PS5 site is up
https://www.playstation.com/en-gb/explore/ps5/
“We've begun to share some of the incredible features you can expect from PlayStation 5, but we're not quite ready to fully unveil the next generation of PlayStation. Sign up below to be among the first to receive updates as we announce them, including news on the PS5 release date, PS5 price and the upcoming roster of PS5 launch games.”
Seems that there is no February or even March reveal. Xbox and PS are playing the wait and see game.

Not a big fan of the Wonderful 101 but hoping that the sequel to Vanquish and Nier get announced.

Sold but wondering if they cut off the Mars’s moon mission. Thought it was the beginning.

Somebody is in serious trouble as the barcode is shown. It is unique and can be traced.
As for the design, it is not so bad. I will wait for a slim version since there are no exclusives after 2 years. My main console with be the PS5 which will be bought after a year of launch.

You are not the only person. I ordered call of duty modern warfare from Flipkart and all I got was an empty box case (no ps4 case and Disc) after 1 week of waiting. At least I will get a refund after investigation.
moral of the story. Buy from Prime and FK assured sellers only. Damn the e-commerce sites really lost their glory days last year when the regulations kicked in.
Also open your packages in front of the delivery agent so you have a credible witness.-

Leak from reddit about PS5 event..
-The event will be held at the Sony hall theatre on the 12th of February. Expect a short teaser to come out in the next two weeks.
-The press already knows about it and they will be able to test games and write articles. There will be a lot of news and iterviews with key figures like Mark Cerny and Hermen Hulst.
-The event will be presented by Geoff Keighley and it will be a very big show. After all you have to consider that Sony has been quiet for quite sometime now.
-Sony's strategy has been that not to reveal everything in one shot. Things like price, launch date and shape of the console will still be unknown after the PS meeting.
Specs:
-CPU: 8 core/16 threads at 3.6 ghz based on a Zen 2 architecture
-GPU: "Big Navi"/RDNA1 based with some features from RDNA2 like RT and VRS, 12.2 TF at 1.8 ghz
-Memory: 18GB DDR6 at 576gb/s and 4gb of DDR4 for the OS (Sorry HBM believers)
-1 TB SSD. The SSD is a proprietary solution similar to a cartridge and you will be able to purchase them separately in a way similar to an old memory card from the PS2 era(1tb, 2tb and 3 tb variants). It is very fast: 5gb/s
-It has a separate RT core just for the audio, this is something that Cerny and the audio people at Sony (Audiokinetic) insisted on. A new headphones will be made from Sony, specifically designed for the ray traced audio in PS5 games.
-Overall, the PS5 is a much more balanced machine than the PS4 pro. This is much more important than just brute force as devs will be able squeeze much much more from the hardware.
Games:
-First game announced for the PS5 will be from Bluepoint, Demon's Souls.
The trailer will start with a dragon flying through the ruins of an ancient city before landing on a bridge destroying part of it, the camera will then move to a character in a knight armor. The dragon will spit fire at the knight that will be parrying it with his shield.
The trailer ends with a voice saying "The old one is calling for thee" revealing the Demon's souls logo, available at launch.
Very impressive tech on showcase:, RT reflection all over the knight's armor
-Ubisoft will announce their new AC title, Assasin's Creed: Kingdom. As you already know it is set in northern europe with historical and mythological elements. The trailer is not really a trailer but a long gameplay (10+ mins).
The game focuses on being a better RPG than its predecessors with multiple endings and more meaningful choices for better roleplay. Immersion is also a big focus, Ubisoft has created a believable world based on the kingdom of Ragnar Sigurdsson (better known as Lothbrok) as king of Denmark.
NPCs have realistic routines and behaviours based on multiple situations they can be found in (finding shelter from the rain, fleeing their village after a raid from enemy soldiers are some examples).
All animations have been enhanced. Now the main character (male or female like in Odyssey) moves differently based on the enviroments they are in. Animations are really similar to something you can find in a ND game with the character touching the wall at their side if they get to close it or struggling to walk through snow or mud.
As many other games, AC:Kingdom will use the haptic triggers to simulate the action of pulling the rope of a bow or swinging an heavy weapon.
There are levels, but they are handled like in Skyrim or Kingdom come where you don't require a certain level to enter an area or fight a boss. Here you can access the whole world from the start and fight all the enemies, of course it will be very hard because your character will be very unexperienced and at first they will handle certain weapons with struggle, it will get better the more they use them.
