I'm still blown away by the PS5 design, I think it looks super sleek, curvy and futuristic. Here are some reactions to the hardware reveal which I thought were great, I've time stamped the links!

The last vids reaction " This ain't your momma's fridge" LOL

 

[Three Jackdaws]

I don't want to trigger anybody but since we are sharing funny memes of both consoles, this one made me laugh out loud.

 

[HAL-01]

I have a feeling Sony made the disc drive ps5 ugly and digital version much sleeker to try and push people towards that one and jumpstart an all digital generation. It’s like it is screaming “look at this old disc tech encumbering this sleek design”

 

[Great Hair]

Not a chance in hell.

It´s based on GT Sport, not a new GT (by the looks of it). Has only GT World (with 5x tracks, 3x Regions = 15x tracks, 5x cups per track, 75 total races) and a Championship challenge (we got no info yet, lets assume about a similar amount)

After <150 races you´re done in GT7. There´s a mission mode like in GT4, but that won´t make it much bigger. GT Mode/World is limited to 75 races in total, when in prev. GTs you had to race twice as many or more.


GT World = Arcade
Championships = GT Mode
Special Events = Special

Guess i was wrong. Still gimmie 2020! 7 years waiting is enuff!!

 

[ksdixon]

I literally keep going back and forth on weather I like it or not...

I believe a lot will have to do with size. Both overall, and it's "slimness". Those white walls seem specifically shaped to hide the chunkinees of the with. And with the angles of the pics and stuff, maybe the console only "appears" thin in relation to what looks to be pretty tall height.

I think if it's a reasonable size, it'll be good. But if it's both tall and fat, it'll be a laughing stock.

 

[SlimySnake]

Spot the PlayStation 5

lmao.

people are nuts. its a cool looking console, its like someone is making you all to fuck it at gunpoint.

 

[Thirty7ven]

The 4K trailers are incredible. What a difference.

The console is beautiful. It’s a freak and it’s all the better for it. Huge console though.

Alright everyone. Put your big boy pants on and maybe take some prozac to make sure these impressions dont trigger you.

SlimySnake's Daily Dose of FUD coming right up.

Sony's marketing is absolutely delusional. When you have games like Demon Souls Remaster, Horizon 2, Spiderman 2, GT7, Ratchet and Resident Evil 8 in one show, and people come off of it underwhelmed, you have fucked up.

When you have seen the reaction to Microsoft's horrendous conference full of last gen games and indie shit no gives a shit about, you are supposed to do the complete opposite of that. Not double down. I have no idea why literally half an hour was spent on games that could've passed for switch games.

Everyone said people want to see gameplay demos from Microsoft like the ones Sony makes. Well, sony apparently doesnt make those demos anymore. The problem with not having demos is that you dont get a sense of the upgrade the CPU and the SSD would bring. Is there destruction in horizon, spiderman and demon souls? is the environment foliage interactive? are there physics? How is the SSD being utilized? Ratchet did a great job showcasing the SSD but that was literally it. If your own studios wont take advantage of the SSD, forget about third party studios. All this talk of the I/O and i swear i couldnt tell the difference. It's just prettier graphics. GT7 didnt even look that good. Sony shutdown the wrong studio because i swear DriveClub looked this good last gen.

Overall, a shockingly disappointing showing which had no business being disappointing. All they had to show was gameplay and features that make this console the biggest leap ever and they failed to do that. Their cutscene trailers didnt look as good as Microsoft's cutscene trailer either. Compare the ocean in horizon to the ocean in hellblade and its a generational difference.

MS has a great opportunity here to set the bar. Show us that next gen doesnt just mean pretty graphics, show us what makes the gameplay different. A super detailed crab isnt getting me hard anymore. i want to see hundreds of NPCs governed by that amazing CPU reacting to my actions in the world. That said, I am sure MS will fumble that too.

Apparently, showcasing games is harder than making them and these companies are fumbling over each other failing to excite us one after another.

Best Games of the Show:

- Demon Souls - absolutely stunning. it looks better than Horizon which means bluepoint has literally taken over GG as Sony's most technically advanced studio.
- Horizon - Despite the lack of gameplay, there is no denying it looks near CG at times. I wish we got to see some gameplay.
- Spiderman - From the small snippets i saw, it looked incredible.
- Ratchet - easily the best demo but there was hitching during the realm switching and that needs to be ironed out. It's clear that the ssd needs more than a second to load the next level. gameplay is more ratchet so meh. they shouldve focused on creating a demo for spiderman instead.
- Resident Evil Village - i thought this was cross gen but looked sufficiently next gen. character models were stunning.


Wait why were you angry? Does slimy snake have another FUD spreader?

I dunno man, I actually thought the announcements were great. Tons of games that looked fun.

Only disappointment is that we only got teased of next-gen gameplay like you said. I wouldn't compare Hellblade 2, a highly scripted and very likely extremely linear game, to Horizon. Horizon 2 looked outstanding.

