Any other details on the music? I love the music in Oblivion but its very short and repetitive today compared to Skyrim's sheer number of tunes and even the variety of music that plays as the sun is setting or rising too. Are there any new additional pieces of music at all or is it just the exact same amount of music as the original?
@Frmknst Game pass Ultimate, the highest and most expensive tier of game pass, that Indiana Jones was placed into by the time it launched 4 years later........ is not free lol. And the new expensive tier that Fable, State of Decay 3 and Perfect Dark will be in by the time they release, in another half a decade, will most certainly not be "free" either.
Nope, I generally don't touch any games that has Xbox/Microsoft's name attached to it. Indie looks abysmal, dead looking dull world, awful slow combat were enemies line up to attack and won't even follow over a 2ft drop lol and even more awfully slow and dull traversal. This is another one of those games where the reviews just make NO SENSE.
Its like they went out of their way to make it as little like Uncharted as possible, making it less like Indiana Jones in the process.
Can anyone remember the promise of the world's most powerful console the series x and how it gets its ass handed to it by PS5 for the past 4 years straight and the promise that it would do 60fps minimum on all games forward as the new standard, when that isn't even true for its own studio's games?
Again, PS5 games ARE SMALLER than the other platform that has the near identical looking game just about every single time, sometimes it's even significantly smaller too.
Well series x consoles aren't available in stores anymore and it never even made it to 7 million units sold so over 4 years later so................ yeah, it is what it is.
For people who don't understand, series x is the only console with a disc drive Microsoft put out this gen..... and its gone from most stores all over the world.
When there is no clear release schedule of 1st party PlayStation games coming....... 4 years into the gen, that I and millions of others can give full price money to PS for, IN THE MILLIONS, IN THE FIRST FEW DAYS A GAME RELEASES............. then I don't know how this route can mean anything. Lego Horizon was a spectacular flop because, I'm never buying a Horizon game on a multiplat game engine, designed to run on a Nintendo console even Nintendo stopped making games for. And I can tell you right now.........nobody on PC and Switch bought it either lol.
Just look at the comments on that blog post and the amount of us PS fans that weren't buying it.
One of the BEST comments on that link I posted and still true to this day
WRREAL2 said "you are lucky Xbox is incompetent as ever." So, so, so true even 4 years later.
Shame the franchise died for me years ago with that episodic format crap, nothing to do with Square Enix contrary to popular belief. And then when they did another remaster last gen, they left out 2 and Contracts, the only 2 games I care about.
Makes sense, series x only sold 6.5 million units after 4 years before disappearing from retail stores everywhere 2 months ago. Its basically ceased manufacturing at this point.
And 3rd party publisher Xbox said that PS5 made up of 64% of their sales in December 2024.............. the month that Indiana Jones launched and wasn't even available on PS5. That number would have easily been 80% had it came to PS5. That means Xbox and PC make up a measly 10% each of game sales. Why do Square Enix need to double their development time with multiplatform day one releases again???
Tell me about it. Xbox shills have given up so much they are doubling down on the "exclusives don't matter" and "exclusives are were always a bad idea anyway"........... and then NEVER bring up Nintendo in these arguments whatsoever, who triple down on bringing nothing to PC.
The arguments are solely fueled by PlayStation hatred and nothing more...... as was always the case in anything they ever did and pivot and change the goal posts to.
@Ultimapunch Don't waste your breath. Xbox consoles are DONE, series x can't be bought anymore in thousands of stores across the world in every continent and country. But these clowns will die on that hill claiming that PlayStation are in the exact same position as Xbox right now, saying ALL console gaming is dead.......... while, like I said above, REFUSING to talk about Nintendo and how they are still 100% exclusive and going after PC gamers stealing their games.
But the console war still rages on. After 5 consoles PS is sitting at over 530 million sold and Nintendo around 430 million after 8 consoles. Just because Xbox fizzled out around 180 million after 5 consoles doesn't mean "all console gaming is dead" lol. And an under performing style Steam deck like handheld next gen will change NOTHING for Xbox.
