The XSX is the superior hardware though, it doesn’t need secret sauce. But if you want to call it that, fine, but at least wait until/if it reaches anything near eSRAM/SSD levels of saucy.

You and some others here didn't wait to call SSD on PS5 secret sauce when it isn't near the level o eSRAM. The most people are speculating is how the data from ssd streaming faster could cover for the gap in PS5. Haven't seem a single person here saying PS5 have stronger spec, with eSRAM that was the case (X1 stronger than PS4).

I didn’t need to wait, people here and everywhere else on the Internet did it for me. Also it has surpassed eSRAM in terms of hopes and speculation. There have been plenty of threads here, and a gargantuan amount on GAF and Reeeee plus Reddit and YouTube. Even right there in your reply, how streaming data can close the gap. It can’t. Believing it can or even might is what makes the PS5 SSD the secret sauce of this gen. Thanks for confirming my argument. 

Stronger specs isn’t the barometer. But please, don’t act as if anyone here has talked about the velocity architecture in the same manner people have speculated about how the SSD could change things. There’s been next to no talk about that from Xbox users. Again, because it isn’t needed. The XSX is superior hardware. People don’t have to speculate about secret sauce. With Xbone, people did. With PS5, people are.

I don’t see anything productive coming from this convo though 🖖
