DF Direct: PlayStation 5/ Xbox Series X Dual Unboxing + Size Comparison + Reaction
- Thread starter Theorry

There is diminishing returns though. Between 30 and 60 sure but if you can hit 60 on console with acceptable res there's something to that.
Wow! Already love the design but this makes it even better
Yeah I agree, looks really nice!
Air straight in and out front to back. The 'collar' means you should be ok with limited vertical space as long as you have an open back. I think you'd want some space to the right as well to allow air in the 'top' but a few cm should be enough
Yeah I agree, looks really nice!
I would buy that dang thing so fast, just you watch!
On a side note - does anyone have experience using decals on their console hardware - something like the product Dbrand sell, for instance?
Has it been a good result? Any regrets? Are you going to do it again this generation?
Only a couple games ever stressed my One X. Primarily it was RDR2, that game was the noisiest.
PCs tend to use keyboard/mouse. It's very unclear whether this would be useful on a mouse (they are really sensitive, and the buttons aren't analog). But new VR controllers are certain to try to integrate this.
For Xbox, it seems complicated.
- I think the XB controller is around the same weight/size as the Dual Sense already, this functionality would probably make it heavier/bigger. (moving to an integrated battery would probably help etc?)
- MS have focused heavily on input lag reduction, this system may have issues shovelling a ton of haptic information from the console to the controllers.
- it might be somewhat incompatible with controllers/APIs that support impulse triggers.
- replacing a controller SKU 'mid-generation' has the obvious issues. (patchy game support, supply chain mess etc).
Certainly a future xbox controller could add this feature - but I'm not at all sure that it will.
Via patent applications, MS was researching similar tech, re. the triggers anyway. I think it's mostly a business decision as to whether and when they adopt them in the product.
I didn't know this, that is good news. The DF Dualsense impressions have me really excited to try it out one of the days. If it's as good as they say, and I can mostly believe it, I really hope this tech become standard.
SSD speed differences in PS5's favour wouldn't be "surprising" in my opinion, but expected. XSX matching or exceeding it would be extremely surprising, for example.
IIRC, PS5 embargos ends november 6th and xsx ends november 5th
I'm more focused on shooters, didn't even let my mind register a fighter because i would be using arcade sticks
I wonder when they (and other places) are allowed talk about Series S stuff?
Not gonna lie, it's not exactly filling me with confidence there's been radio silence lol
Is there even an embargo on Series S? My guess is that most aren't just interested in it, the social media views for S is a lot smaller compared to X and especially PS5
There is an S embargo but details are missing. I think we will hear a lot more next days, as well as we hear more about PS5. It's understandable that MS wanted to highlight the X in the beginning, of course.
Those are the only two things I think would qualify as surprising considering the wink wink nudge nudge context in which they brought it up. It was book-ended by saying how they can't talk about it yet, and how that's all they can really say for now. It makes no sense that it's related to some feature in Astro Bot demo. Context matters.
I noticed John also called the PS5 "that PS quintuple" in his DualSense video.
Yup, he even remind Richard that the cdi exists, and is in fact bigger, than a Ps5 :)
When that next gen hype hits you
Low key best next gin gif so far! Would love this to get adopted as a "i'm slightly confused but don't care" meme
Guys, last few tweets of this guys are GOLD.
Basically, PS5 is a genius design. And it confirms what Matt Hargett has been saying.
Sony's RDNA 2 customization is huge.
Mind you, he's a game developer with an actual PS5 dev kit.

LOL I know right?
But maybe all of the people trully involved are a little bit like that. "Crush the competition!" LOL
The point is if he's not lying, then the console has some beautiful sauce inside, which aligns with some patents as well.
Richard just savaging the PS5 box was so funny to me after watching so many delicate unboxings.
When has sounding like a fan boy stopped anyone on ERA from taking something seriously? Cmon now lol.
It's not that serious....
I wouldnt call the top surprising. If anything the opposite would be.
The bottom would definitely be surprising.
welp, I never imagined a console war fueled apocalypse, when will the nukes drop? :D
Sounds good but I'm finding this harder and harder to believe as times goes on. MS are pretty much able to dictate how game development is handled due to their involvement in developing architectures and systems that gpu/cpu makers will have to utilize. And unless they make the tools to get that done hard to get used to, devs will benefit from a unified system for xbox/pc by reducing their work, somewhat. Give it time and we'll probably see things getting harder and harder for anyone working outside those walls.
(need coffee)
The problem becomes how much effort will be put into games where you don't know how many have one of these controllers. On the PS5 as a developer you know every customer have one and can literally build games around it if you want with full confidence while if it's a late option you really can't look at it the same way.
I dont think Sony needs xbox and PC to have anything adopted. They sell millions of consoles every year on their own to have this feature be adopted. Especially since we have had an Activision dev here comment that it is super easy to implement.
What would really determine support is not xbox or PC users but if Playstation users actively clamour for it. If you start seeing a pattern of people asking for dual sense support after every third party announcement it will become standardized. No one asked about touchpad support since it had minimal impact to actual gameplay. I dont think that will be the case with this given how gushing the praise has been.
I'm convinced they got the ps3 and ps2 BC to work. I don't care if they claim it's not there, it's probably there. Only because i can't picture anything else that can make that much of a difference between the consoles worth the wink wink
The console only needs room around the back, top and front, so this placement would be perfectly fine.
Yeah this is a key point, its about knowing everyone has one of these playing your ps5 games so you could make it a key part of your game however knowing that a platform might have some people with or without the controller its going to be a different beast. Although saying that the only example I can think of is the analogue sticks on ps1, they seemed to receive good support so maybe it could be done? Either way I have more faith in it being implemented in ps5 games than series x if they did release a controller in the future.
Jim Ryan said something similar earlier this year. In that point we already knew the improvements on the controller, 3D Audio and some info about the SSD so I wonder what Ryan was referring to. It's difficult to think that he was talking about nuts & bolts stuff (I/O, cooling solution etc.) that was revealed later this year. Those seems to be aspects that only hardcore fanbase are enthusiastic about.
PS5 is yet to reveal its biggest and most unique features, says SIE's Jim Ryan
Coffee Maker confirmed? Speaking in an interview with Business Insider Japan, Sony Interactive Entertainment President Jim Ryan has stated that...

Wow! I like that. Thanks for sharing.
Yeah I agree, looks really nice!
I'm sure many will come up with great ideas to customize their console.
He said that at the moment he could "give anything away" or talk about "platform comparisons." The implication was he could not talk about that stuff yet...
Such a nice little smile, got to agree though USB-C makes me happy too.My only goal is to find someone who makes me as happy as USB C makes Rich.
What would be surprising about either of these things? These sound like exactly what I would expect out of 3rd party games.
