PlayStation 5

This is definitely day 1

I'd like to say I've learned my lesson with buying the PS4 close to launch and having nothing great until over a year later (BB) but I'll likely get this day 1.

I bought mine two years later when all the good games started releasing. Then regretted it when they announced the Pro...

I wonder If will have the patience to wait for the inevitable mid generation upgrade. Even if not something like the Pro, like a slim version or something.

Day 1

My year old gaming PC will probably wipe the floor with PS5 but I'm going to wait for the actual specs to be released first.

The new controller design does sound interesting though

have sony confirmed it is backwards compat

Yes, but I believe they said PS3 games won't be compatible with it, as usual.

At $900 I think I'd rather chip in a little more and buy some dope, powerful PC instead.

I read it'll be hard to price it at less than $800 with the specs its gonna have? i got fooled perhaps

The said the same thing about VHS machines

Day 1

It's a well known fact that everyone on GL is balling, stop acting cheap ffs

They'll sell at a loss at first. Thats what they did with both PS3 and PS4.

Sony learnt their lesson when they charged 600 USD for PS3 at launch.

Rumors and speculations suggest that PS5 will cost up to £599, making it more expensive than the previous generation of consoles, but obviously nothing is confirmed. It's a fair price for me, but that might make it a bit too expensive for some. I don't know if they're willing to risk more initial loss for the sake of selling more units.


It's also been rumored that this really odd and concept- looking design might be what PS5 will look like. As much as I thought it looked like nonsense at first glance, apparently Sony have filed a patent on that design. Of course, it's not unlikely that it's meant to be the design for something completely different. It's probably just what the dev kit will look like.

I like how we always say we won't get it at that price and then we get it

Well, Sony themselves have actually confirmed that it will be more expensive than PS4.

Day 1 because my 4k TV and my PS4 that I have had since release do not get along well. Have to completely turn off everything remotely 4k related and run it in monitor settings to stop insane button lag

I thought I was finally washed up on shooters this year when I started playing R6 Siege properly but it turns out I was just experiencing terrible delay.

Why people still buy into the 4K hoax is beyond me.
