A new State of Play will be broadcast on October 27, 2021, at 2:00pm PT / 10:00pm BST. The presentation will focus on games from third-party studios, including both previously-announced titles and new ones, and it will last approximately 20 minutes. Sony also issued a warning to content creators that the presentation will have licensed music that Sony does not control the copyright for, which could interfere with video coverage of the event.

And? Does it upset you that more people get to play a game? Not to mention an inferior version than what would be on the PS5? Boo hoo. Cry me a river. Smh.

I i think they were being sarcastic. Guess we'll find out. lol. If I was wrong, my bad. Edit: Possibly happy AND sarcastic at the same time?

@D34DL1N3R, would you rather pay $70 for a PS5 indie game, or $20-$30 for a PS4 indie game?

More like 'state of moviewatching'

Are there any interesting upcoming exclusive PS5 games except God of War Ragnarok?

 

[WG481]

I do think it would be cool to see what gets announced for PS4, since the PS5 has sold only 10 million units, while there are 114.9 million PS4 consoles out there.

Until Sony solves their PS5 scalping problem, I'm loyal to PS4.

$4.99 for same game on Steam.

PS5 has sold only 10 million units,

Only? That's way more than the PS4 or Switch sold in the same amount of time.

I still not watched the event, so you may point to my face and laught hard if this presentation comes filled with PS5 exclusive games. I obviously believe that it will be focused on PS4 and crossgen games.

If they fill 2022 with PS4 titles, like I believe they will, it will be cheaper for us, sure but I really want a solid current gen library, and I believe it is taking so damn long.

It's been 11 months.

> Nearly three million console units were shipped in its first month, exceeding Nintendo's initial projection of two million and within a year of release achieved over 14 million units sold worldwide, outselling total lifetime sales of the Wii U.

Nintendo wins.

How many of those 10 million were bought by the same scalpers.

Only the Wii sold better. My main point was that the PS5 has outsold the PS4 after launch so there's no "only" about its sales, and scalping has not held it back. If anything, the chip shortage has subdued the potential figures.

Lmao the chip shortage that could be stopped by companies not being dumb as fetch?

I believe it's mostly the automobile industry's fault we have a chip shortage.

Funnily enough the automotive industry panicked early in the pandemic and cancelled most orders, so they actually helped everyone else by freeing up slots. Blame companies like Apple for monopolising that opportunity and leaving smaller clients to fight for scraps.

 

[CoolMe]

20 minutes is awfully short though.. unless they don't have much to show?

Wait, is PS5 scalping Apple's fault? That's a colossal streach.
