Where did you get the 50% larger volume?So what did you end up with?

I think Mr Battaglia’s personal allegiances has been highlighted many times by now.
I just find it hard to care at this stage.
I mean, there is a point there, but seems way too salty in how it's written. "Uninteresting" I'd definitely disagree on, though it might be different for people with technical expertise, especially since they got a rather good look at the Xbox SeX from my impression of the video. However, both consoles should at this point be available to various third parties (like DF) to check them out without restrictions in order to give the consumers a better idea of the hardware. It certainly spells a bit lack of confidence from Sony's side that they've been rather restrictive, at least by my own impression.
Once more for the road...
So no reviews of launch games then until they are out since reviewers are not entitled to hardware to do reviews before launch. This is silly argument to defend Sony acting like secret squirrels for no reason.No they should NOT! That's called entitlement. Buy the darn thing when it comes out and do 24 hours a day worth of content on it if you'd like. Consumers DO NOT have to buy the PS5 on launch day. Nobody is entitled to get free hardware. That's always up to the creator of said hardware.

See my other reply.
I don't see anyone compare volume between the two consoles. There are tons of articles directly comparing the height, width and length of both consoles which is why I'm curious to know where you got the 50% bigger volume from.
PS5 is 390mm × 104mm × 260mm*** 10,545.6cm
XSX is 301mm x 151mm x 151mm 6,863.1cm

Do you have any proof that DF gave a dishonest review purely because they got hardware or software early? I hope reviewers continue to get early looks because it makes it easier to make future purchasing decisions. If DF doesn't do a PS5 video when it comes out perhaps some of you guys might have a point.If all the game reviews came out without any reviewer getting special treatment and games for free with strings attached you would get a lot more honest and useful reviews.

ve always liked their videos where they run casual commentary over footage, particularly when John leads the way.

I don't think normal gamers care about DRAM-Less SSDs. I think its more for fanboy forum wars where you can hold a bullet point over fans of other consoles. I'd rather have a hands-on which gives SOME info over some sort of principled stand where you get nothing at all until the console comes out. We don't know what the MS NDA said. It is pure speculation that reviewers were told they couldn't say anything bad about the console. If that was true how did all that stuff about the console over-heating and a return to the early 360 days come from? Alex saying he wasn't interested in a Sony PS5 teardown doesn't show any bias. He clearly he said he was more interested in graphics and games and low and behold he did a video on Spiderman. In the end this is the path Sony chose. Don't get upset with DF or any other publication because they chose to not cover things Sony denied info on.My statement is more about access journalism than just DF.
Either being threatened to be the lone publication out without early access to content and HW/losing your unique selling point (early content review and analysis) or having NDA’s stating you cannot present the product under a bad light does YOU a disservice. You are being marketed to, how is it easier for you to make purchasing decisions or political decisions based purely on that.
Leadbetter did not get a working unit to disassemble in his labs and out under the microscope, he got flown over to see and touch the HW in a MS controlled environment. Why did not he wait to do one now with a working unit? Why is he not doing more and disassembling the drive to out the DRAM-less SSD rumour to rest?
Also, they made plenty of analysis based on videos and presentations and reaction videos in the past as well as said it would be important/cannot wait for Sony to show its cooling solution and the Cerny promised teardown... and now it is uninteresting.
Huh? What does that mean?PS5 is 54% larger
XSX is 34% smaller.
Funny how you already knew that since that quote of mine is in response to you.
I don't think normal gamers care about DRAM-Less SSDs.
The new Dirt gameplay running on XSX should be much more interesting, give the analyse to Alex...
they'd only be commenting on what we can all see with our own eyes.
Well, what are you getting for volume(bounding box) of the PS5 compared to the XSX?
As you stated earlier, you read it in an article, so shouldn't you start by providing/sharing that with everyone first?

So what did you end up with?
Videos are edited to ensure that viewers see only what the video maker want them to see. It would be foolish for a site that specialises in tech to report second-hand info about any console based on such a manufacturer's video.Our eyes and their eyes are not supposed to be the same when it comes to examining tech. They’re experts at analyzing video game consoles. They should find any new info about the most anticipated game technology being released this year interesting. You missed things that they would not have and could have examined.

DF make a living from doing this kind of thing themselves.
you can’t have it both ways. Either it’s uninteresting or it’s their business to analyze. Having it in their hands has nothing to do with it and there was enough shown to comment on if they wanted that wasnt “edited out” They also had the opportunity to say “we’re going to wait to do our own” either way...it’s interesting. You mention them making a living doing videos, so, they had an opportunity for clicks now AND later when they do their own. That’s a lotta eating right there.
no you're reversing the situationThey didn't get an early PS5, so they're having a temper tantrum, so fucking pathetic.
I don't care whether they speak about it or not, they lost all credibility with that Halo Infinite light bullshit breakdown. Their reasoning for not doing so just makes no sense.no you're reversing the situation
they are not speaking about ps5 quick enought so psfan make a tantrum and double down on it because they don't like the response when pushing for it.
ok but losing credibility to your eyes is not a big loss imo.I don't care whether they speak about it or not, they lost all credibility with that Halo Infinite light bullshit breakdown. Their reasoning for not doing so just makes no sense.

Dirt 5 is 60pfs on the current system and 120 on the next gen. There is not big surprise but the big surprise is that yakuza will only run at 1440p on xbox one series x.

He absolutely is and back in March/April he was even trying to push the narrative about PS5 not being able to sustain peak clock on CPU and GPU at the same time.
He also made comments about how there was nothing particularly wrong with the Halo Infinite showcase....
He is biased. It's not an insult or anything, everyone has preferences. He has them and are certainly not towards Playstation.
Sony's video was very informative and interesting, it gave infos about the cooling system (which was the key issue that needed a teardown video in first place), it gave infos about where the SSD bay is, how to access it, about the dust traps to clean the system more easily.
Calling that uninteresting just because Sony is handling the whole marketing by themselves (and successfully based on views and likes metrics) and didn't give any exclusive to them or other gaming websites is obviously wrong and ridicolous.

It seems you're just very keen to be offended by DF's perfectly reasonable decision and are hoping to twist it into yet another 'DF is biased' narrative.
You'll find plenty of supporters here, so have fun with that. You should look up Qanon, you might like that too.
Where this from?
The media will spin as much as they want. They are upset because sony doesnt do this or that but the way I look at it, sony is the champ, they do things on their time and only fight when its a prize fight. Much like Mayweather says, sony is the "A" side. They get to dictate things.Some of yall better hope this is incorrect. Because it'll question everything the media has been saying about Sony's marketing so far about the PS5.
I don't see why Digital Foundry has to upload content you decide, otherwise it's "videos nobody cares about" and they are paid Microsoft shills.
I'm sure if Sony had sent a PS5 to DF, or even invited them to test one, you'd have just as many videos as about the Xbox Series X - which they actually have. Instead Sony prioritized the opinion of this guy;
If all the game reviews came out without any reviewer getting special treatment and games for free with strings attached you would get a lot more honest and useful reviews.
8 million views later, how “uninteresting”.
Alex is the bottom of barrel slack jawed yokel of DF.
Not to mention all the pop up YTers that done videos on the teardown and ended up with views in the hundred of thousands.
He sounds offended Jimbo did not single DF out for a console, and i am glad Jimbo did this.