I think Ratchet, Horizon, and Demon's Souls basically gave us hints at next-gen that I was looking for with this conference. But it was missing a really meaty next-gen gameplay demonstration. I think that, unfortunately, COVID is to blame for this. It's really going to be tough to create a vertical slice when everyone is working remotely right now.

Seems bigger then series x by volume but can’t do any calculations without some official dimensions.

At least, this time, you dont pretend to be a Sony fan anymore

Man, he's pretty smart with that analysis.

Those volumetric clouds on GT7, almost as good looking as Horizon's.

They went aggressive as fuck, and futuristic. It is growing on me quickly.

And you are correct, the 4K trailers are amazing. The stream did not do them justice.

 

[Thedtrain]

Everyone keeps saying it looks like a router

but I’m really getting a boba fett helmet vibe from it for some reason.
Anyway I kinda wanna revisit some Osiris cryptic posts. Time to dig!

 

[saintjules]

Man, he's pretty smart with that analysis.

Indeed. Always good to listen in on his thoughts - even if it's speculation.

The digital model caught me off guard a bit as I mentioned earlier. These secondary SKUs will justify Sony and MS to upsell their standard model I feel. I'm now definitely thinking $499 minimum. My theory about the discless models not working is out the window. Lockhart will be digital as well most likely.

The question now is, how much of a gap do they have in between these SKUs. Is a $100 price gap enough if there's hardware limitations? I always looked at Lockhart potentially be $299. Just being discless isn't enough to warrant the cheaper price, but I can be completely wrong in that assumption.

Either way, I am curious on the digital model specs. The wait continues.

They had years to make demos for these conferences though. 3.5 years for horizon, 2.5 for demons. i blame this squarely on sony marketing. we are what five months from launch and we have no idea what the launch lineup looks like.

the demon souls gameplay screenshots dont look too hot either. gow looked as good. now im doubting the trailer.

It looks pretty current gen to me especially compared to horizon which literally looks like a pixar movie.

Thank for sharing your personal opinion about a condole you are not buying.

Wait why were you angry? Does slimy snake have another FUD spreader?

I think they should have either shortened it and mainly just shown the first party and bigger third party stuff. It also felt sterile to me. I am sure a major part of that is the lack of an audience. I think they should have invited a small audience and presented it like a show.

Also, besides showing the console they gave almost no new info about it. I can not fathom why they didn’t give more info about it. More images of it would have been nice as well.

Finally why no mention of backward compatibility? I thought at the very beginning that’s what they were going to do. Overall a huge missed opportunity for them.

I believe I read one article said only the Blu-ray drive is absent. Performance is the same. I can’t imagine the drive cost more them 30 bucks.

I think this is a sucker punch from Sony, it could crush that laughable Lockhart before it's born with the PS5DE! Selling it at around $400 or even all the way down to $350. Remember, Sony is the or one of the inventors of blu-ray.

Mark Cerny mentioned about this teardown. I assume that's when we'll know everything about the hardware and what it will be able to do at launch in the least.

Someone said earlier that It.Is.June. - but they still have time to milk this in their marketing. Shit, I want to know it all now, but it looks like it will be a bit longer until we know it all.

People reckon about 50cm tall for PS5?

 

[saintjules]

It's clear that Sony wanted to have two events. One to reveal a tease of the games and console. Another to announce price, launch lineup, and more extended gameplay.

Sony's marketing is fine based on all the likes and views they are generating right now. This was a good substitute for E3.

I agree that Demon's Souls, I was expecting to be a bit more impressive visually from the screenshots...but the trailer looked great, so IDK...could be selective screenshots. Either way I'm going to get it.

 

[saintjules]

People reckon about 50cm tall for PS5?

Probably close to that. About 1.6 feet. That still feels a bit tall - idk.

well i hope the second event is a bit better than this. i would like to get some more info on the UI, Backward compatibility, boost mode, and some gameplay.

btw,check out the horizon gifs i edited in my post above. we have pretty much achieved pixar quality graphics. we made it.

Yea, I think Sony can take a larger loss with the PS5DE. It makes sense to me that the digital buyer would be worth more money to Sony over time. They’d have their CC connected to their account, they’d pay full price in their store etc

 

[Thedtrain]

Ratchet in 4K totally blew me away. The particle effects are nutty.

Second event will definitely show more gameplay of the launch titles, I mean it has to. I guess that's the big question though...how much will actually be ready at launch?

I hope both Ratchet and Demon's Souls make it...Maybe GT7 too, but I think that could be asking too much. I think we may only get one of those at launch.

Yeah, the Horizon trailer is absolutely insane looking. That and Ratchet were the big standouts imho.

i think ratchet and spiderman will be their only games at launch. demon is probably march and horizon is probably fall.

GT7 is like whatever. they didnt even show damage and weather.

 

[Thedtrain]

i just found out spiderman is cross gen. also on ps4. what???

i think ratchet and spiderman will be their only games at launch. demon is probably march and horizon is probably fall.

