Sony doesn't have a monopoly. They simply make great games, work with third parties, just like Nintendo to gain dominance.
All MS has to do is make consistently good games but they can't even do that correctly. Playing the victim card for their shortcoming like it's anyone else fault but their own is backwards
More than half of what MS shown is also coming to PS. They're clearly talking about what was shown at the showcase...
Of all the games MS showed you chose Avowed for your argument. A game being torn apart for its change in direction and free to play looking artstyle. They had some great games on show but Avowed weren't one of them lol
This. Ive always bought console at launch but if this gen is anything to go by there's literally no point anymore.
It's not perfectly fine. Game development is taking longer than ever. Exclusives are becoming alot more spread out. I still find it funny how we're 3 years in and there's been less than 10 games that have felt truly next gen.
The game ain't for me (I don't rate Bethesda Softworks. They get away with a lot that other game developers get scrutinised for) but it does seem a lot of Xbox fans are happy with Starfield, even with the 30fps news. The hype seems very real even if the game did nothing to peak my interest.
I don't get people who want an all digital future for consoles. I'm a console gamer but being restricted to Sonys/Microsoft's/Nintendo s shop means no competition in pricing. With PC there's a number of places to buy games but on console you'd be stuck at paying top price for it all because people have become to lazy to change a disk
I miss E3. I know for whatever reason, some people are happy for it to be gone but the presentations and the crowd reactions made it feel special. The hype is never the same for these showcases. I get why companies do their own but E3 dying lost some of gamings magic. Game fest is cool but it's never the spectacle that E3 was
Not really ok topic but kind of is, there's huge double standards in gaming, Bethesda's games being proof of it. There's no reason why their games get high scores with the state they are in with bugs, dated graphics, some of the worst voice acting in gaming but other games get slaughtered for
Praise the lord it's nothing like MGSV. That game butchered everything that made MGS a true MGS experience
Here's someone who's just learned the term woke but doesnt know in what context to use it
@Outsider, we don't know the scale of the game yet. I'd be happy with the exact same formula as the original Factions but the time they are putting in suggests it's a lot more ambitious than the first. What if it was the Factions we love but on a bigger scale. What if the maps were a bigger in size, with higher player counts than the original with clickers and infected in certain areas which contain better loot.
I'm not saying go full survival like Day Z at ...
I wish more games in general would opt for open hub areas rather than open world. Open world games magic quickly for me. I want to keep exploring new locations and witnessing massive set pieces. Open world games have all nearly merged into one style. It's become very boring.
Imagine there's actual humans that think this way.
How are you calling out Sony for making "Ubisoft rip offs". Almost every studio (not all, but the vast majority) that make open worlds follow the same gameplay loop. Go here, kill this, collect that, clear this camp, sprinkle in a few hundred collectables and I've just listed a vast majority of open world games from the past 5-10 years. It's lazy game design that the whole industry has adopted.
I personally wouldn't. I don't feel there's been any games have been held back from lack of power. I feel there's only been a handful of games that have truly shown us us what next gen can do. I really want last gen to be dropped so we can finally see what these machine can produce. Sonys own studios seem to be the only ones showing us what next gen is atm. Everything else seems like last gen with faster loads times and a higher frame rate.
The PS4 Pro made ...
New and emerging market? Like we haven't heard streaming being the future for decades. Just like mobile was supposed to be the end for consoles. No one is pissed at this decision except fanboys.
No, The Darkzone was the reason so many still play D1 to this day. It was an extraction mode before the mode was even made popular. The DZ was not the only place you could earn powerful loot either? Did you enter there before the end game?
I think is going to rock COD more than people expect it to. Alot of people don't like the slower paced route they've taken COD (I like both the slower and the more fast arcade style of COD) and liked the more fast paced arcade shooters that COD had abandoned with focus shifting to BR and DMZ, BR of which is universally disliked compared to the first WZ.
Content creators are all surprised by how well this is minus net code, something Ubisoft has said it's redoing...
I still play CoD every season and you are apart of the problem and anyone else who buys it. COD is in a rough state right now but you still throwing money at them. Do you think Activision sees all the negativity regarding the game when they can see people who will still throw money at it then wonder why none of the billion issues get addressed?
What's even funnier that they tried to pull this cash grab when the black and gold camps for characters and weapons were given ...
Unfortunately it won't happen because the same reviewers that were critical of FF16s flaws, will give Starfield 10/10s with the same or similar flaws, with all the usual dated jank and bugs that come with Bethesda games. They get a free pass for everything and the way the media are hyping Starfield already with that 7/10 presentation, nothing is set to change any time soon.
