It doesn’t take a scientist to know how you would be acting if it were an Xbox exclusive.
Someone who gets it!
Yes, it IS about compression. That's how data works, on any medium. Of course the disc won't house the FULL game regardless of the console it's on, but data will still be compressed on it and the larger the disc, the more that can be compressed, reducing the need for multiple.
PS5 Pro is irrelevant.
So, to the rest of the post... if he is buying the game on Xbox, and Microsoft made a claim to discs and/or disc space, and he feels it was untrue based on what's happening here, then I don't see the issue.
Um, data is compressed to fit on storage medium. That's.....always how it's worked. No, I'm not talking about Kraken. Audio files, as an example, are compressed to fit more of it (data) on a medium.
PS5 is in a better position for this IF they can (and want to) compress said data further (this is how the 360 vs PS3 worked for multiplats and one of the things Sony was praised for during that era). The system still works with the disc to compress the data as it is...
Refute his point instead of pivoting to Sony.
What did he say in regard to physical media and Microsoft that was wrong?
PS5 is better at compression than the Xbox, so it shouldn’t ship that.
Only the Forbidden West DLC was a cause of two discs and even that was just 121GB total.
Yeah, those Orchard alts have been working double time since the holiday period started.
Yeah, thanks to PlayStation. Good look at Black Ops 6’s numbers as an example! 😉
It is quite dramatic, yes.
So far, the cutscenes look entertaining anyway! If done properly, it should be great!

Uh, huh?
Um, the price is 50% off. The bigger story would be if it WASN'T doing anything.
Another alt.
No, there was a time when I thought you had grown to neutrality. I'll give you that. But, of late, you've shown that you just aren't the bipartisan happy-go-lucky you claim to be. Sure, you defend PlayStation every now and then, but it's never to the degree of Xbox and you've never been so aggressive when defending it either. I speak up when I see you being hypocritical. Someone accused you of being mad. What did you do? Prove him right! There are quite a few people on her...
@TripleAAARating
Exactly.
You are NOT more neutral than most here. I don't care what you tell yourself. You have a preference and the past few weeks is a clear indication of that. And you had absolutely no reason to say what you said to Einhander. Don't try to claim neutrality when your behavior says otherwise, especially calling people "parrots" and the like. That is exactly the type of aggression that someone would show when they offer a tainted view of things and someone neutral would have had no ...
@Neonridr
I get that you're trying to somehow have an issue here where there shouldn't be one, but respectfully, who cares?
@Einhander1972
There does seem to be some needless aggression in the air. The Pro has really ruffled feathers, and while I get why, it’s just something you have to deal with. A certain “neutral” someone in here now slings insults when questioned. Quite the turnaround from just a few years ago.
For the rest of us who actually bought the thing, it’s a fantastic piece of kit. Literally every game I’ve tried on it is a clear step above its PS5 counterparts an...
Yep, should make for some nice improvements overall!
Key being right here: The Matrix Awakens Unreal Engine 5 demo runs considerably better on the newly released system than on the base system without a dedicated patch that would allow the demo to take full advantage of the PS5 Pro's power and features.
Really. You’d be doing your usual Xbox Hula dance if it was exclusive to that platform. EVERYONE knows this about you!
And my pants are on just fine, unlike the tight, green ones you wear.
