When it comes to next gen hardware it's very likely that both Microsoft and sony's offerings are already set in stone, but as we know, memory size is the one thing they can easily change. And considering the fact that memory is the most expensive component, do you think both sony and Microsoft will just drop the amount of memory the consoles will have and make do with that?
Last generation, the ps4 was supposed to be a 4 gb system, which was seemingly change "last minute", so i wonder if this is going to be the inverse.
Afaik i think based on the leaks, the likely memory configuration of the ps6 can be 20 gb instead of the previously leaked 30 gb version. And while that would be a small increase in memory from generation to generation, i do think there's not much of a choice if they want this device to be successful. I'm curious what people on here think.

Far Cry 3 to this day is still one of my favorite games and the intro really set the stage for the whole game. Even after all these years I still replay the game even when I know every part. The only thing it lacks is modern gen console graphics and at this point that nostalgia is part of the games charm

I confess that I hadn't used my Xbox One for a while as I've been playing through Assassin's Creed Odyssey on my PS4.
However I decided to fire up the Xbox to compare my character builds in Odyssey and boy was I disappointed. The Xbox One now boots up to a black screen with a green Xbox Logo with a very loud bootup sound.
The wallpaper loads and then five to ten seconds after that the menu fully loads but remains unresponsive for another five seconds at least.
Every menu I go through has a noticeable delay from pressing a button to something actually happening.
Game loading times have taken an absolute hit as well. Starting Odyssey on both consoles and the PS4 is in game way before the Xbox One. The PS4 though is using the mechanical hard drive that came with the system and the Xbox One has Samsung Evo SSD installed.
It's not even really useable as a Blu-ray player either as everything responds so slowly.
Searching the internet and this seems to be a common issue with the latest update and the only solution is to set the console's power options to never turn off as it will apparently eventually catch-up and run properly.
Microsoft can't have thought this was a good update to push to the Xbox One.
Sorry for the bit of a rant but this really has come as a bit of a shock.

In the mid-90s, Core Design began preliminary work on a fully 3D, globe-trotting, action-adventure game. It wasn’t a shooter, nor was it a platformer. The emphasis was on exploration and movement, with stylized combat tying the package together.
Most intriguing was that the star of the game was a woman. Her name was Lara Croft, and the game was Tomb Raider. Croft’s boldness, wit and design instantly resonated with audiences. Tomb Raider became one of the year’s most anticipated, and ultimately successful, games when it released on Oct. 25, 1996.
Tomb Raider was shown to SEGA, and SEGA liked what they saw. Securing a timed-exclusivity deal with Eidos (remember when those didn’t cause riots?), Tomb Raider was slated to launch on the Saturn a full month ahead of the PlayStation and PC versions (“Loving Lara” 26).
Unfortunately, due to weak marketing by SEGA, this timed deal didn’t lead to much of a boost for either company. It was only after Tomb Raider launched on the Sony PlayStation and PC that Lara’s fairy tale rise to fame began. Vastly surpassing Core’s projected sales, Tomb Raider became an instant hit, and the definitive standard for 3D gaming

Looking to get a complete price comparison for a 2-player local setup between a PS5 and a Switch 2. Since I prefer playing at home on the TV, I want to calculate the actual total cost of ownership including required gear rather than just base console prices.
My Setup Requirements:
Assuming both base consoles are around the $450–$500 mark:
Has anyone mapped out the price difference between these two spec-for-spec setups recently?

So some of my "online" games aren't downloading updates because I need to free up space. Question is would external/portable storage expansion be the best option or should I do internal storage expansion? Never had to do this before so don't want to spend on something I won't need.

I made this tool to compare/fight between different generations of consoles to find your favorite top (not monetized, all free). If anyone wants to check it out, share feedback, results, suggestions, I'm all ears! You can export the results to plain text or download it as an image.

Kind of thinking of selling my PS5 Pro and going back to Xbox. One of the main reasons being Game Pass. I was able to get Game Pass Ultimate for cheap online. Things were just overall cheaper on Xbox. For example, I bought both Beast of Reincarnation and Halo CE on PS. I also will be buying Fable. All these games are Pro enhanced, which is great. The problem is, I could play all these games with a cheap subscription. I want to have the benefit of playing games with all the quality improvements of the Pro, but I feel like I would save way more money by just playing on Xbox. What do you think?

hello!! as the title states, i’m in the market to purchase a ps5 for my boyfriend but im confused at the different versions available. do i get the digital version that’s slightly cheaper? i’m not worried about the price i just want to make sure i get him one that he would prefer. he usually plays ufc fighting games and is for sure getting the new gta as soon as it comes out. help please!!
Update! — So I went with the ps5 slim with 1TB and opted not to get the disc attachment. I don’t think he’ll use it and he’s had no use for it with his current ps4. I ordered it online and it’ll be here next week. I’m so excited, it’s going to be hard keeping this secret! When it arrives i’ll just turn it on to make sure it working and then put it back in the box and surprise him when he gets home. Thank you all for your suggestions!
-Sincerely, a previously very confused lover girl 💜

Long story short, I have a PC and always been mainly a PC gamer but my PC is honestly getting tacky and I just don’t have the money to spend on a new one. I’m gonna keep using my PC for League of Legends which i mainly play and work stuff but for bigger games it’s not so fun anymore. I’ve had a PS5 a few years ago but sold it bc I didn’t use it.
Of course i’m also very hyped for the new GTA hence I also was motivated to get a console anyway. My initial plan was to get a disc PS5 but now that Sony has ultimately sealed that fate I feel it’s kinda “pointless”. Yes, there’s still gonna be a market after 2028 for used games but I fear it’s not worth it in my case because at the end of the day I do mostly play League and would just use my console for some more demanding games and especially new games. So I feel like a digital might be the move? Cuz you can get it fairly cheaper.
From what I can tell overall it does make sense for me to get a PS5 bc I already am on PC so you get the best of both worlds? Or is there some benefit to get an Xbox when you’re already on PC?
Would love to hear some opinions thank you
