All FUD eventually dissipates. It just may take a while.

I still don't totally get that, if someone will buy PS5 in 6 months or a year, will he still have access to those games?

I can actually decide to re-sell some of the games I already own on disk at this point. A few euros each, of course, but it would probably be enough to fund 1 year of PS+

I will never understand people like shinobi. Buying a whole new expensive box to play the same game you can play on PS5 at near equal fidelity.

At least say The Medium or some other timed exclusive. It absolutely shows how thin the xbox line up is. Everyone is quoting multi platform titles in the comments

Looks like Shinobi goes with the 'best place to play' narrative, even though we haven't even watched any XSX gameplay for the sake of comparison.

They haven't played every card. They'll show more megatons, as I'm sure FFXVI isn't the only thing they have. I expect a pretty strong State of Play at the end of the year to show what's coming in 2021.

On another musing note--

There's a couple of good reasons Xbox has creeped up in the polls.

Number 1: Truly, it isn't a bad system, really. It lacks games and they've had struggles, but they'll turn it around. They somehow survived Xbox One's disaster which was far worse.

Number 2: This is probably a lack of hope or frustration. What I mean that is the retailer fiasco burned a lot of people last week, so people feel very upset they didn't get remotely get a chance at a PS5, nor do they feel they'll be able to anytime soon(despite Sony's assauge). Even those that did get one may not get it on launch.

My best friend from college, I was finally able to save him by hotlinking Amazon when it went live. In the aftermath of that, he was selected by Sony.

Before those fortuitous circumstances, he was absolutely livid.

So, many may go with the Xbox, believing the order to the reservations gives them an easier ticket into next gen.

The next big show is likely to be in the game awards followed by an event in June. I would recommend not to have high expectations

PS5 Dev API is almost the exact same as PS4 Dev API with new tool sets for new features for PS5. So it has made Dev time easier for devs. Xbox has new GDK API, Xbox used to use XDK. So devs having to learn GDK. Then the issues with PC's running GDK API and emulating Xbox Series X features made in the console hardware has been a challenge at launch. But GDK API has gotten better. Things are improving on Dev Front. Xbox series X will be fine and games are going to be fine. Just a bumpy start and learning curve.

Can you provide a source for PS5 API being same as PS4 API?

The article has some interesting bits such as this:



Some of the same sentiment as yourself 🍻. If it's damage control I don't see how it'll help in light of the thinking you (and the article) have presented here but you could be on the money.

The only way MM and HFW on PS4 would not hold PS5 back is if they are different games made by different teams, the likes we saw Ghostbusters game for PS4/XO and Switch.

That's been his mantra from day one. Getting that "time to triangle" figure as low as possible. The total opposite of Crazy Ken.

Yep, I remember Cerny saying during the PS4 reveal in the 2013 Feb conference: "PS4 is a platform that's created by game creators for game creators". And this approach really seem to have paid dividends for them.

Man there was a lot of shitty post several pages back. High level Fud & all kinds nonsense. I don't understand people having to justify their spend downplaying a box they wont buy. Bizarre. I was wondering why there was so many shitty post .And once again Xbox guys have no top quality game to play. The very same multiplats that play better on xbox. Strangely one of those multiplats has an alpha weekend only on PS4. But they say xbox was the best to play ,but here we are no alpha gameplay.

COD: Black Ops Cold War Multiplayer Alpha Is Exclusive To PS4 Players. The Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War multiplayer alpha will be open exclusively for Playstation 4 players this weekend from September 18th to the 20th.

Thats why there was Fud guys. Another weekend of not being able to play a top quality game on xbox.

Anyway. Next topic it will be the Tokyo Game show next week. Any comments?

I was one of the 100 that got selected to be in on that Zoom call with Keighley about the game awards. Starts at 4pm EST.

I did see that he wouldn't reveal much about the awards itself. Just asking for fan ideas and will ask questions. Curious on this one.

