This doesn't seem all that logical to me. If it's true that you make more money going multiplat, then why have exclusives at all? Why isn't Halo going to PS5? Or God of War going to Series X?
I'm curious to see how this affects Deathloop. that was being marketed as a PS5/PC game.
MS has been good about honoring certain releases in the past. They own Obsidian, but Outter Worlds is still multiplat. They own Mojang, but Minecraft and Minecraft Dungeons are also multiplat.
Damn man. You're still around? I remember you from years and years ago. You were one of the primary people that make N4G such a wildly unbearable place. Sucks to see you're still here.
At least MS pushes all of their stuff to PC, giving way more people a chance to play their games. So there's that. How did you feel when Sony bought Insomniac?
PC has the largest game library. Why do you idiots keep saying this? Is it because you've been a mouth breathing fanboy for so long that you forgot other game platforms exist? If all you had to play for the last 20 years is playstation, i feel incredibly bad for you. Not just for the decreasing number of worthwhile exclusives, but because every single 3rd party game looked like dog shit compared to how it looks on PC. Oops. Reality. Novel.
I get it. You have a bias. But no pc gamer has a pc because of early access games. Just because you're wildly dependent on console for entertainment, and don't know the first thing about PC gaming, doesn't mean you get to insert your ignorance into this. We don't care about your uninformed opinion. Nobody is trying to convince you, specifically, that you need to play games on PC. You are clearly happy with the inferior product. More power to you.
It's a value thing. I paid $60 for Tsushima and hugely regretted it. I paid $20 for Rocket League and have played 300-400 hours. I'd pay $70 for something that I know is going to keep me entertained for dozens of hours, but I won't be paying $70 for something like COD.
What on earth are you talking about? Do you even read what you write? It's such a pathetic perspective. PC has no games to offer? Are you crazy? What does PS5 have even with Demon's Souls? It has Demon's Souls and Spider-man and.....Astrobot. That's it. And we know Demon's Souls is coming to PC, despite how desperately you want to believe it's not.
it's amazing that this site is still like this. A site filled with jaded fanboys who s...
Of course it is. They are just trying to find reasons for you to buy this console because right now, it's looking really bleak. That's why the end of the show mentions something we already knew...that God of War was in the works...but didn't actually show any gameplay. There is no compelling reason to get a ps5 at launch over xbox or pc. Get a 3080 RTX!
That's all well and good, if true; but we all know that in 2-3 years both companies will release the advanced version of their machines, and that could completely change.
agreed. I will buy a ps5 because I don't need to buy an xbox (have gamepass on pc), but neither company has shown me a game that would really convince me that I NEED their machine on day one.
His gripe with PS3 was perfectly legitimate and it demonstrated why 3rd party titles struggled to look as good on that hardware for the first few years. He basically said "they changed the architecture to something no developer was asking for."
People don't realize how nefarious of a move the cell processor was. They deliberately made it the way that they did thinking that they'd be the lead development platform for 3rd party given their insane popularity...
No, they are saying they have no idea what they are talking about.
How is there still even a console war on n4g? From everything we know, both new consoles are running basically the same hardware and will have extremely similar performance. And both are already weaker than the PC that I have, so it's like a bunch of idiots (who have NOTHING to do with the development of these systems) competing for distant second bragging rights.
I can't believe people are still dumb enough to keep saying this. I've been gone for 10+ years and it's like I never left. You think Sony doesn't throw money at devs? Ridiculous fanboy claim.
And of course they're going to say something like this. Just like any 3rd party developer who got help with funding would praise the company that funded them. What an incredibly stupid thing to get worked up about.
