This article is clickbait because nowhere in the headline did it make clear this is a mod.

@cloganart said “This crowd will only change its tune on Starfield after it launches on PS5 lol. ‘It's actually not that bad...’”

When No Man’s Sky launched on PS4 it received strong criticism for under delivering on the game promised in the initial trailers. When it was released two years later on Xbox One it received praise and better scores. This wasn’t because of an anti-PlayStation conspiracy or ‘PlayStation tax’, it was because over the two year period the develo...

@-Foxtrot I agree with everything you say about the generic stuff. But what I played of the beta the controls felt fine, reminded me of Halo - that's a good thing but it's not enough. I'm not the key audience for this type of game as I don't play multiplayer online regularly, but the characters and world do matter and I found them lacking. In the first cinematic reveal the one standout was the woman, and I remember the green guy just because he was green.

If you're trying to work out if you can afford it then it's not for you - honest.

The PS5 Pro is a deliberately premium console only for the enthusiasts who really want it. For everyone else the standard model is fine, it runs the same games.

I'd be willing to pay £700 - that's SEVEN HUNDRED British Pounds which (after UK sales tax of 20% is removed) is $734.

I appreciate you all answering and giving some personal insights everyone.

@monkey602 It sounds like you've found a healthy balance and it's great that you can get together with your mates and you have that social element.

@TiredGamer I completely understand about the open world games. I mean when GTA III came out (shows my age) I loved it so much! It was an incredible city that was so exciting and felt so alive! Now, I have a library full of open...

I’m not fussed about any of these games and to be honest I don’t think I even care. I spend more time reading about games on N4G or watching YouTubers talk about them. Yes, I’m getting older, yes my job takes up most of my time - but now I’m beginning to think I should take off my hat and hang up my spurs.

This is a dating sim for and about the homosexual & bisexual community.

It’s not for me, but at least it’s its own thing and not trying to retcon pre-existing characters so kudos for that. This game will resonate most with video game ‘journalists’ at Kotaku, Polygon, The Gamer etc as well as regular members of ResetEra.

@Obscure_Observer I’ve read your many posts championing Xbox and I’ve not had a problem with them at all as I’ve regarded you as a passionate cheerleader for the platform. But when you say “Now, under his management, Xbox is bigger than the freaking Windows!”

Such a ridiculous claim should not be made without facts, so it leads me to wonder if either you have a low IQ (if this is the case then genuinely, no disrespect intended) or a PlayStation fan with an Xbox persona havi...

So many people mocked Jim Ryan and believed he was not a capable CEO precisely because he gave less interviews and was less of a salesman for PlayStation, than the amiable good guy Phil was for Xbox who gave loads of interviews. Now of course Ryan wasn’t perfect; he was rumoured to have pushed for more live service games and initially planned to close the PS3 PSN Store, later reversed, and he didn’t properly promote PSVR2 launch. But he updated the PSN subscription service and kept it profita...

I don’t think gamers want it to fail.

Before the first gameplay trailer people were eager to learn what the game was about. Along with hundreds of others I watched a streamer watch it, and in real time I saw many people’s reaction (via their comments). There was a lot of expectation and this wasn’t a great single player FPS or multiplayer game, it was a generic shooter for 5v5 play that seemed bare bones. Underwhelmed was the common reaction.

No I don’t t...

IGN thinks this is ‘fantastic’. It means that the Microsoft funded Avowed has more DEI than Black Myth: Wukong.

I remember when the ABK deal went through I remember so many from the hardcore fanbase like Destin Legare, Colt Eastwood and Jez Cordon gleefully celebrating on Twitter and YouTube. Now, they’re nonchalantly tweeting about how the business has changed.

Of all the Xbox exclusives that will make their way to PlayStation, the one that will have the greatest significance will be Halo:MCC and it will sadly be the death knell for the Xbox console in the eyes of some its staunchest fans. This is because the Master Chief for over two decades has been uniquely associated with the Xbox, and once it and it's historically biggest and best loved games go to PlayStation and Switch 2. Halo will be multi-platform and experienced by many more people and...

Does Star Wars Outlaws have micro transactions? Some Ubisoft games do now, but I haven’t heard anything about this so I wonder if it’s because Disney forbid it or because after the game has launched they will be a nice surprise.

That’s funny, and this year that might actually be true!

@GaboonViper I 100% agree with the observation that Jez Corden is a muppet. He’s had some legit info in the past, but most of what he says is calculated guesses based on other info. Also, based on his extreme fanboy behaviour and his argumentative interactions I’ve observed that he’s also a *** ****!

I suspect next year the release window gap between Xbox and the later PS5 release will decrease even more, until they become day and date.
