Back in the 7th and 8th gen days there was all this talk about on how Consoles are holding back games due to being less powerful than PC's. Well now it's the opposite. PC's are now holding back consoles.

The PS5 gpu is equivalent to the AMD RX 6700 non XT. Yet now if a PC game doesn't run on a GTX 1060 PC bros will fucking cry about the game being "unoptimized".
>>
According to steam hardware survey 2/3rds of PC gamers have hardware that's less powerful than a base PS5.
>>
>>729818040
This. Most games are still being designed for 3060 level hardware.
>>
>>729817940
consoles are still holding back PC gaming.
the game is written to run on 6 year old hardware. your console.

It's more about the fact that games now look worse than 10 years ago on a 1060. No one has a problem with high hardware requirements if the game justifies it by looking good.

lol. lmao.

>>729818040
I would believe that if a Base PS5 could run Photoshop.

>>729817940
compare Cyberpunk 2077 PC version vs console version.
compare Red Dead Redemption 2 PC version versus console version.
we can do this all day

2011/2012 everyone waited for next gen because a ~ 500$ PC could play Battlefield 3 in 1080P/60 while it ran and looked like shit on consoles.
>>
>>729818203
10 years ago everyone was playing at 1080p. Now everyone is playing at 4k. Of course games are not going to look as good at 4k on your decade old 1060.
>>
>>729818560
I mean yeah. I have an autistic list about console killer PC's. In 2012 (a year before PS4 and Xbone launch) you could for $303 build a gaming PC that would run games as good or better than a 360 or PS3 (and HDD versions of those cost $300)

That system used an AMD A10 5800K APU because by 2012 you could get better performance than a 360 from an APU.
>>
>>729818715
$120 AMD A10-5800K APU
$40 ECS A55F2-M3(1.0) FM2 MB
$35 G.Skill Sniper Series 8gb DDR3 2133mhz
$60 Samsung Spintpoint F4 320gb 7200rpm HDD
$16 Lite-On DVD Burner
$17 Corsair CX430 80 plus bronze PSU
$15 RAIDMAX Tornado ATX-238WU
$303 total. Success runs better than 360 with better specs and even future upgrade potential.

"everyone"

>>729818565
Except they don't look as good even on a 5090 because of all the upscaling.
>>
>>729819417
Yeah. My 1030 can run 1080p fine, but a 5090 needs fake frames and fake pixels to upscale from 144p just to get a buttery smooth 15fps.
>>
The baseline for console performance is the Switch. The baseline for "4K" console performance is the Series S. Capcom is putting AAA multiplats on the goddamn Switch 2. You are a gay nigger.
>>
>>729819527
Expect one thing with all those "unoptimized" games have in common is that they only have a PS5 and Xbos Series port. And that Series S isn't running 4k on those ports.
>>
>>729817940
you know there are about the same amount of people still playing on PS4 as there are on PS5 right now.
>>
>>729819660
Nothing is running 4K
>>
What can't a console do at this point?

inb4 have games

26 FPS at 144p is not playable, and I don't care how many times consolefags repeat it.

>>729818040
Have you ever done a Steam hardware survey? Most people with basic reading ability hit "No" so the majority of people who clicked yes are stupid. Stupid people have less money, and worse computers. Specifically the people who click yes to this stuff the most are Chinese users, who are terrified of refusing this sort of thing from government conditioning, who are broke.
