Essentially this is the last narrative: Xbox 1st party is far out compared to PS. And somehow Xbox cant do ray tracing?

Couple weeks ago people were spreading FUD that Xbox was too hot and/or loud. Now it’s it can’t do RT when it’s actually better equipped to handle it. These are temporary narratives and that’s what I like. This isn’t a flaw that will stick with Xbox for the entire gen and I can’t wait to see what the next narrative will be.

You are completely right, that games are what matters. But then you take a sidestep and suddenly speak about first party games. Let's be real. Many people buy 3rd-party multiplats. And they are there. There are also exclusives for Xbox, like Medium or gears tactics.

And pretty nice that you mention PS5 backward compatibility, but conveniently forget about Xbox BC.

Console war in full spin. And apparently the console warriors are anxious because it seems, MS isn't giving Playstation an easy win this time around, but is in for a fight. That is why the FUD is spreading. And it might be my filter bubble, but why I see stupid stuff like the made up overheating, the launch lineup (disregarding multiplats or games what release the following weaks or 3rd-party console exclusive because only 1st-party content counts somehow) or this stuff here about raytracing. I haven't seen much of this FUD directed at PS5. Maybe the Xbox-community is more content being happy about what they get instead of desperately finding flaws in the competitors platform. Well, as I said, maybe I just don't see that stuff.

Too late for what exactly?

I've seen way FUD was thrown at the PS5 than the series X.

Well, as I said, possibly my filter bubble.

Games like Gears Tactics “not counting” because it’s a niche genre. The Medium Crossfire X not counting because it’s not 1st party. Ugh, console wars Twitter is brutal sometimes. 

We don’t do FUD this time around (mostly). You right im personally content with MS actually trying this time around. Better to stick with Xbox’s strengths now then try to make stuff up about the other guy.

We just stick to the facts like “better specs”, “Game Pass best value”,  “more gens of BC with enhanced titles” and “We got Bethesda” lol. 

We've seen ray tracing. but i think what is a legitimate question is where are the next gen games from Xbox? Would have been nice to have seen some gameplay at at least by now. Gears 5 looks great though, but not enough to compete in my opinion.

Also I think the video is a lot of rubbish i guess, but some of the footage seen on Xbox Series X and has been publicized looks terrible and there really isn't anything to offset it...which seems to be the issue. As some already said though, nobody cares about graphical features, but they sure do care about games and that's what we all waiting for from Xbox.

Edit: Console warriors will find the saving grace in everything though, but the sales of the consoles will reflect the strategies of both companies.

Such as? Genuinely curious.
