"Can't you just give it to me now, I pinky promise I won't plug it in until Tuesday."Just in the car. From just pre paying my series X.
It was torture watching my console being ticketed up for next week
now for the 3 hour journey back up (after a well deserved KFC first though)

Heard the 5th or the 8th of November but I'm not 100% sure.
Surprised how little S gaming info there is yet
Checked the DF videos benchmark ones on X and they are a month ish old now
Be interested to see if the One X can render some games better than the new S - we shall see. I think the One X GPU has more grunt than people give it credit for

There is an NDA until the 5th.
Does seem odd to me the NDA is that close to launch.
I saw someone mention this Thursday, yes. I can't find any confirmation on that. I guess that's part of the NDA too!
I thought that too
Well there's a huge lack of PS5 info compared to Series X right now.
DF said in one of their recent videos regarding PS5 that "there will be some surprises", so assuming that's performance related vs the X.

It's been 2 very different information releases from MS and Sony, would love to be a fly on the wall of their marketing teams!
And yeah, the 'surprises'... I have a feeling it's load times, I think they will be tiny to non existent on the PS5. We've already seen MM booting into a game from cold in less than 10 seconds. Could be something completely different though.

I don't know, they mentioned in a live stream at the start of October, after talking to developers, John said "I think people are going to be surprised (about the PS5), and in a good way' - this was way before they had any hands on with either machine, so either massive performance (but they couldn't have compared this to the SX at the time) or one or 2 'special' features.
We'll know in the next few days!!
Anyway, this is getting more PS related, I know this is the SX thread!
A bit of healthy competition is good for all of us though, results in better machines.
He said it ("really surprised") again after their play and discussion of the controller with AstroBot - from last week.
Anyway yeah we'll know soon enough!

Digital Foundry vid on Gears 5 updates.
looking good although it’s a great looking game on x anyway.
