So osiris posted some slides over on era but it got closed fast.
Not sure if it's the same person or not as the name differed slightly
What was in the slides
Edit: nevermind found a video of the slides
Wasn't sure if I should post it or not. I've got the link if everything isn't in the video. There's psvr2 stuff too
Looking at the video it's the sameIt's either fake & will be proven fake or real & we will get a cease and desist notice so go for it lol
Cause he actually talked to real people, not tales ("sources")...

The 3640 SPs would be a red flag but I also remember something about AMD moving away from 64 SPs per CU so if this is real the layout would be something like 140 SPs per CU with 26 CUs or 70 SPs per CU with 52 CUs
Is there a reason why we haven't created a new thread with this new information about the PS5? Like GAF what are we doing?
It would be a better place to discuss the PS5 then here I suppose.
YES!!!!!! This is one of the great leaks I've ever seen of all time! Let's talk about it fam!
Gotta say..........I don't hate ERA like some here on his forum do, but I'm disappointed that he didn't lace us with this cocaine information first lol. I'm sniffing this leak off my desk right now and it feels good. I'll give my thoughts on it later. It's a long video.
Huh Mafia III is 5th most downloaded game? I though that game did poorly? Well I guess it did better than the rumors suggested.
It was a PS+ game. That counts towards downloads.Huh Mafia III is 5th most downloaded game? I though that game did poorly? Well I guess it did better than the rumors suggested.
PS+ (free) game.
So that would explain the bump, for those who were curious to try it and passed up the purchase of it originally.
I've always been tempted to try it but the general perception I've seen is that's it's not very good. Great ideas but apparently they didn't have enough time or money to really make the world work? I liked Mafia II so maybe I'll give it a go.
It's great if you mainline the story.I've always been tempted to try it but the general perception I've seen is that's it's not very good. Great ideas but apparently they didn't have enough time or money to really make the world work? I liked Mafia II so maybe I'll give it a go.
Well yes, I called it......I said that PS4 will reach or surpass PS2 numbers, we had lots of people saying "that is impossible though", but that's the tale of the plot....It's 106M now, what do you think ? PS4 has a chance of reaching mamooth PS2 numbers ? maybe with the help of a price cuts and 599$ PS5 vs 199$ PS4 ?
I don't remember my prediction, but I think it was somewhere around 120 million.
120 million sounds like too low of a number now. They'll hit that by the end of this year lol.
That friend of yours already own a PS4. The target is all the people who are the direct opposite of first adapters. People who like to buy hardware at their absolute cheapest and with cheap games. These people might not spend much, but overall it increases cultural relevance and brand familiarity. Someone who might pick up a $199 PS4 superslim could one day become an early adopter of a next gen PS hardware. And his nephews and nieces would play with the machine and dream of a Playstation of their own.i dont expect that they will sell more PS 4. I guess many people like my friend are just waiting for PS 5 now.
The PS2 outsold the 360 and PS3 for almost two years (not sure the exact number, but that was surprisingly long for the new consoles to outpace it).That friend of yours already own a PS4.

The low cost market is not to be underestimated. PS2 only managed to get to where it is by multiple hardware revisions and price drops.
120M with this year, around 135M with the next if they drop it to 199$ lets say and 145 with 2022, 152-153 at end of 2023 and 158 at 2024 and 2 more years with 2-3M will get it to little over 160M with pricecut to 99$ in lets say 2023.
Of course all of this with PS5 being on the market for at least 499$ at launch or maybe even 599$ (as the rumors are in this range) to make enough difference for a low entry PS4 and high end PS5 offer
That makes no sense, the price of PS5 would have no relevance to the sales of PS4 superslim. If you haven't bought a PS4 by now, you certainly wouldn't be buying a PS5 this year.120M with this year, around 135M with the next if they drop it to 199$ lets say and 145 with 2022, 152-153 at end of 2023 and 158 at 2024 and 2 more years with 2-3M will get it to little over 160M with pricecut to 99$ in lets say 2023.

No. It will get nowhere near 155 million of PS2. Still damn impressive sales again for PS.
No because Sony will PS4 to PS5 upgrades pretty hard.It's 106M now, what do you think ? PS4 has a chance of reaching mamooth PS2 numbers ? maybe with the help of a price cuts and 599$ PS5 vs 199$ PS4 ?
It has to do with that that if someone went to the store and dont have either PS4 or PS5 and want to buy something and see 399$ next gen vs 299$ PS4 will most probably buy the PS5, But when he sees 199$ PS4 next to 599$ or 499$ PS5 and he is not so hardcore gamer he will most probably buy PS4 for 199$. This was the main reason PS3 sold so little after PS4 launched - 7M.That makes no sense, the price of PS5 would have no relevance to the sales of PS4 superslim. If you haven't bought a PS4 by now, you certainly wouldn't be buying a PS5 this year.
People who buy superslims, are not the kind of people who buy premium priced top of the line hardware. That is the reason the superslim exists. it is a separate market that haven't yet been tapped except in occational Black Friday $199 bundles.
No, 199$ drop this year and 99$ in 2022 or 2023 is enough. Also PS5 needs to be at least 499$ for enough difference, and Sony to continue market it and do good bundles with free games as it did with the PS2 after 2005/2006.The only way the PS4 reached it is if it drops to $99 and then drops below that in 2022.
No, 199$ drop this year and 99$ in 2022 or 2023 is enough.
N it's not unless you have been completely ignoring sales trends. It's not going to sell 40 million in the next few years at it's current rate.
It would sell 150 million units if the price dropped to $99 in 2 years. But let's be honest. NO WAY it'll drop below $199 in its lifetime.
I can see your point. And you may be right. I am just doubting it. We will see.The last good moment for price drop is this year. If they don't do it probably won't in the future as well.Not with current trends and fatigue. The PS4 and Xbox One both have been too high for too long and never reached mass market prices. By the time they do the new consoles will be out and that's where both will be out of favor. This actually makes Microsofts cross-gen plan make a lot more sense.
If PS4 were to pass the PS3 it would have been $199 by holiday 2018, instead they kept the price high even after dropping the price of the PRO by $50, wtf? But after losing all that PS3 money I guess they want to build as much of a war chest as possible.
Maybe I'm an outlier...I buy the new console day one...I also buy the discounted old one as a back up/display box incase the original craps the bed.....I have many duplicate consoles lolThat makes no sense, the price of PS5 would have no relevance to the sales of PS4 superslim.

If you buy both, it still doesn't matter how much ps5 is. So I am still not wrong.Maybe I'm an outlier...I buy the new console day one...I also buy the discounted old one as a back up/display box incase the original craps the bed.....I have many duplicate consoles lol
Frankly speaking, I want to buy xbox.100 million sold incoming sony kicked ms badly in their assess again and this will happen every gen
