I’m glad EA never paid the ransom. Whether you’re a single person or multibillion dollar company, or a government standing against terrorists you stand up to those who seek to bully and extort. I know the ResetEra-types are celebrating that a company they don’t love as much as Xbox/Sony/Nintendo has experienced this.

@Takwin Make sure to start playing it! Surely they can't rescind your ownership once you've already got a save game file?

This is a harbinger of the future.

I understand the need to call out broken games but this piece is premature. This is a pre-release technical preview specifically for testing and discovering issues and there has naturally been a huge demand in gamers wanting to try it out which has overwhelmed servers. It's this process which can help lead to a smooth launch.

@Neonridr He said there are some Gen 4 drives that are below spec. So Gen 4 is no guarantee of PS5 internal SSD equivalent speed! You have to make sure you go for a fast SSD.

The quote "We tried some below-spec Gen4 M.2 drives as well and saw up to 15% slower loading in the most SSD-stressing areas of the game."

@CaptainHenry916 Thanks for the tip. The WD is the fastest I've now seen and the cheapest in the UK for 1TB £165. I just need some assurance it will fit and won't overheat - and get accepted onto the beta!

Whatever this turns out to be I hope it's worth it!

I want to see a big bollocked bastard (metaphorically speaking) buy the 4TB $1050 SSD and put it in their PS5. Yes, I will think it's a waste of money but I will contradictorily be impressed at the same time!

As SquareEnix want to create a medieval-like setting it's going for traditional British English. ;) The illusion of a fantasy world can be broken when you hear an LA surfer accent say: "Hey bro, that Ifrit summons was totally RAD man!"

Somebody hasn’t been paying attention to what Microsoft say or do. The division’s goal is to develop a market leading cloud gaming subscription service that requires no upfront purchase and is ubiquitous like Netflix, ie available on almost every third party computing device.

Hateful words like the n word and f word understandably upset people and shouldn’t be allowed in multiplayer. But I’m an adult man and I’ve got no problem with swearing at someone or being sworn at and there’s nothing wrong with allowing online games to replicate real life spaces. More vulnerable players should be allowed to select a ‘safe’ lobby where they can safely play with other crybaby wimps. As for single player games they have an age rating on them. My first instinct is to say don’t b...

Great marketing to not have an NDA on the Halo Infinite beta as it means a ton of coverage.

It looks like Netflix wants to be 'the Netflix of games'!

At this rate Tencent will be buying Microsoft next!

@Tapani Good to see some people still have a sense of humour!

@UltraNova. Sony not being at E3 and Sony not having a press event are two different issues.

This year's online E3 was an online event and I don't think Sony lost currency from staying away from what has been called the 'Worst E3 ever.'

I remember first becoming aware of Michael Pachter from the Geoff Keighley show Bonus Round on Gametrailers. I’ve always found him to be interesting and entertaining, and he explained some of the business of how gaming companies operate. He was new to the gaming industry so there were big gaps in his knowledge and he had a natural bias to US companies. One thing that hasn’t changed over the years is he, like other regular guest Stephen Totilo, he always had a natural bias. He regularly would ...

If this can run the Epic Games Store, GoG, PS Now and Game Pass that makes it pretty versatile.

I agree. A bestselling list is separate from a best quality list.

Wow, the DS man it sold 154 million! The Switch will hit 100 million this year and I think could have legs enough to beat the PS4 sales by the end of next year.

I wonder what The Coalition will choose to make next.
