Well GTA 6 is $100 for the base game. Might even be $150 with the online bundled in. Glad i have all my hardware bought and paid for in cash at the start of the generation. PS6 and the next Xbox are likely to be $700 base models. PS5 Pro looking good at $700 for now anyways.

I loved the first two games, but Tiny Tina was awful and BL3 was just ok, this didn’t show me too much to be excited for. Sadly i think my Borderlands days are over. But there is plenty to play this year with all 3 consoles having solid lineups.

@JB_Whiting Damn shame they didn't put in a 120fps mode.

They can’t the CPU won’t handle it. The PS5 is a GPU upgrade not a CPU upgrade. But the nicer visuals are nice to see. PS6 with a stronger CPU might see some updates like 120fps.

@czDante92 wow thats great news for the studio. I downloaded it on Gamepass just to see if I would like it but i am not much into turn based RPG’s. But i am happy to see a smaller dev team create a highly rated game and make money. That i do like to see. 😀

@naruball you would think so. But again everyone is out to defend their plastic box of choice and then when the tables turn they just act like they didn’t say dumb stuff online. I read and remember why to much on here. I own all 3 consoles and i do like to play the old Nintendo games on Switch Online, but i don’t use the BC on Series X all that much. Handful of my favorites is about it. PS5 i only use for Sony titles so really just PS4 as i don’t like Sony’s BC at the moment.

@naruball you are right about that.i remember when Xbox announced it’s backwards compatibility and this site was full of people saying i didn’t buy a PS5 to play old games. Remember that? Well like most stuff said online it’s cute to say it and be on the popular topic for that day, week or month but then they make people like me keep the receipts.

I however do like remakes and remasters, i just wish they would wait until there is a big enough jump to make it really stand out. I think oblivion did a good job of that, Days Gone however seems to be a bad example of a remaster in my opinion.

@get2sammyb i hope it hits a million or 2 sales in time and gives the small team plenty of cash to continue making games. Would be nice to see. The more money they get the more they can put into future titles.

@DennisReynolds @OldGamer999 it’s a requirement to support Pro with new games coming out is my understanding. So all games going forward likely have some sort of Pro mode. Otherwise Sony would never be able to build up enough games to make it worthwhile. Like PSVR2

@Northern_munkey right!!! I mean who would have thought a $700 dollar console made in 2024 would be more powerful than the one made in 2020 for $500. Sure glad we got this sorted out.

@UltimateOtaku91 the difference is MS can do 40-45 million in console sales cause their games are on all platforms and they own games that do billions in dollars. Sony at least the way the business is ran at the moment needs 100 plus million consoles to make the return on investment worth its while. MS Sony and Nintendo are now running very very different business models. Not to say any of them are in trouble cause all 3 are making huge amounts of cash. Sony does ok in Japan but the number will continue to likely shrink as Japan is now a huge growing PC space and we know Switch 2 and Mobile will do huge numbers in the region. However they are growing in other regions so i don’t think Sony cares that much about a slight decrease in Japan.

@nomither6 right as PC gaming continues to grow in Japan and it is. The PS5 will just be a closed box PC with timed exclusives. Thats a harder sell then what it was in consoles past. They will rent them and play the few games they want while buying Switch and PC’s and then realize they don’t need a console when they fully adopt waiting for the PC title. Which that window will continue to shrink as they push more live service games.

This is a good get for PS only gamers cause this game ran like dog water on the PS3.

Seems hardware and software were always going to increase if they had their way about it.

So it was always going to happen if they had their way.

@Treestar yeah i don’t want to risk getting a ban or suspended account talking politics when i like to come here and talk with a few cool people on here whenever Sony releases something not the last of us remastered remaster, complete edition.

It’s getting mostly bad takes on most forums, but i think it looks decent. Not saying i will play it a ton like i do other shooters. But i think it looks better than some of the dislikes it seems to be getting.

Someone has to bring something to the Pro other than the Last of Us and remakes. I mean the fact that MS is likely to carry the Pro over Sony is weird times. The Pro is a beta test for PS6 and outside a few games no one is saying that the Pro is good. Like it’s just there, but at $700 dollars you need to be more than just there. You need to stand out. If GTA 6 don’t stand out on the Pro in a way that gamers can see, the Pro is noting more than bragging rights of power that the average gamer has to go to DF for their 300X zoom on a piece of grass.

@Bionic-Spencer Gears of war is my favorite IP in gaming and i agree it would be a shame not to have the PVP on the collection. But it makes sense that they want all the players on E-Day playing PVP. They won’t have the player base spilt and they can focus on new ideas with the PVP as E-day is a new game. I have a Series X and PS5 and would double dip this games as like i said i am a HUGE Gears fan. Can’t wait for E-day!!!

@nomither6 is anyone tired of this series yet?
and it’s only been 2 games 😂😂

I am far more tired of Horizon but yes this is getting old. It’s funny tho cause it went from Xbox has no games to Sony has no games and MS is putting games on PS. The industry changes so fast.

