But these servers don't go offline it's the stores that get shutdown...once you have bought the game its saved to your account and your account...

Yes, it should work as far as I know. It should work as soon as it.
Again think that's a reasonable assumption afaik but it's an assumption. If Sony was okay to patching out the time check then we wouldn't need to worry about connecting the console to the Internet at all.

Sure, they can fix that and they should, but mounting up mega threads to look at a mix of a far away eventuality with an assumption that something might also happen to generate a perfect storm of negative consequences feels less and less genuine the more threads are opened making the PS3 store taken down == PSN servers taken down equivalence.
If that is the gold standard for proofs people could be creative enough make up scenarios about Xbox too that sound scary enough too I guess… that would be equally stupid though.

I do not understand so much concern in 10-20 years it will be abandoning hardware and possibly it will happen when the store and the online close, by then you can jailbreak it in 10 different ways without spending money and play everything without activations.
Possibly the online is closed so in practice it does not affect it at all to jailbreak it.
The same thing happens with the Ps3 now you can jailbreak it without problem and load the games you want. Thanks to digital, now the hardware and community abandon you are able to play everything forever.
On the other hand, in 20 years you will be able to emulate these consoles on PC with 8K graphics improvements etc. .. and nobody will want to play the games in the original output because they will be blurred xD.
It is much more important to be respectful with the studies and guarantee their economic viability, and to continue betting on creativity against the budget to make excellent entertaining and quality games than to worry about what will happen to my games in 20 years. Because possibly the answer is to buy them for € 2 in their PC version or emulate them in 8k 3D because in native it looked bad.

Yeah I was playing Xenosaga last year and I wasn't doing it on a PS2.
Seems Amazon just can't catch a break.
Whenever I see something like this with Amazon or Google/Stadia...I'm reminded that MS said they are really competing with Amazon and Google.
Not gonna be much competition if they only see them as threats.
While this is true....for PlayStation at least PS5 version of games, PS5 exclusives seems to be selling fine all things considered.
I don't think it will effect them as much, especially since as of right now the PS5 is selling extremely well.

At the end of the year those who are willing to pay full price at release for a game will have a PS5 / XSX. It will be less and less relevant to support the PS4 too.

This cbomb stuff is madness
There are bigger issues to be concerned about like my precious PS exclusives going to PC

Its like someone said, by the time the battery dying becomes an issue, there are multiple other things that could fail.
My first PS3 died, looked like some hardware issue, but the battery was probably still fine.
I had dvd drives break on both a 360 and PS3 long before any battery would have died.
The PS6 will make it easier to replace the battery, bookmark this post. lol.

Cannot sell new consoles fast enough? There are more PS5s in the hands of gamers for the given time since launch, than any other PlayStation console previous to it.
So I think you are wrong. The timeline in terms of overlap will be similar to the PS2-PS3 and PS3-PS4 transition.

Exactly.
I don't know why some ppl keep talking about cross gen, when Sony is having exclusive PS5 games or doing good next gen versions.
Sony seems to be handling everything fine all things considered.
If they have to adapt, they will. If not...

Not to defend it but what you think will happen to the gamepass library about 10 years from now? Really people believe to preserve all their library behind a paywal service? Digital library is not forever

4k CBR without RT on ps5? Really? It runs 4k CBR even on PS4 pro at lower framerate. This engine is really something else on next generation hardware...or at least on ps5.

So, people are freaking out over something that will happen in 20 years? I don't even know whether I'm alive after that time, what to say about playing old games, and there're already people saying they are not buying a PS console now? These Sony doomers really like a hyperbole.

I'm more shocked to 4k CBR without raytracing. The fuck going on there. Really ps5 can't handle 50% of more native pixels of the pro? For real?Am I missing something here, I thought with RT on its 45fps on PS5

Seems to be punching well beyond the advertising. However, is the RT working? I can’t spot any improvement over RT off as usual.Am I missing something here, I thought with RT on its 45fps on PS5

This is good news. 4k native is a waste as usual, better to deploy the rendering towards better effects, LOD, etc.

