Load time comparisons (BC titles):

Xbox Series X quite a bit faster in most titles.
How PS5 And Xbox Series X Backward Compatibility Load Times Compare
Here's how PS5 and Xbox Series X perform booting up some of the last generation's most notable load time offenders.

Pushsquare test. Different results
I get about 5 seconds from Rest Mode to the User Login screen. Then another 3 seconds from User Login to a suspended game. Didn't watch his video so not sure what he's doing differently to me, but those are the numbers I've been getting.

I'm gonna have to do cold boot, so I'm happy with this.
(they only fit in closed cabinets I do not want them in rest mode with no air flow. Will open cabinets when I play )

Downloading patches or system updates when you are asleep is nice tho.
Huh. I didn't expect Series X to load the games that much faster.Load time comparisons (BC titles):

Bravo to the X for going so fast.
My life is not so hectic that I'm going to stress about 10 additional seconds to resume from standby.

Pretty much. Load times with multiplatform next gen games is what I want to see
To be fair they've been refining it for years and have made it a critical part of their console experience.
Fantastic news for both machines, those times are insane.
I always powered down my Xbox One so the improved boot time is going to make a nice QoL difference. I'd use standby so it could download updates automatically but the Series X still uses far too much power in that mode for my liking.
Load times aren't just about storage speed. They can be CPU dependent, or bottlenecked by the network. Especially for games that haven't been built to account for fast storage, the difference was never going to be that massive.
Yeah. Would be a fail for Sony if they don't have the edge given that they clearly have the better tech
Truth! Hell, it's gonna take longer for my TV and AVR to boot than the consoles!
Yeah, I guess that's where Xbox's CPU advantage shows itself.
Series X is super impressive.
That said, ps5 BC is a lot better than I expected, not a match for SX, but a super competent effort.

It's kind of ridiculous that with consoles this powerful you'll be able to go from standby to the point you were last at in a AAA game in about 15-30 seconds.
Cold boots seem slower than I expected.
I feel like the ps4 boot up time is around the 20-25 sec mark?

Well that's interesting as it's a lot faster than Tom Warren's test.
I would guess it's because their OS is more robust than Microsoft's last gen OS.
I don't believe that is insulting to say about Microsoft, the OS is shared with weaker systems.
Shouldn't their faster ssd counteract it be slowed down due to robustness?
What an odd thing to say/ the xbox dashboard was reengineered recently so thats the main impact you are seeing. i assume PS5 is loading less things on demand than XSX
Xbox hardware and software team did a great job.
I also believe they'll keep refining the OS over the course of the gen
I'm a Xbox guy but I would be lying if I didn't say I would be ok with a slower start up if it had some of those PS OS features.
That's much faster than Tom's times. Will be interesting to see videos of this from different people.
