Microsoft's strategy is one step ahead in almost every aspect. Two steps in this case.

I can see why they cancelled that game. The whole concept was bizarre, specially the coop portion. The main character was a copy paste of Dante from DMC and the overall mood was some kind of Final Fantasy meets DMC, including the music when fights started. The game didn't have its own identity.

Here's a good summary of what happened with this game: https://youtu.be/nhlJdfkhOK...

Nice to see Microsoft working on virtually every aspect of the experience for the next generation. I feel pampered as a consumer.

Enhanced BC is what XSX is offering, hance, I'd expect the same for PS5. They have the power to do so. I'm holding my arse to play TLOU2 and Ghost of Tsushima on PS4 Pro just because I'm having high hopes I will be able to do so @60fps on PS5.

Being them some of their big exclusivo, I'm hoping for special treatment here. I will absolutely give all props to Sony if they do that.

We need to know the price.

Probably. Looks like we're finally getting prices in August.

I'll try to get one before they they are swept off the virtual shelves.

Did they fix it though? So far, information about PS5 BC is very vague. I'd like to know how would games like Ghost of Tsushima or GOW improve on PS5.

Also, I think extremely poor cooling was a bigger mistake on PS4 and the lack of BC. Hope they also have this fixed.

Thing is... PS Now isn't a success because it's being done wrong and content is poor in comparison to Game Pass. Once xCloud arrives on GP Ultimate, it will make Microsoft's killer service... even more killer.

Btw.. Xbox Live was born thanks to Microsoft and if it dies, it will be because it's evolving into a much better service. PSN Plus didn't even exist back then, and they copied Xbox's business model down the road, after years of PS fans criticizing XBL. If anything, Sony made a lot of money thanks to Microsoft's initiative.

Now they're getting rid of it and you say it's because Microsoft runs its business around Sony. Allow me to have a laugh. =)

You're being way too conspiranoic here.

Microsoft is even lending a hand to Sony in order to have them compete in a market where otherwise, they wouldn't even be able to... Cloud:

As stated before by MS, their real competitors are Amazon and Google... that wasn't an allegor...

@ABizzel1

I see a huge flaw in that logic. There are a lot of people who just won't ever go into cloud gaming because they don't want to, or because they can't. The Internet infrastructure around the world isn't the same everywhere... there are markets where cloud gaming will just not be a thing for decades, and even if they can, there's always going to be the input lag and refresh rate. Placing a fast paced game on the cloud will never be the same exper...

This generation will be so much tougher for them though. PS5 will sell most likely at loss, and they will face stiff competition from Xbox.

Walk in the park is over.

Does it bother you that much? Xbox isn't going anywhere pal. MS isn't giving away that market to Sony.

Be prepared to see it everywhere starting this xMas. =)

Nice catch. Wonder what that logo means 😂

You're still too focused on the old version of the "console wars". But if it matters so much to you, yeah, Halo will also sell consoles. Not everyone's willing to spend USD 1,500 on a premium PC. I expect Ray Tracing implementation to do its job on selling the hardware. Halo's style is perfect for RT.

I believe it will be very hard to find a XSX consoles during the launch window and beyond.
