Following the PS4 Pro reveal, Microsoft is more confident than ever that Scorpio will set a new bar for consoles.
Another leaker has claimed that a PSP/PS Vita style PlayStation handheld is in the works, and it'll supposedly support PS4 games.
If you had every PS1, PS2, PS3, PSP and PSV game then sure but I mean if it's just the PS4 why not just get a Steam Deck?
I still play my vita. The oled screen was too good for it's time. I obviously had to home brew it but playing my old snes/ps1 games on it is so good.
Rumour has it that Microsoft has a new Xbox in the works, and its launch will coincide with Infinity Ward's next COD game.
So that’ll be £1000 with a zen 5 cpu and god know what graphics card
Good one
Also now they have promised cod on nintendos systems, the switch 2 might become VERY popular as a cod console with the kids, tethering it to their 5g phones, or the schools WiFi hehehe
Don't believe it. The documents from the FTC case say 2028 and that holds more weight than this.
This is another thing MS is doing that I don't like. Like chill, foster your teams and try to make the beginning of some good series on the already powerful series x. They are trying to rush this gen. It's coming up on four years. So this gens life will be 5 years and on the 6th the next gen will be released? Stupid. Makes no sense especially seeing how long everyone has supported the Ps4 and Xbox 1. Annoying.
So, Microsoft has sold less consoles than the previous gen the past two generations with this most recent generation falling off the most. And in this current generation the most popular console by far is the least expensive one. But they are going to try to push out another console that is supposedly powerful not the thing that actually worked for them a cheap game pass console...
And they are going to come out with this thing when the PS5 Pro will be on the market so it's unlikely that they will be able to make any significant power gains. Certainly not to the point that PlayStation 5 won't be able to play the games. Heck we see how long the PS4 has stayed relevant, PS4 games will still be getting released in 2026. And given their console sales track record no publisher under the sun is going to skip PlayStation to make games for xbox. And with the way Microsoft is positioning themselves as such a rival publisher I can't imagine many publishers really looking to prop xbox up. Heck we hear rumors of publishers skipping xbox for releases.
If this is actually true, this thing is DOA.
Polish headquarters of Sony Interactive Entertainment were raided by government authorities as part of an investigation into their anti-competitive practices.
My next console. A true upgrade. I really can't wait to play in native 4k. I'm so let down by the ps4pro such a disappointment.
“I think customers’ expectations are changing. I think that console generations are really, really exciting for people, but super disruptive to developers and to customers. And this idea that we’re thinking beyond console generations doesn’t mean that we’re not going to have exciting, new, more powerful hardware.”
“But we look for a continuity of players and content and accessories that’s kind of unprecedented, and I think Scorpio is our first foray into that,” he continued. “I think you’re going to go through a period in the industry where people just have to get used to change, because this is a new idea. But I like our vision of forward compatibility, I like our vision beyond console generations. I’m very confident that we’re going to deliver customers a great experience on Scorpio and that co-existence of the Xbox One and S and Scorpio at the same time is going to be a really great thing. I’m really excited about it.”
Interesting....I can't wait for the reveal of Scorpio. Phil and the Xbox team need to play their cards right. I would like to know the AMD tech powering Scorpio and the VR Hardware it will support at launch. Hopefully we'll get some info later this year or early next year.
Also MS just confirmed again to polygon that Scorpio will indeed launch with a 4k bluray player. Nice. Especially since I plan to buy a 4k TV next year.
Time for 3rd parties to jump back in! Scorpio will be the lead platform once it's released so momentum should shift back in MS favor.
With no exclusives
keyword "WILL." PS4 Pro will have one year with the market to itself...
