@Lex - Xbox 360's NG2 had so many enemies and dismemberment that the blood splatter and body parts affected visibility of the enemies still alive. The werewolf-like enemies are so difficult when they as a horde start to throw the limbs of their brothers at you.
Cross-generation Share Play, so you can allow a friend to play something like Astro from their PS4, using their DualShock 4... but we still can't play PS5 games natively with it.
Cold Storage is here, finally, but games still need to be downloaded to system storage first, and still no M.2 drive support.
This update feels like half-measures on things that should've been built into the system from the start.
We can finally agree on something - you don't :)
"your post was far more of example"
By highlighting how I have both systems? LOL
"Why do you have such a big problem with that?"
I don't - that's exactly the same reason I bought my PS5. Where I strongly disagree is the stupid "I went with the one with the games" remark.
"triggered"
Dude, you're in like three different arguments today and I'm t...
That's such a tired argument. The only next-gen exclusives out now from Sony are a PS3 remake and a free pack-in. My PS5's taken me through Demon's Souls, Astro Bot, Spider-Man MM, and Ghost of Tsushima to completion, and a bit in Hitman 3 so I've got well about 150 hours logged in the thing. My spouse and I've played Mortal Kombat 11 a lot (and mutually agree how stupid it is that we can't use the DS4 anymore when we could at the system's launch). I want to go thr...
Elite Series 2 is absolutely my favorite controller - always have loved offset sticks and always will, as a left-hander with my thumb facing up instead of the side since the N64 in '96. The continued evolution of the Xbox controller makes the Series X|S controller my second favorite by default. The adjustable sticks (different styles and resistance) are great, and the paddles on the back make every game feel different, even something as simple as jumping while aiming in Halo.
I don't fully agree (offset sticks of the Xbox and Nintendo controllers ftw), but... "While not a massive departure in form from the DualShock 4"... what kind of thinking did these people have? The DS4 is way closer to previous designs than the DualSense is to anything they've done before.
Combined with adaptive triggers and haptics, it's easily my third-favorite controller.
It's not hard for these authors (or us really) to do the math on summing them up
In a world where a Sony game is Day 1 on Game Pass but $70 for everyone else (MLB), or where PC games on Game Pass are totally different than Steam (Nier, Evil Within), or where a game can launch Day 1 on console GP but not PC (Outriders), I think that MS will do or spend anything to get what they want on there.
If Series S can get 1080p30 with RT, Series X (& PS5) shouldn't have a problem with hitting 60 on that config
I didn't attach the FFVII Remake PS+ freebie to my account because I had a feeling this exact thing was going to happen. I've got the disc and didn't want to waste the time or storage when the upgrade comes out if the PS+ install wouldn't play nice with having a disc in. Good to know!
When it comes to video games, especially ones you can't even buy in a physical store anymore, I don't think people legitimately care about the corporate morality behind something that is objectively beneficial to the consumer.
But it is so much nicer when the people driving that message obviously love gaming (Phil, Aaron), versus someone who doesn't understand why people ever want to play them after a certain time (Jim).
When Ninja Gaiden 2 was about to be removed from Game Pass, they warned us and I purchased it at a 20% discount (something all GP subscribers are entitled to).
Why was it removed? Well, timing is super coincidental that the greedy IP owners are about to put out a half-baked inferior collection.
So now I own the title, both digitally as well as the OG disc, because I showed my financial support to the franchise both then and now (and own a Series S) - some...
As crappy as the situation is - full-price 3D All Stars gave me 35 hours of fun in just Sunshine + Galaxy. Less than $0.50/hour.
TLOU2 and GoT I got the collector's editions; whatever they cost I know dollar/hour spent is way more than what the Mario package's true cost came out to be.
Nintendo has Disney-level influence and the fan base to back it up. If people are having fun, that matters most, and people who buy collector's editions that co...
It's quick and fun for a few minutes here and there. Crash at least acts and moves like Crash, but damn it's a predatory game.
Launch the app - special deal! $2.99 bundle
Beat a level - another special!

Minimum 1 minute recharge times for vials you need for the next run, but you can use crystals to speed it up, and then buy more crystals for real money...
His point is... they could bring *that* emulator from the cloud hardware and let us be able to run 360-exclusive games on our own PCs.
I'd understand third party games being excluded by licensing deals, but it would be awesome if MS could have 360 emulation as a download into the Windows App for at least their own titles.
Now that it's on Cloud, hopefully they'll extend this to Remote Play. Still on their RP website - "Currently excludes backward compatible titles from Xbox 360 or Original Xbox."
It was on Game Pass until a month or two before they announced the Master Collection - very likely not a coincidence.
I played on PC last night - first time since December, on my nvme SSD. Maybe I didn't notice before but now I always see the weapon load when pulling it out.
I played this a couple months ago on Series S - felt like a perfect 60fps. Some keys were also to the left and it had only one valve - you clearly didn't play this game, copperfizzle
