Why are we entertaining UBI being bought? They just got out of that ownership battle where they now own their company in full. They would not then sell the entire company after all that.

 

[bitbydeath]

if ms buy ubisoft
then it will be the end of ps5
everyone will cancel there pre orders imo

 

[Bo_Hazem]

that would be huge

 

[Imtjnotu]

Are you sure about this? I know that you can't use an external hdd for booting games for obvious reasons but I remember Cerny saying m2 ssd with four priority levels will work as ps5 drive.

Cerny said PS5's games can't be played off an ssd unless they exceed the speeds of the internal drive due to priority levels only have 2 compared to the internals 6.

PS4 games can boot off pretty much any ssd or hdd drive you have currently.

Why?

I‘d understand this mentality if Ubisoft had consistently been producing good games that anyone would actually miss. But they’ve produced lame shit for years. You’re talking like it’s Rockstar, or ND, or CDPR, or even fucking Activision.

 

[BGs]

This makes a little more sense for the PS5 test kit. Just got to figure out what the external unit is for....I guess extra SSD storage for devs?



ETA: I just noticed the PSU in the picture set....It shares the model number with the PSVR power supply (CUH-ZAC1) so I guess that must at least mean the PS5 test kit ships VR ready. What say you BGs !?

I do not understand. It is official that PS5 is compatible with PSVR via free adapter. What was the doubt?

 

[martino]

What do you mean by “exclusive” in this context?

look at ubisoft report :https://www.ubisoft.com/en-US/company/investor_center/annual_report.aspx
do you think all sales done on the different platform will disappear if ubi stop releasing on them ?
the more a platform (whatever the platform is and whatever your personnal appreciation of content is) loose content the less you should be happy with it.

 

[PSX]

I do not understand. It is official that PS5 is compatible with PSVR via free adapter. What was the doubt?

Yes it comes with system, I am assuming included in box?

PSVR Is Backwards Compatible With PS5, But You'll Need A Different Camera

If you are looking forward to playing in PSVR on the next generation, there's one important omission that you'll need to know.

www.gameinformer.com

.

If you want to play PSVR, PS4 titles included, on your new PS5, you're going to need to keep your PS4 camera. You'll also need to use the included PS Camera adaptor, which thankfully comes with the system.

 

[THE:MILKMAN]

I do not understand. It is official that PS5 is compatible with PSVR via free adapter. What was the doubt?

I was more wondering if the inclusion of the PSVR PSU as part of the PS5 test kit indicates a new PSVR2 being deployed to devs already? I'm a little confused as to why a PSU was even photographed here as the FCC is about wireless stuff...!

Incidentally, do you know what the mysterious external box here is?

 

[RaZoR No1]

I do not understand. It is official that PS5 is compatible with PSVR via free adapter. What was the doubt?

Do we know how we will get the free adapter? Is it included in all PS5s?
Afaik the adapter should be just for the PS Eye Cam, because it uses a different kind of connection.

 

[SlimySnake]

I think take 2 and Ubisoft combined maybe. But even then Sony will have Japanese studios.

But if ms wants to go for the kill they need Ubisoft, capcom, square Enix and rockstar

 

[Empire Strikes Back]

U

Another Reddit rumor gets posted on Xbox news pages (xbox dynasty) :

MS is going to buy Ubisoft.

What's going on here?
First Sega, now Ubisoft? Why not both

Ubi is public, isn’t it?

 

[Arian71]

Not to mentioned that PS5's SSD+I/O is as fast as a DDR4 RAM! So PS5 won't be RAM-starved, with data being fed directly to GPU caches, that are intelligently cleanse by cache scrubbers.

Any game full 4K 60 fps yet ?

[SSfox]

Gotta milk that "$120/year" gamepass deal that gives you "free" games according to some smart people.

EDIT: Plus you need Ultimate to play online, unlike PS Now that you can play online included with it independently.

Gamepass is basically renting games, and games that you don't choose yourself either.

What's funny is that some people don't even realize this.

 

[LiquidRex]

3% in cpu, 18% in gpu, and as for the memory bandwidth, keep in mind the ps5 can use 12 or 13GB for graphics at full bandwidth and the xbox only 10GB unless it wants to use lower bandwidth memory.

Not only that but the ps5 has like 2+X improvement in ssd, that will help with streaming and new content. And the ssd is said to have ram, while series x is said lacks ram, without ram it is said ssd performance can be unreliable and it can throttle from time to time.

So where looking a 3 to 4gb of GDDR6 will not be available for Devs.

 

[FunkMiller]

This is pretty lame. I assume there's a good reason why the new camera can't work with PSVR, but I would really like Sony to clear a few things about the whole implementation of VR on Ps5 anyway. And when and where do we get these adaptors from? They haven't said they're included in the box.

Well Demon Souls was officially confirmned to have a 4K Mode in it.

Demon's Souls | PS5 Games | PlayStation

Get Demon's Souls on PS5. Get the latest news, screenshots, trailers and more on the official PlayStation website.

www.playstation.com

• Stunning visuals: See the dark, gritty world of Demon’s Souls come to life on the PS5 console with beautifully enhanced visuals. Players can choose between two graphics modes while playing Demon’s Souls: 4K Mode (play in 4K resolution2) and High Frame Rate Mode (play with a higher targeted frame rate.)

There's an asterisk but it says this.

24K resolution gameplay requires a compatible 4K TV or display.

Demon Souls is a next gen title that has a 4K 30FPs Mode with Ray Tracing and a lower resolution mode without Ray Tracing at 30FPs.

Edit: I'm obviously talking about the remake instead of the PS3 version.

What is this, exactly? Are we doing list wars now? Maybe make a new thread for this discussion. I'm sure the rest of the board is just itching to war over this. All this will do is result in people shitting on various games in a list for one reason or another. That's not going to benefit this thread in any way.

Ah okay, now I understand you. Hmm ... unfortunately I can't answer that. Let's see, on the one hand, you could really deduce all the information regarding PSVR2. And on the other hand, sometimes you take for granted things that are not. For example, I could have complete or selective information but not have the hardware and work with other versions, and when it arrives it may not arrive "complete". That is, for example (not for confirmation), you can work with a wired remote and then the final version can be wireless. I do not know if you understand. For the same reason, although I could confirm or deny something, it does not imply that this will be the case at the time of health to the market. Also, that I am a nobody, above me are the second parties and the first parties, and not all have access to everything. Don't expect so much from me because I don't know everything, I can't comment on how little I might know.

Going forward MS wil just say “Coming to gamepass”.

Gamepass will be on everything anyway. MS is going out of its way to make a browser based gamepass just for iOS. MS always dreamed of being apple - they failed - but despite that they’ll still find away to get gamepass on the iOS platform.

You’re going to stop hearing specific platforms mentioned for games over the coming years.

LOL, via browser I guess the software could be anywhere.

MS wants GP to be the platform, however, not be a service on another platform. The difference between GP and Netflix is that there is no revenue other than the base subscription with video streaming, not the case for GP where MTX will bring in additional profits and MS wants their cut. GP will live on Xbox and any platform open enough to not charge a tax on MTX (which will never be Sony or Nintendo IMO), plus I would expect Xcloud to eventually allow access to full price titles from the store. MS has enough reach to do fine with the platforms they control, better to use the acquisitions to increase the reach of that base rather than worry about competing platforms. Putting games on PS is literally one of the only ways they could make Bethesda a bad investment.

Say what you want about ubi (and most of the criticisms they get are fair, IMO), but CoD and AC sell millions of copies with each iteration. There are many console players that primarily play just these titles, if anyone bought ubi that would sting (Amazon would be an instant player if they did).
