I need the 4k footage because some games didn't looked that impressive...

Gow2 and hogwarts in 2021 are hot fire 🕺 (they are both gonna be delayed to 2022🕺🕺)

spiderman continue to look the quintessential cross-gen game to me, like i said, we need 4k footage.

Not really impressed by demons except for the inevitable joy of seeing such a great and old game with updated animations\graphics, again, 4k footage to form a better judgement.

Cod looks like the usual shit with cardboard enemies, it's nice to have some certainties during these hard times.

good to know that i can download for free the freetoplay game called fortnite at launch, that really saved the end of the event for me.

The price was not a surprise, now you can all tranquilize while i end my analyze (am i a fucking poet or what?)

I will get the 499 version anyway to have access to my ps4 library and used ps5 games. If I don't use it... then I will not use it

It started off ok, peaked at spider man then suddenly took a huge 180 degrees turn straight downhill, at least the price point is competitive, also still no silent hill and ff16 is quite disappointing, that's probably the worst debut showing of the series' numbered title, seems like I can wait for the pc version. I'll at least be waiting till ps5 pro.

Standouts were Miles Morales, Demon Souls, GOW teaser, and the price of the DE. All 4 are certified for me.

Stuff I'm curious about are Deathloop, Harry Potter, and maybe Final Fantasy.

Iffy on DMC5 and RE8. The latter I'm just not a massive fan of, but will get if it's good.

I'm hoping we get updated trailers for the games that were only shown in the final sizzle, like Returnal. I really wanted more The Devil Inside this show. That might be the game I'm most interested in so far.

Not a killer show, but it hit the right notes for me. Not sure why I expected it to be a 2hr affair. I must have been thinking of something else.

looks so good it's almost fake (even if they try to make it look like mobile game ad)

This fell flat on its face and was a very disappointing showcase. This really isn't going to get people excited at all. Sony really didn't presented a reason to get a PS5. The price is good, but not when your competitor is selling a console that is more powerful and offers a vastly superior service.

I'm laughing but as a Switch owner in the back of my mind I am thinking 4TFLOPS!!! (if only)
 
as someone who missed out on the end of the PS4, that wasn't bad, plus some fun looking new stuff

im pleasantly surprised...price is good too...i might not make it for launch, but im in on PS5 once i save up some scratch for the $499 edition...

someone help me out here...my lady has a bluray player...isn't this a new one?

...pretty sure she's gonna need that or some shit

lol @ everyone asking for pre-order dates.

We never had them before. It is only because Microsoft decided for some insane reason they actively don't want you to impulsively hit that pre-order button even before PS5 had revealed itself that you're asking for one.

You're going to need 8k to make these games impressive.

Decent showing... but strange that they are still only showing 3d renders of the console??? I was hoping to see Jim holding one for the price reveal or something haha
 
7.5-8 showcase

Spiderman looked on point and great gameplay

Looper looks surprisingly good to me, I'm in.

Loved the way they panned around the PS5 and did the visual aesthetics

PS4 games coming day one to ps5 looked gd for new ppl in eco system

Devil May Cry remastered looks interesting

COD can play Fri mp niceeee

Demon Souls, omg Demon Souls its what I stated would make me happy and oh lawd. Best next gen graphics I seen on any conference and it was gameplay!!!!

Price is on point!!!!

God of War 2coming soon

Harry Potter. Fake insiders said it wouldn't be show boooooyaaaa there u go.

Negatives:

No pre order date wtf
God of War 2 cock tease no gameplay
No Horizon
 

Iced Arcade

Side note... I made the mistake watching the IGN Live feed. Fuck that guy was obnoxious hollering "oh silent hill" at the start of every trailer lol

Got to say I am pretty disappointed with that showing....

I mean Spider-Man, Demon's Souls and even HP looked great and most of the rest where repeat shows but the price is at the higher end above PS3 launch price in UK for the disc version. DE is nicely priced relative to the XSS, though. Still no pre-order date! Not sure why they didn't show anything from GoW if its coming next year.

Hey-ho. Let's see how things pan out over the next few weeks.

I stated it before but i think the reason we are not seeing gameplay for HZD and GoW-R is because the games are already behind schedule because of covid and working several weeks on that vertical slice isnt worth it. I literally "predicted" there to be a logo reveal of some sort because of that.

Nothing to get too worried about just yet. I'd rather get the game sooner. Its not like this is some unknown game that we need prove of that its any good.
Plus it gives them more to hype up mid next year during what was formerly known as E3 season.
 
This was the weakest showcase I’ve ever seen. They could’ve just posted the price and release date on Twitter or whatever instead. None of the games looked very impressive to be honest, and Ragnarök was hardly even a teaser. The price was nice though.

2/10
I know you'll be having sweet dreams of Demon Souls tonight literally has gameplay that looked better than any gane on any conference, it's, ok to be a fan.
 
Wall to wall bangers and mash. Excellent showing of great games to come.

Launch day lineup is a bit sus but it's pretty evident by the end of 2021, PS5 will be a must have console. The PS Plus collection was a great way to alleviate some of the launch day issues for players.

GTFO here.

demons souls is worth the price of admission alone, Miles Morales looks great. GOW Ragnarok. The list will grow as the years go on. Pricing is spot on also. It wasn’t the best showing, wanted to see the UI etc. But that can be updated with a few hundred meg download at regular intervals. I am in day one if I can get one, they’ll sell millions on the first few weeks easily.

8/10 for me.

More of Miles Morales, Harry Potter, more of COD, more of Demon Souls, teaser for GOW2 and price/release date. I'm happy.

That's all I needed for now and I know GOW2, Ratchet and Horizon are coming later.

Just wished there was a pre-order date.

Will buy the disc version anyway. So I can fully disconnect my pro.

Demon's Souls is visually looking much better than I was expecting. Looks great! I wasn't planning on getting it immediately because I already have played it to death on PS3. But this looks like a completely different game world now! Im back onboard!


Also the only PlayStation Collection game I don't already own is Days Gone. Ateast I will finally get around to playing that.
