30 fps works for me tbh some games you even get the option for 60fps I use 30fps if the resolution gets too low in that mode.
I'm never going to play a game rendering at 720p resolution on this gen of console that's PS3 and 360 resolutions for 60fps it's not worth it in most cases!
@Number09 Why would you need a portable playstation to connect to your tv to play surely you can just use you regular playstation for that?? The main point of it in the first place is to be portable he literally says user experiences away from the living room seems a waste to just use it as a regular playstation.
@themightyant Maybe he is getting mixed up with call of duty not being sustainable day one on gamepass.
A lot of people forget aswell it's a service you actually have to pay for it's not a free perk on Xbox it's fairly expensive now for the top tier.
@Swandivetotheasphalt Xbox lives rent free here dude surely you see that anyone with half an insight into gaming could wager a guess that playstation beats Microsoft on every metric you could measure.
Playstation has 3 times the user base and without gamepass playstation users definitely buy more games it's not news.
Like I said earlier it's like constantly comparing a house cat to a tiger day after day after day and acting surprised or that it's news when the tiger constantly comes out on top.
That's my logic.
Newsflash Real Madrid are a bigger team than Colchester united tomorrow we find out who sells the most shirts!
Hahaha ๐คฃ ๐
Playstation and Xbox are in different leagues when it comes to user base or game sales the dogs in the street know that my friend.
I guarantee any more of these comparison stories this week at least will have playstation on top no doubt
That's just obvious!
@NerdyPaul Just thinking it would be slightly less annoying if they at least tried to cover all bases rather than here's this house cat and tiger let's see which is faster, stronger like these Xbox vs playstation stories no matter the comparison playstation most likely is on top I don't see the purpose of them other then to bait people in the comments! There no new information or any insight into anything in these articles.
@Vertere You will see when the game launches my friend look over my previous comments about the subject they are still relavent. Seeing articles like this constantly is getting very old quick. Why explain anything when you can just put up a headline and let the comments go crazy. Pandering to the lowest common denominator not proper journalism just rage bait
@Rich33 Pre orders are vastly different to sales though I don't see an underlying narrative going on at all the game isn't only sold by preorders.
The number of sales or ratio of sales to user base in the end will have very little to do with pre orders months before release I don't see this saying anything at all.
And like I've mentioned for loads on Xbox it's pointless to preorder now when they can build up reward points off the game between now and release I know many people not just myself doing that exact same thing.
@Rich33 Also I was asking you to get a grip when you made out like people on Xbox wouldn't buy the game due to being conditioned by gamepass not to buy games.
Helldivers sold near 2 million on Xbox when it launched obviously GTA will do a lot more than that.
@Rich33 How many times bigger is the playstation user base to Xbox about three times the size right?? This comparison could be done by any game releasing on both consoles amd get the same results also the rewards points that most will earn on Xbox before the game releases makes a big difference also. The game would never have more or close to the same pre orders on Xbox that would be impossible because of the difference in size of user base.
I'm going to play a couple things this weekend red dead nightmare and a little bit of 2 also the amazing Forza horizon 6 and a little bit of eafc 26! Happy weekend folks ๐ช
@Rich33 That's amazing and great I just don't care it's just the usual bs from here and the same author it's preorders not sales I don't care for the Dr Phil psycho bull to fan the console war flame which is always the main point of the site.
It will sell loads on both console also gamers on Xbox aren't mindless sheep unable to buy games over gamepass get a grip on yourself please!
Also what's the point in pre ordering it now it's months away and on Xbox everyone earns Microsoft points if I pre ordered now I would miss out on the around 40 quid of reward points I could use for that game and pre order it just before it releases?
What would you do if on Xbox in that case?
pre orders are literally nothing but something the company itself to boast about!
@SystemAddict Yeah I got that vibe to be honest with saints row more reboot aswell unfortunately! I couldn't imagine the writers at rockstar being that tone deaf though in fairness.
@Yomv7t The previous trailers looked ok graphics where fine to me but I'd agree the new shots do look a bit off cartoony.
When they dropped red dead screenshot and gta 5 they looked quiet close to the finished games vibe and look.
It's entirely possible despite this game selling like hotcakes no doubt but it could end up not that well received for a GTA game I have a sneaky suspicion it's not going to be as good as we all think it will be.
@Sonofken There was that trailer aswell of some game I don't think it got released. Some dude was fighting a dragon in a suit of armor and it looked like a film but it was shown as gameplay with dark souls like hud but it was obvious that it wasn't the game.
To be honest the screenshots are mostly a bit cringy! Just the characters in different poses wearing different clothes like some fashion parade trying to look cool. Fine if you're into that but some gameplay or action screenshots would of been better considering it's a game not a fashion magazine!
@PsBoxSwitchOwner A different era my friend it's not really relevant in this current market it's competing against it's contemporaries not historical sales!
