Fair point, but I don't think even Mark Cerny knew that the economy was about to get a LOT worse in the upcoming years when he said the comment about the PS4 Pro and PS5. Look how many studios have closed in the last few years? Even Microsoft Xbox has been scaling back many of it's releases. Games may or may not technically harder to make , but they're DEFINITELTY much more expensive to do so. The glory days of the PS2/PS3/Xbox 360 where you would get a ton of 1st part titles are...
Fanboys...inevitable as death and taxes...
Agreed. Oliver from Digital Foundry also echoed those sentiments. He mentioned he has a very high end PC...but most of his time is spent on his PS5 when it comes to gaming. Get whatever works for you
Not sure if Sony would ever make a gaming PC...but it would be very bad news if there were no more consoles, because you would have only two choices to make Nvidia or AMD GPU...and I think AMD isn't going to be competing with Nvidia on the high end GPU's anymore.
So if Sony 'allegedly' priced the PS5 Pro the way that it did as it didn't think they had any competition from the Xbox. what do people think Nvidia's going to do?
Well said. I think all time used up by hating either side of the argument could be better spent on something else...like gaming lol
It's nuts, people want amazing first party games, they don't want the game devs to work too hard, avoid crunch...yet they think these games get quicker to make than the last generation?
Every new generation takes longer to make games that fully utilise the hardware of the said generation...if you don't understand that, maybe play some smaller indie games while you wait....or stop gaming
I'm not buying the PS5 pro, but one thing bothers me about the arguments to build a PC and someone always says:
"You can do a lot more with a PC"
I'm an analyst and a photographer / videographer and in my spare time, I train local AI models. I own a Asus Zephyrus Duo 16 with a RTX 4090 (laptop version of course) with 16GB vram, 96GB ram and 2X 4TB ssd with 7400 read and 6500 write.
I only use my laptop for the things...
My 'tip' is buying good games.
LOL!!! I remember the original....unfortunately
@SimpleSlave sorry mate but looking at you dislikes, seems some people are still not versed in the art of sarcasm...
But yeah I agree with you.
lol oh those poor executives...
This is happening all over the world in all sectors. I work for a trading company in the UK, and they've just laid off 300 people in 3 months . Metro bank laid off 800 people. It's going to get a lot worse everywhere
@SoloGamer1 Don't bother, some gamers are really retarded, think they're entitled to have everything their way and don't actually know the meaning of the word 'optional'...but since I'm in a good mood as I've just platinum'd this great game:
Definition of optional adjective from the Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary
optional adjective
that you can choose to do or have if you want to
There are a LOT of stupid people out in this world...and trailers like these draw them in.
For some perspective, GTA 5 cost around $265 dollars to make
Unfortunately, if people are stupidly willing to constantly donate to it, it won't be
That's literally the of only reason why my original Psvr is still plugged in! Wipeout VR is amazing!!!!
...and some people wonder why we get so many remakes instead of new IP'S. Unfortunately/fortunately (depending on what you think) this is why. Why spend money and risk people not buying your new IP, when you can pump less money remaking an established franchise?
Interesting, did American gamers get punished for when America invaded Iraq, killed thousands...just to find that there were no WMD's in the first place? Didn't think so...
Goddamn, the game literally came out today! What is wrong with people
I realised I've been doing exactly this recently. Watching a ton of YouTube videos and not finding anytime left to play games. Unsubscribed from a ton of channels. It also keeps me away from a lot of negativity from ungrateful, entitled brats. Games are meant to be enjoyed....now back to playing Robocop :-)
