In order for your theory to be true, there would've had to be a lot of people that bought the game.

In July it was announced that Returnal sold 560,000 copies. I wouldn't exactly call that a lot of hype purchasing.

Switch was supply constrained as well. Just because there is not a world wide shortage doesn't mean there cannot be supply constraints.

If you have a 1080p TV the Series S is the best option on the market. No need to buy a 4K device for $100 to $200 more if your TV is incapable of 4K.

If you have a 4K TV, then PS5 DE is the best low cost option.

@Magog
If you don't believe anything the hacks at IGN have to say, then maybe you should avoid commenting on their articles. That is by definition just trolling.

I like how GG uses color to make the environment more alive.

But, clearly the Matrix had a next level of detail we will only get when games ship solely on the new console generation.

It is just a bunch of salty fans that think that the only competition is between PS and XB. Switch has made a mark and is selling really well. PS fans like to only compare sales with XB because they know they are winning there. They conveniently remove Switch because they don't like what they see.

The Switch will be taking over a lot of consoles over the next year.

I think if you are interested it is worth the exercise. But, if you weren't interested to begin with, it probably won't do anything for you.

I was interested in Marvel Avengers and Godfall last year but bought neither. I played Marvel Avengers on XB gamepass and deleted it fairly quickly because it is garbage. I might try Godfall because although I suck at these kind of hack n slash games I enjoy them. If I keep playing it is another story though.

Every company's case is different. And it has to do with how willing management is to adapt and changes demanded by its workforce.

Unions don't solve problems, they simply tip the scales in a radical way. The good thing about unions is that workers unite under a negotiating umbrella, the bad thing about unions is that the uniting under an umbrella often gets corrupt as well then just like the book Animal Farm, in the end the pigs were no different then the humans ...

I have played about 10 missions/side missions now. Totally enjoy it. The grapple makes things a lot different. You can decide how you want to approach an area, and I usually take some sort of sniper rifle to soften the enemies then move in to do cleanup. Platforming to get to the location is fun and it is surprising that you can pretty much get anywhere in the game. Collecting is also fun. And the gameplay is silky smooth on XB.

Halo Infinite reminds me of Halo 3 Chap...

Hopefully not doable on these consoles. Thank you very much.

I will agree that Owners, CEOs, VP, and Managers are over paid.

I do agree that in certain companies people are not treated well.

I do agree that minimum wage does not live up to cost of living.

I do not agree that the solution is unionization. The best companies have everyone working together to make the company successful for itself, its customers, and its shareholders. Unions do nothing to help that. And in many ...

It does look amazing, but the Matrix looked awesome too.

This shows us the difference of targeting only current gen platforms vs also targeting last gen platforms.

After seeing this you can see what the difference between current gen and last gen will be.

You can see a distinct difference between games that ship on last gen consoles and only for current gen consoles. The environment is just way more realistic in current gen consoles.

I think what they were really saying is a lot of work went into the trailer. It is not stated whether there was a ton of crunch time.

And being someone who has worked in multiple union and non-union environments I can definitively say non-union is better when done right. All unions do is skim off your pay checks and don't really address the real concerns of their membership. They also create a "us" vs "them" attitude with management which is not a...

I played the first several missions yesterday and I do believe the game is really good, but, to have it win votes before release, well that is dumb.

I am still waiting for true current gen games in general.

Too many games are still shipping on previous consoles.

To be fair, Sony has not released a new first party title since June. And isn't schedule to release one until end of February.

Yes, XB is no better. Did not release a new first party title from launch until August. (Except Gear tactics and Flight Simulator which were only on PC so not really new).

I wouldn't call them scummy, they are just a company looking at every angle to save costs and make money.

What is bad is that too many gamers still support these tactics. We have to speak with our dollars. When they don't give good PSN Plus games, they only listen when people stop subscribing, when they release "Director Cut" versions of one year old games, gamers shouldn't buy them, and when their practices are not equal to the competition for thing...
