For the current price or could you have been willing to spend +600 bucks for such SKUs ? Not saying you cant be disappointed but both companies are already selling these systems at a loss, so im not quite sure what expectations people had.
Not a huge gap from the Series S considering the potential for smaller games on the S.
You guys do realize these consoles are an incredible value, right?
Some crow eatin to do.
Don't say that say ... they will claim you are generalizing the whole era forum. Shhhhhhhhh
Personally, I would have preferred both brands to offer another SKU with more storage at a higher price. perhaps £100 more.
The price of both consoles is at a good spot, but i'm not sure I can justify paying £200+ for extra storage.
I think the view was that the PS5 OS would magically be a fraction of the size of the XSX's.Seriously. What is this?
All of these posts are like you didnt know that the PS5's SSD is smaller than 1TB? Why do you act surprised? Why do you act as you don't know that the space in specs is not what will be available for storage, when you do? This is getting weird.
I really hope AAA games actually get smaller. I don't really buy it though.
We already know that isn't going to happen on PS5.Dang. That's gonna get eaten up immediately by just the PS4 games I was still playing through. Even worse if the storage is like the PS4 where the OS requires a huge amount of open space available to facilitate games updates for some reason. Hopefully we'll have some expansion options available before 2021 is over.
Read OP...
XSX 1TB = 930GiB (final storage is 802 meaning OS is 128)
PS5 825GB = 768 GiB (final storage 664 meaning OS is 104)
supposedly it uses smaller assets, let's see if thats true. It may end up holding exactly the same amount of games as the ps5 once the series S filesizes are made public. Who knows though.
Mmm well it plays all the latest games and has some great exclusives judging by past history what exactly do you want lol
That's... not really that small.I dunno man Demon Souls is around 60gbs. I would like it to happen.
Shinobi said he heard it will be a couple of hours.I was hoping Astrobot would be bigger
I was expecting a 3ish hour experience. It could still be I suppose.
...is this a serious post?
Have you seen how big games already are? They are hardly smaller at all. Smaller, yes, but still big. Come on. "Move along" really?
I mean it is news in that people finally know exactly what the usable space will be out of the box - while we knew it would be around 620-670gb, we never knew where it would land.
Also while I expect game sizes to be less at the start of the generation compared to currently, sizes I think will blow out again a couple of years out and the size of these drives in launch units will be a significant issue for both the PS5 and S/X
Agree with you. The size of the space doesn't bother me too much cause I delete stuff frequently but some members won't let you be disappointed in peace.Posting that you are disappointed by something on this forum has been increasingly difficult over the past few weeks. Posts with accusations of concern and purposely being negative always seem to be abundance on threads like this.
I would have liked more out of the box storage for both PS5 and Xbox, Especially given that I adopted to a full digital library and my internet speeds are mediocre at best
No news here. Move along.
Anyway, more than enough space considering the games sizes will be less than what we have today
Fud - just that fud when it comes to the XSX does not get called out as much.
It's almost as much storage as a 1TB PS4, it's fine, and it's like 100x faster. Sound capabilities are not unknown. No stock means it sold out fast. Higher game prices? Fair. No native 4k? Who gives a shit, good graphics are good graphics, and there is nothing more powerful without spending obscene amounts on a PC.Ridiculously low storage, unknown UI, unknown sound capabilities, unknown BC issues, no stock, higher prices, no native 4k on shit (which is mostly epeen), maybe I'm reading too much ERA and its newfound negativity is getting to me, but it is disheartening.
It will depend from case to case.
If it means the UI is absolutely snappy without even the minimum of slowdown, I'll alow the barebone-ness.
The PS4 UI is just tiring, even on Pro, and that shit is also barebones as fuck. After all it's not a PC, I'm going to play games on a PS5.
Well I never saw that. Good to know.
Emulator files are small though, aren't they? Not that I think there's going to be BC further back than PS4.edit: correctednin replies
remainder:
It sure looks and sounds like the Playroom is not going to be a very deep experience
And should put to bed any chat about emulators being built into it
So like a few GB? Lol.I think Miles Morales has a slightly smaller size on the PS5 than on the PS4? Of course, you can't say anything definitive just from that one example.
and there is nothing more powerful without spending obscene amounts on a PC.
Not entirely true if Hitman for example is going to be close to 200 GB. Same with CoD. Let's say you install both of those games as 'background' games that you often boot up to play a quick round, that leaves room for maybe 1 or 2 games you're currently playing through. Seeing as I'm a reviewer I often juggle between games, so this isn't a lot. I couldn't even install 10 AAA-games on my 1 TB PS4 Pro. 825 GB is really, really tiny for modern games.Its enough space for like 10 games, who has that many installed at once?
Aren't the recent Samsung Evo 980 compatible?
