Like I said in the other thread....at the end of the day my guess is the difference between both will be negligible.

History is really on Sony's side, they have pretty much the stronger hardware as long as they don't release a year+ before competition. It's probably on MS best interest to not sell on a lose since they probably won't sell as much hardware than sony and probably have the same ration again we have this gen, leverage gamepass and xcloud

The one thing I'll say is regardless of who has the most powerful system its price that's truly gonna matter and not just consolewise, game wise, service wise, accessory wise. This gen is gonna be wild. Not to mention that we will also probably get a ps5 pro and Scarlett pro 3 or 4 years later

I dont knows why this still matters. Super fast car dont mean that is super safe, super economic, etc, etc. It all depends how you drive.
Give me the gold gems, and I buy your console.

Not to mention Sony first party carries a lot weight in which they earned this gen. PS4 final year ending with a bang (DS, Last of Us, Ghost) will bring that momentum right into PS5

I'm still betting on MS to have the stronger console. It means more to their console business than it does to Sony. I could see them losing 50-100 dollars per console just to make sure. Their money is going to come from software sales and live/gamepass subs anyway.

Means very little imo in the grand scheme of things. Both will likely be performing well over 10TF, do we even care after a certain point, they'll be pushing 4k with ease. Main thing for me is the CPUs are massively better.

Services and Games is what people should really be talking about.

What's with this cult around Mark Cerny? Isn't AMD making the console based on Ryzen3 and Navi? I don't doubt that he's working on the specs but is he really what people make him out to be when AMD is developing the CPU and GPU?

I trust Cerny, people keep comparing Pro to one X and don't realize one X is out a year later with an extra 100 bucks on top. Sony really shipped a 400 box that they can build at the time.

If true Microsoft can package their next console before launch and throw into river. And be a switch/steam publisher for rest of life

There's a little more to being a system architect than accepting whatever AMD gives you and duct taping it together.

Almost all console developers take hits and losses on hardware. They both will take losses on trying to achieve the right price and attractiveness to consumers. Even though Sony isn't trying to go that route anymore remember it was Sony that took huge losses on ps3.

My money is on Cerny and Sony to have the stronger hardware. Also for Sony to have a better SSD/proprietary hybrid solution. I'm up in the air about Raytracing, I think both will be similar.

Phil said console sales are not that important so why go all out and lose money?

My little brain isn't going to comprehend this if PS5 doesn't sit in the middle between cheap Scarlett and expensive Scarlett.

Playing all the best games is the only way to fly.

Y'all need to stop the Nintendo disrespect and stop pretending this is a Sony/MS only fight.

Even if it is, I hope Sony's more humble about it instead of replicating MS's "Blah, blah, most powerful console. Best on Xbox" slogan. Let the games speak for themselves.

Specs are great and all but they mean fuck all if the user experience is absolute trash.

I would hope that Microsoft don't have another Xbox One fiasco where the UI runs like dog shit and the games can't even hit standard performance targets.

I would hope that Sony doesn't continue their dog shit UI as well.

After playing on the PS3 again, the XMB is still my favorite media bar. would love to see the return of it. Felt so easy to get to the media I wanted fast because everything was already organized nicely in categories and folders were easy to do. Took PS4 so long to get folders.

Such a weird tweet. So rumors before E3 said PS5 was stronger... But we will see. I dunno if that suggests he knows that's wrong or he is just playing the current internet game of stoke the fanboys.

Base PS4 > Base Xbox One last time I checked so I'm not really surprised? I just want specs that can handle Cyberpunk very smoothly.

Man, this is flaming the fires of console war.

Personally, I just hope that the computational disparity between the two is not as substantial as it was between Xbox One (OG, S) and PS4 Base/Slim.
