We've talked elsewhere in our Google Stadia coverage about the fact that it's not a console, it's what Google calls a 'cloud native' system that leverages tight integration of gaming components in the datacentre to provide - in theory, at least - a system capable of delivering genuinely different gaming experiences, while providing a generational leap in processing power over today's consoles. That said, we should expect to see ports of multi-platform games and Google itself has already demonstrated one of them - Assassin's Creed Odyssey, delivered to the US public at the tail-end of last year for extensive beta testing. We had the chance to go hands on with the game again, running on the latest version of the streamer, and with access to Google's own controller hardware.
This looks fun and affordable for fans of Retro Cabinet games.
Introducing Evercade Alpha, the first Evercade-compatible arcade machine. This bartop-sized arcade gives you everything you want in a home arcade machine with one big feature - full compatibility with the Evercade cartridge ecosystem.
I like the Mega Man one more as it has a better variety of games. Strider, Carrier Airwing, Final fight... The other is all SF. Plus i like that i can pop in any of my evercade carts to play as well.
During Sony’s recent business segment meeting and investor presentation regarding its game and network services, the PlayStation company revealed that PlayStation 5 is the company’s “most profitable generation to-date.”
It’s the top slide of the presentation, showing that in its first four years, the PS5 generation has already hit $106 billion in sales, having almost caught up to the PS4’s total $107 billion generated.
Operating income for the PS5 generation has also already surpassed that of the PS4, having now reached $10 billion.
I wouldn't doubt it. They released a high quality system. A lot of high quality games from themselves and their support of 3rd party developers and indies. They released many high quality remakes and remasters. They released a high quality GaaS game going against the naysayers thinking Sony would abandon single player games. And they most likely are profiting a lot more than PS1, PS2 PS4 and the loss leading PS3 that drained all their profits.
Now, I'll wait to see what's cooking tomorrow. But can you use some of those profits to better support your high quality VR headset? Because, by supporting it, you can sell more games and more systems and make more profits?
This will surely shut up all the new trolling accounts trying to spread lies and non facts in other articles comment sections before this article is posted.
Wow! I am super impressed that in just 4 years, ps5 already caught up to the PS4's. Congratulations.
This sounds like a very interesting mobile gaming PC. ZOTAC returns to COMPUTEX 2024 to showcase its biggest push yet into brand-new product categories from Handheld Gaming.
Interesting to look at the lag measured for Google's 1080p/30 demo (about 160ms) compared to the lag measured by DF on PS Now a few years ago ( https://www.eurogamer.net/a...
Pretty comparable, even though PSNow was measured on a slower ADSL line...
This is just a rehash of Digital Foundries YouTube content, nothing new to read here honestly.
Google’s claim of native 4K 60fps is a joke. 1080p and will drop down 720p when your connection lags. Didn’t realize we were calling 720p next gen
Lag just like XCloud's first demo oof this is going to hurt
There is no magic in the world that will automatically make everyone that already are playing consoles in the wide world be able to get fast/stable enough internet for 4k gaming.
So companies like Google and MS should really stop trying to fool people in thinking that streaming is the immediate future for gaming. The media also needs to stop and be honest with people they are reporting these info to.
Its like the whole power of the cloud thing again with extra power sauce crap.
Gaming is not like movies or music that does not require input from participants most of the time. Its not just the bandwidth but distance from datacenters for lag that gaming has to deal with which is more critical
I am all for it as an option but people really need to honest with streaming. It will take a fundamental change in our existing global internet infrastructure for streaming to able to replace traditional console gaming globally.
Sony's approach to PSNow is the best. They make sure that traditional gaming is still the primary focus as thats what a responsible global brand should do that caters to gaming audience globally. Not lie to people
