let be realistic here, regardless of which is "the most powerful" or whichever one outsells the other, both the Series X and PS5 are going to sell and sell well and probably be successful to both Sony and MS
arguing over which one has bigger numbers is folly, just enjoy your games
getting defensive and attacking others because they brought a different lump of wires and plastic to you is stupid
@Sanctanox but like i said in another post this is Ubisoft and the game is just gonna be a copy/paste of Odyssey, probably working off the same engine too
Ubisoft aint gonna do anything they don't have too, it's maximum profits for the minimum effort for them
@carlos82 i think everyone is also forgetting one simple thing, this is Ubisoft we are talking about, they won't do anything they don't have to do, i'm looking forward to Valhalla don't get me wrong but it's just gonna be a copy/paste of Odysseys engine and game play
@carlos82 but they are working around limitations because they are also making it for the current gen, i think being cross gen is what's the issue here, they should have just made it next gen exclusive
@Sanctanox yeah but then developers will just leave and release their games on other systems just like they did with the Wii U when Nintendo made using the second screen mandatory
it just adds extra work and cost and developers don't like being dictated too by console manufactures, remember Sony needs the developers more than the developers need Sony, there is always another console
@MS7000 fun fact, the ending for Asura's Wrath was never meant to be DLC the game was originally gonna have a sequel that finished the story but it was scrapped and reworked as DLC instead
And i don't know about you but i would have loved a sequel
i finally got round to buying Bloodstained Ritual of the Night, it's been scratching my Castlevania itch especially as Konami wont do anything with the series anymore
This was the only new game in that whole stream that really caught my attention and as i have yet to decide which next gen system i will get first it's nice to know no matter which one it is i can play this on it
@Stragen8 i don't think it was game play as in someone playing the game live, i think it was scripted moments BUT all in engine so there is a good chance that's what the game actually looks like
honestly kind underwhelming, most were just trailers using in game footage true but very little actual game play, especial Valhalla, i feel lied to over that one
we was promised game play but got a in game trailer
i was gonna watch a stream of Valhalla game play but the chat was so toxic and it's not even set to start yet
seriously there is no "console war" except in their heads, PS5 or Series X no matter which one you get why can't people just let others enjoy their games?
normally i would not condone this behavior from a big publisher BUT given the situation surrounding this game i think in this instance it was the correct thing to do because you know the comments section will just be full of people spoiling the game for others or complaining about it
@JohnnyShoulder well i don't buy them but i have a mate who is obsessed with them to the point they are pretty much all he plays and even he says that there hasn't been much innovation in the series lately
OK forgive me for sounding negative but surly if you have a PS5 or Series X you will be buying the PS5/SX versions of the games anyway so what's the point
yes i can see it being handy for late adopters and i understand my MS are doing it because the Series X wont have any exclusive games during the first few years but it's a service that isn't really needed just like Backwards compatibility, handy yes but not a necessity
of course it's a good gesture on the part of the publishers too, good PR i suppose
@jdv95 yeah well complaining about something being woke (or just generally complaining) on youtube is a guaranteed high traffic video, it's all about the clicks now a days
@jdv95 yeah a load of people saying they wont buy it will actually buy it regardless but most of negative reactions what i have heard isn't about wokeness but about, how to put this without spoiling, about certain events that occur to some characters (yes i have seen the spoilers and even i, a person who isn't really a fan of the series have to admit i'm not a fan of what they are doing so i really wont be buying it but i might borrow it off a mate at some point)

Re: Live: Watch the Summer Game Fest Special Showcase Right Here
@nookie_egg no idea, could be a marketing deal or it could genuinely be running better on PS5
Re: Live: Watch the Summer Game Fest Special Showcase Right Here

these are people who complain on twitter if their pizza is 2 minutes late

Re: Assassin's Creed Valhalla Shares Image of Idyllic English Settlement

i honestly would hang this up in my living room

Re: Poll: Are You Noticing PS4 Loading Times More Since PS5's Reveal?
In a word, NO
Loading is nothing to get worked up over, unless it's as bad as Sonic 06
So no it won't bother me going back to old systems after the PS5 is out, it will only bother people who have no patience

