I feel the same way. I believe that this is a 9TF system myself.

So the takeaway from my limited technical knowledge is that both machines are extremely powerful and because they've both come at problems in different ways there's actually negligible difference overall?
sony's messaging seems pretty messy
lot of ifs, ands, buts, and asterisks it seems like
I wonder what this could have all looked like if they had done a proper reveal prior to this talk

Essentially, yes, which is why this feels like they just tried boosting it because they felt 9 (which is in line with what the Github leak said) was too low compared to the Series X, but that's basically where it'll sit the majority of the time.
Good, but I also want enhanced performance. I know there may be some optimization that might be required, but I would love to be able to play Uncharted 4, Last of Us 2, Horizon Zero Darn, Bloodborne, etc at 60 FPS
If Series X can beat PS5 to market by over a month, and be priced at $499 or less, this is going to be very interesting
To be honest, faster loading is more important to me than minor differences in graphics. Have to see though how much faster it will be. In low numbers it doesn't matter that much, like even 3" vs 6". But something like 10" vs 20" would be big.
It is 10.2, it won't maintain 10.2. It will rarely reach 10 IMO.
Makes sense why MS put so much emphasis on the XSX clocks being "locked". This is bad stuff. Cerny really screwed up with this system.

I don't understand why MS went with the more powerful system. Their studios never put out visually impressive games, and third parties probably won't develop games with XB as the base system.
Again, PS2 launches before it so at the time it was the strongest.
This gen will be a first for Sony.
People should've got the memo.
It's either a big tower to cool (12Tflops) or a smaller one (9-10Tflops) that are already pushing the limits of their enveloppe.
There's no 14Tflops, there never was any.

"its dangerous to rely on teraflops for performance" to quote mark cerny from the stream.
Yikes. This is some massive damage control on their system being slower.
Time will tell, but these posts sound more like comparing a SSD to a HDD, not one SSD to another. Once you're loading at 1GB/s and beyond, how much are you really loading in a scene? It's probably more about access time than the raw read rate. And both drives are so fast I really question if the results are going to be that far apart - it's not like games load 20GB of data a second every second or anything.
To me it feels like people are partially clinging to it because it's the one area that is better, but in my opinion, PS5 will still have load times (just not 20+ second load times), and the load times between the two consoles will be fairly minimal. You're not gonna see PS5 at 10 seconds and SX at 60 seconds, imo it'll be like 2 vs 4, etc. But we'll see, maybe I'm totally wrong. And obviously for indie games and non AAA games it'll be pretty irrelevant too. Your average 2GB or less pixel art indie game like Celeste etc likely won't see any difference between the systems, SSD or resolution-wise. Maybe instant resume would be the deciding factor there, dunno if the PS5 does instant resume or not.
I guess we will see more when they talk about cooling, but yeah unless they have come up with a revolutionary cooling method I can't imagine the PS5 reaches it's peak clock speeds very often, or for very long.
343, Ninja Theory, Playground games, The Coalition, Turn 10 etc make games that look very good. Moon Studios too.
Third party developers will also use that power.
Wrong.
XsX has better
bandwidth,
more gpu and cpu power (at a consistent speed)
better RT
PS5 has better
SSD
Doubtful for third party devs who will largely be developing for the lowest common denominator, and both the XSX and PC markets will basically all be using slower drives
ps1, 2, 3, 4 were all the strongest consoles at the time of their release.
PS5 will launch as the weaker competitor.
The Xbox Series X is hands-down the more powerful machine, but it is seemingly a more simplistic approach - lots of brute power. The PS5 is the 'weaker' of the two, but has been developed with lots of systems and tricks designed to allow devs to squeeze more out of it. Or at least, that's how it seems so far.
I wanted faster loading times. Can you imagine a Bloodborne without loading times????
Nnghhhh
RIght, but the GC and the Xbox came out much later, when it came out it was indeed the most powerful.
