Sony PlayStation 5 : Play Has No Limits

PS5 Release Date, PS5 Games, PS5 Power vs Xbox One X, PS5 Price Speculation - All the PS5 Info lets discuss



Here are all the rumors and speculation surrounding the PS5, including a potential PS5 release date, power, and launch games of Sony's inevitable PS5. Is the PS5 releasing in 2019?


What we Want From the PS5 Speculation aside, what would we ideally want from the PS5? Backwards compatibility for PS4 games would be brilliant, simply because you'd be able to carry over classics like the Shadow of the Colossus remake to the next console generation. We've seen how well Microsoft is handling backwards compatibility with its Xbox One consoles (including getting amazing results updating Xbox 360 games to run in 4K on Xbox One X), and something similar on PS5 would be great.

In terms of pure power, the PlayStation 5 has to significantly exceed the power of the Xbox One X. This means featuring more games running in 4K at 60FPS. If the PS5 can deliver about 10 TF of power we'd be happy, as this would allow devs to create games that look a generation ahead of what we've got now.

But what would the dream launch lineup be for the PS5? Death Stranding and The Last of Us: Part 2 are hugely anticipated blockbuster games, with the former especially looking to push the performance of whatever system it's on to the very limit. We've also mentioned Ghost of Tsushima and a sequel to Horizon Zero Dawn, and the latter would be the perfect way to kick off a new console cycle from Sony.

Which is why I said "new" favorite company 🤷‍♂️

The money spent by me on PlayStation has seen a drastic decline. It's mainly my Call of Duty machine now 🤜

Happiness for Necrokiller is when PlayStation acquires a new studio, so that he may welcome it to the Steam family 🤣

Drastic decline is totally expected, after all, CerebralTiger already bent over for all the $70 scams, as well as the $60 timed exclusive that ultimately benefits MS as well. All within the first year 😂

Happiness for Necrokiller is imagining the faces of some fanboys after they saw this image at a Sony event :ROFLMAO:

Two of those $70 games happen to be from talented studios, and I support good talent. There are only a handful of those at PlayStation lol.

I'm there day 1 for anything Insomniac, Naughty Dog, Housemarque, or Sucker Punch make. No interest in the output of the other first-party studios 🤷‍♂️

Also, Deathloop was for $54 on PSN, and it's not even a timed exclusive because it's also on PC (whatever state that's in lol). Had to support Dinga Bakaba for a job well done 🤜

But will it have the best part of UC4/LL i.e. the multiplayer? :unsure:

lmao not everyone who plays COD moves over to the next one at launch. Both Infinity Ward and Treyarch have their own fanbase. COD is just massive like that. Any given game from the series dwarfs the biggest Battlefield game ever. There are still many who play MW 2019, heck even WWII 🤷‍♂️

Also, Naughty Dog doesn't have multiple studios collaborating with them on the development of their games. Their model of releases is, therefore, different, with emphasis on a lengthy campaign/story mode. That said, TLOU Part II didn't ship with multiplayer because their mp team was doing a dedicated ongoing mutiplayer game, so you're likely to see the multiple years of support with that one.

Comparing a free to play game's user base with that of a AAA $60/$70 game. Yikes! 🤣

There's a reason why COD's franchise revenue is 2nd only to Mario and Pokemon's 🤷‍♂️

I mean, if you're gonna brag about player base, then why does the price matter? Its not like every F2P game will dwarf a $60 MP game. At the end, Crossfire is just massive like that 🤷‍♂️ :ROFLMAO:

What's next? CerebralTiger buying FIFA/NBA/Madden every year because they're also "massive like that"? :ROFLMAO:

Not only does price matter, but also the fact that a vast majority of COD's user base needs to pay to play online. Damn. (y)

One COD game and a first-party game from either ND, IG, HM, SP should serve as enough reason to own a console 🤷‍♂️

Though as an NBA fanboy, that's a consideration you'll probably have to make, given the state of NBA games on PC 🤣

PC and cloud gaming is where Sony is also headed, just like Microsoft.
lmao PC won't come close to adding even a fraction of an additional audience of 80 million, and cloud simply doesn't have that kind of global reach. The market for AAA games is mainly on consoles. If Jimmy's serious about not 'gating' PlayStation first-party games, he'll need to put them on Xbox too. MLB The Show '21 has proven there's a big market for PlayStation games on Xbox 🤷‍♂️

For now 🤷🏻‍♂️

Even with an audience of 100+ million on PS4 their best selling first party games barely cross 20 million. This is why even Shawn Layden wanted to expand the IPs beyond the limitation of the console model 🤷🏻‍♂️

Shawn Layden "boss" na hua, bechaare ko janitor bana dia hai :ROFLMAO:

Even Andrew House didn't believe the exclusives were enough to stop people from building a PC. The current leadership doesn't believe they can entice everyone to buy a PS5 with exclusives. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss :ROFLMAO:

    Is it just me or people lately seem to defend every bad game design decision made by the devs and try to give bullshit reasons for that? Or perhaps it's because I'm on reddit and discord :ROFLMAO:
