No it isnt. The xbox one require you to check in online every 24 hours. Also alot has changed in terms of Internet infrastructure and provision globally since 2013.....
Wtf why is there no console upgrade.
If true I think it is clearly a bug. The whole point of having a primary account is that it automatically resyncs lice ses when connected to the Internet on that device. Having to make Sally log in every 30 days makes no sense.
Well with the decreased price of gamespass even with cod off it there is no way it is profitable given the cost of making their 1st party games (not if you actually include that cost in gamespass costs which they typically dont but should) they will just make a loss without the sales on
Someone didn't read the article.
@hiawa23 yes that is exactly what I'm saying same for ps5. Remember these devices would have been finalised 208/2019. They were designed during a period of particularly low hardware and rare earth materials etc. They aren't designed to be efficient and are large and have large heat footprints. Both new consoles will benefit from new manufacturing process reducing amounts of silicon although the leaks about next gen xbox strongly suggest it has a much larger chip set than ps6, in line ...
You think the hybrid pc with an xbox brand is going to sell any better than current gen xbox? If they cut price of games pass its going to go back to costing more to run than the profit they make. They made the changes they made out of necessity forced to by higher ups who had shareholders breathing down their neck. The new head of Microsoft Gaming may now want to reverse that but the genie doesnt go back in the bottle that easily. They'd have to run large losses for years in the hope tha...
It's far too late because the next xbox IS going to cost a hell of alot more than the next PlayStation. Thr fact the die size is like double the size indicates this. It will be more powerful in terms of rasterisation but with diminishing returns that won't be the end of the world and with the ps6 likely to be expensive but a hell of alot less expensive (and Sony able to subsidise the price k owing their consumers buy alot of games that they get a cut of, whereas the xbox will apparen...
Honestly, couldn't care less. If they release their games on ps great, if it's a game I want I'll buy it. If they don't? Their loss, maybe when I have the money I'll upgrade my pc and either buy them for pennies in a sale or pirate them, depends on the game. Any major original ip of theirs I'd buy. If they go down the road of making titles like Elder scrolls 6 exclusive for example- then fuck them I'll pirate it (and I cant remember the last time I pirated a game.....
The cost of the consoles is outside of their control, they aren't going to sell at a loss when they aren't making money off games sales cos xbox players hardly buy any games thanks to games pass, which costs far too much to run and make the first party titles for. The console prices are determined by various global factors effecting hardware atm.
Well that service is dead now lol
Long essay I cba to read all of it. Firstly it means nixxes will be freed up to remaster and remake older games as they have already been doing of late also means they are able to support songs other studios more as well.
Ultimately clearly Sony dont think there is value in releasing on pc or at least they feel that the negatives outweigh the positives and see doing so as detrimental to their console business else they wouldn't be making these moves.
...
Because if you are one of the winners the money it makes is insane. It makes it worth the risk.
The cancellation had nothing to do with bungie. Listen to what he says. They did a review of the resources the game would require to maintain and decided as a studio they wanted to do what they knew best not commit all in on this new experimental thing.
Error the price hike effects hardware as well. By all accounts ps6 is designed to be able to be made as cheap as possible. Which should mean it's cheaper than ps5 pro at the very least. Pc parts are effected by increased hardware costs too so they have an obvious market position as the more affordable alternative and once people are in their ecosystem they are unlikely to abandon libraries and switch
So the ps6 might well be cheaper than the pro. So firstly ram prices should be starting to decrease by next year and it will be a specific long term contract for the ram on a large scale, it's a new fabrication aswell that doesn't even exist currently. Then you have the fact the die size should be smaller. PS5 is what 7nm die size and ps6 is meant to be 2nnm fabrication so the actual chip set should be using less silicon and be smaller. They will likely switch some of the cooling mate...
This price hike is due to global shipping costs. Sony have had to suspend sales of their SD cards as have Samsung die to silicon shortages.... Alot of these process rely on helium and such and slot of the world supply comes from gulf states.
You think they want to? They likely don't have a choice. This recent price rise is clearly due to increase in global shipping costs.
Appears to be a Marmite game. Either reviewers love it or they really dislike it but ofc can't give it lower than a 6 because it's presentation is great graphics wise and it isn't a buggy mess.
Then its the master account. Even so you do still need to log in periodically for the licenses to renew. I think its like once every 6 months atm....
