My prediction is 32GB of unified RAM 🐏 😁 for the PS6, not 32GB VRAM since thats not been a thing on consoles for a while(Xbox 360 standardized unified memory so its not going to change). And no it wont be similar to the Xbox One X's 12GB bump because that was a midgen refresh. There wasnt a...

lmao because I have spoken so authoritatively about it being the case, it wont be a good look if it doesnt turn out to be true. There's a chance they wont double the physical RAM but thats what I think is technically most likely and financially most sound for the aforementioned reasons I posted...

lmao if Sony doesnt double the amount of RAM going from PS5 to PS6 I'm cooked.

Next gen architecture is about efficiently meeting demands of future workloads not "doing more with less". Sony doesnt base console specs on consumer PC averages, it makes forward looking bets 100% based on developer needs over a 7-8 year console cycle. Respectfully what you've proposed wouldnt...

1.) You're missing my point again and focusing on this super Gamepass user that hasnt provided the necessary growth for Xbox. To the point they had to put their games onto Playstation. 2.) Playstation offers great deals on game purchases as well as now has a comparable subscription service to...

This is what I'm saying!!

You bring up valid arguments, and you're right wrt how strong the BC is on Xbox, thats a strong point that Sony and Nintendo dont have at the moment. But how will that work on an Xbox branded OEM device like the upcoming ASUS Xbox handheld? Will all your previous titles purchased through Xbox be...

I still had to buy games even when I was on Gamepass!! Not to say there wasnt a ton of good titles, but now Playstation's subscription services offer similar titles as well you get all the new Xbox AAA titles and the exclusive Playstation titles. There's a considerable amount of Xbox only...

I was talking about certainty of direction,I included Valve because of their overall gaming offering including the Steam Deck which is a hybrid style device taking a lot of what works on consoles and PCs into one box.Yes Xbox has committed to bringing new hardware next gen, like they committed...

Yeah, no one will really cares, people will gravitate to where they think they are getting the best experience Very simple, because of certainty. The direction of Playstation, Valve, Nintendo is quite certain. With Xbox you dont even know what an Xbox really is anymore. It could be the Smart...

This is quite hard to do actually, the only company to come close to this I think is Valve with the SteamDeck but you can see how they lean heavily towards a closed model to pull off something similar to this If we're being very very honest, this even the hardest part. Console form factor at...

Yeah thats why I think a considerable amount of only Xbox consumers will be moving to Sony next gen. I am currently one of them. I dont see the need to get a PS5 or a PS5 pro, unless they get really small and portable or devs make games markedly better on the PS5 pro like GTA 6. So I'll likely...

You could be onto something just not sure its technically in vogue especially on a portable device. In such a case you dont even need to a disc if its just a key, it could be a digital key otherwise discs dont provide the disk throughput needed for modern games. You need some sort of flash...

discs?? on a portable device? hmm

Yes even when you factor in current temporary economic headwinds it doesnt make sense to produce a PS6 with less than 32GB of memory. You're comparing it to a 4060 working on current gen requirements for a game primarily designed for the 8th gen. For a 10th gen system thats supposed to last...
