PlayStation should keep their games exclusive just like Xbox should and Nintendo always have. The PC crowd are pretty undeserving of the best franchises in gaming imo 🫣

@themightyant oh so it’s a fairly linear game then? Not as open as say Skyrim ? Or do you mean like space exploration lol

@Shinato2024 cool. It’s a game I’ve been interested ever since we first heard about it but not being an Xbox owner or pc I never got the chance to try it. Maybe that time is coming then thanks for the input 🫡

I’ve seen so much downbeat stuff about this game and I’m wondering if it’s worth a purchase?

I agree. Nintendo would never allow a Mario game on Xbox or PlayStation or Grsn Turismo on a pc or Nintendo. Master chief belongs to Xbox and Xbox only. I also think 40 million console sales is not to be sniffed at. Don’t go pc Xbox keep making consoles I say! Support you’re core audience

@Globo yes I think we all have the backlog problem no matter what platform we are on. I keep hearing about how there is no games this generation and the backlog says excuse me!!? 😁. I recently got 100% on Forza Horiozo 5. That chicken run achievement 🙈. Took me about 40 attempts to win a BR. Never ever playing that mode again! Which game are you most into at the moment. I was loving diablo4 until I started the end game level 300 grind.. man it’s savage! For example, it’s 12.5 billion XP to go from level 1-284.. then it’s another 12.5 billion xp to go from level 284-300. Make that make sense 😂

@Globo fair play. I think that’s what most do. I’m just to anal when it comes to having a complete list 🫣. It’s something I don’t really tell friends or family. My Mrs knows and she rips me for it 😆

@-taco for me mate it’s the whole thing not just the cost. Rarely do all games just run well on a pc whereas they are better optimised for console. Constantly needing to upgrade stuff and getting absolutely spanked in the process. And I love the ease of console gaming. No waiting for drivers to update etc etc. Plus I’d lose access to all the exclusive games like Bloodborne and Gran Turismo which I couldn’t do without honestly. I doubt I’ll ever get a PC for gaming but fair play to those that enjoy it.

@Globo absolutely mate. No mither here! No worries at all. My mate is trying to platinum all the RE games which is a big ask as there is tons of them 😂. Are you a cheevo hunter then? I myself am I trophy hunter to my detriment most of the time. This Diablo 4 grind for the last trophy is killing me but I will get there I promise! I thank Xbox for creating the cheevo system because without it we wouldn’t have trophies either 👍🏻

@Globo I don’t think pointing out the differences is putting one version down over another. It’s just pointing out the differences. And that’s the sort of thing nerds look for really. The amount criticism the PS5 PRO has had from DF is immense. Videos like is the pro worth it etc. But I don’t take offence to that with it being my console of choice, I just accept it and get on with it. You too mate! What games are you playing this weekend?. I’ve been carrying on my Disblo4 paragon 300 grind and also some Roadcraft

@Globo I’m really not. I tried to make the point that who would you believe about game perf analysis, some random commenter on the internet or actual tech experts who do actual tests on this stuff. Pretty basic point really. Absolutely nothing to do with PlayStation whatsoever. Then someone made the point of saying if you are looking for the best game performance then you should play on a pc to which I backed Xbox by saying I’d rather game on a series X than a PC. It just so happens I already have the best console around in terms of performance 💁 If someone takes that as fanboying or antagonistic then that’s not my problem. It’s just a fact. Not trying to argue just state facts. I’d much prefer to game on a series x than a PC 100%. Fyi I’ve been absolutely hating on Sony for what they’ve done recently and the proof is over there on PS 🫡. Hope you have a good Sunday 👍🏻

@Gemini53 do you always call someone with a different opinion to yours a troll? . DF are tech experts. They do analysis on things like framerates and resolutions and general gaming performance . If you can’t accept that then I’m not the one with the problem here. Good day 👍🏻

@Gemini53 DF fanboy lol. How dare I respect the opinion of actual tech experts i do apologise 🙏

@antonioacm I’d rather platt ***** then game on a pc mate. Garbage platform full of cheaters and hackers and exorbitantly expensive. I’d rather own a series X but I already have the best console around more than happy with it

@Gemini53 so you’d risk paying £70 for a game you’re not sure about because you wouldn’t trust digital foundry’s opinion. I think you’re talking absolute rubbish frankly. They mention plenty of games having frame drops and don’t write them off. You obviously just don’t like them

@Balaam_ a friend has got it for PRO. Says it’s unreal so enjoy mate

@Gemini53 who would you prefer to trust though. Experts or some random commenter on a web page

It’s not the future of Xbox but more the future of Ms as a whole. If trends are to continue it looks like the world is abandoning windows in favour of ai. And Ms are well behind in that space.

