- Xbox Series X
- 12 Teraflops? Expansion cards are Seagate 1 TB SDD (no price on those). A huge fan at the top. Pause multiple games at once, faster loading. Saw gameplay of Gears 5 have to be honest didn’t look much different. https://www.engadget.com/2020/03/16/microsoft-xbox-series-x-hardware-specs
- PS5
-
- Custom-built SSD that greatly reduces loading and install times. SSD will help developers. PS4 backward compatible but they mentioned it will play the top 100 PS4 games only at launch. 3D audio (what?) PS5 has 10.28 Teraflops, so the flop wars have begun.
