It's definitely weird how weird people get about this, like they haven't played recent PC releases.

High res packs are entirely optional, DLC like content on PC. Xbone should treat it the same till the textures are on disk.

I am probably being hyperbolic here, but RDR2 on a 4K/HDR TV on Xbox One X, is maybe the most beautiful looking game to date right now? At least until some other AAA title comes out in the 3 month or whatever. Or Cyberpunk 2077.

Both Origins and odyssey look fantastic on the X. It will be interesting what a non-great recession grade cpu/gpu will do next gen.

While you're probably right, it's worth reminding people not to buy any nVME drives for their PlayStation until Sony releases their testing information. These consoles need sustained speeds and sometimes consumer-level drives struggle with that plus consumer drives need a certain amount of headroom above the PS5 spec to be usable.

The dirty secret with nvme drives: throttling because they're rarely binned for high temp usage.

The way around this is specifically getting the drive in the path of airflow, right?

Single sided nvme (only few are), a heatsink (those are stickers, not copper), and sitting in the way of airflow are all things I can think of that would be needed. I am really itching for someone to crack a PS5 up because its apparently all heatsink and airflow and we'll know if they're using a single or dual sided one to get 5.5+gb/sec.

Oh yeah, apparently it was a 20:1 pre-order ratio between the Series X and Series S. Glad next gen is getting hosed by like 12 people.

I said it before that the PS4\Xbox were designed during a recession and it showed then. S is truly a product of that anticipation hit. The financial state of people are far more perilous than american are admitting to themselves and even going out on a limb for a S with the all in package is probably those 12 people most extravagant purchase of the year even if its just 25 dollars a month.

I'm sure S will eventually disappear and be replaced by some sort of V tier to finally bring some type of VR to xbox. Without a drive, naturally.
