It's not like Phil Spencer is a pathological liar who can't seem to shut up. Oh wait, that's exactly what he is. I am sorry, there is simply no way the least selling platform can make those 7.5 billions back with those games even if you include PC. Sony or Nintendo could, but Xbox is just too small of a brand to manage to do so. They will end up third place again and Sony will outsell them at least 2:1.
Beside, it's not like Phil would admit it anyway, it would make him look stupid if he did (well he already does look stupid, but it's another matter entirely).
@ED_209 Yeah, seems to me the reason some games don't support it is because the developers are lazy. Sure however, the xbox fanboys will keep blaming Sony to try and make the PS5 look bad though.
I played MHW, but never got around to Iceborn. Will go back to it on PS5. Since it's framerate is uncapped, it will probably manage to hit 60fps on PS5.
Still no release date? What the hell? Is this like Code Vein where you're going to talk about it all the time, but it's going to take forever to actually come out?
I hope we get THPS3 and THPS 4 campaign DLC, that would be awesome. THPS4 might be harder because it was different, but they should definitely do THPS3.
Microsoft blinked first, now the PS5 digital edition will definitely be $299. They can afford to lower it that much because they will make a lot more money on games this time around.
That's not without counting money made from accessories and subs, along with the money they will still make from PS4.
If the XSX is $499, it means the PS5 will be $399 or $449.
Sony can afford to lower their prices, they're the market leader.
@I_Like_It It won't clear out in a heartbeat, just like every console launch, you will have a few hours. Of course, that's normally, Sony are making a lot more this time around, so you definitely have a few hours to get one.
What's hilarious is that MS actually think they have a chance of winning when they clearly don't. They seriously need to come to grips with the fact that all they will ever accomplish is distant last place.
@Jacko11 Not really, I am pretty sure 99% of those glitches can't be replicated. Meaning the people who got them are unlucky and wouldn't be able to do it again even if their lives depended on it.
I like them. Most of them only offer cosmetic microtransactions anyway and I never ever use them. Hell, I never use any other character models other than the original.
It will probably never happen. The game didn't sell well at all, so a remaster or a sequel is likely not even in their minds. This is something they got when they bought Insomniac that they will ignore and never touch.
@thebakerswife They will probably do it like Shadow of the Colossus, but change some mechanics to make it more on par with the new games.
Yeah, Shadow of the Colossus is the same game, but it was definitely remade from the ground up, you can't have this much graphical improvement with a simple remaster. Plus they fixed the controls (well, not completely, it's still horrible in the controls department, just not as bad).
@thebakerswife Well, Demon's Souls was the one that started it all, but even though it's an excellent game, it's actually pretty outdated and old compared to the games that came after. It would benefits from a remake.
@SaucyBrotato It's definitely not gonna last as long as pessimists think it will. With all the measures taken in North America, I think we're looking at 2-3 months top before our lives go back to normal. It took 4 months for China and they took forever to start taking precautions.
Also, this virus will never completely go away. It's part of this world now just like the influenza. It's new right now, but eventually, we'll understand it better and it won't be a big deal anymore.
Microsoft yet again talking out of their asses even though they don't know anything about Sony's plans. Last year, Sony already had announced they wouldn't be at E3 2019 by November 2018. If they weren't attending this year, I am pretty sure we would know by now and Microsoft wouldn't be the ones announcing it.
@doctommaso Maybe it will release in 2020, but late 2020. The fact is, we have zero information about this game, so it's definitely releasing late 2020 at this point. They will likely have a gameplay reveal at E3.
It's just a rumor and nothing is confirmed. DF doesn't know what they're talking about and they're now just another clickbait site that use fake rumor numbers to get clicks.
There is literally no specs confirmed for either the PS5 or Xbox Series X.
Doesn't really matter if he is keeping his cards close to his chest, since the CPU and GPU are definitely locked at this point and we're way past the point of no return on those, so they can't be changed. The only thing that will differ from devkit to retail is ram and hard disk space.
Also, Sony is better at hardware when they try, so no, they will not be on equal footing, since there is a huge chance the PS5 will end up the most powerful one. The only time Xbox could claim it was more powerful is when they released a year later. Also Sony didn't really try with the PS4 Pro because they didn't need to, it was a quick cash grab for them. Meanwhile Microsoft went all out and it didn't even matter, since the PS4 not only still beat the crap out of Xbox One, but I am willing to bet the PS4 Pro also outsold the Xbox One X by a huge margin as well.
I can't understand why people are so hyped for this. The Witcher 3 is the only good game CDPR has made (the Witcher 2 was decent and the first game was actually pretty bad). For all everyone knows, they could be a one trick pony.
Plus every stupid design decision about Cyberpunk is not encouraging.

