PS5 - EVERYTHING REVEALED

The PlayStation 5: What We Know So Far

Microsoft's approach to the Xbox Series X seems like a straightforward one, focusing on high-performance hardware and efficiency. But what it really seems like is that Microsoft probably spent more money to get a bigger SOC which can just sit at a high clock speed period pretty much no matter what whereas Sony has a little bit of a smaller chip likely is going to have a smaller console which is an advantage but to get to that point to really push everything they cut out of the chip they're having to really crank it up to 11 and you're definitely gonna be some limits where it's gonna be like obviously you're gonna have just make the noise.

I actually made the noise I was like dude two two do I make noises a lot even with today's event we still don't know a lot about the PlayStation 5 so something like the price I think is something that Sony and Microsoft are going to play chicken to see who can reveal last. Who knows if there's even some wiggle room on what they're actually going to price these things that that's something I think we're going to see a little bit later.

We know that the PS 5 will support some number of PS4 games this makes sense it's going from an AMD x86 architecture to a upgraded version of that same architecture there's no reason why PlayStation 4 games won't work short of obviously making sure that they've been tested and there's the back compatible sort of layer available. What we don't know is what that actually looks like.

They seem to say that most of the most popular games will be optimized first is there going to be a point where all PS4 games are playable on the PS 5 these are going to be some way to node you have to Google it or do you put your PS4 desk in and find out. I'm very curious to see as well as what the process looks like if the PlayStation 5 needs to download a patch if need to wait for OS updates to sort of better support more games.

I'm also curious about what the software looks like so Sony has done a great job with software since PS3 I love the PS3 owner face even to this day I still feel like it's super intuitive even though towards the end it got a little long and complicated. PS4 I think is also a pretty clean OS but sort of my bigger question is not necessarily just what the design will be but more so what Sony's plan for the PS 5 really is.

With the PS3 it sort of struck this nice balance between obviously it was a very serious gaming machine there are a lot of other very nice features right obviously had the Blu-ray drive you later on the regeneration of Netflix and all this sort of the streaming video I mean you had a freaking compact flash card slot on the on the first fat PS3 right. I mean there's a lot of stuff that they were doing big game it was very much the focus for the console especially when you contrast' that with the Xbox one.

It was a gaming console first and foremost right yes you could still watch YouTube and Netflix yes you could still watch a Blu-ray but with the PlayStation 5 in considering that this is going to be the generation it's going to be living in our living rooms for the next potentially decade I'm curious to see are they going to push more of the entertainment aspect I mean I expect all the usual suspects of Disney Plus in HBO Now and all those kind of stuff will be on the PS4. What are they going to do anything else beyond just cater to the hardcore gamers.

It's only going to take advantage of their massive libraries to try to make this more of an all-in-one entertainment system or are they going to stick with what they know what they feel comfortable with which is making a games console first and everything else second. I don't know I would guess that's probably the answer but there's still a lot of things that we really do not know about the PS 5 until Sony decides to drop five more events on us or just release the thing. I mean I prefer they released the thing but you know I'll make as many videos as I need to get to the bottom of this.
