I will be buying from Smyths most likely. But not sure if i'm gonna get one at launch.

Hi can you perorder online for ps5 on smyth website or would it just be instore.

It#s really annoying that the placeholder image is of a dark grey console, even though we know it's the white one in shadow. How sexy does it look when it's not white though! Well, maybe not sexy, but sexier than the white.

Last time I was in gamestop I seen that they were selling games 2nd hand for €67.99.. The plan is to never step inside a gamestop ever again

And that’s before they try to sell you insurance on your second hand game

Gonna guess €450 digital and €550 disc. Allows Sony to market the cheapest true ‘next gen’ console.

Looking forward to the event this evening and hopefully getting my preorder in ASAP!

That’s my guess as well. I’d be seriously impressed if Sony could undercut the XSX with the disc model.

Got an email from Gamestop about the event. Pre-orders to start either after the event or tomorrow maybe??

I think if i cant order a black console at launch then I'm going to have to wait. I REALLY don't like the white version.

I'm gonna say 479 Euro for the disc version and pre-order this week just to give the xbox the two fingers. :pac:

Might drop the disc version a few euro cheaper then Microsoft alright but definitely not the discless version. Sure hopefully we know later on.

Hopefully they show some decent games tonight and not stuff like GTA V or spiderman, i probably won't get the PS5 this year but if it has good games i am more likely to get it sooner

There were rumours of some new games still to be announced (Silent Hill reboot and new God of War were the ones I heard), but who knows how far away they'd be, even if true.

Okay Sony, Knack III with soundtrack by Coldplay. Dooooooo it............

Knack is appearing as a guest character in Godfall I thought, it feels only right as Godfall has taken its mantle as a painfully mediocre launch title.

One thing to keep in mind though about the "clueless parents" is that this is a rapidly diminishing demographic. Games have only gotten bigger and bigger over the last few decades and the mainstream hype of SNES vs MegaDrive or even PSX vs N64 vs Saturn were huge and games became very mainstream. Vast majority of parents now would be familar with games and concepts such as "Little Timmy wants a Playstation because the games he wants are only on Playstation". While I can see some parents not understanding the digital subscriptions etc, I'd be surprised if we had many parents coming in saying " I need a video game box, price is the only denominator".

I'm in my forties now and most people my age that I socialise with don't give two shíts about gaming so they are still plenty of people that are going to be absolutely clueless about consoles when it comes to picking up one for their kids. Also, price is going to be a much bigger factor this year than it would have been last year.

Same experience for me - you'd be surprised about how many people, even as yuong as 32-33 who had a SuperNES or even a Playstation growing up, know exactly diddly squat about games and especially consoles. My "social circle" would be 35-45 mainly in age, and not one of them owns a console nor know anything about them - and I know some look at me like I am a 2 meters tall child for playing videogames

.

For all the talk about gaming being mainstream and having a more mature audience, the real world experience doesn't really reflect the stats - maybe there's a geographical difference at play as well (or kids just lie on surveys - how many times did we put our age as "18-24" on something online when we were 15?

), but most people who aren't into technology and IT, still see gaming as a "kid's thing" and tend to fall out of it as they age. Hence, they end up completely estranged from the market and when their kid asks for the new console, they have no metrics to base on.

Sony gearing up for their big sequel announcement this evening!

(I should probably let this running Knack gag go, but this is what happens in the absence of substantial information).

Ah, he probably just doesn't like being Yellow. Probably finds it all a bit too much Trouble.

Anyway, looking at the Clocks, only 4.5 hours to wait for the showcase and see if Markitron will be less sane tomorrow

Yeah but you seem obsessed by them lately. If you want any help getting them out of your head, I will try to fix you.

Moaning about Coldplay is a full-time job, and the work is never done.

You can answer that question for yourself by listening to their music.

I strongly suggest that you do not answer that question for yourself.
