@WebHead as exciting as a new gen of consoles is I'm ok with another 18 months of the ps4 so not too disappointed personally. Will be right around 7 years at that point so seems like good timing.
@WebHead It will be annoying that games like TLOU2 and Death Stranding will probably release cross platform. And seeing as I'll be buying a PS5 anyway, I might as well wait until then.
I'll probably hold off of buying new games from this fall until the PS5 drops.
Luckily for me I still have to play Persona 5, God of War, Niet and Sekiro.
@Kidfried def wont be day one because I proabably wont be able to gwt one during that time due to needing to get gifts, selling out, likely $500 price.
@Kidfried as am I. Figure we're probably 18 months or so out from launch. Saving just 50 bucks a month you'll have $900. Enough for a (probably) $500 console, a few games, a couple controllers/peripherals, and a new plus sub. Add in since it'll be BC could trade in a ps4 to get even more stuff. Plenty of time to be there at launch with proper planning.
@redd214 Unless circumstances change, I will probs have enough disposable income from a couple of months to get a PS5 if it costs around the 500 quid mark. I usually get a bonus from work around about the time it will launch too so that will go towards it. I will most likely have a tonn of games to play from my PS4, so unless there is something jaw dropping I might not even need to buy any new games. Peripheral wise I will most likely only need a headset, if my PS4 ones don't work with the PS5. Everything else I can sort out a bit later.
I remember when my PS4 came out some crossgen games were more expensive on the PS4 than on the PS3. Even when they both released simultaneously. Hopefully backwards compatibility will put a stop to that.
Persona five with the most recent example it’s recommended retail price was £50 on PS4 and £40 on PS3 although of course Shops discount at launch but the PS3 version was still about £10 cheaper. Call of duty ghosts actually allowed you to pay the extra £10 to use the PS3 disk as proof of purchase on the PS4 @redd214
@Ryall I recall it happening later on in the gen but not at launch. I remember I bought 4 Ps3 games that had ps4 versions coming out at launch and I exchanged them after it released and they were all same price.
I think it’s a case of different publishers making different decisions. When I got my copy of Legend of Zelda : breath of the wild day 1 I noticed that for Wii U version was £10 cheaper than the switch version. @redd214
