Runs better on PS5 vs Series x from what i've seen.

Deathdeliverer822d ago

After watching both I will say they are virtually identical. Even the pop in on the section where he runs through the street is in the exact same spot. HOWEVER, that is also the only place where a difference shows. The section starts with a hard dip on Series X, followed by a quick 1-2 fps loss that’s quickly recovered. On PS5 it was a steady 60 the whole time. In the infamous car chase FPS killer section the PS5 seemed to drop a liiiiiittle less.
So yeah, according to this you’d be right, but man it’s mostly the exact same. Glad this person put like for like sections.

@Combinator, which games?

I would recommend taking a look at this link below. Far from being ‘FAR more games than not’

@HardKnock

That list seems to pretty much prove out "equal or better in more games than not", if nothing else.

29 games total.
--3 split, with each having 1 advantage.
--8 listed as "no significant difference"
--10 with overall PS5 advantage
--8 with overall Xbox advantage

So Xbox has 8+8+3 = 19 titles where it is either the same, equal to, or better than PS5
PS5 has 10+3+8 = 21 titles where it is either the same, equal to, or better than Xbox.

21/29 titles is far more titles than not where PS5 is equivalent or better than Series X. I mean, it is still kind of silly how much of a deal we make out of these differences - they are generally very minor differences either way the scale tips.

HardKnockKid24822d ago

@combinator what you DID say was misleading which is why I provided the graphic. If your point is that they perform similarly most of the time in far more games than not, then that by itself would be accurate, but when you toss in ‘OR BETTER’, your point becomes generalized to the point where it’s misleading. Truth is, there are games that perform better on PS5, and there are games that perform better on Series X. NEITHER CONSOLE is blowing the other out of the water.

HardKnockKid24822d ago

Lol ok man, I said what I said. If you disagree good for you. Have a great night.

S2Killinit822d ago

I think performance being sliightly better on the PS5 is less relevant. The Dualsense is the real difference maker as it actually adds so much to the experience.

Atticus_finch822d ago

Keep in mind PS5 starts at $100 less than Xsx. So PS5 is easily better.

I hope you saw the disclaimer below that list:

" summarized and simplified by @BirkinWill (may contain mistakes/bias)"

Well... reliable :D I'm not saying it's not true, it could be exactly like that for what i care but when you link something it's better if you check first ;)

It's a game by game basis on ps5 or series x running games better. A very small advantage maybe for PS5 for Cyberpunk..a very substantial large advantage for Series X over PS5 on King of Fighters XV. It's a game by game basis

Deathdeliverer822d ago

KOF is substantially better on Xbox how exactly? If you’re talking about the input delay that is imperceptible and a controller signal difference, not a system difference. That can be made better through fine tuning. Totally different from graphics and running games. That comment was pretty funny to see. If you are saying it’s substantially better in another area please put the link.

autobotdan822d ago

It's a very huge difference of input delay in favor of xbox series consoles over both Playstation 4 &5 consoles. Deathdeliverer your comment is very cute and funny

gamer7804822d ago

I was expecting more out of all of the next gen consoles on this. Oh think cdpr dug themselves a performance hole that’s hard to dig out of

asapas8822d ago (Edited 822d ago )

Runs better on PC. Even the fact that PC has many more NPCs walking and existing around the player, says it all

Viljong822d ago

I have series x and ps5 and the games i have for both systems are higher resolution on series x and run Much better. Becouse xbox support vrr and is in 120hz mode allways its much more responsive. Game doesnt have to run 120fps to take advance of 120hz mode. You know rift apart 120hz mode with 40fps is much better than the og 30fps mode.Talk about crysis remasters series x is much cleaner picture. Dying light 2 run about 90+fps average in 120hz fps vrr mode when ps5 is 60hz and 60fps. Becouse it doesnt even support vrr year 2022. Its obvious series x is the more powerfull system. Cyberpunk looks better on series x aswell having higher dynamic resolution. Far cry 6 is cleaner on seriex x too. Xbox is the better machine while ps5 have the exclusives. I buy every multiplat on series x becouse it perform little better and have dolby atmos support giving 7.1 pcm surround without avr passthrough, just eArc works

Jin_Sakai822d ago (Edited 822d ago )

“Runs better on PS5 vs Series x from what i've seen.“

I have both the PS5 and Series X version and played quit a bit of each. The PS5 version has better framerate while the Series X I’d say looks a bit sharper. If I had to choose one I’d got with the PS5 version.

neutralgamer1992822d ago

Just wait for patch 2.0 or even later. This should be just the starting point for next generation native versions. Now build on the foundation

franwex822d ago

Im glad you guys are pausing the game and zooming, and counting frames to figure out which system is better. Seriously if that’s what one has to do, then it doesn’t really matter which system this game will make you buy.

Except that this game should not be a reason to buy a next Gen system.

Anyway, maybe I’ll fire it up again on my basic xbone. *groans*

Their raytracing mode is bullshit, virtually indistinguishable from the performance mode. Doesn't give me high hopes for the witcher 3 upgrade.

Witcher 3 is an old game that, in theory, should be much easier to do the works on. Cyberpunk is a bit more complicated.

LucasRuinedChildhood822d ago

A different studio is handling The Witcher 3 port (Saber Interactive).

cluclap822d ago

I actually saw a noticeable difference. It also changes LOD as well.

