It's hard to know because it doesn't seem like people care much about power as you would think. I'm genuinely not sure how MS's launch will go with having two different systems like this. Sony on the other hand I expect to do well no matter what. I think each company will have a hard time getting users to switch brands because of backwards compatibility. No one is going to want to leave all the games they've collected over this gen behind without a very good reason to do so.

@bolded: there, fixed it for you

Mess up how? I expect them to put out something with slightly more teraflops and probably same price or slightly more expensive. How could they mess anything up too badly?

True, digital has made huge strides last gen. I would be leaving close to a hundred VR games behind. Even though I would probably never touch most of them again, some I'm very curious to see how they look with ps5 boost.

XBox One didn't fall behind on resolution, in practice the difference was minimal, especially to the average consumer. Kinect and lack of exciting new exclusives is more to blame. Price isn't even the biggest factor as in the US the XBox still kept decent pace with the ps4 at the start. PS3 did lack great games at the start, yet when Sony started pumping out more exciting new games the tides turned. Exclusives are still more important than people want to acknowledge. Word of mouth, can only play it on x system, then friends have x system and the ball keeps rolling.

MS has an uphill battle again, Sony is closing out the gen with big hitters while on the MS side its pretty quiet except for the most powerful place to play.

I think we will see a $399 ps5 that will be less powerful than the Series X. So people who care about having the most powerful console and bought a X1X over a ps4 pro, will likely pick up a Series X. However, in the end the masses will just go with the most affordable console that has the best exclusives. I see MS dropping the ball because they're too focused on cross-gen and putting all their eggs in the GP basket. Having the most powerful console is pretty pointless if they don't have any exclusives to showcase it.

More reputable sources have PS5 at 10.7+ and stronger than the XSX: 13.3 TF.
We've already got confirmation of RDNA2.

If Sony is able to release a more powerful console, with their brand power advantage, better 1st party track record and regional advantage then it's game over for Xbox on the hardware front.

Some people are getting real impatient about no news on PS5. Its okay people. Take a breath. Sony will release the info when they're ready.

It's only March, I see no reason to panic about Sony remaining silent.

My only problem with the lack of information is that we were expecting Playstation Experience to reveal on mid February and that got pushed to first half of March and so far nothing =[
I'm eager for news.

yea, I'm very excited to see what games Sony has slated for launch/launch window.
