I've been playing Dreams since early access and I have to say it's one of the most innovative, magical and complete experiences I've played this generation.
I don't think it's for everyone, but for those with a creative flair or simply for gamers that are happy to while away a few hours Dream surfing and playing through the creations of others, it really is a fantastic product that does waaay more than games based around similar concepts released in the ...

**"You made two points. One was about Ebola. The other was that there was only a 1% difference between coronavirus and the common flu"**
Crux: The basic, central or critical point.
You took a cheap shot, got called out and now you're arguing irrelevant points to try and save face. We both know exactly what the "crux" of the argument means and it most certainly isn't two points, it is however EXACTLY the d...
@Master
Doubtful. It's unlikely production on the new consoles will begin before June and both Sony and Microsoft have the foresight and resources to move production to factories located elsewhere in the world prior to starting manufacture.
It's also likely that both companies already have plans in place to action this if required in light of the potential increase on import tax (currently 10% , potentially 25%) that may be levied by the US Govern...
@Razzer
**"The percentage delta was the crux of your argument and it was in error and I simply pointed that out"**
No. It wasn't.
The crux of the argument was that by comparing Covid-19 (3% mortality rate) to the Ebola pandemic (50% mortality rate) there was a "delta"of 16.6x, meaning that the Anubis had unintentionally downplayed the the virus himself, the very thing he had chastised Ausbo for.
@Razzer
You don't realise it, but you're making my arguments for me.
**"when the attack on the person is completely irrelevant to the argument the person is making"**
You pointing out an error in my math does nothing to change the fact that comparing Covid-19 (3% mortality) to Ebola (50% mortality) only serves to highlight the fact that the virus has more in common with the common flu than it does a lethal epidemic.

@Razzer
**"rather than attacking the substance of the argument itself"**
The argument is that it's hypocritical to tell another user not to downplay something whilst at the same time presenting facts that (unitentionally) downplay the very same thing.
You pointing out an inaccuracy in my math did nothing to diminish my argument, therefore by the very definition you presented you are making an ad hominem argument because yo...
@Anubis
**"You just don't get it. It's ok. Let us move on"**
I "get it" just fine, it's just that your comments are nonsensical and without point.
You also said this..
**"When have you seen cities being corantined over the flu or hospitals being built in a few days for the flu? Exactly."**
So, You're comparing the flu, a virus that is well known, underst...
@Anubis
How does anything you've just written challenge the point I made?
You made a statement telling another user not to downplay the virus, whilst at the same time downplaying the virus yourself.
That's my point, I don't care what Ausbo said, it's irrelevant to my comment, I replied to what you posted, not what another user wrote.
@Anubis
**"I don't think you understand what I was saying"**
You told someone else not to downplay the virus whilst in the same breath comparing the virus with Ebola.
You could not have presented facts that downplayed the virus any more.
@Reddevils
Why would I need to go to China to understand the lethality of Covid-19?
@Razzer
Regardless, Your correction doesn't alter my point that putting '19 (1% OR 3%) and Ebola in the same sentence does nothing to emphasize the seriousness of the virus and only serves to downplay it's lethality.
Ad hominem reply Razzer.
@Anubis
**"So don't downplay the coronavirus outbrake"**
You just downplayed the virus yourself when you stated it was only 1% more deadly than the common flu and has a mortality rate 16.6 times less lethal than ebola.
@Segagamer
**"You love the game, this guy doesn't love it. Why is that so hard to comprehend?"**
This.
**"you can't force people to like everything you like"**
Well said.
@FallenAngel
Haha, not at all,
In fact, as an early launch title I thought Knack was a fun little game that provided a good few hours of enjoyment.
I also really enjoyed the the much maligned Order 1886, the graphics were (and still are) incredible and I thought the cover based shooting sections were great fun, I just wish they had been a little more fleshed out. Hopefully the (rumoured) sequel will rectify this if / when it comes to fr...
Happy that haptic feedback is coming to PlayStation, however Nintendo Switch has featured haptics in it's joycons since release just as Xbox One has featured the technology in it's controllers since 2013.
@Killbill
**"He is not joking. He is not known to use sarcasm in his writing"**
No. He doesn't - As per my previous comment I looked back through his previous Forbes submissions.
**"and actually appears to think Knack was a big hit for Sony"**
If he appears to truly believe that Knack was a big hot for Sony as you have stated, then he is NOT using sarcasm in his writing which makes your first p...
@Razzer
Rhetorical.
Razzer
**"Questioned answered then: it isn't to be taken seriously. If you asked him directly, that is what he would say."**
I feel like you want to have an argument Razzer, unfortunately I'm not down for that.
So let's just say that whatever point it is you're trying to make - you win buddy.
@Razzer
Yeah, I agree it's easy to chalk it up as humour / sarcasm, which is why I asked if the author was joking.
Looking back through the articles the author has submitted in the past, he doesn't seem to write in a style that I'd associate with wit or sarcasm, which is why I still think it's a strange comment for him to make.
**"Sony is not just the company that makes PlayStation, Sony is the publisher of Bloodborne, God of War, Uncharted 4, Spider-Man, Horizon Zero Dawn, Death Stranding, the upcoming Ghosts of Tsushima and The Last of Us Part 2, and, most importantly, Knack"**
Knack? Is the author of this article joking, It's not a bad game, but it's hardly in the same league as the titles mentioned before it?
Interesting. Confirmed RDNA 2.0 AND 12TF, Variable Rate Shading and Direct X Ray Tracing.
Turns out the Digital Foundry / Komachi Ensaka GitHub leak was correct on the TF's. The 9.2TF PS5 information was part of the same leak, I think it's highly likely that this will also turn out to be true.
Regardless, great news for gamers looking forward to the Series X.
