Eurogamer has put together an article that squashes those that claim the Xbox Series S is not a next gen console. What say you fellow SW friends? For those of you that have a Series S, are you happy with your next gen console? Xbox Series S vs PlayStation 4 Pro - the four teraflop face-off Comparable GPU power but a generation apart - and there's only one winner.https://www.eurogamer.net/digitalfoundry-2023-xbox-series-s-vs-playstation-4-pro-the-four-teraflop-face-offIn conclusion:And that's for good reason. Netbook-class CPUs and slow mechanical storage have hamstrung last-generation consoles and fundamentally limit the capabilities of cross-gen games. Series S has the CPU and SSD grunt to hang with the premium current-gen consoles - systems like the PS4 Pro and Xbox One X do not. The graphics hardware between the Series S and last-gen machines isn't a world apart, but fixating on raw graphics compute is a mistake, it's just one aspect of a console design, and arguably the most scalable one. There's no doubt that developers may be challenged by its limitations, but cross-gen comparisons plus UE5 deployments like The Matrix Awakens and Fortnite prove that the machine is capable enough as we move away from this prolonged cross-gen transition period into the next era for gaming.