I got mentioned something about ray tracing being used to eliminate clipping of the various clothes on the character's bodies, but I don't know anything other than it may be a thing on the next gen versions of the game.
Available at launch, but after the current gen versions.
-Gran Turismo 7 will be announced featuring full VR and RT support, native 4k and 60 fps. It will be a technical showcase for the console. Available at launch.
It features a single player carreer like the old GT games and a multiplayer mode similar to the sport mode in GT sport. The partnership with the FIA continues and the one with Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes becomes even stronger (Lewis and the Mercedes brand are on the cover of the game and a big part of the single player carreer).
-New R&C game announced from Insomniac. Full RT support and sequel to the remake, but part of a new trilogy. Semi-open world with pilotable ships. It looks even more like a Pixar movie, this time on a way bigger scale. Available in 2021
-Capcom will show a demo of their updated RE engine and announce Dragon's Dogma 2 exclusively on the PS5. Deep Down was not all to waste and Capcom wisely decided to build upon it and create this new DD. It's a really impressive game technically. Full open world with fights and monsters similar to a Monster Hunter game. It will run at 60 fps on PS5.
It's unclear if the exclusivity deal has a limit or not. I'm willing to bet it will come out on Xbox Series X/S after a while
-Shuhei Yoshida will showcase lots of indies coming to PS4 and PS5 as part of the new "PSIndies" intiative at SIE. Games such as: Sky:children of the light, Inaka project, a new game from Jonathan Blow, Lost Soul aside and the new game from Ken Levine studio (not really an indie, but it will still be present in this short segment).
-TLOU: Factions will be revealed, coming to PS4, PS5 and PC these holidays. It is a multiplayer only title made to replace the "Factions" mode of the original TLOU. It features an open world similar to games like DayZ, but with the love and care that you can expect expect from a team like ND.
It will feature: different seasons like Forza Horizon 4 (each will come with its pros and cons), clan support, a battle pass, a fully destructible map, lots of depth for roleplay (players will be able to cover various roles in their games: doctors, bounty hunters, traders, mercenaries for the various groups of players, soldiers ecc.), the players will be able to build camps and even "addomesticate" clickers and runners. 4k/60 with RT audio on PS5 and 1080 30 on PS4/pro. Cross play is being experimented (the difference in framerate may be an issue).
-Sony reveals a new team based in San Diego and their new game, Uncharted. A sequel to U4, but with different characters and a few cameos from the old games. Just a teaser will be shown featuring exotic locations from all around the world and glimpses at veichles both aerial and terrestrial. No release date given.
-Activision announces Crash Bandicoot:worlds on PS4 and PS5 for then end of the year (think Mario galaxy, but with Crash Bandiccot) and confirms that COD will be back at the end of the year on PS5 and in partnership with PS once again.
-Square Enix shows an impressive tech demo of a new version of the luminous engine featuring RT shadows, reflections and lighting along with 4k textures and realistic facial animations. Very reminiscent of the aestethic you can find in a FF game, but no real announcement is made (for now).
-Guerilla announces Killzone: Breach. A mp only title for PS5 and PC. The influence from games like R6 can be seen a lot during the trailer. Full destructible enviroment and a "War" mode that features up to 80 players in a fully destructible arena (Remember that first Crackdown 3 demo?). Available at launch.
-Mark Cerny announces full backwards compatibility with PS4/3/2/1/VR and that PS Vita and PSP are in the works. The PS4/2/1 whole lineup will be fully compatible from launch. As for PS3 games, they will be made compatible regularly by Sony in a way similar to how Xbox already does it on Xbox One with 360 games. All the games will receive technical enhancments like 4k resolution, better AA and 60 fps. Demos for TLOU 2, RDR1, Jak 2 and the original GT are shown briefly.
-Last announcement will be a small teaser with in-game graphics of Horizon 2. The teaser shows an older Aloy meditating on the top of a Mountain before being attacked by a huge machine and hijacking a thunderbird in order to ride it and fly around the huge machine to fight it. 2021
-Please note that all games that I've listed are exclusive to the PS5 unless I've said otherwise.
-Don't expect any PSVR2 news. VR will be mentioned as you can see, but it is still a bit early for PSVR2.The more I read the more bullshit it is. Games seem very sketchy.