To understand the visuals of The Order 1886, play it for a few hours. Then fire up the AC Syndicate E3 2015 Cinematic trailer and look at the bar scene during the last minute. This trailer aired 4 months AFTER The Order launched, is a 100% CG cutscene..... and The Order 1886's inengine visuals, match it. Crazy.
It's a real shame. It came too late but an The Order 1886 sequel, made in the same semi open world style of God of War 2018, would have been amazing. Like Assassin's Creed 1, the foundations of The Order were there, it just needed a sequel to flesh everything out better like in AC2 where you can collect every weapon in the game and have your own HQ, you can go back to..... and just about everything else that AC2 did better over the 1st one.
Such a waste of their engine to get no flex the past decade before they were shut down.
Sony didn't match the 3DS. They undercut it. The 3DS was 270 quid when it launched Europe and was like a budget gamecube. The Vita was 250 quid, a budget PS3 like hardware and an OLED screen. It was insane.
And like others said, MH World proved people would buy a brilliant current gen MH game if they bothered to make one. They were making PS2 MH games for over a decade lol. On PS2, PSP, Wii, 3DS, YEARS of PS2 looking MH games and no evolving the technology whatsoever.
That is what the no vision, multiplat only future will look like if some people get their wish.
@Nexozi Yeah, the sequel to Ghost of Tsushima, that launched the same week in 2020 that Fable and State of Decay 3 were announced. That would be hilarious if the sequel launched before those games even got a concrete release date or release year (its hilarious yet has every chance of happening).
@Worlock_ed That's just a lie. GT7. HUNDREDS of other games the past 2 decades. How many games were brought over like 9 lol? That's all the PlayStation games yeah?
SO TRUE. Another flop single player PC game bites the dust. Not even the best selling PS game on PC is anything worth writing home about.
I've said it time and time again, if FF16 and its 3 million in only 7 days on PS5 is considered a flop, then what do the SAME PEOPLE call the PC version that didn't even sell 200,000 in 150 days???
@twitchtvpat Yes. 100%. You need an Xbox account to play any Xbox game on Steam regardless of what it is. Just another of the many Xbox myths out there that people pretend isn't a thing.
Won't make a lick of a difference. Ghost of Tsushima won't sell 2 million units on PC like it did on PS4 in just 3 days, regardless of PSN requirement nonsense or not. In fact, it won't sell 2 million on PC in 2000 days lol.
What does that tell you about how much of a waste of time it is bringing these single player games to PC when at the same time you are stumbling and not bringing brand new PS5 only games consistently to this same audience that supports and buys your games in the millions???
@CupidStunt Sony already do act like this since the start of the gen. You actually think Sony's game quality will drop??? What, because of no Xbox console exclusive games like Crackdown 3 going forward?
Funnily enough PlayStation is the leader yet done multiple Black Friday deals on all their SKUs last November. Xbox just gave up and gave 20% off a series s and nothing else.
The fact is, nothing will change today if Xbox consoles go away..... and that's a fact a lot of Xbox fans still won't admit.
So ironic for slimy Phil to say this when HE and NOBODY else, literally cancelled the PS5 version that was currently in development.
And then at the same time said "oh, I know you are well into development of this but here is series s, the game has to run on this for launch now too, good luck with that, I'm on my way to tell the same thing to the State of Decay 3, Hellblade 2, Perfect Dark, Fable, Everwild, Forza 8, etc developers".
@__jamiie Xbox are already getting a favor with 3 times the sales than multiple Xbox consoles. And it won't really hinder any kind of development since the standard PS5 will yet again out perform series x easily.
By comparison do you think Sucker Punch should drop everything right now and downgrade Ghost of Yokei and push out its release year by 3 years so to "return the favor" with a series version to abysmal sales, to a console that looks like will have somehow a SMALLER install base by 2028?
Nope. It just makes NO sense whatsoever. If this wasn't true, Fable, Perfect Dark, Everwild, State of Decay 3 would have been released already.
