Pretty obvious isn't it. And why do you care, you have zero intention to get an Xbox, you just like the attention I guess

Only a few days until Xbox Series X preorders start and we still don't know how games will look on the worlds most powerful console

Loadgate incoming.
Few small time make big time. With all those seconds saved over the next 7 years, I'm gonna run for president. They see.

If only my penis was as big as my GamerScore!
I feel like we have a much better understanding of what the Series X is than the PS5. Either way, I'm buying both and will see what happens.

Well there is zero chance the games will look or perform worse than the PS5 which is the same price, so of course i'm going to preorder the Series X. I'm more concerned that we haven't seen a single physical PS5 console anywhere at this point, that is just crazy to me. I'm sure things will be fine with the console but i'm thinking there are only two possibilities here. Trouble with the console, or worry that the general population will be put off by its size if they see it before preordering.
This would actually scare me much much more. But games on the hardware itself? Meh.
It’s basically just a PC. Doesn’t really matter.
It’s not like the old consoles anymore.

ms: i have the most horsepower in a slow diesel truck
MS is much more powerful, once you eventually get there

For the hardware ...There's a thing called COVID dude... Are you expecting Sony and MS to come to your house and show you the console in person ? Of course the only thing you'll be seeing are videos of it...
For Sony, they have shown alot of gameplay running on PS5 , not sure about MS, because I do not care about the Xbox Brand personally.

That is.... reasonable rationale, is it not?
I mean, both sides of this console cycle have been unusual (blame COVID, sure, yet there was no mobilization to get the word out better on the games in reaction to conditions; how many games are up for pre-order on either console that have had little more than one trailer to show explain they are?), but even when products like an Apple item did a surprise-launch, there was still a press event where somebody touched the thing live before money in the public exchanged hands. And even the obvious parts of this cycle, like somebody having an actual PS5 console and plugging it in or somebody running a real Series X game on an actual Series X console, none of that has happened in public yet, weirdly.
We're still 2 months away, and at some point this unusual process will level out and I'm confident these fears will be assuaged (I'm not ludicrously saying that two giant corporations with experience shipping console products multiple times over and an invested interest in the long-tail attachments to their console will play some shell game and ship empty boxes,) but there is a benefit to proper process and we're being asked to pay (albeit with cancelable pre-orders) before process is followed.
If you are comfortable with how this is going, or feel confident in these brands that your buy will be everything you imagine, then feel free to do whatever you want with your money. But it's very atypical and IMO not a good thing that so much is not being presented in real, physical, working form before pre-orders are taken.

Not at all, now it's about loading times. If your game starts in 5 seconds instead of 10, that's the biggest thing in gaming history.

Running on a PC without publicly disclosed specs other than it was targeting Series X performance. Sony did that once last showcase but everything after was on the PS5 itself iirc.
It is odd that so close to launch we're not seeing more running on final hardware. Hellblade 2 but that was running iirc 70% of 4K and 60% of 30fps or something, not a final game target at some 40% of 4K30.

don't you hate it when you load a map in a fps on PC, and the game is already technically over?

Nonsense. A third-party needs to be verify how these games run on real hardware. We've seen enough bullshots and trailers that misrepresent a game over the years.
Both Sony and Microsoft need to send their consoles and a stack of games to Digital Foundry with no restrictions on what they can talk about.

They will look just as good as PS5's. Nothing to see here...

And has Sony shown that in ANY of their promotional videos this year? All they've shown are flashy 3D renders that make it look more appealing. For all we know the guy is this pic is only holding a side plate. You can only see it from one side. We've seen some other pics of the side plate so far and that's it. Sorry, this doesn't count.

How did the PS3 3rd party fare compared to 360? I think wanting to see games run on actual hardware is relevant.

I’m sure it’ll be fine, but I’m just as curious as anyone to see something actually next gen running on it.
Xbox is 10 second, PS5 will be 5. If you think its actually going to be 1-2seconds you're nuts.

Where do you see that Series X games load in 12 seconds. Stop spreading garbage.

Op shows no interest in Xbox yet posts another concerned thread. Not knocking the question, but it's not available for preorder yet. MS still have a few days to "leak" some more info.

demon's souls loaded in 0.8 seconds in the video i watched...im a nintendo guy, and i'm legit blown away

id love to see xbox load in .8s, at 12TF, that would be awesome

Yes, as a general rule I agree with that. And Apple and their keynotes are definitely a good example.
Having said that, there's a degree of reasonable doubt. Like, we can reasonably assume that both consoles will actually run games, even without having factual evidence of such thing reviewed by independent sources.

I’m not even sure what he’s doing in this thread trolling about load times. There’s a whole other thread for that if that’s what he wants to keep going on about.

As a PS fan, who cares at this point. Seems the first year is not gonna be insane anyway in either camp.
Unironically the biggest upgrade is the SSD. Fuck loading times so much. I am just tired of them at this point.
Can't wait for that basic next-gen upgrade that will finally deal with that issue.
