Is there any proof to suggest that the Spider-man demonstration was crafted for PS5's SSD speed?I wouldn't take that at face value. The Spider-man demo was crafted for PS5 in order to demonstrate the SSD while BC titles just run on the next-gen consoles as is. If you think BloodBorn will load on PS5 (without a PS5 patch), you will be disappointed
Another user was saying that is impossible for a game based on an HDD to go THAT fast with an SSD without touching the code.
I suppose that if really means what it seems, no matter how heavy the game is, you can load it in one or two sec, because the SSD can go faster than how much faster GPU, RAM and CPU got compared to old gen, so the games can't get too big for the SSD to handle them easily.Yes, that's what I meant but you added clarity to the point for who doesn't pay enough attention to the discussion. If Sony could really reach this, that would be really shocking:
Sony is the Apple of vidya: price doesn't matter.
It all depends on the country/region.
Maybe xbox will have some games next gen ?
Make senseSony is gonna lose on a big marketing opportunity if they don't reveal ps5 on 5/5.
5/5 PS5
It's not like 52 CUs at 1.825 GHz and CPU at 3.8 wont produce a lot of heat, the internal components are super packed.
From 9.2, right?
Of course it's a great deal for those who can't buy games, but one has to think beyond his own pocket and realize there's no free lunch: blockbuster games costs millions, do you think 10 dollar subscriptions (even 1 dollar many times) will make them break even? Either you subside them like MS did to Gears 5 and recent third party releases and make shareholders really unhappy, or you stop making them at all and shift production to filler material.
It's $10 a month, (ignoring subsidized deals) - so $120 a year - which is more than most people would have spent on the games on the service (most are sub $10 by the time they get on it, and still don't sell) .. which is how it works. ..and nowadays we get one Halo/Gears etc every 5 years .. so that's just gravy.
It's also a great deal for people who can buy games. Do you use Netflix? Do you, because you can't afford to buy movies?
So explain how it works Mr. Microsoft accountant?
Don't know what ssd had anything to do with my post but u wanted to do a small troll so here:
No that's just arbitrary marketing and not a standard everyone adheres to. Chief example, Samsung EVO SSD 860 and 960 use 3-bit MLC. Samsung QVO line are marketed as 4-bit MLC.
You are saying this like gamepass is the only option to play games. It is not. Many people don't like having a sub and prefer to pay 60 bucks for their game. So i really don't know where is the problem.
Spider-man doesn't contain a scene where the camera flies super fast through the city and when you fast-travel there is a subway animation that doesn't play in the demonstration so code was written in order to create that benchmark regardless.
Well, how often do you see big budget movies on Netflix? Don't get me wrong, the service is good for customers, but there should be only games that already broke even at least on retail/digital.
It doesn't need to contain such a scene to do that, pretty sure any engine can do that with any game, with the speed of the storage dictating assets loading of course.
A benchmark typically uses the same code base to compare how 2 hardware would perform. The free roam camera is called a debug mode, god mode, that's a developer build. The game was more than likely not modified to use PS5 new storage API. And that demo was specifically said to be running on a lower spec dev kit.
The link to your image keeps popping up trojan alert on my laptop. LolYes, that's what I meant but you added clarity to the point for who doesn't pay enough attention to the discussion. If Sony could really reach this, that would be really shocking:
I'm sure it was funnier in your head than when you pushed post reply..
So, you're assuming there are 20 million subscribers, each one paying exactly 120 dollars/year? I think there's a reason why MS don't report subscribers numbers, and that's because that number fluctuate so much due to constant $1 promotions and people getting in and out for just one specific game that any number would be quickly imprecise.
As I said, it is just a name, marketing, most manufacturers call 3-bit TLC and 2-bit MLC and Micron calls 3-bit TLC so I don't really get the point.
Yes, the engine can do that in debug mode, but in order to do that you need to do some things, for instance change the camera speed values considering PS4 can't handle that speed so it's probably different on the PS4 dev-kit. My point is that some tweaks were needed in order to make that demo, even if it's just changing a few characters in a parameter file, so it's not just the game installed on a PS5 dev-kit running in BC mode. The chances of that engine loading the game x19 times faster just because it's running on PS5 in BC mode are very slim, unless Spider-man is some sort of anomaly and not representative of the average PS4 game loading times on the PS5 in BC mode.
Don't know what ssd had anything to do with my post but u wanted to do a small troll so here:
its always about PS>everything and will stay that way
very tense.
5.5GB SSD Speed anyone ....
Even theaters got far more chain-like with homogeneous movie lists, with far less variety, exactly because the little\medium caliber movie is not considered even worth to occupy a section of the building, it's all blockbusters for two weeks straight.
Of course they clearly changed something, as this something is related to make the actual loading screens faster than average is another thing. They had to tweak the camera to go so fast in the first place, but the game does not need that speed and it's not related to what realistically one can expect or not because there is no such instance in the game.
You guys are forgetting that most people aren't paying the full $60 for AAA games either. Lots of games have deep discounts and bundles within weeks of release.
