The gliding and grappling in R&C is much less like that which is in Hcorizon Forbidden West than in Just Cause. Mind you that franchise also predates The Legend of Zelda: Breath of The Wild, but no Nintendo fanboy journalist will ever admit that to themselves.

1. Who really needs 1440p support? It is only an inconvenience not a real problem but sure I guess XS gets a tiny w there.
2. PS5 has external HDD/SSD support for archive purposes and you can run PS4 games from this media too.
3. PS has a Reward card and has had one for a few years now as well as Sony Rewards Program.
4. RetroArch app support is a real reach but again I suppose that's a tiny w for XS systems???
5. Excellent BC... exi...

CBOMB isn't even the same kind of issue especially on PS5. On PS4 CBOMB is apparently a genuine nightmare.
Xbox 360, One and Series systems need to be activated online with an Xbox Live account just to work, full stop. This isn't the case with PlayStation 4 or PS5.

PS4's CBOMB issue definitely needs to be addressed because it affects the utilization of physical media. CBOMB technically effects PS5 because all digital media will be locked until you sign ...

PS4 was pretty draconian.

PS5 let up significantly being even less draconian than PS4. CBOMB doesn't have the same effect on PS4 or PS5 physical media based on a video made by Spawn Wave who I'd say was more Nintendo centric for a while.

Looks like his own CBOMB testing proved PS5 doesn't limit users access to purchased physical media which makes sense. Though unlike PS4, PS5 will allow users access to PS4 and PS5 physical disc content which i...

True, but PS5 does give you that outlet and CBOMB on PS5 doesn't effect disc-based content on PS5 nor does it effect PS4 disc-based content.

Intrepid PS5 owners have taken their own PS5's apart removed the battery and replaced it without reconnecting it to the internet. They checked what that system will allow them to do.

The proof is there; PS5 gives users ownership of software media users purchased physically for PS4 and PS5. That's great ne...

First you need to activate your Xbox to even use it.
Without an internet connection the box it COMPLETELY AND ENTIRELY 100% TOTALLY USELESS EVEN WHEN RUNNING XBOX SERIES NATIVE GAMES FROM A DISC WHICH DO NOT REQUIRE ANY PATCHES.

PS5 meanwhile will work fine out of the box without an internet connection. Even post CBOMB PS4 games from discs will work unlike on PS4 which is a makes PS5 a better PS4 than PS4 was in more ways than one though obviously digital content i...

@DarthMarvin
That raising of game prices is paying developers ways and from what I'm seeing PlayStation's 1st party developers mist definitely do deserve it. Sure that door is open for every publisher to abuse that $10 price hike and they unfortunately will, then it is up to you as the consumer to actually bite down and NOT BUY THEIR •••• GAMES!

Wait for the walk throughs and video reviews if you're unsure or already know the developer or publisher has ...

You know the weird thing is that he then goes on to claim that he does have a daughter who was born 3 months early and developed a "leg infection" somehow and that he spent 98 days in NICU with his newborn daughter and that his experience made him overprotective of all women... uh s-somehow and that this is why he can't be disrespectful towards them. Because his newborn daughter developed a leg infection after she was born prematurely.

That's a very peculi...

I'd take Inverno's advice here. No NORMAL self-respecting man would say something like that to a woman. So maybe... Just maybe she might have done something to warrant having called such terrible name-calling and language slung her way?
Just a thought.

Why not buy a used Switch Lite?

What are you talking about? Plenty of IP were exclusive to other platforms before PS even came along. How do you think PS even wound up getting games like Final Fantasy?

PlayStation broke that rule you just made up right now 26 years ago.

Sunset Overdrive is more like an amalgamation of everything great about Ratchet and Clank re-skinned and cartoon-ified to an insane degree with a healthy dose of snark (maybe too much for some people). It was the only game that interested me on Xbox One after learning that FM5 was all smoke and mirrors.

That might be a bridge too far (meaning I might even get VR sickness out of that and I'm quite at home playing WipEout: Omega and AC7 in VR).

There are mobile games that when played on PC don't work right without installing them on your PC's SSD!

[Forgot to mention that I 100% agree with your comment.]

Game development is more than how many CPU/GPU cycles you have available per second. It's about what other things the hardware as a whole can allow you to bring to the table. Sounds like PS5 allows Insomniac to really open up the floodgate!

Additionally at near maximum brightness burn-in is a major issue on OLED panels. So compounding the fact that OLED typically presents with duller overall brightness it also gives us a greater chance of permanent screen damage. If people really do use Switch outside more often than they do inside then that trade is NOT WORTH IT. The truth with cellphones is is that most people use them indoors so lower screen brightness levels and deeper often perfect black levels are pref...

Not only that but when or if PlayStation patches out CBOMB it sounds like might also patch out Trophy support for PS3/PS4 which will upset people for other reasons even though on PS3 Trophies were and afterthought and no one should care because they can still earn new PS4 trophies on any PS5.

It's so crazy that the native PSP store closed back in March 2016! Yet people didn't say much of anything when the Wii, Wii U, DS and 3DS stores closed permanently including Nintendo stopping all re-downloads. All the PlayStation focused op-eds are treating this like the end of the world but the fact is PlayStation is still allowing users to keep their purchases and if they need to free up space they can still re-download purchases for the foreseeable future.

So far...

It's almost like I wrote this. On this we complete agree I can tell you that much. Ditto for your reply to PrimeGam3r below.

Not that I don't think this move sucks it's just not important to the people writing these pieces and ultimately it's not that important to me even as a PSP/PS3/PSV owner. I do think the people most heavily impacted are developers.

Wii, Wii U, DS and 3DS shops all closed up their online storefronts in the time frame ...

The only Pokémon game I played and liked was Yellow (I know so controversial) and after that I recognized every one since was clone of that one. What I didn't know at the time was that Yellow was a clone of Red and Green with Pikachu as a starter Pokémon. lol but hey at the time I was in the age demo and watching the anime some of the time (never watched the movies only played the trading card game briefly never could get into that stuff). I did get the odd Pokémon Christma...
