Comment was from GPU standpoint
Most 'current-gen-only' games are runnable on the humble Steam Deck.
Wait they cancelled both Bluepoint's and Bend's games? Damn Bend has one of the worst lucks at Sony's.
And why live-service God of War game? à la Ascension? And military sci-fi ‘feel’ live-service game doesn't sound like SOCOM ... wait, its not Killzone or Resistance, right?
On a slightly separate note, this news also comes right after the Sony Decima news. That more Sony first party studios are encouraged to use the internal Decima engine. Coincidently,...

Have a feeling this is gonna be one of those 3rd party focused SoPs
coz their existing business model, 'just works' amd rakes in enough profit ... why take in extra complications
***Do we even need a PS6/XPrime so soon?***
Depends ... from PS5-Pro's perspective? Nups.
But from the only other participant/contributor in the 9th gen console phase's perspective, who fumbled with the Series S add-on? .... Maybe Yeps.
'Murican date format (courtesy of Nintendoo of 'Murica).
This has to be the 'mid'-est of all gaming console reveal. Not even a Direct! Let alone a separate special presentation. (all kept for later ... which seems less special)
Like as if, the Nintendo execs got fed up with the leaks and went "fine, just release the reveal.mp4, and be done with it for now ... will think of Directs and what not for later"
:P
ACII >>> AC4. ~ Its the best 'AC' game. Black Flag was a good pirate game, Odyssey is a good mythological RPG game. But are not better 'AC' game.
Odyssey? But that's totally different structure from the pre-Origins AC palette i.e of AC4 in this case.
That'd mean the AC4 Remake would be more akin to the RPG-ACs, which Black Flag was not and I'd definitely dont want that from the remake.
I am skeptical but am not totally dismissing the ^idea either, coz remakes like FF7 have totally reimagined the base game.
IF that's what they end up doing, then please Ubi, dont remake the other classical ACs...
It'll get some initial 3rd party support boost coz of it being more powerful than the Switch1 and hence any PS4/XBone+ cross-plat games still in development will include Switch 2 as well, plus any current-gen game that can be optimized lower than Series S will also give Switch 2 a try by its dev and lastly ports of some last-gen 3rd party games + remasters.
But what after this first 2-year phase is the question.
Will we see continued "cross-gen" releases? i.e d...
.... and that 3.1's rasterized ... before the superior DLSS-SR coming into play, mind you
Altair's AC1 deserves more of a reimagining than a straight remake ... The game's got pacing issue and is comparatively barren especially since the parkour ability surprise has worn of.
Wish they remade ACII before Black Flag ... or even re-imagined AC1
The medieval Blade game we might get before the official Blade game
Looks promising even from that tiny gameplay segment
Skyblivion is a 1:1 remake in Skyrim engine
whereas this one seems to be offering some enhancements in gameplay i.e QoL updates
So ... will totally depend on if the enhancements are worth it.
Who knows, both might offer different experiences whilst in-game.
I'll be supporting Skyblivion and Skywind more coz of the projects' legacies.
I mean ... should an online game be judged in GOTY, by its initial launch presence or after its 1-year impact?
nope, not at all
I just merely guessed what the theme of the SoP could be ...
