Console is low quality, confirmed.

1 - They are not too keen to show the design, obviously it will disappoint

2 - Controller still looks cheap, look at those joysticks, like a Chinese PC controller

3 - Sony always cheapens out, look at the pro against the X, pro has bad cooling, poor battery life, flimsy body not strong like the X, lower specs, no 4K BluRay 

4 - Sony hasn't mentioned cooling when they presented the specs, this means they are not proud of it when they spent half hour talking about 3d audio, its going to be yet again a noisy playstation against a quiet xbox

5 - I am always right, just like when I said its impossible for the ps5 controller to have a screen on it, due to price, and Ill be right again when I said the console can't be small like some people expect it to be as small as a ps4 slim, that's ridiculous, the heating would destroy the console quick.

1. That's a fallacy- Because they haven't shown it yet, there must be something wrong with it.

2. You're entitled to your opinion, looking cheap and being cheap are two different things though.

3. The PS3? The Pro was $100 cheaper than the X.

4. Again this is a fallacy.

5. You're jumping to conclusions, arguing from ignorance, and stating what is simply your own conjecture as facts.

I'd suggest readjusting your logic, nobody is always right.

There's many ways to look at how all of this could have gone down so far, and from either side it's harder to understand the 'opposition'.

Take this for example.

Why did MS overemphasize the locked clocks when that is typical for consoles, even before the PS5 GDC event? Maybe it was coincidence, and maybe MS had some info on PS5 variable clocks already and used it to position themselves in a manner that would work to their advantage.

If this were to be true, then what else did MS know? The controller design? The console design? Some are saying the XBSX tower is original, but only to unreleased consoles. It's been the newest hottest thing for PC's, so what are the odds that SNY might have been planning the same type of design as well?

If that were the case, and the PS5 and XBSX were both going to look alike, wouldn't it be smart to get it out early, market yourselves as being ahead of the curve, as well as bold and confident? That way later on, PS can be the ones to deal with the 'you copied the competition' attacks? Better yet, perhaps force SNY to change the design of one or both? Remember what the memes did to XB1? Remember the changes MS made to XB1 last minute and asap after launch? SNY has made it clear they wanted to sit back and wait, so MS might as well use that to their advantage however they can.

Something that should give SNY some reasonable credibility, is that based on the individuals saying they reacted to the MS announcement, if that truly is the case, maybe, maybe not, then why didn't they wait if they knew they were in such big trouble? Why didn't they choose not to make the footage available to everyone? Look how long they already waited. It's not like a little longer would have changed much. This implies SNY either didn't react to anything, or they did, and are confident in whatever they have coming.

Could either be possible? Sure. Are there other possible scenario's? Plenty, that work for or against both sides.
