no to scalper prices but a PS5 is definitely worth it especially if you have backlog of ps4 games you would like to play. The loading speeds and silence from the ps5 :noah:

I got mine at retail. But my friend lives in a country that only gets about 500 units a month.

I haven't noticed faster speeds on PS4 games. but then again, all my PS4 games are on an external drive. not the internal.

I was in the middle of Uncharted 4 when my PS5 came in. When i saw it took less than 10 seconds to load the chapters i threw that ps4 pro in the closet. Makes me want to play rdr2 again. that game was terrible at loading and noise on the ps4 pro.

I beat rdr2 recently. I didn't notice it loading faster or anything.

There’s no way i could go back to ps4 after this, having short/instant loading times alone is way too big a QoL feature, you can load into games in a matter of seconds from boot

was never gonna happen for me…only console I find myself going back to is the PS3…it’s criminal tho that the dualsense 5 doesn’t work well with it on a basic scale…I’m not expecting haptic feedback/adaptive trigger support but the damn start/home buttons don’t even work

We are investing in our external development group out of Tokyo as well, and that's a team that has obviously worked with the likes of From Software and Kojima Productions. So we are very invested in Japanese development and Japanese development is something that we love ... I think it's such a core part of the PlayStation identity that I can't ever see us shy away from Japanese or even Asian development.""


Hulst says that while PlayStation games have had great success on PC, the console versions still are the priority and games will hit there first. "Typically, there have been about two years between the release on our platform and the PC platform," he says. "But you can rely on us to continue to create platform-defining exclusive content for PlayStation – that's part of the reason why we exist. It's really important for us to squeeze the maximum out of the platform, to build showcases for the platform, and really let the audience see what these great features are contributing to the overall experience."

In Hulst's eyes, what makes a good, interesting game is in line with what PlayStation excels at. "I say this as the head of PlayStation Studios, and that's kind of the games we're known for – a very meticulously crafted, beautifully directed story that takes place in a world that is really inviting to spend time in," he says. "That's some of the most joy I've had in games. That definitely speaks to that single-player, narrative-driven, character-based experience that I've worked on a lot myself, that I now work on with a lot of the great studios at PlayStation Studios."

"I encourage our teams to be fiercely daring in their choices, and they are, but it also means that I have to back them," he says. "I think that our teams have been really brave, and that that's not just with entire franchise pivots, but it's also going into Norse mythology on God of War, it's The Last of Us Part II's narrative structure and creating an experience that is incredibly compelling but not necessarily comfortable for the player at all times. I back that; I want us to push the envelope and seek the boundaries of our medium and the state of the art of storytelling. I think that is why we do what we do with PlayStation."

Are your PS4 games on the internal hard drive?
