Xbox chief says Project Scarlett ‘will not be out of position on power or price’
Microsoft is ‘all-in’ on the next-gen Xbox
www.theverge.com
“I would say a learning from the Xbox One generation is we will not be out of position on power or price,” says Phil Spencer, Microsoft’s Xbox and gaming chief, in an interview with The Verge. “If you remember the beginning of this generation we were a hundred dollars more expensive and yes, we were less powerful. And we started Project Scarlett with this leadership team in place with a goal of having market success.”
Someone is going to pricematch someone else.

I requested a title change, but could you also summarize the article in the first post?
There are some key points (as per one of my post, just shorten the description so readers get a TL;DR version of sort).

Was only making a joke, didn't know humor was no longer allowed
I chuckled no worries. Not everyone can keep it to simple humor. See the next gen thread as an example. Some crazy console warriors out there.

Well my comment was mostly a joke and I still urge people to not confuse Teraflops with power/performance. I see it on a daily basis.
Otherwise you will eventually see people saying 12 Xbox Series X Teraflops is like 200 Gamecube Teraflops or 800 SNES Teraflops
How is this weird? That means that they have dedicated cores that just do one thing: Ray tracing.
Now ray tracing won’t use any other resources. This is HUGE! And crazy expensive lol

The features tackling latency seems right up my alley, and I also like how they will allow you to quick-resume multiple games. Pretty neat.
What do you mean? It was even beforehand in Sony’s court. Microsoft already showed the console. Sony only showed the logo, which was nothing new. Lol

Depends on the car. I bet some modern cars do have a low amount of Teraflops which is used for Autonomous driving etc.

GitHub data is real 
I think they even said that PS5 is 12 TF and Xbox is 9TF

While they did release a logo, it got more traction and social media awareness than revealing the actual Xbox Series X console lol. Sony has the ability to vhange the narrative, a matter of when is the question.
because a virus is killing people and they are worried for their employees well-being......oh stupid stupid sony...…..

Could mean anything, Could also mean software raytracing that renders on the cpu.

Im wondering if it would be the other way around, if would be too ok.
like that person wouldn’t be banned instantly.

No?

has always stated in the 12 range, but never gave hard numbers.I think they even said that PS5 is 12 TF and Xbox is 9TF
This never happened, it was the other way around.

Can't wait to see DF analysis, as they are in the team who believes in GitHub leak.

No one has ever been banned instantly for a simple console war comment that I can remember. Usually that is reserved for racisim or personal attacks or something. The worst that would happen would be a formal warning or maybe a ban from that thread alone.

You are aware that you are not on ree?
That’s why they say HARDWARE-accelerated. Because they use SOFTWARE. Lol
Anyway, we will see when it will arrive. At least we know now that it’s going to be 12 TF

no as in power output.
compare the power consumption of a 2080ti
then compare it with a car

And there it is.
We can definitely put the "but 2x the X doesn't literally mean 12!" to bed. Always knew he was speaking in terms of Moore's Law with that claim. Plus, they never shut down the 12TF rumors when they were spreading, knowing if it actually wasn't 12 they'd lose a lot of goodwill that was generating.
Now the question I guess is, is it actually "12" or something like 12.x. I'm guessing 12.18 but it's possible it could be more, some rumors were kicking up saying they wanted to push near 13 but that'd be pushing the GPU to the absolute edge of the sweetspot, and it's already a pretty big chip as-is.
So they probably won't reach that xD. But I'm glad someone finally confirmed something officially in terms of at least some of the specs, that is reassuring. I hope this bodes well for Sony and PS5 as well whenever they're finally ready to start talking again.
Funny thing is I wasn't even thinking about that when I just posted xD. I mean, it definitely shows that the Github stuff and the GPU benchmarks are real and pertinent. BUT, the dataminers may not be finished mining the entire database.
I'm still hoping for another Oberon stepping to show up with some more "meat on the bone", as it were. Hopefully within a month's time or April/May at the latest because that's where I honestly think the window of opportunity will probably close for such to pop up, IMHO.
That said I'm ready to accept both systems wherever they land in terms of specifications; ultimately it's always about the games (and smart marketing).
Honestly if it isn't a quantum processor with volumetric space RAM, it's dead to me.

The bolded part is what I like about Xbox ATM and as an upcoming consumer I hope they stay the course.
Not talking about their sales figures as most companies do that when announcing financial results, I'm talking about their messaging in regards to Xbox X/ Series X.
Boldly sharing is rather telling IMO, the curtain has been unveiled and they now know who's is bigger and what's not hence why it's reflected as such in the messaging - confidence.

It will still have an impact on performance, because it uses the same RAM. Raytracing is very RAM-hungry. Wonder how fast their memory setup will be.

So while this is my favorite feature. It’s ruined by always online games that disconnect you.
- Quick Resume: The new Quick Resume feature lets you continue multiple games from a suspended state almost instantly, returning you to where you were and what you were doing, without waiting through long loading screens

Cool. Good for the Xbox fans. I might grab one for a gamepass machine in my living room to compliment my pc in the office.
Yeah. I agree. From Sony we mostly hear about sales there, sales, cancelling this blablabla
love that Xbox tells us more about interesting stufF. Also stuff that are not interesting to only shareholders and investors.

Every code runs on hardware mate. Hardware accelerated can mean anything.
