***** Official PS4/PS5 Discussion ***** Where The Greatest Play Edition

[E-Go]

I think the answer is the discless for most people assuming Sony discounts it enough assuming they make up the difference on digital sales.

I am a really cheap guy and haven't bought a game disc in years.



I'd say we could play together if you haven't already threatened to spoil TLoU2 for me.

Im sorry, i dont coop with less than 3. :P

I still think most people will go disc version unless price difference is huge.

People like to collect, resell, or share with their friends. When I bought my switch I initially went everything digital and its my biggest regret now....if you're cheap you could easily get most of your value back from single player games that you beat by reselling, it takes minimal effort and in like a few months you'd actually have saved money

Dumb question fellas... I'm planning on getting a PS5, but I'm going to play it on a desk. For that reason I need a screen that's around 34 inches or less. Would a 4k TV or a computer gaming monitor be better?

[Deathstroke]

I’m not up on gaming monitors but when I played ps3/4 on an ikea desk I remember 32” benqs were my bread and butter. Great snd were budget friendly. Now I prefer couch paired with tv.

Thanks brah. As I’m looking online it seems like they don’t make smaller TVs that are 4K and support 120+ HZ refresh rates. I might need to get a monitor

A 4K gaming monitor will be better than a TV in absolutely every way.

Plus, I'm pretty sure 4K TV's under like 42" don't even exist lol.

[PattBattmann]

I have recently transitioned from big screen TV crew to 34" 4K PC monitor crew. The latter seems to be the way to go.

I have a 32" HDR 4K monitor, it's pretty good, but if you have the choice ... Go with the TV definitely, get an Oled C9 or the CX, they even support upto 120 refresh rates, so you will be set with the PS5




Most monitors usually have around 60 fps if you count hdr + 4k ... if you want 120 fps, you might end up sacrificing HDR, which is a massive loss, but monitors themselves dont do the best hdr anyway. Mine isnt even all that great, but I can live with it, until I do decide to buy an oled.

So it looks like there's only 1 "small" 4K tv on the market, which is a Samsung. However, it's a Qled. What's the difference between Oled and Qled?

Yuck


That looks bad. I'm all digital, so it doesnt matter to me, but really could have been done better, but i guess that white fits with the current ps5 theme.

TV tech is going to change big time in the next 1-3 years. My plan is to hold off buying anything that is just a marginal improvement. From what we see from XseX and PS5 you aren't missing much as long as your TV is 4k, has decent HDR, and input lag numbers.

What tv are you using now btw?

Any good?






I keep changing my mind weekly whether to invest in an oled / new tv other than oled (maybe bit cheaper) / or just wait

Sony 930

What do you have now? I'll make the decision for you

Just playing on my monitor for the time being.



I'm pretty deadset on buying an oled C9 or CX though haha, depending on what's available by then, when I do decide to buy lol.


Keep hearing the sony x900h or something is pretty damn good and it'll add in a patch for 120 hz refresh rate at all, but where I live right now, sony tv's seem to be more expensive.

Monitor?

Time to upgrade

Lool .... It's pretty damn good tbh, 4K, wide color, and a decent HDR (of course not near tv levels and not even close to oled levels) but I still love this monitor ... But yep, i'm definitely due in for an upgrade for next gen consoles.

[Deathstroke]

My tv in living room is 4K with hdr.. as is the one in bedroom where the PS4 will be going once ps5 comes.

I just wanted one by launch that would be an upgrade now, and future proof for.. the future.

No idea how low the lag is on either. I get my ass kicked in MK online if that helps

My 1450 nuts laugh at your monitor claiming it even has HDR with the numbers it probably produces.

Not all too bad, placebo works wonders my friend.


I remember the first time I ever saw HDR on my monitor and played god of war for the first + a couple other games and was amazed at how massive an improvement it was over my old 1080p monitor, then I hooked up the ps4 to my dad's oled an year later and cried when i realised what I was missing out lmao. I'll be on that proper hdr goodness sometime this year when i decide what i want lol.





btw do you see your tv on this pic? tried searching for the 900e in the local sony store and cant find it, so it must be a different name/code

Pretty sure that's the 930 that I have, just in 65 inches. Doubt they sell it anymore, as I think it was a 2017 model. Honestly have no idea what is good these days as every time I start to look into it there just isn't enough of an upgrade from what I now for a purchase to be worth it. Next step for me is 8k, sick refresh, brighter HDR, and non existent input lag. probably some weird new tech like qned or microled gonna need to come out for it to be worth upgrading for people like myself that have a decent 4k HDR set already.

LoL, just realized I was autocorrected to nuts.

Sony OLED aside, do not get a Sony TV that is not in the X90(H is this year's model) range. So basically, X90, X93, X95 are your choices. They are top range LED. That is what I read at a TV forums.

Oh chit 2017 model ... yeah, then it's not gonna be in store.

Yeah, I heard the new x900h or something was supposed to be really good, although not sure when and if malaysia is gonna carry em. Even the CX's aren't out here yet. Most likely in July/August they said.

Same here. Been checking Sony PH site. They got the latest X800 and X750 but not X900/950(which I am aiming for). But reviews says X950G(last year) and X950H are almost similar. So if X950G's prices will go down a lot, I might get that.

Well fukkkk....




I caved in guys and pulled the trigger ....... I am now the proud owner of a 65 inch C9 oled. My body is ready for Tsuchima.

Looool.



Still got a high end pc, but too fkkn lazy to go carry it to the living room and hook it up to the tv. Will prolly do it when cyberpunk releases.... the wait for the ps5 just got worse now that i got the tv.



I also think I have a problem, i'm probably sitting like 5-6 feet away, but that feels like it's too far for me to really appreciate the tv. I tried sitting like 3-4 feet away and found it far better lmao.

for real used to be PC master race but as I have gotten older playing on a big tv, a nice sound system, and on the couch just really hits different

Been playing Division 2 last few weeks. This is damn good. Played a lot of D1. But it's pretty refreshing to play something in depth. Got the DLC add on since the original game was cheap. Set it on Challenging and run out there. Haven't even been in the DZ yet and I'm in the 80's in level.
