    doesn't anything that run 120Hz automatically accept 40hz? They just have to make the game flag the PS5 to output @ 120hz I think?

    Not sure if we'd get anywhere past the GPU and RAM for similar specs though.

    Welcome to capitalism, where a healthy dose of inflation is inevitable. You want deflation? Go ask Japan how that went.

    Sony PlayStation 5 Pro

    If we adjust for inflation of past consoles... PS2's $299 in year 2000 is approx $550 today. PS3's $599/499 (60/20GB) is in year 2006 is approx $908/$760 today. PS4's $399 is in year 2013 is approx $530 today. PS4 pro's $399 is in year 2016 is approx $512 today. So pricing 699 is on the high...

    Do you think there will be a mid gen refresh console from Sony and Microsoft?

    The minute they require all games to be perfectly compatible with Windows at launch pretty much made a lot of those custom hardware optional at best.

    Elden Ring [2022-21-01] [PS, XB, PC]

    My current build is Moonveil with magic. Moonveil has a very good ranged skill for trash and bosses (and good scaling with INT), and I'm finding Adula's Moonblade to be the go to magic for bosses and strong enemies (can also be buffed by rani's hat and Ash of War: Royal Knight's Resolve)...

    As long as your PS5 doesn't open access to the games for an "unreasonable" amount of PSN accounts, it's fine. Banned PS5s had like 50 accounts from all over the place so...

    Nope, Console banned from PSN. Probably indefinately. An account ban wouldn't do much to punish the main abuser (which in this case is the PS5 owner). https://mspoweruser.com/sony-permenantly-bans-ps5-ps-plus-collection/ Reads: This PS5 console has been permanently or temporarily forbidden...

    Playstation 5 [PS5] [Release November 12 2020]

    Usually they wouldn't care, but this time it's money (free, full games) on the line so yes. Sharing your account with somebody you don't know is precisely against the TOS. Well, if you don't abuse it it's fine, but it became apparent that a lot of people made money by using their PS5s to give...

    You want to risk both your account and the PS5 owner getting banned? lol

    My confirmation email for the VR adapter actually came after the adapter arrived at my house, just got it yesterday.

    Current Generation Hardware Speculation with a Technical Spin [post GDC 2020] [XBSX, PS5]

    Empirically as long as the data is gathered in an unbiased fashion and careful to not include bias it doesn't matter who did it, even if there was a conflict of interest. In some of these cases other frame analysis websites that had better reputation came to the same conclusion so in this case...

    Digital Foundry Article Technical Discussion [2020]

    The dips certainly look like bugs. Maybe because the way it dropped performance wasn't really logical and then there was proof that PS5 did perfectly fine on that scene in other instances.

    Digital Foundry Article Technical Discussion [2020]

    Occurs in these scenes I really don't see any real "valid" reason for the big dip if both consoles can handle way more chaotic scenes without a hitch. The other dips that are seen in the video are actually accompanied by immediate similar level of chaos that run, well.. fine? also funny how...

    Ya the point was the 90 degree measurement doesn't really have a baseline to compare with. Most of these measurements are done with either a sensor inside, or taken with a infrared gun or something like that. We need them to use the same methodology to measure some rig to make this comparison...
