EA Access is the most successful. And that isn't even considering EA's other PC based services. It has a higher subscription number and it definitely does not have the same operating expenese that PSNow has to incur.
According to those numbers everyone plops around as proof of something in Q3 last year. It shows EA Acces with 16% and PSNow with 52% of $273 million of overall subscription revenue for one quarter (Q3) in 2018. But, that doesn't tell you much othe...
Just like it was bad for Sony to do it during the PS and PS2 generations. See Microsoft didn't start anything that is revisionist history. Sony had a long practice of blocking games from competing platforms a long while before Microsoft Xbox was even a twinkle in Bill Gates eye.
Wait I thought we all hated Activison. I could have sworn that was the take from every comment on every Activision related article before. Now Sony pays for special privledges for COD and Activision it is cool again. Make up your minds guys: good company or dealing with the devil?

What you mean a report created a couple of months after GP was released? That evidence? You might want to actually do research rather than continously proppping up the same report as proof other than snapshot of an very new GP - that was giving away service and had very little revenue stream at the time vresus a service (PSNow) that was over 3 1/2 years old at the time and charged twice as much. Even that report admitted the data they had was based on assumptions (a...
You get an upvote just for the very realistic expectations on the specs. 16GB yup! ~9TF GPU check. Ryzen check.
I definitely agree about the noise. I have an older Pro and it is fine. But, a friend, who has the same model Pro, has a console that when it is working hard the fan is so loud you literally can hear it outside his house. They supposedly have it working better now after three different model updates. I just want the PS5 to be quiet at the get-go for everybody, no...
To say never is inaccurate. Sorry, but there will be a time when the diminishing returns will rule the day with consoles They will just be too expensive to produce and support versus how many will actually buy them over streaming. Of course, game streaming with such a high adoption rate is very far in the future. But, it will happen. Neither Sony and Microsoft (Phil) have said it will be a while. Phil even went further out then a measly 5 years and mentioned several generations. But, neither...

Well, you left out the fact the Switch is demolishing the PS4 in Japan. In less than two years the Switch is on the cusp of selling more devices than PS4 has sold there in over five years. Seems you too like to leave out the little bits and pieces of how well Sony is doing everywhere.
First you would not need to emulate a PS4 on a PS5 if they have the same base architecture (like both being x86) That is why this "patent" is for architecture that is similar (it says so in the patent application itself) and it is not emulation The idea is to mimic certain calls (e.g. mapping) to the new architecture differences to replicate missing or differing features (not emulate a complete CPU design). It would take a lot more than just mapping to get PS3 to work and would be ...
"When a new version of the computer system ("new device") is released, it is desirable that the application written for the previous version system ("legacy device") run perfectly on the new device. This capability is often referred to as backward compatibility for "legacy applications".
Sorry, this has nothing to do with PS3 BC. You would not spoof or mimic calls for a PS3, a completely different architecture, you would emulate it fully....
@bluefox755 pass what? The Switch is a 9th gen console that is why the others have this so-called head start. The Switch is in the lead in the 9th gen not in the 8th gen (as the only device). Nintendo is dead last with WiiU in the 8th. It seems all Nintendo fans want to forget that other Nintendo device so much so they ignore that the WiiU it was Nintendos 8th gen device. A device that competed with both the PS4 and XB One generation before its very early demise.

I definitely have fewer brain cells after reading that for the second time. I can tell you are good with the cut and paste, can you do any other tricks?
@Gamingsince1981 WTF are you talking about? Short term memory issues? Less than a couple of weeks it was all about the PS5 with that hardware string breakdown. Several articles. Then it was Microsoft's Xbox unconfirmed rumors. Then somebody will complain about Xbox like you that it all about Xbox (forgetting about the rumor of the PS5 a month earlier). And something like this comes out. And will magically we will be talking about Sony with more unconfirmed rumors. A couple a weeks or so...
The only thing related with next-gen I expect (want) to hear about is XCloud. Anything else would be not very informative. The reason they did X it so early is because they had more than likely had knowledge of the PS4 Pro's capability and knew they could juxtapose the X easily against their competitions console arriving less than five months later.
The next-gen for either device is not happening this year and such a tease only would drive fanboys on both sides of the...
No it doesn't. PS3 supports digital out. So unless you have an additional AV unit hooked up to that stream that can decode that digtal bit stream you are not getting that Amos or DTS:X goodness. Xbox does not need the additional hardware to do the actual work.
Isn't Metro Exodus made with Unreal? I thought it was. If that is the case Epic will additionally not take their normal 5% revenue fee for Unreal based games published through their store. This all adds up to giving the developer a lot more money on each sale.
I hate having to do put "/s" but, people can't read inflection, even when it is obvious. Doing so makes it much easier to avoid dealing with those misplaced responses.
