Which one ? Two weeks one ? Haha let's keep that when ps meeting is confirmed. We will get the train going haha
200 pages of nothing. Era is going down when the PS5 is shown.
Remedy is publicly traded and no one person owns a controlling stake:
Even the top 20 share holder's only own a total of 41% of the company.
How could Sony even realistically buy a company like that? Wouldn't it take a huge amount of people agreeing?
edit: Guess to 20 own 53%, read the wrong number.. so seems a little more possible.
What the hell was that kid trying to do? That looks so awkward and unnatural.
You get too technical you cause PR/mass media problems. You don't talk about numbers at all you get technical voices annoyed and they start to speak for you. It's the early middle ground. It will take time after the launch even before we know exactly what's what.
But weren't they extremely specific with the Xbox One X reveal? Why shift gears? [Snip]
One difference between that situation and this one is that with the One X, the public knew absolutely where the PS4 Pro stood in terms of processing power. I don't know if that explains why MS has been a little more reticent with the exact details - or if it's still a matter of locking things down that aren't settled yet - but I have a hard time believing that we can't even know until AFTER the launch.
With great power comes great responsibility.

Spider Man 2 PS5 reveal tomorrow confirmed?
No need my guy. Size of the chip alone tells us it's basically 12 TF.Also, I've made this point in the past couple of days, but as it's come up again, I'm sure that XSX will be 12TF Navi not GCN for the simple reason that Phil Spencer tweeted a link to this Digital Foundry article which very clearly claims 12TF, a very daft move if it isn't 12TF, and Spencer doesn't strike me as a daft man.

Sticking with broader descriptors works from a flexibility perspective, and those broader descriptors are likely going to mean more to you average consumer than, "XX teraflops!" anyway.
Is that today like that, i mean in my youth there was talk about 16bit and 32bit, or how many colors could be displayed, or sprites at the same time....
I think if your long time competitor really has only 9tf, that new competitor has about 10tf, and you have 12tf, i would print those numbers on the box.

The SOC's that AMD are building for Microsoft and Sony are *highly* customized specifically for the vendors based on specs, cost, and performance requirements that each platform defines for AMD. There is no off-the-shelf equivalent of anything that goes inside an Xbox or PlayStation, and the idea they are "pre-made" really misunderstands what's happening and sort of diminishes the role of Cerny or the architects at Microsoft in terms of how much custom work goes into the chip.
AMD has IP and Processes. Sony and Microsoft work with AMD's list of available IP and Processes, add in some of their own requirements, and have an entirely new SOC created specifically for them. This process takes years. Everyone is aware that the PS4 Pro GPU had unique HW instructions for temporal reconstruction, as well as support for FP16 that did not exist together in other part of the AMD portfolio. The ability to decode Xbox 360 textures and much of the native DX12 instructions in the Xbox SOC's only appear in the versions that ship on Xbox (the DX stuff I believe ended up in later AMD GPU's.) This is the 'secret sauce' that is so often talked about, and it absolutely can work for (or against) a specific console. I don't think Sony got much mileage out of FP16, and Xbox One's implementation of ESRAM didn't help them as much as expected either. While the Checkerboard techniques helped PS4 Pro a lot, and the ability to decode X360 textures is why you have such a good back compat story on Xbox.
Here's the best way I can think of to describe it. Think of AMD as a Caterer. They have a list of ingredients (e.g. Zen, RDNA, HW RT, etc. etc.) and they also have a set menu based on their ingredients. (RX5000 series, RX Vega series, RX 500 series). Most people think that Xbox and Sony choose from the Menu. But what actually happens is they choose from the ingredients, add in some of their own specific ingredients (DX instructions, Back Compat Code, Checkerboard, etc.) and have an entirely new dish created just for them.
My point is that even though AMD's R&D efforts provide the groundwork, the specific SOC found in PlayStation and Xbox consoles are completely bespoke designs in collaboration with AMD and the platform makers, and are designed years in advance. This is why anyone speculating that wholesale performance changes can happen at any time don't seem to realize how far in advance these decisions are made.
Yes small changes can happen throughout the process and plans evolve from the initial spec to the final production silicon. But you can't grow the performance of the chips this late in the game without restarting some pretty critical, long-pole parts of the process.
I'm only speaking from one side of this, but I'm pretty sure it's similar on the PlayStation side.
EDIT: Upon a re-read, I'm not giving enough credit to AMD's engineers either. It really is a collaboration between the companies. But the performance, cost and business aspects are defined by the consoles. The real silicon engineering is a collaboration.
PC gpus are going to be in 20-40tf range next gen so that's probably not that good idea in the long run.
No need my guy. Size of the chip alone tells us it's basically 12 TF.
The chip. The actual silicon transistors. As a package.Maybe it does for you technical people who understand technical stuff. I'm still only about 50% sure I understand what the word "die" means in this context.
North American soccerWhat the hell was that kid trying to do? That looks so awkward and unnatural.
My equally dumb theory is to hold out hope for an announcement for the meeting in a Super Bowl ad, otherwise we're stuck until after the FFVII remake is out.My dumbass theory.
If Sony doesn't announce a PS5 reveal event the last day of January or the First day of February then a February reveal is dead.
Lol dude you are going to get yourself in trouble....they are going to get you! ;)
March 1st is this Saturday? Is that what they mean when they say leap year?

keep us postedDamn it, you're right. I guess it's 48 GameCubes in constant RDNA flops, but something like 192 GameCubes in Dolphin flops... I'll need to do more research!
This is what happens when you fall off a cliff.Maybe it does for you technical people who understand technical stuff. I'm still only about 50% sure I understand what the word "die" means in this context.
He's physically demonstrating what clinging to the Github leaks look like.What the hell was that kid trying to do? That looks so awkward and unnatural.
Lucky for you guys I already did the math in a previous OT.
2x GameCube = 1 Wii
2x Wii = 1 Wii U
2x Wii U = 1 PS4
2x PS4 = 1 PS4 Pro
3x PS4 Pro = 1 Series X
1 Series X = 48 GameCubes
It's math.
Hahahahaha oh my god.....brilliant!He's physically demonstrating what clinging to the Github leaks look like.
No I don't know any specs or if the leaks are right or wrong just having fun in this very entertaining thread
Just our secretHahahahaha oh my god.....brilliant!
I do know the specs but no one believes me........I'll tell you. Just don't tell anyone.
14tf, Reram, 24GB-16GB HBM and 8GB DDR4......ssst don't tell them. You and me. Only you and me can know!
Well i already asked you if i can be your IV so I naturally trust you!
True but wtf does that mean hahahhaWell i already asked you if i can be your IV so I naturally trust you!
Phil Spencer will see the meltdown and release Halo Infinite gameplay.My dumbass theory.
If Sony doesn't announce a PS5 reveal event the last day of January or the First day of February then a February reveal is dead.
I have no clue.....I just want to be your IV!!!! Whahaha i just thought it sounded nice and we could be like this set of adventurers.True but wtf does that mean hahahha
by the way, my whole name is a reference to my work.
