You can't gain anything if you don't show up.

Given that TGS is covered by the global games media. Having a presence doesn’t allow Sony to have sole access (outside of Nintendo) to the gaming audience during that time.

Its interesting that it kicks-off with XBOX. It is not just a presence

Uhhh.. Sept 24 is the end of the month man.
I guess we're time sliding to October.

I guess the plan is to wait for everyone to get their fill of Ampere cards first.

Or the information will be out before then. Got to think positively!

haha. I'm not going to lie, I have little faith here.
It feels like we're going to get a teaser of a date.
Then the date
and then pre-orders open and then immediate sold out.

And then we have to start lining up if you want one. Which I won't do. I just don't have time for that. So I likely will miss PS5 for the first year if I don't get in asap. Which is fine I guess, as long as I didn't miss my Ampere pre-orders as well.
At this point in time, if XSX is cheap enough, I will pick one up, but wish they tell me what the price is before I splurge on Ampere. I could also use some Big Navi comparisons and prices as well.

Lots of decisions to be made imo, with very little information but at the same time you know you're just going to go up against the faithful and stuff gets sold out quick. Honestly it feels really lame. Like I'm being asked to buy 4 door crashers during black friday without knowing what the price is or how they fully perform.
