French video comparing DMC5 PS4 Pro to PS5:


Loading times:
-From boot up to main menu (without skipping any logos):
  • PS4 Pro: 01:28:17
  • PS5: 00:51:17
-From main menu to a new game:
  • PS4 Pro: 00:32:08
  • PS5: 00:03:04
-Loading a saved game from main menu:
  • PS4 Pro: 00:29:17
  • PS5: 00:02:17

-From game back to main menu:
  • PS4 Pro: 00:16:13
  • PS5: 00:01:14

Guy can't compare with the Series X version because Capcom only supplied him with a PS5 one. Game has ray tracing & 120fps modes.

  • We know Sony have one more surprise
  • Game releases have been brought forward to the 12th
  • The console was, apparently, intended to be a simultaneous, worldwide release.
  • Rumours swirling that some stockists are moving the date forward in the EU
  • Xbox releases soon
  • More to be revealed on the 6th
Sony are releasing worldwide on the 12th. 'Ave it*

*I may also be terribly wrong and have guessed out of my Arse

Is there a preorder thread or tracking site?

I have 2 relatives asking me where to get a preorder. I did the Sony preorder invitation thing, so I have not been keeping up.

Even though this isn’t real, I do wonder what the load times would be like:



If they would even add RTGI at all, what kind of performance impact it would have since that’s running on a 2080ti. Likely @30 FPS too.

VRS seems to muddy everything in watch dogs legion and in every box of x game comparison so far. how can the old console deliver a better IQ? Does the PS5 have something similar and of better quality?

The other big offender is Dirt 5, lower resolution everywhere. It´s so obvious, even a one eyed chicken could find it (backgrounds are rendered at 50%, maybe even less).

I don´t get it, one looks sharp the other is blurry af.

I think it's just the developers not familiar with this new tech. Given enough time they will find a way to better use it.

Bit of a glance at the Playstation Options UI

Looks Clean



1:10, mouse and keyboard. I don't remember seeing that as an OS-wide option in PS4, is it? Just in select games. Also SOOO much less laggy than the PS4 UI.

Also, it just feels right that $SNE is going to pay for my PS5😁

has to be 120fps4K? 120fps fhd xsx vs 30fps?4K ps4pro, because the xsx footage looks bad. that vrs on the xsx sure makes it look blurry.

Okay, so I'm clicking on these photos to make them larger you see. I then see the ads on the page...anime "adult" games. I close it out and click on another photo. The anime adult ads are now gone reverting back to carguru ads. Did I imagine that? There are no anime porn nonsense in my search history I SWEAR. Was it trying to entice me?

Anyway, wow do those textures take a nosedive at 120hz.

Sorry about those specific ads :p
Use uBlock! and whitelist sites you wanna support.

I counted 60 frames for 1 second of video. Of course the XSX could have been running at 120fps and captured at 60fps? Not sure if they ever released any 120fps footage yet. In the description of the video, he says the b-roll footage for XSX was 60fps quality mode, but that can´t be.

Yeah I had my doubts the initial crop of PCIE 4 drives would be enough.. it just didn't really make any sense to me.

Yeah my 970 Pro does throttle eventually, which is not good for PS5. I would rather use the external SSD to shift games in/out quickly instead of running them there.

One of the best free online shooters, I'd say it's a much better offer than Destiny. Incredibly polished already, PS5 will make it even more so.

Yeah I was surprised by the gameplay, pretty solid.

Played it for long years, trust me, it's more than worth to invest some time in it. After all it's free 😄

Sackboy and Spider-Man, as those are first-party and probably won't be discounted until early next year.

Watch_Dogs Legion PS4 version (remember, it has cross-buy, so you'll get it on PS5 as well) will go on sale during Black Friday, The Game Awards and close to Christmas.

This is kinda disappointing but oh well. It's kinda sad how Microsoft nail down all aspects of the console (yes I know 217GBP is a lot for an extra 1TB,but at least it is there at launch as an option), besides the exclusive games. While with Sony it seems the other way around.

Double the speed vs 175gb more? I know what I’d rather choose. You can add more storage to the ps5 but you can’t make the ssd in the xsx any faster.
