When did the cogs of fate begin to turn?

Give it time. It was revealed that devs have not had the XSX devkits for more than 6 months, while they had PS5 devkits for over a year. Lack of time for optimization and Civid are likely the culprits, and I expect the XSX version to have the slight advantages as time goes on.

Anyone making a deal about it though needs to check their priorities however. Even now, they are too close to matter.

They already do that when the price drops within 6 months of release. Anything that is pro consumer is devaluing their games after all.

See how stupid that sounds?

Thats basically what they did for gamepass. If you need live gold, just get gampass ultimate. Gold is included for an extra 5 dollars, so essentially you are saving in the end. If you figure 10 of the 15 is for Gold, then gamepass is basically added on for 5 bucks a month.

The standard option is basically there for people who only want one or the other.

Got mine off Amazon, and loving it. Hopefully both consoles will be available again sooner rather than later.

Be patient, don't let the scalpers win!

Its because those that disagree hate that they don't have an option even near as good.

Halo Infinite? That game that isn't out yet?

Bad example, looks like reaching if anything.

Considering that MS doesn't release hardware numbers, what would that more reliable source be?

I'll wait...

@Ju

DMCV ran more consistently ahead of PS5 in 3 out of 4 modes, and it is sited that the 4th mode is due to a glitch.

And we have a winner!

The article literally says the only difference is 1 second faster load times on the PS5. Screen tearing is occasional on both, both run at a smooth 60fps, and both average 1800p (did you even read it?). You ponys are making a big deal about 1 second like that somehow makes a big difference.

In reality, all that tells me is that the extra speed in the SSD is not as much as a game changer as some people think if it only gets you 1 second extra. I mean hell, that is about ...

Only one of those not playable on PS4.

@SavageFlamingo

Just gonna pretend that the PS5 isn't have storage issues that reconstructs the SSD when going out of sleep mode, and even can potentially brick the console?

Get out of here with that fanboy shit. Isolated problems happen with every console launch. It is a known risk of being an early adopter.

This will be my first Assassin's Creed game since Unity, and I am stoked for it. Can't wait to play this on my Series X tomorrow!

So thats why they didn't announce Chono Break this year...yep...

(let me dream)

The XSX is objectively better. More powerful, faster load times (confirmed by DF), BC across several generations, gamepass having the best value in gaming, and the best version of all multiplats.

If you wanna argue that based on the previous gen, PS has had better exclusives...I will give you that. But the XSX as a console is truly superior hardware overall, and you did not mention anything about the software.

As a Sony fan, I think people are in denial about the fact that MS exclusive ES6 and Starfield. MS is building a brand. If you don't want and XBox, they will have it available on gamepass for PC and XCloud as an alternative. They want to drive people to their service, even if it doesn't sell a console. Putting it on PS5 will not do that.

It is funny you mention Gamepass on PS5, because that is the only realistic scenario that I see any Beth games (outside of tho...

Niether Starcraft nor ES6 had announced platforms. Just that they existed. The games he is referring to are games like Deathloop.

Odds are, both Starcraft, ES6, and any other future Beth game will be MS exclusive. Spencer even said himself in an interview that PS5 ports are not needed to make the acquisition worth the money with their business model, and that through PC, gamepass, XCloud, and Series consoles gamers will have plenty of ways to play their games.

They said they would honor current contracts. That includes games like deathloop, ESO, and Fallout 76.

Games like Starfield and ES6, where no platforms were even announced, are not covered by any contracts. There is a heavy chance they will be MS exclusive, but no confirmation has been made.
