        I can't wait to replace my ps4 pro because I never want to hear it's noisy ass fan ever again. If PS5 is noisy like the PS4 pro… I'll sell it for a Xbox SX. I don't want to have to raise my volume to drown out this jet engine sounding POS.

      • DevlicK on 17/09/2020 - 17:51

        I heard there is only backward compatibility for some games, not all

          The magical marketing number I heard being tossed around was '99% of titles'.

          But yeah I imagine most of the mainstream/commercially popular ones would be included at the very least, which is mostly all I have outside of some obscure Psplus claimed ones in the past.

    Sony: "We'll give you plenty of notification about pre-orders"

    Also Sony: "…"
    EB Games: "pre-orders are up at now!"

    Sony: "We believe in generations, these games are built for ps5, we don't want to be held back by weaker hardware"

    Also Sony: "Actually they're coming to PS4 as well, but that weaker hardware thing isn't real anymore"

    Good job Sony, way to stay on point.

    • takutox on 17/09/2020 - 10:07

      This - wtf LOL came out of nowhere

    • netsurfer on 17/09/2020 - 10:19

      It's quite understandable, from a business point of view. Neither Sony and Microsoft can just abandon PS4 / XB1 series just yet. There won't be enough user base for PS5 / XBsX right away. There will still be substantial user base on current gen.

      With consoles using PC like hardware, it is not that difficult to configure the games for lower spec consoles.

      Another interesting news is Demon's Souls will be on PC eventually. We are seeing Sony releasing games on PC after a certain period of time.

      It's not so bad… more choices. You don't have to buy PS5 right away.

        I'm all for it, in fact I was attacked on some forums for saying the games should be on PS4 for those reasons listed.

        But doesn't change the fact Sony is being disingenuous and at the last minute changing their tune.

        I was surprised with the price difference but I hope >90% purchase the disc version as f-you to Sony for their over inflated digital games pricing in Australia and no ability to sell back the license

        Like all the backlash the PS4 got for not being backwards compatible?

        • Goremans on 17/09/2020 - 11:13

          There was a chipset x86 chance. Not an easy thing to do. It's now easier so most generation from PS4 will be back compatible.

    • humbala on 17/09/2020 - 10:51

      i think the official word was 'Backwards compatibility will be available for supported PlayStation 4 titles'

      So i hope it support all the games that i am/haven't playing….

    • skittlebrau on 17/09/2020 - 12:31

      It's not guaranteed for all PS4 games, but Sony have stated they've concentrated on supporting 'almost all' popular titles for launch and then more will be added.

      In the meantime I'll be trying to finish off FF7 Remake and Spiderman before the PS5 arrives. Hopefully my saves transfer across too.

        On the flip side, I have 3 months to finish off all my PS4 games in case they are not backward compatible.

    What are people's thoughts on the digital only version. I'm tempted to as it's so much cheaper. And I'm lazy with my PS4 and buy digital so I can bounce between games with out getting up….

    Potential prophecy: I think Sony will be looking closely at digital only launch sales. If they go well it could be the nail in the coffin for the following generation not having disc?!?!

    • [Deactivated] on 17/09/2020 - 11:08

      Following generation will be all digital guaranteed.. but maybe not as you know it, I.e. no console, just an app.

    • Munkeyalan on 17/09/2020 - 11:10

      I love not having to change discs, but I also love having the option to pay $70 for discs on release from Big W.

    • CheapOjoe on 17/09/2020 - 11:11

      Yes eventually consoles won't have discs but you buying a digital ps5 version would not make that come any faster. If you buy digital 99% of the time on your PS4 I would suggest buy the digital ps5 and save some money

    • Valowick on 17/09/2020 - 11:11

      It's the fact we're in a transitional period. The discless version is the true vision of Sony. They made their beautiful symmetrical console the digital one, not the disc one. Sony is also showing their hand with the $399 price of it. They can sell at a $100 loss per unit, because they know that it'll make it's money back faster than disc versions.

    • Goremans on 17/09/2020 - 11:20

      Hmm. I agree its definetly where it's all going. But I'm not convinced globally bandwidth would be "across the board" fast enough in assumingly another 6-7years. Though who knows really all interesting guesswork.

      I'm torn, the Aus PSN prices do REALLY suck. Some PS4 games that are super old are at ridiculous prices still.

      May need to stick with PS4 and 2060Super until late 2021 for Christmas sales. 😑

    • Stoibs on 17/09/2020 - 11:27

      Not sure about the PS5, but there's a demo and footage of the Series X/S having multiple suspended games in sleep mode and being able to swap between all of them on the fly.

      Not something really doable with discs, and it's something I would definitely take advantage of personally. (Need that on the switch too..)

      I haven't bought or used a physical game since halfway through the PS3 era, so it was a no brainer choice for me regardless :P

      • Goremans on 17/09/2020 - 11:31

    Thats a decent trade in price for the Pro for those who bought one during the Black Friday Amazon sale last November when they were $349.99. A years worth of usage for $1/week.

      Really tempted to trade it in at full price but I'm also thinking of just waiting a couple years for the PS5 to drop in price.

    • petry on 17/09/2020 - 11:25

      Not compared to what it was recently.

      Have to congratulate both eb games and sony for completely screwing over their customer base in WA - Microsoft so far ahead in their handling of day 1 launch at this point - its embarassing.

        EDIT - just preordered. Only needed $50 deposit which is good, means I can get more savings out of gift cards :)

        • pdcmelb on 17/09/2020 - 12:32

          Would be awesome if you could trade in your ps4 pro when 21 stock arrives and they honour the trade in value but I feel like they will make you do it in Nov to get that value.

            @pdcmelb: This is what is making me hesitant to Pre-Order actually.

            I want them to guarantee Trade in value for 21' But if they won't then there is no point. Just wait till next year when they will run a trade in deal after all the hype.

            Edit* See the posts below mentioning up until the end of Jan on Price guarantee for Trade in. So Pre-ordered.

        • Commander Shepard on 17/09/2020 - 12:35

          I also preordered for the 2021 shipment. I did not expect it to get sold out this quickly. I mainly wanted to replay God of War around Christmas to see if it performs better on PS5. Other then that I couldn't really car about the launch titles.

  • khuzzz on 17/09/2020 - 12:33

    Lol, this is insane… I feel lucky to have ordered at 8am from JB-Hi-Fi as they have now closed they're pre-orderes…

    wonder what they meant with: "Due to stock demand your pre-order does not guarantee availability on the day of release (or a specific date)."

    If they closed pre-orders… doesn't that mean they have sold out of the initial release consoles??
