The release? You have to announce the thing first.
Or you know, some of the tech minded guys are actually doing research into fabrication processes and development roadmaps and conclude Fall 2020 is the best time for the PS5 to release and provide a "proper" generational leap over current gen in visuals. Not everyone in this thread base their opinions on "feelings"
4k is now the standard for TV, so no point at all in making a system for the end of 2019 that can't do native 4K and when i say Native 4k i don't mean with a hamstrung system (like your alluding to) that needs to cut resources in other areas to achieve that like what the X is doing now.
What?! No, this makes no sense...
Not saying its secret sauce but console optimisation exists which can bring more out of the hardware whereas PC has to more brute force the game played on it so it pushes up the console hardware, while there are driver optimisation on PC it won't be as optimised compared to a game developed on a singular hardware console
You do realize that GPU is just very slightly better than the GPU in the XBX? Yep, PS5 will be around the same power as the XBX, here we go with this nonsense again...
Optimization is a wildly misunderstood term in gaming forums. Devs don't necessarily have more juice to squeeze out of console hardware than they do from equivalent PC hardware, but rather games are built around the strengths and weaknesses of the console hardware. Earlier this gen, the i3 and 750Ti combo was able to keep up with the PS4 in many multiplatform titles because games were not yet built to overcome the weak Jaguar CPU's which bottlenecked performance on the PS4, but as time went on, that PC combo failed to keep up and today no one even mentions it anymore. This is a very simple explanation, but this is really what "optimization" is more about
Well, the GTX 1070 is soon going to be a two year old card, ~6.5tflops, 8 gigs of GDDR5 memory that's at 256GB/s if I'm not mistaken.
Righhttt, so the PS5, a console coming out at least two years after the XBX, will completely gimp out on the GPU just to beef up the CPU. Sure, let's go with that /s
*face palm*
It's being in no way picky. I took a random screenshot whilst playing Beyond, and I took a screen grab from literally the frame most evocative of the Beyond screenshot from the trailer.
You're*
And you're missing the entire point I was making.
I will never feel like spending $500 on a new console just to have deal with yet another crappy launch line up. Push PS5 back as far as possible imo. PS4 is getting great games.
It's extremely likely if Sony can cut production cost which they may be able to do depending on the available tech then. 4K Blu-Ray is unlikely though, IMO, as that could be PS5 differentiation for Sony.
What if PS5 could play new PS4 games at 60FPS at 4K "High Setting"? They could easily release PS5 in 2019, publishers would ramp up graphics/AI/etc... like they do on PC and people could still play same games on PS4/Pro. This happens every day of the week on PCs.
I feel like they will get rid of Pro and stick with slim or super slim PS4 at $200 ish and ps5 at $400
That's an extent of BC loss I think most users would be accepting of. All Move games too, obviously. I'm not aware if the positional tracking of the controller is OS level, I would presume it was, in which case, if Sony have a next-gen tracking system, the OS could handle that in regards to BC titles.
