Poll: *The Official PlayStation (PS5/PS5 Pro) Thread*

Feel like I'm the only person who pre-ordered one via amazon and I ordered it the second it came available.

Mines on pre order from amazon

What launch games are folks pre-ordering? I cannot decide.

I've not ordered a ps5. However my local indy game store has a raffle draw to win a console. So bought a handful of tickets. £5 a ticket. So fingers crossed.

None yet. Think I'll be picking up AC Valhalla on the XSX so the PS5 may not get used as much early on

Just Miles morales for now. That should see me through a month or two. Got some older games I wanna replay too.

Decisions decisions...

I have two orders - one on amazon for delivery and one on Smyths for click and collect but as click and collect pre-orders has been confirmed to be OK during the impending lockdown by Smyths email - do I cancel the Amazon order and pick my console up in person? Thoughts?

I'd pick the console up in person personally - that's what I'm doing. I've booked time off work so can collect the console first thing on release day and have it up and running quickly instead of having to potentially wait all day and end up getting a delivery time later on and having hardly any time to play.

I’ve been reading rumours of ps5 launching one week early in uk... I personally don’t believe this

I personally think it should be the 12th like everywhere else especially as the games etc are out then

Well this is what I was thinking along the lines of. I have the time booked off, Smyths have confirmed its going ahead OK so I could should be able to cancel my Amazon order and rock up to Smyths on release day an hour before they open - coffee in hand waiting

 

[Mariusz]

Have ordered Miles Morales, still got a few games from PS4 to play through.

I'm with you mate. Refreshed until the page was live, checked out within seconds

So, apparently Demon's Souls has 180 videos built into it which you can access through the activity cards from within the game, if you get stuck.

I wonder if these videos are part of the game files or if they stream.

They stream.

 

[TallPaul_S]

Yeah from the sackboy UI reveal they point to online videos showing the guide sections. 180 videos at 100mb each would be 18gb...

 

[Plainsong]

I wonder if these videos are part of the game files or if they stream.

“Demon’s Souls,” a famously punishing game, will make use of the PS5′s activities UI, which offers helpful tips regarding certain tasks. Moore says there are over 180 videos, each with increasing levels of visibility into what’s needed to complete portions of the game, available via the interface.

That was the wording, so I guess it doesn't specifically tell us other than 'available via the interface'. Which could mean either streamed or pulled from game files.

 

[Mobius 1]

Aye. I can’t see the game containing these videos. The hdd is small enough as it is

No chance, especially when it's already this close. Retailers/suppliers etc will have already done their planning around the current schedule.

Just Watch Dogs at the moment, I know it's had some mixed reviews and the previous games weren't anything particularly special either, but even if it's just more of the same, it'll be fun to explore the world.

 

[kaotikuk]

When are the reviewers able to review? im wanna find out if it supports 1440p or not
