Because if you already have a large digital library of PS4 titles and this plays PS4 games you don't need much more than the system. It's also rumoured to play some ps5 games.
If you buy a steam deck you have to re buy your library.
Pretty much Xbox wrote a cheque that Microsoft can't cash.
Inflated metrics egos and a belief that they could get the casual gamer playing hardcore titles via cloud on mobiles really lead them to belive they were in a better position than the reality.
I don't believe gamepass was ever that strong with many gamers likely signing up multiple fake emails for the dollar trials over and over boosting that count along with Xbox live gold hacks and other methods...
Ooof yeah cod can be day 1 if you bend over a little more
I never understood being comfortable paying for micro transactions when you don't actually own the game it's like paying for an expansion pack but renting the base game every other week from blockbuster back in the day.
I guess starfield proved people are more.than happy to however given the DLC expansion sold Reall well as it came with a early access promotion
Given Microsoft's new strategy of early access packs for GP games I bet they will c...
Until cod gets onto gamepass day 1 it's really just theory that it will hurt the overall sales I guess we will find out.
Halo isn't even off limits the Xbox is pretty much on life support for the next few years who know next gen might just be a Microsoft branded steam machine
I tend to agree I don't think any of those are good games they are gaming junk food predictable and formulaic in their own ways.
Yeah this game is going to have a huge battle pass and lootbox push according to all leaks so they will probably sell it cheap and bombard you with in game purchases.
Aka far cry new dawn
No direct X is integral to windows graphics processing it let's the application to the drivers in simple terms has been for decades and will be ongoing. Dx powers even the most basic integrated graphics workloads on windows to advanced games.
It's here to stay
Name someone that isn't trying to look us these days maybe cdpr.
Take two, ubi and yes even PlayStation are pushing us to own nothing and be happy with our live service ad injected games on a sub so they can raise prices at will and take access away when they see fit.
If it keeps up I'll be a full time retro gamer and this industry will be crashing hard
As rediculas as it sounds we need government reforms to defend consumer rig...
Microsoft did a similar thing with starfield could be the new ongoing policy no early reviews.
I don't want to jump the gun and say the game is bad or problematic or anything.
But yeah we've all seen this tactic before.
I guess it's worth remembering in the eyes of ninja theory this is a small game it's not going to take 10 plus hours to finish from what they've indicated.
Direct quote from ign <...
Credit to you I couldn't stomach any more forced tutorials and menus 4 hours in.
I hit another guided tutorial after 4 hours playing Its simply bad game design
Keeping the Bethesda tradition alive.
They really need to get it together it's no longer charming or endearing to still ship games like this it's lazy.
Now we know sometimes things happen but if cdpr can turn cyberpunk into a highly rated game then Bethesda can also do the same but there seems to be a Hey the community will do it for us
Does it matter they are basically third party at this point if your a Nintendo fan do you turn a game off because it was developed by Sega.
Also so many games are using Azure backend and display it in on their fine print so you'll not play any game using that to
If the Jez rumour is true Microsoft has placed no red line around any first party game going to PS.
Although Jez has been acting like a spoilt brat not getting his way lately seems he's grown disenfranchised with Microsoft and is kind of lost given its most of his identity so I don't trust everything he says atm.
But basically if we see a halo game come to PS I'd call that a death kneel to the brand
It's a fine line to walk there's preservation and there's piracy.
One helps us play games that companies abandoned the other got us into this mess in the first place
Same as their upcoming star wars outlaws clearly they are not listening to the so killing games movement.
This is another title that can be shut down in a few years
"Hey Mum can we get ghost of Tsushima."
"No we have ghost of Tsushima at home"
PS plus doesn't do day 1 releases and cut into sales or change the mentality of gamers to simply wait for it to be free on a subscription
Quite possibly I can't think of anything else that came out this year with a high level of Fidelio like this
