That leaves almost 100 million users with the poor options of purchase choice.
The vast majority of users can't find a PS5. What makes you imagine that 10% of the user base will be the vast amount of buyers when 90% of the user base are still stuck on PS4 because they can't buy a system that is not available to them?
I gotta come back to this thread after the event to see how many predictions were so wrong. lol
Not gonna lie... Sony is too invested in the 'Marvel's Avengers' game. It is not really good at all and focusing marketing towards it really does little for the bottom line.
As I told the other guy. 'GamePass' offerings are different than 'XBL Gold' offerings which is the 'PS Plus' equivalent. 'XBL Gold' is offered in 'GamePass Ultimate' but don't get the two confused.
It is 'Games with Gold' offered for the 'XBL Gold' which is included with GamePass Ultimate. GamePass has its own list of games that come out for it. At least get that straight.
Also they left out 'Lemnis Gate' which comes out 28 September and is highly anticipated.
"Deathloop - This is probably Sony’s last Bethesda game unless if Microsoft greenlit The Elder’s Scrolls VI to launch on PS5 because we know for a fact Starfield, once expected to release on Sony’s platform, is now an Xbox exclusive." - it's almost as if these guys are completely clueless about video games and simply search the internet for information. How did they miss that 'Ghostwire Tokyo' is also a timed exclusive on PS5 from Bethesda?
"Hunter is an all-new original character who will be fully customizable, both in abilities and appearance. According to the developers, the goal is to enable players to truly immerse themselves into the world, to be part of the world’s story as their own avatar, instead of taking on a previously established persona." - it is explained directly that Hunter will be your main character that you build to battle along side the other characters.
"Yes, performance on the new model should be tested, but I find it extremely unlikely that the new PS5 will perform any differently even if it were hotter than the old one." - when it all boils down at the end he simply states if it is hotter then it won't matter. He said nothing that changes the story in the least. He keeps saying we still need to test the heat (which he didn't) and that Sony hasn't gotten back with him. The only contention that was presented was the he...
To imagine that the hotter the temperature is on a device means the heat sink is doing better is simply not how it works. For sure the actual testing of a heat sink is done on the heat sink itself and not just testing ambient temperatures. But heat sinks dissipate heat over a larger area so it can be cooled. Which is what we saw in OG PS5 heatsink large copper area. Simply removing the large area and cutting down the heat sink and doing nothing more and then getting hotter temperatures as a r...
The heat sink is literally smaller. In no imagination does the idea the heat sink is doing better now that it is not as good fly. If you don't know how a heat sink works then why even comment?
They released Gears Tactics for console at the same time so you can't really count that out.
I mean people tried to count it out as anything worth talking about for console (rightfully so as it was not a console launch) when it released on PC so they can't have it both ways and also count it out when released for console.
"...this is devastating everybody because killbill said so" really? Did I once say it was devastating? But go ahead and keep doing your 'damage control'.
"2021 isn’t going to be a good holiday season for Sony now that Horizon 2 has been delayed." - literally the very first sentence from the article is counter to the headline. Unless you imagine having a bad holiday season doesn't matter. And if that is the case then nothing matters really anymore. lol
I mean sure it matters... maybe not as much in the long run, in the big picture of the universe but it matters.
Ouch... the amount of 'damage control' here. Worse heat sink... but hey the fan blades help resolve the issue with giving us a worse heat sink. But it still runs hotter... but hey only a few degrees that the fan can't compensate for. So we got a better system now? No, but Sony is saving money so you know... that is a good thing for us gamers? Again... Ouch.
Did you not watch the video? Included in the video is Insomniac Creative director talking directly on that point saying it could "never be done previous generations" and that aspects of the game "would not have been possible without the SSD of the PS5". Basically entire point is talked on at 3:00 minute mark of the video. Saying that it is only possible on the PS5 with its SSD is exactly saying that it can't be done on any other console... which includes Series X.
If you read on what devs commented on Ratchet & Clank they commented on many of the assets already being present as well use of simple skydomes. Watch the video and you will understand that the so called "completely different environment" really aren't what you imagine them to be.
Conversation here in comments appears to be more on scaling back and it would look terrible etc. That conversation is missing the point of discussion. Marketing talk was used in the 'can only be done on PS5 with their SSD'. It is true only in that the way they did it could only be done on PS5 with SSD. It could be done with other methods and of course with the scope of leveling graphics and frame rate to the console. This was pointed out by many people along the way but always dismiss...
"I'm just saying we're all freaking out about something that won't affect the vast majority of us." - how so? Vast majority of user base can't find a PS5 simply because they are not available to buy. 100+ million users are the VAST AMOUNT that are potentially being affected. Versus a fraction of that number that own a PS5.
