@Col_McCafferty yes, I’ve made up my mind. I won’t be buying PS5 soon, since Horizon comes to PS4 too, my only anticipated exclusive.
Next to that I’ll continue enjoying my switch, and I’ll get a Series S or X for all 3d party stuff and Game Pass when Flight Simulator gets released on the system. And I’ll enjoy the Medium, I’m sure.
Are you calling Netflix an “ An all you can eat buffet which actually turns out to include rotten items and only one type of cheese.“? it’s the same concept, really. A ton of stuff which when taken together is suited for everyone for a low price, with high quality stuff mixed into it.
@Sim1 not many, you’re right. However, there are still some games that are still groundbreaking.
Mario Odyssey, Breath of the Wild and Flight Simulator are those groundbreaking games of recent years that I’m thinking about. New experiences. New technology.
Maybe God of War and Last of Us collection (for storytelling) could be on that list. But then again, Sony is turning it more and more into blockbuster movies.
@playstation_king as I said, I have playstation 2, 3 and 4 lined up here. Second game I ever bought myself? Tekken on the PS 1 for my brother in law’s console, after Mario 64.
So are you really calling me an Xbox fanboy? Try to get out of your bubble once in a while.
@WallyWest am I though? I have playstation 2, 3 and 4 all lined up here.
I am very disappointed in the 3d person, only cgi games Playstation currently makes. Horizon, God of War, Ghost of Tsushima, even Death Stranding all felt very the same to me in a way. All 3d person over the shoulder action stuff with a story. And they do that again.
Also, Sony has a thing for buying exclusivity rights currently. I don’t like that practice one bit. And they are the only ones on the market that do that.
@Col_McCafferty you can have your opinion, but it’s same story every console generation for Sony. No innovation except stolen ideas, same games, safe bet.
In my opinion: Microsoft with Gamepass and functional Xcloud on phones, computers and their own box, that’s impressive. THAT is next gen. Same with Switch hardware.
To each their own, but Sony only has one pony to bet on.... and for me it’s getting boring. First PS launch I won’t join in.
Truly nothing groundbreaking in my opinion during the PS5 announcement. Final fantasy 16, but also coming to pc. Bunch of games we already had seen. Are any of them truly groundbreaking? Almost all CGI stuff. One button press and the character does all kind of things for half a minute. Just like playing a movie. No dates for any of the games. We have no idea about the launch lineup.

That’s how I feel about them though.
Re: Sony Confirms PS5 Games Will Cost More
@Kalvort that, and with a gamepass subscription you don’t even have to buy most games...
Re: Talking Point: Did the PS5 Showcase Event Deliver?
@doctommaso as I said. They’re more and more like movies. You play them for the story. Not the gameplay. One button press and cgi starts rolling.
In my opinion of course.
Maybe I’ve seen it all. Maybe I should start.... reading books or something.

Re: Talking Point: Did the PS5 Showcase Event Deliver?
@WallyWest except they had almost no reveals . Final fantasy XVI, HP and Five nights at Freddies.

Boring to be honest.
