If they somehow make the Series X steam (and windows) compatible and grant access to some of that library, then this may give Sony a serious run for their money. Microsoft is presenting a very decent PC gaming alternative package here... The line is pretty blurred.
Sony will still draw multitudes towards their exclusives, but while MS builds their way there, they could easily take a whole new market.
That is Hardly the case. A big pool of assets is created and you can "design" a generic interior in a matter of hours, tops, specially if it is a random room that is there for the sake of making the world larger. The heavy work load lies in the key scenarios that need a unique look, and most games will rehash assets for those too (at least the small stuff). Just pay attention to any big open world game... same bottles, chairs, windows, doors, cuttlery, etc. It's not only a matte...
So he is seeking to exterminate the term... I wonder if he came up with a final solution to this dilema...
Semi permanent nerve damage... Well it is either permanent or not. Talk about an hyperbole.
Sure... coming from a person who could not be bothered to re write his thoughts in an alternate way on two different websites... ;P
The X version will more likely be the better one, since this is a multi platform title, and the X has more powerful hardware. So, yes, this statement is probably true. i still wouldn't buy an X JUST for RRDR2. this gen I went for PS4 (due to several RRODs last gen) and later Switch. And I am happy with this, I do believe that the exclusives are more numerous and appealing on PS4 (at least to me) than on Msoft's side, there are still great games there, whcih I enjoy on PC when possible...
It's a game... a virtual thing. There are no "adults" or "consent"... so in GTA when I run over people or blow them to kingdom come it is ok because they face the camera and give their consent about being run over right at the very last moment? Cause I missed those animations if they are there... Or is it ok because murder and wanton violence are ok as opposed to rape?
How is THIS any different? Because if you believe this game will CREATE or even en...
PC is gonna be for me... :D love my consoles but if I get the chance, I much rather play this on PC
wow... talk about a sour person. Whatever happened to lighthearted comments on the internet, buddy.
special mention to Zero mission... I just love that game.
Looks great. A good dose of system shock... some Gta... some deus ex... great environments, FPS action looks good. And open world to boot. Add to all that the fact that they still got time and room to improve.
This and RDR2 are my most awaited titles for the year. Spiderman has my attention too, but I need to get me a PS4 pro for that. I could not even get through God of War on my normal PS4. Thing sounds like a jet engine, it's just unplayable, loudest piece of hardwar...
Wow... just wow. So a person cannot prefer a stylized game with a very particular art style. Since when polygon count, and shaders and photo realism is all that counts? If BOTW is his cup of tea over anything Sony has done, then fine. I personally think it is one of the most beautyful looking games of the last few years. technically it may be surpassed by many titles, no doubt... but please, stop being performance wh0res... there is so much more to a games looks than JUST that. Art direction ...
oh gimme a break... ffs.
what?...
Of course! when you have a console that sold below 14 million units in it´s lifetime, and a lineup of really good games it would be bad business not to bring those titles to it´s successor, a console that outsold the Wii U in it´s first year in the market. The investment and effort is a fraction of that of developing an entire game form the ground up and a big part of those adopters probably have not owned a Wii U.
On the other hand, to answer to @JaguarEvol...
you are either still in the earlier years of elementary school or can´t grasp the concept of area...
Here´s another magic trick, diagonally, from corner to corner the map is 16,97 miles long. And it doesn´t say it anywhere in the article, a gnome just whispered that into my ear. It freaked the sh*t outta me.
I haven´t played this shooter yet. Mainly cause it did not grab much my attention and I now live in Germany and I did not want the censored version (allegedly it is just the swastikas and some other character?) still I skipped it... but now that it is coming to swithch I may give this playing a full blown FPS mobile and see where it goes...
@IamTylerDurden1 69 is a good number, I think everyone likes a good 69 every now and again? nothing bad there...
Is it already out? for all I know the setting and plot could completely justify the design choices they made. Why is shock value necessarily a marketing stunt? It can be a deliberate choice that works in favor of the narrative and gameplay too...
@VenomUK I cannot imagine they both would be unaware of the other's move. They are simply too big of companies for corporate espionage to not be possible. Leaks and specs are probably well known accross the board on both teams. You may be able to keep a small reveal up your sleeve from your rival. But the days of complete secrecy are far gone...
