00:55:15 - Everybody is talking about the PS5 being “less powerful”. But one thing people seem to forget is that Xbox plans to have their games playable on the old Xbox one, which means they will have to make the games playable on the older hardware with their limitations. (Having the long elevator rides and such) Sony on the other hand explained that with their new tech they will be able to design games as they envisioned and not be constrained by the slow hard drives of older generations. What do you think about this different approach? - Marleynito
