Times really are hard when fanboys mention a better sound chip. Feels like I'm back in the 80s and early 90s.
No, times are hard when fanboys dont see real technical advancements from being a fanboy.
Fact is that there have not been similar real 3D audio in any consoles so far, so how can you or anybody say that "it is just same sound chip vs sound chip like always"?
If we trust in Cernys words, and it is really something new, not this basic "hmm game sound comes maybe from left / back etc" but in the best scenario it is like "I dont feel like I hear game sounds from headphones, it feels like I am literally inside the gaming world"
Then it could be kind of what VR is for visuals and how it makes you feel that you are inside the game.
So, if this is the case, then it could be true that "normal sound chip" would not be enough, and using same setup as xbox would use xx% of cpu/gpu to do the calculations
Which case is more probable:
A) Sony used millions to build this custom 3D audio chip. Registered hundred people inside the audio recording room with microphones inside their ear canals to perfect the technology, told us about it in long presentation and it is really something new and using regural setup + cpu/gpu would spend lot of performance to it
B) Sony is lying and they just spent millions for fun and it is really just same as regular audio chip
I guess xbox fans / gamers in general are just fucking stupid, if they cant look tech as tech, instead of screaming how everything is bullshit, Sony is bullshit, their advancements are bullshit and xbox won the gen just because few tflops.
Both consoles are strong, both have bit different approach and goals.
Consoles arent even launched and people speak like they have already played PS5 games and 3d audio is nothing special, SSD isnt nothing special and so on. Pure idiocy
