Look... I'm willing to concede these look sexy and I would like one... But... So much money for such a limited thing. Stadia is going to be upgraded in line with these consoles and it's only support that stands in the way of it getting the games. Why blow so much money for something so temporary when you can spend next to nothing for something infinite?... If you have a good reliable 35Mbps It's crazy to do this! Even for a handful of exclusives. I just feel blocked tbh.
VR virtually dropped (oh the puns)... Many many Multiplat games... Some even dual gen releases... I won't take low punches at the design but I wasn't fond of it myself. It's daring for sure.
Very little of what we saw looked staggeringly advanced. Much seemed like games that you could easily have on the PS4... Need I remind everyone that Cyberpunk is coming out on the PS4?... How was any of this way ahead of it!?
I spent most of this year downplaying PlayStation on here. I will admit I genuinely expected them to be wowing us sufficiently that I wished I could afford one (however ludicrous the idea of buying hardware is to me now) but I do not... In fact I resent the platform acutely for gatekeeping Horizon 2. One single game.
The fact they released the initial game on PC is rather poisonous in my head. How ***** dare they flaunt that like school kids! "We could give you Horizon 2 on other formats... but ***** you"
No, Sony, you will not have my money. ***** YOU for not adjusting with tech advancments. And ***** YOU for having the gaul to use that empty slogan. Your direct competitors (MS), Amazon, Google, Apple, even Valve are all making a streaming solution... You?... You demand this of us.
Why I only had to take one look at that hashtag, with that barely discernible white wiggle at the end of it, that some ***** head wrote in a vitriolic Stadia-hate tweet to be Immediately sold!
So you can all comprehend how a broadcast is different from a source video but you can't understand how someone's internet can affect the quality of a stream... Your arguments are all a convenience...
I am sad to hear that I liked where they took it in Oddysey.
I never enjoyed the past Assassin's Creed games... weird controls, specific tasks that were incredibly tricky to pull off, dull storyline sections in the near future... the environment of ancient Greece, the open world and the character Kassandra turned it into an amazing game.
Either way I'll be enjoying Valhalla on Stadia.
Horizon zero Dawn is the only bite for me in not buying a PlayStation 5. But when I stop to consider it... no single game is worth half a grand.
Bring us 10 games I care about that I can get nowhere else and I will have no choice... judging by Sony's recent endeavors I don't think I'm going to like many of their games... There's even a chance I may not like Horizon 2. The leanings towards how dark, difficult and disturbing PlayStation games are getting these days its turning me off so many titles. Even Final Fantasy (a game series that was entirely chill, story driven and thoughtful) is now a twitchy brainless hack and slash with split second timing and dodge mechanics... PlayStation's draw to making gaming appealing to the more aggressive demographic has destroyed gaming trends.
@Atreus97 you're asking the right questions. It makes you think doesn't it? And then of course it's 800 gig right? How many games do you think that's going to hold? 🤣 They talk a lot of impressive things and they show a lot of impressive looking optimised demos (tight closeup area, neutral colour pallets, very little real geometary detail to pick apart) . But in truth it's not going to be that much better... it really isn't... But of course by then, you have bought it.
Entrenched fanboys desperate to create an opposition to something they know is succeeding their console empire... Streaming is coming kids. But PlayStation Now ain't it... It never was.
Sony do not have the server power to compete in the game streaming market. I've used it and I can see why you all assume Streaming = Latency too... yikes... but the problem was the quality of the platform not the technology itself.
At best PlayStation now gives you a whole bunch of old games you probably won't even play for a small monthly fee. It costs. There is no free tier.
They most certainly will not be including PlayStation 5 games on there either.
That extra SSD for your PS5 is going to get mighty expensive when the 800GB (minus the system files) runs out, eh? If they allow you to use an external one again of course 🤣 ... If I know Sony it'll be proprietary and "Their own very special highly tuned SSD" 😳.....🤣
And if you end up being allowed to use a traditional hard disk... Well... It'll be as slow as your PS4 ever was with load times.
Limited space, less than a PS4 pro and very expensive to extend... Yowsers.
K.Yoshida : "Quick people are looking elsewhere at cheaper and just as effective options... do something do something!"
