Lockheart (if it exists) is exactly the bold move they need to take on Sony. People talked shit about the Xbox 360 sticking with DVD but it was one of the smartest moves they made that helped them with pricing and thus helped with reaching more consumers that generation. Having a console that sticks to 1080p (which the vast majority of consumers own) I feel would have a similar impact if priced $100+ less than the other consoles. Tackle the high end with Scarlett. Same games on both. Win win.

Not to mention, most parents buy their kids consoles and will buy them whatever makes sense for their budget. I'd buy myself a $500 console, I'll buy my kids a $300 console. If I really don't want to spend money, I'll buy them the cloud console. My son was playing Hello Neighbor via xCloud Preview on is Kindle Fire the other day, he had a blast. Resolution doesn't matter to him right now, why spend more?

lockhart is just anaconda without the discdrive and 100dollars cheaper.

In regards to third party, the rumor was MS was told by third parties that Lockheart over complicates things and is a hassle to develop for with new consoles. The VR comment was another line of thought, not sure why you combined it.

And having to optimize for millions of pc configurations isnt? Ive never understood this argument.

And I will say this until i am old and gray....

any reason to go 12core cpu other than bragging rights?

Exactly this. Third parties are known to have to adjust their games on a system by system basis period it’s not like missing one DEF kit is going to totally screw them for next generation especially when it’s still a year away. Let’s also not forget that a lot of these games that are “Held back” also work on switch and somehow stay the same size with the same scope. The only thing that changes is texture resolution, model resolution, Screen resolution, Draw distance, FPS, and LOD quality.

Xbox One is $299, Xbox One SAD is $249. You expect MS to lose $175 per console with Lockhart?

Nah

 

[Insane Metal]

lockhart is just anaconda without the discdrive and 30 dollars cheaper.

Fixed

 

[TeamGhobad]

Fixed

100dollars is a good incentive. and players think they are getting a good deal but in reality MS makes a lot more money off them cause every game purchase will go through their system. its a a genius tactic.

 

[FrostyJ93]

Lockhart will be same CPU and SSD but half the GPU power, no disc drive and maybe less ram.

Just saw this on YouTube.

PS3 will have a OS and play PS1 and 2 games BC. MS is the real competitor. FF7 could have been on Saturn instead of PSX.

Wait...the PS5 is just the PS3? That mean the Scarlet's just the 360?

We finally did it. The consoles got so powerful, they've reversed time. We didit !!

 

[DemonCleaner]

nah not really. maybe if they found a way to move raytracing intersection calculation on the cpu side simultaneous to doing other GPU work, but i guess that would be prohibited by bandwidth between the two.

I'm calling it now, PSErebus is a fraud. I doubt there will be any news of PS5 today.

Let's wait until evening time then. If by then complete BC with every past generation is not announced, the guy is a fake.

If RDNA2 GPU's have Ray-Tracing, both consoles would have it.

 

[Mr.XtremeGamer]

If RDNA2 GPU's have Ray-Tracing, both consoles would have it.

Of course they will. Hardware based ray tracing is an RDNA 2 exclusive feature. And since both consoles use hardware ray tracing, they'll most certainly inherit features from it, but definitely not the whole architecture.

it's going to be whole rdna 2.0 and on top of that secret souce there's no sense in releasing new console in late 2020 with 1 and half year old arch, same thing happend with ps4 it had never gcn which was only available on ps4 then soon followed amd pc cards.
add to this 7nm euv and we have 10+ tflops consoles with 200w -220w dsp.
