Phil Spencer: XGS titles for the “next couple of years” will be cross-gen

Doesnt MS have 3 exclusive titles now and they are basically DOA? I cant recall the names but one was a COD clone from China, a survival game still in EA and Phantasy Star online. no one is playing and no one is talking about them, $$$$ down the drain.
crossfire x might be a chinese ip but remedy entertainment is making the single player. I think a lot of people missed that.

What about Remedy's Crossfire X campaign? The snippets of actual gameplay looked better than any gameplay I saw at the Sony show, and guess what?

It's cross generation.

Can't wait for the "worlds most powerful console" to be the "worlds fastest selling family of consoles" next gen.

Man the spin they're going to put on next-gen sales is going to be awesome.

"Today we announce that the XSX and xbox family have sold 60 million consoles, one day after the XSX release, making it the worlds fastest selling next gen console family"
 
LOL

Is this the reason why Sony fanboys are upset because they can't use this to laugh at Xbots?

The show of Weak and Weaker on gaf is more exciting than next gen consoles.

Honestly, reading these threads is the most fun I've had on a gaming forum for 10 years haha. So many fanboys just made themselves look like complete idiots all in the name of console warring and defending their favourite piece of plastics honour lol.

Today is a great day in gaf History. So many diehard Sony fans have just conspicuously gone missing today lol

I hope the news of both next gen consoles being a waste of fucking time helps the fanboys sleep better, because it certainly doesn't make any gamers happy.
Seriously these fools are so busy try to make each other eat crow...to actually realize what SHIT state these in which these consoles are launching. It's fuckin embarrassing...I feel like I'm in Chuckie Cheese

Name me a launch game from the past two generations that compares to Demon's Souls remake and I'll accept the idea PS5 is launching in a shit state.

It is the spiderman no you meme, played out over and over again, with both spidermens occupied while the evil Sony and Microsoft rob all the banks in the city

Infamous Second Son

I mean what are you on about? In graphics, in gameplay, in remakability, what?

The xbone had a shit launch and it was still better than the launches we're getting from both Sony and MS

The best bit about next gen launch is Game pass and PSN+ collection, where i can play current gen games.

That says everything IMO

That came out in March. If we're going up to March aren't we being reckless calling this a bad launch? Also you actually believe Demon's Souls remake won't be better than Second Son?

Your opinion doesn't say anything to me, nevermind everything.

I thought I:SS came out at launch, my bad. My memory isn't that good tbh.

I don't even know what the PS4 launch games were then 🤷‍♂️ What i do know is they weren't remakes or lots of cross-gen (aside cod, battlefield etc)

Don't get me wrong, i'm going to love hating DS, just like i loved hating Bloodborne and Dark Souls (They're like the S&M of video games)

It looks good, but it does have a bit of jank to it. Suppose that is part of the charm and keeping to the original?

Eh it's not really much different to any other gen. Most launch games are always cross gen. Devs just don't have enough time or money to make next gen exclusives for the first year or 2.

Are people forgetting the pathetic PS4 launch year of first party games?
 
Small hard core fan base see bloodborne sales of 2 million on a console base of 100 plus million.

How much of that is it going free on PS+? Tell you what, Destruction All-Stars sells more copies than Demon's Souls I'll change my avatar to fucking Destruction All-Stars avatar.

PS4's launch line-up wasn't very well praised so I'm not sure your point is all that good. Personally I thought Killzone Shadow Fall was great but not many people share that feeling. Nobody cares for Knack. I certainly don't care for the anti-remake attitude, these are video games, not movies.

I mean, it looks less janky than any other Souls game to me, but I'm a fan.

Yeah I never played knack. Battlefield 4 and kill one were great. I think I even played a TR. Thinking about it though, you are right, the launch of last gen wasn't stellar and it took 6 or so months for it to get there.

I think this will be the first gen since I was a bairn where I may not be getting these consoles day 1.

Im tempted by the PlayStation plus collection though. I've missed out on PS exclusives the last three years so...

I might wait and see. There's life in my old X yet.

Three years of great exclusives is pretty sweet to be sure. To me every generation getting a console at launch is an investment that takes a bit to pay off, having that collection for PS+ really eases that problem.

It does. Especially because its free.

Gamepass is the best thing to happen to gaming in a while and I'm glad to see Sony offering some thing similar.

Jesus Christ this really says it all in one word.

Remake of a game in a genre that has been beaten to death in the last 2 gens.

Demon's Souls was special when it came out because it was the only one, even if it was jank as fuck. Now that the formula has been redone and perfected it loses that charm, if Bluepoint makes any changes they offend the old fans, if they don't they offend the new.

Yet this PS3 remaster is the next gen harbinger for why next gen doesn't suck?

I don't share your point of view on this. Your argument is poor and I'm uninterested in further engaging you on it.
 
I try not to be a fanboy of things but I make an exception for Souls games. That remake looks HOT. I hope they add enough stuff to keep it interesting after I get used to the graphics.
 
It's amazing that a remaster of a 2 generation old game now is being touted as an incredible launch title that is better than everything else lol.

Damage control through the roof.
 
you gave an opinion, not a truth
Truth

It's a PS3 remake, that you are heralding as the reason to own the PS5.

There is no opinion there.

The fact that you claim the best next gen game is a game I already own on a system I no longer have hooked up to my tv is pathetic, and yes that's an opinion.

That's not damage control, we're incredibly excited for this game. We've been hoping it'd be a launch game for over 100 pages of the next-gen thread, it's been a constant topic of discussion. Stop trolling.

The fact that you care so much what I'm excited about is pathetic. If you're not excited for the game I don't really care, I certainly wasn't trolling people last gen for being excited for MCC.

You sure about that?

I remember some discussions.

Also MCC wasn't a launch game, it came a healthy way into the gen (just saying)

What do you remember? I've talked about MCC in the Meta thread, when I was playing it with a friend. I was pretty positive on it, I also uploaded most of our play throughs to Youtube, you can hear my positive thoughts on the games if you want? Not sure what you're trying to say here.

Forget it, this isn't worth my time.

Enjoy your 579.00 remake.

Ah, assuming I'll get the disc version even! Interesting. You sound sore? How are you going to enjoy your 569 AA indie walking simulators at launch? LOL.

Here, btw, I don't sound like someone who doesn't enjoy the game, do I?


We did this once before and I'm not rehashing it.
 
Why would it be embarrassing? You were slinging mud at the MCC and it made you sign in and play it. You went from last played in 2013 to played recently and enjoyed the hell out of it.

How is that an embarrassment? You got to play a game you liked that you were slinging shit about before that incentive.

Sounds like a win win.

Literally said months ago Sony wasn't leaving 120 million consoles off the table in sales for games for the first few years before their initial reveal, after that I thought okay maybe I was wrong. No Sony just being sly dogs making everyone in here look the fool.

Was always going to be the outcome.