There was a difference in income rate all those years ago different price points not to mention different trajectory or prices the after release instead of the price going down like before this gen the price went up.
Playstation has dominated this gen if they done any better Xbox wouldn't exist anymore!
@GuttyYZ It's not a point of view my friend it's reality the genie is out of the lamp with AI now governments are heavily invested in it now it won't go away especially the more capable it becomes.
@Northern_munkey Yes exactly I love it!!
Apparently that's viable now don't you know ๐
The less you sell the more you make in profit definitely makes sense ๐ช๐
Also selling less after price increases is definitely a choice definitely not related at all!๐คช
Weather you are playstation Xbox or a Nintendo fan our hobby is in danger guys!! It's not looking good for anyone is it? Even the retro/used console market will probably raise there prices soon if current gen machines get to 1000 dollars! This is bull no doubt!! It's probably the start of the end of home consoles and streaming will the only logical way to keep up unless you can pay that type of money for a console! Very depressing!
These prices are bonkers now it's absolutely crazy ๐คช๐คช I bought a series s for 350 euro brand new a little while later series X brand new for 450 euros brand spanking new!! Next gen prices will be bonkers!!
@twitchtvpat Yeah exactly day one for me I'm basically fully digital anyways so it doesn't bother me at all but it would suck if you where a physical collector
@NorrinRadd Ok I can see I'm preaching to the wrong crowd here haha ๐
Go the Japanese getting consoles cheaply and subsidised by the rest of the world that's cool maybe Microsoft and valve will do the same for the Americans in the future ๐
Also there is consumer rights and laws so yeah it's not like you can just charge whatever for anything.
@MamaSymphonia Just seems like favouritism while putting up prices everywhere else they make a bespoke playstation for Japan and sells it cheaper than anywhere else in the world doesn't seem fair to me.
It's not like companies commonly have a single country where they make it there mission to sell there products as cheaply as they can!
Shouldn't there be laws against companies showing favouritism to specific regions??
Why is it ok for the Japanese to buy the ps5 so cheap in there country but its much more expensive everywhere else?
Why is the Japanese consumer shielded from the ram crisis price increases when it comes to playstation??
@twitchtvpat I wouldn't do it myself but it's not beyond the realms of possibility that many would it's not your average run of the mill game it's GTA!
Also there's a lot of people who prefer physical ownership but wouldn't want to wait for the disc version to release and could double drip I don't see it as a crazy thing to say it will happen in some cases!
I'm sure there's loads out there that bought a couple versions of GTA 5 aswell considering it lasted 3 gens and every one had it's own version.
A lot of people out there have more money than sense.
@Oram77 Looks to me they are hoping people who want a physical release will get fomo and double dip possibly? Absolutely no reason for this from rockstar especially considering this is going to be the biggest game ever!
Depending if what you can actually get in these exclusive shops I could eventually pick this up most likely not in fairness. I'd wager a bet those vice city t-shirts you see both characters in is definitely in one of the shops!
@Dogbreath I'm not talking about Weinstein I'm talking about Tupac he is loved buddy right or wrong those are the facts I don't know what you want me to say I have nothing to do with the making of this game or any game so you are asking the wrong person. Personally I like he is in the game and look forward to seeing how he is portrayed and what role he will play. For me it's a purely positive thing that's basically my stance๐
@Dogbreath The line is when the payment is good enough for the people or person owning the rights in my opinion things like this don't offend me to be honest.
You are far too deep into the politics of this dead celeb cameo things and trying to get answers from me and explanations won't fix or change anything especially because I literally have nothing to do with any of this or it's legality.
Tupac wasn't evil relax yourself my friend another user perfectly explained why he wasn't all bad to you.
@Dogbreath Spoken with true ignorance check out who Tupac was and the good he actually did and is still done in his name! You clearly don't know what you are talking about!
People need to get a grip if Tupac in this game effects you life's too short to piss and moan about everything!
Personally it makes me want to try out the game I was a huge Tupac fan back when hopefully it's done with respect.
Hahaha yeah good luck with that I'd say! Wasted money on this overpriced crap when the whole gaming world weather they know it or not wants half-life 3!!!!!!!๐คฌ๐ก
I don't imagine many people jumping to buy the games again at that price in fairness they are quite old should be 30 quid all dlc included in my opinion makes no sense to charge so much!
@Northern_munkey Just my 10 cents your getting grief for being logical and it doesn't make sense to me everything boils down to the price increase that's just common sense in fairness.
@Northern_munkey In my opinion you were 100% right it's cause and effect! They choose to put the price up (cause) and due to the price being higher less people will buy the consoles (effect) there no other workings around it obviously people can make up some and point out other factors but logically speaking once the price goes up the rest is inevitable. You were right straight away the only choice Sony had was to put the prices up on console or not and everything else after that is a result of that choice nothing more or less. They should be apologising to you my friend!
