PlayStation 5 - Official Hyperpop Collection Trailer

Console covers are one of the dumbest thing that came to existence this gen. You end up with spare stuff that's totally pointless. Just make a bundle so that people don't end up with useless shit.
 
The controllers look nice enough.

The system covers can only do so much to cover the damage of that base design.
 
The way Sony is turning into Microsoft is worrying. They release more controller and console colors than games. The sad part is they can't even do it well. It's always some ugly ass looking colors too.

Their design team needs a nice tap to the noggin to reset their thinking. Ugly as usual. I got dragged into the nostalgia and purchased a 30th anniversary ps5. The console was ugly af. The box design was cool though.

What? You want a console bundle instead? Is that what you are saying?

How are console covers not a good thing for people? It gives people a way to customize their consoles without having to buy an entire new console.

Any chance I can get a non-white Edge controller?
It comes in black?

Or black. I want a funky looking Edge. Ideally a special edition (with a high production number so I don't have to fight scalpers for it).

Ok so if I want a blue console and controller, I am forced into buying a white console + white controller, and then buy an additional blue controller and blue faceplates. So as far as I am concerned, this is more expensive and I have useless stuff lying around.
 
Ha, it's RGB. I wonder how close the colors are to the pure values

Red: 255, 0, 0
Green: 0, 255, 0
Blue: 0, 0, 255

According to the screenshot:

Red: 229,46,48
Green: 164,233,65
Blue: 12,203,255

Grain of salt being a screenshot, but I wouldn't expect them to be the pure colors.

My need to not purchase a whole new $500 console, thanks to covers, more than outweighs your preciousness about a $60 cover (and slobmaxing by not tidying your stuff away).
 
Cant we just get black for the pro ? I brought that piece of shit the other week but I cant get it out of the box with that white look stinking out the gaff.

I bought black plates for the Pro on EBay. They look great. Try that if you really want plates as Sony doesn't seem interested in making them.

Thanks mate, I haven been looking at a few knock offs but not sure what to go for, will take a chance on a set soon.
 
I've always loved the PS3 design, that's a sweet design afterwords it was the PS4 and it was just ok, PS5 I'm just curious where they got the design, I don't think it's bad but the intention is weird.
 
I hope this is not limited edition and be sold out early.

By the way, with those colors, I think Sony is quietly hyping Micro RGB technology TV.

Can't help but think this was suppose to be part of the marketing for Marathon but because of the bad press for that game they pulled that and rebranded this as "hyperpop" lol.

Funny, I remember people loving them for 360.

Resell the white console, buy the blue one. Simple enough I think.
 
Lack of PS5 Pro plates is bizarre. It's been over a year. I know it's probably not selling anywhere near as much as the regular console but come on.
 
Im glad Sony are following the Xbox model......fuck the games, we want more controller colorways.

<---Serial controller collector.......shame on me.

Theyll be off because pure values are almost impossible to find in the real world.
Its why CG artists are told never to use pure values cuz they will always look fake.
A substance absorbing absolutely all the Yellow, Green and Blue light and then reflecting perfect 100% Red is nigh unfathomable considering the light thats hitting it.
You could in theory make have pure white lighting hitting said substance and it was perfectly........ahhh damn im getting to technical for no reason.

They wont be pure values basically nothing in the real world is.
Even Zinnias arent "Pure Red".

Inb4 that one artist created that one paint color that absorbs all the blue spectrum and he sold it at auction or whatever.

Maybe, but considering it launching on all platforms and isnt a massively known IP, there wouldnt have been any incentive for people to buy these since the game isnt exclusive to Playstation.

We had it better back then with the sticker ones. Got them for free on magazines and could just replace them if you got tired of them.

Hyperpoop

Plates seem to be translucent in the upper part (check the vid at ~0:25 timestamp) so they look kinda cool but I don't like glossy plastic on controllers.

How did you miss the controllers share the same colour scheme as Marathon, the trailer design is inspired by Marathon and both the collection and game release in March.
