PlayStation 5: Thread 05

[Neon Ignition]

What i think doesn't help is it doesn't feel like these systems have been out that long or are bedded in properly, The ps3 was Dead and Buried at this point in the ps4's life cycle with support for it drying up very quickly. If either Microsoft or Sony where to release a pro system now i don't think it would be well received by consumers with the current ongoing financial insecurity around the world.

Yep, it's similar to the PC GPU arena. Because cross gen bears such an impact you have a market that has an eyeball on the RTX50XX generation of cards being the horizon whilst the RTX30XX, in many cases RTX20XX aren't really being strained that hard. A lot of high priced hardware for software that is ten steps behind

I didn't realize they had reduced the size so much, i thought it was just a new update with a removable cover to add a disk drive.

I like the new design, definitely less bulky, looks elegant and gives a good impression of being smaller; but it's quite deceptive. Considering the original is lifted about half an inch on its higher base, the Slim is only about, what?...an inch shorter. And not much off across the width either along the disk section, even though the 'waist' is slimmer.

its a unoffical render not an official Sony image so take it with a pinch of salt, they used official imagery and it looks like they matched the two based on controller size and the disk drive port.

Spider-Man Playstation fans, get ready to play even more epic Spider-Mans. Looking forward to it!!

Seeing a massive push on this (billboards, TV ads, ect) we are watching Brassic on sky at the moment and cant get away form the overly CGI (not in game footage) ad.

Wont be picking it up till nearer Christmas though as my son has requested it for a Christmas present.

[teddymeow]

The way Insomniac are releasing games they'll soon have put out more AAA than all of Xbox Game Studios put together!

Haven't seen a game ship like this in a while





I've already seen it correctly stated that it's a sad day when a games company feels the need to trumpet that consumers will be recieving the product they have paid £70 for when buying physical media. Good on Insomniac though as there's clearly no requirement to have made a point of this.

Just as Miles recieved his own spin-off, Spider-Man 2 could potentially lead to the making of Spider-Man: Venom

[Neon Ignition]

Spider-Man 2 has often felt like it didn't look that much better, likely because the setting is mostly the same as the last game. Video comparisons though highlight some key improvements




Only incidental detail seems to have been nipped and tucked

[fishbowlhead]

Can't wait to play this tonight, and it will be tonight, because i wont have to wait for a 100gig day1 patch just to make the disk a working drinks coaster. Though there is a day1 patch apparently already with some improvements.
