PlayStation 5 [OT] Taking Over The World One SSD At A Time

I knew about it before but didn't think it was performing very closely, just look how ridiculous the comparison is:





Could be implemented on consoles as this is RDNA1, who knows. I hope they optimize them well with no funny results if implemented.


This just reminds me how much I wish the new consoles had DLSS
 
Ok thought that many people are bitching about noisy PS4, here's my PS4 Pro than hasn't been cleaned internally, ever, nor the first base model since 2013 are both are pretty silent.

Lucky! I own a cat in a dusty apartment and mine sounds like a 747.

Doesn't have anything to do with dust/pethairs or enviromental temprature.

Some PS4 and Pro Revisions had severe issues with thermalpaste and or thermal pads.

I've opened mine and cleaned everything it was still super loud. Now that I replaced the thermalpaste and thermalpads it finally runs with a reasonable amount pf noise.

Totally off topic but on your YouTube channel, in your other beatuna(?) videos, what is that turban called that you are wearing?
 


♫ Baby, yeah we can go up
Feelin' just don't stop it now
Niggas tryna hate on us (mmm) ♫

I hope this becomes the norm, many of Sonys WWS gave an option for performance/graphics mode on Pro but the hardware was simply too weak to deliver a compelling experience. There's enough under the hood on PS5 to give a 60fps option be it Dynamic 4K with few bells and whistles removed, or 1440p with everything intact, or something in between as a compromise between the two.

The performance mode is dynamic 4k/ 60fps? Wonder if RT is on.
I'm assuming 4K enhanced visuals OR 60 FPS performance. Poorly worded tweet. Remember, this is possibly the old game engine designed for previous hardware with visual enhancements. Cross-Gen game issues. Won't be the last is my guess.

The tweet clearly states just one mode, what is weird is that we though 4K and 60FPS would be the main target...
 
The footage was native 4K so it's possible the performance mode is checkerboard or something similar along with less detailed effects.

I'd imagine so. I believe this is probably going to be a game by game basis. Likely to be similar for cross-gen, 3rd party, or games designed for previous gen running on the new system. Could also be the case for games designed for PS5. Who knows.
 
Not surprised. Spider-Man was awesome and people want more. It's all i needed to see to make me want a PS5 day one. Hopefully I can afford it lol

Yes, Spider Man was a pleasant surprise to me. I liked it a LOT more than I thought I would and the new Miles Morales Spider Man looks AMAZING. I don't care if it's the same basic game with graphical sparkle upgrades and just new story...it will be great. Definitely something I'll be getting on PS5 DAY ONE.

My launch PS4 and launch PS4 Pro are the same. Still silent, never been cleaned.

The PS4 fat and Pro are inconsistent in their noise levels, some loud, others not so much. It's been like that since the first models, and that is just unacceptable in terms of respecting the consumer.
 
Out of topic, did you guys see that Shadow worrior 3 gameplay. Totally next gen. I believe some 3rd party developers will not do cross gen.

Very much on-topic, and I would have never checked it out otherwise with that generic title. Thanks for that.

It looks amazing. As the new owner of a 4K screen, I'm basically always looking for games to feed it enough detail to truly wow me, and current gen doesn't always deliver in that aspect.

Stuff like this, everything just looks so... polished, and perfect, no matter where you look on-screen, or what crazy effect is playing. Some will disagree, waiting for more ambitious takes like Horizon 2, but to me, this is absolutely next-gen, just for the general fidelity level. I'm really looking forward to this Fall.

That's a Shemagh with tales, we call it here "Masar Bo Thabeel - مصر بوذبيل" meaning taily Masar. Everyone kinda has his own taste with it, here is another way of it:




It's not the formal one, here' the formal "Masar":

Of course it's a fake of Messi :lollipop_tears_of_joy:

Sorry for going off topic. Gonna resume my Ghost of Tsushima journey!
 
God of War map screen is the real stress test.

Even with that it's quite silent. I think like 99% of PS4 in my country are coming from one of the lucky factories, heard that there are like 20 of them and I've only seen one noisy PS4 in person and it was actually from gray market that is actually US first batch.

Hey bo, I watched one of your videos of you looking into a big sink hole, you are harder to understand than us Geordies. Need to get you a geordie flatcap (and some ferrets) :messenger_beaming:

One day I'll throw some xbox fans into one of those. We got 3rd largest sinkhole (Taiq Sinkhole) here among 4 of them, it's 90 million cubic meters, so it can fit all the noisy xbox fanboys inside. :lollipop_tears_of_joy:

Or you could tie them up and play this, it is almost too cruel :messenger_beaming:

I just realized that the team behind this game are veterans from evolution studios, the same team behind Driveclub.

Lighting, particles, effects, and WILL BE AMAZING.

The studio was originally formed from the remains of Bizarre Creations - Project Gotham Racing series and Blur - but has also incorporated some talent from Studio Liverpool (Wipeout). They may have some Evolution Studios members too, but I think most of them moved on to be part of Codemasters.

I think Wushu Studios is helping out with this too?
 


Nearly 29 million views now.

Sony stock closed at 77.27 dollars. That is a 97.36 Billion market cap, highest in almost 20 years.

After hours trading now hit 78.39 dollars or 98.77 Billion market cap.

31 Billion cash on hand or equivalents.

They can have FidelityFX if they need to, I think Sony has its own solution, they're smart enough and did great so far this gen with checkerboard hardware.

This video is a great example on how checkerboard rendering is hightly underrated

Yup, PS4 Pro is already embarrassing the 2080Ti and the only win you can get above it is slightly cleaner image and higher framerates. Imagine what Sony has under its sleeves with PS5. There are many things still to be unfolded probably by 2021 GDC.
 
Sony's EPIC Deal, Unreal Engine 5 Demo only used 768MB of RAM, timestamped:





It's quite funny how that massive demo is only using 0.768GB out of 16GB of RAM on PS5. Something no other plarform can even dream of. Now time to go back to slice some people in Ghost of Tsushima! Love that you get some "dismembering" later in the game.

I would hope that most PS5 games, and maybe even Series X, give players the option of performance and image quality modes. There's no reason why both consoles can't use checkerboarding, if not a more advanced version of it. If future PS5 games need some form of checkerboarding to keep the same image quality as Series X; than I don't see what the big deal is if, at the end of the day, the image is the same at "4K" while allowing more GPU grunt to focus on other things. We'll see I guess, but I would love for developers to show the difference in options menu when choosing performance mode versus maximum image quality. They already do this on PC (Resident Evil 2 remake is a good example), should have on console as well.

That is not what Epic said. They used that size for their streaming buffer IIRC.

Like come on dude lol
