Really curious what DF analysis will say about that, since all announced game specs so far show no difference, and we don't have gameplay from XSX to compare.

It's literally the one thing that bugs me about the hype for 120FPS games. I know that some people will enjoy that framerate but alot of games are going to look like garbage when they run that way. But as long as it's an option it doesn't really bother me.

Thats all I hope for is the option for pretty or for speed.
Games like that I will take those level of graphics for 120

But in literal terms it has a smaller power supply. A power narrative that isn't some form of false advertising surely needs to use more power, no?
Not if it's within normal specifications, no. Now, if you go with an aggressive overclock you're going to need a bigger PSU and a huge case. That's not even a knock on the PS5, but SmartShift is meant to increase the efficiency of any given power budget, the fact they still need a unit as big as the PS5 clearly demonstrates how far outside the sweet spot they are. Looks like the new AMD cards are going to be twice the size of the 3090.

So, Brazilians are not the only ones paying two consoles for just one? I feel you, pal.
Edit: calculation was wrong, more like near $600, Brazilians still the most screwed.

No he read Qatari Rials and he's been used to Omani Rials so far in my posts. Official price here is $559 for PS5 and $442 for PS5 DE. PS4 and PS4 Pro released for $470 back then. Funnily, PS4 Pro is probably still today at $470 (bundled with games).

After getting a PS5 DE and Pulse 3d, I was worried there wouldn't be much left in my wallet for the games, but I found out I could use my credit card mileage to get PS Store credits, just enough for MM and DS. Hooray!!

Amazon UK PS5 #1
Speaking of PS, Sony has made the gift cards region agnostic!
Amazon.com: $50 PlayStation Store Gift Card [Digital Code]: Video Games
Buy $50 PlayStation Store Gift Card [Digital Code]: Read Everything Else Reviews - Amazon.com
www.amazon.com
Noice, now I'll buy them from there.

I Just cant wait to put my hands on a DualSense even If meant playing only astrobot
That PsPlus Collection for Future PS5 owners is awesome for me
Edit: decidi investir pouco mais pra pegar em disco pois além de ser mais difícil encontrar na versão digital, a versão com leitor saiu "só" 250 mais caro em relação ao preço original da digital e com 200 de cashback na magazine, então só 50 mais caro

There's a scrolling view of that statue in the trailer but I think you're right....no specific shot with the player character standing there in front of it.
I don't think this was in the trailer.

I'm really surprised at how clean the game looks.

Good day to you! IIRC you had commented on the subject of Sony moneyhatting content prior to the last PS5 event. Was FF16 THE huge moneyhat everyone was talking about prior to the show, or is there still something potentially even bigger?

unfortunately that TV is sold out already. Not sure if Sony will restock it or just make next years model.
Bo_Hazem

It will restock, indeed. We just got it in our market recently. It's being sold for 3399 UAE dirhams ($925 USD) in UAE, it came here very late though, not everywhere. Still waiting for it around my city. It's Sony's Joker card, so I expect them to make much more.

Well, I WONDERED how in the FUCK all the units got sold thru so quickly when they went "live" early but at like 3AM US Time. This makes more sense.
Besides Sony's email invite list I wish they would have let it go like in the past. For the PS4, my local GameStop had an "interest" sheet and then when it got time close to the reveal offered a pre-sign up for the pre-ordering. You could put a deposit down and guarantee your place in line, which I did, and then the thing got ordered and I just picked it up on the day of release. They had a couple of cops there for security, oddly enough given the area, but it went smoothly.
I don't know what the answer is to all of this other than to say NOT THE WAY IT WENT! I got my pre-order but only because of the Sony e-vite. I have no idea if I'd have one pre-ordered now if it weren't for that. I haven't seen any availability or even gotten an EMAIL from Amazon, Best Buy or Walmart even though I signed up with their little thing to be sent an email when availability changed...so go figure. Anyone else get notification emails of stock from retailers?
Again though I have to ask...what if this was a marketing move? What if Sony only allocated VERY small amounts to retailers so far JUST SO that they'd sell out even quicker than normal? That would then let the Sony 'e-vite' people feel very lucky and special to get their pre-order in and whip everyone else up into a panic thinking there's NO WAY you'll get a PS5 this time. Then they quietly up the allocations to retailers tomorrow with the expected amounts available and let "normal" pre-ordering resume? Think about it...they'd have really panicked or whipped up even more interest in the product and gotten a lot of people to the state where they will pull the trigger on a buy as SOON as they see they can.

