All it’s missing is five hundred ninety-nine You Ess dollars
It’s the PS3 all over again

The damage control on Cuckera is amazing. They even have a so-called "insider" (read: Sony employee) that replies to everyone talking about how magical the PS5 I/O is.
Remember, 4K doesn't matter. 60 fps doesn't matter. TFs and CUs don't matter. Real life benchmarks don't matter. All that matters is whatever gimmick Sony has decided to market their next console with. So be ready to hear a lot about muh I/O and muh checkerboard upscaling being better than native 4K.
Christopher Diaz
>ahhh Sony pls give me fake 4K and 30 fps you're so good anyways
As a long time Playstation fan, these cocksuckers is why Sony is lazy and greedy these days.
Isaac Turner
They are right. Native 4k is a waste of resources.
Ayden Nelson
supposed insider
>The entire system has a clear design philosophy based around speed. The system is significantly more expensive and complicated to build in pursuit of this vision.
Yup. Sony definitely overspent on their meme SSD and as such, the entire console will come out more expensive than the stronger and more feature-rich SeX. Holy shit what a dud.
Wyatt Torres
4K is a huge amount of resources needed. And the difference isn't that huge between 1440P and 4K. You're talking about huge 20FPS differences between 1440P and 4K. We've already seen the difference between Kingdom Hearts 3 running better on the PS4 Pro compared to the Xbox One X and Resident Evil 3 needing to have its resolution lower. Do you really want to sacrifice better visual fidelity over a slightly cleaner image?
What is bullshit is the I/O. It's just not going to make a huge difference. We didn't see the magical draw distance in Halo Infinite or Gran Tursimo. It'll help streaming, but we haven't seen the mega textures they're talking about using it as memory. That part really is damage control like the Xbox One secret sauce and ESRAM that turned out to be nothing.
Connor Fisher
Don't kid yourself, if the roles were reversed, these corporate drones would raise hell over these resolution differences. These were the same drones that literally took it on themselves to let the whole world know that Xbone games ran at slightly lower res than PS4 games. And now those same people are claiming "fake 4K" is just fine and now resolution is seemingly not as important anymore. These fucks will change narrative overnight so long as it benefits one corporation over the other. It's the equivalent of how Nintenfags on this board defend/attack practices depending on what Nintendo does.
Leo Gomez
I haven't really been keeping up with all the next gen console stuff, what's gonna be so good about the ps5 ssd anyway?
Evan Clark
who cares? sony will win like always and ps5 will become lead platform for development and get best versions of multiplats.
Kevin Gonzalez
dont really give a fuck about the sonyroach cult of turd worlders who probably dont even get xbox live in their shithole
im not getting the weak piece of trash console, simple fuckin as
David Thomas
4K is demanding in PC environment where games run into a bunch of bottlenecks due to lack of GPU-specific optimization. Just look at XboneX. It has a fuck ton of 4K games and only reason they can't hit 60 is due to the Jaguar CPU. So consoles don't really have that problem. If the PS5 is having difficulties hitting 4K and/or 60 fps, it tells me that Sony has made a poor next-generation console. But I agree that if frame rate is not 60, then it's better to lower resolution first on top of useless graphical features such as motion blur, DoF, film grain, ultra shadows and so on.
Cameron Bell
Nothing in particular. They’re making it seem so magical because it will allow games to be launched quicker from being suspended and shorter load times. Everything you’d expect from a SSD in a PC.
Levi Hill
>snoy getting the best version of multiplats on an underpowered heap of garbage
zoom zoom over here obviously doesnt remember RDR1 running at 15fps in 480p lmao
Michael Sullivan
The lead platform for development has been PC all this gen. Just look at FF7R. That game had a working PC version before it had a PS4 version. Only reason we're not seeing it on PC yet is due to Sony bucks. And no way will devs build their games around Sony's SSD as it would fuck up their multiplatform ambitions. Making highly specific hardware is also a curse in this day and age.
Lincoln Ward
yet the xbox pause and play feature with multiple games seems like it blows that out of the water
Carson Sullivan
It's just a bunch of blast processing 64 bit cell processing gimmick crap we hear about every console generation. It's meaningless.