Would be a good news if on pro it runs at 1600cbr. It's ridiculous ps5 uses the same resolution of the pro.

to me this just confirms that it was a last gen title from the start and all that talk of discussions on cancelling last gen versions or downporting them was all PR.
i mean it makes sense since this started dev in january 2017, but they marketed as a next gen game first. now that the comparisons are out, it looks virtually the same as last gen and they didnt even bother changing the ps5 resolution from checkerboarding.
did re2 and re3 use checkerboarding on xbox 1x? or was it native like avengers? i know they had to drop the resolution on the x1x to get it to run at 60 fps but was it native 4k before or 4kcb?
but are they even doing that? i really cant tell from the comparison. especially in the rt comparisons.

I don’t subscribe to that notion whatsoever. Good thing devs are looking towards iq beyond pixel counts. Even traditional pixel counters like DF are changing course.
Check out some of their recent vids on the topic. Once you reach a certain threshold, deploying more into it is diminished. Using resources smarter and more targeted is the essence of optimised results.

The only game without CBR on Xbox was Monster Hunter if I'm not wrong. All the rest it's CBR as playstation. I have to recheck RE7 for my curiosity.P S. Nope CBR in RE7 on one X 4K CBR Vs 1800 on pro . Curiously CBR seems worked better on pro console probably for the hardware id buffer I guess. Will see what will happen on series X.

Last gen will define the new gen for a long long time. Previously the gap between 360/PS3 and X1/PS4 was too big , that it would have to need a fairly separate development , thus resulting to a lot better utilisation of the hardware. In this transition between X1X/PS4 PRO and XSX/PS5 it seems that's they just up the frame rate and be done with. Bad ports to come for sure for a couple of years

Series X should run better with RT on as it's one advantage the hardware has over PS5, the results in this mode will be interesting to see if this advantage bears fruit in the real world, and not just in theoretical one.

I dont understand your gamepass comparison because its a subscription service - you're just renting everything.
The only comparison there is something like Sega Genesis Segachannel or Nintendo's satellite service which was shut down quickly.
For me personally, ill never get gamepass - not for me. I buy exactly what I want and dont have the desire to just play games on a whim.
The only real long term digital gaming examples from my experience are:
-Steam - I can still play all of my Steam purchases from when it was released in 2003 just fine.
-For Xbox, I purchased several original and 360 Xbox games digitally in the late 2000's (like Orta, NG Black, Lost Planet 2) that now play on new Xbox hardware.
-I never had a wii in its prime (I have one now) but from what I understand you can no longer download your digital purchases there.
-Sony shutting down PS3 store worries me that its only a matter of time before my digital PS3 titles wont be downloadable - the shutdown doesnt set a good precedent. Apparantly the cbomb news also affects PS3 digital purchases (not digital AND physical like the Ps4).
Most of this comes down to your perspective and preference in gaming. Some only play the latest and greatest. For me - I currently, in 2021, have 14 consoles still hooked up.
I play my NES, Genesis, SNES, PC Engine, PS1/2/3, Dreamcast along with modern stuff. If im going to spend thousands of dollars on PS4/5, XSX, Switch games - I expect to be able to play what I bought 30 years from now. The fact that this cbomb issue also affects physical disc games is a big deal from my perspective.
But again Sony can fix this with a simple software fix.

Just seems consistent 60fps... Unless the full game will experience some considerable drops.... But to be honest those RT effects are practically not there at all.... Just too damn subtle to justify having them. I mean why bother.

PS5 looks worse than the PS4 the fuck? Is this just a filter or something

Wouldn't be surprising if it exchanges the pro with ps5 version. VGTECH said pro suffer of ghosting and looking at here seems ghosting what I see in the ps5 picture...mmm looking at it again, seems sort of selective DOF in the face parts, on ps5?

This advantage could be very relative. Faster lesser CUs have their own advantage too for the raytrayced bounces.

Not sure if a weird take, but that Cutscene looks like something from FarCry 4+, it has that feel or I don't know how to put it.

In that mode the Pro runs at ~35fps while it's locked 60fps on PS5.
