PlayStation Begins Pre-Orders for PS5's Chroma Collection, Horizon Remastered, More

The indigo is pretty sexy to be fair. Though they don't seem to have it in base PS5.

Should have done 30th Anniversary covers🤦‍♂️

I love that Teal coloured controller and plates but as sony are shafting OG adopters of the FAT ps5 i wont be able to make use of them and i dont think the wife will be too happy with me pre ordering another controller as ive just preordered the 30th anniversary edition and the PS portal too. Im already on thin ice and that could just cause it to break 🤣

I was tempted til it only said for slim models.

I don't see the sense in jilting og PS5 owners. Surely that's the majority of the consoles out there, no? Are they expecting us all to upgrade just for plates? I don't get it as usual.

I have a buddy on Instagram that paints designs on Control Pads and PS5 cover plates. I personally only get him to make me designs when I think of something that will be cool and he always comes through. I have a OG PS5 and he made me some Destiny 2 Plates along with a control pad themed around the Witch Queen expansion. It’s a whole lot better than the official stuff, that’s for sure! 😀

To paraphrase Angry Joe: "$54.99 for BLUE??"

Spend your money on what you like. But to me, spending that amount of money just to make your console "friggin' blue" seems like a waste.

I like that chroma pearl controller, looks clean.

@LifeGirl ARE YOU...ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR FRIGGING MIND?!

Pearl is okay the rest look horrible imo.

I like these chroma colours, but Im happy enough with stock white.
Its always good to offer people choice though..

The wording on the PS Direct page for Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered is odd. It's suggesting that you can use the PS5 physical version to play on PC.

So Sony is just a hardware company now? PS VR2, Portal, 30th anniversary, Pro, Chroma. Have they announced that many new games this year? I mean what new games have they announced this year? Like, any?

Oh right they had that all brown all fantasy SoP last month, didn’t want anything in it and already forgot about it. Joke still stands.😂

@Bionic-Spencer That sounds exactly what I've been looking for. Custom art design for the covers. Not stick on labels

I'm a sucker for green, so that chroma teal controller looks slick as hell to me.

@Discol76 his user name is undeadgaminguk 👍🏻

@Bionic-Spencer thank you very much. I'll go have a look👍🏻

To Add You Can Pre-Order That Fortnite DualSense Aswell

Oh and of course they don't have them for the original PS5. Sony are a joke for how they treat their customers at times

Now I have a couple of other bits in white (VR2 and dualsense charger) I don't feel inclined to change the covers on the console.

I have actually put the white back on my og PS5.

@zupertramp Or they just don't have the fab process for those plates running anymore, whereas with the Slim plates, it's just a case of a different dye into the plates already being manufactured for the consoles.

I will likely pick up both games at some point for my collection but neither are anything like a priority.

I have a Demon Slayer vinyl on my PS5 plates so I won't be getting any of these, but those controllers I definitely want. Il probably get the Chroma Indigo one first.

Finally a chance to spend some money. It feels like an eternity past since the 30th anniversary promotion

I'll stick with the midnight black, slims my ps5 down visually and black never goes out of fashion.

The blue controller is stunning, but I'd buy that and then want the matching console cover too...

Can I get my console in the all new 'Horizon Hue'? ☀️🍊🖌

@Intr1n5ic More controller colors at that show then first party games, i kid i kid, i had to. The cool kids always say that when PS or Xbox release new controllers.

I too like the chroma Pearl. But i think i will leave the Pro stock white. Maybe a controller tho. I love the 30th anniversary pro but i ain’t spending that on it.

@Kidfunkadelic83 I hear you man. Got me the 30th anniversary controller the other day, but I would have been tempted to grab one of these teal babies, if I hadn't. Was also so close to getting the 30th anniversary portal, just because, haha. Had my eye (half seriously) on the pro bundle, and thought the portal was the next best thing!

I preordered the pearl white pad - it really looks so good!

@MrPeanutbutterz yes and not having that fab process is a conscious decision. you're supposing a world where these can't be printed, which doesn't exist.

@Ravix Are those screenshots for real? Or is that a joke? Because the original looks far more realistic. The remastered version looks so shiny and plastic. They have removed all the detail such as age lines and skin blemishes and replaced it with a smooth, glossy veneer. And what’s up with his beard? It’s like he has dyed it with Just for Men to get the grey out. Please tell me that is a joke.

@Ravix are these pics for real? The remaster does lack details and looks unnatural. Have to watch comparison videos and see. Either way not willing to spend more money on them. Horizon are very impressive games, however it left me cold on an emotional level. Just couldn't care about anything happening, not for a lack of wanting to.

Nice move Sony not including the "fat" ps5s. Just like 80-90% of systems in the wild.

€10 upgrade path for Horizon Zero Dawn Remaster is also already available in the PSN Store.

€70 for Lego Horizon is a bit much imo though, so guess ill wait for a sale on that.

@Stevemalkpus I mean, the fact I want my console in this colour scheme is the only joke element, unfortunately 😅 beyond that I really wish it was a joke, as it looks like a bad filter on a phone! But it's taken from the Digital Foundry analysis which uses the official remaster footage. And it can be seen in the PS Studios trailer too, still glowing inexplicably, but without the side by side showing how the old game looks better for character models.

I suppose the real joke is that anyone thought this was a good idea and that they then managed to get it past anyone without being told "No! Bad, Dev. In your bed!" 😭😂

@tameshiyaku unfortunately, yes 😭

Went for a teal controller, no plates as I've only got the original model, pity it's not coming until January (no idea why, but I'll likely forget I ordered it by then and it'll be a nice surprise)

Not gonna lie. This chroma colour look so damn cool. Too bad i have og ps5,can’t fit lol. Otherwise those white pearl gonna be my pick

I do want one of Chroma pads, unfortunately cannot log into Amazon rn, so hope they don't sell out crazy fast.

To be fair they do look really nice....... however £55 for a plastic cover ???

Seriously can someone please stop the Earth from spinning because I want to get off

@zupertramp A conscious decision because money, which is the driving factor of any decision like this.

I mean, I don't necessarily agree with it (I've zero interest in replacing my OG plates, but would prefer others to have the option), but it makes total sense from a business perspective why they have (probably) retired that process.

@tameshiyaku @Stevemalkpus So... I've been trying to Google this, because like you I could not believe my eyes. And it really does seem to be a legit screenshot although fully willing to be corrected on this.

If true, that looks terrible. The remaster makes him look like an action figure! I haven't seen a remaster this bad since FFX made Wakka look like the Cheshire Cat.

Scalp away, per the usual!

"the platform holder is targeting a big PS5 push this holiday season, with new accessory colours and first-party games inbound"

Like what? A PS4 remaster that wasn't needed and looks worse than the original?
As for the plates not being available for the OG Tub o' Lard is just new Fony Sony expecting everyone to distch their originals and buy a slim. Personally, I bought some black Mcbazel plates so I can hide the ugly monstrosity away,

If they had the indigo cover for the OG PS5 I’d consider biting. The controller is really nice too but I just got my Astro Bot controller lol. I bought the Astro controller then they revealed the anniversary controller and this. They’ve been cooking.
