Per usual your post is full of stuff that is irrelevant.

- general consensus doesn’t matter, Sony was getting more praise and hype back when all they had was a logo.

- developers were asking for SSDs, both consoles have them. Again no one is saying SSDs standard isn’t a big deal lol

- exactly what is traditional about the SSX design? IIRC you’ve said this before and was corrected.

You're saying we can't judge both streams because the masses will praise Sony over MS anyway? General consensus aside, MS's stream was a snooze fest compared to Sony's and we both know why. If you're not impressed with what Sony showed then I'm seriously curious which Series X games MS showed during their stream, that did impress you.

Unless you're a game developer with experience using both consoles devkits, we simply have no idea how having half the throughput will limit the Series X compared to what's possible on ps5. Obviously, both consoles have amazing hardware and now that Sony has made its first move,its up to MS's first party studios to show something with the same wow factor. It's not an impossible task and I don't think people will be more impressed by whatever Sony shows by default. MS just has to show more than current gen games with a bunch of optimized for Series X logos. 

You can judge whatever you want, but using public praise or chatter is irrelevant because again, they were beating MS in that regard even when all they had done was show a logo. Of course a showcase will blow up. That’s not to say MS had a better showing, your barometer is just flawed.

The second paragraph is hilarious because you and a vast majority of the other PS fans around the Internets are also not game devs with both dev kits yet you can speak so factually about how limited the XSX is or how superior the PS5 design is. You also routinely speak factually about how limited first party XSX games will be but you aren’t a developer for MS so how would you know? Try to practice what you preach. 

I already said Ratchet was impressive. I also enjoyed quite a few of the smaller scale titles and moneyhat games. Unlike the XSX event feedback, I don’t mind smaller titles that end up being cross gen. In fact two of the most impressive looking games imho were cross gen, Little Devil Inside and whatever the Zelda type game was.