GT7 looks like it need a lot more polish. I expected a racing game, especially a GT game, to blow me away- it did not lol

 

[Ptarmiganx2]

The DualShock 4 in section is about 10cm from bottom of the handles to triggers. Assuming the DualSense is about as large, and the renders from the trailers are to scale, the PS5 should be a bit short of 40cm.

That's one big fucking router, my friends.

You know what they say about big routers...they stream seamlessly?

No idea. I think both companies are waiting for the other to go first on price and then respond accordingly. Might be a game of chicken. Who can wait the longest.

 

[B_Boss]

Either way, I am curious on the digital model specs. The wait continues.

Well Sony certainly implied that essentially, there won’t be a difference, simply no disc functionality. Seems to the only hardware difference is that one has a disc drive, the other does not. They said:

At PS5’s launch, we will offer two options: a PlayStation®5 console with an Ultra HD Blu-ray disc drive and a PlayStation®5 Digital Edition without a disc drive. The PS5 gameplay experience will be the same, so the choice is all yours.

That's probably correct. There was a rumor that said Ratchet would be ready in 2020, even said maybe mid-2020 (I guess Sony was possibly going to do an early launch..?)

it certainly looks the most complete out of all of them. I think Ratchet would be mostly good enough. Demon's Souls for Spring would be a great launch window title to look forward to. Hopefully Horizon is fall 2021.

Sony revealed a lot, but honestly....they kept a lot close to their chest. Naughty Dog, Sony Santa Monica, the new San Diego studio, the rumored Silent Hill project. Then you can take into account Bend, Ready At Dawn, etc....

The next time E3 2021 rolls around all those studios could show something.

ONE BIG DISAPPOINTMENT I HAVE THOUGH - No Killzone MP shooter I really wanted to be wowed again by a gritty KZ2 MP type shooter in next-gen fidelity.

Now I jumped down a rabbit hole of watching random YouTuber's reaction videos to the reveal of the box and some of the games. Someone pull me out!

 

[ksdixon]

PS have gotta have another big event at some point.... right?

No Batman, COD, FIFA, star wars, battlefeild, destiny/ubisoft marketing deals shown off. No big rumors like Castlevania/MGS remakes, New Crash game, Silent Hill reboot, SOCOM Remake, PS All-stars smash bros 2, TLOU2 remaster for PS5 or standalone PS5 TLOU Factions game etc.

No price, no OS menus, no news on subscription changes to PS+/PSNow like merging the two, which was rumored.

No plans announced for PC ports or crossplay/crossbuy policies. No confirm or deny on PS1/PS2/PS3 Backwards Compatability rumors.

No back buttons on controller despite recent ps4 back button addon being massively loved, and sold out. No secrets of the controller revealed (back buttons? Touchscreen? Wireless charging accessory. An "elite" version of controller?)

No rundown of the new create button and how it's different to the share button. What they've beefed up ShareFactory video editing, or SharePlay 2.0, whatever that whole "share a vertical slice of the game with your friend" thing was about.

With all of the kiddy and anime style games I literally felt like I was watching a Nintendo or MS stream for most of it. I thought they'd do one hour of that, most of the second hour on heavy hitters, and finish off with a run-through of general announcements/policy announcements and OS features and hardware.

you wont see that until after the MS first party stuff next month and i honestly dont think MS will announce it during that show

I kind of agree that all all digital was a sucker punch at Microsoft but also Sony wanting to hit that 399 price point. Now, I have no idea what the pricing scheme will be for ps5 but we know Sony likes 399. I think the Ps5 was always intended be at or around that price but manufacturing issues because of Covid and lockheart made them switch plans.

I think we’re lik looking at 399 digital Ps5 and a 499 regular edition. There’s no way there isn’t a 100 dollar difference between the Digital and regular and I can’t see Sony ever wanting to go near 599 again so I’m saying 549 max for the regular and nothing more than 449 for the digital only.

No plans announced for PC ports or crossplay/crossbuy policies. No confirm or deny on PS1/PS2/PS3 Backwards Compatability rumors.

No back buttons on controller despite recent ps4 back button addon being massively loved, and sold out. No secrets of the controller revealed (back buttons? Touchscreen? Wireless charging accessory. An "elite" version of controller?)

No rundown of the new create button and how it's different to the share button. What they've beefed up ShareFactory video editing, or SharePlay 2.0, whatever that whole "share a vertical slice of the game with your friend" thing was about.

With all of the kiddy and anime style games I literally felt like I was watching a Nintendo or MS stream for most of it. I thought they'd do one hour of that, most of the second hour on heavy hitters, and finish off with a run-through of general announcements/policy announcements and OS features and hardware.

- No ND second-team game.
- No Santa Monica new game
- I don't recall any new Studio been shown as the rumors suggested.
- No new PlayStation Network functionalities.

They have a decent amount of surprises in the Bag, now we've seen the console, and PS5 was trending on Twitter with like 6 different keywords...
The stream was watched by millions of people and already surpassed the like of the Xbox Series X reveal...

So... July is the next big date, with Xbox showing their first-party games, if they do an incredible job, PS5 will have to conquer and I don't doubt they know how to...
