Curry looks more realistic on Xbox. MJ looks like a plastic action figure on both. DF not critiqueing the ps5 version because they’re scared of sonygaf.

That's not even from the Digital Foundry video dude... just stop with these twitter sources

I wonder if Curry still have that weird hair effect on XSX tho. Like it wasnt finished being filled in. I saw it in an old comparison pic.
 
😂 And even in his images is just a comparison of start/middle of the game. Where XSX is showing more sweat just because the player is more tired at that point. They can even console warrior right.
They don’t sweat as much on ps5, both footage are from Curry pregame. MJ nearly identical scene.

Do you remember every thread u were going on about ps5 downclocking and spreading fud with your lack of knowledge on the matter? Karma is a bitch . Enjoy it❤🤷‍♂️

Well i admit i am caught off guard at how much delayed MS devtools are than i expected. I always communicated cautiously about SX/SS launch games based what we have heard about their development run up.

Likewise, im blown away at how perfect sony achieved their goals in making ps5 their fastest, easiest development console ever.

I guess both ends going further than expectations, result in what we are seeing with launch games now. 🤷‍♀️

Cliche as it will sound, we just gotta wait for wave 2 games, unfortunate that MS systems are hit with delays, hitches in stability and unable to show it power properly.

First win for PS5, no need for VRR since the framerate seems to be absolutely rock solid. Congrats.

In a parallel universe:

It's impressive that the Series X was able to achieve almost parity with the PS5. Didn't expect that given all the power marketing and teraflops difference Sony boasted about all year. Guess Phil was right, teraflops don't matter.
“Some of the discrepancies can be addressed with patches, but developers explain to The Verge that the Xbox Series X developer environment is contributing to uneven performances. Apparently, PS5 dev kits were being delivered long before Xbox Series X dev kits, which meant that developers had far less time to work with Microsoft’s hardware and optimize their games. This should hopefully balance out in the weeks and months to come.”

It’s okay to accept science and math. TFLOPS=Power

Yep... What I said yesterday.
Yep, there's no need for VRR when the PS5's GPU is more powerful and capable than Xbox in keeping its frame-rate consistent, not just for 1%, but for everyone:messenger_winking_tongue:. That said, Sony has officially said VRR is coming pretty soon.

Rolling my eyes at the immature chest beating, but I have to say it’s pretty remarkable how consistently the PS5 has emerged in the lead at this early stage.

I bought into what I honestly thought would be the weaker system, just as an extra for exclusives, and somehow ended up with the actual beast. I really have to credit Mark Cerny and his staff for a very intelligent, unconventional design that accomplishes more with less, to the point where it’s simultaneously the cheapest and best performing next-gen system.

That said, the differences are typically minuscule. Series X owners shouldn’t be disheartened over anything but the expectations of blowing out the competition not happening, and that’s not the biggest deal in the end. It’s a gorgeous game on both.

Props to 2K too, for doing right by the players with a true next-gen game. I get the feeling that the limited scope of an NBA game may help? You can certainly see that the non-court parts are a big step back. But nonetheless.
Nah they have all the merit, the ufc games are even more limited in scope and ea still manage to do the shittiest job with that brand.
