@Nem Not 100% true, Bethesda have said they still want to bring new & old games to Nintendo & PlayStation platforms "when it makes sense".

Microsoft/Bethesda could calculate ES6 would make more money to NOT miss PlayStation, like COD.

The biggest issue that riled Microsoft up was the news that Starfield was set to be exclusive to PlayStation consoles so they decided to chance a buyout of Bethesda to get the game AT ALL. Then the time it took to finish Starfield was too much for them to consider to still releasing it for PlayStation unfortunately.

It could be we will have to see some big Bethesda games on Playstation in the future. I'd hate for PS5 to miss everything new, especially RPGs.

@MidnightDragonDX To be fair this far out means it's been developed enough to run on a PC, no optimizations yet for any consoles. That means even Xbox Series consoles. There is a chance ES6 likely will be for the generation of consoles only AFTER Series X and PS5. It's not hard to understand what this all means it's still undecided/plans not 100% set.

@tomassi Natively it isn't ever gonna happen. Same as Witcher 3 no first person mode.

There is a PC mod for third person but it isn't that great which says quite a bit for all the statements they originally said why it's first person only.

It does suck for those that cannot handle first person physically without getting sick, but it is what it is not every game is for everyone.

@Toypop dang, I'm in the same boat. I was wary Xbox and PC (RTX 3080) due to Sony involvement with this game. Soooooo glad I picked up disc PS5 copy due all the good reviews of haptics too. If performance mode is that bad at 1440p60fps I'll just play it once and eBay it. Though the added gyro seems like another good extra too!

Yeah PlayStation digital games in USA as soon as you preorder and hit download it's yours no refunds unless a CP2077 situation, Xbox digital at least we get a chance at refund. I feel like I got lucky with my choose.

@KaijuKaiser this is correct "not every game can be a masterpiece". Some people really need to hear that and let it sink in. Most games aren't and that is perfectly fine.

@Robinsad yeah this is my worry too. Dead Space 1 is one of my favorite horror games in the PS360 gen. If not much changed besides graphics it could fall flat due to that or come out swinging hard like The Last of Us Part 1 remake did on PS5. I'm hoping for the later.

@4kgk2 no worries, it's hard to tell these days.

@kyleforrester87 exactly my feelings for the majority of games in 2022 on all platforms.

@Sequel yeah the one thing we can do for this is wait for sale or if you're a diehard horror fan, give it a shot sooner to make sure we keep getting these type of games. If all we had was Resident Evil that would be sad. At least we have Dead Space and Silent Hill 2 remakes coming to test the waters for more games.

I just read John at Digital Foundry saying he really enjoyed this game more than most reviewers. I'm gonna bite the bullet and keep my PS5 preorder.

@4kgk2 Far from a non PlayStation fan. TLoU Part 1 is one of my favorite games of all time. Incredible pacing something Ragnarök blatantly struggles with especially in Ironwood. Still a fun game for a one time playthrough. But let's be real here it's not in the same realm of overall quality for pacing, to story, and build up of gow2018 (or for that matter the pacing of God of War 3) or TLoU Part 1.

I think you have your agenda pointed at the wrong person here.

@Shad361 Well, so what gives with Ragnaröks' scores then as it is one of the big AAA Sony games this year? I'm really curious as it has the same gameplay as the first and worse story that drags out for way too long for it's welcome. In my opinion if The Collisto Protocol is the real Dead Space 4 (with all it's issues in this review) and Ragnarok is a bloated gow2018 (though it's hard extensively here to talk about without spoiling) why they aren't about the same score? At the very least it sounds The Collisto Protocol story doesn't drag out and is mostly all about atmosphere and combat, then at least we get a harder difficulty in January plus new game plus.

It's hard to take some big reviewer websites seriously these days, as it seems they are reviews for people that just like summer blockbusters.

Still scratching my head as to how almost universally Elden Ring, Pentiment and Xenoblade Chronicles 3 as hardcore as they are came close to the reviews they deserved in the midst of some of these over scored AAA games in 2022.

Even though it has a wire, if Chet says it's crazy good then probably good enough for me. Might have to finish up RE4 soon and put my Oculus Quest 2 on sale in prep for PSVR2.

@CheekyMonkey gotcha I see. Seems silly and really who cares as long as we get DualSense and 60fps/120fps modes on PS5 for free.

@KingPev In reality I'd like to have DualSense features then a 4k60fps mode & "a less than 4k" 120fps mode on the PS5 version. That would be worth the $15 the current version is on sale for I just wish Bethesda would say if this new version will have that or not.

@CheekyMonkey Yep seems a little unclear.

Though the way I read it if you have last gen version you do get the full current gen + next gen version for free. The only people that have to pay extra is for GamePass subscribers to get the full version.

@Sam-Bridges that's the assumption next gen consoles will get a 60fps mode and well PC. Good times for everyone!

@Omnistalgic it would be nice, if Sony fits the bill (of course) like DeS and BB. Give me Elden Ring multiplatform soon and in a few years give me another wild Mizakai Sony exclusive. Cannot get enough.

@Total_Weirdo nope not even close. Microsoft had marketing rights for the game for Xbox until recently. It was said by Jeff Grub that Bamco/From turned down Xbox for marketing moving forward "as they didn't want to appear to be for one platform over another".

It's a last gen crafted game that was built for multiplatform. End of story, has nothing to do with being a Sony exclusive (timed nor fully).

Honestly a good move, unless it's something like Demon's Souls/Bloodborne where Sony owns the IP then it shouldn't be exclusive. Loss of profits and less people get to play.

@get2sammyb thank you for doing this. As I have been a PC and Xbox gamer primarily until now the DualSense has been a revelation to use in Cold War, Astro's Playroom, and Demon's Souls. I hope you add Demon's Souls to this list as it is a pretty good implementation. Also thank you for WRC9 info as a huge Dirt Rally 2.0 fan I am very eager to pick it up on PS5.

Everyone else dont sleep on this as it is definitely NOT another gimmick. It's a huge reason to get the PS5 over PC, Xbox, or Switch versions of game for just the controller alone. It's a huge reason to get a PS5 as soon as possible really.
After I played Cold War Multiplayer with a DualSense at 120fps it shocked me even as a PC gamer how far consoles have come.
