CRank: 5Score: 59570

I am a little baffled at the news that Epic Games is upset with Apple and Google for their 30% cut of purchases on their store, while they don’t seem to mind it on Playstation and Xbox. Maybe I am wrong, but last I checked Sony and Microsoft charge that same 30% for purchases made on their stores and so do physical stores like Best Buy or Gamestop. Why is it okay on the consoles and not the phones?

What are you insinuating? What is the BLM movement doing that is in anyway similar to what was shown in this video?

Why is it relevant to compare the sales of Spiderman and Sea Of Thieves? The last of us sold more than 17 million copies as of April 2018, so it could have sold more by now. Thats more than 15, why not compare that? Uncharted 4 sold over 15 million copies as of May 2019. Why not compare it with that? Sea Of Thieves is also on PC and was on game pass which was $1 for a few months when it first launched. The barrier to entry for both of the games was very diff...

Thats interesting. I have no idea what it is like where you live, but the exchange rate from TL to USD is 6.86 TL to 1 USD dollar. So it costs about $67.8 USD to buy that game where you live. Thats pretty close to the $60 people pay here in the USA, but if the average income over there is 2,000 TL then thats just insane. That would be like me making $291.50 a month here in California where the average rent for a 1 bedroom apartment in Irvine is $2,000 a month. How is r...

PSVR is already compatible day one with PS5. It was announced a while ago. Here is a quote from the article I have linked:
“Speaking to Wired, Mark Cerny (lead system architect at Sony working on the upcoming console) confirmed that all existing versions of the PlayStation VR will be compatible with the next-gen console.“

At first I wasn’t a fan of playing as Abby, but because of her choices and interactions with her fellow companions she grew on me. I still preferred Ellie, but It was amazing to fight Ellie as if she were a boss battle. I made Abby die the first chance hoping to have Ellie win, but the game makes you battle it out and it made the whole fight so cool because I wanted Ellie to win, but had to try and kill her. I thought the game was great. Can’t decide if ...

You keep typing 5AD. What does that mean? It seems like you are referring to the Playstation 5 Digital Edition, but short hand for that would be PS5DE or I guess you could do 5DE. But what does 5AD mean to you?

@grieve4steve
It has already been announced by Playstation that the digital version will be the same as the regular PS5, just without a disc. So when you speculate that it will have a larger SSD I think you might be mistaken. We will have to wait and see though. Ill edit this and add a link to the confirmation from Sony.

Gamingbolt is now just taking content from outside sources. This ex EA developer made a 3 part youtube reaction/breakdown video to the ps5 talk that Cerny gave a few months ago. He was just reacting to the video in real time and Gamingbolt seems to have just taken his words from that video and pieced them together to write an article about it. This is the laziest article from Gamingbolt that I have seen. This ex dev. doesn’t have a dev. kit. He was just reacting to the ...

I have never heard of a dev. kit having higher specs than a standard console. The manufacturer would want the specs to be the exact same so that developers can optimize the game for the hardware right? That sounds logical to me. I have never heard any developer state that the dev kits are more powerful. However, I am not a developer or working in the industry so I don't talk to the people in the know. All I can go off of is publicly stated information. Seeing a...

@DigitallyAfflicted

You're ridiculous haha. Sony showed off all of their first party games running on PS4 and then PS4 Pro when they showed gameplay. If the game was running "in engine" Sony would state that on the trailer/video and that was probably running on a PC. If the game was running on PS4 or PS4 Pro they would state as much. It seems nonsensical to bring up Playstation when you are complaining about how this developer ran this game during an Xbox pres...

This information about no waypoints is based off of a 2020 magazine article that was based on interview from 2018 done by the Official Playstation Magazine (OPM). OPM has come out to state that the information in the 2020 article that was based on the 2018 interview is inaccurate.

I think it’s a little bit of a workout. It depends on your physical ability. I workout 3-5 days a week for 45 minutes to an hour each time. Compared to that its not too bad, but playing on expert did make me work up a bit of a sweat with continuous play. You for sure get sore after prolonged play just because you’re body probably isn’t used to flailing your limbs around. You can also make it more of a workout as well if you dance along with the song as you play. 100% re...

Sony exclusives have actually been selling a lot more than 7-13 million. The Last Of Us has sold over 20 million units, Uncharted 4 has sold over 16 million units, And God Of War and Spiderman have sold over 13 million units. Some playstation games sell less than 7 million as well (especially in the first 2-3 years of a new consoles life cycle). However, overall Playstation software sales are very strong. Playstation exclusive software accounts for ~15-20% of PS...

You can play outside of your house. I tried it at starbucks 400 miles away from my home and it worked for me.

Both Sony and Naughty Dog have confirmed that there is no multiplayer. I am very disappointed, but if allocating recourses to provide a larger/better campaign, then I am fine with that.

2:15 is the time that the outbreak was occurring when Joel’s daughter, Sarah, looked at the messages on Joel’s phone in the prologue of the game. That could be what the time is pertaining to. I could be wrong.
