Re: New PlayStation 5 Details Revealed, Arrives Next Holiday Season

I could see the rumors of left over storage being around 620+GB being true with how much OS and stuff is being reserved. For me, it doesn't matter. I focus on one game at a time. There's games I know when I'm done, I'm done. I never had an issue with storage space since the start of PS3 days. I don't see myself ever buying expandable storage.

Ummmm ok lol.. I use my Apple TV 4K for streaming most of my stuff. So you’re ok with both consoles running Netflix in HDR at all times even when the movies or programs aren’t in HDR? Or how the PS4 doesn’t support Dolby vision or Dolby atmos? Or how consoles are the last to ever get updated? Or how consoles stream at lower bit rates? I can continue. Consoles are the last things anyone should use for streaming IF they want the best quality and experience.

Gotcha. Makes sense.

Personally, I’ve never noticed a single thing you mentioned or have a clue what you even are referring to for most of your post. I don’t watch much TV and not much of a console gamer, so literally never knew that until you guys said that. Glad I can enjoy it regardless lol.

Exactly. I use my consoles for gaming and that’s it.

Me too. I go a step further though.....I will only be using my LG 4K CX OLED for gaming. Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5. Nothing else. Hehehe.

Storage isn't really an issue for me either. I always have the current year of 2K, Madden and The Show and a shooter like COD or Battlefield. The rest is just a rotation of single player games that I usually delete afterwards. I'm keeping my Pro and Base PS4 as well so I'll keep the backwards compatible games like Crash 4 on those and save the space.

Yeah same here. I play a lot of single player games. But, I only play them for the campaign modes. I don't try to 100% or care about trophies or new game plus modes. So after I beat the campaign, I delete the game and move on to the next game. I am a heavy game renter. I love single player games, but I rent them. If I want to play them again, it is usually 2-4 years later. So, the only games that stays in my storage are the ones I know I play heavily. Even then, they are yearly titles. So they get deleted when next game comes. I just keep the save files. Hopefully the game installations are a lot faster though.

I plan on buying Spiderman Miles Morales Ultimate Edition. But, I plan on selling it after a year or sooner. I prefer single player games, but they don't have the same replay ability as sports games.

PS5 having low storage is a huge issue, just because some of you claim you play just 1 or 2 games. That is a major minority

PS5 and XSX owners both will need to buy external storage

One huge advantage that XSX has which I do not think PS5 has is that you do not have to buy an SSD as you can just use your current external drive to play all bc games and store all your games and move them to the internal drive when you want to play them which takes about less then 10 minutes compared to downloading them all over again.

Re: New PlayStation 5 Details Revealed, Arrives Next Holiday Season

I can definitely say I'm in the minority. I do not consider my self a hardcore gamer at all. But I can definitely see the concern with storage. A few huge games on your SSDs and you're SOL. If a BC isn't optimized for next gen, it makes more sense to play it on a external drive.

But, we still have to remember that PS5 has modular installations. Sony hasn't really talked about it since last year. I guess they are waiting until next UX reveal. When they state that Available storage is most likely in the 600sGB and there's an uproar, I think they will then talk about modular installations. For me, an solo offline player, If I can save storage by only installing portions of game I play, that's a game changer. I don't play CoD, but If I could only download the Campaign, that would save tons of storage

The PS5 allows external harddrives. We just dont know if you can store PS5 games on it as well. It is assumed you can.

Yeah there’s no huge advantage to Xbox in storage department. I would even argue the PS5 has the better solution as its internal and just as easy to install as Xbox’s plug and play drive.

I thought I read that you can’t actually swap out the internal hard drive on a PS5. You have to use the external storage slot if you want to add more storage.

Correct, the PS5 hard drive is soldered on.

The main internal SSD is literally soldered onto the motherboard and isn't going anywhere. The SSD expansion bay is where you can insert an additional SSD for additional storage space but Sony has yet to release the official list of which SSD's are compatible.

I never said you could swap out the internal drive. I said it’s internal meaning you pop the side off, and insert it into the slot vs Xbox external plug in the back method. As Peter said, the SSD is soldered onto the board and you aren’t replacing it.

Internal in my sense was meaning inside the casing vs outside the casing.

Sorry but that is nonsense, casual mom and day and kid are not going to know anything about internal solution to SSD.

But on XBOX you can bet that next to the console at stores the external solution will be offered and is just plug and play. Not take apart your console I mean come on now

Re: New PlayStation 5 Details Revealed, Arrives Next Holiday Season

You lift a damn corner and slide it. Stop acting like you have to disassemble the console. Go watch the tear down video if you’re still confused. You always so negative brother. Lol.
