Moving forward I think I’ll be using my PS5 primarily for exclusives. I’ve just started to pick up lots of 8th gen games as prices are now extremely cheap, most of these will now be the Xbox One versions thanks to features like FPS boost that could be implemented in future. Another thing great with the series X is the ability to use more than one USB drive so I can have everything installed ready to go.
I’d never subscribe to Game Pass, it’s just not for me. I see the appeal for others but as a collector it doesn’t interest me. Even an all-digital generation would be enough for me to stop buying the consoles and just enjoy collecting and playing the past 9 generations.
They also need to fix a critical bug that occurs when attempting to watch 1080/50hz Bly ray discs, an example are BBC documentaries such as frozen planet and blue planet. The disc will boot initially and a short while later the app will crash the console, causing it to shut down completely (including the beep sounds while shutting down). This fault only seems to happen with these blu rays and happens on every attempt. Standard movies/24hz discs seem to work.
Just make the game exclusive to Series X/S and PC. I don’t remember PS2 games having to be released to PS1. Give people a reason to upgrade their consoles
@Nightcrawler71 On PC it only uses just over 100GB, it could be further optimised for console. A lot of the data is streamed in from the cloud. Also keen to see how this will play on Series X, that's why I purchased the Windows store version, hopefully it will be play anywhere
I remember when The Rock was on stage at the reveal of the original Xbox, with Bill Gates, in full-on persona mode... I wish today's console reveals were as good

Re: Video: This New Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge Gameplay Looks Amazing
Why is the original theme music missing? I thought when Nickelodeon bought out the TMNT franchise it included everything, also the music rights?
