Deus Ex MD - $4.49 (already purchased)
Deus Ex MD Deluxe - $6.79
Deus Ex MD Season Pass - $14.99
🧐

Going to get it on Xbox because 1) I could actually snag a XSX unlike my bad luck trying to get a PS5 and 2) that Rockstar Energy promotion basically gets me the game for free

Looks completely amazing! I believe the music adds layers/tracks as you keep your combo up. Can't wait for reviews and hope there is a demo.

Does this run at 60fps?

I have to wonder if they’ll go back to Deus Ex after this or if DE is just as dead as this game is.

Oh heck yeah! Super happy to see this!

@Vilgefortz Didn't say it was. Just sharing my thoughts.

I really dislike owning multiple controllers that are exactly the same, so I'm holding out for new colors before I buy a second one. Unfortunately, I also like to keep one controller charging/charged while I use the other, so it looks like I'll be unable to do that for a while. Kinda lame on Sony's part - MS has several colors available right off the bat in addition to allowing previous gen controller compatibility. Nintendo also had multiple colored joy-con available immediately. Oh well..

@Only1PJA Thank you! Turns out I have a couple of those - dang!

Well, I guess I’m keeping my PS4 then.

@get2sammyb Okay, cool! Thanks for confirming!

@get2sammyb Is it possible to put the PS5 into rest mode and jump back in right where you were like you can on PS4 though?

Any confirmation on if these are 4K or 1080p at 120fps?

I 100% prefer buying on PlayStation, but Xbox got my money this week - way better Halloween deals over there.

SOMA - $2.99
Condemned - $4.99
Ghostbusters - $7.49

@PaperAlien Dang, well, that sucks then

Wishlist still works on the PlayStation App - at least for me it does - just checked it on iOS in USA

Why is there only one controller color? I’d buy a second controller sooner if I had more than one option - I don’t like having more than one of the exact same controller.

Playing through/finishing up Deus Ex MD now - overall, it is AWESOME and I absolutely recommend picking it up at that price.

I also played through The Order 1886 recently, and cannot recommend it even at $9.99 - I got it for $4.99 and I suppose it was worth that, so if you're thinking of picking it up, wait for a better sale.

Moving all games on the internal storage to extended storage/HDD now then 😎

...except Shadow Complex Remastered 😜

I suppose I could just buy Shadow Complex on XBox if I really got the urge to replay it as I would like to be able to get rid of my PS4 completely.

I wonder how conclusive this list actually is - the omission of PT has me a bit skeptical.

I hope the lights are not too bright - I really don't like the lightbar on the DS4 (along with the lightup Xbox button on the Xbone controller). I find controller lights very distracting, especially while playing survival horror in a dimly lit room. At least let me turn them off!

I played this for a couple hours yesterday and was actually enjoying it, but I'm concerned about investing too much time into it without a payoff.

I have a couple questions I can't seem to find answers to about this game if anyone can help:

1. Is this a game that can be beaten?/What are the requirements to roll credits?

2. Has anyone actually run into a microtransaction wall?

PS4 - The Order 1886
Switch - Doom 64, Rocket League
Xbone - Resident Evil 7
PC - The Dream Machine, Black Mesa

@NorrinRadd Hahaha... That is preposterous.

I like the part when they said, "Let's be honest." 😋

@God_of_Nowt "I don't find issue with cross gen games from a consumer or developer side so much as I take issue with Microsoft and Sony not explaining things to the consumer with transparency."

Yes. Agreed.

If a dev thinks, "I could make "x" happen on PS5, but not on PS4, and the game must release on both systems, therefore I can't put "x" into the game," that game is not being built for PS5

@God_of_Nowt I understand what you're saying, but what you're saying is not what "built from the ground up for PS5" means. R&C fits the description. Horizon FW does not.

If what @OmegaStriver said is correct, that is a perfect example of how HFW is not being "built from the ground up for PS5"

@God_of_Nowt But didn't you just make the argument that R&C couldn't run on PS4 without essentially being a different game? If hypothetically R&C was also on PS4, and it was the same game on both consoles, it would have held back what it could have been on PS5 alone by your own argument.

"Built from the ground up for PS5" =/= "Also built to run on PS4"

@God_of_Nowt
'I don't know what you mean by "glory",' Alice said.

Humpty Dumpty smiled contemptuously. 'Of course you don't — till I tell you. I meant "there's a nice knock-down argument for you!"'

'But "glory" doesn't mean "a nice knock-down argument",' Alice objected.

'When I use a word,' Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, 'it means just what I choose it to mean — neither more nor less.'

'The question is,' said Alice, 'whether you can make words mean so many different things.'

@Flaming_Kaiser I’m okay with not owning every game I play, and I find that doom and gloom scenario you’re suggesting incredibly unlikely.

