Sony Playstation 5 thread
I figured we could go ahead and start this.
I wasn't able to watch it today, but Sony had a live event where they unveiled the PS5 console. I don't really have an opinion on the appearance yet, but it can be vertical or horizontal.

Probably buy a launch Series X and PS5 down the road once the exclusive catalog builds up. Rumor is the former may play PC games in Windows mode. |

I’m only buying one system and it’ll be a PS5. I don’t give a shit about specs and flops. Sony’s exclusives are so much better than the Microsoft catalog and it’s supposed to be cheaper than the Xbox. Sweet! The next God of War will be insane.

I’m a little surprised no one seems to care about the audio deal. There’s huge room for improvement there. I’m really looking forward to the new virtual surround sound headphones.

Storage is where the Xbox Series X and PS5 differ radically. Sony has created an impressive proprietary SSD solution that provides 825GB of storage and 5.5GB/s of performance. The Xbox Series X includes a custom 1TB NVME SSD, but its raw throughput is less than half at 2.4GB/s. That could mean load times differ massively between the PS5 and Xbox Series X, depending on what game developers optimize for. Sony is also allowing PS5 owners to expand storage with regular NVMe PC drives, but there’s a slight caveat. We’re still waiting to see PCIe 4.0-based drives that will match the bandwidth of what Sony has implemented in the PS5, and compatibility could be complex given that Sony will need to validate that drives will be fast enough and compatible with the PS5. Sony’s expansion does mean that PS5 owners should be able to pick up a fast PCIe 4.0 NVMe drive and increase the storage of the console with relative ease. Microsoft is using a proprietary expansion card format for the Xbox Series X, and it has partnered with Seagate to produce 1TB expansion cards for launch. We still don’t know the price of these proprietary cards, nor how much fast PCIe 4.0 NVMe drives will cost later this year. Verge.com |

But what about the games? Have you heard anything about new IP coming out of Microsoft studios? Halo, Gears, and Forza don't appeal to me at all. |
