I have a feeling this is xbox playing the media game.

Why would developers spend the last few months waxing poetically about the PS5 if it was underpowered and producing "fake 4K"?
Sony knows how to get devs to shut up.

It has Demon’s SoulsR though. Makes it a must-buy.
Also 1080p is plenty. Most people can’t tell the difference.

But the PS5 seems underpowered.
I think they are hinging on their exclusives. . .which is a very competitive strategy.
I'll own both, though

What passes as journalistic integrity now is pathetic.

While I do not disagree, your statement feels like XBox fans back during x1 vs PS4.

It does appear PS5 is going to be the LCD this round, like the X1 last gen. 1st party will be fine.
I read another article Sony is looking for a timed exclusive on GTA6. Rumored $750 million for 30 days and some exclusive content. Very interesting play on what will be the hottest game for a few years after release. GTA V ranks 3rd all time in sales.

That article just rehashes what was said in OP
ETA: DuskGolem has been banned on ResetEra after admitting he leaked the underpowered rumors just to get the heat off Xbox

This.
Graphics don't really matter much anymore. All games look good. Load times are the biggest complain I have about any game I play.

It was just another article with a different sauce
quote:
noted insider Jeff Grubb hinted that devs are having trouble with the PS5’s variable frequency approach, and warned that gamers may be “disappointed” by some major third-party titles.
Maybe Dusk just whispered it in his ear though.
As far as GTA6

Foxy UK Games started this rumor, claiming that Sony and Rockstar are negotiating a $750 million deal to make GTA 6 a timed exclusive on PlayStation 5. It wouldn’t be a long exclusive period—just 30 days. But that could feel like a lifetime if you are on a different platform desperately waiting to get your hands on the game while your friends on PS5 are enjoying GTA 6.

How likely is this to actually happen? Well, we could definitely see it happening from Sony’s end. The advantage of the timed exclusivity to Sony seem pretty obvious with such a huge game. But would it be worth it to Rockstar? Regarding that, we are not as certain. Gamers are not all too fond of timed exclusives. Nobody likes feeling left out. Rockstar would need to deal with the flak it would get for the decision. And while $750 million is a lot of money, it might not be worth the bad press when the game is already going to make boatloads of revenue.
Playstation topped $1 billion in profits for Q1 2020 for the first time and was 48% of Sony's company profits, so I say they go all in on this.

Bro what. You are the biggest PS simp on this entire board. As well as the biggest Xbox hater. Cyberpunk gonna look 10x better on the Series X. Sorry boys. Don't give a shite about PS's exclusives. PLENTY of other games to play.

you are clearly confusing me with someone else. I get pretty much all multiplayer and 3rd party games on Xbox I have ZERO allegiance to any console. I will continue to buy everything, but I’ll call things how I see them. Xbox was an epic fail this gen, you seem pretty upset over that. No need to be so defensive

I think it's all about the games. Microsoft doesn't have enough of a first party lineup yet to beat Sony in the short term regardless of how powerful the Series X is.

Neither is going to have good 1st party launch titles really, so it will come down some price, BC and 3rd party for the initial buyers.
Sony won the day last time with the GDDR5. 3rd party games looked better and it was the cheaper console to buy. That started the ball rolling for the casual gamer and then the 1st party games began to roll later on and X1 got crushed
Microsoft has really f'd up again on the Halo delay. They really needed it. If the rumors are true of Xbox being cheaper and better graphics they could have started to undo the damage this Gen.
I will probably get the Series X when flight simulator releases on it though.
