To steal some words from isarai "that's not how that works" especially when you know that the best Switch emulator (Yuzu if you feel differently, you're just wrong) still can't run BoTW at 60FPS unlocked on far more powerful GPUs including GPUs that vastly outstrip PS5/XSX. The rigs I've seen trying to push 60 are rocking 13th gen CPUs and an RTX 4090.
Seeing as how the 4090 just came out half a year ago and has a $1,600 RRP.... Abear21 is sounding pretty co...
It's sad how many deluded PC fans liked this conmment... clearly they don't know Yuzu and Ryujinx run pretty badly and cannot push BoTW at 60FPS on hardware MORE ADVANCED than PS5/XSX.
Also how many PC guys are really doing important stuff on their computers. If they're smart not many.
@FortWaba, isarai and ufo8mycat
You're all wrong and FortWaba is most definitely a child in a cognitive sense here.
More specifically at isarai who idiotically wrote: "PC has more uses than a switch, also you can emulate on like $700, probably like $550 if you buy used and price hunt. Lastly, many people who pirate still actually buy the game, but when you have the option to run it better than the switch can, why not?"
None of that is relevant in the f...
Must have visited recently and drank the contaminated saltwater water in LA.
How did ABK burn bridges with PS? Failed acquisition deals with a rival don't necessarily mean companies are in a new type of competition. I don't think this will hurt the relationship ABK has with PS.
Maybe MS should figure out how to release some games first!?
If MS were a good gaming company I wouldn't care about this acquisition.
Unfortunately as MS stands today they're just terrible, I'm glad this was blocked hopefully their appeal also fail, this is a clear attempt to steal loads of IP to sit on and do nothing with just so PS might lose some market share.
@loftlanser
"They say contradictory things like, 'MS buying ABK would be close to a monopoly, which would be awful for gamers as there'd be less choice' but then, in another article, will say, 'MS needs to leave the console space'...which would of course leave Sony on it's own since Nintendo aren't really competing for the same space. That would be way closer to a monopoly."
There are two distinct points being made here but you...
If that were true most gamers would be on PC primarily...
But they aren't!
Sure dude you keep believing DF said that and even if they did. I've seen those videos before I don't think they said Crysis on Switch is better than on PS4. You might be confusing that for IQ in Alien: Isolation which is better on Switch over PS4. Even so models, grass, framerate all better on PS4 over Switch along with resolution.
Oh that... that was Microsoft's fault!
If only they didn't make promises that even the most technologically illiterate politicians could easily flag as a total lie.
As a company MS has acquired over 180 companies and most of them failed with over 11 game developers closed in the past 17 years vs PS' 10 over 29 years!
ABK under MS' stewardship is not going to be good for gaming. Would be amazing for Bobby Kotick though.
All games that look like trash on Switch... great case you're building though! /s
Data centers are not at all cheap in many ways they're far more expensive and wasteful than making the physical discs and distrubuting them to retail stores. So much for "road to carbon neutral" not that CO2 emissions actually impact the climate anyway. It's all ridiculous.
@isarai
Plenty of non-AAA games are basically indie at this point most of which YOU CANNOT PURCHASE ON DISC.
So I'm lost with your point a bit on that front too.
I do agree mostly and I can't think of the last time a PS game didn't work from the disc day 1. Genuinely not even GT Sport. I did purchase GT7 digitally since its a technically a GaaS game so I can't say it worked day 1 from the disc. If PD actually offlines GT Sport on disc I would rebuy t...
@badz149
Who the •••• said buying the disc means they OWN THE IP!?
Serious question.
@rlow1
Nintendo shouldn't be getting good will because their HW is poor either... but they do!
If Nintendo had the best HW ever conceived a console about 50% more powerful on paper than Xbox Series X called simply "Nintendo 8" for $500 and only released Mario Kart 9 for $70 and The Legend of Zelda: Tennis Superstars Origami Saga Tri-Force Edition (comes with a 14 page artbook, a gold colored plastic medallion and a tiny plastic tennis racket) for $120 over the ...
Another moron of a politician who doesn't understand MS does all this too and then sinks its purchased companies laying off literally tens of thousands of staff members in a single day.

"True comparing ps plus premium 19$ with gamepass 7$ is won by miles by gamepass, the only poeple to think ps plus premuim have a great value is new players in the platfrom, if i didnt already finish PS exclsuives i would've bought 2 month of sub and finish the games i want in long play setions"

PS+ Premium (PS+P) is only $17.99 USD/mo (regular price) Game Pass for Consoles and Game Pass for PC is ...
To simplify everything I just wrote even more so that everyone can understand it...
tl;dr: PS+ Premium is 119.99/yr offers 834 games while Game Pass for Consoles and for PC costs the same amount, but gives subscribers 437 games on console, 426 of that catalog are available on PC.
If you stream on Game Pass only 337 of the original 437 gane are available. To stream and play across Xbox and PC you'll pay $14.99/mo which is $60 more per year than 1 whole year of P...
War as a business is already a thing it was a thing decades before the first Metal Gear game on MSX.