Sony Lacky : "But sir, we literally can't think of any reason our products are actually neccessary beyond their asthetic and sentimental appeal! Cloud computing is actually a really ethical, cheap and efficient way of doing tech"
K.Yoshida : "Wheel out the Heart-Strings adverts!!!!... and kill that lacky"
Pointless fluff. They literally have no other spin to get you into their products... You buy them because you always have done and you have to have the latest... It's Apple all over again.
Not a slight but perhaps this will bring home how questionable the upstep was in the previous video.
Speed of processing and definition was the only muscle shown... Rather dull and expected and, to be honest, not even that much better than what we have now.
Look to new WAYS of play and pushes on the boundaries of how we play... We don't need excessive pixels or light bloom... We need to move onto new ideas.
Try to look at it all with a critical eye. Assess how many of the games they show you are exclusive to the platform and how many you just could not live without playing.
Then consider... would you spend hundreds of pounds for the right to play those games when you could spend no pounds at all for the right to play all the others that were not exclusive and an entirely new set of exclusive games that do things you've never done before.

I find it hysterical they omitted the stadia logo from this video... You kids are so full of vitriol you are scaring the developers into removing visible association with stadia... Incredible 🤣🤣🤣 https://twitter.com/2K_UK/status/1260570627343364096?s=19
Generation is now only a thing to Sony and Nintendo (who are something of an exception) ... Pay through nose if you wish but I'm telling you that sticking with the old way is going to land you with an uneccessary paper weight before even a year has passed.
They're desperate to make this one final massive sale at your expense. If they're smart they'll use it to build a competitive streaming platform that matches the best we have now... More likely, Sony being Sony, they'll pour it all tugging your hype strings and delivering mediocrity dressed in shiny black plastic all over again in 3 years with a PS5 Pro...
Time to start rolling out the "Don't forget who you love" bids... Sony have been the doorway for the developers not the creaters. They provided money and marketing for them and profited. Now they want US to pay again just 6 years later to keep playing... Being encouraged into allegiance based on the contrivances they created is a bit on the vulgar side wouldn't you say? So shameless. Right now there's a free option staring you in the face. You Tube influencers have convinced you all it's garbage but If you don't believe me go try it. The games you want are coming to Stadia. And you won't have to pay anything but the cost of the game. Not even for multiplayer.
If it doesn't seem to be working right away put a little effort in to find out why. I GUARANTEE it's not down to the service. Believe me.
It was actually taken down? Oh dear... That's not good. Normally they just extend the date.
I guess they were going to make it a PS5 launch game (bit slimey and low effort but I wouldn't put it past them) then thought better of it?... so I wonder why they brought it back again?... All seems very indecisive and discordant... And STILL no news on the system or much of the lineup... Dear dear.
Because, as always, they wait for everyone to show their own genuine talent and then "One up" with flashy vids and words...
Years of great work goes unappreciated on other platforms because too many idiots believe that Sony's trick = Better games.... Truth is everywhere does EXCEPTIONAL work and they just get all the cool points for being crafty... Sad truth
Why, do you think, even the PlayStation 4 Pro feels sluggish in the UI?... Think about it for a second. Doesn't it strike you as odd that it can play such impressive games yet it can't smoothly navigate a simple UI with ease?
Oh don't worry. Sony is here with an upgrade for you! Just another £400 please. Now you can play all these exciting and impressive looking games coming next year...
But... Aren't we all impressed with the games you have and are coming out NOW?
It'll be the least successful PlayStation ever. Bar, perhaps, their handhelds. They take the piss way too much. Better options are on the table. People will see before the PS5 is available.
They are both going to make an absolute killing on you lot.
I do wish you would all open your eyes. It would make the whole process a lot faster and a lot less wasteful... See you in cloud gaming.. hmm.. about 2021 Summer I'd say. We'll be happy to show you around then 👍
Developers will continue to provider richer world. PS5 will increase its processing speed, memory, add an SSD for faster loading (but lower capacity than a pro... For games that take more storage... Oh dear) and marginally improve its graphics... And for this you will pay around 350-500 quid... Yikes!
