CD should stick to the Netflix anime then, if it's meant to be canon to the games' unified timeline. Future movies by Amazon/MGM don't need to be canon.
While you wait for something concrete: if you have FFIX on PC/Steamdeck, please treat yourself to a playthrough with the Moguri Mod. It's genuinely the best way to play it and looks stunning!
The only thing I didn't activate, basically, was the retooled score. There'll never be a better version of Crossing Those Hills than the version we already got on the original game (though Harpsibored on YouTube comes damn close).
The resolution and framerate issues, along with the rather bland side quests, stop it from achieving true classic status for me. But it's still the best mainline FF title since 9 or 10.
Unless I can buy the physical games second-hand, put them into the PS5's disc drive and play them natively from the disc, then this is always gonna be a flop in my eyes
I’m gonna miss the optical port. It’s how I connect my PS4 to my sound system without getting any audio lag ARC creates an approx 1 second lag that’s just too jarring to ignore.
Come ooooon! Praying for a really competitive reveal of Friday November 6th launch date, £399 standard console and £349 digital edition, with a 0% APR finance option including PSPlus and PSNow.
I legit don’t care at all if the PS5 hits 2160 or even “8K” if it has to utilise its own version of DLSS-style machine learning. Has anyone seen Death Stranding running on a PC with DLSS on? It looks, and plays, phenomenally.
Microsoft were perfectly fine with timed exclusives when it came to stiffing PlayStation gamers for a year with Rise of the Tomb Raider. Now they know PS5 is going in hard with the model, they’re ***** their pants.
Death Stranding, Uncharted 4/TLL, God of War, The Last of Us Part II, Days Gone, Dreams, Horizon, and some big third party titles like Rise/Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Red Dead 2 etc
It's one thing to ask consumers "what's your dream console to play on?", it's another thing entirely to ask developers "what's your dream console to develop for?" I imagine all developers are gamers too, so they'll be telling you they want it as easy as possible to make their games look and feel incredible, and I think that's the smartest platform to springboard from, because the end user always wins.
While I'm also ridiculously eager to see the big reveal, the UI, games, graphics etc, I'm starting to think that Sony is playing a deliberate long-game here by wooing the developers first and foremost.
They know the PS4 has a huge install base, and that they (myself included) will want to be able to upgrade their hardware, enjoy new software and still be able to enjoy their existing library. The fans are always going to be the fans. But I now honestly think Sony has contacted Cerny via the Palantir and said "build me an army worthy of the next generation", and he's been on the charm offensive for several months now, bringing as many third-party developers as possible into the fold for them to see how PS5 is going to be the platform of choice to develop on.
I'm prepared to wager that within the first 12-24 months, PlayStation 5's list of timed exclusives and exclusive DLC/extra content over the XBX, as well as the number of third-party developers shouting from the rooftops about how PS5 has changed everything, will be as long as your arm.

Re: Industry Analyst Argues Either Sony or Microsoft Will Need to Exit the Console Market

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Final Fantasy 16?

Re: There's Been a Big Scandal About Whether PS5 Can Run Games in 4K
The PS5 has already been shown to be running games in native 4K. It’s all BS spread by boring morons.
