Yes! Hopefully it has better fans and keeps cool easier. Please let the jet engine days be behind us. My pro has been quiet but my vanilla ps4 (and most of my friends) sounds like a rocket about to take off.

Ah yes, "a specialist developing an American game for the PS5" talking to a Russian gaming magazine, truly the most credible and reliable source imaginable.

What has piqued my interest is as to what the special feature is!
They mentioned it and no one paid notice...!??
Any ideas?

-design-wise PS5 doesn't look like Xbox Series X at all nor does it look like a smart speaker. It's a traditional console: it's a flat, square, symmetrical box with rounded edges
- at the same time PS5 is "very fat", almost twice as fat as PS4 Pro

That's a big as a speaker. So the ps5 is going to be the size of two Xbox series Xs?

These consoles are getting too much for the modern design of living rooms xD

How can they compete with the Switch when it comes to convincing your partner that it fits the decoration :D

As long as it's quiet I don't care

PS4 Pro is the loudest damn console I've ever owned - horrible fan and cooling

Still shocks me the size of that thing. I'm not even sure I have a place to store that never mind a PS5 that's probably as big

That isn't an accurate depiction since it is also much shorter from the front to the back compared to most consoles. Two PS4pros would be twice as big as the XSX in overall area. This has got to be BS.

He, would be funny if it had a display, showing download percentage progress upon recall without having to switch on the damn thing, showing framerates and GBps SSD streaming speed.

User warned: Platform wars
I love how people on here are already "looks and size doesn't matter as long as it is Sony ^-^"
Honestly it is getting to apple levels of fanboyism that Sony can do no wrong anymore.

I think that kinda stuff would just add unnecessary cost to the unit (however small). Same as the design being unique additions. It's just not mass Product producible sadly.

That's 2 or 3 conferences worth of stuff. Not buying it. Don't see Sony blowing their load at Event 1 of the new generation.

Well, the Half Life 2 Alyx/PSVR2 stuff very pointedly marks it out as bullshit also. Sony has said they will not be talking about PSVR2 around the PS5 launch, and will give breathing room between the two to avoid potentially confusing the message to consumers.

Anyone can write any kind of rumours, that are more or less credible on the face of it, but have nothing behind them. We should definitely skeptically scrutinise all this kind of stuff.

Unless it is as big as a small drawer I don't mind. I actually would welcome a cool and quiet Playstation 5 and the place where I'd put it is (where I currently have my PS4) is big enough to fit a console 4x the size of the PS4.

So I would be very happy if those rumors of a big PS5 with advanced cooling system are true. I am somewhat sensitive to noise and my PS4 was a pain in some games.

I stopped caring how consoles look. As long as they're silent and durable. The Pro sucks, I got used to the noise for better or worse but can't wait to replace it.

Can't see them not showing the console this coming Thursday. Once you open up the floodgates, that I do is going to leak. If Sony is worried about stuff leaking, then just show the bloody thing.

It's gonna end up being that they put a full Noctua NHD15 in there for their heat solution

I hope it looks weird as fuck like consoles are supposed to.

If it's boxy enough for it to be possible to put other stuff on top of it I'm going to be very dissapointed.

Bonus points if it has an A.I built in with a sexy name like Yuna that also has an emoji face screen on the front of the console like GERTY in that Moon film.

Seems fake to me because it's unlikely that external developers have seen the console.
When Sony shipped the DualSense to developers they announced the controller to avoid leaks.
Seems logic to me that they will showcase the console design when the retail units go into mass production and are shipped to developers to try their games outside of a devkit environment. Which should be in June in any case.

It'll be a big black/white box I look at for a few minutes before it gets tucked away in the cabinet. As long as the front of it doesn't look hideous I'm fine with whatever.
