Good news, but if they've JUST joined the project this suggest that there is still a lot more work to do and the Q1 2021 release we were hoping for now seems very unlikely.

What I love about the demo is that it's the best indication I've seen of what next-gen games will look like in terms of detail, textures, reflections and lighting. Also, the sheer balls of the gameplay with the extravagant fights with enemies bursting with character. This is definitely on my radar.

TWO terabytes in comparison to 820 GB, I'm not going to lie that's tantalising. But the downside of going digital-only is that I will no longer be able to to buy a game from Amazon and return it isn't any good.

Historically, part of the big attraction of a new generation of consoles has always been being able to experience the new, something that is better that wasn't possible before. This is why games released this year are significant step up from the games released in 1996 during the PS1/N64/Saturn generation. This is why the unique N64 controller was able to introduce 3D gaming to the masses. Otherwise there would be no reason to invest in a new platform, publishers would just keep making ga...

Hold on a moment, the premium packages don't have EXTRA content they have the same content but in BETTER QUALITY?!!!

Flight Simulator is included with Xbox Game Pass. But rather than seeing it as an all-inclusive service, it should be regarded as a good value starting point where for certain first party titles you pay for extra elements.

Halo Infinite is intended to be running for many years so I suspect over its lifespan there will be extra downloadable content you can pay for. We just have to wait and see if these will be smaller items or larger expansions.

The DualSense has technical features that are innovative and could help gameplay immersion (how good it is in practice we have to wait and see). However on the day that Sony begin to advertise this feature IGN then write a piece criticising it to make it seem like a negative, which is the sort of thing you would expect from a Xbox fan-blog not a supposedly professional video game website.

The reality is that Sony have made a brand new controller and the people who buy a Pla...

Hopefully Starfield will be a surprise reveal and release in 2021.

It's amazing how much also goes into embellishing a game's story via audio cues, I wish I was musically trained to fully understand this! Thankfully, the article on Nintendo Everything has pictures which seems to show the inverted notes.

Ghosts of Tsushima taps into Japan's feudal history and does so with authenticity and respect so it particularly resonates with Japanese gamers. An amazing achievement, Sucker Punch Productions should be proud.

Hi @Kornholic. Pease don't get agitated because a person lives a different way from you, my personal choices don't invalidate yours.

Committed Xbox fans and hardcore gamers will buy a Series X at launch no-matter what. However Microsoft will find it a more challenging proposition to sell to other gamers because of two unique factors; no standout exclusive that compares to Halo Infinite and also no generational exclusives.

The Halo franchise has a long history and is a big deal for many, so Halo Infinite at the Xbox Series X launch if it was of a high standard would have been an amazing draw that would se...

I've slowly moved mostly to digital because I like being able to view my entire digital library in one place and start up and launch any of my games without having to find the physical media. But ti would be nice to still be able to get physical boxes to put on my shelves!

I’m just speculating here, but possibly the decision to make the game cross-gen made development more complicated for 343i. It may also have limited the potential performance of the Series X edition because it has been designed around XBO limitations. Hopefully the extra time can be used to make Halo Infinite a game that really Shines on Series X.

@Lore I’m a bit of a fan of the Order 1886 and have never thought of it as an RPG. Hearing your suggestion I think could work great and allow more room for the story and the characters to breathe. SONY!

It’s new on PS Now so will try to give this a play before the next-gen games launch.

I believe it mixes historical with fantasy genres and perhaps not enough people got what the game is about.

It’s premature to say this is a ‘leak’ as we don’t yet know if this is an official product.

Format exclusives are part of the industry and they aren’t going to go away. What surprises me most about all of this is that at the last game conference Sony’s business competitor also announced third-party timed exclusives like Yakuza Like a Dragon and that’s a whole game, whilst Spider-Man is just a single dlc character so that could be viewed as a bigger deal. So judging by the big reaction it shows that a lot of gamers must really love Spider-Man.

Whilst there has been...

Microsoft won’t comment directly on the DualSense as it will be judged to be unprofessional and unsportsmanlike, but the timing of his tweet likely means the Xbox-camp authorised it.
