Dunno, seeing a lot of “oooh, look at the new PS5” and it just looks like the old ones but it’s a different colour. Are console bros like those guys that go on about different types of identical BMWs now?
Please enjoy your PS5s, I’m sorry, it’s just a bit baffling to me.
There were many, many things to dunk on in the release presentation, but “it looks like all the featureless black rectangles they had before” is an… interesting angle.
I’m sure you are. I have no desire to dunk on the gaming thread and frankly I haven’t watched any of the videos because I recall when I saw the footage from the PS4 stuff it looked to me no different to the PS3 - see also that recent Unreal Engine demo thing where I couldn’t really see anything improving.
Maybe it’s just the way it seems to be presented in Twitter but there are these pictures of the console and it just looks like the previous one except it’s white not black or grey. The controller looks basically the same just a bit more…grey.
Ur 100% correct. I can usually spot even the smallest leaps in tech but that showcase showed a lot of good games that could run on current hardware. As i said as a game showcase it was good but as a sales pitch for the PS5 it was kind of bad (no news about services, system level improvments, price etc) no justification of the extra horsepower either
