Like Grubb said, pre-orders, price, etc. will probably come on a blog post since these things are far from set on stone. If Sony really wants to go after MS, they can post on PS Blog 15 minutes after MS say their price lol

That's not how business works. They have a strategy and these things have to be planned ahead. Also an event for the price and pre-orders is more impactful than a blog post.
 
Do we know anything about PSNow changes plans?

As far as I know, PSNow allows downloading of only the non-PS3 games. Offering streaming-only for those is absolutely killing my interest for the service. Mortal Kombat 9, for example, is only available on a current machine via PSNow, but it is streaming-only and is an unplayable laggy mess.

I think PSNow would have a lot more adoption, if they figured-out a way to allow downloading for all games on the service, but is it even technologically possible?
It's called backwards compatibility, and so far PS5 only allows it for PS4 games.
 


Microsoft: Gamepass is great
Me: Ok, when's Killer Instinct?
Microsoft: Halo Infinite is gonna be great
Me: Ok, but... when's Killer Instinct?
Microsoft: Next Forza is gonna be awesome
Me: Yeah sure, but when's Killer Instinct?
Microsoft: We doing Gamepass deal for just 1$
Me: Nice, but when's Killer Instinct?
Microsoft: We're releasing Xbox series S cheap price and you can play Gamepass on Samsung stuffs
Me: Amazing, but Killer Instinct?
Microsoft: We are gonn...
Me: ... Ok never mind, gl and bye.
 
its their enhanced engine and assets for next gen. without knowing details, who the fuck knows what is the bottleneck that ps5 hits and cannot hold 60hz.
oh well, who cares about that, fuck it, lets just bring out the pitchforks instead!!


I'm sorry, there is no way the ps5 struggles at 1080/60 , while the xsx is native 4k/60. Something isn't right.
 
Sorry, I know the 3rd party exclusive predictions were a couple pages back, but I thought I'd throw mine in.

Titanfall 3 - meets the criteria of a game associated with another platform.

A Marvel deal - can see Sony and Marvel making a deal for Insomniac making Avengers or other Marvel property games.

I'm guessing the 2013 KI flopped or something?

I'm sure they'd keep working on it/making more if it didn't.. seems like a relatively cheap game series to produce that fits their GamePass model well.

I agree... No WAY this could be reality...unless they were using full ray tracing or something. Then would be the equivalent of the XSX Minecraft raytracing demo that was mostly 30fps and less. Other than that...I call full BS on this claim. I mean, the PS4 PRO can do 60fps @1080 no problem and some games 60fps with the checkerboard 4k. No way the PS5 would do less.

For a game that was launch with only 5 characters the game had a lot of hype and excitement around it, and tbh i'm not sure about sales but i think it did good enough, i heard one time it reached one million copies sold of season 1 but not sure about this.
 


Not giving this dude any credibility, but yeah it's likely true, RedGamingTech said this a few weeks ago that there would be a teardown event towards the end of August.
 
I believe Amazon bought the KI team in the middle of developing the DLC.
Correct. It was Double Helix that developed it and then Iron Galaxy took over for season 2 because of the sale.

But funnily enough, Iron Galaxy was actually first choice to develop KI but were too busy at the time.

I can't stand these conversations. Of course the PS5 can run Fall Guys at 60fps. Of course it can run GT Sport at 60fps. Of course it can play games in 4k. All context is left out of the conversation.

Yeah.. take everything "insider" with so much salt it would kill you. It sounds very plausible, but honestly, hell, at this point, I have given up news regarding their events. At some point, it'll happen, but, this is all just ridiculous. No, it's not likely to make people not order or buy whichever they were going to, but, it's also really crappy to do to your customer base.

This whole lead up to next gen was nuts tho. I still remember Cerny back in March (I guess?) saying "our teardown very soon" or something like that. Now we may go into September without this damn teardown. This is just crazy!!

