What kinda speeds can be expected? This gen sucked for all downloads. I get 500mbs-1gb on my phone and stuff but like max out at 200mbs even with an Ethernet downloading games 

From the article:

Fist of the North Star: Lost Paradise, standing at 36.6 GB in total size.

PS4 Pro took 58 mins 34 sec

PS5 took 7 min 1 sec

Good news since I'm going all digital, even though I never had any issues with PS4 download speeds with my fibre connection.

Damn I'm getting excited for next gen 😎

Xbox is native in that game tho 

Yea this is essentially smoother framerate (PS5) VS higher res (XSX)

Surprised how many titles tested in the DF video are locked 60FPS:

FF15 

Shadow of the Tomb Raider

Hitman 

Evil Within 2 

Sekiro 

Dark Souls 3

Killzone Shadow Fall

Really bodes well for PS5 BC.  It seems PS5 will be my BC machine until FF16.

Lmao

How the FUCK are any of these load times even acceptable. It's disgusting. Both systems suck.

True. These load times are hardly better than just putting an SSD in your PS4.

That looks awesome! 

Yeah agree. Definitely the most anticipated Series X game this fall. The world/atmosphere and the music is god tier.

There’s a cool horror game coming to series x/s and pc. Anyone know the title? It looked cool and it was dropping at launch 

The Medium in December

PSN Store completely built into the system and not being a separate app is nice!  And voice dictation will come in really handy.

Yea the Series X in horizontal with the stand at the side just looks like it's toppled lol.

Yea, that is a MASSIVE heatsink lol... but honestly, I liked that teardown.  The console is ugly as sin, but there's a lot of work that goes into designing how it all fits together.  Seems like they're doing everything they can to keep noise down and the console cool.

Yea and couple that with liquid metal cooling, Sony really went all out to keep the heat and noise down.

That heat sink is huge! lol

I've been playing this. It's surprisingly good for a free game. The instant character switching and elemental combos are really fun. I've been experimenting with different characters to set up my best team. The upgrade/leveling mechanics could feel overwhelming at first but you will eventually get the gist of it. I have no problem getting through the game without paying and you can play it like a normal single player game. If you like playing looters/open world games with friends, you will get hooked.

Do play on PC though, the performance on PC is much smoother than on PS4. This is one of those PS4 games I hoped would get an automatic upgrade on PS5.

That's a respawn, not a reload.

You're right. I don't expect reloading to be much different though.

In an interview with Game Informer, Josh Grier (chief operating officer at Ember Lab) revealed that their upcoming game Kena: Bridge of Spirits will load in just about two seconds on the PlayStation 5.

No surprise, Sony put a 200mm-240mm fan in it. No wonder the PS5 is so huge lol.

Will probably buy a PS5 for FFXVI.

Is this good? This probably is going to be heavily front loaded judging from Steam Store sales chart.

The Spiderman Remastered bullshit is pissing me off. How could Sony still live in a bubble? 

I can partly understand needing to charge for it if the upgrade is significant.  But having no upgrade path for PS4 owners and locking it behind Miles Morales is just fucking tone deaf. 

Lol this tweet a little funny to me for some reason.
