Given the price point, this is likely the rumoured PS5 with a disc-drive attachment. Personally, I'm divided about that. I find the current design of the PS5 to be horrendous, so a new version is more than welcome. But if that disc drive is a completely separated unit - like the Xbox 360 HD-DVD drive - that would suck.
Fair enough, I agree that the production values of inFamous were higher. But I found it to be a snore-fest.
No need, because they instead could do these two other things that they have shown no interest in doing? Sure.
There is a lot of the PS3 era that I would love to see ported/remastered. But, unfortunately, they are probably not commercially viable and I have no idea who owns the rights currently. Stuff like Sire: Blood Curse, White Knight Chronicles, Tokyo Jungle, Folklore, etc.
Infamous on the other hand was never a series that I found good or interesting. Especially when compared with other contemporaries like Prototype. But, given how bare the subgenre is right now, I would dig a...
First, I hope not. This community on average has issues with low comment quality, lack of reading comprehension and the inability of critical thinking. To the point of picking one specific part of a comment, without comprehending the rest of the message and without thinking about the context of where it's applied aka the original article being an extremely common occurrence. So if that kind of behaviour is done on average by people in their 30s and 40s. That would just be just too sad. ...
Looks fairly well-optimized. And a DF comparison with the PS5 version will be really interesting. Though, based on the table provided I would assume that High will be very similar to the PS5 Performance RT mode. Which if true, just shows how good Nixxes is at optimization. The exclusives of RT-Shadows and Ambient occlusion requiring extra juice to run also make sense, those are the things that tank performance on pretty much every new release.
But the most surprising is th...
It's a very niche service, basically only for those that are interested in older games (most 16 bits and lower) and want to play them legally. Especially on a platform like the Xbox, which has access to emulators for every system available.
I would dig a version of that for the 6th and 7th gen though. The size of those games and the hardware required to run them nativaly. Gives a bit more justification for streaming them instead.
I understand that expectations are a very personal thing. But, I do feel that in order to feel disappointed by the releases of Minecraft Legends, Crash Team Rumble, Layers of Fear and Atomic Hearts you need to have very unfounded expectations for them. Because they delivered more or less what was promised and expected.
Now, titles like The Last of Us PC and Redfall I can understand. Nobody expected Sony to release such a broken mess of a port, especially of one of their mo...
What normally kills mobile games aren't the graphics or even the core of the gameplay. But rather the monetization and the fact that are often service games that stretch out way too much and ended up cannibalizing themselves in the process.
It makes sense for SE to go that direction given that with very few exceptions like FFXVI, most of their new releases are mediocre at best. And the games that do get the better reception tend to be, remakes and remasters of their old portfolio.
I think it's a bit too early to claim anything. We don't know exactly what is Sony offering here and how the PQ will even work. If it's indeed something akin to the PSVR2 that requires a PS5 console to function and is completely useless without one, then more than $200 would be a tough call. But if it's more than that then the analysis changes.
For example, right now there is another device being launched called the Abxylute, which aims to be the absolute s...
Oh, nice.
That was one of the Apple Arcade exclusives that I was really interested in playing. And Oceanhorn 2 also got a Steam page with a release scheduled for this year. So that only leave Fantasian and ChuChu Rocket! Universe stuck with Apple.
I wonder if this is to equate their service with what Sony asks for the PS Plus. As of now the prices of Live Gold are more or less the same as the PS Plus Essential whereas the GP Ultimate directly competes with the PS Plus Extra more or less coin per coin as well. The unfortunate victim in the middle is the GP Console. That was a much better deal and is now not that good anymore - still the best deal available in the region, as far as I'm aware.
Or if this is to keep...
Yeah, not a bad list.
But 3DO should be there for the huge impact that it had on the license agreements between publishers and console manufacturers. A big part of the "Nintendo exodus" was only possible because it opened the door for the later, much more competent, devices like the PS1 to steal games and publishers.
The original Xbox being listed is also odd. I could see an argument that it popularized online play on consoles, but even that is ...

Cause it's funny to see such a cesspool. The double standards, moving goalposts, the armchair lawyers and game developers, the most "brilliant" takes that show zero understanding of tech, business, etc.
All of that makes this one of the most terrible places for real discussion. But, the vast amounts of dumb shit that come out of your and many other fanboys' keyboard also makes it a terrific place for being entertained.
Well, this is N4G.
Famous across the web as the cesspool of Playstation fanboys. So it doesn't surprise me in the least.
But given the current output of PS5 exclusives, I don't see much to be mad about waiting. If anything it probably fits the schedule of many PC players.
You are overestimating the console's GPUs.
If we go by theoretical values we also need to keep with the same architecture. So the PS5 equivalent GPU would be the RX 6600 XT and the XSX would be the RX 6700. With the first being in the ~10% of the RX 5700 XT that is being required on PC.
If we go by actual real-world performance. Digital Foundry has stated many times that the RTX 2060 Super or the RTX 2070 are the closest approximation to the PS5. An...
Well, obviously anyone that is not a fanboy would prefer to see a PC receiving those games on day one. After all that would mean that you would only really need one single platform to have access to almost everything gaming can offer.
But, we know that is not happening because the PlayStation model is selling people hardware and then milking them with software and subscriptions. So they would be putting at risk of downsizing two of their three revenue sources and while the ...
Well, they wouldn't risk it.
Sure they could try to bury Dolphin in legal shenanigans, but they always run the risk of losing like previous lawsuits against this kind of software. And the ramifications of that would be disastrous for a company like Nintendo. That said, Dolphin not pushing their luck is also a smart direction.
