Playstation 5 [PS5] [Release November 12 2020]

[Unknown Soldier]

It seems to be a 512MB chip, the other 512 will be in the southbridge, for a 1GB total, like in the PS4 PRO.

Really!

H5AN4G8NBJR
The H5AN4G4NBJR-xxC, H5AN4G8NBJR-xxC, H5AN4G6NBJR-xxC, H5AN4G8NBJR-xxI, H5AN4G6NBJR-xxI are a 4Gb CMOS Double Data Rate IV (DDR4) Synchronous DRAM, ideally suited for the main memory applications which requires large memory density and high bandwidth. SK hynix 4Gb DDR4 SDRAMs offer fully synchronous operations referenced to both rising and falling edges of the clock. While all addresses and control inputs are latched on the rising edges of the CK (falling edges of the CK), Data, Data strobes and Write data masks inputs are sampled on both rising and falling edges of it. The data paths are internally
pipelined and 8-bit prefetched to achieve very high bandwidth.

Quite probably. I'll get the USB sniffer on it later and see what I can find.

The writeup about PS4 camera. Someone also made an easier to use driver on github I can't find the link (there are 2 or 3 projects, the latest one is less than a year old)

Maybe it could help with PS5 camera

Just picked up my PS5. This is a big boy lol.
Man the size cannot be over stated lol.
Box was pretty beat up inside and out, so that's not a great start, not sure why they can't package things without bending cardboard or tearing the box, but whatever.

Funny story, EB games asking me to buy additional warranty insurance with them so that I don't have to deal with Sony. She tells me that there are tons of reports of overheating and break downs for this launch, I really recommend getting it for $80 . And the controller stick drift hasn't been solved from PS4, so $10 to replace my controller no questions asked.
You think you can out concern troll me? Da fuck? Do you know who I am?

Anyway, it's pain in the ass time to get this wired up, I hate going behind my TV stand, fucking spiders everywhere.

And I'm out again.

Oh cool, that will help greatly

New Just picked up my PS5. This is a big boy lol.

Good. Now break that thing apart and measure the SoC with calipers. For science.

Come on, now. You know I'd do the same if the roles were inverted and mine was coming today instead of next week.

Already? Like hours into the launch?

She's trying to sell him $90 worth of 'insurance'.

Yes, but there are "tons of reports" of overheating according to her, and we shouldn't forget that one ton of reports is 1000kg of reports.

She's trying to sell him $90 worth of 'insurance'.

There were some fuss in Poland about defective PS5 series a week ago. Turned out that one of the retail chain didn't secure consoles for the launch while selling whole lot of pre-orders and decided that they will blame the product. I don't think that local Sony executives were happy about that.

STOP THE COUNT!

Maybe she's seen the video of the XSX with a cloud of smoke coming out of the top of it after it was switched on!!

Digital version seems like a marketing point more than anything:

lol no.. 800 dollars down, I should have paid for that $80 warranty if I was going to do that.
Setup is pretty nice, it's installing the game from disc while updating the console.

My controller impressions: great build quality.
on haptics and rumble... perhaps a little over sold. Definitely an improvement over what we have, but I'd take the hype down several notches from calling it revolutionary gameplay/design. It provides some additional immersion, but you may be interested in eventually shutting these things off when you tire of it.

STOP THE COUNT!

Is that under the PS5 tab? I don't see Bugsnax being available yet.

It's available now in my country. Added Astro's Playroom(PS5) to my library as well.

 

[Deleted member 11852]

I haven't seen a single good piece of pre-release coverage of Bugsnax and had mentally catalogued as the Knack of this generation but I'm now hearing really interesting stuff about it. I'm still not sure it's for me.

Well it's free, so why not try it out?

 

[Deleted member 11852]

Well it's free, so why not try it out?

Because between Astrobot, Sackboy and this, it's cuteness overload. I want to kill some stuff!

 

[Unknown Soldier]

Well I added it to my library so that when I go visit my brother in the future, I can play with my niece.

I also bought Sackboy Deluxe Edition today on the PS4 to tie me over till next month when I get my PS5, then I can upgrade it to the PS5 for free.

I will give my brother my PS4, and my niece can then play Sackboy too.
