Poll: *The Official PlayStation 5 (PS5) Thread*

[Noxia]

It's typical after not working full-time for so long that I start work two weeks before launch.
I'm over the moon though, I feel very lucky, the ps5 is a bonus.

Back in 2006, the entire country of Canada only had 40,000 PS3’s at launch. Makes this launch look positively flooded!

PS5's are out in the wild and in the hands of some media according to twitter posts. CNET and at least one other reviewer.

With retail launch just a month away you have to assume it won't be long until units start creeping out there!

 

[montymint]

I imagine big youtubers will have them by now. Gives them time to open, play, film and edit with a couple of weeks left to whip up further hype.

 

[TallPaul_S]

All depends when the NDA's lift I would think - it's probably not a co-incidence multiple media outlets have posted that they've received them, all within a few hours of each other.

TBH I've been a bit sick of the constant Series X coverage on DF, I'm just glad it's not going to be a week before launch before we get some some reviews/back compatibility performance, load times, etc etc.

It does look like the units are proper retail ones too, not the pre-production version.

Some nice box photos on twitter, shows it has DTS support too

Not that I have surround sound on my TV but I'm sure plenty here do

Those review units are sent by Sony. There will probably be under nda about releasing anymore info other than box shots. Edit today I mean

BTW, I know people are excited but shame on anyone who uploads a photo of their box or games.

iJustine has one so that’s a yes to the big YouTubers.

I thought you were being sarcastic for a minute until I googled to see who she was and how many subs.

 

[Dyson]

Don't reference him or it'll encourage him back into the thread!

Actually, now I've been bought in...

Was going to be a day one purchase for me, but I've got so much I want to play on my PS4 still

 

[Plainsong]

I'd never heard of iJustine either. Yeah, guess she's popular.

She is. In the past was solely focused on Apple products, but recently got into more tech and gaming stuff.

She's a bit of a... Luvvie. She reminds me of a young Reese Witherspoon acting all hyper weird.

To be fair to ijustine, she is incredibly hard working and edits all her videos herself.. Has done for many many years.

Shes not a tech professional but enthusiast, her following is very large.

 

[ic1male]

her following is very large.

She probably could be talking about mould and fungus and would still get a large following, if you catch my drift.
