Elden Ring: PS5 vs Xbox Series X | S Performance Review

39 Comments

1. Game not running on perfect 60 fps, "the game is bugged".

2. Only VRR can save this game on series X, but it can't drop below 48fps

3. It’s funny/sad how grown folks insult each other over which console is better . Damn nerds LMAO

4. For a game that looks like an early ps4/xbox one game, im surprised it isn't hitting a locked 60fps on either platform lmao. Forza horizon 5 and horizon forbidden west are significantly more visually stunning games than this and is hitting the 60fps mark way more than this game.

5. graphical bugs only make the difficulty more extreme

6. The frame drops are really disappointing to see especially in an action game focused on combat.

7. Jesus. Who was the noob playing the game.

8. The "PS4 PRO BC MODE", what is it please ?

9. Ps5 runs at a 20% higher rez and also 20 to 30% higher frames than xsx x. The NPCS were halved to accommodate for lower ram on xsx

10. Stutters like crazy on PC. Buy on consoles if you can.

11. You are telling me this game is not a consistent 60fps on PS5 and Series X!? Are you kidding!? HFW is ten times more graphically demanding and haven't dropped a frame in 60fps performance mode. These "next gen" consoles are already sweating to provide what was supposed to be a starting point for them!

12. Technically, this title is a shame… Stuck in 2015… Goty 2015!!!

13. In any case anyone wondering, series s aka garbage console runs as low as 740p lol

14. Find it mad that if you buy the PS4 version it runs better than the ps5 version on the ps5 console 🤦‍♂️😂

15. Love this dudes English accent

16. Wow big win for ps5. Meanwhile, hfw is the fastest selling ps exclusive ever with 4.5m copies sold in the first 48 hours. Watch out for Sonys press release

17. Lol ps5 beats xbox series x again. Not only do they have no exclusives but the also have lower framerates haha

18. This is def not a console game. PC is the only way even though I’d prefer it on a console as it’s less hassle

19. Digital foundry is nowhere to be found yet

20. Jesus, PS5 loads fast! òÓ

21. Hard to believe that the game looks and plays better on the ps5, it has to be an optimization problem, XSX could do It better without problems

22. Series S is doing exactly what you ask for quality mode at 30fps and performance at 60fps even looks great on 1440p monitor with vrr👌

23. Wow ps5 smashes series x into the ground and onto the other side of the planet in this comparo damn………😮

24. Crazy how much more powerful the series X is than ps5

25. PS5 it s a monster !😎

26. how do you play the ps4 pro version on the ps5?

27. unoptimised garbage. ill buy this in 3 years time

28. So it runs better on ps5, is anyone surprised at this point? Microsoft lied about Xbox being the world's most powerful console and then brain dead ate it all up. 😆😆

29. Ps5 players need the extra load times for the many death ls they encounter

30. Picked it up for the PS5.. May get for the X if my bro wants to play coop

31. Theres no excuse for this… they're running on next gen technology

32. I'm wondering what it is about this title that makes it run so poorly. It isn't a bad looking game, but its not that great either. Horizon FW is more intensive graphically and still manages to consistently hit 60fps in performance mode.

33. Why on earth didn’t they cap the frame rate in the quality modes, and then reduce resolution in performance to hit 60 closer.

34. VRR/Free/Gsync is amazing on PC where you have a thousand different hardware configs.
    But on console, a developer has every opportunity to optimize their game for a fixed hardware spec.
    VRR should not be a crutch on console
    It's a nice perk, and it can smooth out some sync hiccups to help frame times, but it's not a miraculous cure all for all fps fluctuations.

    And on console, VRR must not be a crutch to achieve adequate frame delivery. Optimize better first, before external display factors.

35. So in summary , this game best played in PS5 being the most powerful and optimized hardware for this game , followed by Xbox X, series s and last ps4 pro

36. i'm so torn between playing this on ps4 on my ps5 for the solid 60 fps or just rolling the ps5 version and dealing with it

37. Please explain the framerate comparison at the bottom of the side-by-side screens when they aren't even displaying the same images. How are the green and blue lines meant to be showing the relative frame rates of the two consoles when they apparently aren't even playing the same part of the game? I'm sorry, but that makes absolutely zero sense.

38. how tf we gonna ignore the elephant in the room for unstable frames…. VRR. poor optimization

39. Remember how we were supposed to have 4K gaming three console generations ago, and we STILL don't?
