Prices are what everyone thought, date was more of a surprise but w/e, the show itself was weak. The one big first party game that's coming out with the PS5, spiderman sequel, is also coming to PS4, so, yay? No need to actually get a new system till next year it looks like.3 points -

Physical edition is the best value. You can resell games after you have finished them on Craigslist or eBay. You can't do that with the digital edition. I bought TLOU2 on release day, and sold it 2 weeks later for pretty much the same amount I paid for it sans taxes. Also physical games will have more sales and discounts from big box retail stores compared to the digital ones.3 points -
Introducing the newest PhD
NFT_QUEEN and one other reacted to Barney T. for a topic
Hi All, Just wanted to announce that I successfully defended my dissertation and am now a PhD in Nursing Education. Took 5 years of intense doctorate level to get it, but now I am in the world of health care research and new informatics technology. Still working in the same large level-one university hospital with all kinds of patients (including COVID-19 ones). Just wanted to share this milestone. 😊2 points -

I highly doubt you'll be able to connect your hard drive to play PS5 games, albeit I think it's possible for PS4 ones. No USB Hard drive is fast enough to deliver the right speeds for any of the consoles. Sony didn't support external hard drives for the PS4 generation. For the PS5 generation, they are supporting it for storage. On the Xbox side, they've always supported external hard drives and it's been super convenient, being able to move the hard drive from console to console. It's funny that Sony gamers used to make fun of external hard drives and now they have to use them. And I think this gen, all consoles will be using the same storage strategy. On my Xbox One X, I have a 500 GB external SSD as my primary drive that I run games from. I store all my games that I play all the time as well as the newest games. But I store all my games on my 10 TB external HDD. And so if there's a game I haven't played for awhile but have an itch for, I copy it over to my 500 GB drive to play. The reason why this strategy is so great is I don't have to erase games and redownload them (because they're so huge). And it also lets me play games while I move the 10 TB hard drive to a console in another room. the internal hard drive on my Xboxes are for storing apps like Netflix. And for my secondary consoles, I use the internal to play the game. My 10 TB is just a repository.2 points -

[Official] Xbox Series X & Series S Discussion
chaos mage reacted to George P for a topic
If these are concerns how do these developers manage to make a single PC game? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ There's nothing holding anything back, games scale, they scale better than most software out there. The two key parts of the system that would hold game development back in any meaningful way would be the CPU and the SSD or overall I/O speeds, RAM would be part of the mix but since you're targeting 1440p tops, you don't need as much VRAM. It's really no different from having a PC with the same CPU but two different types of graphics cards. You're going to run at minimum (or a little higher) on the S and at recommended on the X. Hell, the dev kits can switch between X and S profiles on the fly. I know you've played on the PC, even minor tweaks to things like shadow details, or fog details, or even draw distance, things you actually hardly notice when playing a game normally, can give you a nice boost in FPS. This is such a non-issue it's almost comical how this thing is even still talked about. The same arguments actually came up with both Sony and MS were going to release the PS4 Pro and One X, oh no how would devs manage to work on two different systems, the horror.1 point -

Why would they? They already have a more powerful console for the same price. And a budget friendlier version for those on a budget. Why call the S budget friendly? I really believe on a 1080 screen, you will notice slim to no difference between the X and the S series I have no intentions of buying a 4k TV for several years, unless my LED screen dies. By that time 4k will be old or cheap. 4k is already cheap and it’s hardly new!1 point -

Well, I can't say anything about that, but I guarantee you they don't scour neowin.net for suggestions from users. Besides, what proof do you have that they don't read the Fee.dback Hub? I can probably track down my twitter conversation when I left a similar snarky comment about a long standing windows bug. I provided the feedback link that I'd made 20 some odd comments. The comments were when I'd indicate that the problem still existed and what build that I used to keep track when I used "recreate my problem". I skipped reporting a few builds because I got busy, that particular feedback post is now up to 32 comments. The response on the twitter post was "they often fall through the cracks". He then had me create a brand new, exactly the same, feedback post and send him the link. After a few weeks, I replied back to it asking if he needed anything else..that day, my feedback was "added to a collection" with a Microsoft Response of "Thanks for the feeeback! We are investigating it.". It remains unfixed. That was 8 builds ago. I have several of those, and I file on every build It sucks that it's not getting attention. But I don't know what else I can do.

A private company making its own rules is Marxist?! Imagine that. I guess we should now abolish all private companies. A bit extreme but the only way to get rid of Marxism from all these corporations now, innit? I never said that, but if a company preaches freedom and equality (*put a Muslim woman wearing a hijab here* because it is the symbol of freedom and equality 🤷♂️) while the top CEOs of this company earns 100 times more than the average employee of the same company, then this company is a hypocrite. IMHO, the business equality must starts inside the business, and it is the main source of inequality. I'm not saying that everybody must earn the same, but the salary scale must be way fairer. McDonalds. Top executives earn over 3 million dollars, while the typical employee of McDonalds earns $20 mil per year. It means, that this person must work 100 years to earn the same than an executive, and I am excluding bonuses and many other pluses. But let's say that McDonald's decides to play fair, and put an African and a woman (and the woman is black and lesbian, i.e. Beetlejuice I am watching you) in some top seats. It changes nothing!. From businessinsider: "McDonald's paid its CEO almost 2,000 times as much as the average worker in 2019, with executive compensation topping $18 million" So, I was wrong. An average employee must work 2 millennials to earn then same than the top executives in a year. ps: And I repeat I don't think the CEO must earn the same but not x2000 times. I don't disagree with you, Brony. I think when companies preach messages, it's substance-less virtue signalling most of the time that they do to avoid having to do real work or make actual change. I say this from the left.1 point -
