First I will say that there have been NO rumors of a new Sega Console. This is simply a "What If" scenario meant to insite both nostalgia and conversation. Food for thought if you will.

There are different games. Some have gamplay at it highest priority, some have the story, some have the replay value and choices... There are a lot of different game experiences.
It is laughable that just now graphics does not have anything to do with that experiene. We have had many games of that type over time. This is just the one that have come closest to feel like playing an actual movie. Just look the the Digital foundry walkthrough it is a masterpiece in that perspective and hence wrth trying. But yes do not do it for the gameplay - but that was never the goal of this experience.
It's because it's on Xbox. When Xbox has amazing graphics, they don't matter. When PlayStation does, it's a game changer!
Pretty much my thoughts. They were technical marvel's on PS and still are. The moment Xbox puts out a graphically intense game is doesn't matter suddenly.
4 years ago this month would the UE5 tech demo debut with the girl flying (tech demo said it was only possible on PS5 because of the SSD. Glad to finally see it in its glory.
FFS, gaming journalism has really gone downhill. At least hire people with a basic grasp of grammar... "Me neither" means the exact opposite of what the "author" is trying to say. That's like saying "I could care less"... lol.
Maybe because the gameplay being dull allowed it to have the amazing graphics and people are not as impressed by graphics alone anymore? I mean there is a lot of sites saying the story and the gameplay are lackluster. So what are we supposed to enjoy then? Cgi graphics are beautiful but since they arent interactive, they dont impress me as much as they used to. Thats an extreme example, but you get my drift.
When Playstation (Sony) does it..its usually a great game and not a cinematic experience..or at least something new at the time..like Until Dawn back in 2015.
@gamer:” It's because it's on Xbox. When Xbox has amazing graphics, they don't matter. When PlayStation does, it's a game changer!”
The game looks as good as any other PlayStation game in my eyes why can’t you and the other hardcore Xbox be happy about it and drag PlayStation into every conversation and force PlayStation hardcore to look into the game and find flaw that most games have in one way or another.
@light: “ 4 years ago this month would the UE5 tech demo debut with the girl flying (tech demo said it was only possible on PS5 because of the SSD. ”
Yes at that time it was only possible on PlayStation SSD how ignorant of you to think that after 4 years the technology wouldn’t evolved and move to a industry standard 🤦🏿I wish your mentality wasn’t so naive and narrow to post stuff like that 😩 in a year or 2 a new game will come out that might look better, it’s the nature of the industry.
Now that the distraction is gone I feel that is a good thing that the graphics in games are starting to hit the rooftop and hopefully the developers will put more thoughts into story and gameplay mechanics than just the next shiny oily skin of old.
So true. Not surprised by all the negativity. It's a really good game and looks better than any game I've ever seen. GOTY nominee for sure. Like I said before, sony screwed up big time by not purchasing Ninja Theory.
We've had graphical gamechangers before, such as Crysis but those games still had gameplay to compliment it. Hellblade pretty much has none, and only achieved such graphics through being incredibly linear and having very small, closed off environments where very little is happening.

I agree and I actually think Forbidden West looks better than Hellblade 2. I easily prefer looking at it at least.
Indie games are single-handedly carrying the gaming industry right now and it's about time they get their deserved recognition.
MSI is proud to announce that its gaming handheld, Claw, has achieved a significant performance increase of up to 30% through a new BIOS and MSI Center M update. Furthermore, the new BIOS and MSI Center M enable Claw to smoothly play all of the top 100 po
is this the one with the switch2 chip inside.?
this is Intels first try at the format
probs not though, as it's $799. so not good for switch actually
Well thats nice considering Ive heard it consistently performs worse when it really shouldn't.
Now if only Lenovo would do the same for the legion go
they shouldn't, EA won't develop 4 a SEGA console and that's enough reason 2 label it as a failure.
Please don't Sega. Please. I'm still choking on the bad taste that the Dreamcast left me back in 1999. The absolute worst controller I've ever had the displeasure of playing with. EVER!
I think Sega needs to sell their good IP to Nintendo or merge with them and be done with it. It's the smart move.
i wish they would get back in the hardware market. it probably wouldn't be practical at this point but i still play my dreamcast on a regular basis and enjoy it more than any console i have ever played or owned. Thats includes this gen as well.
I loved the dreamcast so yes sega do it. Sega has lost there spunk since the dreamcast went under and i think MS had something to do with it being they were makeing parts of the dreamcast but hey i'm just saying IMO....
They need to do something. They have been under performing for quite some time. They need to make a good Phantasy Star and do away with the monthly fees. Just make extra cash on new content. Oh, and don't do what you did with the last attemp. The lobby was like playing half life. I would take for ever trying to get into a map to explore. Keep the lobby simple with the shops and aids. Do away with those huge areas to run around and have people ask dumb questions. Do something Sega or go home!
