Had no time to watch. What is the general sentiment? The Goods and bad? Expected price?

Good, very good for gamers....Extremely bad for folks with a MBA in Presentations.

No price was given. Specs were in the expected range but were showcased in a super boring presentation.

Honestly Nu-13 I feel the same way "the least you could do is amdit your mistakes"

You make it sound like what Im say is far from the truth.
Its not, the Playstation 4 is alot more powerfull than the Switch.

You guys claiming that its almost Playstation 4 level, are the ones exagerating.
Me saying theres like a 4 times differnce in performance between the PS4 and the Switch shows in games, isnt wrong.


Exsample:

Wolftenstein youngblood (panicbutton port (a good port)) runs 540-720p docked, and 30fps on Switch.
With alot of compromises to graphics settings and textures on the switch.

Playstation 4, its 1080p and 60fps.

playstation is running the game at like 2-4 times the resolution, higher graphics settings, higher quality textures, and twice the fps.


Common, the reason that happends is because the PS4 has more grunt to it than the switch.
its obvious theres like a x4 performance differnce between the two.

Dont say Im cherry picking, I really wasnt.
Alot of the more demanding multiplats the switch got, its obvious theres a drastic differnce in resolution/fps/texture quality/effects ect.


Also once again, thanks for derailing a thread again about this BS claims of Switch power being more than it is.
How many more future threads will you do this in?

It wasn't a bad presentation but damn they really messed up PS5 BC. It wasn't a feature I intend to use but Sony dropped the ball on it. I wasn't expecting the PS5 to play all PS1/PS2/PS3 games but PS4 games seemed like a certainty.

GPU/CPU favors the XSX while the PS5 SSD is 2x faster. Although I think we'll see a PS5 Pro down the line. I'm also curious as to how the SSD impacts game/level design.

The bright side to all of this, Sony still hasn't had their "XOne DRM moment," despite such an underwhelming presentation. We probably won't get see PS5 SIE titles until GOT is released, though.

Here is playstation blog post about the event:

And I'm not saying that Cerni lied, but he did some PR talk to make it look great while hiding some of the shadows.

The Digital Foundry article that has been posted several times on the thread explains it a bit better:

Put simply, the PlayStation 5 is given a set power budget tied to the thermal limits of the cooling assembly. "It's a completely different paradigm," says Cerny. "Rather than running at constant frequency and letting the power vary based on the workload, we run at essentially constant power and let the frequency vary based on the workload."

(...)

It's a fascinating idea - and entirely at odds with Microsoft's design decisions for Xbox Series X - and what this likely means is that developers will need to be mindful of potential power consumption spikes that could impact clocks and lower performance.

Also, no, it doesn't mean that it will frequencies in less demanding games. It means that if both the CPU and GPU have to run at 100% capacity and they reach the thermal limit, one of the two parts (likely the GPU) will have to lower their frequency until the spike is gone and can go up again.

That is not only derailing as it is bringing topic from different thread to attack a user.

Well hopefully it’s shape can dissipate heat effectively 

It have been the story of some people since X360... complain about Playstation, lack of games, etc go Xbox first, after a couple years trade for playstation and say he won't ever again buy xbox again until new gen appears.
