Happy PS5 release day , us in EU have to wait a bit longer.

here is a suggestion though : shouldnt we create a threat about how PS4 games run on PS5?

I have a bunch of games that would love to have some feedback about how them run on PS5.

Yeah it'd be nice if people could contribute towards a list detailing PS4 game performance on PS5.

 

[Passive_Bob]

I would really appreciate a look at PS Now on PS5. Anyone got any video or pics?

 

[Metsuk]

Really need someone to test a g29 on the ps5.

 

[kittoo]

I'm sure it's been stated, but for those getting rid of their PS4, please remember to initialize the damn system beforehand. The last thing you need is a surprise after spending over $500

Wait what does that mean? I already sold my PS4 to a friend.

 

[MrS]

Now get the Pulse 3D, ASAP!

Mine arrived today. Lovely little headset!

 

[Bo_Hazem]

Mine arrived today. Lovely little headset!

I know it'll not be like high end headsets, but I bet my money on it to have superior/most optimization for locality and accuracy.

 

[GaviotaGrande]

Have fun boys and girls!

Have a PS5 with your PC to see how it compares in size

It won't beat my PC in size nor in power but I'm sure it will provide some unique games that won't be possible anywhere else. Where's that Gran Turismo 7?!?

Man, GT7 gonna be crazy. Although I like arcadey racers for fun, but used to buy every GT game until I skipped GT Sport and also didn't like GT6. Don't wanna miss playing the all new Nissan Z!

 

[Inviusx]

So I've been playing Demons Souls. It's absolutely fantastic in Performance mode. Don't even bother with Quality mode, I barely noticed a difference and the frame drop is significant. Does not feel smooth at all. I noticed some audio bugs as well particularly with the dragon bridge section in 1-1. Great time so far though.

No different to when PS1, PS2, PS3 and PS4 launched surely.

We were talking several months then, not a week.

Great to hear, still have to wait 1 week for my Demons Souls bundle, it's gonna be a long week. /cries in German

I was 10 when the PS1 launched in Japan. Arrived here in the UK ~9 Months later and then I had to wait until Xmas. That was LONG 12 months with just Monthly Magazines available. These kids Nowadays *Mumbles*

 

[Inviusx]

how is the control?

60fps lock. So it's super responsive. Feels great.

 

[Games Dean]

A new gen awaits.

 

[MoreJRPG]

I know it'll not be like high end headsets, but I bet my money on it to have superior/most optimization for locality and accuracy.

A $100 headset will not have “superior” and “most optimization”, it’s going to be severely limited by the drivers. Platinum and Gold headset had the same issue.

But carry on.

 

[TTOOLL]

I thought it was already confirmed to work with the PS5.

 

[rofif]

If you have the disc version and don’t patch it, it’ll run at 60fps locked.

last guardian had 30fps patch?

How about updated vs ps5 versions?
If I own a game on disc or psn... and if there is a ps5 patch then it's free right?

 

[Bo_Hazem]

Keyword "locality" and its accuracy. Sound quality depends on how much you pay.

 

[TexMex]

Welcome to the new age!!!

 

[Hoho for breakfast]

Walmart delayed my order for the disc version ordered on Sept 17th. Got the email an hour ago. Luckily, my other one from Sony is set to arrive today. Isn't Walmart going to be selling these later today?? If so, fuck you Walmart.

Controller feels rather nice and comfy.

No luck in Korea. All online sales gone within seconds. The demand here is off the charts! Stores are doing another round of online sales next week.

I feel like I'm the only one in the US that got a delay email from Walmart?? Somebody has to be with me...right? I'm only seeing people in Canada talking about a PS5 delay.

Edit: And they just emailed me again...with the same exact email!! They know!! They're just rubbing salt in the wound!!! I can hear them cackling with glee from here!!!!!

 

[deafmedal]

Persistence with Best Buy’s horrible preorder experience paid off:

Was able to set up an appointment for my wife to zip in early and get out quickly to grab it and a stack of movies. Too bad I won’t get to play with it for a couple more weeks since I’m out of town

People say I'm a little like Chong Mong-Chu but instead of a King I have PlayStation....

Anyway, I hope you get lucky and find one soon!

 

[sloppyjoe_gamer]

In the US....so aside from the various times Walmart will have online orders available to try to get, is everything else already sold out? I thought Target, Best Buy and Gamestop were going to have some extras today too for online ordering. On their sites they all say "not available"...

 

[#Phonepunk#]

pre-ordered on Target and it looks like i will be getting day-of-release!

honestly this is the first time i have ever bought a new console on release date.

looking forward to getting real deep into Demon's Souls and taking much needed breaks with Astro Bot. that game looks like a lot of fun!

Guys can You check if DS5 can be connected to PC or PS4/3 as normal pad ?

[Esppiral]

I am here just to tell to all of you that already got a PS5 that I hate you with all my heart.



Joke, but I am really jelaus since I'll have to wait longer, guess is one of the privileges of being European....

I am on the east coast and preordered on sept.16 via paypal on walmart.com. I have not received any notice, it still says on my order preparing, and says I can pick it up after 6pm tonight?

Works on PS3, not on PS4.

It's when you restore it to factory settings.

Happy launch day bitches

 

[Birgitte2004-2]

Console acquired, set up, and now downloading Demon's Souls and Bugsnax. I too am having extremely fast downloads so far (knock on wood). It's using my entire connection, which is something I'm not sure the PS4 ever did.
