PS5 reveal tomorrow

I want ReRAM to happen because it is a potential game-changer. Imiss your exotic over-the-top predictions btw.

LOL I still make them


 
where is everyone getting the 9.2 from?

I expect a PSP 2 ReVITAlized review tomorrow:
Switch clone Ryzen mobile-powered with 3-4Teraflops docked, L2+R2, decent WiFi and 1080p screen for remoteplay.
 
I own a switch, ps4pro, and an x1x. Last gen, I was convinced I would get a PS4 first because of all the bad news about the Xbox one. I ended up getting an Xbox first just because ps4s kept being out of stock.
the one thing I'm really thinking about is the design of the ps5 because I'm not really excited at how the series x looks.
Tomorrow may decide which console I purchase first.
 
Well Microsoft has 12 Terra flops, that stands for the amount of their new Exclusives that are going to flop.

that's why Microsoft was at #7 and Sony not even in the top TWENTY for the last years top 20 publishers according to metacritic:


Right?

Dude, I was just joking, you took the bait! I own a One X.. I seriously do not think this so just chill lol.
 
It will be a relief just to GET some more info about the PS5. All the speculation is fun, but until Sony says something official, that's all it is, speculation. Hopefully, Sony will finally put an end to (most of) the speculation soon.

Then, the next stage of bickering starts.......

They are not going to show the design.
 
Place your bets -

Cpu goes to PS5, Xbox or tie
GPU goes to PS5, Xbox or tie
Ram capacity PS5, Xbox or tie
Ram performance PS5, Xbox or tie
Ssd capacity PS5, Xbox or tie
Ssd Performance PS5, Xbox or tie
Secret sauce PS5, Xbox or tie

Cpu goes to PS5, Xbox or tie: Xbox
GPU goes to PS5, Xbox or tie: Xbox
Ram capacity PS5, Xbox or tie: Tie
Ram performance PS5, Xbox or tie: Tie
Ssd capacity PS5, Xbox or tie: Tie
Ssd Performance PS5, Xbox or Tie
Secret sauce PS5, Xbox or tie: If you mean quality first party games, then PS5.
 
Here's my take here...

PS5 will be slightly less powerful then XsX with the exception of dedicated Ram to the OS, with Sony taking the charge with innovation. Sony has always had more balls (so to speak) when it comes to changing up the game a bit. With more innovation comes more tech in the controller, ect, and this has to account for costs elsewhere which is why I have no doubt XsX will have the sleight edge here power (look at last gen when Xbox tried to add to much innovation, drove up cost) . Unlike last gen, both companies are going the same route, with Sony coming with a bit more flare.

We will see 8 hours from now, looking forward to it.

Just show me some games. It's not rocket science.


A traditional disk streaming data into fast NVMe would be trans-formative. You don't need to load the entire game into it, only the assets needed at that time or assets needed in the near future. The NVMe (assuming it's fast enough) then has the headroom to feed RAM at ridiculous speed while more data is streaming into the NVMe drive from the traditional / spindle disk. Whether this is pie-in-the-sky stuff I don't know. Maybe the speed of the transfer would not be enough but if you take a 15K speed disk which is around 300MB a second, it seems like it could be doable if we assume no loading and it's constantly streaming.

edit: Please add Clapton to the HYPE train!

But in your scenario all operations go through the mechanical at which point you are being throttled by the hdd. We have experience with similar setups: Apple has been shipping for awhile now on it's imac line a dual small ssd + large mechanical ssd setup and people are well aware that it is nowhere like a real ssd.
 
Hopefully they reveal all the specs so we can have that god awful speculation thread locked. (Or moved to community.)

Finally. Thanks Sony



what makes you think that nextgen is going to be the same?

Because Microsoft showed that they're not repeating the same mistakes? They already revealed the system and it's great. Closer competition this gen for sure.

We'll see in 9 hours and hopefully Sony surprise us all in a good way.
 
These couple days are certainly exciting times for gamers. We've got the release of this tomorrow, as well as the day after this Doom: Eternal, AC, the RE 3 demo, and possibly Panzer Dragoon: Remake. Cool stuff!!
 
I just don't know if my imagination is strong enough :messenger_tears_of_joy:

Especially in the case of No Man's Sky. I don't think I've seen a more blurry VR game than that.
I thought Skyrim was way worse. Lol
But tbf, I was focused on Dreams, so didn't really play NMS VR yet.

Still, even blurry it's awesome, so having cleaner visuals would make me a happy man.
