Jem: Soon (but hopefully not too soon), the PS5 will be unloading in the nearest game stores and into our homes to replace our old PS4/PS4 Pro. But as early as now, gamers and developers alike are already making assumptions and blissful wishes as to what the PS5 will have to offer. You’ll find communities on Reddit, twitter, and Tumblr to contain discussion after discussion on what they hope to see and hopefully what Sony will answer.
A loyal fan of the PlayStation myself, I’ve got a few ideas in mind as to what the awaited console should have.
This is Furukawa, President of Nintendo. We will make an announcement about the successor to Nintendo Switch within this fiscal year. It will have been over nine years since we announced the existence of Nintendo Switch back in March 2015. We will be holding a Nintendo Direct this June regarding the Nintendo Switch software lineup for the latter half of 2024, but please be aware that there will be no mention of the Nintendo Switch successor during that presentation.
I'm excited for a switch 2 however I don't feel it will be coming this year as per the tweet in they are commuting to a reveal in this Japanese financial year in 2025.
Realistically we will get one last holiday season to focus on the switch because it would be madness for Nintendo to go into the holidays where the switch always performs well when they have announced a switch 2.
I'm thinking we see a announcement late Jan 25 personally with a release between March and June depending on when the software is ready and how strong the holday sales were if they need to boost those figures for the next earnings call or not
It should be an interesting year; Sony, Nintendo, and MS all have new Hardware to show.
Sony is taking actions as video by Moore’s Law is Dead, has been issued with a copyright claim.
And people say it's all fake because Sony haven't said anything 😂 conveniently forget the PS4 Pro was only announced 2 months before release.
Just announce it already! I want to preorder one asap. But in reality they don’t want to lessen PS5 sales until Pro is ready to launch so I understand the business part of it. September is probably when they announce it with an early November launch like the PS4 Pro
I would take that video and upload a torrent of it, fuck that copyright bullshit. If your going to do something that has a chance of being taken down, make a torrent first share it. Then Sony or any other company is helpless and you can laugh in their faces, taunting them to try to take it down 🤣
As much as the PS4 Pro didn't represent a major % in the playerbase, announcing a 'better' model will hinder sales from the 'base' model. They are right, business-wise.
XDefiant was originally supposed to be out in summer 2023, but following a seemingly-successful beta test in April of that year, it was bumped to October 2023, and then delayed again to an unspecified future date. In its February 2024 financial report, Ubisoft slated XDefiant for launch in the fourth quarter of its 2023-24 fiscal year, which ended March 31.
A week before that date arrived, rumors surfaced that the game would be delayed yet again, and a few days later Ubisoft made it official.
"The game has always been community-first, with player feedback as a top priority," the development team said in the update. "While we hoped to go live by the end of March, there are still some improvements that we need to test before that."
Ubisoft said it's "finishing preparations" for a server stress test that will run for 12 hours on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. "After this short test, we expected to be able to lock a launch date and start sharing more about exciting content XDefiant has to offer in the future!"
The previous news was from the team/rumors this is ubisoft themselves now saying the game is delayed again no new date set but they will have a stress test on a date that has not been set.
So the game is delayed to _____ TBD
Network stress test at ____ TBD
Ubisoft we make games whenever for whoever we just do not care

I'm just going to be honest here and say what people seem to not want to, XDefiant success is going to be short-lived and it's because it's a game that's going to be under Ubisoft's umbrella. The development team can be absolute rockstars, but with Ubisoft steering the ship it's not going to go anywhere.
It could be a truely amazing game (it won't be) but with Ubisoft it will be monitized within a inch of its life.
The game is dead move on. It's the same with the Finals. These short period hype games doesn't last.
Eh, stating the obvious. Everyone's gonna say BC, more power, blah blah blah.
1). Better OS, and dedicated RAM for it. If we get 16GB GDDR6 as well as 4GB DDR3 for the OS, we'll essentially have 3x the RAM dedicated to games(and even more to graphics.) An additional 4GB DDR3 is a modest price increase but will give us much more in practice as the system won't have to dip into gaming RAM, and all our gaming RAM stays gaming. Plus this is enough to run the OS smoothly as it sucks currently. A good example for the OS is the Material design someone came up with. https://youtu.be/m_9QLRwO_0...
2). Vapor Chamber cooling. As it stands the Pro is a leaf blower, and this will allow higher clocks as well as lower noise and a smaller form factor. Since 7nm is essentially 2x the 14nm we're currently on, this means we'll get around 2x the power, an EVEN larger console than the Pro, and yet another leaf blower, at the same price. At 9 TFLOPS this is not what I expect. Increase the price so we break 10 TFLOPS, lower noise, and smaller form factor.
3). Better subtitle support. Plex has to burn in subtitles when streaming from my computer.
4). Better search functionality for themes, and also searching via artist.
5). Last is the usual. Blah blah blah break 10 TFLOPS, Backwards Compatibility, 2+TB HDD, 16GB GDDR6, Ryzen/Navi, better controller plz plz. Damn it's always the same circle jerk on specs. Not that I don't want them as well but you're stating what's been said a million times over as if nobody knows. This article is so damn poorly written.
What about 2 hdd slot.. one 1tb hdd come with the system and you can fill the second slot with the hdd of your choise.