Soulrakk822d ago

All things considered, The DualSense is the difference-maker here. It's one of the best implementations I've seen & felt. They really did a great job on the next-gen patch for both consoles.

babadivad822d ago

I bought this on Xbox before the next gen systems launched. What difference does the DualSense make in this game? Only games I have on both consoles is Control. While Dualsense was cool, it made my shots less accurate. I just finished the game on the XSX.

What makes this game so different?

DeadManMMX822d ago (Edited 822d ago )

Just played the opening 30 minutes on ps5 since I plan to Platinum it. Just after coming down from the radio tower I hopped in the car and drove back to town to see if I could talk to some NPC’s. I got out and walked over to an NPC near the edge of town who looked like he was cooking food on a grill. I walk around in front of him and immediately clip through him and the grill and rubber band all the way back to the top of the radio tower outside town then clip through the tower and fall to my death. Amazing and I recorded it for posterity. I waited over a year and this stuff is still happening lol. It’s ok though I’m playing it now I will just save often I’m enjoying it so far.

Crows90822d ago

Oh....umm ...you found an Easter egg!!!

Taero822d ago

Lol, I managed to get the infamous T pose; went into the milsim training mode and the enemies were spawning in as T poses, when they moved then dropped back into regular animations but the section where you defeat 3 enemies had them T Posing in through the open doors before correcting. Wish I'd remembered to record it :(

franwex822d ago

Lol. A bad game is still bad!

The ps5 Version is its own application, so maybe one can platinum again, right? That’s kinda nice.

DazaMc822d ago

Still the same empty city, I was expecting the current gen versions to be teaming with life.

Zhipp822d ago

From the looks of things they more than trippled the number of NPCs in most scenes over the last gen version. Just how many people did you expect to be running around everywhere?

Taero822d ago

Wow, I was actually just thinking that things were looking pretty hectic and I was having to thread my way around people. Definitely didn't feel empty.

1nsomniac822d ago (Edited 822d ago )

I can confirm the PS5 version now pretty much matches the pc version. At least pre 1.5. I haven’t loaded up my pc version with the new update to see if it’s increased on there too.

ufo8mycat822d ago

The PS5 version doesn’t even come close to the PC version, unless you have set the PC version to run at lowest settings.

Cyberpunk 2077 Director On 95% Positive Steam Rating: "Never Thought I'd See It"

Cyberpunk 2077 has come a long way from being one of the worst games on the planet to being one of the best ones.

DustMan4d ago

I shelved it after a few hours in game at launch, glad I didn't refund it. One of the few games I've actually completed in the last year, and after finishing the campaigns I wanted to just jump back in from the start. They pulled a No Mans Sky and finished one of the best FPS in the last few years.

Games That Were Bad on Release, But Are Now Great

BLG writes, "Some of the most popular games have had a rough start, with some of them being downright unplayable.

Despite that, developers have managed to turn it around for them and make their game worth playing. Here are some games that had a rough start but were pretty great."

Good list..hoped to see Street Fighter 5 there..and it is.

Vits15d ago (Edited 15d ago )

Sea of Thieves... I'm not disagreeing that the game has improved in terms of content. But I feel that the most significant change between now and its release is actually the public perception. Nowadays, most people are aware that the game is a multiplayer PvP-focused experience first and foremost, and not "Black Flag made by Rare". Consequently, people dismissing the whole experience because the single-player aspect is lacking or the story is plain are much less common.

darthv7215d ago

Several years ago, i submitted an idea to Rare that would change up the mechanics of battling opponents in the game. whereby if you died in battle, you turned into a skeleton warrior and had to fight your way back to the land of the living. It was an interesting twist on respawning and would allow the player to experience both sides of a battle.

I keep hoping to see something like that get added to the game.

Kaii15d ago

They consider FO 76 & ME Andromeda to be great now 🤭

anast15d ago

Every game in the last 2 decades...

INMATEofARKHAM15d ago

It's sad that this quick retort is more often than not true... The industry's acceptance of release and patch has gone too far.

gunnerforlife15d ago

Days gone! By the end of the game I couldn't drop it down! I went around so many hours killing zombies! It was addictive by the end.

S2Killinit15d ago

That game was just plain good game. It didnt improve, it was just good.

gunnerforlife15d ago

I don't know, I got it abit late, and struggled for a few days, and then all of a sudden it just got good!!

Well they are using unreal engine now thanks to there work culture and horrific job on making cyberpunk so for the future no impact.

But it will be interesting to see what mods will be made

just_looken27d ago

7 disagrees shows how many look at one dlc that had a rip off fight from ghost in the shell and goes wow what a goat team i love cdpr while ignoring that they only made 2 games that were good witcher 2/3 in 20yrs.

But its a new world we want a criminal that support's legal murder as president/support shoplifting love toxic work environments and have a mass casualty event every other day.

GhostMirror27d ago

I’ll admit I didn’t play it at launch, but Cyberpunk 2077 is a really good game now.

And who the hell knows what you’re even going on about in your second paragraph here.

EazyC28d ago

Wait a min...I swear to god CP2077's source code got leaked before. CDPR needs to stop using "password123" for all their accounts 😅

just_looken27d ago

Na its hundreds ex employees no doubt just getting there revenge.

Profchaos27d ago (Edited 27d ago )

This is the same leak the threat actors have been trying to sell the source code after cd project didn't pay the ransom.

They didn't manage to sell the source code to any company largely because it would be unethical for say EA to buy it so the threat actors failed to find a buyer.

After they failed to make any money they went through with their threat of simply giving it away.
