There is alot more headroom to be improved in PS5 and I'm sure that Sony's devs will learn to Squeeze more juices out of the PS5 in the future.

Hi boys VG TECH Immortal phenyl rising comparison



conclusion:

PS5 in Performance Mode uses a dynamic resolution with the highest native resolution found being 3840x2160 and the lowest native resolution found being approximately 2275x1280. PS5 in Performance Mode rarely renders at a native resolution of 3840x2160. Xbox Series X in Performance Mode uses a dynamic resolution with the highest native resolution found being 3840x2160 and the lowest native resolution found being 1920x1080. Xbox Series X in Performance Mode rarely renders at a native resolution of 3840x2160. The scene at 0:46 was where the lowest resolution was found and this scene seems to render at a higher average resolution on PS5 in Performance Mode than Xbox Series X in Performance Mode. However, in other scenes the PS5 and Xbox Series X render at a similar resolution in Performance Mode, and in some cases the Xbox Series X can render at a higher resolution than PS5. PS5 and Xbox Series X in Performance Mode use a form of temporal reconstruction to increase the resolution up to 3840x2160 when rendering natively below this resolution. Xbox Series S in Performance Mode uses a dynamic resolution with the highest native resolution found being 1920x1080 and the lowest native resolution found being approximately 1280x720. Xbox Series S in Perforamnce Mode uses a form of temporal reconstruction to increase the resolution up to 1920x1080 when rendering natively below this resolution. The only resolution found on PS5 in Quality Mode was 3840x2160. Xbox Series X in Quality Mode uses a dynamic resolution with the highest native resolution found being 3840x2160 and the lowest native resolution found being approximately 3328x1872. Drops in resolution below 3840x2160 on Xbox Series X in Quality Mode seem to be uncommon.
 
JFC some of you people are sad. Do you really think I sat around and decided to fake credentials and stories for the sake of console warring?

Now kindly piss off. If you have a problem with the information take it up with Gearbox.

It could be the leaker gave you some false information to make him harder to track down. I can't think of anything else to be honest.

Who knows. Judging by how people react on this forum I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case. Video development isn't static, 1000 different things happen behind the scenes. But again for 300th time, I simply asked the questions and gave their answers.

Alright all this talk about insiders, true or not, got me thinking and please don't take that as an offense.
But are you really that fond of Red power Rangers ?
Because I probably missed a lot what happenned in the power rangers universe but I remeber them being ultra cheesy when I was a kid.
Did they improved ?

I mean...yes? I do like the Power Rangers even as an adult but its not something I frequent every day or anything. The only content the IP has that I think everyone can enjoy are the current comic books runs of MMPR and GGPR. Both are fantastic.

Its still an IP that is made for mostly children. Like anything thats been running for 20 years plus it has had its ups and down. The Disney era was absolutely awful but it did improve once it was sold off.

When a new season finishes I will get a key episode watch list and check it out in my free time but I havent seen a full season in a very long time.

I got the helmet on clearance from a buddy who worked at a Barnes and Noble. I think it retailed for like $99 but they got it in after it has been discounted by 80 percent so he held it aside for me. I would not spend $100 on it.

I have to admit I thought it was limited to the serie I watched as a child.Now I understand more then great I never there were comics and new content to the franchise.I realise I may have sounded dismissive please be assured it was not my intention.I just wanted to joke a bit and understand that passion for something that, to me, was limited to a cheesy serie I used to watch as a child.

I didnt take offense of any kind.

Its still going. For a long time they did a new series of rangers every year (for the most part) but recently they decided to stick with the current set of rangers/theme. They even brought back the OG Red Ranger for an episode it was a cool throwback.

The 2017 movie was actually pretty decent as well for new and old fans. Not a home run by any means but even as adult I think it was enjoyable.

The franchise was just sold off again though and there are new plans for the franchise.

There was a movie in 2017? I never thought the saga was still that active.

They started a new movie line/universe that did not connect with anything else in 2017. It did OK numbers but the merch apparently did alright so they were considering a sequel but the franchise was then sold to Hasbro. A new movie is in the works but Hasbro wants it to be in the same universe as their other projects they are starting instead of the movies being their own set of rangers

Well you learn something new everyday and your passion shows there, it feels nice some positivity from time to time.
 
So is this thread staying open until the Tools arrive?

