Microsoft yet again talking out of their asses even though they don't know anything about Sony's plans. Last year, Sony already had announced they wouldn't be at E3 2019 by November 2018. If they weren't attending this year, I am pretty sure we would know by now and Microsoft wouldn't be the ones announcing it.
@doctommaso Maybe it will release in 2020, but late 2020. The fact is, we have zero information about this game, so it's definitely releasing late 2020 at this point. They will likely have a gameplay reveal at E3.
It's just a rumor and nothing is confirmed. DF doesn't know what they're talking about and they're now just another clickbait site that use fake rumor numbers to get clicks.
There is literally no specs confirmed for either the PS5 or Xbox Series X.
Doesn't really matter if he is keeping his cards close to his chest, since the CPU and GPU are definitely locked at this point and we're way past the point of no return on those, so they can't be changed. The only thing that will differ from devkit to retail is ram and hard disk space.
Also, Sony is better at hardware when they try, so no, they will not be on equal footing, since there is a huge chance the PS5 will end up the most powerful one. The only time Xbox could claim it was more powerful is when they released a year later. Also Sony didn't really try with the PS4 Pro because they didn't need to, it was a quick cash grab for them. Meanwhile Microsoft went all out and it didn't even matter, since the PS4 not only still beat the crap out of Xbox One, but I am willing to bet the PS4 Pro also outsold the Xbox One X by a huge margin as well.
I can't understand why people are so hyped for this. The Witcher 3 is the only good game CDPR has made (the Witcher 2 was decent and the first game was actually pretty bad). For all everyone knows, they could be a one trick pony.
Plus every stupid design decision about Cyberpunk is not encouraging.
@HailHydra97 I love the RPG aspect more. My problem with Wildlands is that you could just go get the best guns from the start and use them all the way through. Going in a 5 difficulty area in the beginning just to get a gun wasn't really hard by sneaking around. I love wildlands, but there was no point to ever use more than one gun through the entire game.
It's not US only, it's for North America. I am from Canada and I got this theme months ago along with Spiderman and Horizon platinum rewards when I got those platinums.
Why would the guy tell anything to a bunch of private investigators? Private Investigators have no authority or powers whatsoever, you can just laugh right at them and shut the door in their faces and there is nothing they can do. If they then trespass, you can actually defend yourself or just call the actual police on them (you know the ones with actual authority).
Private investigators have a license, but that license is worthless. They can't arrest you, they can't question you, they can't search your home legally or even get a warrant. Might as well hold a blank paper instead of a license.
@TheTruthThis You realize professional reviewers are wrong and just bashed the game for no reason when user reviews on metacritics gives it a higher score than critic reviews. 99% of the time, it's the opposite.
Really, it's pretty obvious that user reviews are more accurate than critic reviews on Metacritics.
I love Anthem (I am one of the rare people who love it), but this is definitely not gonna keep me from going to the division 2 when it launches. The Division 2 just looks to be the better loot shooter out there.
This was likely child's play compared to the 1-2 guys at XSEED who had to translate Legend of Heroes Trails in the Sky SC. I feel sorry for those guys.
@NintendoFan4Lyf Even though it's called GTA Online, other players are actually a problem and the worst part of the game. If this game is similar, other players are a problem too.
@playstation1995 I don't know about the other three, but Insomniac keep saying they want to remain independant, so it won't happen. If it were to happen, they would probably go with Sony anyway because they have a much better relationship with them than MS or Nintendo.
As for the other three, they could definitely buy them, but those companies already make games almost exclusively for Playstation, so it would be just as pointless as when Microsoft bought Playground games (because all those guys did were MS exclusives).
This one looks good. I usually don't like CoD, but even I am tempted to buy it. Getting a good 4K HDR tv next weekend (just in time for RDR2), I am waiting for that.
@Captain_Toad That's the thing, it won't cost them at all. They're gonna win next-gen even if they don't allow crossplay. You people keep thinking this is gonna affect their sales, but it really won't have any effect at all.
Launching a year later and $100 more expensive like the PS3 is the only thing that could make them come close to losing, but that's not gonna happen again. Even if it did, the PS3 still beat out the 360 in the end. It's painfully obvious that Microsoft will never win any generations ever, Xbox is an american brand that barely matters in the US anymore while Playstation is a brand with massive worldwide appeal. Microsoft are fighting a war they literally can't win.
My guess is that they will include BC with PS4 and crossplay next-gen, then MS won't have any ammo left to use against them and they will dig themselves into a deeper hole than they are now. Not that it matters, I am pretty sure Nintendo will back out of crossplay the moment they outsell Xbox One worldwide and just tell them to **** off because they won't need them anymore.
If Sony were truly mean, they could easily approach Nintendo for crossplay. Nintendo would probably accept in a heartbeat and ditch Microsoft. Then Sony could easily leave Microsoft alone to dry.
@Kai_ That definitely won't work at all. The PS4 is too far ahead of everyone else. Sony literally has all the leverage and Bethesda knows it. Sony doesn't have to budge because they know no one has the balls to do what Bethesda claims they're gonna do. It's 100% certain that Bethesda will chicken out.
No thanks. The first one looked good in trailers too, but when I got the game, it was terrible, it's one of the very few times I was disapointed in a game I bought and I can count those on 1 hand since I started gaming during the NES era.
@Paranoimia Actually, the laser for CDs is there (it says so in the safety manual), the only thing missing is the software, which they can add in a firmware update.
Instead of improving their console, MS are trying to make Sony looks bad instead. Hint: It doesn't work, the PS4 is still beating the crap out of you and 90% of the people still don't care about crossplay.
I really don't care for the multiplayer patch, I really want the new single player content that is supposed to come with it. Would have been nice if it came before as a seperate patch.
Meh, I don't care about NISA anymore except for Disgaea, which they only localize. Since Disagea is basically a Playstation series that get ported to another handheld afterward, Disgaea 6 will either be a PS4 exclusive or a PS4/Switch game, but either way, it will be on Playstation, so it doesn't bother me.
That's especially true after they butchered Ys VIII. XSEED wouldn't have butchered it like that (and they should have been the ones to localize it).
Disgaea is the only thing they can be trusted with anymore.
@Toadie Yet, the PS4 definitely sold more in its first year worldwide than the Switch. There is also the fact the PS4 did it mostly with US and Europe as Japan only got the PS4 3 months later and the sales weren't really good.
It's not all about US, otherwise the 360 would have crushed everyone last gen, but they didn't. The PS3 sold more worldwide every months since it released and it ended up catching up, while the Wii ... well you know about the Wii, it actually won.
One thing can be sure though: The Switch is selling faster than the Xbox One and I give it 2 years before it catches up and take second place.
Unlike the Switch version, this will likely drop in price fast or go on sale incredibly quickly, which is good because I still think it's far too expensive.
My friend just went offline as soon as he noticed this glitch. He has just beaten the game and he is gonna try for the platinum trophy.
Personally, I didn't see the point for myself, I only played 0 and Kiwami, waiting on Kiwami 2. Then I will wait until they either remaster 3-5 or make Kiwami 3-5. Not gonna play Yakuza 6 when I haven't played them all.
80,000 signatures is still far too insignificant for Disney to even care. Maybe if it was 8 millions, but do you really think they care about just 80,000 signatures? That number is too small for them to even acknolwedge this.

Also a February release date? It would have been revealed months ago if that was the case.
