We all know that PlayStation 5 is going to be the headline story of 2020, but Sony still has plenty of PlayStation 4 titles to flog. The platform holder’s launched a new trailer showcasing its immediate lineup, with The Last of Us: Part II, Ghost of Tsushima, and Final Fantasy VII Remake taking centre stage. There’s also a quick glimpse of Death Stranding because, well, it’s still a relatively recent release.
Honestly, this clip was pretty successful at hyping us about the foreseeable future. It’s impressive that, in a next-gen transition year, the Japanese giant has managed to assemble a software slate as strong as this.

"The Best Place to Delay"
@rjejr On Xbox they just cancel them. 😉
Still a brilliant platform the PlayStation that is. 😋
@rjejr The old, Greatness Awaits and waits and waits and waits an.............
I need PS5.
Gran Turismo 7 VR with eight (or more) player online racing?
Bring it.
It's really crazy when i think about it...but Playstation 4 might be my last console if the recent HZD rumors are true.
Never imagined myself saying stuff like.
It really is the best place to play. My cousin got a PS4 at Christmas. An adult who has never owned a games console. He is having a lot of fun and it has been good going back through my catalogue of games and recommending the best ones to him. A good reminder of how strong the PS4 is.
Bit short wasn’t it? As soon as you start getting excited it’s over. I remember showing my mates who don’t even own VR yet the Blood and Truth trailer which is twice as long at 1 minute and they loved it. I absolutely love montages but do it properly!
I am really enjoying the games on ps4. Will hold out for the ps5 slim.
''Sony INSISTS PS4 is still the best place to play...''
@Flaming_Kaiser At this point, it really doesn't matter what happends on the Xbox side of things.
@Hylian-Likely. My backlog of games is the size of new york.word up son
PlayStation and it's first party exclusives are the best games on any platform including PC! Its hard for me to imagine how PS5 will be a generational leap over PS4. Seems like yesterday I was playing games like Pitfall on Atari and loving it.
Has been for 6+ years at my house 😉
Just hope it does not give up the ghost till PS5 comes out (sounds like a hovercraft at this point 😂). The bang for the buck on PS is just crazy each generation.
@Hylian-Likely Well you shouldn't get a Playstation at launch. Ever. You're just asking to get a broken console only to deal with garbage PS support.
With the lastest rumours the best place to play will be the PC, even for Sony.
@Hylian-Likely I've got a 4K HDR TV and PSVR.. 2 reasons PS5 is a day one must. You are gona get a ton of value out of your upgrade if you can manage to wait til PS5 Pro.. but I'm betting there will be a game or two before that, for which you just can't reconcile the wait
@DominatorV93 With PS Now it doesn't even matter if the games go to PC natively. You still have Nintendo though.. if you are counting handheld (or hybrid) consoles as consoles.
@SirRealDeal would be awesome if GT Sport got a VR patch on PS5, and let you play full game. I bought GT Sport for VR and have barely touched it. I'm just not big enough into racing games to play outside VR.
@BarefootBowser Just saying you shouldn't cause there's a chance that you'll get a broken and faulty system(There are even videos of launch PS4s, Xboxs, and Switch's having big issues). That's why I wait a year or two until those are fixed.
Theses dumb unconfirm rumors are getting to a lot of people heads. can we wait and see if theses rumors actual are true first before overreacting to them.
The best place to play is the one that doesn't take content out of the games.
We know Sony. We know. Ps5 us already😁
@DominatorV93 Why? Because a game from 2017 will release on PC around the time the new console will release with the sequel as an exclusive? I'm as pro-exclusive as a gamer can be and understand the necessities of them, but a 3 year old title going multi when the sequel is coming has no weight. After all, once the PS5 came out HZD would have been multiplatform anyway, thereby making your previous statement hypocritical.
Remember kids, exclusives are on one single platform ONLY and are the reason to own said platform as it adds value. Regardless of the second platform (or more in some cases), once it leaves the initial platform it is no longer exclusive and therefore no longer adds value to the original platform. A sequel that is exclusive however, that's the prize.
@Hylian-Likely Haha well with a baby I def see next gen Nintendo in ur future
The best place to play? Ps5 says:
I mean, among their home consoles available to date? I heartily agree.
