Square Enix says Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth fell below expectations, but it's a special game regardless
I love these two games, and no disrespect for the original which I played on my PS1 and several times since then, I would much rather play the remakes. The game play is just so much fun and the characters just have so much more life and personality plus it has the modern sensibilities that are hard to give up.
It's a shame that they haven't found the success SE wanted, and while people of course want to blame PlayStation I feel like Final Fantasy just doesn't have the effect it used to. Younger people have zero attachment to the series and have zero nostalgia.
And I still think that PlayStation will be the best selling platform by a long shot, FF16 on steam even at $50 isn't selling nearly as well as it did on PS5 where it sold 3.5 million in its first week. Looking at the numbers on Steam if the game has sold 1 million so far I'd be surprised.
It was everything I wanted from it to be honest. And part 3 will expand on that with airship travel. Hope Switch 2 is powerful enough for it, because that's where the sales are in Japan. It deserves success with the love that went into it.
Why do you need a better PS5 when there aren’t any games that will utilise its power?
You technically don't "need" the ps5, ps4 or the ps3, lol. You don't need any videogame console, it isn't a necessity of life. If you want the best playstation console money can by, that would be the ps5 pro.
Why does a random remaster do that? There's going to be plenty of games that utilise it over the next 4 years. And plenty already released that will benefit from it. If you don't want one fine, but what's with all the nonsense bashing of it
Uhhh. I was going to write something but it's so tedious knowing that everybody will just rip me.
There are over 8500 games that use dynamic resolution scaling and struggle to hold fps that out of the box will utilize its power.
Games are already lined up for patches and more games that haven't been announced yet will use it.
But of course talking about what it actually does won't get as many clicks.
no
it adds to your opinion
it's doesn't prove anything
and even besides that, one game wouldn't prove that anyway
that's silly
There are four elements in Enotria: The Last Song's elemental system, but one stands out among the rest, to the point it has become a favorite.
PS5: 621,337
Switch: 223,760
Xbox Series: 126,939
PS5 compared to PS4: up by nearly 30,000 units
Xbox Series compared to Xbox One: down by nearly 111,000 units
PS5 up 103.6%
Xbox Series down 35.4%
Forza and Starfield made zero impact.
Damn 5-1 ratio in PS5’s favor.
Xbox Series S/X declines in the third year and loses more ground to Xb1 which is considered the worst Xbox console. That is just bad no matter how you spin it.
How is the Xbox selling so badly compared to the much worse Xbox one at this point in its life cycle? Series S/X life has not been bad tbh. The Xbox one was dog s***.
My guess is Microsoft did so bad last gen a lot of their fan base left and got a ps5. Don't blame them tbh.
Where are the toxic Xbox Ambassadors?
Yeah they are very busy gloating in one of the posts that say “Harry Krueger” departs first party Housemarque 🤦🏻♂️
