It really isn't half as bad as you implied. Sony will have a much easier time with the PS5 vs the Scorpio, purely because the Scorpio is still an Xbox One, while the PS5 will be a new generation, rather than a faster PS4. The Scorpio sounds great on paper, but because it's still an Xbox One, it's extra power can only be used for higher resolutions and faster framerates, that's really it. It's games won't be able to have larger, more dynamic worlds, more complex AI or new kinds of systems, purely because the standard Xbox One wouldn't be able to run it. The extra power ONLY results in a smoother image output, the actual games that come out are identical. So when Sony release the PS5 with improved hardware due to the advances of the next few years, it'll be at a more reasonable price tag and they'll be able to take full advantage of that hardware with a full generational leap in terms of design and vision, which is something that Scorpio certainly won't have, as it's entirely held back by being an Xbox One and not say, an Xbox Two. Sony could launch a PS5 on the same day as Scorpio with the same specs, and it's games would be a vast improvement over Scorpio's from the start because they're not shackled like Scorpio's games will be.
