DF: Hi-Fi Rush PS5>Xbox Series X

How did this even happen?!

Wow… isn’t XSX supposed to be more powerful??

It is more powerful. But Xbox seems to be trying harder on the PS5 ports. Poor Lems… I don’t even know what to say at this point.

ROFL where are those tool, Phil? WHERE ARE THEY, PHIL?

no trolling this is just unbelievable. No wonder MS wants to exit gaming, they're clueless in their own titles.

Talk about dropping the ball on their own platform.

"Xbox is the best place to play Hi Fi Rush".😂

While it is embarrassing for MS, especially since their console is 20% more powerful, I guess the logic is the PS5 version came out after and the developers saw that they could improve the shadow quality without any hit to performance.

The question is will the XSX get a patch for better shadows? they should...

Dude Jim Ryan's final day and he is absolutely wiping the floor with Xbox.

I mean, there was a year of extra development.

It's the very least they could do.

Yikes!

Nah! If that was the case Ghostwire Tokyo would not have released a year later running worse than the PS5.

PS5: The best place to play Xbox games on console

XSX can't even beat the PS5 basic wtf are you lems going to do when the Pro hits.

Excited for Elder Scrolls 6? Best way to experience Xbox exclusives is on the PS5. And after how Starfield bombed, you know that thing will be on the PS5 on day one lmao.

I feel like this is the "corporate wants you to find the difference between these two pictures" meme and they're the same picture.

Yes, I see the differences in the shadows, but c'mon.

good old rage bait, drama baby df.

gamers thinking their dev and a re not.

Yeah that seems like logical response, but using that same reasoning, tell me what happened with the year extra development time for the Ghost Wire Tokyo on Xbox Series X?

Why did the year earlier PS5 version developed during covid restrictions have better performance, resolution, ray-tracing and shadow quality than the Xbox Series X port a full year later, no restrictions, as an XBOX owned developer.

Shouldn't this also operate under that "The very least they could do." reasoning you used here?

I think people are reading too much into this. But MS needs to do something about the overhead on their api.

”Xbox has no games“

@kvallyx: shouldn’t a game like this look better on XSX??

@mrbojangles25: Yup! I'm getting "foilage" flashbacks too.

Yup.

As for why this keeps happening,

I have a hunch that developing on the PS5 is easier than the Xbox, due to operative systems (OrbisOS vs Xbox System Software). The former of which is Unix based, and the latter is based on Windows. While windows has its perks, Unix based systems tend to be preferred by us programmers for a reason. And a lot of us are way more familiar with Unix based systems than Windows based ones. Making programming easier.

Didn’t this come out a year later than the XSX version?

@Maroxad: It is mostly likely related to DirectX 12 than the OS.
