They've been more expensive than Xbox before while being a year late to the party ($299/$399 360 in 2015 - $499/$599 PS3 in 2016). They aren't afraid of doing that. but such a move cost them the 5-6x sales advantage PS2 had over OG Xbox, down to a 1.1-1.2x sales lead by the time the PS3 was laid to rest?

They're going to launch with a system now that loses the raw-numbers game compared to Series X, and includes *less* storage than what consumers have been buying...

The Series X is seemingly just as capable if not more [based on their details regarding the Gears 5 demo running on Series X itself at 4k above 60fps with settings exceeding PC Ultra]

Does it even matter for a game with no release date? In a world where Square posts FFVII Remake videos to the official PlayStation YouTube channel using footage from the still-not-announced PC version, this is a non-issue.

Was Godfall's trailer running on a PS5?

So what you're saying is, he played the game...

If Sony can have special server hardware playing legacy PS titles, why can't we have that as the consumer buying PlayStation hardware?

Power of the Cloud, huh? [We know they're partnering with Microsoft funny enough]

As a business - one simple reason: a competitor is doing it and they're doing it way better. It's a consumer-friendly feature. Sony can and should be better, and as fans we shouldn't be ok with them falling behind.

Sony has the resources at their disposal to develop a way to preserve, respect, and enhance your PlayStation legacy.

There is no reason to be against this. It's 2020, a competitor is being currently-unchallenged in this area. A PC emulator and illegal download of an iso shouldn't be the easiest option to play an old PlayStation game. Especially when you still own the disc.

Someone yesterday was dumb enough to suggest that you don't need a GPU because an SSD is so quick at pumping out 4K assets.

That's not a fanboy. Not everyone has to be a fanboy. Can't we just call stupid stupid?

Stop being so fearful of the fanboy of the other platform and stoking flames that don't need to be, man.

In the context of the power of the Switch, no developer has done what Saber has pulled off - they know what they're talking about, and no one is being unrealistic that the "power" is any sort of Secret Sauce.

Sushi should be responsible? That's quite a burden to place on a random commenter... especially when he's responding to someone only commenting to be edgy.

Fact is that Microsoft is highlighting the Series X BC features here. Not only just preservation of Xbox history, but enhancing it in ways that not even PC gaming can do or is even attempting to do; you can forget both Sony and especially Nintendo at this point when it comes to consumer-friendly BC support.

What? Thousands of games... because of the 600 or whatever BC games, on top of virtually the entire library of the thousands of games made for Xbox One.

The first Remastered has high framerate options. Hopeful that instead of a new release, maybe we can get something like that patched in for launch.

2207d ago 8 agree2 disagreeView comment

Phil's gone out of his way to state his preference of framerate over resolution.

When the talking head of an entire platform says that and developers still choose 30... It's interesting

2207d ago 2 agree3 disagreeView comment

Oh smoke and mirrors, whatever do we care. I have over 30 OG Xbox discs and over 50 360 discs. I can play almost all of the 360 ones and half of my OG. And I'll be able to play these in 4K with AI-generated HDR!

How petty to "LOVE" ragging on a trillion-dollar corporation that, unlike Sony, is attempting to not just preserve but enhance decades worth of games. How the heck is that BAD? This is irrelevant to new games and the entire topic of this post, you'...

Not even an honorable mention for Frozen Wilds, shame. Damn that expansion felt and even looked better (artistically - those hot springs!) than the base game.

Title: Focusing on Resolution misses the point...
The subtitle immediately following that's clearly not being read: ... Because the point is that it's a full-priced remake given side-project attention

He didn't read the article *at all*

Sony makes the best games, but consistent?
They suggested people should work a second job to afford a PS3.
Remember that same PS3 launched with full backwards compatibility, too? Then each hardware revision took more away.
Remember PSN being free to play multiplayer? Remember PSN also going offline for over a month because of hackers, but cross-play is bad because PSN is the best place to play?
Remember how awful Microsoft was for timed-exclusive DLC when t...

Wireless Charging attachment that includes keys that mirror the front of the controller... Almost like how a certain controller from a certain company has wireless charging and four paddles that mirror the face buttons...

I completely approve of a device that can Elite-up a normal controller. Now if only Sony can get that 40+ hour battery life that the Elite Series 2 has.

2207d ago 1 agree9 disagreeView comment

Do you think you can just hold your controller and it's going to charge wirelessly in your hand?

This is just like your phone's Qi wireless charging, it has to physically touch a charging surface.

At this point let's just hope the controller can hit double-digit battery life...
