If I decided to buy a Series S I've already made the conscious decision that an X is not for me...

But I'll bite your bait anyway, and it's simple: Convenience, Enhancements, Legacy. I don't want to move a PC around or kick my spouse off of it just because I want to play Halo in its best quality. I've got Xbox games dating back to 2003, most are compatible and will likely be enhanced with AI-generated HDR *at the least* and even 4K/better framerates in a...

iPhone SE, 11, 11 Pro, 11 Pro Max. iPad, iPad Air, iPad Pro 11 and 12.9, iPad mini.

Just some options of extremely successful products from one company that all happen to share the same OS, app store, ecosystem, services, and design language.

IGN has a good comparison up with this, PS4 Pro, One X and Series X.

This gen will be the gen of beasts

GT, Sackboy, and Astro Bot are 60 - Ratchet and Oddworld are not. That's what I meant. I can see that's worded confusingly and I can't edit it...

Oh it's of course capable of handling 4k60. GT, Sackboy, Astro Bot hit it or at least target it based on DF analysis.

But for nearly all the other first party titles, Sony seems to be prioritizing high-fidelity 30fps. If Spider-Man was going to be a 60fps title, we'd have that trailer by now

I could see even a $100 price difference, given that drive will get you (in marketing speak) an UltraHD Blu Ray & DVD Player and access to the PS4 games you have on disc. $400-$500 or (please no) $500-$600

Sony's YouTube seems to make it clear which games are 60 and which are sticking to 30 unfortunately.

GT, Sackboy, Astro Bot. Not even Ratchet is 60. Not even Oddworld is 60 and that's a cross-gen game Digital Foundry played on PC at 60fps last year.

@ken The Initiative is very likely on a new IP. Everwild is a new IP. Hellblade 2 is just a sequel, not a long-term franchise. Halo, Forza, Gears 5 Enhanced, whatever other BC titles that will be enhanced at or around launch. That's what we know about.

Sony had a spin-off of a very long-existing multimedia IP (SM:MM), a sort-of spin-off pack-in that's also the second in its franchise (Astro Bot), the second in its franchise (Horizon 2), a remake (Demon's Souls),...

Sony has demonstrated that they have the best developers, that's for certain. We finally have next-gen titles to look forward to...

But... is no one else even slightly disappointed with what we're getting at launch? What is there, first-party content-wise, besides the free Astro Bot, and the Spider-Man spin-off?

I watched the whole event and felt this way yesterday, but now that I've had time to think about it...

Spider-Man: Miles Morales will be their biggest PS5 exclusive for how long? And that's not even a full from-the-ground-up PS5 game. It's a stop-gap developed to give us something before that sequel, exploiting the PS5's faster asset loading because Spider-Man has been their metric from the very first demos of PS5's SSD.

That's kin...

This same developer from the same interview said that he based his information on presentations and the internet.

His comment at the end is vague and any fanboy cannot interpret it to mean their favorite platform. The PS4 was the more powerful system and the more powerful system performed better. He's given two numbers where the XSX is more powerful and then says "it" will "stay the same".

It being... What? That PS will stay the hi...

People have spoiled the game on here in comments like this :/

It sucks. I read the spoilers day one, it took 3 days before it would've been ruined for me on here

2059d ago 1 agree2 disagreeView comment

It's obvious they've at least been testing something like a Series S, to hold out on announcing makes me think they still don't even know.

The PS5 being slightly 'weaker' than XSX in power and Sony publicly being uncertain on pricing could've made MS feel confident in just a single SKU. But with Covid disrupting the global economy, maybe that could push them to want a cheaper SKU, putting those plans back on track?

If the rumors pr...

I'll either forget I redeemed it or won't remember if I redeemed all of the slips.

This makes Destiny 2 the first game to be announced as having a free upgrade from PS4 to 5. Here's to hoping this is a forward to what we can expect for third-party cross-generation titles on PlayStation.

4K60fps, cross-gen same-family multiplayer. Cross-platform play coming in the future. Regardless of opinion on Destiny 2 itself, Bungie's doing a good job in their policy.

Disagree.

After playing all of the Royal Edition, Prompto's Episode doesn't redeen him from the constant annoyance he was about the damn Chocobos early on. If I didn't play the content available though Royal, all of the other party characters would've felt so expendable.

@Lore we are a month away from seeing both officially unveil their first party lineup, waiting is the only objective thing we can do

GamingBolt is a disgrace and if this site had integrity GB would be banned as a source.

@tonton Then you are putting a lot of faith into a 2 second loading screen instead of a 4-5 second one

One game per gen:
NES - Kid Icarus
SNES - Super Mario RPG
N64 - Donkey Kong 64
GC - Star Fox Adventures
Wii - Skyward Sword
Wii U - ... Just port the rest over at this point. What Wii U exclusives are left besides Xenoblade Chronicles X and Pikmin 3?

The dream would be full HD collections. Pikmin Trilogy, the Wii U Zelda ports, the rumored 3D Mario remakes.

It's definitely set up as a once-in-a-generation experience; they want you to feel every moment no matter how gruesome.

The whines of the hurt dogs in the gameplay videos make me want to go through as stealthily as I can.
