I'm gonna burgle your house. Have one in time for Christmas.

You come down and see if you can get past the security gates first.

All that thread whining and someone on HUKD managed to preorder from GAME about 10 minutes ago.
 
Wish I had money + a time machine so I could zoom 2 years into the future when both consoles will have a shitload of amazing games to play.
 


Two next gen consoles, only one next gen controller.


I'm bored of the fanboy shite now :lol: was funny for about a week.

Now it's just a yawnfest.

Just give us actual news and gameplay footage and stuff.

All you going through 20 videos to find one bad video about something to do with the console you're not in love with.

So I guess we'll be seeing much less of you in this thread then.

I didnt have to go through 20 videos to see this though, I'm one of 12.7 million people that think this guy has a valid opinion when It comes to technology and no need to get so defensive, I didn't recall him saying anything bad about the console I'm not in love with in the video. ;)

Too easy Armand. Way too easy.

You just need to go back a page. That’s going to be my default reply to Afro and Elvis from now on. It’s pretty good.

Well the trick to fully enjoying this thread is to always be in jest mode. It's the people who really do buy into, or get annoyed by fanboying I feel bad for.

Though if this controller is as good as they say it is, will going back to one without this extra level of immersion make it feel worse than you always remembered it to be.

Do you play with sound from a tv or wear a headset?

the idea of immersion is grand and all, but many people these days utilize headsets for the surround sound feel and obtaining directional sounds.

controller sounds cool and all - but it won’t be absolutely huge because of the way gamers play. Especially with those who also turn vibration off for multiplayer shooters.

the mic in the controller is cool though, gives flexibility of what headset you want to go with.
 
I can't understand people who truth vibrations off. But it's true a lot of people do it to get an advantage
 
So I haven’t pre-ordered either yet. Without starting a war of words... which definitively has the better graphics?

Ive been Xbox for a good while as I prefer the controller but the new PS5 controller looks more similar ergonomically to the standard Xbox controller so I could make the switch back.

Xbox Series X is the most powerful both in CPU and GPU

It may be held back by the series S though for first party games.

PS5 is not far behind though. First party PS5 games might well be the best.

Cross platform games will be held back by the Series S GPU and RAM, PS5 CPU, and everything on the Nintendo Switch and low end PCs

Ultimately it will come down to TLOU/Uncharted/Horizon Zero Dawn Vs Halo/GoW

And playing with your friends

You're better than that

Really? Surely there's far more interesting stuff on both consoles than those 5.

What do you mean? That's what it will come down to!

Do you want to play TLOU3, Uncharted 6 and HZD 3? Get a PS5

Do you want to play Halo 7, Gears of War X, etc, get a Xbox

I guess I should include Doom, Elder Scrolls and Fallout now. Although the latter two I have always found a very sub-par experience on console (any console)

Hellblade 2, Avowed, State of Decay, Forza, Forza Horizon, Fable - even the ones we know nothing about are coming from highly thought of studios.

I agree looking at the exclusives is important but people shouldn't still represent it as Xbox has Gears and Halo and that's it. I'm not even sure they'll be the flagships this gen once the studios really gear up (GoW definitely shouldn't be, needs a rest / reboot)

Oh fair enough. To be fair, you could say the same about Playstation too..

I remember being super excited about Fable (I was really interested in Lionhead studios as I was a big fan of Black and White). I didn't know Microsoft were still making Fable games? What is the most recent one?

It's being built by Playground who did the Forza Horizon series. We know they can build beautiful open world, long tail progression games (semi RPG) and I think would nail the British humour and tone of Forza. Obviously they are moving from a racing game though so all about whether they get the right talent with the right experience.

Ok thanks for the feedback, tbh I was going to go Series x if I stayed with Xbox, if that’s the best option I’ll stick with that.

Its definitely expanded thanks to the cross platform gameplay. We do have aim assist on console but PC players are quick and agile with a mouse and keyboard.....that don’t vibrate.

so has turning off all the in game visual effects/enhancements in the game menu for online/multiplayer, again coming across from PC gamers.

A bit of both to be honest but I would usually game at night so mostly with a headset. If people solely play competitive online shooters then I guess that's up to them, I would also turn vibrations off for cod but that's about it really everything else i enjoy the extra level of feedback.
