Yeah they are just celebrating PS4 and PSVR games, which going by my math actually means that no announcement of the PS5 takes places before or during that. If it were to happen they would include PS5, because they already did so on their twitter account. They officially acknowledged the PS5 exists, but not for the TGS.
This is probably just a small thing for visitors.
My gosh people , this lack of concrete news has given y'all some sort of brain disease. Maybe take a deep breath and step away from the hype train for a couple days. You'll all wind up getting so hyped that whenever this event finally happens it'll be a colossal let down.
The most hilarious outcome would be if there was no "Killzone: Shadow Fall" moment and next-gen graphics are actually disappointing.
You could have voted "later".
There would have been so much disappointment.
I think 90% of the people here are just messing about, it happens when it happens.
Nah, it's always been an admin.
Anyway I checked out Lintend and as far as I can tell it's complete speculation at this point.
With regards to potential PS5 reveal:
While listening to the latest Easy Allies podcast, they referenced Shawn Layden's interview with CNET pertaining to not attenting E3 2018. This bit seems intriguing:
Edit: Link
Now, if retailers are indeed needed to informed by February about pricing and other relevant matters so as to start the world-wide logistical chain of events for release during "Christmas holiday", it stands to reason that the probability of leaks skyrockets next months and thus it is in the best interest of Sony to reveal the relevant bits of the console before disseminating that information to the retailers.
In my book, it is.

The domain for the PlayStation Meeting is/was http://playstationmeeting.com/. I check the WHOIS for the domain daily to see if any updates happen. At time of writing, this is the information (via Network Solutions):
The domain does not appear to work at the moment (I get a failed:net::ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT status message in Chrome). Why it was updated on May 1, 2019 I do not know.
2013 I believe was the most recent year the domain was used for PlayStation Meeting. Whether it will be used for PlayStation Meeting 2020 I do not know, but considering Sony still holds on to it there's at least nothing hindering them from utilizing the site to unveil PS5.

I am not saying that you are onto something, but I definitely do like your line of thinking here !
I wonder how the power of the new consoles will divide the market again. At the beginning of the last generation, almost all X-Box 360 buddies of mine switched to PS4 because of "more power" to play their FIFA. All PS3 buddies switched to PS4 of course.
If Microsoft's machine should be stronger this time, I wonder if it will also work the other way around.
Colbert Wie findest Du die österreichischen Biere? Ich steh' auf Edelweiss Weizenbier. Beste.

What makes this even more interesting is that they [Sony] won't be hosting Destination PlayStation this year.
Oh my! You think that Microsoft is losing by adding potentially more consumers by pushing games on Steam?
My argument was simple, extremely so. That is that Microsoft's business model is not solely centered around selling consoles but expanding their business model to PC, and eventually mobile, tablets etc via streaming. Microsoft does not care where you get their first party games at, so long as you have Live/Game Pass account, you are their client. That is the ecosystem, and they don't care whether they lose some money to other storefronts in order to get more consumers on board. If you cannot understand this, then I fail to see why it is you are even debating with me seeing that even Sony is starting to trend in that direction.
The people who cannot see this are those who still imagine that an ecosystem is a piece of plastic box.
And what does it cost them to put their games on Steam? They already have those games on Windows Store. Pushing Steam, Epic Store or others is simply laying a bigger canvas on which they can paint. This isn't me being purposely obtuse as you call it, it is simply you taking what is a rather simple statement and running with it to mean whatever it is you imagine it is.
What is strange is that you were not only debating some time back that trade conferences are not the right place to announce studio acquisitions, you are now trying to argue that a business trying to make money by expanding its ecosystem is what? Come on man.
Many if them we
Many of them were stealth account plants by companies. Someone when correct this but I think Microsoft had some folks in there to.
I mean by far the most of this thread has been about speculating on miner details. And the placement does fit in with people's expectations, so not surprising people are grasping at straws.
Liabe Brave do you think the way ps pro does BC by turning off half the CUs affects the likely layout of ps5? If they have 18CU active for PS4-> 36CU for ps5 pro -> ? For PS5. Is it not logical to be a multiple of 18 or some other multiple? How are you coming to your choice of 48? 18-36-48 doesn't immediately scan as a progression?
right - but what leaks? In 2013 there would be a risk they leak the name and some basic info. This time around the basic info that retailers would have, has already been shared via wired - cpu/Navi/RT/controller/name/logo. Only 'retailer' things left are the box which is difficult to leak, and games - which Sony didn't really show in 2013 until June anyway
so although I still think it'll be feb, destination PlayStation isn't a major reason why IMO.
There was beer conversation not so long ago, let us play with this.
Sony main focus is VR with eye tracking, foveated rendering and virtual localization of sound (great for VR). Nearly 40 patents about VR tech, no single about RT or VRS.
Playstation "secret sauce" is best VR experience.
Xbox "secret sauce" is VRS and RT
Foveated rendering is just a way to draw less detailed things in places you won't notice them - basically VRS. I think someone posted a patent application from Cerny a few pages ago which sounded like sony's approach to VRS
Sony have 30 patents about foveated rendering for PS5. This is much more than "less detailed pixels"
Damn I hope we get a Xbox event next month too. I mean if retailers must be notified, makes sense
Indeed. Foveated rendering is just another dynamic LOD method, of which VRS is one as well.
Tom Warren says the Xbox event isn't until Spring. He also says it's before E3, but whether that's March or May is anyone's guess.
It'd be super lame to wait that long. If we have to they should at least start talking about Halo Infinite so we can get the first flight in March.