Did she ask ai to answer the question for her

I heard countries around the world are dropping windows in favour of ai. And MS seems to be behind in the AI race? Will this be the start of an enormous fall from grace for the company?

Are these people just trying to justify there jobs

@InheritNegative the problem with digital right there 💁. Never EVER make you’re entire library digital people but I guess it’s too late for many

@HonestHick yes which goes back to my point about this being a cost vs revenue exercise. Less people on the books makes the revenue look better. The problem with capitalism frankly. I’d still take it over the other obvs but we are kind of reaching a crescendo now in the capitalist world. The future for my kids is a big worry for me. What will it be like in 10/20 years time

@Questionable_Duck Xbox did it out of necessity since they conditioned their own users into subs based rental gaming. PS and Nintendo don’t have that problem. PS makes more revenue than Nintendo Xbox and even pc. To me this seems like an exercise to increase revenue over costs but I’m sure they could have shuttered a less beloved studio than Bluepoint. Not sure I’ll ever forgive them for this one. Took me a long time to get over evolution lol

@OldGamer999 people don’t love Sony bro. They love PlayStation

Sony:

we’ve built up loads of goodwill and hype with that state of play lads

Sony:

anyone got a hammer?

Absolutely tragic

Creation engine! Again! 🙈

@Balaam_ yes it really is that simple lol. Don’t see how that’s a headline really. Let’s look at the improvements the PRO gives to a game like Gran Turismo 7 for example and its extra gears are clear too see. The RT implementation is sublime which base PS5 cannot do

The dualsense is pukka. I don’t get why you wouldn’t use a symmetrical layout when you’re hands are symmetrical (well unless you’ve had an accident with a lathe or something)

@TrollOfWar for sure. Seems like the best way to do it

@TrollOfWar no but they’d also be stupid to stop making the SP stuff considering the sales of some of the franchises since PS4 gen. Spider-Man and horizon alone are nearing 100m copies. I guess the idea is to have some MP games like Helldivers that will pay for the SP games we all know and love. Seems a sensible strategy

@fatpunkslim well the bigger reveal at the end was the god of war trilogy remake that is absolutely huge! The 2.5 was a bonus addition to that which isn’t bad at all. I thought it was an excellent showing. And considering the first party stuff we already know of there is going to be too much to buy on PS5 in the near future I’d say. That’s the bonus of keeping first party locked in, people can make the choice of having all the best third party releases plus the first party when it drops. I guess that’s now lost on MS as they have made everything available to any platform devaluating its hardware even more(well except switch it seems)

I’ll be giving FH6 a miss. I got bored with 5 pretty quickly. I prefer competitive online sim racing

So expect another price increase this year then?

The price is a bit rubbish (when I paid £70 for it 😆) but the game is incredible

@themightyant Considering GTAV has just hit 225 million sales I don’t think Rockstar will be worrying about sales. It’s going to break the records GTAV set you can bet your left leg on it. And the major console players are going to do well off the back of it. GTA is probably the biggest hardware shifter going. I reckon both Xbox and PS will sell millions of consoles off the back of it

May end up getting it at some point but I got rather bored of 5 after about 30 hours and ended up back on GT. hopefully there’s a physical as I’m done with digital rip offs. we will see

If the gunplay is top tier Bungie should be decent. I’m more of a single player gamer but since Helldivers 2 I’m actually interested more and more with MP

@IssaBrvndo the guy I get my PS1 games from on eBay has a very good condition copy right now. £150 odd I think . Chillout games.co.uk is his website or find him on eBay. Best seller around and does all platforms too. If they remake that I would lose it literally lol

@HonestHick I would argue that on first party games it’s excellent. Just come from Spider-Man 2 to forbidden west and the graphics are astonishing. But yeah shadows also top draw the rtgi changes the game entirely

@HonestHick I love the pro it excels on a lot of games I’ve found

@IssaBrvndo it’s excellent and rebirth is even better 🎉🎉🎉. On the legend of dragoon thing I have original copies of both mint condition in my collection. LOD is going for 150 sheets these days

FF7 og is one of the greatest video games ever made imo

@smoreon nah it was something like wrecknation. I still haven’t thought of it after a full night shift. I’m going have to google it 😂

WRECKLESS!!! 😆👍🏻

I liked that car game on the first Xbox. Used to play it at a mates house. Can’t remember what it’s called for the life of me but the car looked like the back to the future Delorean and you used to trash the place lol gonna try remember it without googling 😂

@TheGameThrifter I’d say the first few years of PS3 was by far the worst Sony output ever. PS5 has been barnstorming in comparison

If you only want third party (which includes MS games now because they are) and are happy renting your games the. Xbox is a good place to play. If no then it’s PS
