[MEDIA] They introduced this today; not specifically Series X-related but I think it's a step towards some type of VR/AR support to be introduced...
Yeah the end plug on thumb drives is definitely a potential concern for moving things into that direction for physical delivery, but I think...
No, there will definitely be a PS6 and Xbox Next in seven or so years' time. Streaming, even the best setups like Stadia and Xcloud (or even with...
This has been my perspective on this particular discussion, and you can actually even find Gen 3 USB sticks of similar bandwidth and capacities...
I keep forgetting VC were purchased by Sega before Dreamcast. In retrospect tho I honestly wonder if it was the smartest decision; it's arguable...
Yeah but the thing is they were reaching equilibrium pre-COVID with digital gaining and disc waning. So factors outside of the pandemic were...
Damn the DC version of that does look good! On another note I'm quite impressed with Sega's post-Dreamcast 6th-gen output considering they had...
That's a good point; wonder if the could consider doing a disc drive peripheral then for those markets, especially if they introduce the system a...
Yeah, I remember the "premium cars" fiasco of GT5, jeez that was not a good decision in retrospect. Would've been better to just feature the...
This just reminded me how good SC and especially DOA2 looked on the system. That Atomiwise game looks good too, particularly for its time, but it...
True words, but simpler times. Would love those times to come back. All the more reason I'm looking forward to AI programming models to become...
I won't be surprised if either Sony or Microsoft decide to skip disc support altogether for 10th gen tbh; they'll watch the trend for digital...
I'm already surprised GT7's been delayed, and have expected Ragnarok wouldn't make it in 2021, but if Horizon gets delayed too, that's gonna hit...
That certainly seems to open up the spectrum of where designs can go for 10th-gen, then x3. I still don't know if adding in NVRAM would...
I get what you're saying TBH, but the only reason I'm thinking the TF will come within the ranges I mentioned earlier is because I took a look at...
I think that's pretty fair tbh; maybe with their growing purpose of unifying Xbox designs for other markets like the cloud, Microsoft could be...
Actually I don't think the new games are leveraging most Series X or PS5 features at all. We know most Series games aren't using DirectStorage,...
ML is going to be very important for AI, arguably in same way RT can aid in AI calculations, but I think ML will play a much bigger role out of...
Intel as well, if they want to ensure DX12U compliance with at least their gaming-orientated GPUs.
It's mostly semantics these days; use of phrasing like 'fully software' doesn't adhere strictly to the traditional definition as it may've in the...
That's...actually a good point. With scalpers buying these systems in large bulks, that's a decent chunk of lost additional revenue because these...
It's been a sh*tshow, to put it mildly xD The other benefit with that power consumption savings would be shrinking down the package sizing,...
Ah okay, so the 80 TF was for the 256 core card, makes sense. The 6900 XT is around 23 TF of raw performance; I think actual raw TF perf of...
But the thing is the 780 Ti came out in 2013; a system like the Series X is a bit over 2x its performance in raw TF numbers but it took seven...
Just did a quick look; 780 Ti was the top-line GPU for 2013 with 5.35 TF and 3 GB of memory, 336 GB/s bandwidth. In terms of pure TF, PS4 Pro 3...
I mean, I agree with us having photorealistic graphics in many games 10th gen, but exactly how much processing power do consoles need to achieve...
Does the Forza Horizon 4 update on Series X and S use VRS? Can't remember specifically what DF said in their video for it.
Also quick: I think guys like MLID, RGT etc. need to keep in mind that, them speculating on what might've been in PS5 was never really the issue....
Well, MLID is finally addressing the SOC images; still listening. Can tell he's flustered and I'm finding it both very funny and also empathetic,...
I mean that's what I'm assuming is the case but I had to make absolutely sure. For example, just going from what I mentioned earlier there's no...
That'd definitely be a waste of CUs, so maybe that makes Cerny's hypothetical example kind of odd. If they ever seriously considered a 48 CU...
Think it might be interesting anyway if just to see what specific DRAM they are using for the cache. Actually, would also be interesting if they...
Hmm, I dunno if it'll be an 8x growth for GPU in terms of raw numbers. Where would they even find the memory to feed that type of monster, and at...
Well that's the thing; the game devs wouldn't be programming the FPGA components (I want to use components here because I'm thinking more along...
Clarifies a lot. I think I can relay some of this to a DSP and get the general idea behind the FADD, so it would sound like a pretty necessary...
Guess we need an xray of the power supply now, too :S I think they should be spared of that, but then again it is Youtube :p How big would...
Space X's next project. Will it fly? Find out in five years! Exactly. Some of these people just got drunk on exoticism because, to be fair,...
I think at the very least, this might take off the table all the other explanations that had to rely on phantom tech customizations not already...
That's highly surprising given a couple of certain Youtubers kept hammering home about a unified L3$ xD. Same with Infinity Cache. Guess we can...
Actually, weren't the SSD rumors among the earliest rumors for PS5? I remember rumors on their SSD as far back as middle of 2019. FWIW, after...
This is kind of a controversial topic but I guess if I can add two quick cents: yeah technically speaking countries like the U.S and China are...
They corrected themselves in another post and read in error. Suspected as such.
Ah man, Omega Boost is legit. One of the smoothest games of that gen, hands down. I get mad sometimes that Polyphony's never revisited the IP;...
Speaking of Sony and them hopefully expanding on their creative output, I hope they return to some of the AA focus they had during the PS3 and...
What'd I miss? A lot, apparently xD Welp, time to do some reading to catch up....
Quite interesting, isn't it ;)? Personally, given this game is a relatively quick port by a small porting team, I think calling some of the...
There's a lot of truth here but at the same time, this game's a bit of a quick port by a small team to churn out some extra revenue and profit on...
Congratulations to NXG! So he does confirm PS5’s smaller game install size is due to Oodle compression. Nice! If it is due to Oodle compression,...
So uh, this isn't really related to the Control discussion but, came across a curious post on Era with someone saying the PS5 has one TMU per CU...
Ah-ha! Take THAT, King Thrash Gaming!!! Seriously, some of the speculation on this stuff was just getting ridiculous. On some level, I admire...