It's just crazy. And to to think we are reaching year 4. When PS4 reached year 3, the price dropped to 300 quid too and the Pro was introduced for 400. In year 4 of PS5 its more expensive than it was at launch and there is a 800 euro (= 844 dollars, figure that scam out) Pro lol.
It's astounding it's even keeping great pace of PS4 giving all these factors. But they did release a lot of their 2020 announced games, and even games announced after that too. The argument could be made that Xbox's console sales are dropping every month for 2 years straight because there are 2019/2020 games announced that still lack a release date or even a release year. And no amount of LIES and myth spewing that Xbox has an incredibly well planned "roadmap", will change this fact. Halo Infinite had a roadmap too, a TEN year roadmap.... and it died a death after less than 2 years.
@Shrek_Realista What the heck has the Internet to do with common sense? That's my opinion and nobody else's. I haven't read or looked at a single review on SH2 Remake
Ironic that you sound like a clown, molded by the hive mind internet.
The game has technical problems, even the title of Digital Foundry's report gives that away lol. "Silent Hill 2's remake is authentic and compelling - but technical problems need addressing".
Bit of a low IQ yourself there it seems. I'll buy it eventually, when it's cheaper and you have beta tested it for me. Thanks for that by the way.
So glad I didn't bother with this game. The studio is just not competent. I will buy and support a game at full price that deserves it... and this is not one and had NO CHANCE of being one.
Said it a million times. Bluepoint and the ONLY ONES should have been allowed to touch a national treasure of the gaming world, Silent Hill 2. This remake being made on the same engine as every single crappy Western made SH game, Unreal, already sealed its faith.
Of course it did when even the biggest Xbox shills like kidsmoove and Destin ran hate campaigns for a month straight on why its the worst thing in gaming ever...????...... and then all preordered it anyway lol. Every time opened their mouth they were making more people aware it exists.
I will buy one, when Sony comes to their senses and makes it 700 euro in Europe. 800 euro is a ripoff, WHEN ITS 700 DOLLARS in the US.
What I want to know is, where are all the grifter clowns that said "Durr so the remaster is basically the PC version then????"? Yeah, the remaster is based on the broken PC version that couldn't even do the vegetation and hair physics properly until 6 months after launch lol.
Over 4 years later. Took them long enough. When are PC users going to hit the 8 millions sales milestone the PS4 version did in 365 days??? Oh right, NEVER.
Neither is being played much on PC. That's what you need to be taking away from this but you won't and neither will anyone else. Every single PS single player game brought to PC has been a gigantic flop.... LONG before PSN logging in was a thing... so before 6 months ago really.
Of course it was. And the first week of sales of any PS studio singke player game on PC is 3% on PC and 97% on PS consoles and Spiderman 2 will be no different.
They can take away a disc drive all they want. I still have 95% of my purchased and supported games on PS4 and PS5 physically and that won't change 3 years from now.
I've told PlayStation on their own blog, same name as my username here...... If PS6 doesn't have an option for a disc drive..... I am done with any current present and future PlayStation anything.
And if they do that, don't bother adding BC to PS6, as any kind of PR bonus stunt, because it's pointless without a disc drive lol.
And again, can please stop talking about "700 dollars, 700 dollars, 700 dollars", for the Pro???
700 dollars is 630 euro. Why is it 800 euro is the real question and THAT'S why I'm not buying it.
It's already a rip off at 700 euro and I am willing to accept it since its always been the way with the PS4s and standard PS5.
But to screw over us Europeans, that helped still make PS3 sell 90 million total, who stood by you when lots of US customers abandoned you and went to the 360...... absolute disgrace and betrayal.
I only saw 3 people playing it launch day on my Friends list but 12 people own the game now since Friday. To put that in perspective, 5 months later, less people have still played Stellar Blade. My estimate is that's Astro doing pretty decent.
@Yaycandy I wonder what PlayStation's opinion is. They REALLY have had CONSISTENTLY high sales with all their consoles to date.
