What am I looking for here? Like I see 1 or two wins for PS3 over 360 (GTA5 sold more on PS3, notably) ...but overall, seems to me like 360 sold a lot more units of the most successful games:

No man's sky got a "complete pass"? No-one complained about fallout bugs and poor graphics? That's some patchy memory you got there

Yeah I didn't make it much further. Those motion controls were awful. It felt really clunky to play.

Far out, well I stand corrected. I'm not a rage gamer or anything like that but I'm going to have to assume on that that there must be something I've been doing to these poor joysticks that's been giving them more grief than you. Something environmental/lack of
care related perhaps.

PS-Gamer-1986: Are you for real? Through all those generations, never have your analog sticks started to drift on any of your controllers? Never have they started looking up/down/whatever? I seriously find that hard to believe but perhaps it's not as inevitable as the durability of tiny rubbing plastic parts and small springs would have me assume.

I reckon I've had at least 6 on the OG xbox and 360 controllers alone (probably my most played consoles), more if I coun...

My apologies, it seemed to me like you were were suggesting that because you've never experienced it that it's not really a problem, or evidence that what's been examined in this teardown isn't true (hence why I gave my counter example).

Joystick drift is essentially inevitable given enough wear. There will also be outside factors as to how long that might take, you might even make it a whole generation if you're lucky. They're still a lot better tha...

"I've owned all those controllers and never once experienced "drift"."
perhaps though your sample group of one doesn't accurately reflect its overall impact. I've experienced drift on every controller I've ever absolutely hammered (however not the ones mentioned, guess I don't game as much as I used to, or controllers have got better at handling it). I don't, however, have that much of an issue with it. It's to be expected (I wouldn'...

Haha yeah, run through a thesaurus or back and forth through google translate or something. Rather hilariously "business model" in one quote has become "enterprise mannequin" in this article.

RAM isn't much of an issue so long as assets are smaller for the weaker console, being linear and single player has nothing to do with it. In fact the GPU being "an issue" for 4A is clearly because they're such a graphical fidelity driven company. Primary source of RAM usage is going to be on asset loading and streaming. Scale back those assets for the less meaty GPU and you're laughing. They've kept the CPU quite meaty and a fast SSD so games are still going to enjo...

I legitimately can't understand how people enjoy GTA online. I've tried many times and it's always been a nightmare. Like, the concept is great and it's hard to imagine how it could be screwed up, but it's completely screwed at every fundamental level.

I wish you good luck with your hope for 60fps with ray tracing at any decent resolution on next gen games.

Or any new content that was aimed at single player really. But yeah another one set in the 80s please

I think this is going to be a fundamental misunderstanding about this generation in general, particularly in this transitional period. Because the architecture between these 2 generations is far more compatible than it's ever been in previous generations there's the potential to see large improvements between hardware whilst still running the same code, much like we see on PC.

But then also it seems like a bunch of people are expecting every remaster/rerelease to be...

SteamVR please! As much as I'd like an excuse to use my PSVR headset I'd way rather an excuse to make use of my far more powerful PC hardware

I reckon people in this comment section are putting more thought into this spec sheet than EA probably did. I reckon it'll run just fine on most peoples computers

Definite buy for me. Even just for the first one (and I already own it on PC and 360). I want to play it again and this is likely to be the best way to play it so I've been holding out for it. Don't really care about whatever it's supposed to be optimized for.

The game story etc is good though. It just requires some more spit shine to make amazing: obviously some bug fixes (most of the ones I've noticed have been patched) and improvements to some systems that weren't properly implemented. Things that you can clearly see ways of fixing. No Man's Sky required most of the game to to added.

there's your problem.

Alder Lake will have Gen4 PCIe

edit: my mistake. Rocket Lake will have Gen4, Alder Lake will indeed have Gen5. Not much to go on for Alder Lake yet, other than supposedly it wont be basically the same CPU they've been rehashing for the last 9 or so generations.

the PS5 is not bottlenecked in the slightest by PCIe gen4. It's SSD is plenty fast enough. Besides meaningless bragging rights PCIe gen 5 isn't going to mean squat to PC gaming for a long time. Hell, the huge performance difference between SATA and a gen 4 NVMe equates to next to nothing in terms of gaming performance at the moment. a second or two shaved off loading screens here and there. Whoopdy do. absolutely nothing on the very real and tangible jump from mechanical drives to SSD...
