Playstation event Today

[CriticalGaming]

Today at 1pm PST there will be a 40 minute Playstation 5 stream announcing some new things, games, and possibly price and release date with the console.

On a side note, there was a report that Sony had to dial back production of the console, but this was later confirmed that themass production had not changed and that the original order of mass produced units was lowered prior to production due to a chip shortage. Which has been happening throughout the tech industry this year so it's not all that surprising.

Though it will be interesting to see how much of a challenge getting a PS5 will end up being this Holiday.

Final Fantasy 16! Seems legit

the new Spider-man looks great, but mostly more of the same.

Call of Duty Alpha this weekend.

Resident Evil 8 looks amazing.

 

[Shadyside]

Demons Souls looks great, but I want to know if they are going to add the lost arch stone.

 

[CriticalGaming]

$499 for the Disc Console

$399 for the digitial.

 

[CriticalGaming]

God of War 2 or 5!!!! YAY!!!!

 

[CriticalGaming]

Demons Souls looks great, but I want to know if they are going to add the lost arch stone.

It is the smoothest Souls gameplay I've ever seen

 

[BrawlMan]

$499 for the Disc Console

$399 for the digitial.

Not surprising in the slightest, and I'll be waiting 1.5 to 2 years for that price drop. Thank you.

I'll take a look at the videos when I get home from work. Thank you for the update.

Naw the price is about what was expected. And they are the same price as Xbox, just aren't offering the uber cheap version.

Also the Five Nights Game looks like it actually has some budget and might be more than the same shit. Could be interesting.

Price. Good. That's all I really wanted to know. Ok, no, there's also of the lingering question extent of the PS4 backwards compatability.

Oh fuck, I hope that PS+ Collection thing isn't it. Would be a really dick move if they put bc behind a paywall. Seems unlikely, but you never know.

So when they say 'Disk' do they actually mean a physical disk with the actual game on it, or the modern version of disk that's a cardboard cutout with a digital code to redeem?

It has a Disc Drive, so i assume there will be actual discs. Not that you wont have to download whatever stupid ass updates are required.

Liked it more than I thought I would. Demon's Souls looks great, & happy that FFXVI & God of War got announced. I like the look of that Hogwarts game as well.

Though I'm a little disappointed FFXVI looks like it'll be taking its combat cues from FFXV. I really want them to ditch empty slashy combat & get back to some form of tactical/ ATB/ turn-based something-or-other.

 

[CriticalGaming]

Pre-orders go live tomorrow apparently.

Demon's Souls DAY 1?

 

[Shadyside]

Thinking of getting 2 PS5 to sell them on ebay and craigslist.

Yeah the $70 was only a matter of time before that became the norm. Shame because now individual players will only get less games throughout the year.

Or more people will wait until the game drops in price. Because nothing drops in value faster than games for some reason. Unless you're Nintendo and refuse to ever have sales or price drops on even your oldest shit.
