Meh, would be out of character. James Bond doesn't go around shooting people in the feet. Licence to kill, shoot to kill.

@UltimateOtaku91
"saves the company money, but in return the games won't get cheaper"

Absolutely this.

That'll be sales across all platforms?

The headline makes it sound like all those sales are on PS5.

@MrPeanutbutterz
"Shout out to the 30 new Series S owners for going their own way 👀"

Good to see some not following the crowd.

@UltimateOtaku91
"Oh look another article with PC fanboys flooding the comments, this is a Playstation dedicated site for Playstation fans"

Ironically though, this article isn't about Playstation.

@judgmentarrows
Yep, been proven many times. I acknowledged it hasn't helped against the PS5.

Was pointing out a fact to the article writer.

@get2sammyb
"Xbox Series X, which is equivalent in power to a PS5"

That really should read "which is at least equivalent in power to a PS5"

Digital Foundry:
"the Xbox Series X is a considerably more powerful piece of hardware than PlayStation 5"

Pointing that out may rile the fanboys but be consoled that all that extra power doesn't seem to have helped it at all against the PS5.

@LogicStrikesAgain
Yeah the Steam store isn't usually the cheapest place to get games.

Monster Hunter Wilds for example which you quoted at 79.99 can be got on a third party site for £30.

@Oram77
Indeed.

Seems more like common sense than quick thinking or particularly smart.

Insane that it can take a hit like that to sales numbers and still top the charts.

@Jammer
From the article:

"OD is currently only confirmed for Xbox Series X|S, but given Microsoft's shift into third-party publishing, a PS5 version seems likely."

@Mikeg1965 @UltimateOtaku91
A console can play games natively.

This update turns the Portal into a fully standalone streaming device (an excellent one at that).

I.E. It was the use of "console" I was questioning not "standalone".

Peace.

@UltimateOtaku91
"This turns the Portal into its own standalone console."

Ehh, no it doesn't.

@Oram77
"but here we have an article purely about Playstation and yet xbox is getting mentioned more often then not......."

Not so much, the article does actually mention Xbox and spectulates:

"but our best guess is that it’s planning to offer cross-buy between PS5 and PC purchases, a little bit like Xbox’s own ‘Play Anywhere’ strategy."

At the risk of being pedantic - a "IF PLAYER INPUT button A THEN BLOCK" type line of code is not AI.

@PuppetMaster
No, I was actually agreeing with you and being sarcastic about the review score itself.

@PuppetMaster
All those issues, that can't be correct... - it scored 9/10 right here.

@PuppetMaster
"You said "Xbox owners getting involved" here not just that dude Striker21 or maybe i read it wrong?".

I was suggesting that may happen, not advocating an invasion lol

Other stuff, free speech maybe 🙃

To add: You'd be better putting those questions to the moderators.

The same mods who haven't removed any of their posts?

You don't need to read their comments (im assuming un-sarcastically you know about "ignore" or maybe that feature has been disabled).

Anyway those comments seemed to have got a lot of engagement (admittedly not all positive 😄).

Engagement drives clicks and revenue.

@PuppetMaster
"Also, since when PushSquare comment section is a sterile echo chamber when everyday there's always someone complaining about Sony live service, Sony 1st party studios woke this woke that, PS+ games lineup, etc etc."

So essentially subjects that don't include Xbox.

Fair enough.

But if an article does, and in this case is Xbox centric, you will have Xbox owners getting involved in the discussion.

@PuppetMaster
"@Striker21 I think you should stick with PureXbox buddy"

Opposing opinions and views spark a bit of debate.

Even if you think they "wrote long paragraphs, arguing, and defending Xbox higher ups decisions as if you're working at their PR department."

Unless you'd rather a sterile echo chamber? 🙃

@EfYI
"However, just to punish the incessant exbots, I won't buy it"

Go you, I'm sure they will feel punished.

@MrStark
Not forgetting better cooling, smaller form factor, wider vrr range and more comprehensive backwards compatibility 😉

@graymamba
"you’re seeing a lot of anticipation and excitement here… I must be looking in the wrong place!"

Going by the amount of articles on PushSquare concerning it's anticipated PS release, you must be.

Shabby practice, as always.

Still, at least there is a disc (that can be resold), unlike Sony's collectors editions that have NO disc.

As always, I await an article on that.

@nessisonett
Goldeneye - written by Bono and the Edge, true story.

@Oram77
"if Sony owned ABK, the article would still be true."

If Sony owned ABK, this article probably wouldn't be written.

Well this is one way to shoehorn in an article about an MS/Xbox product on a PlayStation site.

Unsurprisingly, it's getting a kicking in the comments. In reality it's got some great reviews.

Personally it's too expensive for me.

@Flaming_Kaiser
No, I'm curious why there never seems to be an article highlighting it.

Ghost of Yotei was the latest opportunity.

How many have there been concerning Xbox games came to PS? Several.

MS's shoddy disc practices are called out, but Sony's aren't. On a PlayStation site at that.

@StitchJones
Suggesting a £450 current gen console is more than a dust collector makes them a fanboy?

That's an extremely low bar.

@TripleKing333
Still, not as "crap and cheap" and shoddy as no disc at all as in Sony's expensive collectors editions.

@Slayer25c
Tell that to the people who have cancelled their BF6 purchase.

Maybe it will change their minds...

https://www.pushsquare.com/news/2025/09/mega-publisher-ea-agrees-to-usd55-billion-buyout-by-saudi-arabia-silver-lake-affinity-partners

Sony getting into bed with Saudi owned EA.
Yuck.

@Oram77
"but once again I feel if this isn't on gamepass then Xbox players won't pay for it (shocker I know)"

Is there actually any proof that Xbox players "don't buy games"?

If not, then you're trolling.

Worth noting that Xbox gamers have the option of buying digital through 3rd party key resellers with substantial savings.

@get2sammyb
"Although, in that case, we’d recommend using two Blu-rays – this is supposedly a Deluxe Edition, after all."

Still waiting on an article condemning Sony's shoddy practice of not including ANY discs in their uber expensive collectors editions...

Won't hold my breath...

So now we're good with games copying games...

What happened to the Horizon type rage?

There's obviously a muddy area in between copying and inspiration - hopefully the opinion on it is not swayed by who owns the IP.

I would have needed a few guesses to have got it's the God of War controller.

Would have went for a football team, maybe Ajax lol

Some illustration from each game on it would have been better, the key weapons or something...

Edit: The stripe doesn't really match his omega tattoo - it should keep going diagonal and not cut back.

"belatedly arrive on the PS5"

Entitled much? Belated suggests that it 'should' have been realised on PS5 earlier.

Other consoles can have timed exclusives too.

@Artois2
Looks like it!

Was being facetious though.

The author obviously meant the price was absurd rather than the console itself.

"the absurd 2TB Galaxy Black version of the Xbox Series X"

Thought it was a decent console myself...

@get2sammyb

Read your hopes before for a port on this one.

Must be the first of the Xbox multiplats you're looking forward to! 😉

Best played with a yoke if possible 👍

Decent saving.

@UltimateOtaku91
"And that was a time before gamepass I believe so they weren't trained into not buying games at that point."

Such an off-hand view you have of Xbox and owners (presumably that is who "they" are).

Not long after, and still have it.
Needs to be upside down at roughly a 45 degree angle to read discs though! 😄

Wow, COD domination.
Just name the PS6 the 'Pew-Pew 6000'.
