Sony will hold a PlayStation 5 Technical Presentation, hosted by Mark Cernyon Sept. 10 at 8am PT / 11am ET / 4pm BST. The livestream will last only 9-minutes, and Sony said, the presentation "will focus on PS5 and innovations in gaming technology."

Good thing we got this video in crisp 1080p so the quality difference was noticeable.

[Spam_Dolphin]

soo 5 years later and for $200 additional dollars the PS5 pro can do what the PS5 was advertised to do. fun !

[Silver---]

Remember we all thought the infamous PS3 $599 announcement from Kaz Hirai back in the day was diabolical lol.

[MicuBamba]

This is not 4 the players.
This is 4 the p(l)ayers.

$700 without disc is sony real, I'm buying ps5

[SonOfSyrinxia]

$700 for no disc drive? What the hell happened SONY!?

BIG MISS - “And for the 1st time ever… Players can now play Blood Born at 60 fsp in 4K with Advanced Ray Tracing. Sony Marketing don’t know how to market. Instead they’ve sent out Technical Dana Carvey to spit numbers at us and show how us games from 3-8 years ago.

People concerned about a pro model usually buy physical games

[tehCrusix]

What's with the historical revisionism on the Dreamcast? It was not more expensive than other consoles, it only came out the year before the PS2. It's not like it was $1000 in 1997

[MajorMoment]

This is basically "How NOT to do a new product roll out" presentation 101. Like, who in their clear mind would get excited about something like this??!

[marshinz]

A higher Base Starting Point for the Console releases, is a massive Win for PC Releases.

[Deltax]

PS1, PS2 PS3 games to playable with the disk was requested on social media. Good idea...
No more defective consoles....

[MovedbyTruth]

I'll be getting one but only when the price drops or refurbished models are out there.

[AI-AITUM]

Also, don't know why many of you are complaining about the price anyway. A lot of you said you weren't gonna buy it anyway, before it was even announced. Remember?? You said it's not real, then found out it's real, then when specs came out y'all said it's not worth it, not even knowing the prices yet and if it had hdd or not. Now you wanna be extra mad after that reality hit and you saw Sony wasn't catering to you like you had hoped after all that lol. That's what you get tbh, and stay mad. Don't get the Pro like you said before all of this. Why are you trying to be mad and complain now, Sony just helped you do what you said you were going to anyway, right? 😂. Oh BTW, I'll be getting one easily since so many of you won't. Thanks for that.

[please-wake-up-now]

Can't believe we're still debating about the price! 🤣 Guess we gotta find creative ways to justify splurging on gaming. Personally, I'm just excited to see what tech they packed into this new PS5 Pro. Hopefully it’s worth the cash! 🤞🎮

[LordDragballZ]

So is the disc drive that you buy for the slim going to be compatible with the Pro?

*This perfectly sums up how IGN stretches out content*

IGN reports: the stream should go for about 9 minutes.

IGN: Does a 4+ hour livestream for the event.

[angelolima]

They forgot native backwards compatibility for all generations for all ps5s and throw away ps plus

[Timenec]

Please do not buy this console, at this rate the ps6 is going to cost 1k in 3 years time

Xbox not going the mid gen console route and launching new gen console earlier than sony will make them ahead. Not to mention the handheld and Game pass!
