I agree if I was Phil I would have pulled COD after this year 2022 and all other Xbox studio games almost.
I know it’s sounds mean but if Xbox want to be top dog one day they need to be ruthless.

So I guess that is on PlayStation for:
2023
2024
2025
It’s seems a bit of fuss but I have said before I know a good few PlayStation gamers that are just COD and also FIFA gamers.
PlayStation will be fine for a few years I think it is after that they are very concerned.

@KaijuKaiser
I think Sonys quality of their AAA games should not diminish. It is what Sony are famous for and if it wasn’t for some of those said AAA games and the quality then Sony consoles and game sales etc would reduce.
I mean if you took away Sonys top end AAA exclusive IPs then why would I want a PS5 over a series x.
I actually prefer the series x as a console, the multi-platform games usually perform a bit better and I prefer the Xbox controller because of the thumb sticks and triggers and then there is the value of game pass.
Also £70 a game and the PS5 £30 more expensive than series x UK etc.

The one and only single reason I have a PS5 is their amazing single player IPs and their quality like Ratchet and clank, uncharted, last of us, horizon, GOW etc the list goes on.

@ErrantRob
Nostalgia is a wonderful thing but for me never works out, basically out dated everything compared to new games.
That’s why I always moved forward and play new AAA games only.
Apart maybe from Knowledge is Power with the gang 😂

@Hurblyburbly
Had all the consoles since day one.
This is the first time I’ve been frustrated by Xbox and even a bit disillusioned with them.

The only thing is they have unlimited money and can be dangerous to gaming, but one thing for sure in the UK anyway, they are really starting to fizzle out now.
Anyway Sony keep up the great work

No one beats Sony PlayStation for getting PR etc spot on year after year.
Nintendo do ok.
Xbox, what is one of those(Hello PR Team)

@4kgk2
Totally true, it’s like since the console price increase.
PS5 still selling very well in the UK and also I don’t see anyone rushing out and buying all those Xbox Series s and x consoles sitting on the UK shop shelves gathering dust, like some predicted 😂😂😂

After all that moaning and also £70 price tags etc etc.
Look who has the top two games.
Well done Sony.
You make the best games you sell, simple as that.
Also just being honest, it may help the competition is also pretty weak and feeble currently as well.

@stvevan
This new generation probably could not have come at a worse time overall really, because of how things went with Covid, chip shortages and now the cost of living.
I was in a department store the other week looking at TVs and the LG rep said look in here nothing is moving and no people about.
It’s looking a bit grime I’m afraid.
Most new cars are still taking about 6 months to deliver.
I don’t know how some shops etc are surviving and what on, now all there electric and gas prices are about to up again.

@riceNpea
I think Xbox will have big AAA games but apart from FH5 and probably the coalition studio overall their AAA games don’t get to standards of Sonys
take HFW I can’t see them getting close to that overall graphically for a start and pure perfection especially in an open world game.
Take Halo infinite, it looked bad overall really and the Starfield showcase, inside it looked good but outside what we saw look so dull and boring.

@riceNpea
You have some good points there.
In the Xbox360 era I guess Microsoft did things right and well, but instead of going that way they are trying a different way, but also buying up some heavy hitting studios.
I think moving forward 2023 and onwards they will get back to big AAA games with all those studios they purchased. I guess it’s one way of doing it, just go out and buy it. Even if we don’t agree with it.
Game pass, not sure on that one if it does get a lot more true big AAA games then it does become serious competition to gaming as we know it.

I’m probably one of a very few that don’t get all this backward old games stuff.
Guess I’m from an era when you had a console played the games you wanted on it and when the next generation arrived you had new games for that new console, end of and everything moved forward very well and also no cross generation as well.
How my old gaming days have changed.
For me being honest for the worse, I preferred new console new games for that console so it took advantage of the new power a lot quicker.
Also all resource and energy spent on new games none of this back wards compatibility taking resources.
I know I’m in the minority and just old 😂😂😂

It’s ok Sony will have some more money soon after this year and they stop paying vast amounts of money for the COD and Fifa Advertising and DLC rights etc.

@Itsacardgame
Yes I have checked out good ole Vincent on HDTV have followed him for years.
He actually doesn’t live that far from me and when they used to do the TV showdowns before Covid the school lecture room he users is at my old senior school.

@Titntin
It’s a fun way to look at sales going by the amount of user reviews. I think it does give a slight indication just going by the amount and the percentages etc.
meaning the more user reviews, possibly more initial sales, unless a certain brand of buyer ie Sony in this case never post user reviews.

Actually if you do the user review thing in the UK with the PS5 and Xbox series consoles it does almost match the real as we can get sales statistics.

@Ravix
Good to hear about the brightness of the C2 I currently have a Samsung Q90T 65” and that gets very bright and really pops colour etc in HDR, hence the Samsung QN90B being in the running.
I know it’s QLED tech not OLED tech.

@Talkshowhost
Think you right there either the LG or Samsung
Years ago it would a Sony tv for sure.
How times have changed.

Totally off subject but to do with gaming and my PS5.
Been looking for a new tv for a month now.
The contenders now.
LG C2, Sony A80K and Samsung QN90B.

