Developers Begin to Weigh in on the Power Gap Between the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5. Series X taking the power crown "from all accounts".

Behold!

I can't believe someone managed to catch a Japanese person and a piece of Xbox hardware in the same picture. Must be either staged or shopped.

Nope. Getting both consoles. Gonna have to reach a little harder with the trolling.
Trolling? The PS5 SSD is dominating your mind.


We really don't need another thread. Its only going to spawn 50 more ssd threads by these armchair developers.
Thanks for contributing..... absolutely nothing. Go cry in the ssd thread if you have nothing to add.


Tell the truth. On a scale from 2.4 to 5.5 how butthurt are you?

My reason for posting objective, mainstream news should be irrelevant. You're putting the messenger on trial because you don't like the message.

I'm sure you're were downplaying the PS5 capabilities for some time now.


Yeah, we believe you were just posting the message with no agenda. lol.
 
So, one old source who may not even be a game developer anymore. One unnamed source which could be a MS first party and one source that is only making an Xbox game which also happens to be his first game.

Stellar 'Seasoned Developers' right there.

I’m sure Jason Schreier’s “PS5 is more powerful than we know sources” are totally legit, neutral, and genuine as well.

What's objective about any of this? It's a bunch of quotes, some of which are from people who haven't even worked on games for either console. It's about as subjective as it gets, and that won't change until both consoles are out and there are direct comparisons.
It's not subjective that RT performance is tied to CU cores or that an SSD cannot make up for deficits in GPU and CPU power. I know amrchair developers would love that to be subjective but career developers disagree.

Oh this is a throwaway account lol. No wonder
Im not an xbox fanboy so I dont make alt-accounts. I already told you that, Mr. Vacuum Brain.
So next time when you get told once again dont give me this trash again.

Now fuck off, Im done playing with you.
 
I need a thread where Switch Pro will theoretically be the most powerful system because it has the clickiest joysticks or something.

Switch Pro will get a 5000x compute boost from solar panels and wind generators attached to the joycons that turn on when you walk around outside. Power of nature beats petty CU and CPU nonsense

And one fanboy who discredits any source that doesn't sing the praises of his favourite toy.

I don't much care. I'll be getting both Sony's and MS's games. One thing that is apparent though is that idiots from both sides are just cut and pasting any bit of pointless click bait out there.

You, yes you, are one of those idiots. Read through your own article before rushing to post it.

Never said they were.

Report me if I continue to console war
We literally already had this thread before and it was already seen the guy has an obvious grudge against Sony and works for MS now. @Mod of War can we do something about these threads rehashing info we already discussed before?

For the sake of consistentsy several of the ps5 hardware threads would also need to be close, because there are many ps5 hardware thread, based on random youtubers whos knowledge is questionable.

I think we should one XsX hardware thread and one PS5 hardware thread to many threads on the same subject makes the topic less meaning and makes the front page of the gaming forum messy and unorganized. It cheapens the forum.

Personal attacks really necessary? Are you really that triggered over an article cuz it favors the xsx over the ps5? I didn't see you throw a tantrum in the ssd threads?

Read the first sentence of my prior post. I don't care at all about specs as long as I get the games. You haven't seen me in any prior spec threads or about the SSD because I've already stated I expect the XSX to be more powerful.

The article was just stupid.

Thats fine if you think its stupid. Not everyone will agree obviously. But was the personal attacks necessary? There's enough toxic fanboy garbage on here as is

I'm a Xbox fan but it obviously seems like the ps5 is going to sell more because it's a stronger gaming brand with the public.

Isn't obviously that most devs are going to be extra careful and friendly on how they speak about the ps5 being underpowered compared to XSX? I mean they don't want to upset Sony as the top dog and they certainly don't want to hurt their relationship with Sony as that would be bitting the hand that feeds you. They are going to be careful and PC about it. MS too to some degree but not to the level of Sony as they're on top. The PS5 is obviously underpowered. The fanboys that are saying no one can understand how the ps5 is superior because it's so ingenious (obviously not, it's weaker), are the same ones that decried the GitHub leak(just look at their post history) and were claiming either a 13.+ TF GPU or HIGHER TF DUAL GPU based on ZERO evidence for crying out loud instead of the "boost" clock 10.2 GPU that only hits that in best case scenario(it will crater to sub 9 TFs under stress) depending on GPU workloads.

The ps5 will still sell more despite all this shenanigans, and Sony knows it too, which is why they don't care about having weaker hardware either.

People buying the XSX don't care about which is more popular, just which hardware is better.
