You know what, I honestly think MS will call the lesser of the two machines "Xbox Zero".

The main one will simply be called "Xbox", like how the current trend of things is to reset the numbering system.

To all the "but it's GCN"-ers:

There's no way they're putting a GCN GPU in a mobile SoC.

AMD's bridgman: "You could call it a hybrid but not in that sense... we used to talk about GCN as an ISA, but it seems that most people outside AMD think of GCN as a micro-architecture instead (ie an implementation of the ISA). RDNA is GCN ISA but not what you think of as GCN architecture."

nVidia's ISA is 4 years older than GCN.

Late to the thread, dont know if it was already discussed, but I was thinking the next Xbox proposal will be a seamless Xbox ecosystem, where it doesnt matter where you play be it a tablet, a PC or an Xbox console, youll have the same games working on any of them. Console and PC will run games natively and tablet through the cloud. (Ignore me if its a lame comment.)

best names for next xbox:
Xbox 2
Xbox Z
Xbox X2 (or just X2)
Considering how much they love to follow trends and how much they love stupid names (XBOX sad...), I think they will call it Xbox Woke (and only realise how bad the name is after the release).

I could come up with a complementary timeline for the likes of you, but that should stop now. You clearly came in here for console warring and nothing more.

When I see this on PS4, I can't even imagine what the PS5 will look like at the end of its life.

I know. The latest trailers I've seen for PS4 also got me thinking why do we even need a PS5 now when we have visuals as good as this.

Well, it's trailers and downsized gifs.. not that the game doesn't look amazing, but you're setting yourself up for disappointment, if you think that gif is representative of the final game on a 55" 4k tv.

Opinion:

I think lockhart is gonna be about 8tflops, they aren't wasting zen2, gddr6, RT, and SSD on a 4tflops machine. it will do 4k but checkerboarded for 399.
anaconda will be 599 14tflops and has more RT, more RAM, faster bigger SSD.

599 is a big no. 14 TFs is also unrealistic. For console form, with what we know of Navi, better set 13tfs as the max possible and that still might cause a lot of disappointments.

sure 13tflops, but my point is that lockhart is gonna be more powerful than people think.

Gawd, I so wish we get actual specs soon, this wishful thinking/shitposting on pastebin stage is so tedious.

I'm looking forward to the next stage, when we can argue how $SPEC matters (or doesn't matter) compared to competition.

I mean, they should definitely have the power now right?
The issue is not so much the power being enough now, but the requirement of per game optimization to make it work. Since the CELL SPUs were used in many different ways (sometimes at the same time) you can't just have generic ps3 emulation like you can for Ps4 (unless you have an ultra powerful cpu to brute force it, which won't happen on a console).

Yeah I think the hope for PS 1,2,3 BC is completely dead.

PS4 BC is obviously the important one and the easiest to pull off given they basically have the same architecture.

Would have been nice for the Metal Gear Collection though and Silent Hill games.

An additional factor of full BC, that some people seem to not consider, is that developers are less inclined to do remasters of their old games.
I will always favor new IPs and new game entries over remastered games.

I do wish for some remastered games including the ones mentioned above and Demon's Souls, but I would always take a new Dark Souls game over remastered Demon's Souls.
(This does not factor in the difference in work they have to do compared remastered vs new game though)

PS5 will have native BC with PS4, but thats not mean SONY can't use software emulation like Xbox One have be doing so great.
Software emulation is still a possibility, even higher take into consideration the PS5 specs.
edit: hate using the phone for post.

Lol you think Sony doesn't have the talent or ppl to do tht? Don't be naive the issues had to do with the complexity of the cell with bc that is no longer the issue. Your talking about Sony that created one of the best features this generation in "SharePlay" which is feature rich. It is obviously not the same thing but Sony has some of the best talents in the industry.

I was typing on the phone. I forget the 'can't' instead of 'can'. Yes, Sony can make software emulation in the same way Microsoft does with Xbox. Can't see why not beside business decision

I mean, it has to be Xbox Infinite or Xbox Infinity doesn't it? Xbox . Whole Xbox brand is shifting to basically allow you to play from a (near) infinite number of source devices and therefore most any location. You will be able to play Xbox from your Sony Xperia Phone or your apple TV, or your PC via steam, nvidia shield, Switch whatever you have. Headed to grandma's for the weekend? She's got a potato for a PC but it won't matter, you can play Xbox there too. Also, you can buy this handy dandy console coming 2020!

Just to put some perspective...

For Halo Infinite, this will be the first real showing of the next generation game. Microsoft will be running the demos from a PC with an Xbox controller as they don’t want the first impression of the new game to be running on the now dated Xbox One hardware.

MS won't run Halo Infinite on Anaconda but instead high-end PCs.

That means bullshot demo coming with i7 + GTX 2080ti.