To my shock when reading reviews at stores and of course only going by review amounts how Sony have fallen TV wise if you can go by purchased people reviews to units sold in the UK over a couple of big stores.

LG C2 had about 1250 reviews
Samsung QN90B about 850 reviews
Sony A80K about 20 reviews.

Wow it was always Sony when I was young back in the day, but they not selling that many TVs now a days I guess, roughly going on shop user review amounts.
They best keep being the top dog in gaming market, if true now I know why they been making a big deal over CODs future etc.

Played the original PS3 version
Skipped the PS4 remaster version.
I think my brain has had time to forget most of it.
So will probably pick up the PS5 version in a sale.

It’s simple all you moaning out there.
You pay you play.
If you don’t wanna play you don’t pay.

It’s time for, God Of War.
Hope this gets GOTY, much as Elden Ring is a great game to some, I haven’t played as can't understand why they don’t bother to make the effort to put difficulty modes in the game.
If they had I would have purchased and played and probably massively enjoyed. I know I’m missing out but can’t stand it when a game is to difficult and to me they are just stubborn by doing this.
I am missing out because they can’t be arsed or to stubborn, that really frustrates me as I love open world exploration games.

I think diversity is probably the key to sustainment and expansion in areas of most businesses.
All so it brings cross business engagement and exposure.
Look how all the game companies do clothing, is the simplest example.
Nintendo, theme parks and Lego.

The world continually changes more so then ever the need to diversify maybe the need to survive.

None of these game companies make a niche product, it’s an entertainment product and that business world is massive.

I think we must be talking Grams of weight here maybe. Even that’s to much I think.

@rachetmarvel
That more business than I know
Only Sony will know the cost and selling price break points etc.
The console in the UK is always in very high demand, so if people stopped buying it then maybe the price will come down, but people won’t stop buying it. Simple supply and demand there.

I guess if it makes them money to keep producing top end AAA console games that is a good thing.

I’m chilled today, did enough ranting yesterday.
You pay you play.

@playstation1995
But he came back to the WWE and after the Rock battle the reception was amazing the next Monday night raw.

@NEStalgia
Dam you found me out 😂

@playstation1995
Scott Steiner later on his own was a nut job.
Or was it all character I could’ve never work him out. Big papa pump.

Looking good.
Must admit game pass seems to be getting some good games day one as long as they stay on game pass.
Fallen dynasty
Life of p
High on life.
God knows how much it costs Microsoft though.

@UltimateOtaku91
I can’t have the PS APP on my phone.
It’s a company phone and totally free which is cool but they control the apps from the apple store that you can download.
But it is free everything and I get an upgrade every two years for free. And they did add my bank app for me, but doubt they will add the ps app 😂

I think everything should go up 80% like my gas and electric has just done in the UK as of October.
Now that is a real life piss take or what.

@Michael2008ish
Ok I have popped round a friends for now.
So when I get back will message you on PSN.

@Michael2008ish
Still have the code if you want it and going to play the game.

@Bleachedsmiles
No worries, I’m sure someone else wanted it.

@Bleachedsmiles
Says I cannot send you a friends request as you have locked that option out of your account.

@Michael2008ish
To late, I’m afraid 😱
See us PS5 owners just give stuff away.

@Bleachedsmiles
Can see you on line now. Did you get the message and code

@Bleachedsmiles
Tried to send you the email on PSN
did you get it.
You seem very locked down on your account 😂

@Bleachedsmiles
Ok will try that now

@Bleachedsmiles
Ok will wait for that then. Didn’t know you could do that on here.

@Bleachedsmiles
Ok how do we do this.
I thought I could post it on here but then someone else might read it and use it before you.
Any ideas?

@Bleachedsmiles
If you really want to play it I don’t mind at all.
There are loads on eBay because of the bundle deal of late in the UK.

Anyone want a free HFW download code for PS5 and PS4?
Please only if you really want to play the game and for yourself, it can only be redeemed once obviously.

@BartoxTharglod
Like you said each to their own.
Kirby was good but the rest do nothing for me.
As where in the first two years of the Switch did lots for me games wise and was amazing from Nintendo in house studios. Since then their in house studios AAA wise have done not much at all.

@UltimateOtaku91
Of course there will be some amazing Xbox statistic about Starfield, how many million players.
Doesn’t mean they purchased the game or enjoyed it. It means they downloaded it on game pass had a quick look and that it.
I’m not playing Microsofts silly millions of players rubbish statistics.
Just like halo infinite Xbox mouthed off about millions of players what about now.

“Halo Infinite isn't in the Top 10 of most-played Steam games. In fact, at a little more than six months old - and its fan-favourite multiplayer component entirely free-to-play and available on Steam - Halo Infinite doesn't even breach the top 50 games that boast the highest concurrent player numbers. Or the top 100.”

Xbox all lies and full of it when they want to be.
The most untrustworthy of the lot of them. Phil the mouth piece and gang are corporate trash.

@playstation1995
I shall welcome you to the NWO 😂

@BartoxTharglod
Not for me Nintendo have not.
Kirby was ok but that’s is it for me from Nintendo 2022.
Nintendo in house AAA studios are nothing like the first two amazing years of the Switch game wise.

@IOI
You are totally correct but PS5 still seems to fly of the shelf really well in the UK.
