PS5

The design is pretty nice but the colours scheme is a bit sterile, would prefer an all black version.

I know what you're saying i'm tired of this colonial console design too. #blackconsolesmatter

I would have been pretty happy with the dev kit design even though it was designed back in the 1990s, though obviously toned down in size and extravagance.

That thing just reminded me of those ikea basket wardrobe things for some reason.

Looks ridiculous IMO. I'll take the Xbox tower over that thing any day.

Do you not think there will be a black one?

Oh I'm sure there will be a few different colours hopefully at launch. Tbh if it was only released in dayglow orange with green highlights I'd still end up getting one.

[cools]

Heck a dayglo green and orange Id buy one.

looks good.

Looks about right

Great reviews for the pack-in game, Astro's Playroom. Looks like a Playstation themed Mario game that showcases the new controller.

The load times are great but it’s being beaten by XBSX for now, though not by much.
PS5’s 4K and FPS is currently not as good....
Still... I don’t need an SX for this gen as all of their exclusives will be on PC.
Just waiting for the dispatch notice for the PS5.
Can’t get over the size though....

[SuperPang]

Yeah. I really liked how the thing looked in the reveal video but once you see it in the flesh, yikes!
It doesn't need to be more powerful than Xbox if the last generation was anything to go by.

Absolute carnage on Twitter at the news that Game and Amazon have shipped with Yodel and Hermes.

[thegreathopper]

Any good games on it? I would like a brand new console.

I ended up eventually buying a PS4 last year and only bought KOF97, Ketsui and Samurai shodown.

[SuperPang]

Ketsui only runs properly in 1080p on PS5.

Wondering what the chances of picking up a digital version before Christmas are. I'm not in a rush, but you know - retail therapy and that

I think only the initial preorders and November batches are sold out. It would be crazy not to have a December batch for Christmas online and off... But all those will sell out too if you don't "rush".

Amazon have been the most reliable for stock, though like all other sites, sell out in 15 minutes...
They have said that there will be a restock tomorrow 19th at 12pm.

[thegreathopper]

Was that the JP version of ketsui? Guess so. Wonder if it works with a vshg

Yes it is, also one more, Garrega both from the JPN PS store.

[geotrig]

I actually thought this was out for the last month already didnt realise it was out today !!! ....seeing all the carnage on low people going mad as no available stock is laughable at times probably been driven by the need for a a new console to play fifa 2020 no crowd edition

Yay just got mine delivered. Gonna be both Spider-man Miles Morales and Remastered since I skipped it on PS4.

I had to wait in the queue for 48 minutes and when I cleared it was able to get one on nov 19 on the PlayStation site . To anyone that’s trying to get one attempt it at 4-5 pm like I did . Don’t forget to sign in with your gamer tag for free shipping.

With the queues and anti bot captcha authentication I think this way is effective. I’ve been trying since pre orders started and was unable to find one. I heard this method from YouTube.

Report back here if successful so we can gauge if the method is effective .
