According to the article this article has been influenced by the san diego studio was it's whole other thing. They went to sony as a team of 30 wanting to have their own project separate from the support work. they wanted to remake the last of us in the latest version of ND engine so it could be packaged with tlou2 on ps5 and should be not too expensive for sony and prove they can run their own project from there they wanted to remake the original uncharted- which they'd rather have s...
it hasn't died it's been restructured to focus on it's original and core purpose; assisting in the production of games.
see the difference there is 2 titles releasing years later and every title releasing simultaneously.
You mean them discontinuing support for out of warranty ones and ceasing manufacture in summer 2019 wasn't enough notice...
I mean they discontinued manufacturing of the vita 2 years ago... so really as a dev you had to know the clock was clicking surely? I think you'd have to be nuts to put any money into a new project for a device that sold so few units, got such little support and had stopped being manufactured.
I think when you take off the cost of maintaining abd running the servers, the cost of paying 3rd party devs and publishers to have their content on there for periods of time, the cost of making 1st party games for it etc no it probably isn't profitable and I have no idea where you go the 300 million a month revenue figure from?
Except you won't own the game and it will cycle of the service at some point.... plus most of the games on games pass are on ps now. Mlb will be within a few months and end of the day it's a baseball game 🤣😂 better off going outside an delaying baseball imo it's like fifa I've never really understood the point if the games tbh.
Yes but you don't own it on games pass and there is no guarantee it will be on there forever.... I'd rather buy games I'm keen on getting tbh.... but that's just me. Gamespass will be great for first party titles but beyond that games will cycle on and off and I'd rather own those. Again games pass isn't profitable- Sony have ps now which isn't quite up to the same thing in terms of day one releases as Sony have said already because if they did this they'd not ...
Um no one's going todo that because the ps3 servers are dead, you can still download content you own you just can't buy new content. Pretty sure MS discontinued xbox live support for the 360 awhile ago now and I know they did pretty early on for OG xbox games.
If you understand how the pa3 works you would understand why they haven't bothered with backwards compatibility compatibility only realistic way due to how it handled memory in particular is to put the pa3's Chipset in the ps4/5. The ps2 literally had a ps1 inside it and then later they created an emulator for ps3 but games needed some re-engineering. Initially the ps3 had literally a ps2 inside it but this was considered too expensive given the high cost of the ps3 and was eventually...
Erm "more games are optimised for series x" Well that's nonsense based on the analysis of multiplatforn games which consistently release running better on ps5 and require patches to bring the xbox up to par a month or two down the line.
Transferring data from ps4 to 5 already is easy as pie thee is a transfer feature, external hod's literally you just unplug and plug into new console and there are cloud saves.... which you can setup to auto download and sync as for...
But if you didn't own the ps4 you get most of its top exclusives for free and some of the top multiplat titles from last gen also free via ps plus collection if you get pa now you get even more titled at your disposal spanning multiple generations...
Trust me you don't want to play godfall you might think you do but you probably don't.
The switch is both a handheld and a home console gaming machine so to compare it to either if the consoles released just for home console gaming would be decidedly unfair tbh.
Wrm most if their titles are on ps now going back to ps2 and ps1. They could improve the ps1 and ps2 offerings but tbh the market share that give a shit about that is absolutely tiny so it's hardly a priority.
I mean I have games pass on my pc and ps now on PlayStation and we'll I've paid 1 pound for games pass to date making it the better value atm hahaha not sure how economical that is for Microsoft long term though? The services are actually highly comparable. Streaming I have no issue with even when my Internet is being heavily used by family. My Internet is also not as good as it coukd be but its also better than average I'd say but not by much. The more recent titles can ofc be do...
OK anyone on about ps3 backwards compatibility via an emulator clearly does not know what they are talking about. Because of the cell processor's architecture it is a bloody difficult thing to emulate. That is true now as it was 5 years ago and still will be in 5 years time. Its uniquely something that isn't straightforward to use new gen hardware to brute force because the most complex aspect is how the code dealt with memory on the ps3. There is a blog post somewhere by a software d...
If they have just clearly canned a ps5 version of the game that's been in development years and is almost ready to release they can kiss goodbye to my money.
That isn't actually what he said. He said some titles would be exclusive to platforms with games pass. Thst they would fulfil all contractual obligations he left it open however as to if all games would be exclusive to platforms with games pass or if there would be some exceptions.
LOL yeah that is why Sony just bought Insomniac...
