After one year of Xbox Series X and PS5, here is a summary of the results of all Digital Foundry comparison videos of new-gen games
- Thread starter Lunatic_Gamer
- Start date

Tales of Arise is only a light green shaded "slightly better"?

DF: Tales of Arise PS5 vs Series X/S Tech Breakdown.
- Two modes, a 1620p mode which targets 60 fps on PS5 and Series X and a 4K mode with better shadows with unlocked frame rate. Both are a visual match. On Series S is 1080 at 60 fps or 1440p at unlocked fps. - Performance: on PS5 performance is almost a locked 60 fps. 4K mode hovers around 40s...
Represent.
Represent(ative) of bad opinions
I miss arguing about TFLOPS, fuck games

Who knows what this guy's definition of same, slightly better or solid colour better even mean and what spec thresholds fit the narrative.
For example, lets same Game X consistently has a slightly better resolution all game on Console A.
Another game (Game Y) runs at the same resolution on Console A and B, but only during some tiny sections of the game is where Console B's res cuts in half.
Console A is better in both cases. But which situation is "slightly" or outright "better"? Or are both slightly or solid colour better?

The thing is if you load the same game up on both systems where one is technically doing better than the other res or FPS you simply won't notice and perceivable difference.

Lol @ Hitman 3 having slightly better performance, its literally one area.

Shhhhhh. We ignore that. One is always an amazing masterpiece and the other is an unplayable mess.
We just won't know which is which until DF tells us.

Avengers should be in the Xbox column and Control should be in the neutral column. Also not sure about Dirt 5. Everything else seems fine.
I just remembered that Little Nightmares was patched, so it should be neutral. Also didn't Tony Hawk perform better on Xbox? Another neutral.

For the X yes... for the S on the other hand, the state of the games released seem to be getting worse as time passes.

It seems the devs arent aiming what the console is capable of. I expect that to continue for 1-2 year.

This shit is poison and people are gonna drink it up. Both consoles are great. Honestly, neither is better, they offer most of the same features at very similar levels of performance. It's a matter of preference and there is nothing wrong going with either of them. Anyone who disagrees with this statement needs to face reality.

Yesh current gen only games can target new gpu architectures, direct storage, modern cpus, velocity architecture the seriesS has

It's not about how video games actually perform. It's about how Digital Foundry rated their performance at launch. That's why it's pretty much useless.

If that is the case, then these tests are pretty much worthless. Wasted my time looking at it.
testing Launch games is useless. Because its buggy, and most of stuff of patches takes time.

The threads are just for fun, best thing is own both consoles and play best of both worlds in terms of exclusive games..
Third party wise get the one that's the least dog water.

Differences have been irrelevant.
If you don't read about them you won't be able to tell by yourself in almost all cases.
The latest round of games (Vanguard, Battlefield 2042, Elden Ring Beta, Skyrim Definitive Edition) have all been slightly better on PS5.
A year has passed, these systems are as close as you can get.
I expect developers to make significant progresses on both PS5 and XSX once the cross gen phase is over and UE5 and other next gen engines are going to be widely adopted.
Series S will basically be the new Xbox One S, a cheap but already outdated option with seriously gimped versions.

Enough said lol. Been seeing this very inaccurate list circulate all over twitter. It was a matter of time before it made it here. Or maybe it was created here.

Little Nightmares still missing RT effects on Xbox. The Developers have said this is how it was intended, so don't expect further patches. As for the rest of the list, it's pretty much a wash, some games perform better on Xbox, some on PS, it's becoming increasingly down to personal preference as to which is better. Does it matter?

What determines the performance….games that run in a lower res on ps5 because there are some big differences?

Nifty chart ya got there. 2 Dark Green, 3 Dark Blue, All Black. The console I can't find wins this.
Will have to wait for comparisons that don't have old Gen versions. Nov 2024?

Framerate determines performance, some prefer frames, some prefer resolution, pick ya poison.

The only difference the consoles have will show in its first party games and even then that boils down to studio talent.
God of War and TLOU2 still run on crappy vanilla ps4 hardware from 2013

Gow and TLOU2 run great on PS4.
PS4 is well designed.

The differences were always going to be somewhat negligible on cross platform titles. Bring on the first party exclusives so people can argue about apples and oranges to make themselves feel better about their respective purchases!

PS5 slight edge.
Got me out here counting blue and green rectangles.

I mean the two are close so it isn't a repeat of the PS4 Vs One X days.
