...It's a PS5.

Doesnt mean shit if you put a PS4 pro enhanced game in it and it doesn't play in 4k
|
The PS5 is confirmed to output at 8K, I think it'll be fine.
|
Rather than systems that output games in 8K and 1640 P or whatever I'd like one that I can play on a TV that's smaller than 50 inches and still be able to read what's on the screen

I found my answer

Faster loading times being a given makes sense since anything else would likely require special patches made by devs for their games.
Might have some rare cases where backwards compatibility could cause problems if certain stuff is hard coded like with GTA V and Halo 3 on the Xbox 360 or if the PS5's emulator is a bit wonky like Xbox 360's emulator for original Xbox games. |
For those interested in the Switch version of Final Fantasy X-2 Remaster, apparently Square Enix made things a lot more of a hassle than needed to be for the game if you opt for the physical release.

Square Enix announced they will be holding their E3 2019 press conference on June 10 at 6PM PST. Might be a pre-taped conference like others they've held in the past.
For some reference, that timeslot was Sony's traditional spot at E3 before they decided to not hold one this year. https://square-enix-games.com/en_US/news/e3-2019 |
Next game in the Call of Duty series is currently rumored to be Modern Warfare 4 based on a supposed leak during a recent Call of Duty co-promoted event held by Activision and the NFL.
Also fueling speculation of this game being Modern Warfare 4 was a report from Eurogamer about this event that sneaked in the game's title via a coded message trick. <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">I see you <a href="https://t.co/R0HlmBvNgt">pic.twitter.com/R0HlmBvNgt</a></p>— Daniel Ahmad (@ZhugeEX) <a href="https://twitter.com/ZhugeEX/status/1121075824239812609?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 24, 2019</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2...have-played-it https://www.destructoid.com/the-new-...4-551329.phtml |
* According to EA and Respawn Entertainment, the future of the Titanfall series has been put on an indefinite hold due to the success of Apex Legends and Respawn only has 2 dev teams in the studio. Since one team is currently busy with Apex Legends and the other with Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, they don't have the manpower needed for a third project any time soon.
https://www.ea.com/games/apex-legend...n-apex-legends * Based on Nintendo's recent fiscal report, the Switch has sold over 34 million consoles since its launch and surpassed the N64 as the 4th best selling console in company history.

https://www.destructoid.com/sony-nea...s-551561.phtml * According to a report from the Wall Street Journal, Sony still do not have any plans to release a new console within the next 12 months.

* NetherRealm Studios is currently dealing with allegations of management abusing Mortal Kombat 11's crunch time with 80-100 work weeks being common. The studio is also alleged to have purposely paid Q&A testers lower pay than typical for their work due to their over-reliance on temp workers to cut costs.
https://www.pcgamer.com/former-devs-...kombat-studio/ * Epic Games is also currently dealing with allegations of harmful crunch time demands and toxic work environment issues for Fortnite according to a report from Polygon. In Epic's case, these issues went well into the game's post-launch due to management's increasing demands for the game to generate more money the more successful it became. https://www.polygon.com/2019/4/23/18...nch-epic-games |
Epic Games reportedly has recently purchased Psyonix studio, developer of Rocket League, for an undisclosed sum and also hinted Rocket League will be pulled from sale on Steam later this year.

Valve needs to do what Netflix did when threatened with other services. Original content. They're literally sitting on some of the most successful, critically acclaimed IPs in modern gaming history.

Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night finally arrives next month. June 18th for PS4, XB1, and PC. Switch users gotta wait a few extra days. June 25th for them.

