Eh it literally won nearly every digital foundry face off. Which is what you were talking about. You changed the goal posts to sales. Did you play any Bethesda games on PS3? Because they ran like shit. Orange Box was ported from another company and ran like shit because Gabe didn’t want anything to do with the PS3 at the time.

I need to go back on digital foundry and majority of the games performance was better on the 360. GTA V was the biggest title that played better on the PS3 and that came out when both consoles were dying. So yeah you are talking out your arse again and probably change the goalposts again. And the PS3 was jailbroken last time I checked.

Here I will pick a few out for you as you probably too lazy.

Assasins creed



NBA 08


Skate



Splinter Cell Double agent



Sonic



Bayonetta



Mass Effect 3



Red Dead Redemption

It's interesting that with all that, later to the party, more expensive, etc... That it still finished last though. (XBox360 was my lead console for the first half of that gen and outside of kinect it was pretty much collecting dust for the final 2 years)

Ok... So it won't be like PS360? Happy now? My (and the codemasters dev) point, that there won't be any major differences stands...


I'm sure once digital foundry confirms it you'll accept it right?

Codemasters dev was talking about optimisation not performance, resolution etc. He also isn’t going to come out and say Series X runs better or PS5 runs better.

It’s also a cross gen game. We will see if there’s any real difference when next gen multi format only games come out like Resident Evil next year. The issue is there’s so few next gen only games coming out, so won’t matter in the first few years.

And yes I am looking forward to the digital foundry face offs.

Don't optimisation and performance go hand in hand? Don't understand the distinction you're trying to make here.... Anyway, time will tell. XBox has no next gen exclusive gameplay footage to blow us away so here we are...

games were great on 360 when the console didn’t break (54% failure rate lol)

I made a nice bit of money fixing and modding them... I'm not mad at all.

Games are going to have minimal differences between the next gen lead consoles, accept it. It's a smaller gap between them than last gen. It'll be like PS360 gen. Some small differences in one platform from time to time...... Everyone should be happy. But of course the Xbox guys aren't, they can't say it'll all look better on XBox anymore it seems....

Doesn't help that they have no games to fall back on either.

Has anyone in here even spent much time talking up the power difference?

PS360 a weird gen to refer to though as there was a huge difference with loads of games.

If you are now pivoting to 'power differential doesn't matter' I agree with you... But most of you XBox guys always go on about how it's the worlds most powerful console and how we'll end up seeing the power difference in games... at some point... in some way...

But not you though it seems, fair enough....

feck knows about the rest of them. I know I've not really spoken about it though.

Even last gen it was pretty negligible in output but didn't stop people here acting like the PS4 was miles ahead. A lot more time was spent on the subject last gen than this gen.

I wasn't. I'm just saying, it's hardly been the focus of the debate here.

Game pass has been the key.

With power, backwards compatibility, form factor, pro consumer features, studio acquisitions and so on supporting only.

The only embarrassing claims in this thread are the ones suggesting a console is overheating

Tbf if Xbox didn’t have backwards compatibility there’d be nothing to play so it’s easy to see why they prioritised it more than Sony.

Good to see you are making the most of these claims whilst you can

You'll have nothing left to say soon

See this is what happens when you @VeevaVee and @Bojan11 have no next gen exclusive games to talk about.... You're all a bit touchy.

Ok I think I'm done for now. Same time same place next week?

There would be very little to play on PS5 considering most the games are cross gen you pillock.

The PS5 games you are hyping up is a remake and one that will be out on PS4. You haven’t even played the original spiderman kiddo. Where have you been? Gears 5 is getting new story DLC and impressive upgrades, do we count that as a new game now? What you think @Alock1?

Sure. Truth hurts.

You been hyping up a remake and a game that will be out on the PS4. That’s your so called next gen games. The reality is majority of the people who buy these consoles will be playing multi format games including you and Afro. Demon’s Souls isn’t for everybody. Spiderman is on PS4.

You will be sat on apex and I hope Xbox people join your lobby to destroy you.

Didn't you once claim Uncharted was just COD with puzzles?
Click to expand...

Obviously tongue in cheek but yes. It's a linear campaign where you move from set piece to set piece and kill everybody who comes across you with ease as the game has terrible AI. I compared it to Gears in that it is a high quality game but not exactly inspiring or innovative.

I've also said how they are guaranteed high quality games and how U4 was my most anticipated game

I gave up halfway through though and the multiplayer was rubbish. I'd had high hopes after TLOU's multiplayer.

I’ve downloaded The Touryst to give it a go! Gamepass has worked great for me - I’m steering away from multiplayer games currently as I have a 4 month old kid that has taken priority :p

So pick up an play is great - finished Quantum Break and Deliver Us the Moon, both enjoyable games on gamepass. I’d definitely recommend Deliver Us the Moon anyway, QB is cool at first but kind of flattens out - still enjoyable though.

Not long then until I get my Series X and then onto Cyberpunk :drool:

Yeah my 4 year old takes up a fair bit of my spare time, but after she goes to bed I'm firing up New Super Lucky's Tale. Quite liked it the first time around and want to play through it again.

Maybe it's just me being an old fogey that remembers getting maybe two games a year for my SNES, but the value of GamePass is really really good. I've played games I wouldn't have that really impressed me. I don't need it to be filled with all the latest and biggest games, as if I'd have time to play Assassin's Creed games anyway (and it's not like they are that good anyway). The variety of games is part of the benefit. I'll never play a horror game or strategy game, but there's always decent platformer/puzzle/shooters on there that I can get into. I've never had nothing to play, or been stuck playing games I didn't enjoy for lack of anything else.

Xbox players have always been better than PlayStation at competitive games. So would expect nothing less.

Plus, no offense to Elvis but, you can just tell he's pretty crap at games

Afro too

Just a small upgrade according to @esmufc07.

Honestly the reason I bought an Xbox a couple of years ago was to play Gears because I loved the first one and hadn’t played any since but I couldn’t believe how terribly it had aged and how clunky the game played. So yeah I don’t really care if Gears 5 is 8k and 360fps.

You probably hate it because last time you played, some kid was tea-bagging you in it.

Somewhat agree to be honest. I'm really looking forward to Gears 5 multiplayer but I do think at this point it's outstayed it's welcome a bit.

Coalition are clearly a strong studio so I'd be keen to see what they could do with a new IP. Come back to Gears with some sort of reboot later perhaps.

ND needs to do the same with Uncharted.

Both clinging to the same gunplay, movement and mechanisms that were once great but now seem outdated.

They have literally no good points anymore. They’ve lost. It’s done.
 
I'm nothing special on MP games, don't have the time to practice and git gud. Actually I was really good at a VR game called Sparc, and the old Battlefield games too.

Great stuff

I'm hoping their next game isn't a reskin

Weren't they meant to be working on some Space game?

No idea. Looking like a new IP from them before probably releasing TLOUIII at the end of the gen.

Quite a few of their staff have been poached by Xbox studios though so who knows?