Re: Will PS5 Support 1440p Screens? Fans Are Eager for Answers
If you're going to have some games running at 1440p, the least you could do is support the damn resolution.
Re: Sony Confirms PS5 Media Apps, Explains Dedicated Entertainment Space
I hope something like Universal Media Server or Plex work on PS5 too.

Re: PS5's User Interface Runs in Native 4K with HDR
The xbox fanboys are already saying how it's a waste of ressources. The damage control because their UI is bad and run at 1080p is already starting.
Re: Devil May Cry 5 Takes Four Seconds to Load on PS5, 22 Seconds on PS4
Sony is showing gameplay for next-gen games, meanwhile Microsoft keep showing BC stuff.

That game was free on PS Plus, so I guess everyone who grabbed gets a PS5 version for free.

Re: Godfall Gets Its Best PS5 Trailer Yet
Does this game not have any UI or they just didn't show it yet?
Re: Assassin's Creed Valhalla Will Run at 4K, 60FPS on Xbox Series X, No Word on PS5 Version
The difference in power is very small. So if XSX can run it at 4K/60fps, so can the PS5 and at the same graphical fidelity too.

It's the same as Microsoft. It's also up to publishers on Xbox, it's not all games.
Re: Bluepoint on PS5 Reveal: It's Time to Leave Our Old Gaming Limitations Behind

Re: Elden Ring Community Has to Reconsider After Pinning Gameplay Hopes on E3 2020
Anybody who still think this game is actually releasing in 2020 need to wake up and face reality, it won't make it into 2020.
Re: Gran Turismo PS5 Could Target a Mind Melting 240 Frames-Per-Second
@Shalan Yeah, I realized afterward that 120hz on a tv is not that uncommon. My X900F does it too.
I still stand by the fact that 240hz is very rare though.
Re: Gran Turismo PS5 Could Target a Mind Melting 240 Frames-Per-Second
Completely pointless. 99% of consoles players play on TV and 99% of TVs don't go past 60hz, so anything past 60fps is a waste of time.
4K monitor that are 120hz or above are just stupid expensive. If a 120hz or above 4K TV actually exist, it must be even more expensive than a monitor.
Re: Rumour: The Wonderful 101 Coming to PS4 via Kickstarter

Re: No, PS5 Backwards Compatibility with PS4, PS3, PS2, and PS1 Games Has Not Been Confirmed
Pretty sure PS4 has been confirmed. PS1-PS3 are the ones not confirmed.
Re: Rumour: Xbox Not Expecting PlayStation to Be at E3 2020

Re: PS5 Specs Leak Sends the Web into a Frenzy

Re: Gamers Are Convinced Horizon: Zero Dawn Is Coming to PC Next Year
It's not happening. This is just some random russian youtuber with no credibility.
Boost the popularity? It sold more than 10 millions copies, it's already sky high at this point, there is no need to boost it.
Also a February release date? It would have been revealed months ago if that was the case.
Re: Stunning Action RPG Granblue Fantasy: Relink Returns Later This Month
About god damn time. I was starting to think this was vaporware in development hell that was never coming out like Deep Down or dead island 2.