The only major ip I remember from top of my head to have 2 games this gen is gears..
You can count uc4 and the lost legacy aswell as the dlc is meaty itself.. Though its debatable..

Though the lost legacy is meaty and excellent game, it is still a side project by a B team. Naughty Dog made 3 games/1 DLC last gen and 2.5 games this gen. Less games are being dished out by these studios.

Was thinking of buying One plus 7T in this sale but there isn't any great discount on it. In fact haven't found a single worthy stuff to buy. Will wait for S10 lite and One plus 8 now.

The best time for sale on electronic goods is in Diwali. All other sales are essentially clearance of smaller stuff. -

Hmmm. Idk I don't think this sale is that good.
5000 minimum spending and 1500 max discount? That's kinda weak.
Anyway I have stuff worth 3500-4000 to buy now.
I was gonna buy a camera but there isn't a discount and max card discount of 1500 isn't enough.

Yeah I dont like these shady and cheap tactics. They are become a usual practice.

Perfectly understandable why Sony is taking this step.
The number of games out this gen is much fewer than in the last 2 gen due to higher costs, longer development times and risks of game development. Studios shut down after one flop.
Last gen we had trilogies - Mass effect, Dead Space, Gears of war, 3 mainline Halos, and several sequels. Now this gen. we have one or 2 for big titles.
I believe that it won’t hurt consoles sales if they are timed exclusives. Then I am no console or any fan fanatic like in some ps users or real life religions/cults and I am happy if more people have access to play such games.

I need to buy 2 smart bulbs, E27 - screw in bulbs.
Both Philips and Wipro cost 650. Which should I buy? I think this is a pretty decent price, and I have an SBI card.

You need to have a minimum Rs 5000 in your cart to get the SBI discount. The minimum value and max discount are hidden for a good reason.same for ICICI in Flipkart

Looking awesome!! Carlos campaign or segment confirmed!

Any reason why all their games have been delayed?
The usual tagline “Polish”

Hope the release date is set in stone considering the flurry of delays. No big game till March 20.

This might be silly question

Yes. Xbox series X is pretty much confirmed. See the disc drive in the console.
Hope you know how to google.

Last E3 had 66k attendance, the one before that had 69k. Gamescom for comparison has over 350k attendance. Plus they have higher viewership because unlike E3, most live events happen when the rest of the world is awake.
Lower attendance is explained by Sony skipping last E3 and not a customer focused event like Gamescom. Agree with you on the viewership due to its timings.

Avengers seem to be need it but totally unexpected for FFVII remake.

Maybe because they don't have much to show at event like E3, major exclusives this year they have only 2 for Ps4 ghost of tsushima and the last of us 2. They might reveal more of PS5 later this year in their private press conference.
Nothing to do with games. Sony and ESA are in disagreement regarding differences in their visions and strategy. Jason claims that it remains a driving factor since last year.
For me I believe Sony is quite arrogant and over confident since it has no serious rival. Let’s hope that it announces its own presser to showcase PS5 instead hundred of small conferences.

Though as not as great as it was, Zomato Gold is still good in Bangalore.
Yes in some restaurants, prices are inflated. Also they charge for packaging/convenience charges which are free in takeway or dine in which eats into the small discounts like 50-80 like in Swiggy

Rage 2 got bad reviews so it is expected. I do not preorder games unless it is from Naughty Dog. As for Doom, I got a feeling that it will do well.
Bethesda might turn things around this year with Doom Eternal, Starfield and of course Wolfenstein 3 (possibly the only trilogy released in current gen)
