Phil said Forza is in early development still. That sounds like a 2022 game to me.It kind of makes sense, because Playground can then focus on Fable instead of Forza Horizon.
Yep. Forza in early development? Sounds like late 2022.
"How long ago was Hellblade released? How simple of a game was that?"
To be fair, if you watch the developer diaries through development of the game, you'd be impressed with what they did and resources they had.
I guess they weren't clear on their messaging, again.
Yeah. If they're still early in development at this point, I can easily see this slipping by their cross-gen window.
What were the others? The Weathertech banner comes with the track. The only other thing I saw was the Mazda Skyactiv IMSA car and a BAC Mono. All the cars on the track were the same with fake liveries.
God I hope they don't do that. I'm pretty much guaranteed to shelf the game after I work my way through the campaign stuff. No amount of car/track packs is going to make me come back. I need a new game every couple years.
@mcstorm
I see where you're going with that, but I dunno. I love a new game every couple years. The games do have improvements over the previous game and you can work your way through the whole game with those improvements. Using a core game and just building and adding stuff on top of it doesn't give as much of an opportunity to make major changes.
If it's just going to be the one game for the entire generation, I'm just going to get...
Naw. They're trying to revamp the series. I remember Dan Greenawalt admitting they got complacent and the game got stale. I thought the extra year they're taking would have been enough time, but apparently not.
Dunno. I thought that was dumb as well.
What was it they did to make us want to hate Ellie and Joel? I can see not agreeing with what Ellie was doing, but hate her? I didn't get a sense of that at all. Joel was hardly in the game.
@vallencer
The difference though would be MS has custom form factor for the expansion drives, so they are probably only going to work in an Xbox and can tack on license fees for the drive makers to push the price up. Sony will accept standard M2 drives. As long as it fits and is fast enough, it'll work.
@vallencer
They said up front there will be an expansion port for M2 drives. The one inside is likely permanent.
I don't think the PS5 will lock out drives. As long as it has the speed and it fits it should work.
"Once we've done that compatibility testing, we should be able to start letting you know what drives will physically fit and which drive samples benchmark appropriately high in our testing. It would be great if that happened by launch, but it's likely to be a bit past it, so please hold off on getting that M2 drive until you hear from us."
But will it be cheaper than Vita memory cards?
There's a handful of games that interest me, but Forza not being out at launch has seriously dulled my enthusiasm to buy the Series X at launch.
Yeah that, and the thousands of dollars it'd cost.
Sorry, I prefer consistency over obfuscation.
Those at least have subtitles. This looks like they're just going back to the same title as the first game, which is always stupid.
Sorry. I don't have two minutes to spare for them.