@Hylian-Likely
Don't worry man. It's doable and believe me: all work and no fun makes Jack a dull boy saying is true! I've got a 2 year old daughter, wife, a job and lots of stuff to do, so I game 2-3 hours in the evenings when the girls go to sleep 😊
@KleebanKliban Playing games natively and playing them on PS Now is not the same thing.
@Nintyfan ''Why? Because a game from 2017 will release on PC around the time the new console will release with the sequel as an exclusive? ''
First neither you nor i know for certain, if the sequel will remain an exclusive.Second if it does remain exclusive, it won't be for long just like HZD, and that is a time i'm willing to wait.
'' I'm as pro-exclusive as a gamer can be and understand the necessities of them, but a 3 year old title going multi when the sequel is coming has no weight.''
It has a lot of weight in purchase decision, especially when that very same game was marketed as an exlcusive ''Playstation only'' just like other first party games. Some people will feel cheated by that, since they bought their Playstations MAINLY for exclusives and SECONDARY for multiplats.If they feel cheated they start losing trust in SONY, trust means a lot and that does effect ones purchase in the future.Especially when they know other ''exclusives'' will also be available on a platform that they could have spent those 450$ instead.
And trust me after a while other first party games will follow suit.
''Remember kids, exclusives are on one single platform ONLY and are the reason to own said platform as it adds value. Regardless of the second platform (or more in some cases), once it leaves the initial platform it is no longer exclusive and therefore no longer adds value to the original platform.''
In other news kids, water is wet.
''A sequel that is exclusive however, that's the prize.''
Again neither you nor i know whether or not the sequel will remain exclusive, tho if other games like HZD follow suit, it is very likely that it will also come to PC after some time. Waiting 3-4 years is nothing.
Back to your original question why do i consider skipping Playstation 5 or consoles in general after this. Cuz it is financially better for me to skip them? Hell 4 of my old friends that have been gaming with me on Playstation brand since 1999 are considering doing the same, the only thing keeping us from going FULL PC were the exclusive games. The graphics and modding were never our true interest, but playing those games with those will bring best possible experiance for those games (something that was only possible on Playstation brand so far) plus the free online will be a welcome change non-than-less.
@KleebanKliban @SirRealDeal The Vr in GT sport was, for me, the biggest flop. The teased the possibility of playing against other player in VR, but never made that promise. Still, for me, the biggest disapointment with GT sport. (and the penalty system, that is one of the worst I've ever seen).
Except all games have been delayed to PS5
As the Playstation 4 cycle ends, this is just Sony trying to make sure that people won't hold up until ps5 comes and just buy this games, and possible remakes, only after getting the new console.
it's a matter of money and they're trying to squeeze what they can from the ps4, which is understandable.. Because, although I will eventually buy more games for ps4, I hope I can restraint myself from buying most of new games, and be able to wait until I get them for the ps5, even if it has retrocompatibility.
@taylorsparks294
Compared to Xbox durability the PS4 is solid, save for maybe the noise it makes. Never had a playstation become unplayable and had 2 xbox 360 fail on me and one Xbox One
@KleebanKliban "You still have Nintendo though.. if you are counting handheld (or hybrid) consoles as consoles."
Why would you not?
People hating on Playstation these days just come across as incredibly salty.
There's literally no denying that the Playstation delivers on nearly every metric in terms of customer satisfaction, and the figures further back it up.
@ShaiHulud usually when people are talking about "consoles", it's implied they only mean home consoles even though handheld consoles are consoles too. If people are including handhelds, it's common to state early on that handhelds will be part of "consoles" for the discussion.
As for Switch, I count it when I say consoles, even though I know it's not technically a home console but just a handheld with a docking station, and I'm basically calling a docked iPod a Boom Box haha. I play it as a console and that's enough to satisfy me
I just thought there was a small chance he classifies Switch from a more strict, technically accurate standpoint because Switch has some decent exclusives and he was suggesting once PS and XB games were on PC, consoles wouldn't have exclusives he cared about. Seems he was counting Switch though and he just doesn't want it or the next gen version.
@DominatorV93 Yeah, there will still be superficial differences
@KleebanKliban Thanks for clarifying! I suppose I always consider my Switch to be part of the three main current home consoles as I never use it in handheld mode. I would therefore call it a home console with a handheld option
