Is that confirmed because I couldn’t find that anywhere
*edit - I did find it, had to go to the Cerny presentation to get a definitive answer. There’s an expansion port

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.

But if the switch was capable of 4K gaming you'd be paying a lot more for it, that's my point. I wouldn't pay for a PS5 until I can switch to 4K but that's just me, you'd save money gaming on the PS4 Pro for the time being, as I'm sure most games will be supported on that also for a good while. Although the PS5 does have that awesome SSD
That’s exactly what I’m saying - it’ll be more expensive. If there’s no additional NVMe slot (because we know there’s no proprietary bit on the back) and you HAVE to replace the 825gb one with say, a 2Tb one, that’s gonna be a huge investment.
*Edit - there’s an expansion port. So yes equally expensive to start with, cheaper down the road.

I bought a pro before I had a 4k tv because it made an online game I play a lot run better. I have a 4k TV, but I'm buying into PS5 for exclusive and better running games, not because of marginally better graphics.
Sticking to my PS4 won't let me play the new ratchet and clank for example. And once we get beyond the launch window less and less games will appear on both systems. This is also why I don't give a stuff that on paper the Xbox CPU is marginally faster than the PS5 one. It's all about the games, but that's just me.
If I really cared about FPS or 4k I would play more games on my PC and not buy either console - but I prefer sitting on my recliner sofa than at my desk
And it isnt a special PS only drive. The only issue is that most PC drives don't currently meet the spec so initially the PS5 suitable drives will be rare and pretty expensive. But the price should come down as PC drives catch up
Just got an email from ShopTo telling me they don’t have the stock for my pre-order there, Very to the rescue.
Textures and such will indeed be better at 1080p. Resolution is separate to that though, that has nothing to do with graphics. But yeah I get that some don't care for resolution when it comes to consoles, but my point is that what you're paying for a a 4K machine so might as well use it to it's capabilities. Games are the most important thing, I agree.
Not necessarily. You're also paying for a machine that's much better equipped to get higher stable performance at lower resolutions, which is a clear benefit. That's assuming most/all games will come with a performance mode but at this point that's highly likely.
Oh yeah definitely, and the SSD is still obviously a big deal. 1440p would be very nice, especially for those first person shooters where you'll need a higher fps.
Anyone still looking the headset you can get it here.

Shopto emailed me earlier today to tell me I'm guaranteed one on release day.
I've also got one confirmed at argos as well, but that's now being sold to a friend who couldn't get a pre-order sorted.

They share BC information because they've no information on new games because they don't have any
How can it not support cross-saves?
That seems bizarre if they're the same game? Is it a game or console issue?

Difference in directories maybe?
Same! I've only ever ordered digital items from ShopTo, nothing like a new console, but their pre-pre order earlier in the year was too good to pass up on. Highly rated for this sort of thing? (deliveries and whatnot)
Only ordered one game from them before but that came on launch day no problems
Different Sku.
Good if you love trophies though as you can get separate trophies for both PS4 and upgraded version.
Just feels like a very obvious thing that should be expected. Is it really that much effort?
This sort of shit annoys me more than it maybe should. It's like they almost give us what we want only to mess up some basic thing like cross saves. What the hell? I'm curious to see if that's on a game by game basis or a console limitation. Leaning towards the second, which is not good. Just keep it simple, idiots.
Does this save issue apply to all games being played on PS5? So my God Of War save that’s backed up in the cloud somewhere will not be recognised on the PS5 GoW game we get as part of the PS+ collection?!
No because that’s not been upgraded. But they haven’t clarified what game it applies to or how it works. Just Spiderman miles morales save on PS4 cannot be transferred to PS5 and the same with Yakuza 7.
But if you play PS4 version on ps5 you can? I think Sony need to address this
Yeah BC and OS are the key things that need addressing. I expect that to happen soon.
Bit of a cluster f. To not be able to go on the PSN store, go to library, and install games I've bought onto the PS5 is a huge oversight in design and architecture.
Yep, I got my release day guarantee earlier, too.
@afrocentricity @Bojan11 - Cheers for the heads-up on the 'pre-order your pre-order' thingymajig back in June. *thumbsup*
You can do this can't you?
Pretty sure that’s exactly what you can do.
I don't understand what you are saying? If you have a PS4 digital game on your PSN account, you can download it and play it on PS5.

You can pre-order Miles Morales on PS4 on PSN, there is no option to pre-order a PS5 digital copy. Its a couple of quid cheaper than buying the physical copy.
If I buy this and play it on PS5 do I get the full PS5 version? Or a lower spec PS4 version which is playable on PS5? There has been a lot of talk about the upgrade for the old game, but I haven't read anything about the new one.

You need to order the ultimate edition which will be more.
You can buy the PS4 version, but it'll only play the ps4 version on the PS5 unless you order the "remastered" version which comes with the ultimate.
Confusing I know.
No that's to get Spiderman. You can buy MM on PS4 and upgrade for free to the PS5 edition (and take your save with you).
Oh i thought that was just for Spiderman 1, which I have already played.
Ah ok good!
Sony are giving every PS5 owner something like 15 digital PS4 games when you login to PS+ on a PS5
Any news of new stock for pre-order coming?
Not yet, last time the news come out the evening before.
Sony have now told each retailer how many systems they will get. I haven't heard anything from Argos yet, which I assume is good news. Some folks who preordered down South won't even get theirs until 2021 which is a bit naughty from the retailer, I thought some stores would end up taking more orders than they could realistically fill.

2021 christ I was thinking it might be a couple of weeks at worst..
That is only 1 company in the Republic. I find it hard to believe there wont be any PS5s on the shelves between the middle of November and Christmas.
