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.

P.S. Wait, so FFVII Remake Intergrade is getting a simultaneous PC launch on June 10th? :unsure:
I'm actually legit surprised they haven't announced it. Maybe Sony and SE extended the contract for the Intergrade version as well, so the PS5 version also gets exclusive retail time.

Yeah, wouldn't be surprised if that were the case. Jimbo loves them timed exclusives lol.

Loading current-gen assets on high-end SSD (under development) = next-gen....That low standards for next-gen!!!! (lmao)
This is why the Spiderman loading comparison was ultimately pointless, and minimal load times have been a thing on SSD for a quite a while now.


But but but I was told next-gen assets won't become a hurdle :lol:

The dream for a 60fps norm on consoles continues
A fast travel load time on an NVMe SSD in Witcher 3 is like ~3 secs whereas it takes anywhere between 30-50 secs on consoles with the best case being using an SSD on enhanced machines. Games already have minimal load times on fast SSDs but consoles finally catching up after a decade is a good thing for the industry.

They're selling the consoles as soon as they're manufacturing them.

Yes, most of these are probably being bought by scalpers and bots ... bu still.... the thirst is real.

83% multiplats? Seems pretty conclusive to me lol

And to think people compare importance of Sony IPs (17%) to Nintendo's (80%+) for their respective platforms.

Nintendo makes a higher quantity of exclusives each year vs Sony, which is excellent. Sony should be more like Nintendo. People can't buy more PlayStation exclusives if they don't exist lol.

I bought Demon's Souls, Miles Morales, Returnal, Ratchet, but it's still 20% of the PS5 games I own.

While we're talking about the PS5, let's not forget how amazing of a success the PS4 has been for Sony, especially after the lackluster PS3.

From these same earnings reports: The PS4 is now at 115 million units sold and it has sold the most # of games for any console ever.

I was really pushing myself to buy PS5 on launch day but than i realised that there is not a single first party launch title exclusively made from the ground up for PS5. So no point in actually owning it by keeping it on the shelf catching dust.

I guess i have to wait atleast an year or two for the next God of War, Uncharted, TLOU, Killzone to release. :cry:

You can copy your games to external hdd but you can play PS4 only games from that hdd.

PS5 games must be copied back to the internal before you play them.

Looks like External Sata SSD is the way to go ? I need more memory, already keep deleting games
If you're looking to get an SSD, I'd say wait for the update that adds support for the internal expansion.

Any external usb 3.0 drive should work fine for the purpose of storing PS5 games and running PS4 games.

Basically this, like the Series S|X, the external SSD / HDD is mainly be used for cold storage of next-gen games. You cannot run native PS5|Series apps on external devices.

    So while Playing Control, I found a journal which said that a bathroom is missing in Islamabad Beurue of Control. With Alan Wake and Control seems to be connected worlds. Even our city is in the universe as well. No wonder those Trail 5 and Trail 6 are haunted.
    did you know you can see @NaNoW credited in the game too ? :p

    What is peoples obsession with Battle Royale genre. 6 minutes to find a match, 3 minutes to setup a match, 2 minutes to land, 10 minutes for scavanging maybe 2 3 gunfigts and its over. Multiplayer landscape is looking absolute dogshit.
    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.

    I usually stay away from animes. Vinland saga changed the way i look at my life, and my experiences within. I recommend every breathing human being to watch this animated masterpiece at least once fromstart to finish.
    After I watched it, I never felt like i watched a show. It was a friggin journey. I got way too attached to Thorfinn and seeing him grow up and find himself and get rid of all the negativity inside of him was just pure bliss.

    With how great cod warzone has translated onto mobile. Mainstream Consoles have lost its value even further. Maybe console gaming was associated with TVs and how TV is not the primary source of media consumption anymore, consoles will lose its 200 million core audiences even further.
