Digital Foundry - Sea Of Thieves PS5 Breakdown (PS5 wins again)

“when absent from Series X. Once again, these were very minor differences that you'd need a side-by-side to spot, but there is a clear PlayStation advantage here for some reason, which I don't really understand at the moment. On PC, the PS5 corresponds with max settings, with Xbox falling somewhat behind.”

PS5 always beats Xbox because Xbox always sucks.

Oh no!

Anyway....

That almost sounds like something a child would say, but I don't want to insult children's intelligence.

Oliver never disappoints in his reviews.

I think Sea of Thieves just looks good in general, everyone wins in my books.

Ah reminds me of the foliage debate from ps3vs 360 but even more inconsequential.

Game is the same who cares…

Those look identical except for some incredibly low poly bushes in the middle of the picture on the PS5 screenshot... certainly nothing to brag about though.

That said.. I didn't enjoy the game on Xbox and won't be playing it on PS5.

I would however take ESVI, Indiana Jones, Avowed, and Scalebound (make it happen).

The quality of the post fits the community quite well in this case.

Ghost are you shilling for Sony on minute differences in sea of thieves? 😂

Yep! 😂

It's a pre order bonus

😂🤣😂🤣

Only a Xbox shill would interpret this information that way. (see @Pedro)

The best place to play Xbox games is PC. The second best place to play Xbox games is on PlayStation 5. The worst way to natively play Xbox games is on Xbox hardware… Let that sink in. Thanks Phil! 😂🤣😂

Lol at least nobody can say Microsoft is gimping Playstation versions of games 🤣

Lol... I'm sure Microsoft is crying while cashing their checks for exposing their game to a huge install base and having a more popular game on Playstation than Sony. I'm sure it's the unoticeable difference in the game performance between Xbox and ps5 that has them feeling dejected....

@shadyacshuns: so your goal is to blend in with the crowd and stand out as little as possible?

I dread having such high expectations with my life, you are one crazy bastard.

Lems have been rekt

Laughable.

Sell your Xboxes already, guys. Its a pointless sytem. How many years of suffering will you be able to withstand?

Good god, the power of ps5! Actually managing to secure minute improvements in a last gen game that Cows assured us is crud is worthy of a post these days.

Please Sony, make a game for them….this “Xbox is outselling Sony on PS5” news is warping their brains!😂😂😂

Yikes! Thanks for beta testing I guess.

Is this game good? never got around to getting or playing it. Would play 4K 140+ fps on PC ofcourse.

The OP is supposed to be a sheep, but hates lems with a passion that he constantly attacks Xbox trying to hurt their feelings but only ever ends up losing his account, and this is pretty weak bait 🤦‍♂️

@shadyacshuns: OK, alt boy

Agree. Its pathetic how he hides behind an alt.

Cows flexing about a low poly bush in sea of thieves (a last gen MS game) is peak desperation durring the Sony drought of games in 2024 lol

You won!! Lol..

What alt would that be? Could it possibly be one of the 1% GUFU legends?

"Thanks Phil!" 🤡🤡🤡

As usual, don't waste your time.. Just let his downward spiral into clown town continue..

Damn, the Pro's not even out and PS5 is already getting the best versions of Xbox games

The power of one word.😂

I mean, how long has this game been out?

You'd hope there would be optimizations over the years

😂🤣Microsoft isn’t the issue here. It’s their loyal fanbase. The “diehard” Lems are holding the L here. Years of loyalty wasted on a company that is putting better console versions of their games on PlayStation. That’s why folks like TimDog on Twitter are going through an identity crisis. The dude has been to Redmond, wined and dined with Phil Spencer and Co, and now he doesn’t know what to do with himself. Just like the aimless Lems here. Years of being a loyal soldier of the Xbox Army, just to watch the opposition get preferential treatment. And the non-Lem bystanders like yourself are disingenuously playing along because you get a couple cheap b-tier games on your Steam Deck.

Xbox is finally working out a strategy that works. Sell games to the userbases that have historically spent more on games than the Xbox base. It’s a mind-numbing move after putting all their eggs in the Game Pass basket. I bet Phil has a team dedicated to inventing time travel so he could go back and change that one

Almost six years.🙃

Lol, damn dude..

Literally noone cares about Sea of Thieves having neglible advantages YEARS after the Xbox release and while also being available for "free" on Game Pass..

The only thing on display here is you clear desperation for a "W" on the lems.. 🤡

Now if that were the case, you wouldn't be here in this thread damage controlling. 🤣

@BenjaminBanklin: there's no need to damage control a clown show..

You just show up and laugh 🤣🤡

No idea how Antwan3K will go through 2024😂

You should probably replace "@Antwan3K" with "cows"..

I plan on playing Hellblade 2, Avowed, and Indiana Jones via Game Pass.. Plus I'll continue to add to my backlog on Steam with Horizon 2 and Ghosts of Tsushima..

Meanwhile, Sony has gone Day One on PC (👍🏽) until they actually announce something for 2025 and beyond.. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Maybe you should demand better of your plastic overlord instead of fanboying..

Literally you pretending you care about Rise of the Ronin while Playstation has given up releasing games in 2024.. 🤣

Did RARE not get " teh toolz" ?

Why would i replace it with cows when we have 4 exclusives in the first quarter😂You, tho, the only thing you have to look forward to is The Order 1886: Xbox Edition, which is Hellblade 2🤣

Playstations been getting exclusives like crazy, on top of getting Xbox's exclusives too. It's not fair for one console to have it all. Yet, the PS5 is it

Cows relying on bought games from 3rd party developers from which the only one worth playing is being played on PC.

Sony studios producing nothing and quality control goes out the window.

Forced into buying games from Microsoft and damage controlling.

No wonder microsoft released games to playstation now. Cows have little else worth playing.

Oh the irony of this one. MS bought two whole publishers just so they could have some games... and had to put them on Playstation anyway. So not only are they 80 bil in the hole from buying these pubs, they failed to move the needle for Xbox AND Game Pass, and now they have to give Sony a cut from games that were already on the platform. MS just can't win in gaming

@BenjaminBanklin:You are celebrating the game you called a flop? 😂

2024 is pretty rough for cows if they are celebrating getting to play a game they bashed when it released on Xbox in 2018.. 🤣

congrats, you can finally see that it's great game.. and maybe PlayStation will actually release something in 2025 so you can stop losing your minds.. 🤞🏽

i'm certainly glad you have that PC.. otherwise we'd have to get someone to come check on you 👍

no worries, 2025 will get here eventually..

Xbox is such a weird subsidiary not only they suck at supporting their console, they are helping their competitors win. Good thing is due to popular demand of xbox games on PS we definitely will be seeing more ports of Xbox games on PS. Which obviously great news to me we getting exclusives and xbox games that runs better on PS.

Why does it matter? MS is so desperate that they're now releasing Xbox games on PS🥱And those games are better optimized for PS because MS knows that its their only way of selling games. Nobody buys anything on your Box, GP ruined sales and that's why the effort into your first party is as mediocre.

Yet, Sea of Thieves launched at #2 on NPD way back in 2018 and already had 40 million players.. 🙄

I'm glad Playstation gamers are getting a chance to play the game, I thoroughly enjoyed it back when cows were bashing it.. Good to see that it was all fanboy nonsense since now cows are tripping over themselves to buy the game at full price 🤣
