The Medium latest trailer:
Starting to think it's not a launch game because the XSX development environment is coming in hot.

Well... one month to go and XSX gameplay is hard to see if any at all. Something's not right.

Honestly after all that was said about the PS5 I think it's going to surprise alot of people in a good way.
Not saying that it's more powerful BTW. Just saying that it being underpowered was probably greatly exaggerated.

Was their something wrong with it? I'm guessing they probably broke an NDA by accident or something similar.
The Medium will have ray-tracing despite Xbox website error
The Medium’s listing on the Xbox website has removed any mention of ray-tracing, but the developer insists that it’s still a feature.
metro.co.uk
Well it was confirmed to have it. Maybe it will at release?

Only with playstation would you need to call out that the screwdriver IS actually backwards compatible.

Yeah seems like a mistaken publish and it will be up probably on Monday. Nice to get some next-gen gameplay finally.

Is it a next gen game?

So true ... but it would be engineering brilliance .. not a screw on chunk of plastic to hold a box stand up.

Yeah this was the next-gen version of it running natively on a Series X.

Ok so it's like Horizon Forbidden West then. I got confused and I thought it wasn't a cross gen title.

I should have worded it better. I meant that the reason its not a launch game is because the XSX development environment appears to be behind.

Kinda strange to show just environments instead of gameplay. Looks ok for a smaller team, but not that impressive.
Maybe even a video that shows it and the ui. Would be sweet.

I'm getting one and have Astro A40 and the mixer that is useless now. I thing any good headset would work perfectly, better wait if hesitant and try yours first.

Damn it. Just got time to catch up on today's information. Some thoughts:
PS4 BC: Sounds very good. Having over 99% of the library playable is fantastic right out of the box. Boost Mode sounds upgraded, yet similar to PS4 Pro. I fully expect many games to have patches, much like the PS4 Pro did. I'm hoping Overwatch is one of them, as I've been itching to return. Division 2 as well.
I don't see it being super beneficial for all games, but 99% playable with improved stability or enhanced resolution is a net positive. Worth noting that even the PS4 Pro benefitted from an SSD, so I think you'll see a result there.
Tom Warren: What a shill. You are *really* going to take jabs at a stand? Stands have been in existence since the PS2 era. So you have to utilize a screwdriver to remove it and change positions. Who cares? Does a square box make for superiority?
Then you make bold claims about Microsoft's "more powerful box". A nice claim with a modicum of truth, if your focus is on Teraflops and CPU speed.
But did you factor in PS5's superior SSD architecture? What about the DRAM cache? Tempest Engine capabilities? Liquid Metal cooling? How about WiFi 6?
These are equalizing factors and must be thought about. Did he?
Chances are he did not--choosing instead to let his bias be known by making a generalized statement. This was replete with deriding via facetious comments or blocking those who call him out on said prejudice.
Not to bring other venues into this discussion, but his behavior is EXACTLY why journalists(and the media itself) are so heavily scrutinized today.
When you've made no attempt to remain impartial and incorporate all information into your commentary for fair assessments, can you really be trusted with factual delivery?
On a tangential note, Sony hasn't once(that I've seen) fired off an uncouth tweet like Xbox UK did. Sony burned MS back in 2013 because it was DESERVED. I haven't seen anything these days other than vengefulness.
And done.

On day 1, this just means games with uncapped frame rates or inconsistent frame rates, or that use dynamic resolution, or are coded to scale the res up with power, will benefit. Ghost was clearly coded for PS5 in mind, because on PS4 Pro it already has a performance mode but thats still only 30 FPS, seems obvious thats for the PS5 60 FPS option.
God of War on PS4 Pro is 1080p with uncapped frame rate. Thats my day 1 test. It dips from 60 to around 45 FPS on PS4 Pro, I bet on PS5 it can hit that 60 target almost all the time. Will still be 1080p tho, unless they patch it. Uncharted 4 and Horizon Zero Dawn will not benefit unless patched. They are hard capped at 30 FPS and have set resolutions. Bloodborne should be more stable, but has engine issues with bad frame pacing so that can only be fixed by the devs or a remaster (please Bluepoint.)
Digital Foundry did a video on this and seem to have made some correct assumptions about how the boost works.

That's going to be some ugly pictures. The things not flat, it needs the stand so it is level (you don't want wobble when it is on). The stand looks fine and I'm sure most will choose the orientation they want and just stick with that for the generation.

Absolutely!

