It was a good show overall. Too many indies for my taste.

I think the console looked cool. Hope it can be placed horizontally though.
 
All the trailers are being uploaded on the PlayStation YouTube chanel in high quality BTW. Everything looks a lot better than it was in the stream.
 
Console looks weird. Bad weird with the disc version, good weird with the discless one. Guess I know which variant I'm getting.

But as far as games go? I'm excited about video games, and that's a good place to be.
 
Very underwhelmed. No urge to preorder until a must-have game comes out that won't run on Ps4 Pro.

I bet they will just make lots of games exclusive even though they do not need to be. I like how MS is handling it.
 
How the hell do you justify a digital addition when the Blu-ray drive only accounts for a small fraction of the cost of the entire console I don't get it. Are they going to have one that's $499 and another one that's $475? I think there's more to that all digital edition than they have revealed at this point. I wonder if it's not a lesser powered console just like Lockhart is rumored to be.

Maybe the blu-ray version will be BC with all previous Playstation consoles?
 
Horizon is the only game that looks next gen. Second one is Kena (?), RE looks nice too.

Console is.... IDK at the moment.

Ratchet looks like SSD tech demo
 
I'm guessing $50 price difference between digital and physical drive versions? $450/$500?
 
All the trailers have been uploaded in 4K

1/5 shit show. Only ratchet and Horizon with a touch of resident looked Interesting and next gen.
WTF Sony...

The console looked awesome!
 
So, on the plus side, the console looks nice (to my tastes) and Ratchet and Clank looked wonderful. There was a moment during the gameplay where I thought 'wow, this really does look like a generational leap'.

The rest of the show was painfully fucking average. We all lay into Nintendo and MS, but fuck me that was just as rubbish.

And thankfully this can put to bed the 'even PCs can't run PS5 games' bullshit.

It looked like exactly what your money would get you now. Something between a 2070 and a 2080, with some cute graphical features that the SSD must help with.

Disappointing, but only because I fell for the hype. Again.

My thoughts exactly.

Really enjoyed Ratchet though. Holds a special place for me.
 
The only things I liked in the presentation was

Ratchet
RE8
Horizon
Demon Souls
Console

I'd give the presentation an 8/10

could have been a 10 with Silent Hill but these fuckers broke my heart.
 
Never thought I'd say this but I see the Microsoft show that shows off their 1st party games beating this showing. This was an awful reveal in comparison to PS4's reveal.
 
They didn't have a killzone like game to show how amazing the games will look. They actually had a lot of games I'm going to buy but they failed to properly hype me up for PS5. This event should have been 2 hours longer so we could have more gameplay from Spiderman, horizon, souls, ratchet , and etc.

Maybe don't want to get beat I'm price I'm reading a lot around the web.
 
Well I'm happy.

Ratchet & Clank. Spider-Miles. Demon's Souls. Horizon Forbidden West. A bunch of cool looking smaller titles.

Love the design of the console. Love that both new consoles are towers actually. I'll probably get the official headphones as well.

Good stuff PlayStation. Over to you Xbox.
 
So i put on the presentation while at work but on mute. Anddddddd wtf was i watching? An indie showcase and some third-party games. Only got see a bit of the Horizon 2 reveal.

Did I miss anything else of significance?
