NBA2k21 and COD take up 50% of PS5s HDD

[Tears of the Cows 1,206]

Damn, lol. 
 

 

 and Not a single option to expand the memory  

[Ike★ 2,906]

They'll take up 0 space on mine.

I think this is going to be an unavoidable caveat of next gen for all platforms (including PC). As more and more games include dedicated 4K textures, storage sizes are just going to continue getting bigger and bigger. We'll just have to get in the habit of deleting unused games & those we don't plan on firing up anytime soon.

Or you know.. If you’re on any other platform you can simply expand your storage

So because console plebs can't expand their storage, we can't either?

You will be able to, there just aren't any currently released SSDs fast enough for the spec

You can’t even store them on externals.

How many hermits have 2-3gb PCIe4.0 NVMe drives? Not a large amount, the average PC gamer is going to be in the same situation unless they want to drop >$400 on a single drive.

I have 3TB of SSD storage and 4TB of HDD storage... and I can move things back and forth as I please  

 

At least on Series X you can buy expansion cards and swap them like game carts.  On PS5 you literally have to power down the console and "install" a compatible drive

but you don’t have a pcie4 based drive which is closest to the architecture used by these consoles, so my point still stands

I don't need one  

 

And by the time I do need one.. I will have one... and can replace every drive with a PCIe 4 drive.. as I wish.

Yeah I guess you don’t need one because even if you did, the ps5 would still run circles around it when it comes to game loading times  

[Teh_Diplomat 2,054]

I've got a laptop the height of a quarter, with 1.5 TB of SSD space.

Once again, for the 3-5 games you can install at any one time.

yeah buts its clearly worth the trade off. Most people won’t even need to have more than 3-5 games installed at once.

I've got 1.5 TB in a laptop the height of a loonie; for desktops it's a non-issue apart from your Mobo's capabilities - point is you can do something about it; upgrade to a larger size, a faster drive, or just add another drive entirely.

 

I mean if the difference is 7 secs on PS5 vs 13 secs on a Gen4 NVMe, who really cares at hour 60 of the game? The point is you're no longer dealing with mechanical harddrives

Oh yea? We'll see about that when I have a 7GB/s drive and DirectStorage is on PC  

[TLHBO 2,160]

Looking at the main page of systemwars it seems both consoles suck.

[ChupacabraIII 134]

lmao why would you need nvme storage for gaming?

 

you stupid cuck lmao
