Right, but that's your opinion. It's not my job nor the purpose of a news article to say "David Jaffe said this and THIS IS WHY HE'S WRONG AND IRRELEVANT."

He's entitled to his opinion and he's allowed to defend himself when he is attacked for that. His response is interesting and newsworthy.

@REDGUM

I don't know what to say to this. There's no outcome to his comments?...

That's all fair and I could've included much of it, but it's not really relevant to the story specifically. He was attacked for his comments on PS5 and he defended himself. The comments were unfair (what does his recent game work have to do with his thoughts on Sony's chances next-gen?).

Anything else I think just gives fire for or against him and, ultimately, it's a news story, not an opinion piece.

Thanks for the civil reply though....

What more would you like?

It has what he was accused of, what his response was, and it has the context of his original video too.

What else is relevant to this story?

Thanks! Managed to get one at Amazon while still refreshing those pages, but feel pretty lucky at that.

To be fair, I got a PlayStation 5 with literally no effort last week. Loaded page, added it into basket. I should've known it wouldn't be that easy twice in a row.

I had Smyths and Game open, just out of interest. Smyths crashed and then said it had run out of every Xbox type (including the One S), while Game still has me in a queue. In "more than an hour" I might be eligible for All Access, but something tells me it'll just load into a 505 error.

An excellent game and absolutely gorgeous. Still have miles to go before the expansion is worth thinking about though.

I'm waiting for another Bad Company game. Why put out generic military shooters when you have something far more unique and, dare I say it, marketable up your sleeve?

Same. This was always going to be low priority for a lot of people for a whole host of reasons.

The enticement stage should have been months ago.

It's looking great. Now just to finish the plats for 2 and 3.

As always, not much of a surprise. It's close enough that people won't notice unless they go out of their way to look and most people just don't care.

@2pacalypsenow

To be fair, he said his Xbox One runs games just fine, and he's not wrong.

The difference between 900p and 1080p isn't enough to say it's game-breaking by any stretch, and suggesting it needs new hardware to fix this problem seems a little extreme.

On the other hand, he had no reason to go around saying anything was moronic, so swings and roundabouts.

Loads of great stuff I won't get to until Christmas.

Millions? It probably will, to be fair. It's more expensive than Move, but I'm guessing if that device can ship as much as it did, the hype around VR will help it sell.

Millions is vague though. One million would be a disappointment and a surprise for everybody. 50 million would be insane and a surprise for everybody.

The ideal situation is to own everything. Upto that there's just personal opinion. Why do people pick iOS over Android, and vice versa?

There's no wrong option when it comes to buying a console. Unless you pick an Ouya, obviously.

It's probably pretty common to have to deal with problems like this while porting. That's the whole point. The important thing - and it seems like these devs realise this - is making sure you solve those issues BEFORE release.

Not surprising and not a bad thing. PC should be pretty much standard at this point. Long sale life as digital prices drop, and backwards compatible indefinitely.

The positives longterm outweigh the shortterm 'exclusive' label.

Disappointing, but I guess that's part of the risk for people who play games pre-release.

It's something you've got to expect gets fixed for the full release though.

Value is subjective. Peoplewill buy it now if they want to, or wait for deals and offers, or a GOTY edition, after the price increase.

"Complain on the internet" is another option, but you don't get much back for it.

They're aren't many games that were dreadful in a beta that massively improved by launch. Saving gave at this point.

This is going to be absolutely the most important factor for them at this point. It doesn't matter how good it is or what's on offer, the market needs to be able to afford it.
