| With how cheap solid Gaming PCs have become (and are continuing to become) and the fact there's nothing major left to innovate on the consoles I thought we were probably already on the last console generation and they were just going to keep updating the specs on the existing consoles (PCs are killing out consoles in America and some of the other countries so this might be more of a move for poorer countries). It's actually kind of silly they're doing another generation. Microsoft has been playing around with the idea of becoming a service rather than a console, I hope they go ahead and do that, maybe then it'd actually be worth getting a Playstation if it meant playing the exclusives of both them AND Microsoft. Of course having a portable console like the Nintendo Switch will always be worth it lol plus Nintendo has always done best at exclusives I can just play all the third party games on PC. |

(I'm all for a Switch, too) built mine ages ago but I'd say ~$1000 minus peripherals? you can go way less than that you can check this site which will give a better idea: http://www.logicalincrements.com/ |

Kiiruuu said: Backward compatibility, SSD storage, Ray tracing, Ryzen 7nm architecture Yes, please. I've also been waiting for the Ryzen 3rd gen CPU since the CES 2019. Also 8K Support and Disc Drive confirmed...definitely buying this 3-4 years after release, when it's on sale for $200-$300 New with a game bundled. Stark700 said: Anyone want to guess the launch price? I'm guessing around $450-500. Rumor has it that Death Stranding and Horizon Zero Dawn 2 will be part of the lineup. It's great they mentioned about backwards compatibility. I'm also guessing somewhere in that range, though $400 would be preferred. As for those two games, I sadly doubt they'll be ready by the time it releases. However I would love to be proven wrong. Stoorainclaire said: wtf? I just bought PS4! and PS5 out already??? PS5 isn't out yet, we don't have a release date or pricing yet. Also been confirmed it is NOT releasing in 2019. Tenma said: A report I was privy to said their projected price point will be $499.99. I'm on board, I'll sell my PS4 and get it half-off, basically. Willing to bet Bloodborne 2 will be announced with PS5. Other juicy news was that, apparently, GTA6 will be announced with the console as a multi-platform release on PS4 and PS5. Hope you don't mind me asking for your source or a link? As much as I'd love all of that, sounds too good to be true. BrightFlashLight said: So Sony is going to retire the ps4 soon? Sony retired the PS3 in 2016-2017, 10-11 years after launch/release. So I don't think they'll be killing off the PS4 until 2023 at the earliest. (Yes, the PS4 did launch in 2013) |

| @KidBoruto I believe they sum it all up here, if I remember correctly. |

| It's nice to see more people bothered by Sony's pro-censorship decisions. I hope the cost it had on the company was noticable enough for them to consider making some changes but I doubt it. |

I'm highly against the censorship, but I doubt Sony will change its stance any time soon. Niche censored games often risk boycotts from its target audience, but massively popular consoles with a diverse global appeal are a different story. The people truly angry about the censorship are unfortunately a vocal minority. Heck, I'm pretty sure that most Playstation consumers aren't even aware of the censorship. |

From my own circle of people who are more or less casuals (playing only the popular titles coming out) I've never heard a complaint about censorships, anti-consumer DRMs, microtransactions and so on. They don't care and it won't scratch Sony in the least. |
| hahaha i still havent bought a ps4, i was planning on getting one though because they managed to get me intereted in multiple exclusives i guess i dont have to get one after all xD backwards compatibility for the win <3 i loved the wii for doing it with the gamecube too |
Sadly all unconfirmed rumors so far, but I agree, hopefully most of that info is true. Skittles said: The people truly angry about the censorship are unfortunately a vocal minority.

Most casuals/target audience for PS4 never notice/care or even play said affected games. Therefore Sony isn't going to care. |
