Unfortunately, this happens to include a few reasons why I refuse to game online with strangers. Too many idiots, immature and racist people. Socializing with toxic people like that takes away from the idea on why we play. Which is to have a good gaming experience.
Parents need to keep a better eye on their kids and the media (movies, music, games, etc.) they interact with. Sad but necessary.
I'm sure there will be people who will disagree, but the X is such a great value. Enhanced backward compatible titles, great multimedia device (emphasis on the 4k player) and games that actually run in native 4k. Sure, people will complain about its 1st party titles, but I'm glad I bought the Scorpio edition at launch.
Consoles can't play games at 4k 60fps with consistency, but at least they look pretty good for a fraction of a Gpu that costs over a grand.
What I like about the Horizon franchise is the theme of a grand party that involves cars. You somewhat feel like you are a part of the festivities. And to add to your point @alb1899, there are a plethora of activities to do. Things just never seem to get stale.
They probably don't want everyone uploading their backup saves all at the same time at a specific speed.
Why are we just seeing Nes games if they can also release a "basic emulator" for Super Nintendo and N64?? Typical Nintendo. Slowly reeling us in on their time. Luckily for me I game on multiple platforms.
Money.
Microsoft is trying their best to attract the consumer to their console (Live, game pass, purchases of studios, etc.). Even though they lack the 1st party presense that Sony has with their quality studios, they are making moves so consumers see what the Xbox brand has to offer.
Why are people disagreeing with you? This is a fact. Good God almighty some people are such soft babies.
Brilliant sequel. Blasto: Up Uranus. The setting takes place on a planet that is either made of a taco or the planet's inhabitants love tacos. You know, too much Mexican can lead to your ass blasting, or in this case, blasto!
Why does the unofficial title of the game remind me of the old PS One game Blasto? I'm calling it.
Microsoft is not playing around. They will be a nice addition. Hopefully these recently acquired studios are supported and stay in operation.
I just hope the speed of the game is reminiscent of Melee. The others don't feel the same.
Spoken like a true Sony caveman.
Don't confuse being able to release a game every other year with beautiful graphics, cars with attention to detail (meaning inside and out without skimping on the inside of cars to brag about the number in the game), and great tracks, just to name a few, which Forza does, to the alternative which is Gran. Polyphony struggles to release a finished product, even with the many years it takes to release one. I played the original and Gran 2 (my personal favorite). They now are a shell of them...
This story is years too late. Forza has been king for many years now.
I remember when this came out back in the day. I'm very interested with how this turns out. Hopefully it's received well so Sony can support it going forward.