No 16 million Wii U or 50 million N64 or 20 million Gamecube style sales with PlayStation. In fact, I think PS3 still beat those 3 consoles combined.
That's an absolute fantasy that Nintendo have had consistent sales since 1985. Did you know that the Switch was the first Nintendo console to FINALLY beat the PS1's sales, nearly 3 decades later? Now that's a fact for you.
And for the article, Xbox consoles are dying, you know it, I know it. Nothing else to be said on the matter and I 100% agree that certain people want everyone to say its all consoles and we know who you are, the Cope Eastwoods of gaming.
Why do people always say this? We need an Internet Historian breakdown of how May 21st to late June 2013 really went down.
Did you know that right before the giant 180, Xbox threw it out there that you would be able to "re-sell" your digital games HOWEVER it would be up to the separate publishers? How would that even work lol? They were in pure meltdown mode and had no idea what they were doing, like Xbox right now.
When publishers like EA were asked to comment they shrugged their shoulders like they didn't want to be involved in this 4 week long train wreck.
Where has THAT come to fruition today? Where has an always online console come into effect today?
Where has the soldered in TV port gone on consoles, especially Xbox consoles?
Where is the Kinect gone? Series s and x don't even support any Kinect camera and so those consoles can't even play 100% of the previous games consoles games from Xbone.
"what the Xbone was trying to do". Yeah, right, in a revisionist's mind.
Relax. The examples you used, Fable, Perfect Dark and Blade do not even have release dates for Xbox yet. Not even an ingame hud lol. And those 3 games will likely get delayed to 2026 because this is Phil Slimey Spencer's Xbox reign after all y'all.
Xbox fans have been waiting for Indiana Jones since Jan 2021, 3 and a half years...... and when it finally got a release date, then came the PS5 announcement simultaneously. They still have yet to confirm what other older games they are currently porting to PlayStation right now and since earlier in 2024. Xbox didn't buy those thousand PS4/PS5 dev kits for nothing.
The new game announcements can come whenever. It's still quite baffling why they wouldn't even wait until January to announce Indie for PS5 though. They must have a lot more game announcements for PlayStation coming soon and wanted Indie out of the way now.
We all need to go out and buy Astrobot on day 1 to really stick it to Sony and to show them that they should have been more focused on single player games this gen.
Err yeah. Please Sony, give us a showcase that focuses on 90% games we already know are coming since 2020, give barely an update with the same trailer from last year (Fable and Avowed) or another CG trailer 4 years later (State of Decay 3).
Oh and make sure to give no release dates for practically everything shown too or the whole show might as well have been an email that games are still coming. Yeah, take notes Sony lol.
Seriously guys, LIKE EVERY YEAR after the Xbox showcase, you will all admit in a month's time, when you come off that placebo sugar pill, that it wasn't really that significant of a showcase.
Phil said 2 years ago at their last E3 conference in 2020, "everything shown here today will be out before June next year" and admit it, that's all you remember from that showcase. Nobody likes to bring up the fact that Starfield and Forza 8 were at the next year showcase AND Gamescom because of the constant development problems Xbox has this gen.
But of course, the Xbox E3 2022 showcase was "lit" and the "best showcase that year" like it is for certain folk every year.
I haven't watched an Xbox showcase live since the Kinect E3 2010 and the worst games console reveal of all time, the Xbone. I refreshed the Xbox youtube channel late last night and wasn't overly impressed by any of the games shown or announced or the lack of information.
@CKFilms No, they didn't. Or, sorry, they did but they hadn't a clue what they were talking about.
God of War and Horizon Zero Dawn were announced and released in less than 2 years back in the middle of last gen. Those are 2 perfect examples of massive games that dont fit that narrative.
You are thinking of Xbox where in 2017 Phil Spencer, lied yet again, and said "We won't announce games early going forward". Hellblade 2 finally came out with more 2019 and 2020 annpinced games without even a single ingame screenshot to this day.
@Rodimusprime1313 The focus on PSVR2???? Care to name a single game? Any FLAT SCREEN 1st party Playststion Studio games for PS5 announced since Spiderman 2 or Wolverine you would like to reveal even?
