Tweet Allegedly Sent from PS5 Goes Viral

Daytona remake in the Dragon Engine for PS5 confirmed

Why on earth would I want my console to be able to Tweet? I feel so old right now...

@Mergatro1d but can it TikTok?

Interesting that the device isn't labelled as the PlayStation(R) 5 like the PS4's Twitter indicator

I'm calling fake on this personally

I'd rather PS5 have discord integration.

Every PS5 has it's own Twitter account and tweets about what you do with it. If you have PS + you get an Instagram account where your PS5 can share it's beach pics.

@BearsEatBeets If the PS5’s gone to the beach, it’s still looking a bit peely-wally.

@Mergatro1d I don't understand it either. Even if you are a Twitter user, you probably have a phone on you, or next to you, that you could type with a LOT better than a controller. Unless you are breaking out a keyboard, and then thats even more clunky.

Chances are you will be able to upload screenshots and gameplay directly to twitter using thr create button functionality.

@SirAngry No, I doubt the PS5 has an unhealthy interest in children or is a 14 year old with no brain, doing stupid crap for likes.

@Mergatro1d How else will you tell hundreds of strangers what you had for breakfast?

If it can't do MySpace, it's a let down.

Hello.

_{[This message was sent from my PS5]}

@Rob_230 I already use Twitter literally just to upload my Share button stuff. Beats having to use a flash drive.

@SirAngry haha I bloody hope not. Just give me direct access to my Friends Reunited account and I'll be happy

@Matroska I shout it out loud from my front door like a normal person

@Grimwood What about the thousands of PS4 titles that will have dramatically decreased load times because they are on the SSD? I would buy the PS5 at launch for that alone, even if they didn't release any games for the first few years.

@thedevilsjester Can PS4 games even be installed on the PS5 SSD?

As i understood it they had to be on an external drive only?

@nitram2k11 They can be on the SSD, they have never said that they couldn't, only that you can also use external drives for the PS4 titles (but not for PS5 titles).

drip feeding information doesn't help, just throw it all out there now, pointless

To be honest, this is one of the 3 social media sites I use and none of the other 2 are Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or Snapchat. And most certainly not TikTok.

@Bad-MuthaAdebisi While as a consumer, I want all of the information now, it is actually beneficial (to the company) to drip feed it. With the information spread out, it keeps the conversation going, over the next couple of months leading up to the release.

So its not pointless, its a time proven marketing tactic that has tangible benefits, even if some of us would prefer it all at once.

Insert disc. Play game. That's as far as I'm going on my PS5.

@Grimwood and we laugh at you for writing this post just to say this. Sounds like you could do with a shiny new thing.

@resigamer28 you say that... but...

@Mergatro1d I mostly just want to play games on a console, and occasionally chat with friends / maybe play together. Everything else is just noise to me... but I guess some people like this stuff.

Got rid of my Twitter and Facebook, and feel so much better for it. Too many people on social media are deranged and hysterical. I'm done with social media, I don't think it's done society and favours. I don't want it implemented into my console.

@thedevilsjester wrong, it's sold out and it will remain sold out for at least six months

@Grimwood

Marketing at its finest. Apple are the best at it. No need to upgrade your phone every year.

@Bad-MuthaAdebisi I am not sure what you are replying to. It doesn't matter if it's sold out for the next 10 years, its still a legitimate marketing tactic.

That being said, I don't think it's sold out for 6 months, I don't think it's sold out for 3 months, and Sony has already said as much.

TWEET ME!!! PS5!!!

Hoping for a decent Myspace app on PS5

Has the PS5 been shown in real life yet? I have still not seen it in context with people or other things to get a better idea of the size.

@Nyte-Wytch it's the one major thing I want from the next gen consoles, I need to be able to chat through discord. even if it was through the browser version running in the background.

Ya because that’s what we want our gaming console to do is tweet. Sony is a joke now I definitely won’t be supporting the ps5

@thedevilsjester the PS5 doesn't need anymore marketing right now, nor does drip feeding details over the next 8 weeks, it's sold out for launch, more will be available and they'll all sell out immediately, you will absolutely definitely struggle to get a ps5 off a shelf in the first 6 months. Sold out.
