But didn’t MS say the S will be able to produce the same graphics as the Series X? I thought the rules were what MS/Sony says is gospel until proven otherwise? Same goes for the 9tf debate and RDNA 1.5 for PS5? I mean if we’re going down this route now then we have to take into account that Sony’s own PlayStation graphics engineer said it was RDNA 1.5 a halfway house re between 1 and 2 in a private message on Twitter. Yes he tried to walk it back days later after it became big news, something about he was tired or something and confused RDNA1.5 with RDNA2 😂😂 It’s not like it was a slip of the tongue, he actually said it’s RDNA1 with some parts of RDNA2.
I mean as Jinca says, I’d doubt these devs would comment if they wasn’t sure and this is Sonys engineer who developed the graphics architecture on PS5 so he definitely knows his s***.
I think MS mean to say same graphics but lower res. 1080p/ 1440 vs 4K. I don´t know if all next gen game will be 4K ( Native, DLSS, checkerboard etc) as standard. So a machine at 1/2 the teraflop maybe able to render same everything else except lower res.

a 6Tf machine probably is less capable of producing polygons as well, so you have to set the polygon at Serit’s S capability . Not sure Polygons will be chock point next gen.
for my own game, the biggest choke is video memory. Big S 4K textures take massive memories.

So I gather we are choke next gen by PS5 half ass RT and MS low spec Series S.
At 6Tf, it is the new chokey. Why can’t MS just remove the disc drive, reduce the HDD size and call it a day.

i don’t want to be negative Nancy at MS, and be assured falsefully as PS fanboy, but MS keep shooting the foot.
It's 4TF's
 
I wish I was...


He is talking GDDR6 for GPU memory btw. I'm not sure I would take anything this guy says as being representative of real world game engine needs.

On console there is such a thing as close to the metal optimization as well as working within the constraints of a closed box SoC.

Every time I read developer Tweets like this I take it with a serious grain of salt.

He deleted his tweet. Someone got his ass chewed....for false info....or something.
 
According to what dev? 😂🤣😂

"And what Sony are essentially saying are, here’s your tool of options, you can absolutely throttle to the max. We prefer if you didn’t, but if there’s like a fringe case where you’re just off that tiny bit of performance you need, we will let you squeeze a little bit extra. "

"That’s according to a new Digital Foundry analysis, which notes that because Xbox Series S has less RAM than Microsoft’s highest-end
current-gen console (10GB vs 12 GB), it’s “almost a forgone conclusion” that its backwards compatible games will be drawing upon the
less powerful Xbox One S versions.

The $300 / £250 Xbox Series S was revealed earlier this week and will target running games at 1440p, with support for ray-tracing, 120fps
and 4K upscaling. The console has virtually the same CPU as the $500 Series X, but a less powerful GPU, less memory and no disc drive.

Within the current-gen ecosystem, Xbox One X versions of games are able to leverage the console’s additional power for higher resolution,
improved texture filtering, and expanded colour detail. One X offers similar improvements when running compatible Xbox 360 titles.

However, because of Series S’s memory deficit compared to One X, it likely won’t be able to run Xbox One or 360 games with the current-gen
console’s enhancements, it’s claimed."

Phew, I’m glad that’s been cleared up. The console designed for 1080/1440p won’t play the 4K version on 1080p TVs. I can sleep easy now.
 
Going from 30 to 60fps (or more) doesn't sound nearly as exciting when selling consoles, but that's what I am buying.

I'm still not sure I even know what ray tracing looks like exactly.
 
Would this make a difference, for current gen or using it as an external storage for the new gen?


Neither next gen console will let you play next gen games from an external drive (other than the one plugin cartridge your one for xb1).

In the case of the Xbox One X. It would make a difference, but it would be more beneficial if the entire OS was cloned onto the EVO SSD using something like Powershell CMD and some scripts to partition the HDD. This way it would benefit not just the general loading but the snappiness of the system as a whole.

This is one of the most pointless things I've ever seen. It's a SATA m.2 SSD which are not faster than the regular SATA 6Gb 860 EVOs

You countered your own point. The article worked againsts you not for you. 😆

I do not buy for a second that Sony is caught off guard by XSX being $500. If everyone else expected it I doubt Sony didn't also.

I'm ready for this to be over so we don't have to listen to fake insiders

But if think you'd love the immersion... In bulls***. 🐮💨💩
 
No BS, I heard something very similar (minus the ‘this weekend’). I was told $599 PS 5 awhile ago, but wasn’t sure if it was legit.



I also heard from a reliable source that it would be $900 ......and that's just for the digital.

Take it with a grain of salt., though

I never realized devs could be schmucks. Then again, they are just people like us.

These people do not know how to play the game. They should say they got their info from Anonymous sources, & when asked who are these Anonymous sources, you said their identities need to be secret to protect them. Everyone knows Anonymous sources means truth, especially if you like what they say, according to the most reliable, intellectual, pinnacle of morality, knowledge, the truth of the internet, twitter.

The only time Anonymous sources are fake or wrong is you dislike what they said. But they are fake NOT because they are what you dislike to hear, but they just happened to be what you dislike, according to again Twitter.
