Sony PlayStation 5 : Play Has No Limits

PS5 Release Date, PS5 Games, PS5 Power vs Xbox One X, PS5 Price Speculation - All the PS5 Info lets discuss



Here are all the rumors and speculation surrounding the PS5, including a potential PS5 release date, power, and launch games of Sony's inevitable PS5. Is the PS5 releasing in 2019?


What we Want From the PS5 Speculation aside, what would we ideally want from the PS5? Backwards compatibility for PS4 games would be brilliant, simply because you'd be able to carry over classics like the Shadow of the Colossus remake to the next console generation. We've seen how well Microsoft is handling backwards compatibility with its Xbox One consoles (including getting amazing results updating Xbox 360 games to run in 4K on Xbox One X), and something similar on PS5 would be great.

In terms of pure power, the PlayStation 5 has to significantly exceed the power of the Xbox One X. This means featuring more games running in 4K at 60FPS. If the PS5 can deliver about 10 TF of power we'd be happy, as this would allow devs to create games that look a generation ahead of what we've got now.

But what would the dream launch lineup be for the PS5? Death Stranding and The Last of Us: Part 2 are hugely anticipated blockbuster games, with the former especially looking to push the performance of whatever system it's on to the very limit. We've also mentioned Ghost of Tsushima and a sequel to Horizon Zero Dawn, and the latter would be the perfect way to kick off a new console cycle from Sony.

A majority of games map X and Circle based on their own region independent of the console, but there are some that use the console's region. OS navigation is also tied to the console region.
Shit.... The muscle memory of pressing X on everything is going to be really hard to forget....

Asian and Japanese PS4s have the default X button action mapped to Circle. Not sure if that'll be the case with PS5 as well, but hopefully there are some accessibility settings available to fix this.
You can remap every button on the PS4 OS level settings, don't see any reason why it also won't let you do the same on the PS5. This shouldn't be an issue.

The problem with the OS workaround is that it doesn't just alter the button layout for prompts (Ok/Quit) but also the actual in-game controls. Ideally, what one needs is a way to switch X and Circle functionality only for menu prompts etc.

Uh-oh the black portion looks like it's glossy aka prone to scratches.
Yes, I much prefer matt finish on consoles myself, glossy (and the rest of it is white on top of it) means it will be a fingerprint and dust magnet unless taken care of very thoroughly.

PS5's available storage is 660.7GB (OS is 104 GB, Astro's Playroom is 2.4GB).

Works for me. Should be able to keep 7-10 games installed, with the rest archived to a portable drive.

XSX 1TB = 930GiB (final storage is 802 meaning OS is 128)
PS5 825GB = 768 GiB (final storage 664 meaning OS is 104)

NASA is going to use XBSX's 1 TB SSD for their Mars mission, so obviously 825 GB SSD sucks. Alternatively, MS fanboys are saying that XBSS is a useless piece of shit with its 500 gigs. Well, if you say so. 🤷‍♂️

    I dont think games have looked any better since 2019 onwards and they are performing worse and worse. Game developers have really dropped the ball.

    So while Playing Control, I found a journal which said that a bathroom is missing in Islamabad Beurue of Control. With Alan Wake and Control seems to be connected worlds. Even our city is in the universe as well. No wonder those Trail 5 and Trail 6 are haunted.
    did you know you can see @NaNoW credited in the game too ? :p

    What is peoples obsession with Battle Royale genre. 6 minutes to find a match, 3 minutes to setup a match, 2 minutes to land, 10 minutes for scavanging maybe 2 3 gunfigts and its over. Multiplayer landscape is looking absolute dogshit.
    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.

    I usually stay away from animes. Vinland saga changed the way i look at my life, and my experiences within. I recommend every breathing human being to watch this animated masterpiece at least once fromstart to finish.
    After I watched it, I never felt like i watched a show. It was a friggin journey. I got way too attached to Thorfinn and seeing him grow up and find himself and get rid of all the negativity inside of him was just pure bliss.

    With how great cod warzone has translated onto mobile. Mainstream Consoles have lost its value even further. Maybe console gaming was associated with TVs and how TV is not the primary source of media consumption anymore, consoles will lose its 200 million core audiences even further.
