Re: New Xbox Game Pass Trailer Provides Fresh Look At Starfield

sjbsixpack

I hope i’m wrong but i have a feeling this is gonna be a disappointment. All the hype, the amount of time it took to show us actual gameplay footage, the alleged size of the game. 1000 different planets is it? Hope it’s not a case of planet 1, it’s dark. Planet 2, same but it’s sunny. Planet 3, same but it’s raining. Planet 4, same but the floor’s red instead of grey. Planet 227, same but it’s desert like. Planet 650, same but more good guys. Planet 998, same but more bad guys. I wait with bated breath. 🙏 🙏

Re: PlayStation's Jim Ryan Continues To Dismiss Game Pass-Style Launches

@GamerDad66 the hit would also be much bigger for Sony. Xbox exclusives sold on average 4.5 mill copies pre Game Pass, putting them on Game Pass day 1 means they could potentially lose 4.5 million sales. Obvs they’dmake some back from subs. PS exclusives sell on average 20 million copies, their biggest is Spiderman with over 26 million copies sold.

@BAMozzy it depends on the estimated sales of a game. Game Pass can be a great deal for devs as it guarantees them a return. If the game flunks they still get paid. The only reason Sony don’t put day 1 releases in PS+ is because the hit would be huge. Much bigger than the hit Microsoft take. PS exclusives often sell 20+ million copies, no way could they make that back putting it on PS+.

@NEStalgia but they’re the best at it. You have an incredible game with stunning visuals. But on top of that, the thing that sets it apart is the story and the performance. Acting as good as any movie, believable characters that you love or you hate or you don’t trust. Twist an turns, shocks, upsets, parts that terrify you, parts that upset ya, parts that make ya smile. Games like TLOU 1 an 2, the Uncharted series, God of War, Ghost of Tsushima, Spiderman and Miles, Days gone, etc. Yes, they’re not unique, they’re 3rd person, story driven games like Assassin’s Creed, Hitman, Gears, etc. but they’re the absolute best of their kind. Hence why they sell 20+ million copies.

@FreqMode Miles Morales, Ratchet an Clank, GT7, Returnal, Ghost of Tsushima, Uncharted 4.
Upcoming is Forspoken, God of War, Spiderman 2, Wolverine, Knights of the Old Republic, FF 16.
Xbox has Starfield which we’ve seen nothing of, Redfall, a couple of others that i forget. Thing is every PS5 game mentioned is guaranteed to be 10/10. Xbox not so much. Also saying Horizon is crap makes no sense. You mean you don’t like it, sales and reviews say otherwise. It’s subjective. Do you even own a PS5?

Re: Pick One: What Was Your Favourite Xbox Game Pass Game In May?

@awp69 i found that with some of the Pacman games, the original Pacman for instance. My kids have Pacman coin opp in their room an that’s much better to control with the original stick. I thought it was the analogue sticks, would prob work a lot better with an old Xbox 360 pad which can only move in 8 directions.

@Chaudy i think exclusives are important. A vast majority of folk who say they prefer Playstation say so because of the exclusives. PS exclusives really are on another level. This, imo, is why Playstation massively outsells Xbox, the exclusives. Other than that both PS5 an XSX are pretty identical.

Re: Random: Forget Phil's Shelf, Xbox Boss Drops Hint In New Profile Picture

@NEStalgia opinions my friend. My absolute fav games are basically the type of games PS devs make like the ones i mentioned. Kind of a Netflix series in video game form. TLOU 1 and 2 are my no.1 games ever. The story, the gameplay, the realism, the twists an turns, the shocks and the acting is as good as any Netflix series. I think Xbox would do well if they made similar games, PS exclusives often sell 20+ million copies. Xbox put exclusives on Game Pass so they prob wouldn’t sell as many as PS but they’d still sell millions.

@uptownsoul it’s the best Playstation line up to date. Returnal, Demon’s Souls, Deathloop, Horizon, Ratchet, Miles Morales, Gran Turismo 7, Forspoken, Sifu, Ghostwire Tokyo. Plus PS5 versions of games like Ghost of Tsushima, Uncharted 4 an Lost Legacy, God of War, Days Gone, etc. i do think Xbox have dropped the ball like they did with Xbox One. They’re letting Playstation run away with it again.

Re: Best Xbox Exclusives To Play In 2022

@S1ayeR74 your acting as tho i’m hating on Xbox, i’m not. I have a Series X, my kids av Series S. It’s a fact tho MS av dropped the ball. Again. I’m not saying Flight Sim isn’t exclusive, i’m saying it isn’t a Series X exclusive, it’s an old game that was originally made for PC. Like i wouldn’t say Knights of the Old republic is a PS5 exclusive. Also some PS games come to PC, not all and they come out up to 4 years after release. God of War recently landed, Ragnorok is out in a few months.
