Whats the most vicious business move to drown Sony? Offer an identical spec machine for less to capture those on a tight budget, then offer the most powerful console at a higher price that capture those into the high end.

I don't think they will do that, but they could offer a free year of game pass and that might help Sony users to switch. MS seems content where they are not beating Sony so I don't know if they would get into a price war.

Thanks to you I finally see a good comment. I also agree with pachter, MS has the disposable/investment resources to make an equal spec unit and sustain higher losses than Sony.

No news article with details? Just a tweet, I loomed through a bunch of comments, no info. I googled it and first several reputable sites have the same lack of info.
What did he die from?
Was he survived by who?

Without knowing context of the environment, it may be ok he responded with a back-alley answer, that may even be that devs MO, he seemed comfortable answering that way. Certainly was funny.

I don’t think of sexuality when I see a female character, I think what’s going on in that society that she is in that role. Can she perform as well as a male, what skills does she have that put her in that place, either she exceeds others or she doesn’t and was placed there due to lack ...

Yep, several years ago.

I can about quote last couple years all models native rate and about all mid range up are 120hz. Only the low end are now 60hz.

I’m sorry buddy that is years old, most all mid range from Sony, Sammy, LG, Vizio and tcl are native 120 hz.

The low end models are 60 hz, and in the last 2 years these manufacturers know we understand this on mid to high range and shop for it.

Only on the low end models the the 60hz get fake terms.

This past year Sammy and vizio had qleds for under 1k, the nu/ru8000 I think and the p series viz. They are mid range tv's but good enough, with 120hz. I almost got the P Quantum viz 65 inch on sale for 1100, it had been over 2k.

55 inch oleds have been hard locked above 1k so I don't see much movement on a 65 oled that's been stable at over 2k. They are all 120hz. There is supposed to be a 49 inch oled for 1k coming this year.

The games are what $10 each on eBay? Next year prob $5 each? Play them with improved frame rate, resolution and loading times next year.

Save the $350 plus tax and add $100 to it next year and buy a ps5?

$350 is almost there for a full ps5 next year, now would be a bad time to sink 350 when it could be used for a ps5 soon.

Nostalgia is a strong concept and if done right lucrative.

When a game gathers a memory from my youth that I cherish then it becomes more than buying a new game and falls into, I'll pay anything for that experience because I have a connection to it.

Steam and MS are separate game clients and usually don't work together, so this is welcome

I've waited out the ps4 just for this, now hopefully my plan works when I get a ps5 and buy all of the ps4 exclusives cheap and they play better. If the games turn out to be basically the same then I'll get a discounted pro.

I just have such a backlog on steam and even ps360 games I still mess with that I only got an xbox and didn't need a ps4 this gen. I finally got out of the rat race of buying new for the first time since the 3DO, now I stay a gen back and ...

Maybe Sony will budget some money to devote towards paying devs to upgrade, that way ps4 owners will have an extra push to buy a ps5 knowing their library will have a boost

I really hope so too! I haven't played dc yet but it sounds like the way I love motorstorm and still play it today.

I’ve seen and agree with your thoughts, that’s why I recommend an excuse that can’t be verified and has the moral authority.

Something like caring for a chronic sick aunt works well cause it’s not a spouse or child that you will have to verify later. The aunt can go away over night to another city and family member if needed.

I picked it up for my kids on eBay a few months into the early Switch rumors, it was great timing for them and where they were at gaming wise.

Also a bargain for me, games and hardware super cheap. I also experienced a bit of a renewal back to the those type of games I used to loathe as a young adult, but now enjoy as I get older and nostalgic.

Btw just got a new 86 inch tv and wiiU games in that size are sooo fun, all of us jumping around in mp.

If you read the article it makes it clear HR was compromised. So you have to lie to weasel your way out of after work invitations, and do that in a way that does not offend the management jerk.

If you say I can't go I have to workout, or spend time with the kids, or tell the truth he will manipulate through those things and make it your fault. You also can't use a verifiable lie that could get you caught, like saying you are coaching a baseball team.

Management should not be partying with staff, such an easy solution. If you are the employee you say I’ve got a sick aunt I care for every day and can’t go out. Give little details of your personal life.

As a manager you need your own friends, not staff after hours.

Agreed, at the time it was cutting edge gfx and that made the heavy story based interactive parts better.

I really enjoyed it and beat it twice. I seem to have a bad memory so I’m excited to play again at 4k60.

60fps is not “literally the same game.” 4K improved gfx is not the same.

It’s a game on a tv that we use vision to experience so improved gfx are always welcome. So there is a reason to play on pc, cause it looks better.

We could just pass legislation to give all of Sony/MS trade secrets along with the rest of tech that does business in the US to the corupt thiefs who have been stealing for decades, that way we don't have to be in this trade dispute.

Then he won't have "Anything to ruin," since it's all been given/stolen away. Maybe you prefer China could then be the sole console producer instead. I'd rather intellectual property that was earned through R&D ...
