Poll: *The Official PlayStation 5 (PS5) Thread*

There's always someone hunting for something to bw offended about.

Yea. Mad. What does the colour of a console or piece of hardware got to do with anything? Should I be offended that all these years TVs, video/dvd players etc have been black? The thought did not even cross my mind. I like them black, but it has nothing to do with anything else, you really need to stretch to see a link imo.

I think they might release black replaceable faceplates for The people that really don’t like the white console.

for me I don’t mind either way. I’m buying day 1.

You need to think deeper; it's all about the symbolism and what putting the white model first represents!

Lol.

If we are thinking that crazy deep then I would say it represents equality. As PS2, 3 and 4 were black

Indeed. Everything about my unit area is black. Hi-Fi black looks sleek and nothing sticks out.

Oh yeah, I forgot. This is OcUK, humour is frowned upon here and everything must be deadly serious all of the time.

I love how mental the PS5 looks.

Was hoping it wouldn't be another boring black rectangle, soon as the pad was shown I knew I wouldn't be disappointed.

I think the air flow design is a lot better this time round, sucking cold in from the bottom and exhausting it at the top. Just like the 360.

The 360 exhaust was out the back of the console. The top and bottom were intakes.

With all the talk of people not liking the white, dbrand already have skins ready for preorder.

The airflow design does appear to be better, but I'd still expect a fair amount of heat and noise.

I have warmed slightly to the design, but I'm still convinced that function over form is the way with anything electronic.

Those white controllers are going to get grubby looking quickly. Definitely a good time to be into gaming with two consoles and the new GPUs coming.

 

[Spikey]

Think I've decided to get a PS5 at launch, son wants Series X for Christmas, can't wait to play both!

It would have helped if your post was funny and not just a dumb comment

Just speculation by a journalist, so ingest some sodium chloride post haste.

Also, given the current political climate, only releasing a white one is a very brave and very bold statement from Sony.

hahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaaa.

Oh wait, are you being serious?

I look forward to the rainbow one .

Sold my PS4P today for £240, thought I'd do it before they drop big time if they do at all. Hopefully that's about 50% towards a V if I get one.

I'd say that's pretty decent, especially as hopefully you'll be able to play a lot of your ps4 back catalog on the ps5

I've been tempted myself.
