Topic: The PlayStation Fan Thread

Yeah if PS5 doesn't have backwards compatibility, I'd seriously consider just going with Xbox for this gen. Even though their exclusives are only about half the quality as the Playstation exclusives, I really want to be able to play old games. And preferably with performance boosts.

You gotta be kidding me !! 😮😮😮

How do i play Cooking Mama on PS4 ?!
Motion control by PS4 stick + Touch pad or by using Moves ?

@Anti-Matter You're wondering about how you play it, but all I want to know is why that sandwish uses paint as a topping. That doesn't look like food!

@Heavyarms55
It was Rainbow jam sandwich according to Cooking Mama Cookstar trailer. 🤣

@Anti-Matter Sounds like sugar and food coloring. Eww. lol

Pretty sure PS4 BC was already confirmed for PS5. The real question is how far back the BC extends. I'd love to be able to play my previously purchased PS1/PS2 Classics or even PS1/PS2 discs on PS5. @Dezzy @CanisWolfred

For today's presentation, just lower your expectations and don't expect any new game announcements

A youtube video is up now in advance of the stream start so Push Square will probably have a stream + chat setup like Nintendo Life has for Directs.

Just show me some fast loading and maybe some upscaled PS4 games via BC. Not one to care about teraflops and whatnot, just whatever end result they achieve

I want at least 2 or 3 something Cute and Cartoonish PS5 games from first day launch. BC with All Sony consoles by disc is very welcome.

@Grumblevolcano Most likely. The chats usually go live 30 or 60 minutes in advance.

Presentation is over 52 minutes long! Seems like a good sign!

I wonder if the PS5 will use memory expansions like Series X will?

@redd214 That's long! That's going to be greatest thing in a while, or the dullest thing ever

@Octane that's what she said

I looked into it, and it does seem like they're aiming for full backwards compatibility, judging by some patents, and a comment from Sony suggests that they're currently testing to see whether or not it's possible. I'm hoping for the best, at least.

If I can download my full PSN library, I wonder if that'll include games that were removed due to license issues, like Scott Pilgrim and Marvel vs. Capcom 2? I'm in no hurry to replace my PS3, but should the worst happen, I'd hate to think those games would be lost forever someday...

I didn't think it had been confirmed.

PS3 games is what I want. Don't care if it's emulated and you need to rebuy them, or if it's based on the original discs. I never had a PS3 so still haven't been able to play games like Demon's Souls and MGS 4. This would massively add to the value of the console for me, and would guarantee I go with Playstation rather than Xbox for the next gen.

10.28 TFLOPs, 36 CUs at 2.23GHz

Not sure how the other internals will differ or affect things, but it looks like the XSeX has the edge when it comes to the GPU.
