In any case, as I did not know if it was a joke or not, I have made the decision based on events in general, and not based on that comment. I will speak publicly when everything is official. Until then only PM.
I find it ridiculous that the Xbox Series X would be 12Tf. I mean, Phil Spencer says that it's twice as powerful than the Xbox One X, and someone was like "I know math: 6x2= 12!!" Of course it is, but it's likely that Phil meant it in a general way and not in a mathematical one.
There was one rumor that said the PS5 would be 9-10 Tf and the Xbox One X would be 10.X Tf. For me, that is the most believable. Many people say that both consoles are very close in power. That is something a lot of rumors have agreed on. If the Xbox Series X was 12 Tf, then the PS4 had to be 11.X - 12 Tf. However, many rumors have agreed that the PS5 is between 9 - 10 Tf. If both consoles are very close in power, it makes sense that the latter is more believable. Even if the PS5 gets to be more powerful than the Xbox, there is no way any of the consoles reach 12 Tf.
No one is requesting a ban for you. They were joking about wccftech. Right now people are so thirsty they will make a story out of any information from anyone who may know.My intention was not to be part of a story. Having seen it, the best thing will be to stop giving my opinion and dedicate myself only to reading until everything is official. If anyone has any professional questions send me a PM.
I mean.. entirely possible. They may not want to eat into sales.. but then again, they announced BC in April 2019 to prevent that. As long as we all know PS5 plays PS4 games, all's good.I still think Sony holds back on the reveal because they still have one hell of a release year with Playstation 4. After Final Fantasy 7 and The Last of Us 2 is the time to promote their new hardware. Perhaps a few weeks before TLoU2 with the argument that you can use your library on PS5.
Until then I only see Hardware talk on higher level without a full reveal..
But now I'm thinking it is something more in the vein of a video documentary. Likely it will be announced to air just some days ahead.
You've been thinking this for a while actually. We still have some time for them to announce an event for February.What if Sony have spent a few $ million on making a 90-120 minute 'PS5 revealed' documentary w/R&D insight, behind the studio scenes, interviews etc. instead of a PS Meeting.
Hrmmm I would like thisWhat if Sony have spent a few $ million on making a 90-120 minute 'PS5 revealed' documentary w/R&D insight, behind the studio scenes, interviews etc. instead of a PS Meeting.
Ha that won't be until 2023 all their consoles have roughly a ten year lifespan.
I want clarify here too.No one is requesting a ban for you. They were joking about wccftech. Right now people are so thirsty they will make a story out of any information from anyone who may know.
As a part is the key. If it replaced the reveal itself I'd be a little disappointed.Honestly a nice little 15-30 min documentary as part of the reveal would be pretty dope tbh

People going nuts only in expectation.
Just imagine if Sony announces the presentation date... or imagine Sony doing a presentation...
Sony should be silent for months, they are the centre of attention doing nothing!

It's a fine line though because eventually people may think fuck it...get angry. Purchase a gpu. Purchase a switch.
It's a possibility that you end up angering a portion of your fanbase. Silence can instill doubt. I'm starting to think they have the weaker box, and they are now trying to work out how they counter microsofts approach.

Kinda agree. No wonder insiders don't come here. Even if they just give educated guesses, or dare to vaguely confirm/deny speculations, what they say will be quoted as facts. Disgusting.And there goes another industry person ran off due to stupid ass games journalism. Hey Wccftech, if you're reading this? Fuck off. I think it's time to ban them from Era.
Wooosh for me...... So euhm find someone else to saddle up? Jippy ya yeeh?
No clue what you're trying to say.
It's not the concept I'm against. I just think Sony is doing a very bad job with it. Even if they announced 10 new GOTY games, the way they excute it is boring AF!!!! Also do you really believe that direct is the direct cause of it ballooning to 50 mil? lol
Also what's with the tone to me?

At least on PS5 the hyenas will look this goodIt's not going to stop them reading it and doing the same thing, it's just how it is these days, everyone jumps on the smallest piece of info like hyenas.
This is getting boring - let's discuss some actual secret sauce.
Does anyone think either of the consoles will have any kind of machine learning cores? Like the Turing cores in Nvidia cards?
The reconstruction in Wolfenstein was so impressive - to the point where it looked sharper than native 4K - because of them. If next gen consoles used that we would have spectacular games. If one console had it and another didn't it would be a huge GPU advantage too.
That kind of reconstruction tech would actually be a real game changing secret sauce.
I'm an intern at a game development studio. Everyone who works in the games industry and their mothers already know about PS5 specs by now.How do you know?
Have you got info, you have got info haven't you!!!!! I'm writing an article about hyenas.
Without telling anything concrete, do you have knowledge that your studio has devkits?I'm an intern at a game development studio. Everyone who works in the games industry and their mothers already know about PS5 specs by now.
Only the first half of my post is true.
Don't hope for any insider information from me. The place I'm working in is very small and I'm based in Malaysia. We're probably the last place to be getting dev kits, LOLWithout telling anything concrete, do you have knowledge that your studio has devkits?

Well, thank you anyway.Don't hope for any insider information from me. The place I'm working in is very small and I'm based in Malaysia. We're probably the last place to be getting dev kits, LOL
It could also be a possibility that their BC solution is not that good or not ready yet.It's a fine line though because eventually people may think fuck it...get angry. Purchase a gpu. Purchase a switch.

May reveal isn't bad. Xbox one revealed in May and I that went fine
Aside from the bad ideas they had going on yeah I don't think it would have worked out too badly.May reveal isn't bad. Xbox one revealed in May and I that went fine
We have been getting drips and drabs and people dont believe, GDC whispers wont make it easier lol.We are going to get bits of info from GDC hopefully, it's not official but I still like the drips and drabs and people trying to put it all together.

I'm still expecting February simply because things WILL leak come GDC.
But now I'm thinking it is something more in the vein of a video documentary. Likely it will be announced to air just some days ahead.
Wouldn't that be an airdrop though?PS5 shadowdrop incoming, they'll literally drop the consoles from helicopters to your head.

I don't believe any leak that doesn't put the XSX around 12 TF's. Question for the techies: Is it possible that the implementation of ray tracing impacts the power/performance of XSX to where it would be more in line with a 9 or 10 TF PS5? What are other ways to bridge this 2-3 TF gap performance-wise?