https://www.pcgamesn.com/new-tom-clancy-game * During an interview with Video Games Chronicle, Platinum Games head producer Atsushi Inaba revealed the company will be self-publishing their games in the future in order to have more creative freedom towards game development. https://www.destructoid.com/platinum...s-552369.phtml * Activision is currently expected to officially reveal the next game in the Call of Duty series by the end of this June based on their recent investors meeting. https://www.destructoid.com/activisi...e-552307.phtml |
Would be cool if they made a sequel to Wildlands but combined it with Future Warfighter or something.
|

https://twitter.com/GhostRecon/statu...41958606929920 * EA announced the first gameplay trailers for Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order will be shown off at their EA Play E3 event on June 7th. https://twitter.com/Respawn/status/1124750674674110464 * Sony announced their next Nintendo Direct-like State of Play episode will be taking place this Thursday and features the new MediEvil game and a "new title announcement." https://www.destructoid.com/sony-s-n...t-552665.phtml * Capcom recently announced a Switch port of Devil May Cry 1 is currently in development with a Summer 2019 release date. https://www.destructoid.com/devil-ma...--552673.phtml |
Totally down for a new Ghost Recon game if it's setup like Wildlands. Aside from the end of that game, it was a blast.

* According to a report from Gameindustry.biz, Starbreeze Studios is currently facing serious financial issues and could potential shut down within the next 12 months unless a new investor is found.
https://www.gamesindustry.biz/articl...dity-shortfall * According to a report from Kotaku, over 150 employees recently walked out of Riot Games in protest of the company's toxic workplace environment and poor handling of their recent discrimination lawsuits.

Would not be surprised if NetEase went and invested money into Starbreeze to keep them afloat. Or just outright bought them to add to their little collection of studios.

Jesus Christ, this industry.
The combination of terrible work environments and ridiculous levels of greed is making this hobby so fucking gross. At this point I’m almost hoping for another crash. God knows I’ve got enough in my backlog to keep me busy until it’s rebuilt. |
Seriously, just burn it all.
|
Rumor mill seems to think FF7 Remake is going to get a new trailer/big announcement at Sonys State of Play tomorrow. Secondary rumor is that perhaps it might be the rereveal of Deep Down from Capcom. Seems those are the 2 front runners for the announcement by a wide margin.
|
Ubisoft accidentally leaked their big Tom Clancy announcement early.
Next Ghost Recon game is called "Ghost Recon Breakpoint" and in terms of storyline timeline, it takes place after Wildlands' Operation Oracle DLC pack. Quote:
|
Fucking hyped for that shit, boy howdy. Wildlands is lots of fun.
|
Sweet.
Just change the location, keep the core gameplay intact, you can have my $60. |
Sounds like they’re doing what I hoped and adding a bit more GRAW into it.
|
Breakpoint looking awesome right now.
|
Yeah it does. Love the new realistic touches like getting shot in the leg affecting movement, and being able to move enemy and ally bodies.

Sony State of Play summary:
New Final Fantasy 7 remake teaser. More to be revealed at E3. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/qOn2bWuA_0w" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe> Monster Hunter World: Icebourne. Goes live 9/9/2019 for PS4 and XB1. PC sometime this winter. Medieval Remake, October 25th 2019. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/OdFgmLIjYiw" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe> New Predator game. Predator: Hunting Grounds. Coming 2020. Sounds like it's gonna play like Evolve. Multiplayer, 1 player is The Predator, everyone else is part of a fireteam hunting him down. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ocP3VPsEGds" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe> And finally, this year's Days of Play special edition PS4. https://oyster.ignimgs.com/wordpress...enshot-132.png There's other small tidbits. But I'm sure you're able to track them down. |
Fuck.
I wanted an open world Predator game. Using the evolve formula is a pretty neat idea though. |
Likely they're going off the concepts they used in the Jason game, which blows Evolve out the water in terms of asymmetric gameplay. Predator is a good fit.
|
Xbox apparently leaked Janemba as the final dlc character for dragonball fighters.
Fuck yeah. |
Also no way they leave out UI Goku and Kefla, so I’m calling a season 3 right now
|
Damn. Really feeling the Super Best Friends break up with a new Mortal Kombat out. Would have been fun.

Apparently Yukes finally realized major changes are desperately needed for their WWE gaming series.
They are forming a new internal dev team who will be working on a brand new wrestling IP. The idea is to use this new IP to create internal competition and provide the motivation needed for the rest of the studio to make better WWE games. Also admitted that AKI leaving the wrestling genre was the worst thing to happen since it created the void in competition and led to them becoming too complacent in making WWE games. Quote:
