who said that CBOAT leaks only positive things ? CBOAT is known mainly because he leaked every shitty MS policy they had in store for gamers, when people went to E3 they were already sharpening knives and MS delivered coup de grace confirming everything people heard was right.

Make no mistake. CBOAT is partially responsible for ruining MS dominance coming from X360 era. If it was announced without leak it would be exactly like PS4 announced paid online, people would be too focused on something else and MS would have plenty of time to dillute message to make it look like nothing is wrong and they would have plenty of fanboys behind them same way few moths after that announcement there were still people believing how good digital only console would be and how used games in MS way would be better for everyone.

Yeap it was not MS themselves lol

I love how various forum members once painted EviLore as some kind of Sony agent because he met Adam Boyes years before he joined PlayStation.

While this moderator pictured above (Judge) is a documented Microsoft shill who is regularly photographed beside senior Xbox staff including Phil Spencer and receives yearly invites to Xbox campus for "bonding sessions". Together with 4 other Era moderators who are Xbox Ambassadors ("promoting the brand you love") who all ban PlayStation forum members at the drop of a hat.

Now it makes sense. Wondered why all the xbox drive-bys went unnoticed while ps people were handed out warnings left and right.

Never forget just what a massive disaster the Xbox One was in its early days. It was basically hard to find any positivity of note. I mean this guy was the head.



They've come a long way since then and won me back over (I'm super excited about the Series X). But the thing started out as a major disaster led by disastrous leadership.

I'm Sony through and through but you're right. Xbox seem like they've got their shit together and if the right exclusives come along I may have to dip my toe in the water.

Also, we're approaching the pointy end of all this and the excitement is building. I love this time, where we're all a little unsure of whats to come.

As a Sony guy, I can't get a read on them at the moment. Is their relative silence a sign of confidence or worry?

It's definitely a fun time. I'm way more excited about this upcoming gen than I was the current gen. If Microsoft and Sony both have their shit together and are putting out monster consoles, it's a huge win for me as a gamer.

I've been thinking about hiphopgamer's Remastering Engine 'leak', and this could be actually true.

We have Bluepoint teasing us with MULTIPLE old games, not just a Souls game. Which could be that Bluepoint is somehow involved with this remastering engine in some way, or they will somehow use it to create multiple PS5 patches for those old games to have better textures or something. So the Demon's Souls will end up being true, just that it's not going to be a PS5 AAA remake, but rather a solid remaster with better textures, like Resident Evil 6 for the PS4.

We also had Ed Boon, creator of Mortal Kombat, telling us that there's a BIG surprise coming in 2020 for MK fans. What if this surprise is all past MK games becoming available with this remastering engine on PSN for purchase, allowing the MK fans to experience all previous MK games on a single console, upscaled to 4k?

The more I think about it, the more I think it's true. So hoping it's true!

Hey I think the HipHip gamer leak should have its own thread. He aslo talks about custom res, AA etc.

wtf.... no LOL. What kind of silly crap is this when most don't know who the hell he is (they are)? It was horrible, unsure messaging from Microsoft, kinect and numerous articles dropping at the same time stating that the NSA would be using kinect to spy on you (this shit did damage) Multiple major gaming sites ran with it, being $100 more expensive while also being weaker than PS4. An MS employee getting into public arguments on twitter with trolls, and then saying "and why would I live there" in reference to some guy saying where he lived. And that video by francis who many believed to be his real personality, not knowing he was playing some character also did damage from a pr standpoint, the one where he smashed the xbox 360.



And then Sony dropping the boom at E3 with that how to share games video and saying exactly what needed to be said to make xbox look that much more terrible during their E3 presser. Those were prepared, totally choreographed shots at Microsoft. A middle school kid could have come in there and burned Microsoft down on that day, and Sony took advantage. Cboat had all of jack shit to do with what took place. It was a known rumor way before he ever said a word about it. He just came and poured gasoline on a fire on a forum full of people that wanted to see Microsoft fall back from 360 success.

Did cboat also make don mattrick say in regards to military personnel being able to play xbox one we have an xbox for them, it's called xbox 360? I always laugh at people giving far more credit to the equivalent of a forum burner account to the overall strategic missteps of a multi-billion dollar corporation. It was a collection of problems with heavy emphasis on spying and the NSA in relation to kinect, Sony's E3 presser (you gonna tell me sony got their info from cboat too?), power and price, and COD resolution differences out the gate. Cboat was literally a fart in the wind.

[VFXVeteran]

There is an easy solution for this. Give the player options. 1440p or some lower resolution with ray tracing active, full 4k or slightly lower resolution with none. This way games that want to do ray tracing can both provide it as an option for people who want to experience that while also ensuring people who don't care and want to game at highest possible resolution can do so.

Yep.. and they might actually do that. I think it will be like what you describe with most games. Let's at least hope so.

 

[EviLore]

I hope CBOAT drops a bomb. I want to see the REE mods struggle to control that discussion.

Sound advice.

 

[SenjutsuSage]

But how about other Xbone's rumors. You won't point the correct ones?

He didn't drop nearly as much major information as you all seem to think lol. We already had the specs with the exception of 8GB GDDR5 through SuperDAE (remember that??) hacked documents lol. There was also inaccurate information about the amount of ram allocated to games on release for PS4, specifically to counter more accurate info that came from DF. You guys have a rosy memory of what he really did. He just fed everyone anti-xbox sentiment and regurtitated public info we were already getting on microsoft's drm plans well before he said a thing. Dead Rising 3 info wasn't that big a reveal either. You could have saw that coming based on capcom remarks about their engine and what studios were working closely with microsoft based on public statements.

So yea.. not giving him too much credit lol. He didn't give us the specs, someone else did. All else was in the public sphere, and getting something as major wrong regarding the GPU on xbox one being downclocked prior to release is no small thing, even getting wrong information about bad yields of Xbox One at a time when there was no such issue that warranted concern? You guys are seeing what you want to is how i see it.

Makes more sense than the 40 CU (4 disabled) theory for back compat.
PS4 18CU/ 20 is total
PS4 pro 36CU/ 40 total
PS5 56CU/ 60 total
The same increase of CUs like ps4 to pro, but compensated with the gains of RDNA and higher clock speeds.

The techpowerup charts are just placeholder until official specs come through. They will be updated. On PS5 it just lists PC dGPU Navi 10 specs and die size for example.

The Dealer video "confirming" the info as accurate is a little embarrassing but it isn't surprising.

Not based on Github. 320bit bus is found in Github, here its 384bit bus.

16 - 4 for OS maybe = 12
GPU follows Zen structure since Navi, multi projects simultaneously (I believe it was Lisa Su at some AMD show that said it).
56GB/s (GDDR6 is 64GB/s max, that's slightly lower than the 27.1GB/s MS got in the One X (28GB/s max for GDDR5).

Elaborate on the "bus bit is wrong", 12 x 32 = 384 bit, who knows how they configured the other 4GB.

Massive no. Just way, way, way too costly. Would easily be a BOM of $250-$320 for it alone (never mind the interposer...and yes this includes Sony buying in bulk).

Time to give up the ghost on HBM2E; not economically feasible (especially since SK Hynix and Samsung are selling them at high prices since other purchasers are willing to pay the premium).

BS.

384 bit bus wrong.
RDNA2 unlikely.
The ram amounts make no sense.

They're basing the RAM amount on what the GPU portion will use, so at least on that note the XSX figure seems accurate. The PS5 one does not, though; at the very least both systems will have 16GB of RAM and no way PS5 needs 8GB reserved for the OS.

Other details are less crazy; RDNA2 is a stretch though. At most both will be RDNA1 with some RDNA2 features pulled from the roadmap, particularly for ray-tracing.

The 384 bit bus is flat out wrong. We've seen 320bit bus in the e3 teaser + it's in the Github leak.

Yeah the 384-bit bus part is inaccurate. Before those leaks though some were probably assuming it'd be 384-bit since that's what the XBX had (but they likely hadn't seen the E3 video in a long time to refresh their memory).

