Expecting PS5 slim won't too much smaller than PS5 release.

PS2 Slim is the best slim version of all PlayStation family

ILostMyMind1828d ago

I think it's the slimest Slim ever. 🤣

It's curious to see so many PS fans awaiting for a slim version before the original version is released.

Keep in mind it took 3 years for the PS4 slim to be launched.

I'm not a fan of the PS5 huge form factor but I guess I won't stand waiting for so long.

@Marquinho
Indeed. I have no problem with PS5 or XSX size, I will not carry them in my pocket. It reminded me of people who complained that the PS4Pro was too hot. I never knew the temperature of my console, I didn't sit on it. 🤣

A slim console is ENTIRELY reliant on a new manufacturing process node to shrink the main SoC down and reduce the power consumption and thermal dissipation.

New process = less power = less heat. That means smaller VRMs, more compact motherboard design, smaller power supply, more compact cooling solution and all fitted in a smaller case.

PS5 will need a quality 5nm process to even think about this, which is going to be at least 2022 for mass production. Perhaps it might need an even better process than that to get the machine way down in size.

SamPao1828d ago

Of course it will be much smaller. Every slim is much smaller, in all generations :)

MajorLazer1828d ago

PS1 Slim was amazing too. Massive reduction in size.

TheScotsman1828d ago

not really worried about the size shape or colour, aslong as it plays games im cool, although it does look awesome

anonymousfan1828d ago

Not a huge fan of the PS5 design and colour but what matters to me is that is stays quiet and cool... And a comfortable controller. The rest isnt that important.

Yongyea did this more than a week ago.

Ps2 slim runs on 9v so works off a car 12v socket.
Have one hooked up to my van, so small it will fit in a glove box lol. brilliant fighters on ps2, tekken 4 is every bit as good as tekken 7 gameplay wise, and it doesnt get any better than soul calibur 2.

Think that rumor that they'll still make a new console but at a profit at $1000 will be true though. The series consoles will remain their cheap alternative throughout next gen I would say. Keep in mind that game pass and pretty much going 3rd party is their main focus. They want to bring xbox everywhere.

If they don't maintain some kind of console presence, I think they will lose gamepass subscribers and just become a 3rd party publisher who eventually sells everything off

Xbox games are releasing on all platforms. Who needs this hardware? PS or PC is all you need

I've never owned an Xbox in my life and I have GamePass.

Even if they could get it down to $800 for a box that can run with comparable performance to a PS6 (at, say $200 cheaper) the population of people willing to buy such a thing would be so limited.
It would be the worst of both worlds.

A slow, painful and public death too.

Dark SNES Games Not Made For Kids

As consoles go, the SNES has quite the family friendly image. But, just like a Pizza Hut when you look at its hygiene rating or taste its pizza or breathe inside a restaurant, it’s not always good for everyone.

Just played Clock Tower. Yep. That’s pretty dark.

The golden age. No ESRB*. No ratings at all. It was glorious.

*I know the ESRB was formed by the industry to prevent others from stepping in and taking control.

Darkegg1d 9h ago

Interesting on ESRB. “ The industry, pressured with potential government oversight of video game ratings from these hearings, established both the IDSA and the ESRB within it to create a voluntary rating system based on the Motion Picture Association film rating system with additional considerations for video game interactivity.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/...

Is that how the industry isn’t required to offer consumers a transferable digital token to sell games they no longer play or maybe don’t like? And then treat us all like pirates? That’s how the government is not involved, they had to placate the situation to avoid oversight.
