I don't see AMD's current tech providing enough of an upgrade to justify spending another $750AUD+ on each.
I could see existing owners being pissed off when they have finally just managed to secure a console due to stock shortages learning their system is soon to be obsolete.
Awesome to see this coming to multiple consoles and PC but I'm bummed out about this being an Epic Store exclusive as I don't like the Epic client.
Hopefully FFXVI can have it's own identity that resonates with more gamers then FFXV did.
Killstreaks IMO exacerbate snowballing which leads to less competitive matches.
This game has zero appeal to me but hopefully becomes a viable alternative to COD.
Stuff like this makes me glad I am a former SE/FF fan.
SE seem to be great at generating negative press while stupidly losing sales in the process. From a scummy business perspective it could have made sense if SE limited supply then sold the game for an abnormally high price but the only people who benefit from this situation are scalpers.
People dislike the interactions because they are poor not fitting the characters nor setting in their opinions. Prior Horizon games being criticised as a white saviour games by SJWs probably in part lead to the story choices in this DLC.
I can see Game Pass reducing sales of triple AAA games on release while increasing lifetime sales of games especially games that don't have much media exposure.
I've bought games I've tried on Game Pass, mostly for PC but some on Xbox including seventh and eighth console generation games (physical and digital, I prefer physical but that's not always an option).
Surprised this turned out so well on all platforms given the developer changes over the years.
The Xbox 360 with Kinect around 2010 (probably before that behind the scenes) was when MS started dropping the ball badly and they've been doing it ever since.
I thought this was News 4 Gamers NOT Ads 4 Gamers.
tri-Ace's games are generally a slow burn that you either warm up to or stop playing.
SE management are dumb AF.
Octopath Traveller 1 was on Xbox consoles but not on PS consoles, Octopath Traveler II was on PS consoles but not on Xbox consoles. I suspect MS did a deal with SE for Octopath Traveler 1 but still.
The Tomb Raider deal was another eye rolling moment and would have hurt the franchise overall. Stupid short term choices at the expense of the long term are why SE is in a mess.
I'm sure SE's games would se...
Depends on who's developing said revivals. I'd rather franchises lay dormant then the subpar revivals SE has put out the last ~10 years. So many of their smaller budget games are uneven, even basic stuff like the lack of texture consistency make me wonder if there's any QA and really hurts the initial impressions of the game.
What looks the best is subjective.
Burning Shores doesn't look photorealistic so does that mean it's not as good looking as a more photorealistic game?
I've personally never put much weight in photorealism because I enjoy games with stylised graphics as well, if all games started to look photorealistic that would be boring IMO.
It's good that Sony are acquiring additional studios for their GaaS and not forcing their existing studios that have specialised in single player games into making GaaS.
I could only see myself paying for premium subscription services for Microsoft and Sony platforms, I do not want to support Amazon or Netflix for a variety of reasons I won't go into.
I hope premium subscription services don't become a thing on PC as I'm not willing to pay...
Both MS and Sony have made a bunch of lies like 4k and 8k being possible on their consoles but as we've seen that's not possible most of the time (games with Dynamic Resolution Scaling aren't true native). Just because something is theoretically possible doesn't mean it will apply to every game.
If you want to believe marketing or think it has to be backed up by reality that's your choice but rarely have any of these marketing claims been borne out by re...
The core gameplay of Halo Infinite on launch was good but 343i failed miserably at supporting the game by adding content. A dumpster fire would be a game that is outright broken to the point of being unplayable like the port of TLoU Part 1 on midrange PC.
Some jerk already spoiled the plot for me on social media and you'll be disappointed, at least it isn't as bad as TLoU Part 2.
It's going to take some serious effort to top COD given all the game modes it has.
I'd like to see Sony make their own flavour of AAA FPS and not just try to make a COD-like game.
If Sony can make a fluid and fast paced FPS that is fun to play I could see it gaining traction, Killzone always struggled because it had a slower, more deliberate pace which meant it was harder to get into and turned a lot of players off.
An open worl...
This will just drag on even longer and regardless of the outcome in the meantime the uncertainty means ABK will be even more risk averse with their games then they already were (they're not known for being innovative or taking risks and Blizzard have fallen off now milking their existing IPs and making games that cater to the mass market).
IMO ABK represents some of the worse tendencies of the industry, it will be interesting to see what happens to Kotick if the merger ...
