Ask me about my fanboy energy!
Now before everyone turns into a game dev commenting what "should be done" from their armchair
Also, Phil said they just started shipping dev kits during X019.

Yeah, first party probably have them. Halo Infinite is even a launch title.It's possible the only studios that have kits are 1st party.
That might explain it a little. The only other thing I can think of is that Sony's kits really are far along because there really were ready to go this year.
There are still pissed about that 8gb ram on the ps4
Final specs may be changed, but I do not think their Scarlett XDK is much farther behind PS5’s SDK one... if it were it would not be good news if the power specs between the two systems were similar enough and one console had near final dev kits a lot earlier than the other in terms of third and first party developers as you would have a lot more games ready for launch and in a better state on the one where a stable and refined dev kit was available much earlier on.I have no doubts about that. Probably One of the reasons why Warren might be right. MS wants to avoid the same kind of butthurt they experienced in 2013.
"SURPRISE! It's empty!"My wallet will surprise the one talking to me.
They are really quite about everything. You cant be any more 'softer'.I will just say this:
I am beyond sick of Microsoft and their fanboys constantly screaming through the roof tops about this and that. I get that FUD and noise has always been one of MS strategies, but this is enough.
Just shut the fuck up and deliver a quality product. Speak softly and carry a big stick.
Sony is talking to gamers while MS aim too "surprise Sony". As a gamer, i don't care at all. These are just plastic boxes. My wallet will surprise the one talking to me.

Sony hasn't talked to gamers in years. They got over complacent and arrogant. They put commerical needs ahead of gamers the last two years. Meanwhile MS has done a fantastic job making up for their reveal with Mattrick by adding all kinds of consumer friendly features and services.
And the main seller point... cheaper.Ram was their least fuckup in 2013. Even if PS4 launched with 4 it would still be the more powerful machine.
"slowly going in that direction" when talking about PC laptops as if that was a new thing is kind of sad, most laptops will let you upgrade RAM and drive, or at the very least one of the two, MS kind of broke that expectation when they entered the market with their Surface products, they are really made for clueless people.At this point the biggest surprise will be Scarlet running on a modified version of Windows like Windows 10X for Surface Neo. Or may be upgradability(they are slowly going in direction with Surface products and there are some rumour about Surface Studio 3 being upgradable)?
I'm not sure what you mean, we could also say that MS PR (Phil and al.) are using twitter like an overly melodramatic teen girl, overselling their games and products every time they can... their social media non sense approach has become a running gag, it doesn't look serious as they do not deliver, here are some recent blunders:Sony hasn't talked to gamers in years.

Not gonna happen.It’s a good strategy, I don’t think Xbox has to be there day and date with PS5. Let Sony say what they are doing then wreck them. Xbox one X is a beast that can carry Xbox an extra few months and if they announce after Sony they can guarantee games run crappier on PlayStation.
You dont see them in anything in the same form factor as the Surface devices. For example, do Dell xps or Macbook let you change your SSD ? Its just not that easy."slowly going in that direction" when talking about PC laptops as if that was a new thing is kind of sad, most laptops will let you upgrade RAM and drive, or at the very least one of the two, MS kind of broke that expectation when they entered the market with their Surface products, they are really made for clueless people.
It would also be a surprise to everyone who bought an X.The biggest surprise to Sony would be Microsoft eating more of the cost of the console and undercutting them by $100.

Devkit talk isn't really a consumer thing; from a corporate level they are right to focus on their competition, which is Sony.Sony is talking to gamers while MS aim too "surprise Sony". As a gamer, i don't care at all. These are just plastic boxes. My wallet will surprise the one talking to me.

Seems like total BS, there is only so much they could surprise Sony assuming they aim for around a ~$500 price point, unless they plan in selling at a huge loss (which is doubtful). If they sell a $800 box for $500, then yes, a big surprise.
Next year we'll start to know more, it will be interesting.

No, but the 4 years old Acer Switch Alpha did (I would hope Acer refresh their Switch line).You dont see them in anything in the same form factor as the Surface devices. For example, do Dell xps or Macbook let you change your SSD ? Its just not that easy.

Came across this video, discussing a conflicting response from Jason Schreier about Tom Warrens tweet:
I like how you throw the journalist card calling someone dumb and then act like you are very knowledgeable about game development. The third tweet was actually an executive from Blizzard, who was agreeing with him.This sounds stupid and wrong.
"Not all hardware specs matter" This guy is dumb as hell. I'm guessing he's a "tech" journalist who's tech knowledge extends to what bluetooth version the latest airpods use.
