Ooooh! So the XSX has got coherency engines like the PS5, too? (At least that's what my uneducated mind came up with.)

I buy all consoles, so I'll keep my playstation heritage on this and already am grinding the pitchforks fo' your ass :messenger_beaming: :messenger_beaming: :messenger_beaming:
I buy all as well and i know your joking about yourself but your spot on. Ain't saying all Xbox only fans are innocent and there seems to be some decent PS only fans but there are quite a few of them who are vile. A bit of banter is fine but It's embarrassing the genuine hate some of them seem to have.

nope, wasn't joking :messenger_sunglasses:
I have emphasized that these people are not even young kids in age, but rather full-grown idiots

I really hope there's a Digital Foundry video coming out explaining some of this Hot Chips jargon. There are too many acronyms that I don't understand.

I wonder if XSS wasn't supposed to launch in September and something happened? Did they really want to be out of stock all the way to November on hardware?

I think Covid also helped console sales earlier in the year, so stock ran out sooner than expected?

So they have made the store changes into the general UI, really liking the design and look! now to see Sony's!

Also ANIMATED BACKGROUNDS!


Where were the animated backgrounds?

Curved corners to the boxes looks like the biggest stylistic change. Like the phone input integration.

Very cool, looks slick!

I thought they said they wouldn't be changing the dash at all though?
 
Can you still share stuff from the console than a phone? Or is it phone only? If so, don’t understand why both couldn’t be a option.

Will we see more themes than just light and dark?

Will we finally see some updates to achievements like a completed category or their take on Platinum?

Will My Profile be updated for things like adding a background, badges or a likes to play option?

It's literally in the video showcasing the dashboard with animated backgrounds ....

I was getting excited at seeing the UI video thinking we were in for a nice demo but it's three minutes of bollocks. The only time you see it is for 1 second as above.

Yea, but you guys are Xbox gamers. I'm quite sure it'll be a different response if whatever I tell you doesn't pan out to be 100% accurate.

Nah, no pitchforks here. Unlike another group of fans, the vast majority of Xbox fans are not delusional enough to believe that the Series X can compete with a high-end computer, nor do we believe it has RDNA 3, the SSD is as or even more important than the GPU or that it is it's close to a 3080ti in performance. 🤪

We also are fine with sharing our 1st party games with you PCMR guys, the more the merrier. You can speak freely here and unless you deliberately mislead us, I think most of us will be thrilled for any Xbox inside info or insight you can offer.

An article on the misconcepts about UE5 demo. Thanks to Neo_game Neo_game for finding the blog.

The author points out that the demo is not fully utilising ssd speeds and demo should run on any pc, ps4, xbox one and even mobiles.
In other words, this demo will run on ps4, Xbox One and mobile phones. That was, after all, the whole point of nanite, right?
I was trying to make the point that this demo doesn't appear to be utilising those speeds in the way it's designed - it's still designed with the old bottlenecks in mind.

A lot of assumptions that contradicts what we know. Epic has confirmed there's no hidden loading screens, and his SSD reading speed doesn't take into account data decompression bottleneck.

Well it is actually a known fact, it was officially stated at the very presentation by Epic that the engine will be compatible with both next and current-gen consoles, as well as mobiles and PC, like Unreal Engines always do, there were just a few clowns who spread their FUD campaign that the demo is possible only on PS5 due to it's revolutionary SSD, but that's just their own delusions, while every mentally sane persona knows that the data needs to be processed before the final image goes onto your display, and that processing power is in fact the limiting factor determining how much data you can actually utilize before the performance tanks below the targeted level. I won't be surprised if an ordinary 500MB/s SATA SSD will be more than enough for reat-time asset streaming, the IOPS and seek time difference compared to HDD is already gigantic, everything more is just a bonus.

Epic should release UE5 tech demo on PC few months from now and then I'm sure people will test all popular SSDs, including 500MB/s.