Re: Don't Expect Assassin's Creed Valhalla to Run at 60 Frames-Per-Second on PS5
@Sanctanox but like i said in another post this is Ubisoft and the game is just gonna be a copy/paste of Odyssey, probably working off the same engine too
Ubisoft aint gonna do anything they don't have too, it's maximum profits for the minimum effort for them
Re: Sony Breaks Silence with PlayStation Studios Reveal
you're right it is rather slick and snappy
i like it
Re: Don't Expect Assassin's Creed Valhalla to Run at 60 Frames-Per-Second on PS5
@carlos82 i think everyone is also forgetting one simple thing, this is Ubisoft we are talking about, they won't do anything they don't have to do, i'm looking forward to Valhalla don't get me wrong but it's just gonna be a copy/paste of Odysseys engine and game play
Re: Don't Expect Assassin's Creed Valhalla to Run at 60 Frames-Per-Second on PS5
@Octane as i said in my previous post i think the issue is that it's a cross gen game
Re: Don't Expect Assassin's Creed Valhalla to Run at 60 Frames-Per-Second on PS5
@carlos82 but they are working around limitations because they are also making it for the current gen, i think being cross gen is what's the issue here, they should have just made it next gen exclusive
Re: Don't Expect Assassin's Creed Valhalla to Run at 60 Frames-Per-Second on PS5
i think the issue is that it's a cross gen title plus it's also possible that this games was originally going to be on PS4/XB1 only
i think once the inevitable transition period is over then we will probably see more games hitting that 60fps mark
Re: Don't Expect Assassin's Creed Valhalla to Run at 60 Frames-Per-Second on PS5
@Sanctanox yeah but then developers will just leave and release their games on other systems just like they did with the Wii U when Nintendo made using the second screen mandatory

Re: Assassin's Creed Valhalla DLC Mission Will Feature the Famous Beowulf Legend
@MS7000 yeah it's a shame we never got more it was a game with great potential
Re: Assassin's Creed Valhalla DLC Mission Will Feature the Famous Beowulf Legend
@MS7000 fun fact, the ending for Asura's Wrath was never meant to be DLC the game was originally gonna have a sequel that finished the story but it was scrapped and reworked as DLC instead
And i don't know about you but i would have loved a sequel
Re: The Elder Scrolls 6 News and Details Are Still Years Away
So the engine will be even more outdated by the time it comes out then and probably full of even more game breaking bugs
Seriously why do people still support these jokers?

Re: Poll: How Much Do 'True' Gameplay Trailers Matter to You?
Cinematic trailers are fine but if they promise gameplay then they should show gameplay

Re: Scarlet Nexus Confirmed for PS5, PS4
This was the only new game in that whole stream that really caught my attention and as i have yet to decide which next gen system i will get first it's nice to know no matter which one it is i can play this on it
Re: Assassin's Creed Valhalla Next-Gen Gameplay Revealed
@feral1975 @GamingFan4Lyf AHH OK thanks
Re: Assassin's Creed Valhalla Next-Gen Gameplay Revealed
@feral1975 it can't be because MS said the Series X wont have any exclusive titles in the first years, all games will also be on XB1 at least
unless they have changed that stance
Re: Assassin's Creed Valhalla Next-Gen Gameplay Revealed
@Stragen8 i don't think it was game play as in someone playing the game live, i think it was scripted moments BUT all in engine so there is a good chance that's what the game actually looks like

@lacerz no it was on YouTube, Pure XBOX is pretty cool and chill, you should head on over

Re: EA Suggests Its PS4 Games Can Be Upgraded to PS5 for Free
@JohnnyShoulder yep
It's at a point where he lives and breaths nothing but football

@JohnnyShoulder he won't take a break, he is obsessed with football
Seriously even all his clothes are football based
Re: EA Suggests Its PS4 Games Can Be Upgraded to PS5 for Free
@Grumblevolcano yes but the next gen systems are backwards compatible so like i said it's not a necessity but it is a nice gesture

Re: You Can Customise Your Genitals in Cyberpunk 2077

especially on P.C when the modders come in