 

[Shin]

Yeah the 384-bit bus part is inaccurate.

Who knows really, someone mentioned something interesting the other day about the images in said vid being intentionally wrong and not the real XS layout.
With the mind games going on between Sony/MS in regards to spec it's hard to dismiss things.
The craziness will prolly still be there even after both companies have showed their full hands, but no one can say for 110% what's what ATM it seems.

 

[PropellerEar]

As a Sony guy, I can't get a read on them at the moment. Is their relative silence a sign of confidence or worry?

I could be wrong, but I think it's confidence. They have big hitters coming for current gen, while Xbox has nothing until XseX.

I think Sony is very well aware of Xbox plans, and only surprise was the timing of XseX reveal at game awards. Before XseX reveal it looked like Sony is in total control of Next gen messaging. Seeing how a simple wired Cerny interview just before E3 revealed everything for PS5 what MSFT "monsters for breakfast" wanted to showcase for Scarlett.

Now it seems like XSex reveal only created a short interest boost for XseX while there is now a crazy thirst for any PS5 info, so staying silent doesn't seem bad either.

 

[SenjutsuSage]

The 384 bit bus is flat out wrong. We've seen 320bit bus in the e3 teaser + it's in the Github leak.

I don't know, I'd wait and see before assuming it is. I completely believe Microsoft didn't showcase all in that video and may have been intentionally misleading on some things.

I have no doubt in my mind Cerny and company are very confident and timing all their reveals out masterfully like thy did last Gen during their reveal. I'm also sure thy have some great features ppl don't know about thts going to blow minds. It bodes well thy are tightly lipped, they lose nothing from that. Small timed drops until the big megabomb reveal causes so much excitement and anxiety lol take these threads for example. Everyone is manic lol for the rest of the info. They are playing great chess again.

Now it seems like XSex reveal only created a short interest boost for XseX while there is now a crazy thirst for any PS5 info, so staying silent doesn't seem bad either.

This may be true for your own anecdotal POV and your circle of friends, but that isn't the case at large. Someone posted a Google Trends tracking graphic/page for Sony/MS and PS5/XSX (it was a couple days ago; can't remember the poster name but their avatar was a white dude with a kinda chubby face, deadpan (slightly smug) look and a thick mustache). MS and XSX were trending much higher globally, even in places where I didn't think people cared about those brands.

The country breakdown (for just select places) it appeared much more even and 50/50, such as Norway. But still, some of these places are usually thought of as Sony land so seeing MS and XSX get that much traction there seems to show they're getting more mindshare globally. Now the question remains if they can maintain that momentum and translate it into market share via actual sales. And that's something we won't get a better gauge of until after E3, at earliest.

EDIT: Okay so I went and did my own search and it seems PS5 is trending higher globally atm. But it still looks relatively close and both seem to have similar patterns of rises and falls . Obviously a lot of PS5's talk is around CES and the latest spec leaks.

XSX had a huge spike in attention at TGAs and that's probaby helped it maintain relatively well with PS5 in global discussions since then. Also a lot of talk about both systems isn't actually immediately on the systems themselves, but things in relation to them, such as GTA6, FIFA 2020 etc.

If there was any doubt this list was fake as fuck … the last one pretty much seals it. Most of the list is pretty safe predictions (yes, even the dino crisis one), so it not crazy enough to wow people.

I mean, there are people who are screaming for Mileena, Reptile, Ermac, Havik, Rain, Smoke, Hotaru and Ed Boon scrapping a DLC slot to give them himself as a character, it will drive the fans insane from the hate! They will be so angry they will ...

.... constantly want …

... to perform fatalities on him.

Oh shit.

It's true.

Some of that stuff sounds legit but stuff like the Mega Man X9 stuff makes me go ehhhhh. Still an interesting read regardless.

I dont beleive that pastebin. I dont believe MS is going to purchase a japanese developer because i dont believe even a struggling company wants to be tied to that dead horse. I also think ps5 will be 399, not 499. How could one person possibly know that much about the inner workings that many companies? Doesnt add up to me.

only 12gb of ram for xsx?

