Hopefully that means less remaster/rewhatever and more new games. Who am I kidding, it's gonna be all cross-gen and remasters.
Im trying to stay optimistic with the haptics but i currently dont enjoy any form of haptics on any system. Turn them off immediately. So have my doubts that I will find the new version useful/enjoyable
I am still disagree with you on that. Yes, real world is more shiny than what game tends to represents, but the effect in Control is still too much, especially on matte surface like concrete.
The thing is, there is a big impact between the viewing angle and reflexion. For exemple, in my office, this is a wood flooring. If the viewing angle between me, the floor, and the object is close to 90°, almost no reflexion. But if I do the same thing while crouching, I can see the reflexion becoming more apparent. If I lie down (while managing not to be seen by my coworkers), so the angle is almost 0°, this is a reflexion fest.
But I don't think RT managed that and this is why it is a reflexion fest not matter what is the angle.
Yeah haptics tend to be a "deja vu" scenario as we've heard the same marketing for almost every rumble advancement over the years.
But personally I don't turn them off, and do have some hope that they really will wow me so we'll see.
Should be USB-C no?Here is another look. The USB Port seems different..
Really eh. I like the feel of the Switch Pro controller but not the over all look. Looked very MadCatz.
I love DS4 controller. I hope they don't change much for DS5 and that apparent leak image is real.
I love Xbox One controller as well. Sits so well. So glad they didn't change much on Series X controller but heard they are making it smaller. Not sure how I feel about that.
is there a reason the back vents are only limited to the bottom? i would have assumed the more vents the better, but i'm guessing its so that air flow is better directed (ie, to avoid pulling in hot air)?
That's a fair take. I don't really disagree at a macro level, and my personal bet would also be that PS5 is closer to 12 than 9.
But to be clear, the only precedent we have for a $200 price gap is the gen when Sony got roasted for their high price and MS quadrupled their share. If Lock really comes in at $299 and PS5 is at $499, I would consider no significant change in market share to be the bigger surprise.
I agree and believe strongly that if PS5 is confirmed 12TF+ $499, MS will be the ones holding the biggest party the next day. They would love for their biggest competitor to limit their own audience to enthusiasts for as long as possible.
PHEWWhen your end of the generation looks like...
Also these threads just keep FLYING, omg do yall really read 200+ pages everytime one closes?? Jeez....
Thank you for the reply. :)
Sounds like this whole process could be done on any Zen/Navi combination Sony may use. But how will Microsoft do this?
I'm not really picking up on any anti-PlayStation vibes... If anything, the majority of this thread is (overall very positive) discussion of the PS5. There also isn't as much talk of Xbox, comparatively.

Nah just read the OT and move to last page. Anything important would be quoted.
There are some Playstation fans who are really want more info and are mad and/or worried because they feel like there is more info for Xbox than Playstation (or at least more solid guesses).
It amplifies into seemingly more "anti-Playstation" than it is... a lot of it really is people who are PS fans who are now worried because of lack of information. There's some concern trolling but it's mostly just overly-concerned PS fans as far as I can tell.
And a few big Xbox fans scattered about being overly pessimistic towards Playstation of course lol
MS MO works more like a PC. Developers code to a thick API layer that abstracts the hardware, think of it as a translator. It means that developers have less low-level access, but when MS replaces the hardware under the hood, they can update the "translator" to work on the new hardware.
I think many overlooked how subscription models like Game Pass can do to the industry as a whole. How most profits are made by a handful of games while many quality ones go unnoticed. Subscription allows gamers to rediscover games in the most economic way while at the same time provide a steady income to as many game developers as possible. While i personally did not sign up to Game Pass, i am sure many will and that is a good thing :)
Sounds great . I m happy they made some changes to make ps5 controller have its own identity, feel wise .
I love the look. I liked the light bar honestly. Replacing it with some kind of low power customizable multi-color light accents on the controller would be something I would like to see.
These are probably fake as I mentioned in the other thread but I hope they are real or close to real. Never a big fan of Light Bar.
i remember some post processing RT features that could be used easily and with no work, i've watched breath of the wild on emulator using RT
When there is Xbox news (like Phil's chip picture) it jumps like 2 pages an hour, so it is just a slow news day.
I would guess pretty high for games that already have RT support on PC.
It should be a great way to get your game noticed on the new systems as people transition.
edit: This is assuming Sony has a good path for developers to release "BC Patches" like MS does on Xbox One. If Sony is going to make BC a prominent feature they might already have those things in the works. "X number of games getting patched for launch day" is going to potentially be a metric we see coming out of this gens console race.
I never quite understood treating BC like a second class citizen.. as it encourages people to upgrade to the new generation quite nicely before tons of new "next gen" games come out.
I don't know what kind of quality RT would be possible (framerate, number of rays per pixel, number of bounces ,etc), but I think it's safe to say that it's intense enough of a process that it would compromise what else you could do with the GPU and so won't end up in big games on current gen consoles.
Other approaches to dynamic lighting, shadows and GI (see Metro Exodus, The Tomorrow Children) are likely to provide betters results that if those games switched to straight up RT for lighting.
probably not. Deckard was what made it look as lifelike as possible.
It is motly a tease of this fast loading time, very important for a fighting game.
Yes this is not for game. Someone explain it in comment.

Wouldn't be surprised if his next game is shown at PSMeeting.
If you understand that 1080p/1440p games will have much smaller assets than 4k games, why does a smaller SSD make "no sense"?
That type of thing is testable; there are entire companies that do nothing but build robots that hammer on devices and simulate wear over time.
Knew a guy who worked for a company like that in Redmond; told him what laptop I had.. he told me that within 2 years my left hinge connecting my screen would crack and eventually break, and he was right lol
There's gaps in what they can test because it's not a human hand doing the testing (so no sweat, natural oils), but the actual mechanical parts are tested pretty well.
They've worked great on my xbox controllers this whole generation so far. Should be fine I'd imagine.
I remember reading these on AMD's presentation and that the next iteration of RDNA will be a full RDNA. Can we then assume that Sony is very much stuck with the Navi 10 architecture due to their backward compat requirements?
Oh I agree completely, and its not like any concerns I have will prevent me from buying one. Just something Im keeping an eye on. Particularly because the more fancy features something has the more they tend to cost.
These arent the same as the impusle triggers. The DS5 can reportedly adjust the amount of tension required to press the trigger depending on the action being perfomed in the game. Which means moving parts that are prone to wear down over time.
😱 wonder what he's up to.
Very excited for this tech. Hopefully TLOU2 gets patched or ported to the PS5 launch day. I need to feel the string resistance. 😋
Another exciting thing about the upcoming consoles is being feature rich from the get go. We always have these consoles launching barebones and then features being added over time. I'd hope the ps5 and xsx will at least have everything the previous gen had and then more....Sony a better DVR is much needed. A high res recording and framerate please
Yes please!
If next gen VR can give us something approaching that using the magic of foveated rendering then I'll be so damn happy
