Definitely a Dev machine, a lot of QA and development are being done from home and this is likely from a package for that. It's 100% without a doubt real.

The boot time isn't that bad if it's a dev unit and/or booting up from a powered down state instead of standby. Could still be a fake.

Dude said he had 5 minutes of footage.

Kena developers said 2 seconds from cold boot to game
Someone is fibbing
Yeah, your memory
The information comes courtesy of Game Informer magazine: "In practice, we watched as Kena: Bridge of Spirits was launched from the PS5 system menu," the publication reports. "It took about two seconds.

Kena: Bridge of Spirits Takes Two Seconds to Boot on PS5

About as long as it takes to read this sentence

We're really starting to talk about disappointing start up times when we don't even know if this is an old devkit or anything?

But Sony really needs to come out and do something now. At least be in control of your own narratives.

It's the same boring iPhone-style silent white logo on black screen we already got on PS4 and even on Switch, bummer.

it's funny that you can clearly see how long the whole video is and that he was just sent the first 20 seconds. probably wants him to pay even more for the rest.

If this is real. What a failure by Sony to hold off on showing this so long that it now gets leaked in parts and you can't control the narrative and explain things well. Very stupid of them.

Wow at 100 euros. Thanks for taking one for the world. Sony might as well show us the entire thing. I was expecting a faster boot up. Perhaps this is from a cold boot (hopefully).

If it is real, it's a tiny bit longer than the Series X from cold boot, which seems strange?

Not really, when if the PS5 SSD is a lot faster, if the Series X's OS is lighter or better designed, it could still boot faster than the PS5.

People are drowning in a glass of water here, that seemed plenty fast to me. Definitely a lot faster than what we have now.

Fake - controller is lit blue before it's turned on. Also they stopped epilepsy warning messages everytime. It's a message now hidden in the settings.

This is probably a cold boot since it's asking for a profile. On PS4 when you turn on the console from stand by it goes directly to the last profile active.

It's also showing health warning which only shows from cold boot on PS4.

Wish Sony themselves would show anything. The more that's "leaked" of this bad boy the more I swerve into meh territory and wanna cancel. I know that shouldn't be based on a UI but the fact it ends at the login, took so long, and the intro just being the most boring basic shit ever has me feeling meh
