Sony holding PlayStation 5 Showcase on Sept. 16
A look at PS5 launch games (and beyond)
Since there’s only a couple months left til launch, one could reasonably presume that Sony will finally give us the answers we've been waiting for.

I wonder if there will be a remastered Bloodborne with 60fps down the line.
I've been hearing rumors about game announcements. Like there's one going around for FFXVI.
But if I have to be honest, the only questions I want see answered is price and the extent of the PS4 bc. I game primarily on PC and have no intentions of changing that, already having started saving up for an extensive upgrade probably a 1/1,5 years down the line. The new Xbox is basically already out of the running since I have no interest in Game Pass and most if not all the Xbox exlusives are supposedly coming to PC anyway. So it really comes down to whether or not I want a PS5 as a secondary system for the exclusives, and maybe to play some PS4 stuff I missed out if the bc is extensive. I'm willing to lay down up to €500, but if Sony goes above, like 600-700 as they did with PS3, then I'm just going to pick up a PS4 on the cheap sometime and put the rest of that money toward beafier hardware for my upgrade.

Instead of buying a PS4 I would just wait for a price drop on the PS5 if it comes out at $600. I remember when the PS3 came out at $600 it didn't keep that price for long.
I think getting a ps4 for cheap and waiting on the ps5 is fine since a lot of the early stuff will be cross gen actually and there will be PS4 BC for sure so anything you get on it should work on ps5 too. I got mine for just 200 bucks like 3 years ago during black friday (and it's a slim 1TB model to boot) so maybe check out prices for ps4s during this year's black friday.
