By Bungie Go To PostNone of you seem to be buying the digital version anyway, so all this talk about quick resume/suspended state seems less relevant than how quickly you can change a diskAll disk games get loaded onto the SSD when first loading up the game -- either fully or partially (e.g. single player vs multiplayer depending on your choice) in order to take advantage of the SSD. Otherwise if they were reading from the disk it would defeat the purpose of fast storage.

I mainly get discs, but I still own plenty of digital games.
Not only those that only get a digital game, but also stuff that I rather have as digital edition.
Tetris Effect comes to mind, that's a game I rather switch to right away play a few rounds and get back to a different game.

Eh? I would think you would still need to swap the disk when switching from one game to another for them to check you still own the game...?

He mentioned Xbox at least once, thank god, it was getting dangerous for him.

shockng revelation, those two companies launching similar products right up against each other, are competing.
Quick resume working across user accounts on Xbox is cool if you share your console/are in a household.
By Laboured Go To PostIt's true, a Sony fan once sent me an image for God of War and I'm a quadriplegic now.And I'll do it again!

From what I've read pretty much everyone here was buying a disk version so they don't have to buy £70 games. It doesn't stop them from buying digital games as you said, but then they're eating into those potential savings, so I would expect most people here won't have libraries that are primarily digital.
And you have to take into account storage limits as well - these features are pretty much irrelevant and possibly don't even work when you have to reinstall the game.
So is it unfair to say quick resume/suspended state seems less relevant than how quickly you can change a disk?

Seriously, I would give up ray tracing if they went back to the NPC density they promised.

The new Xbox UI still reminds me of Windows 10, so I automatically hate it.
It looks faster at least, the old UI runs like ass on my Xbox One S.

It goes for the same aesthetic those ENB visual mods for GTA IV and GTA V go for: super reflective super high contrast super saturated and nearly everything is wet. Yeah those characters though didn't look so hot... dare I say - downgraded? I'm expecting some graphics rawr rawr shortly before release.
By Laboured Go To PostDon't really understand the purpose of going early with the accessories?
GTA 6 will look insane
By JesalR Go To PostDon't really understand the purpose of going early with the accessories?Accessories always ship early
By Laboured Go To PostHere’s hoping I get the Pulse 3D headset early in Canada.
What’s supposed to be so good about pulse 3D compared to your standard stereo headphones? Specially if audio quality is still questionable over Bluetooth, like it is on Ps4.
By sy Go To PostGTA 6 will look insane
My biggest takeaway from all of this, tbh. Lol
I'm not sure if people are trolling about multi-suspends being pointless, but it's a great feature that I hope PS5 has itself.
By Flutter Go To PostI'm not sure if people are trolling about multi-suspends being pointless, but it's a great feature that I hope PS5 has itself.It seems like it has it in some capacity since it didn’t ask to close sackboy when starting destruction all stars and it tagged the icon as swapper or switcher or something like that
Jesus, PSP games have shot up in price too. My copies of Persona 3 Portable and The 3rd Birthday can each fetch around $150-$200 on eBay.
Not sure what's going on here, but the aliasing on these full res Valhalla screenshots is ridiculously bad

I dont get why the Xbox Series X UI is 1080p. It's understandable for X1X, with that shite CPU but you'd think that wouldn't be a problem next gen.
By JesalR Go To PostDon't really understand the purpose of going early with the accessories?Pretty sure they want to avoid a huge hassle for the delievery guys by having to ship alot of things one day. Given that the console is shipping here shortly before BF, where some shops already start doing it earlier, it's a decent move.
Most shops here in Germany ship their games and acessories during the 12th November.

As I said, personally I would also love it despite being physical for the majority of releases. Plenty of small games I just want to switch to fast for a few rounds.
Prices are also just one part of the reason. Resell value, downtimes etc. You've mentioned storage yourself.
But I can also get cheap top up cards every month. Plenty of keysites and similar pages that have been selling them for a decent price. 50€ for 38€ etc.

By cRrusheR Go To PostWhat’s supposed to be so good about pulse 3D compared to your standard stereo headphones? Specially if audio quality is still questionable over Bluetooth, like it is on Ps4.If the PS5 uses a modern bluetooth spec and audio codecs, the audio quality will be fine. I might be wrong but I think the Pulse 3D is the only headset that the PS5 will launch with that supports a wireless connection and the 3D audio feature. Otherwise, you are limited to wired headsets and waiting for more headsets to be supported over wireless (whether that is bluetooth or a dongle).
e: the Pulse 3D isn't even bluetooth lol it requires a usb dongle
By bud Go To Postfucking hell, that looks stunning.
does it have radio stations?
Yeah they've apparently spent huge amounts on it too.
Neo-GT40. Sweet.
