But an unboxing was already leaked so wouldn't that be redundant?

S for Special. Sort of like special olympics special.

Even the PS5 BOX had enough FUD for this year. Poor little thing

As I said in a different thread, I'm pretty sure Sony released a new SDK with a backport of some of the storage api for the PS5, sans the hardware decompression (but now done on the GPU on the PS4). They might also have done a compatible assets id storage read directly into GPU memory, as is done on the PS5. This'll ensure the same code can be used on PS4 and PS5 BC, and should improve read speeds even from a HD.

Do you think the hardware decompression on the PS4 is a bottleneck?

I know a lot of Ponies will like this, but it's pretty obvious that most unpatched, previous games are capped by their target device.
It doesn't undermine the Series S as a console.
I wonder how this channel manages to drive such traffic with bad analysis and titles like this.
Oh wait...

I thought it was already known that Series S was going to use enhaced versions of XB1S instead of XB1X.

okXSX unboxing experience and quality of materials used is miles ahead of PS5.

What the fuck is this about now?
Why not at least post what this tweet may be about? Sony related? MS related? AMD related? WHAT?!!

I would get that, but the fact that a game that probably has an unlocked frame-rate can’t do it for the S version doesn’t help. And that also doesn’t explain why a REMASTERED for next-gen game that is Devil May Cry 5 being redone for next-gen can’t have ray-tracing on S... it’s clearly limited. I really wanted to like it.

So you wanted RT on a 4TF machine?

still doesn’t explain games that are being remastered for next-gen not having ray-tracing. Especially when Microsoft touts it as a 1440p, Ray-tracing, cheaper X... I really wanted to like it.

Series S is a piece of shit.
I can't believe I actually considered it. Maybe out of desperation because PS5 is sold out in my region into next year but fuck this. I'm going to wait it out for PS5.
Will give me enough time to go gear hunting. I need better headphones and will maybe pick up a nice gaming chair.
No, I honestly didn’t expect that and I believed the devs who had issues with it.. But I’m not the one who marketed the system as a 1440p ray-tracing mini Series X like Microsoft has... Always better to be honest about a system’s capabilities and under-promise but overdeliver—especially when the internet is a thing. But Microsoft seems to be doing the opposite. They set this tone in their marketing info.

The funny thing is we'll have two things going forward:
If devs need to make sacrifices like removing RT from a game for it to run on XSS: "Lazy devs!"
If games run the same on PS5 and XSX and don't take advantage of them extra flops: "Lazy devs!"

Its being compared to the first 12 weeks of ps4 preorders, not first 12 wk of sales.

See I didn't make shit up or take what store staff at JB and EB sad to me out of context based off the information that they had at hand and have been instructed to not take anymore preorders

Curious. Hopefully since updating it will be 60fps at increased IQ

Just got an email that my Amazon preorder has been secured. Still no date provided but keeping my fingers crossed for launch.

I know I know but it could give a rough estimate and a point of difference for when Sony announce day 1 to week 12 figures next year

Apparently they sold over 1 million units through preorder by late October of 2013.

its not too late to realize it. I called it from the beginning. Buying S is just a waste of money. Ud rather wait for the inevitable xcloud tv stick.

Was it that people were ripping on the Xbox Series X packaging? Cuz, it looks good to me. Definitely more like the 'Apple' style of packaging that Sony seems to have gone with. But...bottom line...who gives a FUUUUUUUUCK about the packaging? We want the consoles! Cool packaging is cool...I mean I appreciate it. But that really just serves to hype you and help you validate your own purchase to yourself before you ever use the product. So not a big deal.

You know...I'm sure that just like in ANY group you have some folks that will do pretty much anything you can think of, some people would rip on packaging no matter what. Hell, some probably WILL still rip on the Microsoft packaging. But WHO CARES? The forum in general.....nope.

The second part of your post is why he had a meltdown. Couldn't understand people don't care about the box

Ah...so the OPPOSITE of people ripping on it. People not APPRECIATING it enough. I see...thanks. Well, like I said, I think the Xbox packaging looks dope. It looks well done. Sony's is very much more....practical and not frilly. Just is what it is. Like I said...I just want the damn console. WHICHEVER one you get, you want the console. I don't feel I'm likely to keep the boxes or packaging around...at least not after I've had it for a month or so and can be sure I don't have a DOA or early fail unit.
Thanks!

A strangely erotic description, and yet.. Not creepy at all!Many missed this in the reveal trailer. In real life the inside plates of the PS5's labia are patterned with the symbols

I'm not an expert but wouldn't that be because of the API? Xbox uses directx. PC uses directx. An update would be needed for Sony's API... or am I dumb?

Even the PS5 ITSELF has ray-tracing, while the xsx next to it is like, "...".
This post sure did receive a lot of replies from people who didn't care about it. Interesting study in forum psychology.XSX unboxing experience and quality of materials used is miles ahead of PS5.
