Yeah, it's pretty dumb.

Imagine them doing this on PS5. We have a state of the art SSD which can load games almost instantaneously but we slowed down the loading times just so you can read tips

 

Cerny will be like

 

This load screen is the main source of story in soulsborne games but Cerny only thinks from Knack perspective.

 Full quote : "I don't know if we can talk about this but, we have the Series X here and the Series X is hot, it is hot. It makes 0 noise but on the other hand it gives off heat, it's violent. I mean it's violent... yeah, yeah it's violent. You can warm up thanks to the Series X, clearly. From a sound point of view it's good but from a heat point of view, it's something." 

 

 

Other one adds : "It will send out air, a small air diffuser." 

 

Interesting note : "yeah, we're not allowed to show new generation games, disappointing."

Arre atleast you're planning to get it through mule.

Imagine the type who doesn't have a mule.

and will pay 80k-1 Lakh to get le rare low stock PS5 from grey market

 

That person is better off importing directly. Will probably be cheaper even after import duty.

Fascinating! So MS made a room heater that looks like a refrigerator?

That does not bode well for longevity.

If it's true then the 12 Tf will be useless since it'll get throttled all the time.

As long as its throwing all that heat out, it should be ok.

Except we live in a place where there is already plenty of heat out 

Who knows the XSX may actually blow out cooler air than what's outside

As has already been mentioned, if they want players to read what's in the loading screens, they can always add a button prompt to proceed. Artificially increasing loading times for this purpose is just dumb.

If this heat thing is true, it removes any possibility of keeping the console in a closed entertainment unit or shelf rack. Will have to be on a table top with nothing covering it. I'm guessing PS5 will be the same.

 

 

PS5's size makes sure it has to be kept it in the open lol

[quixote_1989]

At this point I wanna ask MS and Sony to shove the XSX and PS5 up each other’s arse (poor MS), and just go for a PC.

 

I won’t actually do it of course, but I like to think I would.

Reports Suggest Xbox Series X Is Quieter But Runs Hot

“I don’t know if we can talk about this but, we have the Series X here and the Series X is hot, it is hot. It makes 0 noise but on the other hand, it gives off heat, it’s violent. I mean it’s violent… yeah, yeah it’s violent. You can warm up thanks to the Series X, clearly. From a sound point of view, it’s good but from a heat point of view, it’s something,” says one of the crew members for LeStream Web TV.

 

Quote

The second case is from BeastCast (around 28:45 mark) featuring the crew from GiantBomb. During the podcast, Jeff Bakkalar mentions the same thing when he talks about his experience with the Xbox Series X. He mentions how the expansion drive can get really hot even in the Standby mode. He also talks about the console blowing exhaust air even in the Standby mode

Looks like RRoD will also be backwards compatible with series X.
