These games generate more than enough money yearly to pay employees properly to do the work they'd rather offload onto AI, it's nothing more than greed.
They've been dragging the franchise through the dirt for years now, AI just says I couldn't be bothered. The golden age period of COD4 to BOII is long gone, I'm just glad the servers are still up on PS3.
@Dr_ENT I only got the 5 Pro in April after holding out on the PS4 Pro so I hope you're right. I say they extend it's cycle as long as possible to make the upgrade worth the leap. Make the standard console "Pro" spec worthy out the gate and make the handheld the lower spec choice.
@TrollOfWar All correct points but nobody is holding a gun to these devs heads and making UE5 compulsory. Death Stranding 2 is a prime example of a studio developing their own engine, doubling down on a single ecosystem and then technically knocking it out of the park. It's too convenient to default to UE5 this gen; let's see more artistry and individuality in the industry again. Make a profit yes, but prioritise quality first and foremost.
@TrollOfWar it could result in that for sure, my only worry are the devs continuing to hold back the PS5 even more after finally beginning to release from the shackles of the PS4. Always great to have a game run 60fps but you want it looking half decent too, especially if you just shelled out for a PS5 Pro.
As long as they don't allow the Switch 2 and Series S releases to botch the PS5 edition in any way I don't see a problem with it, go and make your money Square Enix!
Sony need to stop giving the incentive away to owning a PlayStation; give them nothing and look to Xbox as what happens if you fold. Nintendo are going from strength to strength (dastardly policies and all) because they stubbornly back themselves. You want to play a Nintendo game - you need a Nintendo console, once you go the Xbox route there's no need in having one in the first place!

It's Resident Evil... They're sold on name alone by this point, usually warranted too.

Long may it continue, I've been rocking with them since Christmas '96.

Re: The Real Star of Gran Turismo 7's Free PS5, PS4 Update Is a 312km/h Minivan
Having a few "oddball" cars has always been what GT is about, I'm just glad to finally see a new track.
They still need to add the option to sell unused car parts though, that or lower the price of some cars still costing 20,000,000.

Re: PS2 Set to Remain King of Consoles as Nintendo Switch Sales Start to Stall
I didn't think any console would come close again after Sony put up those numbers, Nintendo just might do it (albeit I hope not lol)...
