Digital Foundry | DF Weekly: If Xbox Series X is more powerful, why do some PS5 games run better?
We finally have some answers.
On paper, the Xbox Series X is a considerably more powerful piece of hardware than PlayStation 5, so why are we looking at a console generation where the Sony and Microsoft machines often deliver like-for-like results? It's a puzzle that has confounded many over the last few years and after discussions with multiple sources, including some of the highest profile triple-A developers in the business, we finally have some answers - and it's all laid out in this week's edition of DF Direct Weekly.

Feature | Zelda & Jazz: it really works
Lost in the woods.
Up until recently, I had a dear friend named Ray who was really into jazz. Ray was in his 80s when I knew him, and as a result, he was a bit of a gateway to Brighton in the 1950s. 1950s Ray really loved jazz, and 2023 Ray was there to tell me about what it was like to love jazz in Brighton back then. It was a town of cider bars for the most part, as Ray told it, but underneath a lot of bars were jazz venues, all literally underground, and the greats from the whole world of jazz would come and play in darkened, smoky rooms in this strange town stuck on the chill edge of England. This was always done under assumed names, which was something to do with managers and payments, I gather. The important part: you had to be in the know to access any of this.

VR Corner | Chained Together is highly entertaining in VR thanks to Praydog's UEVR mod
Watch Ian and Jim fall for each other!
Praydog's UEVR mod is absolutely astonishing. The fact that I could use it to instantly give current internet darling Chained Together a fully playable VR mode just blows my mind. This incredible mod injector doesn't work perfectly for every Unreal Engine 4/5 game (I wanted to do Still Wakes the Deep this week but it's a bit flakey for me) but, as you'll see in this week's VR Corner, Chained Together basically felt like it was made for VR.

Digital Foundry | Asus ROG Ally X vs ROG Ally: Hands-on with the new, improved handheld
More memory and double the battery capacity make a difference.
Asus recently announced the ROG Ally X - a refresh of last year's Ally. It's been criticised for not offering any kind of performance upgrade, but based on my experiences testing a range of PC Windows handhelds, I think it's a solid upgrade in many ways. The move from 16GB to 24GB of memory addresses issues afflicting a small but growing number of new games, while doubling the size of the battery goes a long way in sorting out the number one problem impacting every Windows handheld: the awful battery life.