But in all seriousness, I'm glad that the consoles are so close in performance. Back in the OG Xbox and PS2 days I bought every multiplatform game I could on Xbox due to the power difference.

Now that things are more even and often slightly siding with PS, I also have a pretty powerful PC, I don't need to have 2 consoles anymore.

However, I think I will get a Series X when the Backwards Compatibility program starts up again. I want Xbox to make the best BC machine ever with close to 100% of OG Xbox and 360 games on the system.

I hope Playstation changes their stance on Backwards Compatibility. It isn't too late, and it is an amazing feature that can make this generation the absolute best yet.

This video showcase how awesome Rt reflections are, in Spider-Man Remaster. Ray-tracing for PS5 is looking good going forward. And furthermore, this is just the beginning of the generation and launch titles are using the old gen engines. There is alot more headroom to be improved in PS5 and I'm sure that Sony's devs will learn to Squeeze more juices out of the PS5 in the future.

This game and Miles. I switched back n forth between Fidelity and Performance. I had to, lol.

RT looks so good in this game and Miles.

yes, it's amazing. too bad it has to be 30fps. if it could do 60fps with RT, it would be perfect.
 

lol, seriously i know how op mages are later. but maybe I'm getting old, starting as pure mage soul form feels really hard to me. need to farm a lot for mana potions. and be extremely precise in dodging because i cannot equip the new equipment due to stats restrictions. i never tried to start as a mage before. seriously asking for tips here.

Got my PS5 today, but I couldn't spend too much time with it yet.
First impressions:
-it's huge, pics don't do it justice, though I like it, it leaves the impression of it being a beast
-I don't care what others think, this design is by far the best ever for a console, no contest there IMO
-high tech, luxury feel all over the place, the boot up, the configutation, the menu, everything
-played like 10 mins of Astrobot, DualSense is awesome and adds a lot to the nextgen feel and Astrobot is a very cool game, especially it being free
-I'm playing on a 49" XG90 and I didn't expect such a difference in clarity with 4k (I only had base consoles this gen) at this size, but the graphics seemed insanely good, I didn't expect this game to look this good

Well, that's all for now. It might look very fanboyish but if you check my history I have always been criticizing Sony since the September event and I'm platform agnostic, so it's just me being excited. Everything was so lukewarm up until now and I didn't expect myself to be this excited about it.

Look everyone, a Sony fanboy in the making.

Tone it down!

I think its interesting that they said they were going to add more to it but the reality shows something different. It would be cool to know why they decided to downgrade the visuals. Assuming it was their original plan to have better visuals on the XSX.

No it definitely makes a great first impression. It's super sleek and feels premium. Then you play the games and it gets even better.

wait till you play Spiderman with ray tracing and Demon Souls.

Did you start as magician or royalty?

As Royalty you start with the soul arrow spell which is incredibly powerful and will one or two shot low tier enemies.

I've put all my souls into Intellect, Magic, and Vitality equally. Use the Thief ring when you find it so you can attack from max range without pulling aggro from mobs. Since you don't want to get into melee range you need to work your way through levels slowly, peak around every corner (until you've learned all the spawns).

Right now I literally can kill most mobs before they are even in range to see me.

It feels pretty cheap but it's been a great way for me to learn the levels.

My next run through will be melee focused for sure.

What a waste of a fucking resources. There are many people trying to get a hold of a PS5, including me. This type of fucking human trash should let other person have it, instead of wasting it.

Sry for being rant. This video triggered me.

It`s his job, don`t get mad about it.

Videos like that can fetch over a million views and depending on viewer demographics it can tenfold the investment in a brand new PS5.

This guy in particular have a small sized youtube channel focused in shreading things... spending 500 on a PS5 will give him a much better return than if he spent the same amouth on ads, for example.

In the end, it`s just business.

Did you started as "Magician" or "Royalty"? You get a ring that helps a lot for mage as the second option
You can find quickly a sword that scales very well for mage on 4-1 after that it's pretty much roll on

So today I saw another video of someone shredding a PS5.

Does anyone here have access to an X-ray machine that could be used to take a die-shot? I would sacrifice €/$ 10. And if 50 people join, we'll have a PS5 to dismantle!
You mean 50 people need to chip in $50 each in order to buy the replacement off some scalper. ;)

Edit: If PS5 were readily available, I'd sacrifice mine for that 5 min of fame.
