Sony Interactive Entertainment: Our Improved PlayStation 5 Packaging
The materials used for the PS5 console and accessories packaging are designed to be fully recyclable, and depending on the product, PS5 packaging per unit is between 93-99% plastic-free overall (by weight). Whilst we know there is still work to be done, there are a number of improvements we implemented to achieve this:

Whilst we know there is still work to be done, there are a number of improvements we implemented to achieve this:
- Designing packaging to be fully recyclable
- Avoiding expanded polystyrene or plastic trays by using card inserts and paper pulp cushion trays
- Replacing plastic cable ties with paper cable ties
- Eliminating plastic protection bags used for cables and instruction manuals where feasible
- Substituting plastic display windows for closed card boxes for PS5 accessories
- Incorporating folding, rather than glued, hanger tabs to outer packaging
Our Improved PlayStation 5 Packaging
Over the last 50 years plastic use worldwide has increased around twentyfold, but recycling rates remain low at around 9%.1 This has contributed to increased pollution of the world’s oceans, a matter of growing urgent concern. Action is needed now to reverse course and protect endangered marine...

All that eco-friendly plastic free packing got put back into the PS5 case.

What do you expect them to make the PS5 with? I mean you can try using cardboard but I don't think it will work.
The point is they reduced the amount of plastic that they used with the packaging.

It seems like they fixed the framerate stutters that were present in previous trailers. Looks fun.

You don't throw PS5s away, you do throw packaging away.

Whom here remembers The House of the Dead
Not keen on the visuals but used to play it on arcades a lot back in the day. Hopefully they'll have the original as an unlockable.

Wow that all sounds might impressive.
Heard Battlefield 6 might come to GamePass day 1. If so HOLY SHIT, can't wait.

It is the actual packing since launch.
That is the one compared with the “premium” package from the other side.
There is a new one using the recycled polypropylene in the last pic but it is not being sold yet.

Not really. For me especially because I live in a condo, making the HOA the effective owners of the exterior walls of my unit. But even in a housing subdivision, you'll have a lot of common ground owned by the HAO which is a problem since some digging will need to be done to get the fiber to individual homes.

For a game that will have millions pumped in to make, only 15k signatures after 6 days kinda proves sonys point in my opinion...Already crossed the 15,000 mark.

That’s quite high for these sorts of things.
The petition to remove Jim Ryan started over two months ago and only has 2k signatures for example.

Didn’t that game sell like 20M+ copies?
Horizon would have made a better example since both are new IP’s.

The benefits of a private subdivision still outweigh the cons, in Florida anyway. On the bright side, I had been paying $70/mo. for 200mbit but the HOA negotiated a group rate for internet and added it to the cable package that was already included. Now I have the 400mbit package for "free", but the monthly HOA fee went up $20/mo. So a savings of $50/mo. Every cheap bastard likes that.

Damn. Thats pretty good. I am gonna suggest this to my HOA.The benefits of a private subdivision still outweigh the cons, in Florida anyway.

I am paying $35 for 100 Mbps but i have to threaten to leave them every couple of years to get the discount rate. Otherwise it would be around $60.

I think this technology is far awayWill we see AMD's FidelityFX running on PS5 in The Village showcase today.
and can it work really I think ps5 and series x both do not have cores for this on gpu !!
Neo Blaster

I don't know how AMD tech works, but does it use discrete cores just like DLSS on Nvidia cards?
MistBreeze
Member
Im not a tech head
but maybe they use the same cores ? somehow??

I doubt it, seeing that AMD doesn't produce consumer cards with dedicated hardware for low-precision integer programming. I'm assuming it's all just based on the latest revision of rapid packed math, that would allow it to run on older cards too, just less efficiently.

Though didnt he actually say that DG2 was cancelled and they were working on a new IP. And then stuck to his guns after Jeff Ross said it was still in dev? This actually lines up with what he said.

Sony is doomed. All the sold PS5s are sitting in scalper warehouses according to industry expert 4chan.

Ask me about my wife's perfect butthole
Honestly would be perfectly fine w/ Bend Studio making a non-Days Gone open world game w/ vehicles. Just PLEASE don't litter it w/ Sony's boring ass cookie cutter story mission layouts.
