Gaming PlayStation 5

No, i was referring to PS Now not Now TV. I was agreeing with @esmufc07 that Sony should combine PS Now and PS Plus into one package, like Xbox does with Game Pass ultimate where they combine Game Pass with Xbox Live Gold.

They'd have to improve their back end do do that. And they haven't.

Why? It's just changing how they price two already existing services.... And I agree they should do it.

PSN has a stupid problem.

There are three ways to buy a game (now 4).

PS Plus
PS Store normally
PS Now

If you have a game on PS Plus and want to buy it on PS Store normally, you have the message *sony* support and ask them to remove the game from your PS Plus so you can buy it. You might want to do this if a game was 50p in a sale and you wanted to let your PS Plus lapse.

Annoying but not a big deal.

But also, if you own a game on PS Plus and then play it on PS Now, it automatically removes it from you PS Plus!

Faster in terms of load times sure but Xbox has a better graphics card and processor so performance wise just like the X being faster than the pro they should still have an advantage. Xbox are also using an ssd than looks crazy fast on the latest preview, they were switching between 5 games in just a few seconds.

Digital foundry shutting the rabid Sony fanboys on resetera.

The SSD will only make a difference on the first party Sony games. I don’t think there will be a big difference in third party games.
 
We've got a thread for direct comparisons between the two consoles. Just saying before this - and the Xbox Series X thread - turns into what the PS4/Xbox One threads did before the thread titles were changed.

Is it? Bloody hell... Thanks for the heads up.
 
Wow. Not sure about the colour but fair play to them for changing it up.

Really futuristic looking,I’m surprised it’s such a dramatic shift away from the DS4. Can’t tell if I like it or not.
 
Pretty neat, that. Looks like it'll fit in the hands more like the (better) xbox controller while still looking identifiably like a Playstation pad.
 
Not a patch on the boomerang, and the left joystick is still in the wrong position but it’ll do I suppose.
 
That basically looks like an Xbox controller with the left-stick in the center.
 
Built in mic, looks great, thought they could have made more use of the touch pad area though.

So will the console be mostly white?
 
So this still doesnt have extra buttons?

Think I'm having to go in to PC gaming.
 
Not sure if I like it or not. Wonder if it comes in other colours?

It’s just on the right side of futuristic for me. Didn’t go too silly.
 
Have seen a black one floating around as well.
