Also, didn't we already see what Sony has to offer with Demon's Souls and Spider-Man:MM? We also saw what MS has to offer with Halo:Infinite.
What does that have to do with the discussion?

To be honest Halo is not the perfect example . Of reflecting what the Series hardware can do, unless you are convinced Series is weak?Is VRS a valuable feature though?

Well, you said we'll have to wait and see what Sony has to offer.What does that have to do with the discussion?

Definitely not weak but we have to judge the platforms based on their flagship outputs, right?To be honest Halo is not the perfect example . Of reflecting what the Series hardware can do, unless you are convinced Series is weak?

Sure, but we're talking about architecture, not cherry picking first party games
Using games as an example is the correct thing to do. Specs on paper are meaningless without games taking advantage.
Sony could have done what Xbox did and just made it basically stock RDNA2 with less customization. Its not like Sony didn't have the same roadmap as Microsoft. Sony always customizes their home consoles. The PS4 Pro had features that were not available in AMD Graphics cards when it came out and even vanilla PS4 had customizations in the GPU for better general compute than what was available on the desktop market. This is not new territory for Sony.
to be honest it is starting to look like Sony finalised their setup before rdna2 was finalised, shipped their dev kits sooner, and end up with more games at launch but console that will not age well vs competitor, ms on the other hand worked with AMD to finalise the full rdna2 console, this also explains earlier comments from AMD saying that xbsex will be pinnacle of innovation. Sony is in better position at launch , their dev kit was in the wild longer, there is a bit more content (exclusives on ps5 at launch), ms on other hand seems to have everything in place to start to deliver games from late 2021. i don't think that halo infinite would make a lot of difference at launch.
based on this, it seems that ps5 is an extension of the previous gen (games kind of confirm this - remake of an old game and Spider-Man dlc are the biggest at launch) while xbseries is a proper new gen, but launched approx. 1 year too early and lacking content at launch because of this.

You don't know, on paper it has the IO edge, but how Series X stacks up with their Software / hardware approach is unknown, maybe after some tested games.Yeah that bolded comment doesn't make sense. The PS5 still has advantages over the Series X, specifically I/O. At the end of the day they both use the same CPU architecture and most of the same RDNA2 features. The PS5 is not going to age worse than the Series X. It just might not have quite as many native 4K games as Series X. Most people won't be able to tell the different between 1800p with good upscaling algorithms vs native 4K.
The PS5 is no more an extension of previous gen than the Series X is, please show me all these next gen exclusive Series X games.
That's how the human brain works ... confirming what you need to hear/believe.![]()
mindblown how you came to any of these conclusions.
Having games at launch is normal. If anything it makes it look like Xbox was planning to release in 2021 and was caught off guard by PlayStation.

What? When did you expect Microsoft to release the XSX then? Holiday 2021? The console that has been out in the wild for months wasn't supposed to have been ready in another year?
I'm going to be completely blunt - that's a shitty take.
I was just using their poor logic against them. I believe both were planned for 2020.
I can't wait for Crackdown 4 and Halo Craig Infinite.
And I can't wait for Forza Horizon 5, Forza Motosport, Avowed, Everwild, State of Decay 3, Grounded full-release, Star Field, Elder Scrolls 6, Hellbade 2 and whatever The Initiative, and Inxile are working on. Cheers.I can't wait for Crackdown 4 and Halo Craig Infinite.

Fair enough. I was honestly surprised that you were arguing that - which you weren't then. My mistake.

Listwars here we come!and new forza, forza horizon, reboot of fable, avowed, tes6, starfield, stalker 2, hellblade 2, project Mara, new doom, new wolfenstein and lots more that are still unannounced....all exclusive to Xbox
Shame there's no games to demo all this tech on at launch
He's right though lol.Your veil is slipping.
There is no need to be upset.
He's right though lol.
But can see you are here to antagonize others and not discuss the topic. No surprises there either.
So perhaps you're veil is slipping?

