I guess both sell, unless you're not a PC gamer.
But PS5 and Anaconda where always going to be 4K,what are you on about? They even started to talk about 8K.
but they both reported that lockheart was dead.
I still don't get how is this "surprising" Sony or catching them off-guard, since a lower specced console is not going to impact their strategy significantly. At most, Sony will try to market their console as the mid-tier compromise between price and power.
I get, but you still don't understand the tweet you even mention.
If Sony goes for high end and 500$, they cant market it as mid tier (and they never would). If MS wants to push higher tier console as hard as possible and price it at 500$ it creates a problem for Sony, especially if its stronger.
Where does the weaker console factor in on that though?
Experts who are analysing hardware from two competing companies have a long history of being sponsored by one of those two companies, and you don't see why people are suspicious of their judgement?
Was obvious from the start, MS not giving Dev Kits hints at a surprise, i don't know why people claiming Sony is more powerful, just wait and see the announcement stop claiming the unknown.
Well if both are pushed for 500$ and losing money, 1440p next gen console for 300$ could be attractive deal.
It depends on Lockhart's architecture and components. With a proper GPU and SSD, it is not out of the realm of possibility that the Lockhart will be given downscaled versions of next gen games. There is no way to know for sure so I totally understand frustration around speculation of what the baseline will be but we DO have a market that shows games can be developed for higher tier products and downscaled to the lower tier (the PC market). Somebody playing GTA V on a trash PC has not changed my experience on my gaming rig. Same goes for Red Dead 2. My experience on PC wasn't effected by somebody trying to play it on the smaller system. Game development has been that way for awhile now in the console market, mainly this gen. It's only logical as the next gen pushes us closer to PC in terms of system components and design that the development process and methods of downscaling COULD follow. We don't know.
Are Xbox One X a 1440p console? And Microsoft say the games will work at the entire Xbox family.
If Lockhart was a 4K machine so is quite possible the strategy. Bit confusing, but can still works.
X is mid gen 4k console refresh that plays same games as Xbox S, at 4x the resolution.
That is just not true. Red Dead 2 for example has minimum requirements of 8GB ram and a GTX 770. This is a six year old (almost seven year old) graphics card.
Breh... you're so full of it, that now... your bullshit detector... went over the roof, and now doesn't detect it anymoreWhen it get's dry people bring Digital Foundry, like it's wise to blow your credibility for a pay check.

Again, but not all games are developed like that. Even first party games like FH4 or GoW were talked about at length as being designed for the highest performing system and downscaled. EA has also said the same goes for Madden development. It is downscaled for the One OG and base PS4 model. Why would this not be the case here? We don't know what the baseline will be so to automatically assume the worst is less of a smash on MS and more of a personal choice until we know more.

Would be lovely to have a more powerful Sony console (since it's what i would buy anyway) gotta be objective here don't act like a fanboy, you have no proof that Sony is more powerful than MS so chill out, wait for the reveal before claiming stuff, i don't know why you say that they are not in Sony's corporate meetings (nobody said that btw) you acting like you are in those meetings hence the rage, nobody cares about you giving them the benefit of doubt, this is business, anything can happen.
Lol back at it again.
it will be a $200 gap. A 12-14 tflops PS5 with a 1-2 tb SSD will not be $399. Sony is targeting $499.I'm not so sure if 4TF Navi would match 6TF Polaris and therefore run xbox x games. This must be a joke or something
And BTW. consoles are cheap anyway, so 100$ less is not a big difference. If someone cant afford spending 100$ more for the next 8 years, then how many 60$ games people like that will buy? Not many.
It is also cheaper to sell digital games.
200$ less should be a good deal for unemployed people I guess, but 200$ more is still not a big deal for me, and I'm not rich by any means. MS should want to make money on people who have money, not people who will not buy games anyway.
And also if you get a fancy new 8K TV the OS and the UI/HUD in games is rendered at native 8K (many Pro games do this, the actual game may be sub-4K but UI and HUD are native 4K). Actual games in 8K, I don't see that happening.
