I didn't think it would be a big deal for me if I didn't get the PS5 for pre-order, but now I am kind of kicking myself. I will have to get a new TV to get the most of the power of the PS5 and the TV I have I still love, but it's doesn't have the specs to deliver what PS5 needs.

Can anyone suggest a good TV to take advantage of the next gen consoles?

Yep I'm in the same boat here. I feel like I just bought a new TV haha. But I definitely want the most out of these consoles. I think I'm grabbing this bad boy...

You likely want an HDMI 2.1 TV.

I'm STILL waiting for FedEx. Getting impatient. I'm starting to turn into my dogs. Every little noise out front I'm running to the window looking. :laugh:

As for the television talk, I'm in a gaming group on FB and the overwhelming winner in television talk is the LG CX OLED. I have no experience with it but from what I keep hearing it is a fantastic gaming TV. At very least, as The Ominous mentioned, you want 120hz. Also HDMI 2.1 but I'm not sure there are that many TVs out there with it yet.

I can tell you my main gaming TV is a Sony 4K and it has been solid. It's a middle of the road 120hz model and it has a sharp picture. My "man cave" TV is a Samsung 4K tv. It's a bottom of the line (I paid $350 for it lol) and while I feel it does great for it's price point, it's only 60hz and it does feel a little flat in color sometimes. But hey, it was a entry level 4K TV so I can't complain too much.


YES!!!!!! As I was typing this there was a doorbell ring!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT'S HERE!!!!!!!!!! :flagwave:

We did it boys. Now, since I was a PS4 guy, I need to download some games from gamepass.
Nice, that's pretty sharp looking, what games you going to start out with? Some nice choices depending on your tastes; RE7, Star Wars Jedi Order, The Outer Worlds ( I just played this and was a good game), Doom Eternal. I was hesitant they would allow these good selling AAA titles to be on there so early tbh but they're proving me wrong on the game pass; they're making this legitimate.

I bought Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales for the PlayStation 5 and now I just won Demon's Soul...

:dance:



I got both as well.

I planned on taking off work the next couple days but Walmart refuses to confirm my order.

I've never played a souls game so I don't know what im in for but it looked too good not to buy and I want to see some graphics really flex on the next gen console.

I got COD coming on Friday too lol.. So i'm really hoping to make this weekend about Video games.

That new Assassins Creed is looking unbelievable but I want to play Spiderman, Souls, and God Of War first. It may take me until the Summer to finish those 3.

I've never really been into single player games but im forcing it on myself to start the new console. I may quit and be back to COD/Sports games/Rocket League quick tho.
