Has it ever been mentioned if base PS4 games that will be backwards compatible will actually be the Pro versions on PS5?

 

I'm expecting some major fuckup to happen at launch that people will go crazy about. This could be one.

Nobody cares mate. Backwards compatibility barely registers with normal people. It's only excitable fanboys (who probably keep their old consoles anyway) that get excited over it.

 

New consoles are all about the new and shiny.

In the initial tech briefing they said the PS5 GPU can run in a PS4 mode and a PS4 Pro mode, presumably only falling back to PS4 if the software doesn’t natively support Pro. 
 

Implicitly the console is always in a “boost” mode compared to PS4, because he cited that as the reason why they wanted to test games.

Not sure if serious.

Will tonight’s State of Play be on Twitch? It’s generally been a better quality platform than YouTube for previous live streams, but I can’t seem to find it using the search and it doesn’t appear to be a thing on the official PlayStation channel. 
 

Edit - no sooner posted than I found IGN’s stream, nevermind. :)

It's on the PlayStation Twitch channel as usual. By far the most reliable stream, I've found.

Godfall looks like it's running on the same engine as God of War.


but turned down a bit and with less artistry. Being fair, it’s probably been developed with a tenth of the budget.