This may be true for your own anecdotal POV and your circle of friends, but that isn't the case at large. Someone posted a Google Trends tracking graphic/page for Sony/MS and PS5/XSX (it was a couple days ago; can't remember the poster name but their avatar was a white dude with a kinda chubby face, deadpan (slightly smug) look and a thick mustache). MS and XSX were trending much higher globally, even in places where I didn't think people cared about those brands.

The country breakdown (for just select places) it appeared much more even and 50/50, such as Norway. But still, some of these places are usually thought of as Sony land so seeing MS and XSX get that much traction there seems to show they're getting more mindshare globally. Now the question remains if they can maintain that momentum and translate it into market share via actual sales. And that's something we won't get a better gauge of until after E3, at earliest.

EDIT: Okay so I went and did my own search and it seems PS5 is trending higher globally atm. But it still looks relatively close and both seem to have similar patterns of rises and falls . Obviously a lot of PS5's talk is around CES and the latest spec leaks.

XSX had a huge spike in attention at TGAs and that's probaby helped it maintain relatively well with PS5 in global discussions since then. Also a lot of talk about both systems isn't actually immediately on the systems themselves, but things in relation to them, such as GTA6, FIFA 2020 etc.

such as norway? can you show me sources? because, it is more like 95% to 5%.

Dealer knows nothing. These dudes should stay out of this thread since it's just fanboy nonsense.

Actually Phil Spencer went on to record multiple times saying that they want a first party Japanese studio.

Random Bits of Info I’ve heard:

I've actually heard all of this myself, from several insiders and my own sources (whom I won't name). Turns out that most of it is true, with just a few notable exceptions:

- Halo 1, 2, 3, Reach, and Rare Replay all coming to Switch
- Windows 10 will work on Series X, but only to browse the web

The Halo games are coming to Switch, but will only work in docked mode and won't therefore run on the Switch Lite. Also, Windows 10 on Series X will not only allow you to browse the web, but will also run AVG and McAfee antivirus.

- Spider-Man 2 is a PS5 exclusive and will be announced at E3 2019
- PS5 is $499, no region locking, and is backwards compatible with every PlayStation disc ever
- Last of Us 2 will get an upgraded port for PS5 on launch
- Horizon Zero Dawn 2 is a launch title for PS5

Spider-Man 2 will also run on the PS4, but at 24fps (for an enhanced cinematic feel). The PS5 will be $399 and won't in fact run every PlayStation disc ever. The disc will be ripped as an ISO onto the HDD and will be required as verification when the title is launched (the disc itself won't actually run the game). The Last of Us, Part 2 won't be upgraded on PS5 at launch and will run in PS4 Pro mode. Horizon Zero 2 is not a launch title - it will launch on PC first and come to PS5 sometime in late 2021 (although it might slip to 2022, according to one of my contacts).

- 3D Platformer staring the Dinosaur from the offline dinosaur game
- New color scheme for the controller is coming: Silver and Gold

The dinosaur game is a 2.5D title, like New Super Mario Bros. The new controller is white and blue (to be marketed as Ice White).

I remember he said multiple times that Gears 5 will be native 4k60 on X

He has pretty solid sources and didn't he leak the info regarding Xbox Series X before others and before the Game Awards? I see a lot of random youtube videos posted here with random sources to reinforce ones preferred line of thinking. So how exactly does a guy who tends to regularly have Mike Ybarra formerly of xbox as one of his regular listeners and someone who participates at times on his podcast, and who has been right on so many things so far, not deserve to be posted here? I'm just confused. Help me out.

No lol. Before Dealer it was Tom Warren who mentioned those details, before Warren a French website came out with specific details on their website 8 months earlier (specifics that even Dealer and Warrant didn't mention), and before the French website those specs were leaked on Reddit. Windows Central was the last one to confirm those specs that leaked on Reddit in January last year. Dealer gets Microsoft's love because he's their hype machine, that's why Ybarra was on his podcast.

What a ridiculous statement. I mean how can it release on PC before PS5 when we all know it's coming to Xbox and Switch first.