Immersion: Sony's Focus on PS5 DualSense Haptics Tech is Due to PS4 Already Having Pretty Much Maxed Out the Audio-Visual Experience

"We believe that Sony has done a wonderful job delivering an amazing surround sound experience over the years", the CEO said. "That experience is pretty much maximized. In other words, it's kind of hard to increase it by a significant amount. And the same thing with video, the incredible graphics on the PS4 will be improved with the PS5. But we're getting to that point where it is quite an outstanding experience. And therefore, the question is where do you go next, which is why we believe Sony and other gaming consoles are starting to focus on haptics. It's kind of the third experience to get you more immersed in that game."


"That is a brand-new experience, and that is singularly differentiated by haptics", he told investors. "And we're very excited about this, not just because Sony is doing it, but we believe that kind of experience will be the norm and the standard going forward."

So whats the plan? Get a PS5 and NEVER (0,001% chance) play KI or buy XSX and play KI day one (and get upgrades for XSX) and probably get a new KI game in time?
 
Foxy Games knows NOTHING!!!! Last year I occasionally watched videos of his and he is just rambling on and on. And on Twitter he only posts cryptic shit. Look at the length of his vids. He tries so hard to put them over 10 min. Nah fam, people like him and MBG are useless fucks when it comes to gathering new info. Reddit and Neogaf/Resetera is enough for me. I can read for myself I don't need to waste my time for 10 min to let them read it for me



look at this motherfucker...

I forgot to mention Mystic. Best Playstation focused youtuber.

Still falling for Sony marketing rubbish.

I'm sure you were saying the exact same thing last gen, weren't you? The difference between the PS4 and XBone was purely theoretical and less than it seemed with the XBone being easier to fully utilise. Right?

And we all know who the ones that will cry about 'foul play' first are, with all of the 'complaints' about DF.
You've got a nerve accusing me of insignificant nonsense, you don't even know me. Who the fuck do you think you are that gives you privileges to spew out confrontational diarrhea? Put a buttplug in it princess!

Probably he is just making this up, but if I had to guess, it would be remastered versions of PS4 games

He never said that. Just said they were "saving that for our tear down" about the cooling/thermal details of PS5.

This does not inspire confidence about future innovation in gaming.

Please stop posting about him then, unless he's credible

Everyone seems to have forgotten Nintendo waited til January to announce Switch price and date, pre orders etc. They literally hadn't even shown the thing til October, then 2 months before launch had the big event. Everything went fine.

I've always assumed Sony and Microsoft could wait til September to announce price, date, and launch pre orders will open a week after. Apple does it like that. They have an event usually 2-3 weeks before launch, give dates and prices, then open up pre orders 1 week after the event. And since 2019, Sony is following Apple's approach of now selling their hardware directly to customers from their own site.

Sony marketing guy already said they will give fans plenty of warning to get a pre-order. And we all have know this console was coming this fall for over a year now, so everyone has had plenty of time to plan ahead. Same with the Xbox.

Would the difference be 4k vs 1080p, even with RT? I don't think it would such a disparity.

I'm beginning think the cancelled PS4/X1 version was the real info here. I'm growing more suspicious the more I read into this.
Lol.

I can't stand these conversations. Of course the PS5 can run Fall Guys at 60fps. Of course it can run GT Sport at 60fps. Of course it can play games in 4k. All context is left out of the conversation.
Huh? I'm replying to someone talking specifically about the RE8 "rumour". There is no way one is 4k and the other 1080p. Its 12TF vs 10Tf, not xsx vs the ps4 pro.

Yeah Apple proved you can literally break records for "things being pre-ordered" by announcing a product's existence the day before pre-orders are available, within a few weeks of the product actually shipping.

Doesn't mean every product will have the same success, but it proves at the very least you can have enormous success with very short windows between the marketing of a product and it's availability to the public. It's not about "surprising" people; people know a new Apple phone is coming... it's about concentrating their marketing while people are paying the most attention, and making people feel like they'll be missing out if they don't pre-order ASAP.. and it works.

Just because consoles usually announce price 5 months ahead of time doesn't mean they ever really HAD to do it that way, and they are somehow losing out on sales by waiting longer than usual. In the end we'll probably get this information with 2+ months to spare... and we'll sit around waiting to be able to actually use the damn things anyways lol