Yep. I've been saying it on the PS Blog for 3 years now since the disastrous Hermen Hults "Update on PS Studios" post in June 2021.
A lot of us were saying it back then in the comments. And a lot of people defended PlayStation. Well who looks stupid now? 3 years later and there are still hardly any new 1st party games, that got PlayStation where they are today, even announced.

Yes, they delivered in the promise, the PS5 version of the same games are smaller, who is getting defensive? I answered your question lol.
Re: Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Download Size Is Still Massive on PS5
@Oz_Who_Dat_Dare But they are smaller.
Can anyone remember the promise of the world's most powerful console the series x and how it gets its ass handed to it by PS5 for the past 4 years straight and the promise that it would do 60fps minimum on all games forward as the new standard, when that isn't even true for its own studio's games?

They wasted too much time on live service trash and now we have hit a lull, a lull I have foretold since 2021, commenting on the PS Blog ever since that DISASTROUS "What is Next for PS Studios" post Hermen Hulst did in June 2021. https://blog.playstation.com/2021/06/02/hermen-hulst-qa-whats-next-for-playstation-studios/

It's astounding it's even keeping great pace of PS4 giving all these factors. But they did release a lot of their 2020 announced games, and even games announced after that too.
The argument could be made that Xbox's console sales are dropping every month for 2 years straight because there are 2019/2020 games announced that still lack a release date or even a release year. And no amount of LIES and myth spewing that Xbox has an incredibly well planned "roadmap", will change this fact.
Halo Infinite had a roadmap too, a TEN year roadmap.... and it died a death after less than 2 years.
Re: Silent Hill 2 Patch 1.06 Fails to Fix PS5 Pro Problems
@Shrek_Realista What the heck has the Internet to do with common sense? That's my opinion and nobody else's. I haven't read or looked at a single review on SH2 Remake
Ironic that you sound like a clown, molded by the hive mind internet.
The game has technical problems, even the title of Digital Foundry's report gives that away lol.
"Silent Hill 2's remake is authentic and compelling - but technical problems need addressing".
Bit of a low IQ yourself there it seems. I'll buy it eventually, when it's cheaper and you have beta tested it for me. Thanks for that by the way.
Re: Silent Hill 2 Patch 1.06 Fails to Fix PS5 Pro Problems
So glad I didn't bother with this game. The studio is just not competent. I will buy and support a game at full price that deserves it... and this is not one and had NO CHANCE of being one.
Said it a million times. Bluepoint and the ONLY ONES should have been allowed to touch a national treasure of the gaming world, Silent Hill 2. This remake being made on the same engine as every single crappy Western made SH game, Unreal, already sealed its faith.
Re: In USA, the PS5 Pro Launched with Similar Sales to the PS4 Pro
Of course it did when even the biggest Xbox shills like kidsmoove and Destin ran hate campaigns for a month straight on why its the worst thing in gaming ever...????...... and then all preordered it anyway lol.
Every time opened their mouth they were making more people aware it exists.
I will buy one, when Sony comes to their senses and makes it 700 euro in Europe. 800 euro is a ripoff, WHEN ITS 700 DOLLARS in the US.
Re: PS5 Dominates UK Black Ops 6 Sales, As Game Pass Causes Xbox Share to Collapse
@GADG3Tx87 Didn't they also say that Hi-Fi Rush was a success in every meaning of the word and metric?
Why would ANYBODY believe them at this point???
Re: More People Are Playing the Original Horizon Zero Dawn Than Its Remaster on PC
@Skeletor85 Hear, hear.
Re: More People Are Playing the Original Horizon Zero Dawn Than Its Remaster on PC
@DrUnfunny The original ran like crap on PC too.
What I want to know is, where are all the grifter clowns that said "Durr so the remaster is basically the PC version then????"?
Yeah, the remaster is based on the broken PC version that couldn't even do the vegetation and hair physics properly until 6 months after launch lol.
