Comparing the PlayStation 5 Size vs Xbox Series X & Other Consoles

An "estimated" look at the PlayStation 5 size vs the Xbox Series X and other consoles using an intense method of arts and crafts work. Extreme craftsmanship went into pristine cardboard slicing, folding and layout.

Crazy man, the console is going to be f_cking giant, just image the heat.

I wonder how it compares to the PS4 Pro. Both the PS4 and Pro required me to adjust some stuff to make more space but my fat PS3 and X1X fit perfect on my setup.

timotim1780d ago

Exactly...its because of their depth...especially with the Pro. PS5 just looks huge all around. Its the tallest console ever made. Definitely keep an eye on its depth though...going off the pic I linked, it looks crazy.

RazzerRedux1780d ago (Edited 1780d ago )

The side image of the PS5 doesn't look right. According to IGN:

"we estimated the PS5 to have the rough dimensions of 15.74" x 8.79" x 3.97". For comparison, we've estimated the Xbox Series X size to be roughly 11.85" x 6.03" x 6.03". "
https://www.ign.com/article...

So front to back of the consoles is 8.79" vs 6.03". Difference of 2.76". But that side view in your pic suggests the PS5 is double the depth from that of XSX. There is either a discrepancy in IGN's estimate or in that image.

Edit: lol....look closer. The XSX is pushed further into the background than the PS5.

Ok...took me a minute, but that image of the PS5 is total bullshit.

Look at it from the front versus a *real* picture of the PS5. lol....hilarious. Massive fins coming out the top of that bullshit pic.

This is a more accurate side view although this is also a rendered mock up for comparison, but it isn't horribly exaggerated like the pic you found.

Im sure the person who positioned it did so to match up the disc slots. However, the last pic you posted I can see that too. I still think the PS5 looks massive by comparison even in that pic however...especially from the side.

This video SUCKS! A moron with a penis tip hair cut, playing with a piece of cardboard

🤣🤣🤣

Sophisticated_Chap1780d ago

True, he shouldn't be posting videos with that hair. Because of this, he's basically lost all credibility.

Fishy Fingers1780d ago

Interested to see what the actual mass difference.

Melankolis1780d ago

The question is where is the power supply?
Playstation's power supply is always inside the console, but Xbox's is separated from the console until they release the slim version. So, further information is required to make a fair judgement.

RazzerRedux1780d ago

XSX power supply is integrated according to DF.

"The only indication we have of the possible increase in consumption (and to be clear, it is only an implication) are the specs of the integrated power supply."

Melankolis1780d ago

Oh right, i forgot DF already teared down the machine.

MagUk1780d ago

On which console the series x? If so we already know that it’s integrated with in the console via the tear downs.

I think the riskier option is to sell a SP game that you throw some form of MP into just for the sake of it and that ends up affecting the quality of the SP experience. With the plethora of F2P MP games out there, why spend time and money on something when you can focus on the SP experience. Not to say that means they're all good, but at least they're not wasting time with things people don't want in SP games. I doubt anyone bought Veilguard for MP let alone will buy the next Star Wars SP game and expect MP either.

Garethvk13h ago

There is that. I think the modes that were tried for The Last of Us is a good example. But for me a FPS missing multiplayer seems off as it was such a staple FPS, RTS, and sports games are where gamers expect it to be.

Vits14h ago

It's the current logic. People are paying more, for less.

If that "saved" money were actually spent on improving the single-player experience, that’d be one thing. But anyone who actually plays games knows that’s not what happens. We’re in the era of “safe” games, stripped-down, polished packages full of shiny lighting, big setpieces, and all the interactivity of a NES-era background.

Multiplayer modes, extra features, modding tools, things that used to add value for players, keep getting cut. Why? Because they don’t add value for the company. And, as always, the useful idiots will cheer, pay more all while getting less than before. So of course companies will keep doing it.

Garethvk13h ago

Exactly and what gets me is if it is done correctly, multiplay adds money. Ask Activision how much they make on skins and DLC all the while giving a year of free content updates. You get through a Call of Duty campaign in about 8-12 hrs. The multiplayer and frequent content updates are what keeps people playing. I always pop back in when new maps and content release. I do not buy skins and packs but many do. I wonder if we will get the Half-Life 2 mode where Multiplayer is added later. Some may see how the game does and then decide to add it later.

isarai13h ago

I wish they would go back to having SOME simple mp, like instead of the only choices being going all out and gambling on a super roadmaped, season pass, Battle Royale, multiplayer with open world maps and tons of loot OR no multiplayer at all. Why cant we have something in between sometimes? Where's just this very simple PVP probably reusing a sectioned off peace of a level from a single player like they used to do

Garethvk13h ago

I think they all have a place but simpler forms are needed. I wish we would see more co-op play in a campaign.
