Game console Playstation 5 offers “a whole host of revolutionary features” and bypasses Xbox Series X for a number of parameters. About this, as a well-known investigative journalist. Jason schreierhe has heard repeatedly from game developers.
Topic Editor Kotaku raised in the latest issue of the podcast Kotaku splitscreenonce again calling marketing Sony Interactive Entertainment “failing.” He pointed out that platform capabilities are not measured by the number of teraflops alone.. However, since the PlayStation team was not able to actually show during the recent presentation the benefits of the PlayStation 5, having published only dry specifications, the network quickly began to spread an opinion about its total iron loss to Microsoft.
“Now people’s attention is focused on the list of technical specifications, where the PS5 has 10.2 teraflops and the Xbox Series X has 12. And immediately the reaction follows: oh my God, the Xbox is now more powerful than the PlayStation. Only here are the people with whom I managed to talk over the past few months and even years who are directly involved in working on the console, say one thing – we have a real monster. “This is one of the most impressive iron solutions we have ever seen and with which we have only been able to work.” This console offers a whole host of revolutionary features, unobvious toolkits and functions, APIs and other things that I don’t even know about. In the end, I’m a journalist, not an engineer, “said Schreyer.
The journalist emphasized that both the Xbox Series X and the PlayStation 5, as his industry interlocutors say, are incredibly powerful.. They have enough in common, but at the same time there are many differences.
“The consensus is that both systems are incredibly powerful, they have a lot of common features and differences that allow us to achieve excellent results. Both of them are incredible hardware. But because of how Sony presented the PlayStation 5, there was a strong belief that the “Xbox is much more powerful than the PlayStation.” And I think that this is a very serious, even critical miscalculation by Sony at the launch of a new generation. Perhaps the mass consciousness will change if the PlayStation 5 is cheaper or if it offers a powerful line games, and maybe by November all bsuzhdeniya general poutihnut Or console will not appear this year, but if we evaluate the situation right here and now, I think this is a complete failure, especially after so many years of wise and well-informed decisions by Sony “, -.. continued Schreier.
According to the data received by the journalist from the developers, there is no very significant difference in power between the Xbox Series X and the PlayStation 5. And by the numbers of characteristics from the published graphs, it’s impossible to say on which console the multi-platform games will look and work better, Schreier said.
“I’ll try to clarify a bit. Based on the information available directly to me from the developers, the new Xbox does not have much higher power compared to the PlayStation 5, despite the teraflops. There are some comparisons on teraflops, but in fact it’s just theoretical In reality, developers have to deal with a lot of factors that can get in the way of their original plans.The GPU may have X-teraflops, but if for some reason you cannot use the whole potential of iron, then you will have very little use from this indicator, and not to mention the whole mass of other variables.
Ultimately, the really important question is as follows: when in the fall before the release a new part of Assassin’s Creed gets out (let’s put aside the panic around the coronavirus for a second) and it will be available right away on the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X – which platform will have better graphics, higher resolution and frame rate? Taking into account the dry list of technical specifications, I don’t think we can answer this question now. “
Schreier “pains” to look at the actions of Sony Interactive Entertainment.
“Sony has a very bad period. They still have not clearly shown how exactly all their technologies can be used in games. The same SSD – developers tell me about its advantages in a way that Sony itself does not tell, and this is simply incomprehensible to the mind “I don’t try and don’t want to do Sony’s own work and tell everyone about“ what the console is really capable of, ”but for some reason the company itself is completely unable to cope with this task. It’s just painful to watch.”
Mark Zerny paid much attention to the technical presentation of the PlayStation 5 with an ultrafast custom SSD. Soon after, several developers immediately declared that this part of the console was extremely important and designed not only to eliminate downloads in games, but also capable of “reversing the approach to game development.”
Mostly Sony internal studio workers spoke on this topic. However, Schreyer said that third-party developers write about the benefits of the PlayStation 5..
“After the presentation, the PlayStation 5 received several messages from the developers who were surprised. Like, the PlayStation 5 is a better console in many ways, but the published specifications do not reflect this. Of course, there will still be time to talk about it and show the games, but now Sony made a mistake “summed up Schreyer.
