PlayStation has been pretty tight-lipped about its next-gen console, with only its controller, logo and some spec details unveiled. However, we will finally learn (a bit) more about the PS5.

Jim Ryan, the President & CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment, announced via a PlayStation Blog post today that a digital showcase about the games launching on the console will air next week. The event which will run for "a bit more than an hour" to introduce "the next generation of games" from various game studios.

While it was not clarified if we'll finally get our first look at the console itself or get more information about its pricing, Jim Ryan assured that this event is part of a series of PS5 updates and that after next week, they will have more to share.

The online PS5 event is planned for next Thursday, June 4, at 1:00 pm Pacific Time which will stream on Twitch and YouTube.

I still dont understand why Sony and Microsoft dont delay everything until June 2021 .... most people (not me) already burned their stimulus money on more important needs 40 million people are unemployed and we have shit ton of riots... Covid-19

Doesn't make sense logically to release this year

They probably want to talk about the controller.
in the UE5 trailer they casually drop that the ps5 controller can convey sensations to the player ( can't remember the exact words ), more than just the rumble.

It's likely that the white area of the controller is one of those surfaces like they have in tablets and phones for blind people that deforms according to what's onscreen etc
idk what it's called
So the player can feel the surfaces the character is touching in the game and all that.
With how much of a big deal they're making with the controller I feel like it makes sense.

If they market it right it can generate a lot of positive press, nintendo changed the rumble a bit and it turned a lot of heads, imagine what this could do.
But it's Sony... Probably they'll find a way to make it look boring, they always go the extra mile to look "mature" and avoid being compared to Nintendo...
( I wish they would let the PlayStation have fun colorful games again like on the ps1)

His record doesn't excuse the knee in the neck. He wasn't acting aggressive or resisting arrest.

"...then he ordered him to step out. Floyd then “actively resisted being handcuffed,” the statement reads."

I'm not saying the officer was right, but there are conflicting reports on how aggressive he was during his interaction with the police.

i'd agree but in sony's defense, most of the people that played a ps1 back then are pretty grown up now and would want more mature stories and gameplay

    the vram is one advantage when it comes to AI but ends up being slower even with that and really AI is the only use case that needs more than 12gb vram right now
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Interesting lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think I watched a video where two games at 4K where eating just over 16GB of RAM and it's the one case where the 7900XT and XTX pulled ahead (minus RTX of course)
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    So my opinion is that they could age a bit better in the future, and maybe AMD will continue improving them via drivers like they tend to do. No guarantee there but they have done it in the past. Just a feeling I have.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    cyberpunk at 4k without DLSS/fidelityfx *might* exceed 12gb
    +1
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that game barely runs at native 4k
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think it was some newer games and probably poorly optimized PS4 or PS5 ports
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    they definitely will age better but i feel dlss might outweigh that since it looks about as good as native resolution and much less demanding
    +1
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    When I played Cyberpunk on my old 2080 Ti it sucked lol
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    AMD could introduce something comparable to DLSS but nvidia's got a lot more experience with that
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    least amd 7xxx has tensor cores which the previous generations didn't so there is the potential for AI upscaling
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They have FSR or whatever it's called and yeah it's still not great
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so AMD seem to finally be starting to take AI seriously
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Oh yeah those new 8000 CPUs have AI cores built in that's interesting
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Maybe they plan on offloading to the CPU?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Would be kinda cool to have the CPU and GPU working in random more
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Tandem even
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think i heard of that, it's a good idea, shouldn't need a dedicated GPU just to run a LLM or video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the nvidia shield tv has AI video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    LLMs can be run on cpu anyway but it's quite slow
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    Have you ever been beaten by a wet spaghetti noodle by your girlfriend because she has a twin sister, and you got confused and fucked her dad?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I had a girlfriend who had a twin sister and they would mess with me constantly.... Until one chipped a tooth then finally I could tell them apart.... Lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They would have the same hair style the same clothes everything... Really messed with my head lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    @The Real Jdbye, I could see AMD trying to pull off the CPU GPU tandem thing, would be a way to maybe close the gap a bit with Nvidia. Plus it would kinda put Nvidia at a future disadvantage since Nvidia can't make X86/64 CPUs? Intel and AMD licensing issues... I wonder how much that has held back innovation.
