They'll be pissing in the wind mate - Sony will be going for the throat in Thursday.
Sony just need to show gameplay to negate any negativity. And I reckon they'll show lots of gameplay.
A consol reveal will be the icing on the cake, opening preorders would be lights out for ms.
I'm taking a day off, 6am Friday morning in Aus. We ain't busy - so why not?
I'm very excited to see PS5 games.
The transfer rates should exponentially faster that we have today. I can see a problem.
chronoforce - Star Citizen - what's it at now 300million? When will it release? Do you think by the time it releases it'll still be exclusive? I can't see it releasing for another 5+ yrs.
Nearly another console gen.
What sort of PC will run Star Citizen? How many of those PC's are in the wild?
Like I said, and it will always be the case - PC gaming is a pissing contest. The PC I built is basically a Web browser, I don&...
ms has been showing series x for months? A teaser trailer of a game 2 yrs away (minimum) and the console. Let's not even mention the last event they held - no matter how hyped and animated Aaron Greenburg was.
When you break it down they've shown bugger all.
I'm sure Sony had been feeling the heat.
Lore - Seems the gaming world wants PS5 and the new games it will offer.
Remember how excited xbox fans got when they showed HB2. Do you really think PS5 launch titles won't look like that? Be prepared to be shocked.
On the otherside - we have old games on our NEW machine. AND you dont even need our new machine to play our new 'not-exclusive' games.
Which one do you think will sell?
And it will be $499US...
oakshin - OK mate, I'm also old - have been gaming for 38yrs. Your condescension for an adult shows you think quite highly of yourself.
Read your post and my reply - and it will all make sense.
Give credit where credit is due, Sony has clearly been the best of the 3 - consistently.
That's because they always do something 'special' - be it creating a new ip, reinventing an existing ip or just releasing quality sequels to beloved franchises.
They are the industry standard.
PC never has and never will. The games are so unoptimised they rely on mods - get some high-end AAA exclusives then you can talk.
No one is willing to do that, that's a sad fact of PC gaming. Expensive hardware who's potential is not even close to be achieved.
What's that - another card getting released? Another CPU?
You can keep the pissing contest called PC gaming.
I use it to scan through videos when making ShareFactory clips.
Jim Ryan is newly appointed, he was in charge in Europe - but he still hasn't earned the greater PS communities trust yet.
Statements are just that, you need to back them up. So far it's all been positive but next week has to be a watermark moment in PlayStation history.
As people have said PS5 is BC, but also PS2 was BC with PS1, PS3 at launch was BC with PS2.
Sonybsaw that it was a feature rarely used, and as the PS3 was very...
The silence will be deafening. If they do pipe up, it will just look like another - What about us? moment.
Chris - PS5 has the shortest Time To Triangle of any PS console, the need for highly optimised engines to negate memory and bandwidth deficiencies are all but gone now.
Getting amazing looking games up and running is a lot easier now. For both consoles.
But Sony is pushing that for PS5 110% - md is trying to be a PC. That's not pro-consumer, that's holding back innovation on your new console.
Awesome polishing turds - just concentrate on new games for my new purchase ms.
Use that extra GPU power for the good of gaming - new ips for a new console.
It's just a 'positive' bullet point for ms to shout from the rooftops.
Sony consoles generally have a 10yr life - even in the final year of PS4 we've had 2 NEW ips and a 3rd potentially GOTG released/releasing.
In contrast ms dropped support for ...
I think Project Awakening will be announced for PS5, also a new KILLZONE. I'd love to see MAG as I think Sony could really do wonders with it now that technology has caught up. If GG don't announce KZ I think it'll be SOCOM.
All the sequels people are requesting ie Spiderman 2, GOW2, HZD2 probably wont make launch day or window. I think BLOODBORNE 2 has a chance, but that is dependent on if BuePoint are doing Demons Souls, if so we won't see BB2. And maybe T...
Probably Silent Hill - at least I hope it is.
KilluaX3 - Seems you're dirty PC doesn't get any AAA exclusives worth worrying about haha.
Enjoy HZD when it releases mate.
Silent Hill is being workd on by Sony Japan I'm pretty sure.
I'd say 100+million potential customers is a big enough audience. BluePoint would flourish under Sony.
alb1899 - It implies that they were technically very solid upon release.
The games Sony releases at launch on PS5 will likely be the same.
But let's not split hairs - at the end of the day Sony 1st parties are competing amongst themselves.
WWS will show what next gen consoles are about. And Thursday is when it all starts.