Not to mention if Sony would have released all those cancelled live service games they would have been day and date on PC like HD2, so they would have had no exclusives. Things change quickly, never say never when money is involved.

HAHHAHA and the rumor mill strikes yet again with the truth. Here i was hoping this was an April Fools joke. Not a bad deal for those that never owned them.

Those will print money.

It’s also one of the best looking games on the market right now easily. On PC it looks insane. I got a buddy that is a HUGE Indy fan. But when I played it on Series X i was shocked how good it looked. Game files will continue to rise with all the detail. It’s totally worth your SSD space.

I don’t expect a shadow drop. The game has undergone a lot of changes from what was reported. So it could be a ways off yet. But i am excited to see it. Hoping they get it right.

Once I finish building my PC, i am sure i will get the Switch 2. But the prices could have been a little more fair. However to be able to lay in bed and play Metroid and Mario Kart, i do not see me passing that up.

@ChrisDeku that is the make or Break comment. Either Bungie starts making money and stays in the shape they want the studio or Sony steps in. This is public knowledge. The story has already been told. Now it’s time for Bungie to cook and make great content. We all know what Bungie prefers, they said it themselves. I didn’t say it they did. I was just saying here we go. Let’s see what ya got Bungie.

I am excited and nervous. Cause this is a make or break for Bungie. If they get it right well they are Bungie as normal. This game bombs and losses tons of money and it’s likely Sony will break them up into other parts of their studios as was said might happen. Here’s hoping it really good.

Hey Gamepass your so fine you’re so fine you blow my mind… hey Gamepass, Hey Gamepass.

I mean this year i have played a lot of games I’d normally buy and i just haven’t cause of GP. Now i will pay whatever GTA 6 cost cause i know I’ll be playing it online and story for a long time. The truth is devs need to be careful cause all this will do is make those free to play games even bigger and we know gamers don’t mind dropping money here and there on micro transactions.

@Northern_munkey i might fish Sunday morning if i can. Weather here has been a mess so the rivers and lakes are likely flooded. But i sure would like to try! 🎣

@Northern_munkey i agree with you 100%. You and i whether we agree on something or disagree are the reason i come here as well. Along with many others. Cause agreeing makes the experience that much more fun to share and disagreeing is good for seeing things from a different angle and learning how others view things. I come here for that too and to remind PS to make off set thumb sticks but i digress HAHA. I just don’t get the end goal they are doing here, slightly bashing the competition, not being honest with Sony’s up’s and downs. Telling people disc’s have 20 years or less until they rot, which to me was a total article trying to prefer for a disc less PS future. Just odd the choices they have chosen to me. I don’t trust to many sites or YouTubers for reviews these days. I am down to like maybe 2 and even those it’s only a strong guideline. Years ago reviews were important to me and more times than not right on the money. Let’s hope instead of them taking our comments down they listen and make the site more fun and entertaining even interactive. Instead of this. As always buddy i truly appreciate your time and friendship here at Push, i always look forward to your posts, idea’s input etc. thanks for being part of the fun! 😀

@GeeForce yeah the VRR on PS sucks and has since i bought it in 2021. I have a LG Oled that does 144hz and the Xbox’s VRR runs circles around PS5. But i rarely comment on it cause most people aren’t mature enough to handle any form of criticism of their plastic box of choice. The PS5 Pro at that price should be running WAAAY better than it does. Tho recent Assassin’s creed did start to show some promise. The Nintendo articles will die down soon and it will be back to what Xbox games are PS fans getting.

@Jrs1 i really appreciate that! Thank you. There is always reason to have faith in the Red White and Blue. For that matter there is always reason to have faith in most places as it’s the love you have for your country and one another that matters way more than fake media rants over things they know is a lie. Thats never and will never be the true representation of the people.

@dark_knightmare2 so 2 games which is good, tho one isn’t made by their internal teams, the other is a yearly sports title with a fresh of the roster and a rumor. I mean hey if that floats your boat that is all that matters. Happy gaming and all.

@PsBoxSwitchOwner every website is pushed by fanboy articles it seems. Tells me the games aren’t as good as they are being reviewed or they just like stirring the pot. Likely it’s a bit of both. But it hurts the industry as whole. Story time but a good lesson i learnt as a young adult. Hope it helps.

When i got out of high school my first job was selling cars (hard Job) and the area had 3 car dealerships all on the same street. In certain cities that is popular to see. On days we were slow making no money as it was 100% commission we would all say look at that other dealership they have customers today and my boss would always tell us its not a bad thing that they have customers cause that means people are in the market for new vehicles and in time will come to look at ours, just be ready. He was more upset if no one was looking to buy anywhere. Point of this is the video game market is so not like this. If Xbox is not going well, all you see is they should leave the market, instead of hey they should try to win back marketshare, same with the Wii U, Nintendo should put all their games on PS and Xbox, etc etc etc. gamers should be happy to have choice and happy to see other platforms doing well. It don’t hurt to say someting nice about people and products, in the end it could be what brings better things to you.

