So you have to buy a card for £10 more than you need to get a game for £2 less than the rip off price with PlayStation, and @esmufc07 laps it up
Gaming PS5 vs Xbox Series S|X

Didn't actually play the PS4 ones, though I do think the new one looks like a lot of fun. More interested in HZD2 and God of War 2 though, incredible games.

I've not lapped anything up. I know buying new games is something Xbox owners don't do because there aren't any. Perhaps one day you'll understand.
I’ll be playing the new cod on my new Xbox for the foreseeable. Enjoy the kids game you’re pretending to be excited about
Don’t forget cross gen games. As that was what Elvis was banging on about for last 6 months.
They'll run better on PS5 because Series S will hold Series X back.
Nope. I will refer you to the above, what reliable Capcom insider Dusk said about Resident Village. It’s the PS5 that’s holding back Series X and PC for that matter. Typical.

Series X owners looking for new games on launch day
XBox owners (when not console warring) over the next ~7 years...
Why is there so much animosity/loyalty in this thread? You guys remind me of apple fanboys.
cause PS rules, fam
Sounds like something an Android guy would say.
I quite enjoy a bit of Xbox bashing. Plus I have genuine brand loyalty to PlayStation.
It helps that the games are so much better
They don’t seem to realise it’s them that cause it. I’ve only ever spoken about fahcts and responded to their lame behaviour.

Come on Veeva, you're as entrenched as the lot of us, you just happened to pick the wrong side.
So Xbox now has more next-gen only exclusives announced than PS5.. huh
There you go @VeevaVee
How long before I have to pay for last of us 2 again? I saved that specifically because it’s the perfect game to update for PS5. I won’t be happy paying for upgrades from console manufacturers and that goes for MS. All their games should be upgraded free and they should set example to the third party publisher.
Apparently Spiderman isn't just an upres like most games getting a PS5 patch, they have gone back and added a load of new character models etc and done a mini remaster.
But I've already completed it so not overly fussed to be honest. IL just play the new one

CD Project Red are going to give proper upgrades for the next gen consoles. If they can do that for free, so can Sony.
Nah I like both consoles, to be honest. I obviously think the Xbox is better for me because that's why I'm getting it.Come on Veeva, you're as entrenched as the lot of us, you just happened to pick the wrong side.
Look at my posts, apart those clearly trying to wind Elvis up, there's nothing there but logic and stone cold facts. On the other side is Elvis defending anything Sony do, and constantly saying Xbox has no launch games while pretending Rachet and Clank is the best thing that's ever happened, then admitting he's never played one before. Also multiple people making out the digital PS5 is good value and therefore a Series S killer, which isn't the case and I've simply proven it as much. I've only ever shut down the PS spiceboys.
Fair enough fella. Can't say I'm that level headed on the matter, only ever known Playstation.
Ratchet and Clank is good fun by the way....
I was always Playstation up until a load of my mates went Xbox. I was fine with that as the controller is nicer to use and the PS exclusives were even less interesting at the time. There was literally nothing else between them, apart from how highly Xbox Live was regarded at the time, but to me if you're playing online you're playing online.
Now there's a few PS exclusives that interest me but they're not enough to pull me away from the Xbox package. I might get one if prices come down eventually but dunno. Most of the best games for me are third party anyway so it may not ever feel worth it.
Nice guy Xbox
Yeh that’s fair enough. I get the impression you are probably a bigger online gamer than myself to be honest (nothing wrong with that) but I just love a good single player experience above anything else and some of the recent first party games on PlayStation have been exceptional and really push the boat out both technically and from a gameplay perspective. I don’t think Xbox ever really catered to my market and I have always felt (especially in the 360 era) that Xbox was the place for online gaming especially with the halo scene, COD probably being bigger, party chat etc.
It does appear that Xbox is trying to rectify that slightly now with the purchase of developers such as Obsidian who make games that are much more appealing to me. If they deliver on that I’d be very tempted by the S.
I’m not sure why it’s a big thing tbh, I’ve had every Xbox since launch bar this gen, for single player games and exclusives I feel that PS is better, plus my friends all have PS.
Whatever you enjoy is down to you, definitely feel the game pass from Xbox is fantastic, might build a PC in the near future or even get an Xbox as well.

Why?!
Why not? they make fantastic games you can't play anywhere else.
This brand loyalty nonsense is so weird. Couldn't give a toss really and usually just buy whatever I'm feeling at the time.
I enjoyed the original Xbox and the 360 with their exclusives (Gears, Forza, Halo) then grabbed the PS4 when I got a crazy deal on it and was happy to enjoy Spiderman, God of War, The Last of Us and Zero Dawn. Looks like PS edges the exclusives battle in the next gen so far imo.
It's weird as well because I told a mate I'd pre-ordered the PS5 yesterday and he sent me a shit meme about Sony fanboys clearly from a MS fanboy about how the new Xbox beats it in every way. It's very odd. He does know I could just buy both if I wanted?

I like single player games too. Red dead, GTA, The Witcher, Skyrim and the like are plenty to keep me going. Looking forward to Cyberpunk and whenever the new Skate comes out, which has the opportunity to blend single player and online really well, so hopefully they don’t squander that.
I used to be a big PlayStation fan during the PS1 and PS2 era, but after PS2 the magic just wasn't there anymore, not even close. Also the PS toxic fanbase doesn't help the case. I would never trade the PC gaming for any of the consoles now though. I just love all the game tinkering, modding freedom, price freedom etc.
Agree. @Mr Pigeon and @esmufc07 the way they treated you was ridiculous over your opinions on the last of us 2.
You are welcome any time in Xbox threads. Nobody will attack you, I will make sure of it as I look after all the xboxers.
Fair enough. Personally I never enjoyed a generation as much as PS4, the games were simply stellar.
I also have a gaming PC, which I enjoy. Though i'm not sure the PC community is a shining example of non-toxicity.
Imagine letting people’s opinions on the internet affect your decision to buy a console.
Oh yeah, I was mostly comparing console fanbases there.
Imagine missing the whole point of a post.
Yawn. At this point you're like a dodgy jukebox, except you're stuck playing Puttin On The Ritz by Taco instead of anything remotely decent.
See, what I mean @evil_geko.
I run a tight ship on Xbox. None of this riff-raff around to bother you. If you wanna call master chief a dick you can. Nobody will attack you for your opinion. If you want to say Marcus Fenix is promoting some hidden agenda, again you can as it’s your opinion and we at Xbox value it.
Well I think I've figured out how the Xbox naming convention works now.
Now that is yawn and cringe.
Ah okay interesting, why don’t you fancy some of the Sony first party. Sounds like Horizon, GOW,, Ghost of Tsushima would be enjoyable for you?
Edit: the only reason I bring up the online thing really Veeve is just because my friends who still play Xbox were really won over by the online gaming service in the 360 era and never really left.