The PS5 stand clips onto the white plate when horizontal, so if one lifts the PS5 up and places it back down, the stand stays attached.
When the PS5 is vertical, the stand can't clip onto the PS5, so it needs the screw to remain attached even if the users picks up the PS5 and moves it, then places it back down.
As someone who used the Nintendo Wii with the stand vertically, it was annoying. The console just sat in the stand loose and so if I picked up the console, it didn't move the stand. Wish it had screwed in place into the console.

While vertical, did it look like the clips go into the bottom vent? I think it was hard to see in the teardown, not sure.

The other thread was closed, so I never had the chance to respond to all those who quoted me below. I'm going to respond in this thread instead. I wasn't able to multi-quote you and had to do it manually. Do I don't know if this will notify any of you. But at least I tried. Also, I refuse all those responses with indirect accusations. Not responding to you and staying means means I accept your wrong accusations, and I won't accept. You're all too engulfed with this FUD thing that it clouds your judgement of who's really concerned and who isn't. Not every damn thing is FUD. Not every fan who you see liking the PS brand means they're trolling, concern trolling or spreading FUD. Now onto my responses:
The guy spoke about 2 things being hot, the SSD and the console. "The entire thing" was in reference to the console, not the SSD.
And what am I doing pray tell? I watched the video and quoted the guy word for word. And you quoting Tom Warren of all people is confirming what exactly? He's not the most reliable of sources.Mmnow said:
Nope. What you quoted there is only the part about the SSD. When he said "The entire thing" he's talking about the console, whether you like it or not.Hix said:
My Pro is always trying to take off, but I never checked the heat at the back of it. It's just when it goes loud I assume it's getting pretty hot and that's why the fans are loud. As for my One X, let's say 99.99999% of the time it's quiet, apart from that one time where I heard the fans kick in. I ignored it for a while because I didn't think it was the One X, since it never happened before. But 5-10 minutes in I looked at it again and got concerned. So I went to see if it really is the one making that noise, and it was. I put my hand on it and on the back and it was HOT. I was surprised to see that as it never ran that hot. Then I noticed it had no breathing space to dissipate all that heat it's exhausting. I have a piece of cloth on my entertainment unit that covers it, and I lift it when I'm playing so the consoles can have enough air to get rid of heat. So basically my One X was bathing in hot air at the time and therefore it got hot and the fans kicked in. Once I lifted the cloth, it went back to normal, and the extra heat went away. So when I heard the guy from the podcast say the console was toasty, the first thing I thought of was this incident I had. I do not want the console being this hot all the time!Endless Fluff said:
If you want to call quoting someone word for word talking about the console and NOT the SSD, "concerned by misquoting someone", that's entirely on you, really. I'm being nothing but 100% honest.Jon Neu said:

Fukn stands jfc, insufferable, can we talk about how streaming in assets faster than the player can turn will free up RAM significantly allowing for denser and more detailed goodies... Nah muH ScReW
Look at this insane building! Yeah nah it required a welder, crane and giant screws it's a piece of crap.

So given the ports on the PS5, am I right in assuming that any external USB drive that connects with a USB-A connector (USB 3.0 hopefully for speed) will work? I'm not seeing that the USB-C connection on the PS5 can be used for that, am I right? Trying to figure out what new external drive to buy to use for PS4 game storage and such.

Yeah, any drive with USB capabilities will work. For my T7, they actually come with a USB-C to C cable and a C to Type A cable.
I don't see why a USB-C External drive wouldn't work on the PS5. It's just going to be a bit funny looking having the cable coming from the front and then having your external drive on the side or in back of the Console. Looking like an umbilical cord.
As it looks now, the PS5 DualSense would charge via the USB-C port in front. That doesn't seem to be talked about much.

That the console is still not finished? That's what you normally would think after reading that, but they probably mean the SDK is not quite done. I mean if the hardware is not done while it releases next month then that would be a serious issue!

Well I’m old and used to no loading... after PS1 gamers were not good in that point anymore.
Yes for a next-gen where the focus is to back to the old non-loading times... 13s is really really bad.

I saw a FUD thread complaining about PS4 games not getting enhance for PS5.
What developer is going to enhance a 6-7 year old game with new textures and assets?
Is Sony supposed to do that? Maybe for more recent exclusives, but not 4000+ games.
You now how long it would take just to test them.
People really needs to stop with the unnecessary complaining, just like with the PS5 stand that you can unscrew with a QUARTER.
