Doct0r - would you be open to doing the competition as a raffle of those with the same guess if there is more than one with the same date? That might help those that want to choose the same as someone else, but might end up picking a random date instead (lol they're all random..)
Yes! I'll be taking everyone who guessed the correct date and putting all the names into a hat, so if you've guessed the same date as another member don't worry.

Transistor you said that rounding up dates from posts that you weren't tagged in is like herding cats (or at least you were agreeing with someone who compared it to that). You also mentioned that you have a system for that. Is it CTRL+F "bet", "date", "March", "reveal"? Haha =P

I'm not much of a betting man, but out of curiosity, the reveal would have to be on the chosen date? Or is it a "on or before" thing?

Transistor March 10th, 2020 (I put the year just to be sure lol)

I always thought we'd have (and still hope for) more info this month, but TiG 's comment above made me rethink things.

In all seriousness.

It seems seem Sony is revealing things when they 'have' too and get ahead of leaks.
The first reveal was in April 2019 when they were sending out devkits.
The second reveal was in Oct 2019 when I think they were sending out controllers?

So, I think Sony will post the specs via blog/email/wired right before GDC. When there is more discussion with developers what this can actually do.

Then they will probably have E3 like showcase in Mayish or Early June?
my thoughts exactly... that's why I chose the date I did.

Yeah i have gone for beginning of March for that reason, i also thought perhaps Klee heard end of Feb and that might have been a target date to get some stuff ready to show. probably fucking miles off and they do it on Christmas in July on QVC or something.

Why not participate for the hell of it. March 27th is my completely random and most likely horribly wrong guess.

So, since we have more than 80 votes in OP, some statistic analysis is already in order. :) Packed our my leet scientific skillz for it - enjoy:

So ERA bets for end of February as of now. But! Middle of the normal distribution of the data is actually on March 12! (which is coincidentally much close to my predicted 10th of March):
:)))

P.S. The dates are of course converted to the only proper date format - European one. :)

On the flip side, Sony could do a Playstation Meeting Event (technical details) but I feel that in articles they have already done that.
So maybe one more article on detailed specs.
So when they do an actual event, it's going to a big E3 style show. Showing games, the price and release date.

However there may be other interesting features that they what to demo. Maybe a new version of PS Now, UI, sharing, etc.

Let's see.

The optimism in this thread is out of control, really tempted to pick a post E3 date

I'm not expecting to see a full reveal of the PS5 until after E3 when Microsoft reveals more about the New Xbox. So I wouldn't expect anything until June or July. Also I wouldn't be shocked if the coranavirus has altered their plans due to manufacturing being shut down.

Don't we know for certain a lot more that? Like both have hardware based Ray Tracing, PS5 is at least BC with PS4. PSVR works on PS5. Adaptive triggers. haptic feedback, etc.

Shouldn't this just be a PS5 thread at this point, the entire thing so far is just "guess the ps5 reveal date". Though to be honest I'm not sure why they were ever merged to begin with.
