They need to team up ms to split the cost after the next gen, like Subaru and Toyota with the brz and frs. Or just make one together?
It's eventually going to be like movie players. Different makers (MS/Sony) but all play the same stuff.
Nintendo still off doing its own thing and kicking everyone's arse.
Nintendo still off doing its own thing and kicking everyone's arse.
Mostly because Nintendo sticks to its guns with game budgets and graphics. They are very much a gameplay first company, everything else second. It would surprise me if their development budgets are a 3rd of the other console makers games.
Yep. Time for the others to start toning it down. Not every game needs massive budgets or to try and look realistic.
Would be fine with little to no graphical leap next gen and just focus on performance.
Maybe, but we don’t know what prerequisites to “more games” is, s as that’s a rather broad statement… the variables or outcomes may already be predetermined. This is just a test, but is it a single one or many.
If it succeeds, does this mean more sea of thieves for the foreseeable future instead of a proper sequel? Or would it allow them to release a sequel but continue this new status quo and keep it exclusive to Xbox and pc and then years later released on other platforms (primarily for optimization purposes)?
Or could it allow another GAAS game to be released on said platforms, which I don’t think they have many others, we don’t know.
or does this mean they continue with the drip feed of old specific cult classics to be released elsewhere, if it makes sense with fans, resources and investment (basically ROI)?
The ones that would suffer the most from 30fps would be those that require extensive parry, dodge mechanics plus fps shooters otherwise for narrative story games it's fine
I’ve only touched gta vice city briefly, maybe less than a handful of hours.
But wouldn’t it affect its mp component?
Agreed. And if Sonys GaaS games that are going to Xbox do well I fully expect they will go in on SP games on Xbox as well.
Good thing we have the Pro coming
If it does release this Holiday, I fully expect Sony to get 60 fps mode and promote the crap out of that.
I think it will be officially announced a couple months before release like the PS4 pro. So if November 2024 then possibly September we will see the press release.
I don't know how many of you guys have played Sea of Thieves but with a group of friends, the game is pretty fun. Was fun at launch if a bit bare-bones. NOW with all the updates its spectacular. Glad the game is getting it flowers and people seeing that Rare is still very talented.
A friend, the waifu and I played for a couple hours, couldn't interest us enough to keep going but more power to those who like the game. I'm sure many find it enjoyable.
Even with the Switch’s power, to be honest all their first party games I have played still look good and run fine to me.
Having a game working well & good at release, and game getting better after release are not mutually exclusive.
I m not one of these live service hater, considering 2 of my favorite ga,es are live servce (Fortnite & Diablo 4).
My point is simply, a game shoud be good at release, if not make it early acess, so people know they are beta testers. Reviewers do not have a obligation to review a game months or years after post release.
Also, if a game is live service, release day review are not helpful.
Game improve over time is a good things, especially for live service. Hvaing a game not good at lanuch and hoping to fix over time is more often than not a bad idea.
Look at Anthem, Avengers etc.
