I don't know but I take it you're going to tell me.
You need to ask Greenberg for the excuses and PR. MS will not tell us the truth thats for sure.
I don't know but I take it you're going to tell me.
So instead we have Sony fans accusing him of shilling for Xbox. On the positive side unlike the deal between Sony & Epic, it didn't cost MS $250,0,000 for Gabe's opinion.
I mean... I'm in no rush. When they launch we'll see which studios offer the most impressive games. I'm assuming for you're metric you want visual prowess. Well then admittedly, Sony's studios dominate on that front...so far. The PS4 was more powerful than the one and the PS3 was more powerful than the 360(though 360 games gave Sony a run for the money). This is the first power shift we've seen in a long time so I'll trust my gut and the specs when I say I expect fully optimized XSX only titles to look better than PS5. If I'm wrong I'm wrong hell I'll likely by both anywayProof is the end results. We wait. About time MS showed something running on the console, up until now we dont even know if anything is running on XSX.

Literally the next post.Who accused him of shilling? Is there a reason you might be touchy and very reactive to this kind of tabloid shade towards PS5?
The man's entitled to his opinion. Just remember he caters specifically to PC's, for which Microsoft often offers their games for new, and his career started out at Microsoft. He worked there for over a decade creating and working on Windows. Ironic though, since Sony were the ones that opened up for crossplatform play between Steam and PS3 for Portal 2 while Microsoft declined not to.
This would be like if Cerny left Sony a few years ago and started his own successful middleware company, and when asked on a show which console was better he said Playstation. Like duh, of course he would.
Ooooh... I don't know. I wouldn't brag about checkerboard Ray tracing in GT7 or incorrect reflections altogether in Ratchet. The games look amazing and implement something I even didn't think the Ps5 would pull off convincingly. I was wrong. Shit looked great..... but ....you know.....it's a bit gimpedIts strange that Ps5 has supposedly weak RT and yet its on every Sony game on first showing....
Lets wait and see eh
He has access to both, so he should know!

Your hyperbole is hilarious. BUT:
you speaking with too much logic man, again this isnt news only in the sense that it brings xbox gaffers out of hiding after last weeks offering. If anything maybe ms will leverage there relationship and have gabe work on something for them. im sure it would be welcomed.The man's entitled to his opinion.

.....at least it has smart delivery. Thanks uncle Phil!Yup keep showing the pinnacle of Xbox gaming, I love that GIF.
Literally the next post.
Yep gabe is pretty neutral. He's just telling it like it is. Xbox Series X is just the better system.So instead we have Sony fans accusing him of shilling for Xbox. On the positive side unlike the deal between Sony & Epic, it didn't cost MS $250,0,000 for Gabe's opinion.
Ok... then reply to whomever made that comment .Literally the next post.
No one PR's for a company he worked more than a decade ago. If he liked a console, he wont say he liked another console just because he worked there once.I'm not saying he's shilling, just that I am not surprised at where his interests lie. No big deal.
But why? Seriously, what’s your reasoning behind your preference, or show us why it is unique. His opinion has no value if he don’t back it Up like sweeny.Asked directly which of the two consoles – PS5 or Xbox Series X – he considers the better one, Newell went with Xbox without hesitation.
“Why?” asked the host. “Because it’s better!” replied Newell.
“I don’t have a stake in that race,” he clarified. “Obviously, we do most of our development on personal computers, but of the two I would definitely go with an Xbox.”
Death Stranding isn't a Halo or Gears, though. When we see Uncharted or The Last of Us on Steam, then it would be comparable.isn't death stranding on STEAM?
he basicly said "i dont want to switch my favourite controller" lol...c'mon man. Let's not do this. I don't want to bait a console war, you know why it's objectively more powerful and I know why the PS5 is objectively faster. This guy makes money from PC-sphere what do you expect him to say,? He knows his shit and we understand the opinion
3 words is all we need from the Gaben. One word from him means alot. He doesn't speak or give that many interviews."cause it is"
i'm convinced, i can't buy PS5 now and will buy Xsx
that means there are < 1k textures in the game. ps5 is doing 8k textures ! amazing.God I hope there is a difference.
3 words is all we need from the Gaben. One word from him means alot.
Gabe Newell prefers Xbox Series X to PS5
If he had to choose, the head of Valve would go for Xbox Series X over PS5.www.vg247.com
EPIC VS VALVE IN THIS CONSOLE WAR
SWEENEY VS GABEN
CERNY VS SPENCER
WHO SHALL WIN
that's prolly because it was shitI recall Gabe not liking the PS3 either.
the SSD is the easy part for PC, the PS5 I/O will take a longer time to match, it will need new GPU designs.Dream on, your magic SSD is not going to do the miracles you think it will.
Thing is, in a normal world, asking what console you prefer is a pretty casual question. Neither Gaben nor the host thought too deeply about it, there was no reason to.Its not about if he is lying or telling the truth lol.
Answering "its better" doesnt tell us jack.
In any decent interview the follow up question would be "why is the x better than the playstation?"
I haven't seen anything yet... looks like most of the stuff was CGI and a few years out... which is fine, I mean PS4 took a while to get going. I just thought they would put in a bigger effort after the generation they've had....
I said its the file system, data on Windows needs to go through more stops between cpu/gpu/ssd. you can't build a rig that matches the PS5 speed because the pieces don't exist yet. and no PC vendor or parts manufacturer has yet announced future plans to match the PS5 I/O.....you realize that the windows is bound only to the Ram and processing needed to run idle in the background right? It's 2020, most PCs are built to spec knowing exactly how much to set aside for an operating system that ships with the hardware when building a monster rig. A console is just that...a closed source gaming PC/console. The OS running on PS5/XSX will be less taxing to keep everything together in the background but let's not act like windows 10 is such a Hog that PC games have not been kicking consoles in the anal cavity for the last 30 yrs. 2020 is not THE YEAR for an operating system to finally Bog down a fully modified gaming PC to the point where it's outperformed by a console.
Kracken with every trick bell and whistles couldn't run MS flight simulator at full fidelity. The XVA probably won't either
He hasn't aged well.
yes. however there are 2 questions.Thing is, in a normal world, asking what console you prefer is a pretty casual question. Neither Gaben nor the host thought too deeply about it, there was no reason to.
I think you're the one going too deep in a semi-casual conversationyes. however there are 2 questions.
which one do you like the best ?
and
why do you like that one the best ?
seems like the host went deeper than gaben.
It doesn't operate that way anymore. Nadella changed the internal structure.Gabe literally made his fortune from MS stocks as an employee, and that money was used to make Valve and Steam.
However, rest assured that he is ready to get backstabbed at any time. He knows how MS operates from the inside.
