The comments :lol: :lol: :lol:


Edit: is it true that Xboxes have been overheating at this early stage?

No what is true is that the console are hot / warm even when on standby that is also true of the Xbox One X and clearly part of the design.

These are also pre retail ready consoles (though I am sure are very close) that MS has sent to journos 2 months before released in an uncontrolled environment which is unheard of and shows huge confidence in the hardware.

Ah nice so it even gives free heating in the winter, not so bad.
Not the way the Xbox logo is. Using their twitter avatar:

and the disc drive at the top looks ugly.
if anything it looks better horizontal.

mainly though I just wanted to get you to waste 20 seconds of your life moving it on its side.

Yeah... Let's hope it doesn't get worse over time eh?
Apparently PS5 is whisper quiet and cool while in use. Hence the size :lol:

Still... I don't mind it looks nicer the more I see it. Will definitely look into custom plates though.

This is the guy that started said ‘rumour’ correcting those that have taken it out of context


 
It's coming from giant bomb too isn't it?

Jeff Bakalar was showing the memory card on camera - how impressive it is (the size of memory Vs the size in form factor) so pulled it from the console and after holding it for 5-10 seconds was like 'ouch that's hot, whys it to hot'. Then they spoke about how the One X was warm even in standby (I think)

I listened to it on the episode itself and didn't pick up anything concerning. He pulled a component out of a console and the metal piece that was plugged in was hot.

Unless what your referring to is something different anyway.

No surprises Afro is looking for those stupid Xbox gets hot bullshit. Now that he’s realised Bethesda games won’t be coming to PlayStation.
 
I wonder when we’ll get to see some series S in the wild? The fact they aren’t out there right now makes me a bit suspicious of their performance claims...

Why?

We haven’t seen any PS5s in the wild. Are you suspicious of them?

What performance claims? It’s a underpowered console.

That it’ll hit 1440p 60. The SSD isn’t as fast either so perhaps the quick resume features etc aren’t as good. Then there’s how much of the 512Gb is free after OS.... they’ve said the only difference is resolution. Perhaps that’s not the case.

We know the PS5 will be powerful enough just on specs - the Series S is more of an unknown in that regard. Considering they’ve put out the Series X to test, isn’t it weird that they haven’t their other console?

Where's those XBSX exclusive gameplay videos?
 
To be fair do think the series S will hold this gen back hugely

No because people are testing the series x currently. So it’s not weird.

Very rarely have consoles been given to journalists this early, so not sure where this concern is coming from. There’s plenty of time for them to receive Series S.

They both share the same SSD. Just one has a bigger drive than the other.
 
Sony living in Xbox's head rent free.



Also Xbox:



To be fair Sony did poke fun on them for how Microsoft wanted you to not share the games and be online for your single player games as well.

It's just that they choose this to respond with :lol:

Edit : Seems like Tweet is deleted
 
Ah so to expand Xbox series x storage it has to be a derive specifically made for it? Makes sense :lol:
Have they even confirmed if you can play ps5 games off these additional SSDs?

All the news says it’s for PS4 games and you’ll have to transfer ps5 games on to the native ssd to play them. Unless something has changed?

You're thinking of a plug and play drive. The one where he opens up in the video is for an extra internal ssd is it not? Or am I misunderstanding something here? Won't be able to play ps5 games off the external plug and play drive.