Blake Nelson
Last gen, Sony was really vocal about showing off the PS4 vefore launch. Why? Because they knew they had MS beat. This time, they're all really quiet while we've seen so much of SeX. They're just gonna coast off ignorance and brand power to sell PS5.
Jason Flores
>just look at this one game!
>all pc ever gets is console ports on top of console ports
ok retard
Matthew Hill
With the current price of reaching 1440p, including the cost of a 144hz monitor, I think I'll just stick with 1080p.
Gavin Rodriguez
Dropping such a fucking console on the eve of corona chan world wide economic devastation is economic suicide for sony.
People are gunna be poorer than they have been the last 3 decades, they're gunna need a sure bet. I can see microsoft being the goto next gen, the actual physical design alone is already a hit. The PS5 is in no ones hands yet and already it looks and seems annoying.
Jonathan Richardson
All PC gets is PC games that got stripped down for console release and then officially released on PC.
Juan Parker
Bread and circuses make bank during economic downturns. Avatar was one of the most successful films of all time in 2009. Hollywood was making epic amounts of money during the 1930s as well.
Levi Fisher
If that was the case TotalBiscuit in the grave tonight wouldn't have made a career out of making videos about game settings
Ayden Lopez
Xbox might have a lucky break with the XSS. Supporting the Xbone for longer is a good idea in that environment too.
Lucas Collins
Even the worst of the worst console ports ran better or equal on PC to console version.
People love escapism when they're unemployed and depressed. Corona is the best thing to have happened gaming since Super Mario.
Ian Cruz
It's better to get it out now in the hands of as many people as people and then bank on them buying games. Release it now and then work out how to make it cheaper.
I don't see Microsoft being the go to console. Their main franchise was so badly received and it looked awful. What launch games do they even have?
Sony has Insomniac and Spider-Man coming out. Big franchises like Ratchet and Clank. And if the Silent Hills rumors are true, there you go.
Microsoft has no talent and can't even get their first party largest game out because they're a miserable, large corporation to work for.
Isaiah Harris
You already made this thread. The Cuckbox is going to flop. Cope harder.
Connor Nelson
PS5 won me over with that wack ass design look at it lmao it doesn't look even close to any piece of tech I've ever owned. I know physical is a meme but ill still probably opt for that version "just in case" I need a disc drive for a movie or there are amazing Gamestop deals or whatnot.
James Rivera
I don't mond fake 4k but this thing needs to be cheap as hell.
299 at most
Robert Cooper
Buddy I've been playing games since the good old MS DOS days
If you want to sit here and pretend that the absolute majority of pc gamers dont play on shit rigs that are at this point in time WORSE than the best consoles, Im just gonna laugh at you
This isnt the ps1-ps2 era anymore, if you took the average console gamer and showed him the absolute ass the average pc gamers plays, in all its 720p shadows and AA turned off glory, youd get laughed out of the room
Christopher Hill
Looks like a wi-fi router from 2010, then again they probably didnt have internet 10 years ago wherever it is a monkey like you grew up
Jayden Allen
Hi schizo. Take your meds
Lincoln Sullivan
I don't even care about Xbox: But to deny that MS has made the superior console with better features is downright delusional. Sony has its game divisions that saves its ass every gen. But its bosses and hardware teams are retarded and should've been let go ages ago. I'll get a PS5 down the line anyways because I'm a Gran Turismo addict.
Jason Perez
How come people can't program anymore? Did it get to hard? Are they curing autism so no one can do it?
Levi Thomas
I literally don't give a shit what kind of games poor third-worlders play on their welfare laptops. All I know is that I can with ease get a superior experience on PC than on console. And even save money in the long run. The flexibility of PC and its huge range of niches is probably why it's the dominant platform of 2020.
Nathaniel Gutierrez

Check the steam hardware survey yourself the top cards are all more powerful than the PS4 and most are more powerful than the X1X.
Most console gamers don't own the Pro consoles btw.
