According to Generation Eight.com:
A new rumor started based on a supposedly leaked internal Sony document detailing the specifications of the PS4. First off, I would be willing to bet my bottom-dollar that IF such a document really is detailed out somewhere at Sony's HQ, it is guarded very heavily, maybe even under penalty of death for looking at it without authorization? Okay, jokes aside, the point is, sheets like this very rarely prove real, but it DOES occasionally happen.
So why call this one out as fake? There are a few big reasons why, five in total.
XDefiant was originally supposed to be out in summer 2023, but following a seemingly-successful beta test in April of that year, it was bumped to October 2023, and then delayed again to an unspecified future date. In its February 2024 financial report, Ubisoft slated XDefiant for launch in the fourth quarter of its 2023-24 fiscal year, which ended March 31.
A week before that date arrived, rumors surfaced that the game would be delayed yet again, and a few days later Ubisoft made it official.
"The game has always been community-first, with player feedback as a top priority," the development team said in the update. "While we hoped to go live by the end of March, there are still some improvements that we need to test before that."
Ubisoft said it's "finishing preparations" for a server stress test that will run for 12 hours on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. "After this short test, we expected to be able to lock a launch date and start sharing more about exciting content XDefiant has to offer in the future!"
The previous news was from the team/rumors this is ubisoft themselves now saying the game is delayed again no new date set but they will have a stress test on a date that has not been set.
So the game is delayed to _____ TBD
Network stress test at ____ TBD
Ubisoft we make games whenever for whoever we just do not care

I'm just going to be honest here and say what people seem to not want to, XDefiant success is going to be short-lived and it's because it's a game that's going to be under Ubisoft's umbrella. The development team can be absolute rockstars, but with Ubisoft steering the ship it's not going to go anywhere.
It could be a truely amazing game (it won't be) but with Ubisoft it will be monitized within a inch of its life.
The game is dead move on. It's the same with the Finals. These short period hype games doesn't last.
A new rumor suggests the next Xbox console is currently being tested by developers in South Korea.
If true, hopefully a fully fledged next gen console and not some unnecessary mid gen refresh system.
It could be that rumored Xbox portable, who knows
Could be the refresh console perhaps? I doubt it'll be the new console. Might be the portable rumored device.
Regardless the fact we're talking about new hardware already is absolutely pathetic. Barely any current gen stuff out and the stuff that is out or coming is at 30 fps or doesn't, doesn't look current gen and what have you.
All we're doing is chasing power and not creating the games to harness said power.
Worse generation so far easily.
It was reliably leaked just a month ago that MS hadn't signed contracts for next gen till literally weeks ago- the same leakers that correctly leaked that hi fi rush and pentiment and sea of thieves were going to ps5. So this is very very very unlikely- if not impossible. Also it's way too early....
GB: "The Switch is inarguably in its final stages of its lifecycle. As such, we try to speculate what its successor would look like from a specs perspective."
It’s just a guessing game until Nintendo officially reveals the console. Better to keep expectations low.
My only expectation would be it can play existing switch carts and digital games. Like 3DS did with DS
We have to be realistic given the requirements Nintendo usually considers when deploying a new console the last few years.
It must be power efficient and small in form factor in addition to being hybrid (therefore lowered specs in comparison with other consoles). This means that it will not become as hot when playing as say the Steam Deck.
It must be relatively cheap (not in the 500$ price range but lower)
It must be backwards compatible with Switch
Therefore I am expecting base PS4 power level with newer hardware and upscaling tricks. Anything more powerful will eat the battery rather quickly especially if the rumours about the 8 inch screen are true.
But consider having a Zelda with Ghosts of Tsushima level of graphics! That would be simply stunning
The 20GB should have been enough to anyone to know it's a fake.
I do not think the first point is really proof it is fake. Yes developers had a hard time to develop for it but it has turned out pretty well for everyone. I think the main reasons this is fake is the ram (point 2), the 2160p (point 3: seriously that doesn't make sense considering those tvs that are capable for this output and are affordable are unlikely to hit the market for the next 10 years) and the backward comparability (point 5: the number one reason why for me this is fake because it goes against business practises that Sony has adopted which are becoming very profitable)
I'm not tech expert, but the "2160p" part of the specs don't even sound close to legitimate. It looks to me like whoever wrote that sheet just added 1080p + 1080p to get the number. Again, I'm no tech expert, but past resolutions don't just multiply to get the next thing:
480 + 480 is NOT 720
720 + 720 is NOT 1080
And plus, isn't the next big resolution 8K?
As excited as I would be to hear some of the things on the sheet to come true, there are way too many things that scream fake...
haha.... 20GB of total RAM.... pssh
Who really thought those specs were legit?
