I'm going to wait for the Playstation 5 to accrue a decent library, especially knowing that their games go dirt cheap two years into release. Without a gamepass-like option (PS Now is too bandwidth-hungry), I'm honestly just going for cheaps this time around. I'm just happy that I'll be able to play Miles Morales on my PS4 still. (I'm still waiting for Ghost of Tsushima to go on sale).

I'm thinking Black Friday will do you wonders this year for Ghost of Tsushima going on sale.
So about my post on switching out the side plates:
I guess it will be a thing even if not officially from Sony since this breakdown video they put out today shows those side panels just pop off pretty easily.
Also, thank god they made it easy to clean the fan system. More devices in general need to make it that you don't need to dismantle the entire thing just to reach the cooling systems to clean it out.
This is BIG! Awesome UI. Check it out for yourself.
That does look pretty good. Seamlessly going from one game into another, pausing and allowing you to return to a game as soon as you log in and being able to watch friend's gameplay as you're playing your own. Does make me wonder how disc games work though as it seem to favour having digital unless finally owning games on disc gives digital access. It's the only way I can see that working...
A review/breakdown of the controller was released today. Check it out below!

Likely the same as on PS4, so quick resume is only going to work for one game at a time unless you also own digital titles. Unless it will let you quick boot a game from where you left off once you put the disc in.
Some of those are looking really good. Cool to see what a black version of the PS5 and DualSense would look like and the Spiderman one is too, and the Xbox SX with the tiny Kingpin on it got me laughing.
Anyone got a console in hand yet? How's your experience with it so far? Been seeing a lot of mixed responses from people and journos alike so wanted to hear from you guys
I have not gotten one yet. As I've mentioned before, I tend to hold off for a good year or so before picking up a new console. Let some of those launch issues get ironed out before I join the party.
Although I'll be honest, I have been slightly tempted to pick one up sooner rather than later because I've heard the PS5 runs Genshin Impact like butter, with incredible loading times, compared to the PS4 Pro, and it makes me want one. That combined with how good the Demon's Souls remake looks, but alas, I must resist the urge and hold off for the betterment of the investment. Buying a new console day 1 is a risky move.
I think the only person here who has openly stated having a PS5 is @"Yuri", so I guess we'll all have to dogpile them for answers.
I expect I'll get a PS5 this time next year, when more first party games have come out so that my console isn't a paperweight between releases, especially right now with few games being released for it that interest me since the initial launch games came out.
Wondering how much longer the console is going to go in and out of stock like the blink of an eye? I feel like even the Switch started to become less scarce around 6 months after release when that too was being scalped to hell and back.
Rumors are there might be more restocks happening tomorrow (Walmart) and Friday (Best Buy), with a possible Gamestop restock happening this weekend/early next week.
If any of these are true, maybe I can snatch one up. Normally I wouldn't be interested in picking up a PS5 this early, as I mentioned multiple times in this topic previously, but the release of the PS5 version of Genshin Impact, which runs basically like the PC version, has changed my stance on it. Helps that there are some games I'm super interested in coming out on PS5 as well already, like Scarlet Nexus and Tales of Arise. Usually it takes a year or two for some of the JRPGs I'm interested to start hopping over to the next gen, but it's happening a lot faster this gen. Even though both of these games are also releasing on PS4, it'd be great to play them on PS5 instead where the performance is going to be miles ahead of the PS4.
Oh so I apparently didn't see this before my impression of the PS5 are basically its shiny and new but the biggest difference that I seen so far was faster loading times.
A few caveat to mention I only own PS4 games as most PS5 games have yet to capture my interest and my screen isnt 4k so there could be some differences there.
If you want to wait for the shortage to be over or a price drop you probably wont be missing much honestly. If your PS4 is dying and you have the opportunity to pick it up it's probably worth it in that case at market price.
