AND HERE IT IS, AS PREDICTED. Called it long ago they would cast doubt on Cerny's words, but I expected they would AFTER the technical talk, not before. 😆

He hasn't even spoke and they're clinging to his skill to explain 'better ray tracing'.🫠

They haven't the slightest clue, like us, how it's gonna be. Yet they're already with the hows. Not a single technical detail.

Wait for it, when it ends, they will reexplain everything Mark Cerny said in maybes, we'll see, etc just as they did with Road To PS5.

I'm not clairvoyant, they're just that transparent to me and many others here.
I expect people will be divided here as well, many didn’t understand what the tech meant during Road to PS5, likely also trying to relate it to PC setups. The Pro thread is already filled with that now.

DF have done it for PS4 (14 + 4 CUs, only 14 for graphics so XB1 could have similar graphics achtually) and PS5 (not hardware RT, only audio RT haha audio RT haha, 9TF, RDNA1).

They'll do it again, happily and freely for their corporate and billionaire friends, for PS5 Pro.

Maybe as a bonus Cerny will present two variations of PSSR:

- One for PS5pro, native AI factor. Similar to DLSS.
- One for base PS5, without AI because doesn't support. Similar to FSR, alghoritm based with replace any sort of AA.
 
I know people are concerned about the 9 minutes. Here’s my two cents.

I recall that during the The Road To PS5 talk, there was a lot of immediate negative reception, as people thought it was going to be a game showcase, rather than an in-depth technical talk, I even remember the video had an absurd amount of dislikes. Granted that talk has aged very well, and it seems that Mark Cerny has turned into an almost cult like figure in the gaming world.

I think Sony were very aware of how the Road to PS5 talk was received at the time, so they will now go down a different route. So rather doing an in-depth technical talk, they will do a more simplified version, and Mark Cerny is perhaps one of most gifted orators in the gaming world so if there’s anyone who’s able to simplify technical information it’s going to be him.

I suspect there will be briefings for several gaming oriented media outlets, especially Eurogamer and Wired which will go more into depth about the hardware and software as they’ll do the marketing on Sony’s behalf even if it’s not their intention to do so.

It’s also obvious to me that we’ll see real examples of games which will showcase the benefits of the PS5 Pro, we’ll see the tangible benefits of the RT and ML uplift and this will very likely be with pre-existing titles, especially the heavy hitters like GOWR, Black Myth, Elden Ring, FF7Rebirth, FF16, Horizon Forbidden West and maybe many others.

I think there will be a separate showcase as per the leaks, which will reveal the new titles but it won’t be at tomorrows event.

I swear they have ZERO dignity, after Cerny took all of them back to school when he designed PS5. They still doubt him and talk like they know anything?

But to answer their stupid question, I agree that Cerny NEEDS more than 9 minutes to explain for their dense asses!

Mark Cerny gave a literally flawless presentation talking about PS5 architecture with his "road to PS5" speech, not a single "uh" or "ehh" and he talked for almost an hour. It is easily one of the best presentations I have ever seen.

I can listen to this man talk about the benefits of moving from 2 millisecond seek time to instantaneous SSD or custom I/O units for hours.

Mark Cerny is a god and easily one of Playstation's most important assets.

I completely agree with you man, that presentation is stunning and rich with great info. I really wish we had similar one for every console created.

DF not pleased with only 9 minutes:


Shouldn't they be happy about this? When the Pro they'll have content for weeks. I prefer a shorter presentation that isn't bloated where they get out what they have to say and not waste everyone's time.

I shouldn't be surprised given how DF is a extension of legacy media and they probably weren't given the preferential treatment they get from MS.

Will there be anyway for people to know that without actually seeing it in real time?
I don't trust Sony slides tomorrow. same goes for AMD and Nvidia. they all try to present the image in thebeost possible way. usually its when its still shots.

the only way to know for real if it works properly or not is to see something from digital foundry and whats the like.

however, we can get an idea of its actually using hardware level upscaling or not software only like the FSR. if its hardware level, its close to Nvidia more than AMD.

PS5 Pro Digital lands Nov 14th at £499.99. Fancy the deluxe? The PS5 Pro arrives Dec 5th at £589.99.
So like $650 digital?? Why ttf it's so expensive. Hope this isn't true lmao.

It’s not a 1:1 dollar conversion like most people think. The PS5 is actually cheaper in the USA. UK seems to have it at £479.99, meanwhile its $499 in USA. If those prices are anything to go by, we might see $549 for DE and $599 for disc.

As an occasional radio host and event host: SO MUCH THIS. He is full of rizzz while presenting such complex stuff.

£499 is like, the dream scenario for the Pro. No way it’s coming cheaper than that. This leak would be ideal, as it would lend credence to a drop for the OG.

They have to show at least some comparissons when they talk about PSSR and RT, i hope they upload a nice 4K video to see the difference.
 
Sure sounds like a PS 5 pro reveal. Is frame doubling a possibility with these things I wonder? I’m more interested in smoother gameplay than just a IQ jump.
