We've been hearing "Wait for game X to get VR and everyone will have to jump in!" for years now, and VR is still not taking off.

Those games would be good VR experiences - but 99% of gamers will still just play the game 'normally'.

Do you mean like when people were port begging for Zenimax games & Starfield to still come to other platforms...?

1777d ago 3 agree9 disagreeView comment

@masterfox It's been about ~40 days since they acquired Zenimax... maybe give them some time? Obviously they will have things to share at E3.

@Zhipp There were insider rumors going around that MS were talking to Ubisoft to strike a similar deal to that of EA Play and would announce at E3 / later this year, and also that a 'AAA third party FPS game' is coming to GP Day 1 in Holiday 2021... so that would suggest COD or BF, and it obviously won't be COD since they have a PS marketing deal.

I guess we'll see - either or both of those would make for a huge E3 bombshell announcement.

I didn't say it isn't a game changer - it is - but only for <= 3% of gamers...

If they're over 23 mil by now, I expect them to get to 30mil by EOY without Battlefield or Ubisoft. BF and Ubisoft would likely put them way over 30m.

Same! Hoping R* might be doing something with it since they updated the PC version to have free DLC this week...

MP3 back compat + MP4 reveal would be an awesome announcement.

Maybe, who knows. But I am interested to see if they would overtake switch without production limits.

And yet we still can’t play our MGS4 disks via back compat in official Sony hardware because emulating the CELL is too hard for a multi billion dollar company with some of the best engineers.

Loved MGO though - it was seriously underrated!

This came out of nowhere... and damn, 120hz - their backwards compatibility work is really technically impressive.

Seems likely - we haven’t seen an update in a while on numbers (unless I missed it?) - so they’re probably in the 20’s now and Halo is going to be huge.

Keep the good games flowing in and they’ll hit 50 in no time.

Good week for the switch. At this point we are just seeing Sony and Microsoft sell whatever they can produce in that window, so not really true/comparable numbers yet until supply outstrips demand.

Once all the manufacturing issues are gone, it will be interesting to see how the new consoles really stack up against the Switch.

They’re talking about it in terms of environment, characters, gameplay - things that everyone experiences.

Adding PSVR support is only going to benefit a tiny percentage of players.

@S2Killinit “ You say that now, but as time goes on, the exclusives add up”

Isn’t this obvious and true for every console? As time goes on, consoles will obviously get more games.

@S2Killinit

Reading comprehension is important. I put ‘scary’, not scary - because he isn’t talking about scary as in horror games.

What’s off with my comment? I found the title weird because it’s effectively saying it’s the best in some categories where there is nothing or barely anything to compare with.

That being said, I still approved the article. Not sure why you’re so up in arms over my opinion :)

"Gamepass was created because Xbox had low software sales and no exclusive games."

Ignoring the fact that Xbox obviously has software sales (judging by their earnings) and exclusive games - no logical person would argue the opposite.

This isn't how businesses work. Gamepass was created to boost revenue. Sony/MS/Nintendo could sell 1 trillion consoles and make 100 trillion in revenue, they would still be looking for ways to increase that reve...

I read the article too - which part of my statement regarding the headline is incorrect?

1777d ago 5 agree25 disagreeView comment

A far worse service with a more lackluster offering and barely any recent 1st party games?

I wouldn't even put them in the same category, hence my ask that they give us a GP equivalent.

Excited if true, but it's Konami - so I guess we'll get the unveiling of MGS1 remake Pachinko.

"The Scariest, Most Ambitious PlayStation 5 Exclusive Yet"

Bit of a weird headline when there's only a couple of PS5 exclusives, and none are 'scary' games.