They did and it looked like shit. (Halo infinite)I guess the NDA also prevented Xbox first party teams from using said features.
Sweet galloping Jesus.
I've come across some turgid shit on this forum but this post takes the cake. Congrats.
Why on this forum are you allowed to say this which isn't true and you don't get banned but if you say the wrong TF (which obviously makes it not true) for PS5 you get banned.
What's good for the Goose.......
I guess the NDA also prevented Xbox first party teams from using said features.
There are lots of games. No standout first party yet but there are many quality games for both systems. I can't wait to play Gears Tactics for one. I love XCOM type games. I was really rooting for Phoenix Point but it seems it didn't turn out great.
So xbox fans after having nothing to shout about are now celebrating having a more off the shelf pc type part because rdna2 pc cards have to use Microsoft tech....?
Microsoft know exactly how to make their fans go berserk, must be the easiest lot to wind up and away they go celebrating stuff thats pretty meaningless.
"Xbox Series X|S are the only next-generation consoles with full hardware support for all the RDNA 2 capabilities AMD showcased today "
Of course Sony won't have all the things amd mentioned today which was the Microsoft wording. They said the feature set is malleable and they have own needs for PlayStation. They got what they needed and did their own customisations. Could be better... an example of what they did...
Look at the io breakthroughs they made that are best in class. Nothing comes close to ps5 io unit. Totally custom and exclusive.
But yeah maybe they should have gone for direct storage and Sampler feedback, an inferior solution instead, so they can brag about having everything amd mention with rdna2.
Sony must have direct x raytracing right, right? No? That's not full rdna 2 then....Of course they had their own version.
People never learn.
Does xbox have infinity cache, thats a key feature of rdna2?
It better or is Microsoft being normal PR with wording? Doesn't seem to have it.
You can see how much xbox fans needed this release. They started off as the most powerful console but can't show it, no games to show at launch that even match PS5. Now its all hope that these 'rdna 2 features' that Sony wouldn't have had anyway, magically make xbox better despite the hardware running the same or worse with whatever features both have already.
The pc parts have to use Microsoft stuff like direct storage, SFS etc so to then brag and say we use all the features a pc card does is a bit disingenuous and meaningless IMO. It would be weird and ridiculous if Sony did use that Microsoft tech.
I will say again, going to be some upset people come comparisons IMO, who can't understand why 12tf and the 'full rdna2 pc features' performs the same as ps5, like we are seeing already.
But it seems for most in here, a tick on a feature sheet, without knowing what the other did for the same problem, overrides actual real world results.

Just because a GPU supports all the features doesn't make it "off the shelf". There is nothing off the shelf about either console. Image how mad you would get if I pointed out PlayStation's use of "off the shelf" expanded storage. It wouldn't be entirely accurate would it?

I said more off the shelf.
But also the key is pc cards have to use Microsoft tech so of course they will be more like the pc part.
Sony won't ever have used SFS, direct storage etc so to brag and say we use RDNA2 fully like pc is just bragging for fanboys because Sony was never going to use Microsoft stuff and for everything they wanted the got it and then did their own implementations.
All very silly.
The storage solutions you're probably right. Nothing to see there vs. the SSD solutions on PlayStation. You're ignoring VRS and DirectML which can have very real benefits though. I'm not sure why you're leaving those out of the conversation.
I'm pretty sure machine learning was confirmed and I believe it can just be done on an rdna2 gpu.
Yes mentioned back in that old wired article.

Exclusive: A Deeper Look at the PlayStation 5
Now that the name is official, we've got more details about Sony's next-gen console—from the haptics-packed controller to UI improvements.www.wired.com
Vrs I believe was unofficially confirmed o know RGT mentioned it somewhere but Sony have their own methods for stuff too.
Again though with the PS5 doesn't have directML. That's a Microsoft tech, of course it doesn't have that exact version.
If Sony has PSML, haha xbox doesn't have PS machine learning, that would be a ridiculous argument no?
.1
Exactly what i was thinking yesterday, i can not understand how xbox fans think this is a win and are celebrating like there is no tomorrow.
Over what exactly
All that has happened is, they are now closer to a pc in terms or parts and architecture and Sony has changed those parts and customized it with their very own versions.
The fact remains, those games from ubisoft show parity in settings and modes at 120fps, 4ketc, ps5 with 10 Tflops is matching a 12 tflop machine, why are Xbox people celebrating this fact.?
Btw if anyone has not seen it yet there is a Nice Shinney demon souls gameplay video out a few minutes ago, its pretty spectacular.

Looks amazing yeah, but not any better than Gears 5 next gen IMO.
Shame Sony had to go down the route of €80 graphically enhanced old games rather than free![]()
