Starfield will eventually make it's way to Playstation and sell good. It is a niche game but it will attract a dedicated audience. I think it is pretty good and they should move it over to Playstation as soon as possible.
@Palleon I have never had a problem with my Series X or my PS5 and both are day 1 consoles. I do play the Series X much more. After playing Horizon Forbidden West I haven't even turned on my PS5.
The Series S is a good console. Best bang for your buck of any console out there. They removed co-op from the game, the base game is still the same nothing else has changed. I have a Series X and one of my kids has a series S the games look very good. For 200 bucks you get your monies worth.
@Sil_Am there is no difference. If Sony had the money MS has they would do the samething. Both companies are out to make as much money as possible anyway they can. You can easily play Starfield without getting a Xbox or a PC. It can be streamed. Streaming is much better than what it was a couple years ago.
@PsBoxSwitchOwner if you get a Xbox thru the All Access Program it comes with 2 years of Game Pass Ultimate. That was how I got mine. You save about 20 bucks on the Series X and about 30 on the Series S using the All Access Program. They delivered mine within 2 days.
@Mikey856 I think Sony bought Bungie for that reason. The next franchise that Bungie develops will be a Playstation exclusive. Bungie is the best at first person shooters.
@Ajfennell77 Bethesda games always ran better on Xbox anyway. I bought a Xbox the past 2 generations to go along side my Playstation for that very reason.
@Snake_V5 Morrowwind was on the original Xbox if it hadn't been successful we wouldn't have The Elder Scrolls series on console. RPGs are the main thing I play on Xbox. I feel it is more suited for them and the Xbox controller does a better job with them.
@Beerheadgamer82 the video and sound quality is much better on a 4k disc when compared to streaming. Dolby Atmos from a disc sounds much better than dolby atmos from a stream.
Put out a demo like they did on the PS3 and let everyone decide for theirselves. If I remember correctly the demo on PS3 was the section right after they picked up Ellie. Put the same section of the game out as a demo.
They need to put a playable demo out like they did with the PS3 version of The Last of Us. It would give us a chance to check out some of the enhancements.
@Dalejrfanfreak GamePass is hard to beat especially if you buy it when they have it half off during the holidays. I've been getting a year of GamePass every Christmas for around 60 bucks.
@middyone there have been several times when climbing I'll be pushing the stick in one direction and she'll go in the total opposite when the other direction is much closer to where I want to go. There are times I don't even feel like I'm controlling her. Regardless of what that article says my experience has been different other than that I like the game.
@Medic_Alert I personally think the traversal was better in the first game. It seems to be hit or miss grabbing a ledge in Forbidden West but I don't think I ever missed a ledge while playing Zero Dawn. The traversal is my only complaint about the game other than that I've had a great time with it.
Horizon Forbidden West is one of my favorite games this generation right up there beside Halo Infinite. Hopefully Sony and MS can produce a few more titles as entertaining as them. They are the type of games I like and they need more of them on the new consoles.
Bungie hasn't had really good financial backing since they left MS this is a good deal for them and Sony. They can keep Destiny and other games multiplatform and have extra levels, characters and weapons that are Sony exclusives, MS can do the same with the IP's they own and everyone will benefit. Their respective platforms will benefit having exclusive content while making money keeping things multiplatform. The company's they've bought will have financial security to try new endeavours. This doesn't have to be a negative for gamers. Even if they have the occasional game in a franchise exclusive to their platform I still think it can be beneficial to the fans, it's better than a studio having to close it's doors for good because of the lack of funds.

Re: Baldur's Gate 3's Accidental PS5 Console Exclusivity Truncated as Xbox Backtracks
@Razzamican you don't need a Xbox to play Starfield. You can play it on PC or stream it on various devices.
Re: Baldur's Gate 3's Accidental PS5 Console Exclusivity Truncated as Xbox Backtracks
@Constable_What @Razzamican no it isn't. Games are 1080p or 1440p.

The whole season felt rushed but I do think this was the best episode out of the entire season.
Re: Poll: What Did You Think of The Last of Us - Episode 8?

Re: Rumour: Sony Suspects Skyrocketing PS5 Sales as New Model Hits in September 2023
@sjbsixpack I wish I had waited for a smaller model to come out. It is way over sized and very cumbersome.
Re: Rumour: Sony Suspects Skyrocketing PS5 Sales as New Model Hits in September 2023
@sjbsixpack if you don't have the space I could understand it. The PS5 is hard to find a spot to place it in if you don't have the room.

Re: PS Plus Memberships: All Three Tiers Explained
The games on their service we already own should be playable without having to subscribe to their service.
