Are there any updates on the PS1/2/3 BC? I don't know anything about the console but I would instantly pre-order if they implement this feature.

Cerny is a wonderful public speaker. I'm quite enjoying this presentation. It is exactly what it was advertised as, a GDC presentation by the PlayStation 5 Lead System Architect.

he really feels the need to defend whether or not Sony added customizations before or after AMD incorporated them?

Yup, PS5 has 5.5 Gbps I/O throughput per second. XSX has 2.4 Gbps. So more than double. This is gonna MASSIVELY impact gaming experience compared to the XSX. Sure the XSX will maybe run at a slightly higher resolution but most people don't see that difference. Double as fast loading time though? Everyone can see that.
I know it was for last gen games but MS showed some very fast load times. 6 second vs the 45+ seconds it takes for some current gen games.

So what impact will it have in comparison. 1/2 second load time would be amazing for sure but would it really be a massive impact vs 6 second?

825gb SSD, system most likely will use like 200gb. So you can have like 4 games on your PS, nice... wtf
I'm going to use a 2TB extended storage drive, and transfer games to and from, as and when I need to play them. Same as with Series X.

So wait a minute. I was a little confused by the M2 SSD part. So you can use off the shelf SSDs but they will be significantly slower than their solution? Also the "off the shelf" drives have to be "approved" to work with PS5? I thought that's what I was getting where he said off the shelf drives won't be available at launch and to hold off buying any.
no, he said that you have to wait for SSD's to come out that match PS5 specs., meaning the high speed and compatible with their software stack

Essentially: some drives won't fit/be fast enough/be optimal, so Sony is going to test them all themselves and let you know which are ideal.

Anyone posting about how this is "boring" or "this is not how you launch a console" needs to get their hand slapped.

They made it very clear what this was going to be and for what it is, I find it really interesting.
