Is this going to be a load of tech talk that I don't understand? Tuning in anyway
It's all about the flops!

Oh look it's Teddy Perkins
Yeah, they said there'll be more time to speak about the games later in the year but they're speaking about hardware today.
TL;DR? Booooooooooooooooooooooooring.

It looks like he's talking about quantum physics
My boss says deep dive all the time or a "shallow" deep dive, grates my balls. Anyway this will be delayed undoubtedly.
Cerny is definitely a serial killer in his spare time.
I didn't ask for a lesson in SSD's = faster than HD's.
Is that Garth from Wayne's World 
I've no idea what he's talking about. But I'm here for it.
I'm with you!
Cerny's voice is relaxing. He'd make a killing doing ASMR
This guy fecks.
No pics of the console yet?
Mark Cerny has the sort of voice we need right now; it's like butter. Even if some of the stuff is way over my head
Not sure what i was expecting but it wasn't this.
Feels like im in a science lecture, general a fecking snoozefest.
The guy has been talking about SSD's now for what feels like 2 weeks.

Just fecking tell me can I at least play PS4 games in it. PS1-3 would be sick
Are they trying to put people to sleep? I rather have buzzwords than this.
Doesn't look like they're going to show it here. Seems more to do with the innards.
Just basically explaining the specs of how powerful it is and saying the same thing over and over with different words. Specs, teraflops, RAM, SSD, etc....for 50 mins. I was kinda hoping for a look at the PS5. PC players. This is you’re fault for jizzing over graphics. Thanks!
Does this mean its a 825gb console?
Did he say 850gb of storage?
I assume that essentially means it’s 1tb?
So expandable storage is the same as Xbox.
Not really, because the Xbox uses custom cards. Cerny said this will support M.2 drives commercially available on the market.
Edit: or at least certain brands and models, it sounds like not all will fit. Still a pretty good solution I'd say.
They weren't kidding on the deep dive part, the guy is going to explain everything down to what the developers have for breakfast in building it.
Hate that new buzzword. The flops.
Finally getting to the backwards compatibility
So RDNA 2 confirmed, same as the Series X.
He said certain brands. Xbox are working with Seagate. Both operate the same way. You can’t play next gen games with any old external HDD. You can play BC games on them.
Altough the X is 12 flops compared to Sony's 10.
And it’s not even 1tb SSD.
It is 825GB. They really aiming for £400 with these specs.

Xbox may work with Seagate but it's still custom cards, not standard M.2 NVME SSD's which were referenced here. They don't operate in the same way, Series X has a slot for their custom card (like a micro sd) while PS5 will have a bay to install your SSD.
Guess need to see how much those Xbox memory cards cost. How much do the M2 drives cost typically?
And both will be pretty much the same price. If you want expandable storage on next gen consoles it will cost a bomb.
For a good one you're talking around 80-100e for 500gb.
Will they be giving a price today?
They're both custom RDNA 2 chips so there will be some differences in some features and certainly in terms of clock speeds.
Cheers @Massive Spanner
Not cheap then.. 500gb doesn't get you far on the current consoles nevermind next gen games
How soon are they expecting us to stream????
