Actually just watched a video of a guy blowing vape into it and it makes it look like it’s smoking so that’s probably the smoking issue debunked. No idea why cunts would do that, pure attention seeking. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy that is pictured above has around 600k views.. even if he only made afew quid per 1000 views - at the very least he will have doubled his money. If nothing else, the video shows the Series X is actually pretty durable as it still works after taking a beating! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CR3 12,682 Posted November 25, 2020 Author Share Posted November 25, 2020 Jokes aside what is the most powerful console @Iakona - I’ve not seen enough on ray tracing or 4k60 that is making me get a Series X. SSD loading times the main benefit Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SSD loading times the main benefit On a piece of paper, the series X is more powerful... but when it comes down to it, in real world performance they are basically the same. The arguments about the extra Teraflops etc don't really tell the whole story. Some games will run better on the PS5, some will run better on the Xbox - but it will be marginal and shouldn't really be a deciding factor. Both seem to be doing pretty well for 4k/60 though, even the likes of COD is running very well at 120fps. It does of course vary by the game i.e. Spider-man will only run at 30fps in fidelity mode(native 4k with raytracing) I'm actually really surprised at how well they are both doing to be honest. For £450 the level of performance is a steal. (YouTube isn't doing these consoles any favours though) Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will take a few years to judge that properly but the Xbox exclusives, or potential ones, are more my bag anyway. I like Halo, Gears, Forza, Ori and if the Bethesda games become exclusive then that suits me too as I like Doom and Wolfenstein. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bethesda games will be timed exclusives imo, if not DOOM would be the biggest miss for PS5 definitely. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