Re: More People Are Playing the Original Horizon Zero Dawn Than Its Remaster on PC
Over 4 years later. Took them long enough. When are PC users going to hit the 8 millions sales milestone the PS4 version did in 365 days??? Oh right, NEVER.
Neither is being played much on PC. That's what you need to be taking away from this but you won't and neither will anyone else.
Every single PS single player game brought to PC has been a gigantic flop.... LONG before PSN logging in was a thing... so before 6 months ago really.
Re: In Europe, 78% of Silent Hill 2 Copies Were Purchased on PS5
@torquex Sure you can, it's just that nobody hardly does, including PC mustard race gamers that play on monitors smaller than 32" mostly.
Re: In Europe, 78% of Silent Hill 2 Copies Were Purchased on PS5
Of course it was. And the first week of sales of any PS studio singke player game on PC is 3% on PC and 97% on PS consoles and Spiderman 2 will be no different.
Re: Like It or Not, This Is Why PS5 Pro Doesn't Have a Disc Drive
They can take away a disc drive all they want. I still have 95% of my purchased and supported games on PS4 and PS5 physically and that won't change 3 years from now.
I've told PlayStation on their own blog, same name as my username here...... If PS6 doesn't have an option for a disc drive..... I am done with any current present and future PlayStation anything.
And if they do that, don't bother adding BC to PS6, as any kind of PR bonus stunt, because it's pointless without a disc drive lol.
And again, can please stop talking about "700 dollars, 700 dollars, 700 dollars", for the Pro???
700 dollars is 630 euro. Why is it 800 euro is the real question and THAT'S why I'm not buying it.
It's already a rip off at 700 euro and I am willing to accept it since its always been the way with the PS4s and standard PS5.
But to screw over us Europeans, that helped still make PS3 sell 90 million total, who stood by you when lots of US customers abandoned you and went to the 360...... absolute disgrace and betrayal.
Re: Astro Bot PS5 Sales 'Aren't Huge' in UK, But There's Still Hope
I only saw 3 people playing it launch day on my Friends list but 12 people own the game now since Friday.
To put that in perspective, 5 months later, less people have still played Stellar Blade.
My estimate is that's Astro doing pretty decent.
Re: Failing Manufacturers Are Pushing the Narrative That Consoles Are Dying, Says Ex-Xbox Exec
@Yaycandy I wonder what PlayStation's opinion is. They REALLY have had CONSISTENTLY high sales with all their consoles to date.
No 16 million Wii U or 50 million N64 or 20 million Gamecube style sales with PlayStation. In fact, I think PS3 still beat those 3 consoles combined.
That's an absolute fantasy that Nintendo have had consistent sales since 1985. Did you know that the Switch was the first Nintendo console to FINALLY beat the PS1's sales, nearly 3 decades later? Now that's a fact for you.
And for the article, Xbox consoles are dying, you know it, I know it. Nothing else to be said on the matter and I 100% agree that certain people want everyone to say its all consoles and we know who you are, the Cope Eastwoods of gaming.
Re: Reaction: It's Time for Xbox to Tell Us Which Games It's Bringing to PS5, and Which Games It Isn't
@HonestHick Nope, nope NOPE.
Why do people always say this? We need an Internet Historian breakdown of how May 21st to late June 2013 really went down.
Did you know that right before the giant 180, Xbox threw it out there that you would be able to "re-sell" your digital games HOWEVER it would be up to the separate publishers? How would that even work lol? They were in pure meltdown mode and had no idea what they were doing, like Xbox right now.
When publishers like EA were asked to comment they shrugged their shoulders like they didn't want to be involved in this 4 week long train wreck.
Where has THAT come to fruition today? Where has an always online console come into effect today?
Where has the soldered in TV port gone on consoles, especially Xbox consoles?
Where is the Kinect gone? Series s and x don't even support any Kinect camera and so those consoles can't even play 100% of the previous games consoles games from Xbone.
"what the Xbone was trying to do". Yeah, right, in a revisionist's mind.