@SMJ Thank you friend. Think about it in 5 years this generation has now seen 2 price hikes to software. Sony came into 9th gen with $70 and now Nintendo enters 9th with some titles being $70 or $80. It’s been a wild ride to say the least.

@IOI couldn’t agree more. I am building my PC now, first ever by the way, so exciting and scary all at the same time you know? Haha but i too am not a big fan of windows. Been using Mac for over 15 years now. But the next Xbox has a lot to get right but if they do, it could be a killer machine for the more hardcore gamer market. The funny thing is i actually like my PS5, I didn’t like PS4 all that much and PS3 was a train wreck with a few good games. The only thing stopping me from playing my PS5 is the same problem since PS1, Sony has the worst controllers ever for my play style and desire of comfort. I like everything else about the PS5 minus no killer games from Sony yet. Switch 2 like i said i will get it at some point. It pairs nicely with a PC. That combo plays everything. Good luck in what you decide for the future, as long as you are happy and having fun you made the right choice.

@PsBoxSwitchOwner they had a few Switch 2 articles, one saying Switch 2 did Xbox one moves and i ripped into that too. That couldn’t be further from the truth. Sure there is some comparisons. But still. So for the record i ripped into that. I don’t play favorites.

@Ainu20 Thank you for saying that. Video games have become the most toxic hobby i have. No one is ever happy and god forbid you like a console or PC over the other one. They bully you into thinking you are an idiot for having choice and different tastes for products in the same industry. This site i think is having a hard time convincing people PS5 is all that great this gen with more cancellations than releases and remasters for games that don’t need remastered. It’s gotten so bad and it’s a shame cause this industry is about fun and excitement. If this is the attitude and attention it get’s from the fans how do these people survive in the real world with a mean Boss or teacher? I’d pay to see that HAHA

@IOI Sony and Nintendo are battling each other with the anti consumer practices. Only gamers can push back. Look at when Sony went to PC thinking they would all just make PSN accounts. That didn’t last long. Cause the PC market is more mature and will simply say no and not do what they want. Sony bent the knee quickly. But on the console side gamers complain but not force change. Xbox will look really good next gen with more store fronts, nice blend of open PC options but a little bit of closed options to still make it plug and play console. It’s sounding better and better. While it won’t outsell the other 2, is that really the point in video games is to only care what sales more? I am not saying you are saying that but many take that idea and run with it and then wonder why they sit in that boat.

@S1ayeR74 Christ what is with the sudden insecurity of this site??? A massive influx of articles of how 'PS5 is better than Switch 2' is INCREDIBLY fanboy ish and quite sad and pathetic. You lot come across as feeling rrreeeeaaaaallllllyy threatened by it. And as for consumer friendly? I put Sony and Nintendo BOTH in the same boat on that topic, Valve and Microsoft embarrass both companies when it comes to that topic.

Well you said what i was going to say nearly word for word so my work is done here. I would only like to add this website takes Jab after Jab at Xbox. Then turns around and writes a million switch 2 articles. It’s as if they don’t want to talk about the Last of Us remastered 4 times and Day’s Gone remaster. Oh wait they don’t cause Sony is giving next to nothing lately to talk about outside of they sold and shipped over 75 million units. I used to love this site, but it’s been cringe lately.

@nomither6 this Survey wasn’t done in Japan obviously. Sony has to rent PS5’ over there they are so secondary.

Is this when everyone say’s they will watch it and it only gets 1.5 million views? I kid i kid

I would watch it, I loved the game. Can’t wait to see what they do with the second game. Astro Bot and Ratchet and Clank are my 2 favorite games from 1st party this generation so far.

I’ll just play more games from Gamepass and PS+

If everyone is waiting on discounts how is a service less money for the devs?

@kedireturns don’t need to go to.a website to know a Hybrid console/Handheld isn’t the same as a home console. Without a portal can you take your PS5 as is in the box it comes in and play it on the go?

????????????????????

@nomither6 you know it! I am there. I never loved PS controller since PS1 really. Lazy Super Nes clone with added thumb sticks in the wrong place. I was so close to buying a 5080 this weekend but someone beat me to it. I will build a 5080 build with the best AMD CPU and get a swtich 2 and not need a controller that needs a diet
(Dual Sense)

@glennthefrog Yeah Frog i agree, the only companies games not on Steam is Nintendo. Sure MS is leaning into games everywhere but some of that push is the fact they bought two 3rd party publishers that have been multi plat. Add that in to less a world wide market for Xbox and it makes sense to me. Not to mention MS is a software company that put’s its software every where. Sony sells well worldwide and they still come to PC. Well that should tell it all. Single platform no matter the size isn’t enough.

I loved what i seen of Switch 2 today with so much more to come that once I finish my PC 5080 build i will at minimum sell my PS5 and Switch 1. Might keep my Xbox for tv console play.

@Juanalf i mean i guess so???? But spec comparisons as we know aren’t the final say in ports and game devs, cause Series X is better than PS5 paper specs. While it shows in a lot of games it doesn’t in many as well. Asking me if a PC is a console is my point in asking is a Handheld hybrid a console? The answer is no. They are different products.
