back on calling people clowns.

Everyone in here, have a little bit of perspective please. Gaming is our escape, and we are all blowing off some steam especially with the current global pandemic we are going through.

We should not be insulting each other, or going at each other with personal attacks. If anything, gaming should bring us together on common ground, especially when something can happen to any one of us or our loved ones at any time during this ordeal.

All of this aggression over plastic boxes. Remember, some people don't have it so lucky.

If you want to be around to partake in the discussion for tomorrow's reveal, then I suggest everyone back down on the insults and personal attacks.
 
Is Sony going to give us enough time on the stream to get the bath running before Mark Cerny starts telling us about what's going to make it in the console?
 
Let it begin people of neogaf.
Whether we like it or not there is a war coming. And it will be mostly decided on these few forums lol
Play will rule

The most important things for me for the PS5

1.Games. Exclusive 1st party games. Other exclusive games. And Games made for next gen not held back by the last gen

2.. PS1-PS4 backwards compatibility
3.. Much Faster Loading times and starting up for games.
4. Multiple game suspend and Resume (even when turned off and on, confirmed by xbox)
5. Much Quieter
6. Choice to opt for better FPS than Resolution or focus on 60FPS
7. Faster UI/ OS / Store
 
Ok guys, what is one unannounced wish you have for the PS5?

Full BC?
Display on controller?

Display on controller. Other than some PS4 BC, I really don't care about BC. Doesn't mean I don't want them to do it, just explaining my preference. I don't like playing old games, except if I didn't play them before (barely miss any anyway).
 
Have a funny feeling the memory setup and SSD in PS5 will be what makes PS5 the 'fastest' system compared to Series X.

Series X to take the power crown by +/- 1 TF

Series X: 'Most Powerful'
PS5: 'Most Fastest'

I'd be happy with that.

Taking bets on tflops. Im guessing its 11 tflops. Please for the love of god be better than 16gb ram
Well I also figure PS5 to be around 11-12TF but on the memory side I think they have better bandwidth management like not splitting speeds but the size is probably the same for GDDR6. Maybe they may add DDR4 for system so that games may utilize that full 16GB of GDDR6 operating at same peak bandwidth.
Or they will go with unified system RAM pool just like MS, and only in that case I can see 16+ GB of RAM, maybe 20 or 22 GB but I think they will also implement bandwidth splits if they go this way due to different capacity RAM modules and thus not being able to go full bit bus.
 
Seeing as how they were waiting for MS to shoot first, my gut tells me that such a reactionary response can only mean they have an equal or superior system.

Some ppl here have agendas hence the responses. Ppl call this sonygaf, the other site reset gaf without any backing so the response imo had merit but ight no more clown faces.
 
I'd be surprised if they reveal ALL the PS5 specs like MS has done.

And any specific numbers they don't provide is only because those numbers are lower than what's in the XSX.

Thyll reveal numbers, their timing was a Cocky response and confidence. Thy just wont give a price.

I think they'll give some numbers. But any that they don't, is no coincidence. They'll be lower. We just won't know exactly how much lower.
 
People might get angry at this but I hope tomorrow they talk more about what games coming more than PS5's specs.

If thy talk about psvr2 which thy won't and legacy bs from the beginning (which thy might) it would still be good in my book even though idc for all tht bc stuff.
 
Yeah but these are still slower and their speeds are inconsistent. PS5 need to have full proprietary solution to ensure the same speed just like MS had done.

Not sure about the on on the right, and I think they'll work differently than Xbox, meaning they'll need to offload prior to starting the game on the main internal for full speed, with it locking like 150-200GB for temporary usage. Then it'll not matter a lot. They can still use same card speeds of Xbox, but that'll be very slow compared to the internal one.

Schreier says this has been Sony's plan for some time now. So I wouldn't read too much into that stuff, honestly. It's like how people were thinking "Sony is doomed" cause they haven't given any indication as to when they were going to reveal more information, or that "Sony is scared" because they know MS has the more powerful box.

What I will say, is that Sony seems to have confidence in their product the same way MS has confidence in Series X. One will obviously be more powerful, but both consoles will be close and have aces up their sleeve.
