@get2sammyb they specifically said PS5 will receive a next gen patch day 1 so it won’t be running in game boost / back compat mode. It will take advantage of PS5. However there will still be a full next gen patch / version released later that fully uses the new hardware.
@FlawlessG Yea true. My TV is hard wired as well. I find that one the PS4 HDR comes on for everything and also game mode is on which I don’t want for viewing TV.
@Zuljaras surely you don’t need to wait for reviews. The launch PS1/2/3 and 4 were fine. I don’t know how people can resist not getting the next gen straight away. Telling yourself there’ll be bugs or problems is just negative and I don’t have time for that kinda talk lol
The article says they are sitting “in the exact same positions” as in the game. They’re not. When Ellie is playing/singing Dina is NOT sat cross legged.
@Ryall that’s what I said! You won’t have to worry about which drive will fit and which will be compatible because Sony will issue a list of approved drives...
@TheBuzz Yes I’m sure the exact reason is that developers “can’t be arsed to finish the game”. Do you even realise how much these guys have to crunch just to get the game done by the deadline.
@kyleforrester87 really! I had a Full HD TV when I had a PS3. I get your point but I don’t see them coming to market and being affordable for a long time (like 3-5 years).
@stuzster this sort of reply always confuses me. Fair enough you can’t afford / want to wait a few years but the stuff about bugs and model revisions is just nonsense. I’ve still got my launch PS4 and PS4 Pro and both still work absolutely fine.
@Ken_Kaniff You say lack of communication and crowd control yet Sony are kicking back feet up watching US the fans whip ourselves into a frenzy for any drop of information. It’s marketing genius.
It’ll either be that the PS4 version will get a PS5 patch day one or there will be a specific PS5 version. I bet the reason they can’t say is that Sony hasn’t announced cross gen plans yet. It might be that all eligible games get a PS5 patch. Or that they’ll need a specific PS5 version. Either way I imagine it will be worth waiting and playing the stock PS4 version on PS5 just for the faster loading times etc
It’s a great attitude for MS to have, however I really wonder, if Xbox was still neck and neck with PS4 and not being outsold nearly 3-1 on consoles would they have the same message/attitude? Sounds like they’ve been beaten that badly they just want no part of a fight and want to focus on “their own objectives”. I would bet if the sales were a lot closer like 360/PS3 days they would still be talking smack.

@Lightning13 Can you not just use a USB drive for War Zone on PS5 seeing as it’s a PS4 game?
Re: Metro Exodus PS5 Version Runs at 4K 60FPS, DualSense Support Included
Last time I checked Exodus was on PS Now so hopefully the PS5 upgrade works with that version too.

Re: PS5 vs PS4 Pro Fan Noise Video Eloquently Makes Its Point
What’s the point of these videos. A brand new Pro would be silent. Let’s make these videos after the PS5 has operated in 3 years worth of dust.
Re: Demon's Souls PS5 vs PS3 Gameplay Comparison Shows Great Upgrade
Are they just not reporting that Far Cry 6 has been delayed?
Re: Cyberpunk 2077 Delay Is Due to Current-Gen Consoles After All
@Medic_Alert Ah right yea, they must just be unlocking the frame rates or something then so that next gen can get to 60fps.
Re: Cyberpunk 2077 Delay Is Due to Current-Gen Consoles After All
@Medic_Alert That is wrong. CDPR have said PS5 and Series X will get a basic next gen patch day 1 so they will not be running in back compat mode.
Re: Cyberpunk 2077 Delay Is Due to Current-Gen Consoles After All
@get2sammyb they specifically said PS5 will receive a next gen patch day 1 so it won’t be running in game boost / back compat mode. It will take advantage of PS5. However there will still be a full next gen patch / version released later that fully uses the new hardware.
Re: Battle Royale Shooter PUBG Will Run at Up to 60FPS on PS5
There’s literally no change for PS5 other than faster loading due to PS5 SSD and even that could be bottlenecked due to PS4 code.
Re: Sony Confirms PS5 Media Apps, Explains Dedicated Entertainment Space
@FlawlessG Yea true. My TV is hard wired as well. I find that one the PS4 HDR comes on for everything and also game mode is on which I don’t want for viewing TV.
Re: Sony Confirms PS5 Media Apps, Explains Dedicated Entertainment Space
@thedevilsjester Yea I guess so. I have a Samsung Q90R which has great app support but guess not everyone has a high end TV at hand.
Re: Sony Confirms PS5 Media Apps, Explains Dedicated Entertainment Space
Not sure why people would use these over their native TV smart apps?

