They're approaching or have exceeded already 3x the sales of the Wii U after less than 2.5 years. Or are those just the diehards that weren't diehard enough to get a Wii U?

Switch features the best-selling Zelda of all time and the best-selling 3D Mario of all time, but ok

Niche relative to what standard? The casuals gaming on their $999 iPhone X?

Things have gotten more expensive since 2013, where PS4 carried the 2005 360's $399 price forward and the One carried forward the 2006 base PS3's price. Consumers are clearly accepting that $300 is still an acceptable MSRP for a product launched nearly 6 years ago.

Don't make this about journalism, this article (clearly labeled as an opinion) is just a guy with a blog looking to write something.

... even though that something is nonsense. His closing paragraph highlights why his opinion piece is pointless sharing:

"Of course all of this will be moot once Sony and Microsoft actually show us what their next consoles aim to bring to the table"

No crap people aren't hyped yet. Look a...

What are you rambling about redey3?

I was suggesting that developers have the freedom of speech on their own products and creations. It seems that when that freedom of speech is used to promote ANY belief that "the left" rationalizes with, all these people that "care" about games being non-political and freedom demand that these developers stop because it's just so "Liberal".

You are making this about... Race and corporat...

Am liberal, can confirm Eonjay.

Developers should be free to use their worlds and their games/universes for their own ideas.

The Outer Worlds doesn't want to have political undertones - those are the developers defining their product.

Compare that to EA, which has Mass Effect/Dragon Age (which features the radical left idea of "gays exist too") that are their own universe and creation. That's how they want to define th...

Nothing is preventing you from purchasing those games on Game Pass and they are persistently discounted (not to mention several high-quality titles past and present are on it). xCloud's arrival also finally brings Microsoft in line with Sony and brings personal console streaming.

You don't even need to read beyond the headline to know that Microsoft is currently the only company between the big three that actually wants you playing as much of your past collection as...

It's 5% better than State of Decay 2 on Metacritic so back off trying to question the perfection of my Sony exclusive! /s

Fantastic games as well, but Knight had some specific criticisms. The Batmobile being so heavily used for so many similar arena battles. The PC version was one of the worst ports of the generation.

This is my game of the generation. Spider-Man is my favorite superhero and everything about this game just hits the mark to me. The opening sequence was incredible just throwing you into the city, the pacing, the freedom, all those suits, the extra web abilities.

And now I'm finally getting to the DLC and there's even more to it all.

I'd very much like to see an AC-like Prince of Persia. Decrease the scope, make it more focused/linear, and yes - offline.

PS Remote Play has moments of greatness on my iPad (local), but there's frequent stutter and disconnect icon flashes that make playing games like Sonic impossible.

But - Slower games are tolerable and the input latency itself doesn't feel that noticeable to me. It's the network stability that's my concern (and I've got plenty of speed).

The subscription service comes with discounts on those games. It's a great way to try and then buy if you so desire at a cheaper rate. If you cared to read or listen to his interviews, you'd maybe think differently... His thoughts on product ownership and the importance of local hardware, plus the ability to play those games anywhere when possible as well, are very relatable.

Exactly. Outside of the input method (controller), how does custom hardware bring innovation to the actual players?

Sony's Cell processor meant that third-party games were constantly getting stiffed on the PS3 versions. Sure, 1st party and exclusive games took better advantage of it, but at the end of the day that quality was enabled by the skill of the developers, not because of the Cell architecture itself.

Cross Play gives Sony free marketing. That 2-1 ratio of PS players talking to Xbox friends about all the great games only they get.

2501d ago 1 agree7 disagreeView comment

Bringing as many players of the same game together as possible is fantastic and mutually beneficial. PS or Xbox online for console should be as relevant as who's on iPhone or Android on mobile (aka - it doesn't matter)

By not reading the article, your assumption is completely wrong. No shade. Nothing about protecting children. Nothing about not caring about children either (where the heck did that come from even?).

I'd tell you what it was, but if I read the article, so can you. And maybe you'll question the wisdom of coming to an externally-sourced aggregate website but not wanting to actually inform yourself on what those external sources have to say.
