This won't go down well with some..
The SSD in the PS5 is quite a good marketing tool tho, while Xbox is the more powerful console Sony can always say something along the lines of being the fastest console. Ppl can think that means the most powerful.
Again, we all know it's about the games, that's pretty obvious, this thread is about,
Former Frostbite Dev on PS5 Specs: ‘Disconnect Between Numbers And What It’s Capable of’
It's about specs.
We hear constantly on N4G about Sonys game exclusives & how great they are, we don't have to be reminded about that or how much Sony & Nintendo has sold.
It seems that as soon as someone points out on a thread about PS5 or Xbox Series X specs...
Apocalypse, your the one missing the point.
This thread is talking about the power of the console & what the PS5 is capable of.
Ppl are pointing out that the Xbox is powerful as well & has better specs overall than the PS5.
We aren't talking who had the most gofty games the last gen & we are not talking about how the switch is outselling the Xbox One & X.
Yes Series X does have advantages in certain areas and that's what was being ...
Spurg you beat me to it. What an absolutely awful written article.
I've said for ages that Selling the Xbox under Sega in Japan would be a great help.
They have zero taste for anything but failure in every sense of the word.
The richest company in the world tho. Hmmm.
I don't think Microsoft will announce the price until Sony announces theirs. I think they are going to equal or beat the PS5 price.
I be very surprised if Microsoft goes first..
Wave, you got a link to the drop in games sold?
Majority of devs love the service & find it gets their game noticed & has increased sales. They wouldn't put their games on there if it was worse for them.
Loads of ppl buy an Xbox or PlayStation & never buy a new game. They buy preowned. 1st party or 3rd don't make nothing from this. The average person don't buy more than 3 new games in a whole year & that don't mean new releases either.
How can you call it an unsustainable model. I'm sure Microsoft has worked out the numbers.
There's millions of ppl buy a PS4 or Xbox & only ever buy used games. Get these on GP and Microsoft gets money.
There's some who buy just 1 new game in a whole year. How much did Microsoft make off that 3rd party sale?
GP makes ppl buy more games according to devs..
The SSD in the PlayStation 5 is great but it's not going to make it more powerful than an Xbox Series X.
I know it's not popular to say so on this site but it's facts.
If the PS5 was going to be more powerful than the Xbox Series X the devs & Sony themselves would be saying so. Sony just wants the narrative to be about the SSD & so they should as that's the only thing more powerful.
Sony will have some amazing games and so will Microsoft.
Atom666. Thanks for taking the time to put up that old N4G post, it's a brilliant read.
How wrong can some ppl get it..
So basically if your travelling really fast like in the flying part of the demo the Xbox Series X might have to lower the resolution a little compared to the PS5 because of the super fast Sony SSD.
But when your not moving so fast the Xbox Series Xs resolution would be higher than the PS5s because of the better Gpu.
Solved. I'm happy with that..
Pioneers Laser Active weighed probably double that of the PS3.
What was wrong with the Hellblade 2 trailer? That was perfect, no gameplay but it has me well interested
A mere 2tf... That's more than a whole PlayStation 4.
Yes Sonys SSD is world class it has the fastest hard drive by far.
Your completely missing the point...
This site is insane..
Recently Microsoft showed a load of games & mostly Sony fans complained & said it was a rubbish showing from Microsoft the games looked poor, not any better than this gen etc. Despite the games being nearly all 3rd party & those same games will be on PS5.
Now we have this Sony Epic demo of the Unreal engine which Sony fans think is absolutely astonishing even tho its 30fps & 1440 resolution & YES A BIG AND, will be the same engine M...
You don't know what all the exclusive games will be yet.. They have 15 new studios.
My mate is a die hard Sony fan & has never owned an Xbox ever.
He's getting the Xbox Series X next just because how amazing Gamepass is..
Really good numbers from Sony. Even tho they ain't as high as PS2 numbers yet Sony have made way way more money on the PS4 compared to the PS2 already...
The PS5 SSD is without doubt faster than the SSD in the Xbox Series X. Developers have said its great.
So are you saying that the PS5 is going to be more powerful than the Xbox Series X?
Thats all I have said is if Microsoft is going to be advertising the Xbox Series X as the most powerful console. Sony can advertise the PS5 as the fastest console because of the super fast SSD so that's a good marketing angle to counter Microsofts most powerful Console advertising.
