PlayStation 5 System Architecture Deep Dive |OT| Secret Agent Cerny

[Deleted member 5596]

I mean, I was in no matter what because of exclusives but this is underwhelming. I guess will have to make a high end PC sooner than I thought.

Yes

Yes and it can come off the shelf.

Nice. I feared I had to have an external box for an SSD besides the PS5 console itself. But it's nice I can just insert an extra SSD into the console itself.

I was fucking ready for the ps1 2 and 3 logos to fill the empty space.

This is the only proper way to compare these systems.

 

[dodo]

What even is this post?

Click to shrink...

everyone complaining about this being boring or worried that it's "not bringing hype" or whatever is being a huge baby

 

[ResetEraIsTheBestEra]

I hope no more loading screens and black transitions screens on secret of mana with this ssd

 

[HanSoloCup]

This is awesome! I wish Cerny had been one of my professors, I could listen to him all day.

 

[RecRoulette]

Well, that backwards compatibility news isn't as great as I thought it was going to be.

 

[Naga]

Wonder which PS4 games won't be BC at launch, and why.
Outside of the obvious VR exclusives or similar I guess.

 

[Contramann]

i don't understand why everyone is mad about it this is oddly calming

Click to shrink...

They wanted end expected E3 hype presentations for some reason

 

[hrœrekr]

Will this be on the exam?

 

[Deleted member 8468]

Shame to hear we won't get blanket BC, but hopefully they keep up the work on it.

 

[Ryuelli]

Awww, I was hoping they would have found a way to have PS3 backwards compatibility too. I have a bunch of PS3 games lying around, but no PS3.

 

[Dodgerfan74]

This is a pretty good gdc talk to be honest. Not something you should advertise to sometimes as a console reveal tho.

Click to shrink...

This.

Also, is that all for backwards compatibility? Ugh, Sony, you're killing me here.

 

[Nocturno]

I'm almost 100% sold on BC but what about older generations?

 

[Edgeward]

I understand little of this but feel very soothed.

 

[Dokkaebi G0SU]

wait, what did cerny say about BC? only 100 titles from ps4 at launch(maybe)?

 

[WetWaffle]

I really hope this wasn't the final word on backwards compatibility, i wanna play my ps2/ps3 games on there

 

[Deleted member 10612]

From Polygon's XSX spec sheet:

I/O Throughput
2.4 GB/s (Raw), 4.8 GB/s (Compressed, with custom hardware decompression block)

From Eurogamers PS5 spec sheet:

IO Throughput
5.5GB/s (Raw), Typical 8-9GB/s (Compressed)

Thinking about it, ill rather have -50% load times then 20% better gfx.

 

[Megatron]

Damnit no talking about PS1-PS3 BC :(

Click to shrink...

Lol. Hopefully that's still coming.

 

[RyanBankz]

I was fucking ready for the ps1 2 and 3 logos to fill the empty space.

Click to shrink...

Saaaaame LOL

 

[mikehaggar]

Interesting that PS4 BC isn't 100%. I had expected all PS4 games to run on PS5, no issue.

 

[Turkishflavor]

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.

Click to shrink...

 

[ZeoVGM]

Gamers are awful.

 

[Anya7890]

yes to no certain branded ssds! that is a huge deal over xbox.

 

[Perfectsil]

PS4 BC needs to be tested game by game, top 100 ps4 games are "almost" all compatible

 

[Kabuki Waq]

No ps3 backwards compatibility? I missed that part. Can someone clarify

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

Wut

People we're expecting PS1-3 backwards compatability?!?!?

Are you high?

 

[Shark]

uh this is not a console launch

Click to shrink...

It's the first significant information and impression the general public is getting on this new product. If they didn't want it perceived as such, they probably shouldn't have led with it.

 

[blastprocessor]

This better not be as expensive as Series X !

 

[Sausage_Poison]

Damn. So no PS1-PS3 backwards compatibility huh?

 

[PeakPointMatrix]

I turned it off but came back and Cerny still talking. arhhhhhh!!!

Click to shrink...

Did NO ONE remember how the PS4 was revealed??

what were you expecting from Cerny's architecture walkthrough??

 

[Mona]

PS5 not powerful enough to run PS1 confirmed

 

[NO!R]

If Mark Cerny was in charge of COVID-19 vaccine development it wouldn't have made it out of Wuhan.

 

[Mass Effect]

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.

Click to shrink...

Cerny just talked about BC and didn't say anything about PS1/2/3 for PS5, only PS4 BC.

I don't think we're getting it :(

 

[doof_warrior]

That gap is fucking heartbreaking

Click to shrink...

theres still hope ps1/2 could and should easily be done in software
ps3 though? ..yeah

 

[M. Wallace]

Ray Tracing

Riiiddggeee Racer

 

[Diarrhea Day-Lewis]

Woah not all PS4 games are BC. Wow. That's really bad imo. Still buying at launch but I can't believe they don't have 99% day one

 

[WoahW]

Oof when you start downplaying specs you admit something isn't as good as something else. Just talk about it and move past it. Acting like it doesn't matter means people will focus on it more

 

[JackBauer24]

This is so boring.

 

[Blackleg-sanji1]

Sony:"legacy? Fuck we care about that for"

 

[The Artisan]

XSX :

PS5:

Click to shrink...

As far as I can tell (though this thread is moving very fast) Ps5 is faster but not more powerful than Series X. SSJ2 is both more powerful and faster than USSJ so I dunno if it's a balance rather than a trade off.

 

[Liquid Snake]

This is a disastrously boring reveal. As a massive fan of videogames and Playstation in general, I feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone,

 

[El Bombastico]

...So, is this Blast Processing all over again?

 

[BrickArts295]

The man really has an ASMR voice XD
I like this talk but I'm also getting sleepy.

 

[SgtCobra]

That gap is fucking heartbreaking

Click to shrink...

Hahahaha

 

[Deleted member 8468]

INTERSECTION ENGINE!

Doesn't have the same ring as Emotion Engine.

 

[Kinthey]

Will this be on the exam?

Click to shrink...

Where can I get the handout? I still don't have the handout

 

[DangerMouse]

Seriously wondering what a whole lot of people thought "System Architecture Deep Dive with Mark Cerny" was gonna be if not this.

This is peak PSMR.

Click to shrink...

This.

 

[Woodsey]

But Sony said people don't want BC ?