Re: Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales Creative Director Explains Differences Between PS5 and PS4 Versions
@Zuljaras ***** waiting 2-3 years for a better model. I’ll buy it now and then buy the new model in 2-3 years. Life is to short for that *****.

Re: Cyberpunk 2077 Goes Gold, Definitely Launching Next Month
@Cornaboyzzz there is a basic day 1 PS5 patch but full next generation version won’t be put till next year.

Re: Gran Turismo Trademarks Filed on Original Date of PS5 Event
@munkondi Are you mad lol. How about higher quality textures, 4K 120fps and ray tracing for a start.
Re: PS5 Comes with 825GB of Internal Storage on SSD
@Ryall that’s what I said! You won’t have to worry about which drive will fit and which will be compatible because Sony will issue a list of approved drives...
Re: PS5 Comes with 825GB of Internal Storage on SSD
@Ryall Cerny already said they will test and recommend particular drives to get so this won’t even happen.
Re: DOOM Eternal Comes Packing a Day One Patch on PS4

Re: Gran Turismo PS5 Could Target a Mind Melting 240 Frames-Per-Second
@kyleforrester87 really! I had a Full HD TV when I had a PS3. I get your point but I don’t see them coming to market and being affordable for a long time (like 3-5 years).
Re: Gran Turismo PS5 Could Target a Mind Melting 240 Frames-Per-Second
@kyleforrester87 the point is, regardless of it it runs at 120 or 240 FPS, 99% of 4K TVs only support 60fps so there it’s pretty much pointless.
Re: Rumour: PS5's Price Could Be High After Sony Struggles with Expensive Components
@M1359 Fair enough, but I would never use that as a reason not to get one at launch 😉
Re: Rumour: Expensive PS5 Parts Could Force Sony to Set Price Point Above $450

Re: Team Ninja Wants to Create a New IP for PS5
Ah yea of course lol
Re: Team Ninja Wants to Create a New IP for PS5
I thought Microsoft bought Team Ninja? Surely they wouldn’t let them freely publish on PS5. Minecraft is the exception ofc.
Re: Some Fans Reckon the PS5 Reveal Event May Be Announced Tomorrow
@Ken_Kaniff How can people be pissed at rumours! You’re right tho, they will be which is just stupid lol
Re: Some Fans Reckon the PS5 Reveal Event May Be Announced Tomorrow
@Ken_Kaniff You say lack of communication and crowd control yet Sony are kicking back feet up watching US the fans whip ourselves into a frenzy for any drop of information. It’s marketing genius.
Re: No, PS5 Backwards Compatibility with PS4, PS3, PS2, and PS1 Games Has Not Been Confirmed
@SirRealDeal Why? It’s simple emulation.
Re: Cyberpunk 2077 on PS5? Dev Says 'Nothing Has Changed' Following Lengthy Delay
It’ll either be that the PS4 version will get a PS5 patch day one or there will be a specific PS5 version. I bet the reason they can’t say is that Sony hasn’t announced cross gen plans yet.

Re: Microsoft Says Sony Is Doing a 'Fantastic Job' with PlayStation
It’s a great attitude for MS to have, however I really wonder, if Xbox was still neck and neck with PS4 and not being outsold nearly 3-1 on consoles would they have the same message/attitude?
