Re: PS5 Reportedly Hands Forza Horizon 5 an Additional 5 Million Sales

@Naughtyottsel92 First of all, I'm not an Xbox purist. Whatever that means.

Secondly, Sony would be far better off if they didn't sell hardware and instead allowed access to the PlayStation store on as many devices as possible.

Bespoke console hardware will be irrelevant after the PS6 generation. And everyone should be excited about that.

Re: Xbox Exclusive RPG Avowed Is Coming to PS5 in February with Major New Features

@IamJT It's an update for a game released a year ago not a Beta test. Also, I played it on Game Pass, enjoyed it and then bought it for £15 with a Game Pass discount. I'll get the update for free.

I think it's a brilliant game and PlayStation only gamers should definitely play it. But the fact is that they'll all be paying full price.

Re: Big Updates on Massive Xbox Games, Bound for PS5, Later This Month

@MrPeanutbutterz That is the easiest solution to their problem though. There are many, many Xbox games that will never be on PlayStation and if someone wants to play them they should buy an Xbox.

I'm fortunate that I have both platforms and don't have to miss out. Personally I would love to be able to play any game I want without having to buy multiple pieces of hardware but that isn't the world we live in. Yet.

I still ultimately believe that there won't be bespoke hardware from either Sony or Microsoft after the next Xbox and PS6 and we'll be able access any digital storefront we want from a generic PC in a box under our TVs. At that point all that will matter are the games and all of the pointless system loyalty can disappear. I cannot wait.

Re: Best Remakes and Remasters on PS5

@wildcat_kickz We're probably just talking semantics now when it comes to labelling things. I just don't think TLOU on PS5 is a remake.

Jumanji! That was a remake!

@wildcat_kickz I'm loving that you used Hitchcock as an example because I would liken TLOU on PS5 to Psycho with Vince Vaughan. An almost shot for shot copy of the original Anthony Perkins movie. Same dialogue. Same scenes. Same soundtrack.

Re: Best Remakes and Remasters on PS5

@wildcat_kickz But, seeing as we're here, I still believe that a remaster is polishing the original content to look or sound better and a remake is creating something new with the same spirit of the original content.

Resident Evil 2 is a remake of the PS1 original. Whereas The Last of Us Part 1 is a remaster of the PS3 original.
