Lol. "Exclusives don't matter". Okay. Tell that to Phil Spencer while he's busy throwing money at 3rd parties who might want to lend them a timed exclusive. Or better yet, tell that to Nadella while he's being briefed about the state of Xbox.
Now, if exclusives don't matter and they don't influence someone's choice in buying a console, then why is Nadella bothering with funding them? Why not just make a conso...
@81BX:
You're really telling people to get a job? You're acting exactly like E3 2006 era Sony. And PS4 Pro might not be doing the best but this thing is, like everyone else is saying, dead on arrival.
@chano
That's pretty sad. MS created a studio specifically for pumping out one specific series. You know they're kicking themselves for not letting Bungie create Destiny, right? That giant franchise could have been theirs if they would have just given their biggest studio the freedom to make it.
Atleast let them have a break from it. Maybe they could learn something and improve the series? Uncharted gunplay, stealth, AI, exploration, and interacti...

Photorealism? Really? The environments and characters were more low poly than some games from last gen. It was, however, one of the best running engines. Almost every version of MGSV runs at a stable frame rate. The PS4 version even ran at a near perfect 1080p 60fps all of the time, but the game wasn't really a looker. At a distance everything looked great though, but that's pretty typical of anything that's far away.
Game development didn't need millions of dollars and giant teams during the 6th gen (PS2 era). It had what was considered middleware, games that could be made on a smaller budget with a smaller team, sell 100 thousand copies and be considered a success. I'd even consider most of the best AAA titles of that gen to be varying levels of middleware.
Now games cost millions of dollars, need giant teams of anywhere between 80 to 1000 people and need to sell 5 million copi...
@Mulando
Yeah... You're completely wrong. The problem with how MS "buys" exclusives is that they simply pay for them to not show up on other consoles and they're ambiguous about how "exclusive" the games are. Just look at all of the terrible wording over Rise of the Tomb Raider. They got flack over that because nobody was sure what was going on with that game's exclusivity and it was clear that they just paid for it to not show up elsewhere. ...
We need to retire the 5 star rating system because you guys don't get it at all. Think of it like an A-F grade. 5 is A, 4 is B, 3 is C, 2 is D, and 1 is F.
@Cueil
Cool. Do something with them then? It doesn't matter how many IPs they have if they never do anything with them.

Definitely nothing racist.
No, best decision was getting rid of Mattrick and the DRM.
Yeah. But that's a flawed comparison. PSVR is worse than some other VR headsets but it can still have amazing games and it doing well will only help VR as a whole as it gets more people to try it and it gets more devs to dip their toes into it.
COD is just one game and it doesn't tend to be very amazing. COD's success also doesn't really benefit other games though it can be a gateway for new gamers.
The Order cost a lot more and sold less. Probably not gonna happen anytime soon with that hanging over a potential sequel's head.
Reposting what I said about this topic from an earlier thread months ago:
Fallout 4 was announced and then released within months of each other. Cool. Still had to wait years to hear anything about it. The 4 year anticipation wasn't fun. We knew they were probably working on Fallout 4 but we just didn't hear anything concrete about it. The approach with Death Stranding is pretty similar except we do actually hear about it. We still have to wait all the same. I'd...
Forreal. Just the start of next year is filled with games. I personally can't wait to play Nier: Automata and Gravity Rush 2.

Spoken like someone who doesn't understand what Checkerboard rendering is.
Yes. Play grounded if you want to test your limits in TLOU, but crushing in Uncharted is just BS. Some games are best played on lower difficulties.
You wouldn't be able to use half of the most exciting, moment to moment tactics in an Uncharted game if you played on hard, let alone Crushing. The games are great arena shooters and you need to be able to take some hits in arena shooters so you can better position yourself to dish it back, harder. Specifically in Uncharted ...
Problem is, older Xbox Ones don't have UHD capabilities. They can't sell Xbox One games on UHD discs unless they specifically label them unplayable on the original Xbox One, which will just lead to headaches. This means they'll have to print games on both formats for Xbox One or they'll just not use UHD BDs for gaming this gen. Next-gen will likely see the full adoption of UHD and they'll abandon original BDs.
The Last Guardian was already deep into development, the PS3 just couldn't handle it. We already saw in-game footage years ago. I swear, false equivalency is gonna destroy the world.
Not sure about that one but their TVs are among the best for low input lag. Just test it out with a game, preferably a 60fps fighting or racing game.

What are you even trying to say? Playstation owners only have exclusives to play? But it's the main console where multiplats are played... Along with being the console with the most exclusives.
And it leaves plenty of time to bitch FOR Xbox fans? You're saying Xbox fans are the ones bitching. I'm sorry if English is your second language but I'm really confused about what you're implying and I don't think you understand the...
