If Sony were smart....

I been thinkin about the whole PS6/No more discs situation...

If Sony were smart, they'd release the PS6 WITH a backward compatible drive, THEN after the initial launch (maybe 6 mths), announce the elimination of discs... The transition to digital only would be forced upon both the physical collectors as well as digital...

As it stands, the physical collectors will likely not even bother with the 6, KNOWING they'll never have discs again.

Just my thoughts...

Should I Buy a PS5 in 2026 or Wait for PS6? I Already Have an RTX 4060 PC

Actually, I’m a bit confused about whether I should buy a PS5 or wait for the PS6. I currently have a PC with an RTX 4060, but I’m worried that PS5 prices might increase further and that I might miss out on some games if I wait. My main concern is also that if the PS6 launches in 2027, there might not be many new games coming to the PS5 by around 2028. I’ve never owned a console before, so I’d really appreciate your advice. Should I just stick with my PC, or should I get a PS5 as well?

Ps6 expectations ?

Despite all this ll digital backlash, some of us probably will be buying ps6 if not hoarded by scalpers. What are you guys minimum expectations from ps6?

I feel like 4k( upscaled) 60 fps in all games in high quality mode . Ray tracing on or off doesn't really bother as much but high quality 60 fps gaming is a must.

Ps5 pro does play 60 fps in many games but image quality is bit blurry in some games.

What are you guys opinion on it ? Will it finally be a norm high quality gaming 60 fps .

An all digital future is a good decision. People need to let go off discs.

All Sony needs to do is:

- Provide better digital ownership rights and protections

- Allow players to refund games if we have less than 2 hours of playtime

- Allow players to sell their game license to another player ONLY IF the game is delisted and can no longer be bought on PS Store

- Allow players to convert their physical games to digital licenses as a kind introduction to the all digital future.

There you have it guys, problem solved. We don't need physical games

Theory: data centers will be the future of gaming compute.

I recently acquired a PlayStation Portal, and I’m truly impressed by the cloud steaming ability for titles like CyberPunk 2077.

With data centers nearing or surpassing their own compute requirements (as evidenced by Xai’s leasing of compute to Anthropic), it seems plausible that we might eventually adopt cloud gaming, leveraging the immense computing power of these centers.

If the pipe dream is every NPC is truly autonomous using AI, than I assume that level of compute will not be available locally for a long time, meanwhile, using cloud gaming and data center compute could bring this to pass in the near future.

It also makes sense economically as these data center companies will need to find new customers for their ever expanding centers as token cost decreases over time.

What do you all think? 🤷‍♂️

I know I'm biased because of how cartoony Nintendo games are, but it feels like besides Astro Bot, the PlayStation/Xbox industry is just releasing the exact same AAA game with a different skin every week

I think we should focus less on the “you’ll own nothing” and more on the “you’ll be happy”.

Edit: selling 2nd hand games in marketplace was a pain in the ass anyways

All digital 6th generation

Sigh… I’m definitely not a fan. However I have grown to really love my PlayStation ecosystem over the last decade. Unfortunately, I’m not going to hold out. I want to play games here.

Just trying to spark a discussion. What are your thoughts?

The PS6 will need to be better ergonomically

I love the ps5 and the design to an extent. However I absolutely despite the faffiness around it. The awkward stand with the launch console, awkward plastic stands with the slim etc.

Just give me a machine that needs no external components for support like the previous consoles.

Thank you

Im calling it now: The PS6 will be advertised as a path tracing machine.

assuming that it has raster performance as a RTX 5070 (maybe Ti), and that PSSR 2 performs at 80% of the quality DLSS 4:

1440p 60 fps with path tracing is totally doable.

the 5070 itself does about 50 fps on cyberpunk with path tracing at 1440p, the PS6's optimisation and (likely) higher RAM pool could enable it.

other than this I dont see how Sony could advertise their new machine. so I expect path tracing to be a big part of the marketing push, same as the RT and SSD of the PS5.

Sony's Official Response (PS6?): If you buy an EA/UBI/GTA subscription, they can REVOKE licenses acquired via PS Plus.

That was the explanation given by Sony PlayStation support, applying to both subscription games (EA Play) and free-to-play games (Warzone).

They recommend that you "accept" the corporate decision and buy the full game.

P.S. 1: The images were translated/transcribed for wider reach.

P.S. 2: It happened with EAFC 26 and now with COD MW 3.