It's pretty simple, really. They've just made a decent sized library of free games part of PS Plus. So all PS Plus subscribers will have access to those titles. Probably will add titles as things progress, probably start adding those three monthly games to the list, I'd imagine? Over time some may drop off if they can tell no one's using a title. But basically it's just a good idea. Giving people a ready library of some pretty good games that they can access from day 1 with any console.

He simply hopes that consoles won't be able to do RT at higher resolutions at 60 fps based on a single game/engine, PC master race insecurities and such..

I don't think that, It's most likely they're sending them in batches. Personally, not worried at all about my PS5 day one, or few days later. But the preorders are overwhelming, and people here have eaten up PS4/PS4 Pro during the pandemic, so imagine what they should do to a massively superior console closer to the current prices of PS4 Pro's!

What do you think will sale more Switch or Xbox Series in the complete holiday season?

Xbox Series X and Series S will sell like hotcakes. New gen of consoles and the fact you can finance them also with Gamepass and Xbox gold included. All access will be big for Xbox for the first year of two. With rumors of a new switch launching next year I think will hurt its sales slightly.
Metroiddarks

I am not saying not but did you see the sales of Switch? the last months are around 400 k per week.
If Switch have big IP for this holiday season then I will include PS5 in the question.
I wish MS would get all these games up and running on the XSeX, until the games are running on the box there's nothing to compare. or maybe potential numbers are better to some ppl than actually seeing the thing running on the box

Things are getting juicy, apparently MLiD got the "secret PS5 title that Mark Cerny is working on" from RedGamingTech, MLiD said the same source was the one who told him about God of War teaser and other stuff such as the Fable teaser at the Xbox event.
Interesting that RGT never leaked this himself, he has on several occasions hinted that he indeed knew about this stuff, even the God of War teaser which was shown at the PS5 showcase, which I know through my own interactions with him. Curious as to why he never fully leaked it himself, he does often mention he doesn't want to leak information because he could get his sources into trouble and I think he wants to ensure his channel remains "tech and hardware" related rather than focusing on other news and game leaks etc like Foxy or MBG
Interestingly enough, when MLiD did leak that the God of War teaser was being shown as well the title Mark Cerny is working on, Matt Hargett got mad at him on Twitter and said he would stop supporting MLiD's channel. Matt who is also really good friends with Paul (RGT).

Yeah, it looks AMAZING. If they've cleaned up combat to me more like DS 3....this is going to be AWESOME.

So what would be the graphical showpiece for each next gen system at launch,would demon souls be ps5 or miles morales?

Demon's Souls. Nothing else is close. Xbox has nothing like it. For Switch I'd say its Pokemon Smile.

Wouldn’t be surprised if a live GoW Ragnarok gameplay demo is shown off at the VGA’s. Really hoping it’s only being made for PS5.

So far Demon Souls PS5 and Horizon Forbidden west, graphics looks we have never seen before, both looks like CGI cutscenes. Miles Morales, however looks great but nothing mind blowing like those 2.

Seems like it, now the big question is what is the other big launch exclusive which Sony have not yet revealed?
The only details MLiD dropped was that Mark Cerny was working on it and that "it is a revival of a mainstay of Playstation, one that used to be a bigger franchise".
Jak remake?

I think the black ones look better then the White PS5s. Yet I find hard to believe Sony Wouldn’t announce Black or special editions of PS5 before pre orders started. But I could be wrong. I just don’t think it makes a lot of business sense to do that and not do it at launch.