Geez you're reading way too much into it. He's buying both and will be getting multiplats on the more powerful system. Anyone that's going to day 1 both systems will be using PS5 as the exclusive box.

Yeah. I don't get it. It sounds like a waste of money for 3 extra pixels. If Assassins Creed Valhalla is the one game he wants to play first on his brand new Xbox Series X and he could do the same perfectly on his PS5 then he definitely does not need his Xbox Series X.

The impression I always got from Shinobi is that he's a fanboy for AAA console gaming and was likely going to day 1 both consoles even before a single game was announced. So it makes sense for him to go with 3rd parties on the more powerful system.

I would wait and see what is the real life difference in power and how it translate into actual image quality and performance of games..
TFlops are nice and all, but MS changing wording from "most powerfull console" to "most powerfull xbox" doesn't inspire confidence in undisputable power king crown being given to XsX.

There's still so many mentally insane xbox fanboys like Blue negroho
Click to expand...

~I am really beginning to think there is some sort of mental issue with some of these xbox fanatics, Why are there so many of them, i don't see this kinda of retard level on the ps5 side, am i looking in the wrong places or something.

sure you get extreme fans but this is more than that, this is like some sort of neanderthal obsession, " you woman come cave now", "Me no like me smash", "xbox has no games but is best."

What is happening?
 
I'm hoping pre-orders for Xbox are going to be done properly but I can see it being an utter shitshow. What's stopping me from going PS5 is that I have a massive backlog of physical Xbox one games I spent almost £400 on the lot of them as I was sure I was going with the X but if I can't get a pre-order it's looking like im gonna have to fall back on my ps5 preorder

Big man its your money. Do what you want to do!!! Whatever happens you can almost reverse any decision. You can sell & trade to CEX/Game or just buy both. It's all jiggy. Do what you want to do!!

In my opinion some of xbox fans really hoped that MS will turn tables with the new generation. They patiently suffer as underdogs through ps4/x1 era in hope that MS will somehow return to glorious x360 days and will stand on equal ground agains Sony.
And now on the less than inspiring news from xbox side they experience mental breakdown on the basis their hope left unfulfilled and go through rapid radicalization, which is typical in such situations.

I don't how I can provide a source with out endangering people's jobs. But from What I have been told API is very much like PS4 api with some more layers for feature sets. Devs where up and running quickly on it.

i was not around consoles back then, but i can see this being part of the problem.

I don't want to nation point but is this an American thing perhaps, i think about all those colts dealer timdogs etc there all American, its bad of me to generalize like this but it does seem rather, whats that American saying "Frat boy like?"

its probably not that, sorry to other Americans if i put you in the same boat, its just so strange.

Microsoft Reportedly Selling Xbox Series X at a Loss, Series S at Even Bigger Loss

When the Xbox Series X and the Xbox Series S release later this year, Microsoft will apparently take a decent loss on both consoles, with the latter being more significant. The rumor comes from analysts Benji-Sales and Jeff Grubb on Twitter, and their exchange can be viewed below. Given the fact...

Yes It was an is obvious the S is expensive the thing is Gamepass is also not making money yet.

The thing with Gamepass was introduce a couple of years ago and this doesn't increase the sales also the same for
current more powerful console Xbox one X.

Xbox has a couple years doing a couple of strategies which doesn't have a real impact in sales. Xbox is wrong if think
Apple and Google will allow them to have gamepass in their systems for a long period of time without a part of the income.

They basically say the exclusives doesn't matter only the services so yeah so for this reason we don't have any big first IP exclusive
the first two years against Playstation and Nintendo which both have IPs more popular a closer to be release than Xbox has.

Xbox can have good sales if they release a big game its first year but think its competition cannot respond using their IPs is
wrong.

One of my friends told me if when I saw the preorder for XSX I can tell him.

I say yes sure not a problem but then I asked to him which game he will use for first time.

He replied me Cyberpunk but I told him that game will not have patch until the next year
and also the game is release one week later.

After that I was able to see the void in its eyes while he was trying to think a game.
