Having listened to the conversation, it’s just so ill informed.
Xbox’s biggest problem with another model isn’t the hardware itself, it’s having 3 very different specs on the market. It’s 2023 and their userbase isn’t exactly huge to be polite, they are already splitting between S and X, which aims at different audiences and burdens developers with a low spec machine. You want to increase that to 3? Developers might not love it and the audience might become confused. What can they do? Replace the Series X with the XX, but that’s its own can of worms, because then you are telling devs to take advantage of hardware they don’t sell anymore.
Sony has every incentive to come out with a PS5 pro and lean HARD on RT performance. From a business perspective it makes total sense too because their audience isn’t already split by performance specs, and they will probably be closing in on 70 million consoles by then. And then there’s VR.
I don’t even know how to address DF anymore, it’s just bad take central.
