Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
Like 60fps. Stop mattering to the chest pumpers on here and Twitter as well.

We really ran the entire gauntlet here. DF, Starfield, cerney, 9.2tf, 60 FPS.

Sony's first party has delivered in that regard imo and the games that currently have an unlocked VRR mode would most likely run at a locked 120hz that alone is worth it for me not to mention the future current gen games running and looking a lot betterThe problem with this comment is, as I've been saying for the last few days in various threads, we were sold on both the PS5 and XSX as being 60fps (with 120fps later!) machines. These current machines were supposed to be those 60FPS boxes. Why would anyone believe the marketing hype around mid-gen refreshes? I know I certainly wouldn't -- nor would I be inclined to spend gobs of additional money to get what I was told I was going to get from the XSX and PS5 in first place.
Not everyone wants to game on PC. Some just prefer the nature of consoles.Is there a single Xbox Series game you can't play on the PC? Like, even one? Maybe they really should tell people who want more to just build a PC.
Edit: I do reciend my assertion that title is misleading as they are just going off of Johns comments, you are right.
come on..... wish one of them would make an enthusiast box. 800, 900, 1000 something pro level and make alittle profit on it.
Sure, but if all you care about is graphics power, then console is not your platform.Not everyone wants to game on PC. Some just prefer the nature of consoles.
But if you are a PC gamer then the Xbox is kind of pointless.
Sometimes I wish that Xbox takes a leaf out of Sony's book and doesn't answer anyone's questions ever.
So when the PS5 Pro comes out they'll have a Series S Pro Pro?People?
I recall folks saying that the SX is already the midgen refresh for the S, or that they launched a base and Pro model at the same time.
This just feels like an extension of the same rhetoric.
So did the guys at DF kill your cat or something? Seems rather personal over mere video games analysis.The face on Dickbeaterwhen John goes off script...

But probably in reality he is just nervous to see will this doofus deliver the marketing message coming from Greenburger without realizing how idiotic things he is made to say.
Good work @demigod or who ever wants to take credit of running dark10x out of here...
Why do you pretend to play stupid?![]()

Hold on.. there were actually people in 2020 on this forum that referred to the XSX as their midgen refresh or as something that negated the need for one?Isn't that what many of us also said in 2020 ?
If the timestamp isn't working then it's 3 minutes 10 seconds in.
John states that they consider the Series S to be the "standard machine" and that the Series X was to get out there ahead of time in terms of what they would consider to be a refresh.
Come on man, you know damned well all of that has happened. Especially the copium from those who would throw shade if it were the other way in a first party title. I'm okay with their choice, but it's laughable how the narratives flip on a dime, "for the brand." And this happens with all fan groups.I wish I was an insider.
C'mon man. Look at the posts in this thread, if started with an off hand comment made to DF and look at where we're at.
It's tough when the statements made before launch, to describe the intent of the consoles, get recontextualized 2 years later to fit a new narrative. That being, MS's place in a console market where they will potentially be completely outgunned performance wise.Sometimes I wish that Xbox takes a leaf out of Sony's book and doesn't answer anyone's questions ever.
I was talking about how fanboys took that phrase. Xbox got a ton of crap from sony fans for not "believing in generations" like sony, because xbox was early saying their first party games would be cross gen. I was mainly talking about the fandoms emphasis on "believing in generations", after that statement. Now its shifted to the series s ruining the generation.You believe in spreading fud.
Didn't sx use xb one versions of games?Fuck. I feel like Xbox lives in an alternate reality.
Nice mid gen refresh that has been since day one performing worse than the base model of the competition.
Yep, believe it or not, the thought did cross my mind when I first heard there were 2 boxes coming this gen.Isn't that what many of us also said in 2020 ?
On what planet would a devout PC player be tempted? Can this PS5 Pro play the Steam library they have likely built up? How well does it do with PC exclusives? Why get a PS5 Pro and not just spend that (likely) $599 on a 5070 GPU upgrade?Lol! Alex is so full of shit! The only reason he hates the idea of a PS5 Pro is because he knows the hardware would further chip away at some of the benefits of PC vs console (at least in short term) and become a compelling option for even the most devout PC players.
I thought pc hardware demand kept dropping recentlyOn what planet would a devout PC player be tempted? Can this PS5 Pro play the Steam library they have likely built up? How well does it do with PC exclusives? Why get a PS5 Pro and not just spend that (likely) $599 on a 5070 GPU upgrade?
The only thing it would do is shift the needle on price/performance again, but that doesn't seem to impact the PC market that much. PS5/XSX launched and the PC market saw absolutely no dip and just kept growing.
That this....still....has to be explained is fucking mind boggling.You know the believe in generations was taken out context. Added the context here.

I only remember 9TF RDNA 1.5.Isn't that what many of us also said in 2020 ?
Your tag is priceless mateThat this....still....has to be explained is fucking mind boggling.
I know Phil just was asked about this, and he avoided a definitive answer to a Pro machine (I don't believe him saying "not right now" is very definitive).The statement John is paraphrasing was originally made in the context of a global chip shortage. We can only speculate if the situation has now changed.
Xbox can only release a Series X Pro if they actually abandon either Series S or X.Even if Microsoft was already finishing work on Xbox Series X Pro, Spencer would not tell anybody from public. He is not stupid especially since he has a game coming that could be a true system seller.
Even Sony is keeping it hush about that new revision of PS5 without disc drive and that console is supposed to be out in September according to Henderson because they have stock of old PS5 consoles to sell.
I have no doubt that if Sony has PS5 Pro in the works Microsoft would have to respond whether they like it or not.
Why would 3 SKUs scare away third party developers? They already work with multiple configurations on PC.Xbox can only release a Series X Pro if they actually abandon either Series S or X.
Actually, I can imagine a world where they just keep the S but the Series X itself is discontinued. Because I can't imagine a world where Xbox would seriously sustain 3 SKUs and scare away third party developers.

Once again, here is an example of "telling me you never play on PC" without tell me you never play on PC.Why would 3 SKUs scare away third party developers? They already work with multiple configurations on PC.
Yup. And the relief that they had abandoned last gen while PlayStation was still doing crossgen and how it would take advantage of next gen features and push graphics. Redfall, starfield and forza are the heavy hitters so far...Like 60fps. Stop mattering to the chest pumpers on here and Twitter as well.
both can be saidAre these dudes really talking about how we dont need pro consoles and how starfield being 30fps is ok in the same video?![]()
