Just a fact check here. If you have XBO X Forza Horizon is already at 60 FPS in 4K.
This is MS marketing touting something they already did in the game.
Really all that is changing is load times... which is a significant thing.
Forza Horizon 4 doesn't need re-reviewing. It is at 92 on Metacritic. Not many racing games get that kind of score or anywhere near that score.
What a great first half for 2021!
Can't wait for GT, Returnal and R&C. Better get on picking up a PS5 early in the new year.
LOL. That may be too early.
Ghosts took me about 25 hours and the first spider-man took me about 19 hours on my first play throughs.
This looks to be about half, which Insomniac told us a while back.
Also, this is really only a SP game, so being that short should be reflected more in the price.
It is better then the high end product of the last generation.
It supports fast SSD, more memory, a faster CPU, and modern GPU functionality at 1440p...
THE ONLY THING THAT MAKES IT LESS THEN XBO X IS THAT IT DOES NOT RENDER IN 4K. FOR THAT IT USES HARDWARE UPSCALING SO THAT IT CAN DELIVER A 4K PICTURE.
Personally I want to see Series S compared to XBO S.
I don't know why they are comparing the high end console last gen with the low end console of this gen.
Apples-to-Apples would be XBO S compared with XSS.
nd that is exactly what they are targeting. Not everyone can afford a next gen console but MS is making a console available that will play every game that is released on XSX for $200 cheaper. There are a lot of people where $200 is a huge deal. And this console allows them to play next gen games a lower price point.
Not sure why this is bad. If you can afford a XSX you can go get the premium next gen experience. If you can't afford XSX they offer something that i...
Microsoft has been clear. This console will play next gen games at a reduced rendering resolution and use hardware upscaling to achieve 4K. Everyone keeps on slagging this console for no reason. Nobody is forced to buy it.
This is like someone who buys a new 2021 Ferrari for $400k saying that a new 2021 Corvette owner who paid $90k did not buy a sports car. They are both sports cars. They just have different price points and features. As long as the XB Series S is not...
Maybe you have a library of Backwards Compatible games and don't want to constantly be installing and uninstalling those games to the internal drive?
The interesting thing here is that although the XB Series has a slower throughput by several multipliers, its actually performing faster for BC stuff.
Now that has nothing to do with performance when a game is using the SSD as a true next gen game, but this does show that the performance "secret sauce" many people have talked about on PS5, at least in this case is not all that much better. In fact, in this video it was consistently slower from next to nothing s...
New doesn't make anything better. Gaming value makes things better in the console space.
I don't think either console has done a great job bringing gaming value in their new consoles.
On Sony we get a new UI that makes it more like XB. They have Demon's Soul (a remade game) and Destruction All-Stars as the big two first party PS5 exclusives. Souls has a following but it is not a 10 million copy game. it is more like 1-3 million. Destru...
@LegoisAwesome
No it is not only about the "PC Beggar Race" it is about gamers that don't want to be fanboys and stuck on a specific device to play all their favorite games.
That's one of the things that separates a gamer from a fanboy. Fanboys love exclusives, gamers want as many other gamers as possible to experience the games too. The world has a ton of have and have nots driven by greed and eliteness. Gamers don't have to be this way to...
I am on the fence with this game like I was with Marvel Avengers.
It is showing better and better, but not sure what the actual game experience will be like.
@Hellcat2020
LOL. I am not trying to downplay it, I am simply stating facts.
I can play Spider-man MM, AC Vahalla, Watch Dog Legions, CyberPunk 2077, Sackboy's Adventure, etc. on my PS4 Pro. Don't see why anyone would spec $400-500 + accessories for a new console just to play Demon's Soul or Destruction All-Stars.
Will play Godfall on my PC if after reviews it looks like it is a should buy.
You are allowed to do...
So what are your "8 nextgen games"?
I only see two real launch exclusive nextgen games... Demon's Soul Remake and Destruction All-Stars....
The rest all ship on PS4 as well so how can you really call them next gen games?
I don't think anyone mentioned MS in this thread until you did. lol
@KeenBean345
The XB game listed for November is just Bright Memory not Bright Memory Infinite.
I just want people to not mistake the November game with the future game.
I hope people realize that this game is only about a 1.25 hour game.

It is only $7.99 but people need to realize what they are getting into.
The trailer does say X | S.... And then goes on to say 60 FPS and faster load times. Also says 4K but we all know that will be hardware upscaled.
If you haven't played Forza Horizon 4 on XB, you haven't played the best arcade racer of this last generation.
