Seriously? Nothing said about the XSX or PC during the demo? Only talking about the PS5? Tim Sweeney saying he isn't allowed to share comparisons with the XSX version? Where do you think this is coming from, Epic's big heart and generosity trying to hype up the PS5 and PS5 alone?
They mentioned PS5 twice in the video. Intro and once during. In the interview he talked about PC.
He said he wouldn’t offer performance comparisons. And he shouldn’t because MS is also a partner and it would make zero sense to say anything that could be blown out of proportion. This is Tim Sweeney, he ain’t here to help you in console spec wars.
The demo was real time. He says the PS5 ssd/Io which was a massive aspect of what was being shown, is far ahead of anything in the market and will be the highest performer come fall. And you want him to go out there and say what? Engage in console wars?
Sponsored lol, where was the Sony logo? The PlayStation logo? Somebody from Sony? None, zip, nada. It’s a real time gameplay tech demo and obviously the big question was always going to be “What’s it running on?” The point was to promote U5 for next gen.
And yes U4 had a demo on PS4 after it had one on PC, and well of the consoles the PS4 was certainly the more performant one so it wouldn’t make any sense to choose the Xbox one to showcase it. Same case here, you certainly can get a PC with ssd/Io comparable to XSX so it wouldn’t make sense to pick the XSX over a PC would it?
Aka you trippin, accept that for the purposes of what they wanted to showcase the PS5 was the optimal platform and move on.
