From what I understand they want to undercut MS.

PS5 is going to be $399, PS5 Pro and Xbox One X at $499.


LOL those may or may not be right, but there is definitely nothing official out there yet.

I mean you can close shite out if it bogs performance. But if it doesn't, it is a significant bonus to a guy like me who plays different shite constantly


I am going to assume that you will need to be connected to the internet in order to take advantage of this feature since the "suspended" game could be offloaded to XCloud in order to free up physical hardware then when you want to switch then the "state" would be transferred back to the console and on physical hardware.

Not sure what this all means exactly but it seems very expensive

Who knows?

Maybe it has a specific architecture that makes for a redundant system designed specifically for a multitasking offload?

I dunno.

Let me get out my shocked face

Microsoft should really just frick with Sony since they have the capital and undercut them. Release the price, let Sony do their thing and then come back with nah, just kidding.

Sony has to be aware they are potentially losing market share by the day the longer they stay silent.

The Xbox Series X is sounding too good to be true.

The PlayStation 5, just sounds like more of the same.

Isn't one of the PS5's big things is that it's supposed to have ray tracing? Also I just want for both of these consoles to get revealed so the shite storms can really begin

It will be, it is what Sony does. They do not really innovate outside of the games (which are great).

PS4 design team back in the day
Step 1 - Figure out what Microsoft is doing and make it a little more powerful

Step 2 - Wait for Microsoft to release price and come in under at a loss per unit.

Step 3 - Get in bed with Gamestop to talk about the evils of digital downloads and how disk lives matter.

After that they cemented their place with exclusives.

I'm making fun of the marketing spin.

Evidently the X Box One X also has a 12 TF spec so no upgrade there

ETA - oops that was a Series X spec not One X
