I'm not casting a double standard, I'm asking you to give Microsoft the same time that it took Sony to develop anything worthwhile...

Also let's not forget they've closed studios and dumped staff also...

As far as developing new IP, Guerilla Games was purchased in 2005 by Sony. Horizon Zero Dawn was release 2017.

My point? Why don't you give Microsoft 12 years with these studios before you judge them? They aren'...

I'm just praying the frame rate is unlocked so I can get 40fps with VRR... That will be very playable for me

It is a surprisingly fun game.... I hope it holds my attention now than 6 months, I fear it might get repetitive faster than bigger games do...

So your problem is that they bought studios that already proved their value? Well, that's why they paid so much instead of gambling like Sony did for years. Sony took a lot of chances because the competition was slim. Microsoft doesn't have the luxury of time, because fanboys are criticizing everything they do. Because of that, they have to spend larger amounts of money on studios that already have a proven value and IP because they don't have 20 years to let it grow, they have to...

So you think Sony doesn't want you to buy into their ecosystem? You think they bought these studios and made first party exclusives diy any reason other than to get you to buy into their ecosystem? I hate to tell you, but it's the same thing. Sony has better PR right now due to fanboy mentality.

Also, Sony didn't communicate these studios, they grew. Come back in 10 years, since it took Sony 15 years for most of the studios to develop, and let's see where Mi...

Since you don't know your video game history, here's a site that shows you all of their studios, and when they bought them. Please note the major ones, like Naughty Dog, Guerilla Games, all started off as 3rd party studios.

So again, what upsets you is they bought more than Sony can afford? Sony, over the years, has purchased almost all of their studios. Microsoft just did it quicker and all at once.

I guess you really don't know your video game history...

Yes, Microsoft has made the largest single purchase in video game history. And Sony immediately bought Bungie to keep up. The below might not be the same, but Sony bought studios before Microsoft even got their feet we...

Ohhhh... My bad, so what upsets you is that they paid more than Sony can afford?

You DO realize most of Sony's 1st party studios started off as 3rd party studios, right? They purchased them a long time ago, and now you seem to forget that they grew in the same way Microsoft is today, just Microsoft has a much, much larger bank account....

It's not pure BS, it's a fact.

Naughty Dog was founded in 1984, acquired in 2001 by So...

Actually, they purchased studios, but promised not to lock away any existing franchises. Only future, new IP.

In case you weren't sure... This is the same thing Sony has done for years and it's what got them where they are ...

Microsoft is just catching up with big studios Sony can't afford.

If they can hit 40 I'll be ok, it usually solves the control latency issue. But I'll be honest, 30fps night look pretty but I find it unplayable

Because the market stopped growing... And the exclusives cost too much to sell to only a segment of the market...

Did that help?

679d ago 1 agree6 disagreeView comment

They are indeed a selling point. But even Sony has announced that the profit margin on exclusives are slim. Loss leader method no longer works...

And if only we had a 33.5tf console without CPU bottlenecks...

I've already seen 40fps modes utilized in great ways, and I'll tell you, the difference is greater than you'd expect. 40fps is playable, I didn't feel 30fps is playable anymore...

I love that there is not 1, but 2 main articles bashing this game hard before it comes out. If you don't start the negative marketing early enough it'll never stick...

And let the Sony Pony negativity marketing begin! Gotta down play every Microsoft game before it comes out so you can give it a bad taste by the time it comes out...

Getting sick of this

Yeah I strictly play games for the trophies also ... 🙄

It runs a solid 60 minus some act 3 stuff on Xbox, game runs just fine... Haven't had any bugs and thankfully I dodged whatever was causing the game save bug

Yeah the last few definitely have fallen flat. Starfield was a huge disappointment... I liked it but not as much as I expected

Right! It's almost like they learned from another competitor that released a disc less flagship system... 🤔🤔🤔