Re: Reaction: It's Time for Xbox to Tell Us Which Games It's Bringing to PS5, and Which Games It Isn't
Relax. The examples you used, Fable, Perfect Dark and Blade do not even have release dates for Xbox yet. Not even an ingame hud lol. And those 3 games will likely get delayed to 2026 because this is Phil Slimey Spencer's Xbox reign after all y'all.
Xbox fans have been waiting for Indiana Jones since Jan 2021, 3 and a half years...... and when it finally got a release date, then came the PS5 announcement simultaneously.
They still have yet to confirm what other older games they are currently porting to PlayStation right now and since earlier in 2024. Xbox didn't buy those thousand PS4/PS5 dev kits for nothing.
The new game announcements can come whenever. It's still quite baffling why they wouldn't even wait until January to announce Indie for PS5 though. They must have a lot more game announcements for PlayStation coming soon and wanted Indie out of the way now.
Re: Things Are Getting Worse for Floundering PS5, PC FPS Concord
Alot of us voiced our concerns on the official PS Blog post at the launch of Concord.

Re: Things Are Getting Worse for Floundering PS5, PC FPS Concord
We all need to go out and buy Astrobot on day 1 to really stick it to Sony and to show them that they should have been more focused on single player games this gen.
Re: Preview: Ignore The Haters, Concord Is a Good PS5 Shooter We Can't Wait to Play More Of
People are forgetting if it's free2play......... then it doesn't need a basic PS Plus subscription to play.
Re: PS5 Fans Beg Sony for a More Fulfilling Livestream in the Aftermath of Xbox Show
Err yeah. Please Sony, give us a showcase that focuses on 90% games we already know are coming since 2020, give barely an update with the same trailer from last year (Fable and Avowed) or another CG trailer 4 years later (State of Decay 3).
Oh and make sure to give no release dates for practically everything shown too or the whole show might as well have been an email that games are still coming. Yeah, take notes Sony lol.
Seriously guys, LIKE EVERY YEAR after the Xbox showcase, you will all admit in a month's time, when you come off that placebo sugar pill, that it wasn't really that significant of a showcase.
Phil said 2 years ago at their last E3 conference in 2020, "everything shown here today will be out before June next year" and admit it, that's all you remember from that showcase.
Nobody likes to bring up the fact that Starfield and Forza 8 were at the next year showcase AND Gamescom because of the constant development problems Xbox has this gen.
But of course, the Xbox E3 2022 showcase was "lit" and the "best showcase that year" like it is for certain folk every year.
I haven't watched an Xbox showcase live since the Kinect E3 2010 and the worst games console reveal of all time, the Xbone. I refreshed the Xbox youtube channel late last night and wasn't overly impressed by any of the games shown or announced or the lack of information.
Re: Reaction: PS5 Livestreams Are No Longer Speaking to the Fans Who Built the Brand
@CKFilms No, they didn't. Or, sorry, they did but they hadn't a clue what they were talking about.
God of War and Horizon Zero Dawn were announced and released in less than 2 years back in the middle of last gen. Those are 2 perfect examples of massive games that dont fit that narrative.
You are thinking of Xbox where in 2017 Phil Spencer, lied yet again, and said "We won't announce games early going forward". Hellblade 2 finally came out with more 2019 and 2020 annpinced games without even a single ingame screenshot to this day.
Re: Reaction: PS5 Livestreams Are No Longer Speaking to the Fans Who Built the Brand
@Rodimusprime1313 The focus on PSVR2???? Care to name a single game? Any FLAT SCREEN 1st party Playststion Studio games for PS5 announced since Spiderman 2 or Wolverine you would like to reveal even?
Re: Reaction: PS5 Livestreams Are No Longer Speaking to the Fans Who Built the Brand
Yep. I've been saying it on the PS Blog for 3 years now since the disastrous Hermen Hults "Update on PS Studios" post in June 2021.
A lot of us were saying it back then in the comments. And a lot of people defended PlayStation. Well who looks stupid now? 3 years later and there are still hardly any new 1st party games, that got PlayStation where they are today, even announced.
