Regarding all the possibilities of the new gen, all the talk about the amazing PS5's ssd and all the power they will delivery how do you think PC games will look against PS5 and Series X?

Very well.
Especially once the 2020 GPUs get released which may end up surpassing the consoles at least on the high end. Every year after PCs will slowly gain and surpass just like this gen. Consoles are best at what they do, affordability for that years/prior years hardware available

It'll be fine, while PS5 might have an SSD advantage at the start of the gen - like for a year, maybe - even Sony admits that eventually PC SSDs will be better, and obviously already PC has faster CPUs and GPUs.
As always, if you want the *best* looking and running games, you need a high-end PC.

I still have to see Digital Foundry's deep dive and analysis into the performance to make my final judgement. At the moment, I don't have an opinion.
Can't tell unless a game like R&C A Rift Apart comes to PC.
I'd love to have full levels load at 1 to 4 seconds like that. Going to SSD made playing through Deus Ex Mankind Divided a lot easier, but it still had loading screens. Thankfully the animations seemed to stop when the loading was done. Batman Arkham Knight though? They don't care how fast a SSD finish loading. You will watch those death animations and you will learn to hate it silently.

I mean based off what we've seen it looks about what I'd expect out of a high end PC these days but I really gotta see things first hand to say for certain and by the time I'm able to we'll have a whole new set of PC components on the market so...
They'll look like "Quality Mode" but at the framerate of "Performance Mode".
Like i said before: nothing i saw from the first xbox showcase and sony's showcase made me feel like they are impossible of achieving on current hardware.
My guess is that there might be some games that load a bit faster on the consoles, at least for the first year or so, then PC will catch up.
But there's going to be some 30FPS games at launch for the consoles that PC will be able to do at 60FPS, and some people will be confused as to why the PC can do that but consoles can't.
The gap is closer than it was at the beginning of this gen, but I don't think we're at the PC/360 closeness.

I've been wondering if PS5/PC ports are gonna get to a point where the PC requirements will require an SSD?
As one of Era's olds, I can confirm this happens every single console generation, and every time the PC doomsayers end up looking like thundering fuckwits.
I'll be honest none of the games really wowed me in a way people were hyping up the event.
The hype ended up making the reveals look average tbh.

Games in general will eventually yeah, just like how they required DX11 GPUs.
I think once the benchmarks come out people will see the predictable results that PCs are going to keep up with and surpass consoles yet again. When the 3000 RTX line drops, the proprietary SSDs are going to become a meme.
The only think I saw from the PS5 event that might highlight something unique was what I expected which was Racthet showcasing the speed tranferring between worlds. Raytracing, graphics and certainly frame rates can already be exceeded by the PC.
I have an SSD for years already and honestly, a faster SSD sounds great but I never, ever have thought to myself I needed faster load times in any game. Ever. I'm getting on PS5 on release but will likely still be getting multiplats on PC and PS5 for exclusives.
3080ti with the new processors about to come out and a fast SSD, will be more powerful while running everything 4k 60 on ultra.
well it makes sense. Star Citizen requires one to work well.
just like RAM, CPU, GPU, etc.all have minimum spec requirements for games. An SSD requirement is possible