@Flaming_Kaiser Okay, but I don’t care if GP is “sustainable” or not. I don’t work for Microsoft, and I’m not required to think about their business strategy. The way GP works right now - what it is right now - is awesome. If it sucks in the future, I’ll stop subscribing. Simple as that.

Not sure how you define “blockbuster single player game” but most of the games I listed are both single player and high in quality. Other AAA single player games that are or were on GP this year include: Red Dead 2, Doom, Wolfenstein 2, Dishonored 2, Outer Worlds, Remnant, Witcher 3, FF15, DQ11, Kingdom Hearts 3, all the Halo games, all the Gears games...I could go on - not sure what you’re looking for.

I’m not trying to suggest that Sony should adopt the Game Pass model. All I’m saying is that GP, in its current form, is awesome.

@Flaming_Kaiser I played the following games this year on Game Pass:

Battletoads
Bridge Constructor Portal
Carrion
Life is Strange 2
Man of Medan
Metro: 2033 - Redux
Metro: Last Light - Redux
New Super Lucky’s Tale
Observation
Ori and the Blind Forest: Definitive Edition
Plague Tale: Innocence
Resident Evil 7
Sea of Thieves
Streets of Rage 4
Superhot
Untitled Goose Game
What Remains of Edith Finch
World War Z

So far, I’ve spent around $85 on Game Pass Ultimate.

I don’t think waiting a month is going to allow for me to pay that small of a price to play all those games, especially considering I need online to play some of these, and others don’t even have physical copies available to purchase even if I wanted to buy them that way. On top of that, playing a game on day one of its release is satisfying to me as it allows me to be in the conversation as it’s happening.

@kiki3400 Yes, you are correct! Thank you! Found it: https://www.pushsquare.com/news/2019/02/ps5_backwards_compatibility_suggested_by_sony_patent

My question is, will PS5 be backwards compatible with PT, or am I going to have to leave my PS4 hooked up? 🤔

How did the rumor that PS5 was backwards compatible with all previous Playstation home consoles even get started?

I feel like I read an article 12-18 months ago that said PS5 could do that (not that I personally believed the rumor), but I think that's why there were/are so many people that believed it to be true.

@Pinkman For whatever reason, PushSquare hasn't listed these games in this article (copied from IGN):

Assassin's Creed: Valhalla
Cyberpunk 2077* (Releases alongside PS5 worldwide launch on Nov 19th)
Call of Duty: Black Ops - Cold War* (Releases Nov 13th)
Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition
Destiny 2: Beyond Light
Godfall
Fortnite
Marvel’s Avengers
Observer: System Redux
Watch Dogs Legion

(Edit: added more confirmed launch games)

@Mikey856 Try pricecharting.com

@MrGawain Try Uncharted and the 3 newest Tomb Raider games if you haven't. Based on the games you seem to like, that's 8 more games on PS4 I'm pretty sure you would absolutely love.

Edit: Perhaps you don't like guns in games. Even so, give TR a shot.

I really want to be excited for next gen, but I’m just not. That lineup is just not appealing enough to me - Nothing for me on the new Xbox either. Oh well! Still have a few current gen games left to play and complete while I look forward to 2021.

@phil_j For me, the Game Pass love comes from:
1. Downloading and installing games (instead of streaming)
2. Day one games (Streets of Rage 4, Carrion, Tell Me Why, etc.)

$15/month for GP Ultimate is equivalent to purchasing three $60 games/year. I have already played and completed 15 games (granted not all of them were $60 games, but still) on GP this year, and I didn't even pay full price because even GP goes on sale sometimes.

It also includes being able to play online and the ~4 games/month they let you "keep" from Games with Gold. I'm pretty sure you don't have to pay to play online on PC, so you may not relate to that benefit, but my PC is not the best, so that part of the deal does matter to me.

Bottom line, if you don't care about "owning" your games, that value cannot be beaten.

I don't care if its "sustainable" because it works how it works right now and I'm taking advantage of it. If Microsoft changes how it works in the future, I'll re-evaluate. Game Pass is currently awesome, and the best reason to own an Xbox.

BTW, for reference, I also own a PS4 and have purchased over 50 games for it. I'm platform agnostic, and also own a Switch along with several retro consoles as well.

Will this be 60fps on PS4?

Probably the last game that needed a sequel, but cool for the one or two people out there who enjoyed the first title for its story...

It took me two spin-off titles (CoM and 3.14159/63 1/3 or whatever) to realize that I was actually only interested in the main games.

It took me one more title (KH3) to realize I’m actually not interested in the franchise at all anymore.

Wish it was 90gbs of Tomb Raider. Oh well..

@Porkfiend Thought the same thing - kinda loses something in translation to controller from mouse and keyboard.

Loved the friction from walking too close to the wall - brilliant!

Pretty sure this unfortunately isn’t for me... #WishItWasTombRaider
