Do you think Sony should follow MS's footsteps and give their next gen console to a youtube channel that is the Playstation version of Austin Evans or Brad Sams in order to properly unveil it?

Or do you think they should unveil it themselves focusing both on its technical aspects as well as some of its software features?


You have 2 choices.

 

[farmerboy]

Bring back Kuturagi

 

[demigod]

Give it to tom warren.

 

[FunkMiller]

Sony have made it pretty clear they give less than two fucks about courting influencers.

[Perrott]

Sorry, what? Mark Cerny already unveiled the console's technical features back in march.

 

[I Love Rock 'n' Roll]

There are still PS owners watching DF, for other than retro shows? #dictator

 

[SAMZ]

Just give it to me.

 

[Guilty_AI]

There are still a lot of things we don't know.

 

[mejin]

They really don't need anyone to do a teardown.

 

[Clear]

Yeah there has to be a proper consumer-facing presentation that lays out the OS and system functions yet, so going into detail on the internals at the same time seems like the obvious thing.

 

[BlueXImpulse]

[Wandering Leopard]

They really don't need anyone to do a teardown.

Agree, they'll do their own and post it on their YouTube channel like they did with PS4Pro.

I wouldn't expect:

• Hot chips style event
• updates on new APIs (like MS did with DX12u ie Mesh Shaders, DirectStorage etc...)

 

[Yakuzakazuya]

Shu and Cerny.

 

[Alphagear]

Mark Cerny is the only man on Earth worthy enough to unveil its technical features.

He made the thing.

 

[t_wilson01]

I was so tempted to choose option 4.

Sony should just do it themselves. If not, give NXGamer the honor.

I just want Mark Cerny to talk about some newly opened relaxation spa resort. That's the sort of thing his voice suits.

 

[Matsuchezz]

The teardown should be given by cerny. But give Ps5 to for example mystic playstation channel. It Would be sweet that guy is not bias at all and not a fanboy. They have to play the you tubers card but not to all of them most are rubish. And also there are tech guys out there that are not fanboys and like to go into detail regarding tech. I do not have one in particular.

 

[megreotsugua]

Give it to me.

Seriously though, I wish it had PS1-PS3 BC and then Ken Kutaragi will be the one confirming it.

 

[Orta]

I like Mystic. His channel is definitely playstation-friendly but you'll never hear him throw jabs and talking trash about the competition (unlike the Youtubers MS likes to use for their PR).

 

[CrashNBurn_281]

I would love a teardown, do not hold your breath though.

 

[Birdo]

I want to see Phill Spencer try and fit a PS5 on his bookshelf.

 

[Blitzmangoman]

I want that japanese dude back who did the official teardown of the PS4 (Pro?).
Or Phil the Biceps Spencer.

 

[SaucyJack]

Wired

 

[Sander Cohen]

Kenichiro Yoshida (with subtitles).

 

[alstrike]

Digital Foundry?

They ain't getting nothing but scraps from Sony...

 

[MrS]

Yeah give it to Alex Battaglia to unveil, I’m sure he’ll do a fair and balanced job for you /S

I think you’re overstating the importance of digital foundry OP. Richard and Alex are morons.

Sony should do it themselves because all other options are too incompetent and you don’t want to be in a situation where you’re blaming others if they fuck something up. Do it yourself and be up front about it.

 

[INC]

To all the deep dive people, that way we can watch them all and draw a better conclusion

 

[CrysisFreak]

Timdog with a hammer?
Linus Tech Tips with some IO benchmarks?
Phil Spencer with some projected sales numbers?

 

[onQ123]

Do it themselves & keep these sideshow acts on the side.

 

[TheGreatWhiteShark]

Their ps4pro "stripdown" was a stupid thing, so they should definitely give it to someone.

 

[kikii]

i voted for spencer

 

[TTOOLL]

Linus

 

[Zok310]

Mark Cerny and the console designer.
Dont let no social media hoe eat off their plate.

 

[alabtrosMyster]

King trash gaming! He will use some Phil voice overs to present the PS5!

 

[MasterCornholio]

Christopher Judge should do it.

 

[McCheese]

No King Thrash option? Shenanigans

 

[Skyfox]

I mean it should be DF but I couldn't resist the Phil option when I saw it.

Seriously.

How amazing would it be to see Phil and the major dropping it out of its box onto the floor and kicking the shit out of it!

Legendary. And I'd buy the PS5 right after.

 

[NBNW13]

Not sure how we’ve gotten to this point here but I’d like to offer that having a third party independently evaluate a piece of electronic hardware prior to its release is beneficial to prospective consumers. We should be praising Microsoft for having done so and we should all want Sony to do so and I say that as a person that has owned every console Sony has produced (often multiple iterations of each). This is especially true of a device that has some potential variability in the way it performs certain functions.

Sony’s in such a dominant market position that it won’t matter sales wise, and it really won’t matter in terms of my purchase decision (I’ll get one for the pristine exclusives at a minimum), but we should want these corporations to be as consumer friendly as possible.

 

[alabtrosMyster]

I want to see Phill Spencer try and fit a PS5 on his bookshelf.

The PS5 does not sit on a shelf, it stands under a TV--a giant T.V. so it doesn't look fat.

Only Xboxes sit on shelves.

 

[alabtrosMyster]

I just want Mark Cerny to talk about some newly opened relaxation spa resort. That's the sort of thing his voice suits.

Imagine Cerny doing an interview with Sam Harris from a meditation retreal, everybody would be so zen that the consoles war would be over forever.

 

[Tulipanzo]

Going to disagree with the poll, and I feel they should go with DF.
Obviously have gameplay/feature breakdown on the main PS channel, but DF are the best at covering specs, and have been really positive about PS5.

I don't see why Sony wouldn't give them early access to cover PS5.
