Sledgstone 8,672 Report post Posted January 13, 2020 Until we get solid info from Sony, theres only speculation so far about the final list of features, prices, etc. The latest rumor I just read was this: https://bgr.com/2020/01/13/ps5-release-date-price-announcement-and-preorder-details-leaked/ If true the price will be $499 and be available for preorder early February. And there will be full backwards compatibility with digitally owned games. And ps4 controllers will be forward compatible, which would explain that new extra back button attachment that was announced. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeathscytheX 9,732 Report post Posted January 14, 2020 If they announce this event I'll ask off just so I can preorder. Otherwise I'll get in trouble at work for refreshing the amazon search. 🙄Fucking Ebay scalpers are going to be in full force. One touch amazon purchasing is the best thing ever. I remember the days of frantically typing in your credit card number hoping to get one before the bots purchased everything. 1 Sledgstone reacted to this Quote GET A NEW FUNK ON BEFORE YOU GET DUMPED ON!

DeathscytheX 9,732 Report post Posted March 18, 2020 No reveal on what it looks like, but TmarTn has you covered because the 52 min video was boring and the guys talking were weird. 1 Sledgstone reacted to this Quote GET A NEW FUNK ON BEFORE YOU GET DUMPED ON!

Sledgstone 8,672 Report post Posted March 19, 2020 I'm so glad I skipped on watching that PS5 reveal guy talk. The PS5 looks a bit underpowered compared to the series X, but I bet thats because they'll be making a PS5 Pro after a year thats more powerful. But those load times are nice. I'll be sticking with playstation. They'll have too many exclusives that I'll want. God of War, FFVII, backwards compatibility with my existing game collection, etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DeathscytheX 9,732 Report post Posted April 4, 2020 Video won't play on my phone, but if it's about the overheating, its already been debunked. Jason Schreier called out the source on twitter and referenced every false negative rumor they've ever tweeted about playstation. Quote GET A NEW FUNK ON BEFORE YOU GET DUMPED ON!

Sledgstone 8,672 Report post Posted April 8, 2020 It looks nice a sleek but I don't like all that white. I bet the controller will look permanently dirty with wear marks within a month of me owning it with my sweaty hands. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeathscytheX 9,732 Report post Posted April 8, 2020 Yeah my 360 controllers were always looking grungy back in the day. hopefully there are color options. My main gripe is that they didn't show the back of the controller. It obviously has buttons back there, or else there would have been no issue showing it. Instead we got the ole "We'll show you more later" at the end. Quote GET A NEW FUNK ON BEFORE YOU GET DUMPED ON! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't get why they didn't show it off. Odd. I hope the controller comes in a dark blue/black or all black variation. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Myk JL 1,731 Report post Posted June 11, 2020 I'd probably buy the digital only model if I weren't more likely to buy an 8KTV. 1 Sledgstone reacted to this Quote Those who fight deplorables should see to it that they themselves do not become deplorables.

Sledgstone 8,672 Report post Posted June 12, 2020 I'd definitely go for a digital only.. but if that disk drive is a 4k bluray player I'd rather get that since I still don't own a 4k bluray player yet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Strider Hiryu 2,704 Report post Posted June 12, 2020 Two versions is nice especially for people who no longer buy physical media. I'll still grab the disc drive version because 1) my PS4 acts as my BD player since I gave my other one to my parents and 2) I'm still not a fan of digital only media and prefer to actually own my games, not a license to play the game (that can be taken away at any time for any reason). What is with the obsession for back buttons? Quite honestly see no point in them but then again I'm moving more toward PC gaming now-a-days and rarely pick up a controller anymore.

DeathscytheX 9,732 Report post Posted June 12, 2020 Its mainly for shooters. With the jump and reload buttons on the back, you never have to take your fingers off the sticks. I have a custom modded controller for this, and it's pretty expensive. When I played Overwatch, this was an extreme advantage to have when playing Lucio. Once you get use to it, you wonder why every controller doesn't just have the back buttons. Quote GET A NEW FUNK ON BEFORE YOU GET DUMPED ON! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

slippers 3,168 Report post Posted June 22, 2020 eh..i dont order anything above $200 from online. i know itll be hard but ill just wait until it reaches retail stores. i eventually gave up on getting Wii back when lol. i couldnt find that thing anywhere for years. waiting can be good though, it gives time to release better titles. i remember when my brother got his ps4 on its release day..there were only like 2 interesting games out and he was so bored with it. and then they started to re-release ps3 games to ps4 and i was thinking so ppl buy ps4 to play ps3 games..that just seemed pointless.
