    Um… Of course it would be. Why wouldn’t it be? It’s not going to be less powerful than the current systems. What a stupid headline.

      It’s like when Apple says iPhone n is the fastest iPhone ever created at their announcement event. I would certainly hope so.

      It’s not going to be less powerful than the current systems.

      It’s not like the headline implies that it could or should be less powerful. It’s a simple headline that conveys a simple message that a regular reader might find worth clicking.

    I mean duh?

    That said, I think the bigger question is how are consoles going to respond to the vastly growing cost of GPUs and power consumption.

      600EUR console vs 2000-3000EUR PC. I get it, PC gives you more options what to do and what to play, but getting a console is not waste of money in my books.

          First of all, who are you to decide what I need and what I don’t need? Secondly, okay, 1500-2000 EUR for a mid-range PC. Even the lower boundary is 2.5 times more expensive than PS5. With Xbox the difference is even bigger.
