I mean... there is not really that many worthwhile games they can port now.
between the usual suspects I would say Starfield could generate the most drama.
Halo is dead and Gears is stagnant (coming to PS5 would feel like a second wind)
Forza H and Flight Sim (are the only quality games Xbox has left)

It's not as doom and gloom Sausage boy. Outside of Astrobot, Sony also has tumbleweeds.
You’re insinuating that the entire Xbox first party setup will cease making games this year?
Stack that right next to your ‘Gamepass dies in 2024’ prediction.

Tom Henderson is being ported in the second wave as well?

Think some people struggle with reading.
I agree there is absolutely nothing ms currently have available that would make me buy something.
If I didn't already own it for pc I'd dabble with fh5. Nothing else gets tye juices flowing currently.

Not really sure what I’d want of theirs beyond Halo and Gears. But Starfield and Hellblade I’d consider.
Actually, I’d be down for Sunset Overdrive.

Starfield, Gears and Forza Horizon. This is where the fun begins.

There are plenty of worthwhile games to port...
Halo MCC, Halo Infinite, Halo Wars 1/2, Gears of War Ultimate, Gears 4/5, Forza Horizon 5 (I would love 3/4 which are both much better games, but they aren't going to renew all those licenses on games they've already removed or will remove from their own marketplace just to get PS sales), Killer Instinct, MSFS, Starfield (hated more then it probably needs to be), and Hellblade 2. Plus you could easily get a Gears Collection going which would sell a ton across all platforms.
People like to pretend that Xbox One and the Series consoles have absolutely no worthwhile games but it's false. Sure, there aren't any TLOU2, God of War, or Ghost but it doesn't mean they didn't release games that would be worthwhile to port.
I would be day 1 full price on MCC and a Gears Collection and I'm sure millions of others would be as well.

I don't think the PS5 can handle Flight Sim
EDIT.....Apparently it wasn't apparent , so I guess I should have added /s

I can see Starfield and Forza Horizon selling decently well on PS5. Flight Sim is an amazing game but it is somewhat niche so sales to the audience will be there, as long as expectations are in check.

I’d love if they just confirmed the next elder scrolls game…

*Counts how many times you listed Halo and Gears individually in your list to make it seem more substantial rather than listing them as one series…*
So the only games they have worthwhile to port are Halo, Gears, Forza, and Starfield.
I love how completely abandoned games like Killer Instinct always get brought up in these laughable lists. Might as well add Rise Son of Rome, ReCore, and Sunset Overdrive to really pad out that list of delusion.

Starfield is definitely being ported to the PS5. Game of the generation, I have over 200+ hours clocked on Steam.

There's no platform mentioned in the trailer at all, it was before Zenimax even got acquired.
They didn't want to put platforms on it cause they don't know if it's even coming this generation lol.

I thought they said only 4 games ... lol
They are slowly turning the curtains down on the Xbox console and going third party.

But we also learned thru trial leaks that Spencer was hemming and hawing over Elder Scrolls 6 being exclusive. This is from 2023:Xbox's CFO said when they acquired Bethesda that their plans for them wasn't to keep their games console exclusive, but instead "first, better or best on their platforms". Meaning, to keep all future Bethesda games multiplatform either day one or after a timed console exclusive.
Xbox boss Phil Spencer addresses potential Elder Scrolls 6 exclusivity | VGC
“We look at it on a case-by-case basis with the games that we build”…
www.videogameschronicle.com
"In a November 2021 interview, Spencer appeared to suggest Elder Scrolls 6 wouldn’t be available on PlayStation, when he said adopting an exclusivity strategy “is not about punishing any other platform”.
However, giving evidence in July as part of Microsoft’s legal battle with the FTC, Spencer was vague about whether he had previously made a public statement saying the game would be Xbox-only.
“[With Elder Scrolls 6], it’s so far out it’s hard to understand what the platforms will even be… We’re talking about a game that’s five-plus years away,” he said (via Axios’ Stephen Totilo).”

Starfield Was Planned For PS5 Prior To Microsoft's ZeniMax Acquisition, FTC Says
Bethesda's sci-fi RPG would have come to PlayStation if not for Microsoft's acquisition of ZeniMax in 2021, according to the FTC.
www.gamespot.com
Microsoft canceled PS5 versions of Redfall and Starfield immediately after the Zenimax acquisition. Anyone who takes these companies at their word is naive.

That would make it 8 then because it would make me insta-buy a PS5 and PSVR2.
(Before anyone asks how I played GT7VR there is a guy charging $3 per race at my nearby mall)

Sony own the Sunset Overdrive IP, they could release a Sunset Overdrive Maximum Edition and it would be fine.
