Star Wars squadron is just running in BC mode on PS5, because it supports the definitive version, which is VR.
Rocket League is just unpatched a last gen game.
Warzone also just needs a patch. It will most likely also run better when at 120fps, just like Black Ops.
You are in denial and blinded by grief.
As for the poll: just the DualSense makes the PS5 the definitive place to play. Having the best console graphics and performance is a nice bonus, but nothing more.

I feel it is a bit heated now just cause many xbox fans for one year were in everyone's face about superior xsx and ps5 being weak and down clocking to 9tf and so many other fake fud.
Once this few weeks passes no one will care that much and both will become pretty similar.at the end gamers will win .

XSX for everthing, because of the godlike controller and better performance in the future, PS5 for PSVR2.

Still, doesn't change the fact that multiplats will play best on PC, always have been, always will.

Yep.
Remember the gloating after Road to PS5 and up until the first performance reviews from Digital Foundry a few weeks ago.
Yeah now we have to wait for tools, full RDNA2 to be unlocked and patches for the X to show its 12TF superiority over the PS5.
Don't forget the devs got their series X devkits late so they are not familiar with developing for this new platform. We need to give them more time to unlock the 12TF monster lurking within.
Them goalposts have moved yet again. Darn goalposts.

Just today he dug up a 9 month old thread of mine trying to make a point or something. Didn't quit give 2 shades of a fuck to be honest. Found it quite comical he did that but also quite disturbing.
It must be love. I dunno.

I expect games to continue to have the best performance on PS5 the entire gen, with a few exceptions here and there.
The customizations haven't even been tapped yet, it's an extremely capable machine from what we've read.

Some of you are just fanboys and will never have an honest thought or idea about these consoles.

I'm sitting here canning myself at this. I've never seen this happen before where tweets are being doctored. Seriously.
One has to wonder if this is a Discord plan.
Next thing you know they will plan to kidnap John and force him to praise Xbox at gunpoint. Sick mofos.

I wish I had a definitive answer because, as an owner of both, I need to know which one to buy cyberpunk on!!!!!

Probably yes. Not because it's more powerful but because it looks like it'll be more successfull and hence the devs will put in more work for PS5 optimization. But we'll see I guess.

It's going to be close between the two machines either way. Very glad that nobody is getting shafted.

The stats don't lie, the PS5 is at pole position overall......Better effects, higher resolutions and better framerates...Mix and match, PS5 delivers the better experience...

To early to tell. As much as I very much doubt 'the tools' will be a panacure to the XSX's current minorly lagging behind, it's not impossible.
I would say however that as it stands, the PS5 does seem like the best value proposition in the industry.
I expect the current parity and minor differences between XSX and PS5 to continue, and combined with Playstation's vastly superior first party output (Xbox now has the potential to match, but the proof will be in the pudding), there's very little to recommend the XSX full stop.
There's PC too of course, but at the start of a new gen as we are, there's even less bang for your buck than usual with PC gaming, so while it's true 'PC' provides the best experience, you pay a heavy premium for that.
Switch is also no longer a contender on Multiplats, being barely strong enough to run games from it's own generation, it's absolutely buggered when it comes to running current gen games.
Once a current gen Switch 2 hits, it'll be a contender again though, especially for Japanese titles.

My predictions for fun
XSX will definately win every workload where you have to run 4 games in paralllel like a server, as that is the primary design focus, with extended shader arrays to keep 4 blocks of shader ararys to run 4 games.
XSX will also be very good at parallel compute workloads, so will win some there.
For traditional 1440p60 console games ps5 will stay marginally ahead or same IMO, as you cant change XSX hardware/
For Nanite Ue5 and small triangles, ps5 will also have an advantage, so its going to be a long gen until refreshes come out.
IF XSX had been designed for console only, no server consideration at all, it would of had 6 shader arrays and we would not be having this thread. XSX would of been like a low clock 6800 with 4 CU disabled, but it is not that design.
Note I was saying this 3 months ago, so no change really.

What's wrong with the PS5 build quality?
Honestly, it's like Sony hasn't been in the hardware industry since forever.

Xbox fans seems to be worst atm. I am a Sony fan myself so I am a bit biased.. if you are so insecure to fake a tweet then I don’t know.

I suspect even if PS wins all faceoffs in 2021.....In December 2021, it will still be too early to tell....I think lots rest on the ETA of the Series X tools, that may be December 2022 who knows, but in the meantime, before the Series X gets sorted, resolution will be lowered way below PS5 so the X can have par performance or ummmm! performance still below PS5 overall....

Yes, the PS5 is the clear winner here. In the 3 weeks its been on sale and handfull of games available for it, it has proven what an insurmountable leap it has taken over the XSX. Microsoft needs to cancel production of its console, break the entire company up and Phil Spencer should be thrown in prison for the remainder of his natural life.

Too early to tell....
but the fact that xbox was bragging for a whole year, that they had the most powerful console... the console that, on paper, has better specs....
That somehow happens to run most launch games worse the PS5!? Regardless of the reason, it's a bit of a PR clusterfuck for xbox. They desperately needed a win.

Voted for pc - my 3080 already outperforms both machines and next generation of gpus will leave them in dust 
As for consoles I'd say it's virtually draw so PS5 wins due to their studios and controller (I got it for pc and even without extra features it's amazing)

Consoles are for exclusives, PC for multiplats.

FFVIIR, Ghost of Tsushima, The Last of Us II, more Spiderman, Demon's Souls Remake. And now third party games are not performing as badly on PS5 as popular belief dictated for months.
What a terrible, terrible year.

Don't make me go through your post history and show you declaring Series X the 'winner' 6 months ago, without seeing games on either let alone multiplats, because you read some marketing theoretical numbers....

It's not rage, it's fun watching all that BS and FUD backfire this heavily. I always come to these threads with popcorn to watch the comedy and meltdown.
