It's not a bad idea. A slim is due in a year or so, maybe less. Ignore all these dummy early adopters that say there won't be a slim. Of course there will be a slim model. And a Pro model. They've already proven they can sell slims and mid-gen upgrades. So why would they not capitalize on that?

Because the PS4 had a notoriously weak CPU the day it came out. The PS5 doesn't, and it is a much more balanced console. The mid-gen refresh was also partially because of 4K TVs going mainstream and the base consoles being far too underpowered to take advantage. There's no such shift in screen tech this time around.
"Dummy" indeed.

So the mid-gen upgrade was only partially because of 4k according to you...what was the other part?
Edit: Interestingly enough, THIS is making the rounds today...

Ps5 is still considerably weak compared to the series X so they could still benefit by making a newer smaller more powerful ps5.

>Considerably weak
LOL, care to back that up with proof? Pretty much every video Digital Foundry and NX Gamer have done have shown them to be more or less equal, with the PS5 slightly more performant.

Just the facts bud, you can look up the specs for yourself if your interested, the numbers don't lie 👍
FunkinDonutzz t1_iss2qpf wrote
Ah, so you're one of those people that think having a higher teraflop number makes it more powerful? You also made it out like there's a massive difference in spec?
If it's "just the facts" then you're more than welcome to provide proof of those facts like I asked... what's that, you can't?
blazinlow86 t1_ist059h wrote
Yes I believe in facts 👍
FunkinDonutzz t1_istbad4 wrote
You've yet to show any concrete proof of these "facts". Let's look at the performance metrics on Digital Foundry and NX Gamer for some "facts" 👍
blazinlow86 t1_istbldx wrote
And as I already said you can do Google the PS5 specs versus the Xbox series X specs and see for yourself. It's no secret that the series X is considerably more powerful than the PS5. The numbers don't lie 👍
FunkinDonutzz t1_istcdyy wrote
For one, it's not "considerably" more powerful. You're also ignoring the fact that the PS5 is more performant in some ways - but I get the impression you're the type of person that sees one bigger number and automatically assumes it's better because you don't actually understand shit.
And also ignoring the fact that the games usually perform better on PS5 - again, show me real world evidence that the Series X is "conSidErabLY moRe poWEfuL". Again - you can't, because it isn't.

Just the facts bud, there there if you wanna see them 👍👍
FunkinDonutzz t1_istdyvm wrote
I do. Now, provide sources for your facts, I'll wait 👍👍
blazinlow86 t1_isteqld wrote
Just a google search away bud 👍👍
FunkinDonutzz t1_istg4vl wrote
Sounds like you can't provide proof of these claims, and you know it.
But for the LOLs, I did Google it, and the PS5 comes out on top.
Any more self-owns today? 👍👍

No reason for me to prove a well known fact to a random on the internet. The numbers are there, up to you if you want to see them 👍👍

You too lol 👍👍

I think I’ll hang out a while longer…. Maybe wait into the new year and decide then. I haven’t had a console in years but I’m eager to get one now.
