This is becoming a regular occurrence.
I watch some comparison videos, and read through the posts here. These threads usually don't get real good until they reach page 2 or 3. So from pages 2-5 or so, I am laughing my ass of at the same usual people's comments. It's the kind of comedic entertainment you really can't get anywhere else.
But here's the problem... As these threads get to about pages 5-6 or so, I find that I'm no longer enjoying it any longer. It's at this point as I continue to read the posts, that my laughter turns to head shaking. At this point I bail, as from here out, I know that things get embarrassingly sad as posts go on.
I get where those who simply enjoy looking at the comparisons, but can't wrap their head around why all these same people constantly fight over what amounts to negligible differences most times are coming from. However, I enjoy watching the battles that go back and forth by both sides. Seeing how the Xbox fan will place importance on something the XSX does better, while the PS5 fan will downplay it, in order to place importance on an aspect the PS5 does better. It's like watching a digital chess match with words and features as they go back and forth.
The last few weeks though, once it gets a few pages in, that enjoyable chess match that I've been watching devolves into something akin to one of the chess players becoming a pigeon... Which at that point simply struts around knocking over all the chess pieces. Shitting all over the board while doing so. At this point it's no longer an enjoyable chess match.
There are blatantly obvious examples of the lighting being vastly better on the XSX version, as well as entire objects that don't even seem to exist on the PS5. This is on top of the basic resolution and physics advantages that the XSX has. Yet there are still some of those PS5 fans here digitally duking it out as if a couple of frames dropped here or there offset, and outweigh all that. The XSX has drops down to 52, while the PS5 has drops down to 54. Unless there's a constant and wild fluctuation (which there's not), there's literally no way that offsets all those other differences mentioned previously. And yet there's still some here claiming the PS5 is the better version as if it were some forgone conclusion. Sometimes even going so far as to post the "another one" gif, making things even worse.
C'mon guy's. At some point you just gotta call a duck, a duck and call it a day. You move on to fight another day. Arguing that the PS5 version is on par or better than the XSX at this point is just sad. There's no enjoyment to be had at watching people disconnect from reality, and substitute it with their own. At a demo no less.
