judging from the current news of next gen game size and the price of the expandable storage from other side (RM1K for 1TB)...  it doesn't looks good IMO

- 1TB gonna get filled up very fast
- Still no news from Sony on how we can upgrade the SSD storage, 1TB NVME PCIE 4 SSD also cost a bomb nowadays, RM1k+, doubt Sony is generous enough to add in a secondary storage slot

my tv only 42" 1080p fullhd.  casual gamer.  ok to buy ps5 ka?

Friend working in Sony klcc told me that preorders will be opening soon with only 500 units being brought in. Not sure if that's for whole malaysia or only for the klcc store. Heard that the price for the disc version will be around rm2599. Not sure if that's the final price or not but seems likely.

Because Japanese culture is to not fix what is not broken.

They know that their stronghold is Asia - regardless of how average the PS5 would be in terms of performance or how expensive they price it, it will still have demand. This is arrogance and complacency at best.

If Sony knows that Asia is their stronghold, they should be focusing on building sufficient stocks to meet the demand in Asia - instead of trying to penetrate the European and American market so desperately because they know that Microsoft has already killed it there with the hype of the Series S and X.

I know Sony has a lot of strong followers and supporters, I was a Sony supporter from PS1 to PS4 - I jumped ship to XBOX this year and never looked back. The One X alone is already convincing enough, now eagerly waiting for my Series X to arrive in November.

In terms of building hype, they (Sony) probably don't want to go head to head with Microsoft now, but then again, if not now, when? We are only 1 month away from the next-gen launch, the nearer to the launch day, the more the hype is going to grow stronger and by then, it will be already too late for Sony.

I already made up my mind that I won't be getting any of the next gen consoles at launch, or even this year
but from the barrage of positive reviews on XBsX, now I'm very tempted to get the XBsX first

PS5? meh... I still won't move an inch to get it anytime soon, I don't understand why Sony is still so secretive or slow in their marketing...

SONY MY ask u buy TV first 

It's a good LCD LED TV.  It's got all the good qualities as far as gaming is concerned though:

- Practically no fear of burn-in (though technically it can still happen with LCDs, but it's near impossible)
- Low input lag
- Good enough out-of-the-box accuracy for gamers
- Good contrast ratio (for an LCD that is)
- Good enough upscaling (especially important for those current gen PS4 games that are locked to 1080p)
Still, it's still a mid-entry LCD with a VA panel and that does come with several pitfalls:

- Okay HDR, good enough for dark rooms but will struggle in brighter conditions
- Terrible viewing angles
- Average color volume coverage
- Poor anti reflective coating

Not much of a comparison needed to be frank. The x90H is on a whole other level in comparison to the TU8500.

All the TU8500 does better is contrast ratio. Everything else is significantly behind. The deal breaker is that it's another one of those TVs that doesn't actually do HDR correctly but it's advertised as one that does.

buy ps5 first as my tv still working and waiting for OLED tv price to drop further hahah

its the same since SEA warranty
unless u buy from US

I have backlog of ps4 games that i kept from buying and playing, because i want to play them in ps5.

I own a normal ps4 console , so thats the urgency sigh

sure shortage ? like ps4 pro launching

this is the best option for me. never buy games on day 1 unless you really want to play that game.

sometimes those so called AAA games are not worth day 1 price like that walking simulator death stranding.
