I like the hype for both consoles I just don't think it needs to a situation like TF #'s where we're worried about who is creating more hype lol.I loved the PS2 hype and those awesome tech demos
It was an exciting time to be a young gamer eager to get access to next gen super dubber graphics.....I think I came when I saw TTT and MGS2 for the first time

Those times are gone, back then we went from PS1 to PS2 graphics and all, basically from a pixelated mess to something like MGS2. Now the most hyped thing is the ssd disk.
Tekken Tag Tournament. I still have the original disc, and even the demo, along with that launch PS2 from okt 2000.
Oh ok. Couldn't really get into TTT. I played Tekken 3 so much I was burnt out same as Tony Hawk 2 that I played so much I never played another
PS2 version of Tekken Tag Tournament
Well, they take GPU resources for that, that's no better. You remember the insiders talking about GPU decompression ?
Was thinking but yes your right there was the arcade version too, and it was better, technically?
You think this is referring to the GPU?
A dedicated silicon block does not sound like the GPU.
The PS2 version was miles ahead than the arcade version. If there was one game that could convince the CG-like graphics at the time it was this. I still believe that there is no other PS2 game with such convincing materials.
Thanks, I had missed it. Seems they have indeed dedicated silicon for this. My bad.
I doubt the twitter admin has a clue about the system specs, it doesn't mean he is hinting it will be 9TF.
They don't have use GPU but they use ASICs hardware decompressor the same for Sony. This insider told too than Xbox Series X GPU is RDNA1.
Agree but I thought that was a very funny and clever response.
Here is my clock math for fun. 20-13 clocks = 7, X 9 (the time on the clock) = 63, / 5 (for PS5 obviously) is 12.6TFS

Ah thought the naomi2 version was better. True though, i loved tag, even if Tekken 5 had a better art style. Moonlit wilderness was nice, and then the soundtrack of it.
It's his/her job, to gain attention, its social media.
There was no Naomi2 version of Tekken. The arcade one was on System 12
I think most people would think it a waste of time to drop individual specification values over an extended period. For developers not in the know, it would just leave them waiting until any bottlenecks or quirks show up before they can plan, and for other observers there's not really much value in a single number robbed of much of its context. It would seem like a product spec table is an example of something that is greater than the sum of its parts.
What other approach would it take, anyway?
PS5 advent calendar: for each day, reveal one number or letter that goes to an architectural value?
Mark Cerny goes on the livestream wearing an outfit of balloons, and every one he pops drops a bit of technical trivia?
"We'll see how much you want to know how much compute power there is," he says as he spirals in towards a critical remainder of his covering.
I hope to hear more about things that make the architecture more approachable to developers or provide infrastructure for the platform, much like the APIs and in-built hardware Microsoft disclosed for storage, data residency, latency, and variable refresh rate.
There are signs that there was investment into backwards compatibility and integration between the hardware and OS for that purpose, and there could be other similar mechanisms since there's supposedly a custom storage subsystem that can give developers more control, and various disclosures or patents from AMD or Sony that might provide some services like the Xbox reveal touched on.
I think those other engineering efforts outside of headline specs could be very important, since Sony went with the more approachable platform in the current gen and the platform now needs to handle a complex transition for hardware and storage. I would say the risk is higher, depending on how in-house some of these efforts are. Sony was not entirely successful with its firmware and platform engineering with the PS4, and I think things could have been somewhat different if its competition's efforts weren't divided into so many speculative non-core directions or implementing emergency changes to the whole architecture ahead of launch.
I'd like to see how broad and deep the engineering effort goes for both of the upcoming platforms.
9.2 PF confirmed...All of a sudden, teraflops be damned. While i do agree tf arent all that important though
