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.

Definitely right bro.

I just sold off my PS4 Pro, so I'm looking to replace it with PS5 soon. If you don't mind me asking what are your plans for purchasing a next-gen system?

PS5 Backward Compatibility With PS4 Games Less Complete Than Sony Promised


A new list of PlayStation 4 games incompatible with the PlayStation 5 has surfaced, casting more doubts on Sony's backward compatibility efforts.


Hands-on testing with the PlayStation 5 by fans has revealed a handful of additional PlayStation 4 games that aren't backwards compatible with the brand-new PlayStation 5. Sony's console is more or less intended to be able to play the entire previous generation of PlayStation games, but the company's implementation of backward compatibility is more scattershot than its Xbox Series X/S competition. Players can install the PS4 and PS5 versions of cross-gen games, but there's no platform-level save transfer between them. Also, Sony previously confirmed that a small number of PS4 titles don't work on the new hardware, but Sony's careful language suggested that the list of compatible games wasn't exhaustive, which seems to have been precisely the case. By comparison, the Xbox Series X runs every Xbox One game that doesn't require the Kinect sensor, as well as around half of the Xbox 360 library and a strong collection of original Xbox titles. Both consoles claim to boost performance on older games, but Xbox's technology has seen players marvel at the improvements to some of their favorites. Increased frame rates, slashed loading screens, and more comes for free for almost every backward compatible game, and the console also adds HDR support to hundreds of games created before the technology was even on the market. For now, Xbox's massive supported library is one of its most enticing features, and the PlayStation 5 is just catching up in that regard.

ThisGenGaming took the PlayStation 5 out for a spin with a massive library of PlayStation 4 titles and came up with six new titles that won't load on the new machine. These include Pool Nation, Tower of Time, The Gardens Between, PixelBOT Extreme!, YIIK: A Postmodern RPG, and PSVR title Golem. ThisGenGaming also reports that the team behind PixelBOT EXTREME! were notified about the incompatibility and fixed the problem on their end. This suggests that many of these left-behind games could get PS5 support in the future if the developers are able to tweak the settings on their end.



For each of the titles that were discovered to not work, the PlayStation Store warns potential purchasers that the older PS4 is required to load them up. This suggests that Sony does have a rough idea of the full list of incompatible titles. As of now, the company's official support page has not been updated for these new titles, but their store pages have the same warning as games previously known to be incompatible, like Joe's Diner and Shadwen. The moral of the story is that it may be worth double-checking the PlayStation Store website before planning to load into a PS4 game, just in case its been left in the PS5's dust.

For all its troubles, it's still overall a new positive that PlayStation 5 owners can effortlessly play the vast majority of PlayStation 4 games on their new console. The video game industry is beyond the point where each new piece of hardware must be a brick wall preventing software purchases from going forward. Games need to live beyond a scant few years on the market in order to be preserved for future generations and to keep smaller studios in the industry longer. Even if a game doesn't run perfectly on a new machine, it's always better than abandoning it in the dustbin of history.


The PlayStation 5 is available now.

Thanks man!

Spiderman: Miles Morales and Sackboy A Big Adventure later down the line.
I spent all of my savings on securing one xD

Not picking up Demon's Souls since I'm not a fan of the genre.

Next year is quite jam packed and RE8 is on top of my must play lists from next year. Reason for securing PS5 quite early.

4K and damn near locked 60 FPS. Whew lads, PS5 BC makes already technically impressive PS4 games stand out even more.

To be fair the game even on a PS4 is in so much of a better state than launch. Testament to Bend Studio's continued support for it.
