It's kinda crazy how PS5 is building its image as the stronger system. There have been so many fanboys worried about PS5 holding next gen back, and now other fanboys could (wrongly) claim the same thing about Series X.
I haven't seen the narrative change per se, but people are wondering what's going on.  Not quite at the concern point yet, I don't think.

Still it's crazy to see.  Basically starting off this gen with the opposite performance expected.

1. the difference between ps5 and series x is a smaller % then last gen

2. ps5 is optimized for 1 platform while xbox is trying to cross 3 platforms.  

i dunno that i though ps5 was going to beat series x in these comparisions but i never believed the performance would be significantly different.  which for the record,.. series x is doing just fine.  these performance differences are not something i could spot during gameplay.

...but i think their might be something to this "fast and narrow thing".  in some ways i'm not even sure it's about having more power so much as consistent power.  it's probably easier to optimize for a platform that is very consistent compared to one that can have big changes.

the real loser is series x and ps5.  series s is going to drag the entire generation down.
I don't think it'll hold things back too badly. My expectation is that for the few games that push things forward, companies will skip S if it sells poorly or make "dedicated" versions with modified components. Maybe Series S will have less npcs, that sort of thing.

Haven't watched yet.

PS5: slightly better in 120 fps mode.  
XSX: slightly better in RT/60 fps mode.  

Interesting.

As you can see here the XSS mode is basically the same as the XSX with a lower resolution, just like promised. /s

Yeah the Series S is the real loser in all these. Its the start of the gen and mostly cross gen games and its already struggling and not meeting its promise. Next gen only games are gonna be pretty ugly for it.

Wow. Who would have thought a 4tf machine would struggle to do next gen performance. And this is with these games being cross gen. 2022 and onwards series S is gonna struggle big time.

I said it a billion times. But imagine a 4tf machine in 2026 or 2027, its underpowered. The ps5 and xsx will be underpowered by then, imagine the series S.

PS5 vs. Xbox Series X: why is the PS5 outperforming the next-gen Xbox? - The Verge
i had though about posting that but then i read the article and realised it doesn't say anything.   clickbait as far as i'm concerned.

It has a quote from Microsoft.

"We are aware of performance issues in a handful of optimized titles on Xbox Series X|S and are actively working with our partners to identify and resolve the issues to ensure an optimal experience," says a Microsoft spokesperson in a statement to The Verge. "As we begin a new console generation, our partners are just now scratching the surface of what next-gen consoles can do and minor bug fixes are expected as they learn how to take full advantage of our new platform. We are eager to continue working with developers to further explore the capability of Xbox Series X|S in the future."


Outside of that, yeah it's mostly just a recap of internet gossip. Doesn't fully match my understanding of the situation, but it's kinda close enough. Series X=~PS5 outside of a few minor bugs that will be less common going forward.

i agree that  X ~= ps5.   i'm certain we'll continue to see differences when measured by DF but i'm also certain that the differences are too small for me to be able to identify them during gameplay.  

series s however is a festering pile of dog poo already.   i don't even want to venture how bad it will be in 5 years.

DF Watchdog Legion PS5, Series X/S comparison.
PS5 and X basically the same with PS5 having faster loading times. The S image quality not great, has RT but lower quality that the PS5 and X and performs at around 900p.

SWORDF1SH

Assassin's Creed patched to solve Series X performance issues. Now bottoms out at a lower resolution than PS5 to run the same. Series S now has a performance mode that runs at 60fps but has to run at 720p to hit the framerate.

Well I guess that's better but didn't change the power differential. Series S is woeful tbh

So the series X still performs worse its just not in framerate now.

So the series X still performs worse its just not in framerate now.

On par with PS5 on framerate but had to drop to a lower resolution than PS5 to achieve it. Before it could only bottom out at 1440p but that wasn't enough to stop screen tearing and framerate dips. The patch allows it to go below 1440p.
