Anders, 17 Sep 2020So what advantages does this have over a PS4 Pro?Except for the lack of library equal to years worth on the ps4 and possible launch bugs/defects/flaws...

Check out NVMe speed comparisons if you don't believe me. NVMes are already barely any faster than regular SSDs. And microsoft's one is already very fast. So the HIGHEST difference that you'll see would be 1-2 seconds in load times. While 20% improvement in graphics will get you from 100fps to 120. Now that's a noticeable jump

Ratchet and Clank is the best example of this, that game wouldn't be possible at all on current generation hardware. The SSD allows developers to stream assets directly from the SSD instead of using the RAM.
That's a massive change opening up a whole new way of creating and designing games.

Barricade, 17 Sep 2020It does have full BC with PS4 titles, but they are testing titles to make sure they run well. ... moreSony didn't said that , It said that all Ps4 games are working , they only do testing to check for the added performance that is all . since PS4 /PS5 architecture is the same.

PS5 Digital: Best value and arguebly better lineup
Series X / PS5: if you want the best of the best. Series X has 20% faster gpu and PS5 has 100% faster SSD. In real world you probably won't notice a difference. Pick based on games.

Anders, 17 Sep 2020Thanks. It was a genuine question. They didn't mention the specs in the article and I hav... moreNo worries. Anyway someone already awnsered your question. I haven't really followed the rumors either, but my guess is it has much more powerful hardware.
All I care about consoles is that an xbox 360 can play gta5. Don't really need more than that

I’m surprised Sony is able to sell ps5 de for 399$. That’s a very aggressive price and should sell like hot cakes while the 499$ normal version seems overpriced compared to the 499$ more powerful Xbox series x.

Me, who just bought a gaming PC 2 months ago with 500EUR, and subscribed to the Game Pass for PC (5EUR/month), laughing at this "Who is better PS or Xbox?" thing.
Yeah, yeah, so there are exclusives on both sides. Still, the best days of my life as a gamer were on my PC's (starting from 1999).
I also owned a PS3 (first ever console), PSP, Xbox 360, Wii Mini, 3DS, PSVita, Switch, PS4, Switch Lite.
The best games I played and enjoyed in my life were games found, in the majority of times, on all platforms.

Anonymous, 16 Sep 2020PS5 will sell more than 90 million. Both Xbox will not even reach half. Will not happen. Price hike of $100 for what improvements?

The only thing that matters is your budget. And rn microsoft seems to be better for the budget. Then the ps5 might or might not be better for when you have all the money in the world
