Bring back crunch. The industry is largely bloated with lazy, inefficient and untalented people. Just like every other industry.
COVID is more like copevid at this point. There's no reason at all why that should still be effecting the industry. Let alone all of the copium that was hugged about...
Xbox fans: "we want a handheld"
Phil: " we heard you and today we announce a controller that you can link to a TV or mobile and stream your gamepass games to it, using Xplay and the power of the cloud"
Microsoft are the ultimate monkeys paw
Has the console industry been in this position before? I've given you examples of comparatively weaker specs or at worst on par. If that's not enough then agree to disagree.
Then how were games made quicker last gen and the gen before that, if not using lower Res or whatever, assets? Going...
The Wii wasn't an upgrade from a GameCube. If a console keeps the same level of power across a generation, it's a downgrade.
How will it not? One of the big complaints of why games take longer is because of high-res 4k textures. It's not crippling performance. You're presuming that 4k is must...
I know you had a dig at pc players and steam sales but you're right in what you say. Why pay £70 for a slop game that lectures me on modern day bullshit, when I can escape into a fantasy world for <£5 that will last 40 hours?
I picked up AtomRPG for £10, slapped some mods on it (for free) and...
This gen has been a cop out across the industry and wider entertainment complex. It's like everyone is waiting for an event; recession, crash, social change, and we're just treading water until it happens.
Or, the industry really is out of ideas, doesn't have the talent to create new ideas, and...
The Wii. It sold gangbusters.
1080p@120fps with RT and every game at ultra settings. There is a difference between 1080p and 4k, a noticeable difference. Not as noticeable as half price hardware though.
Nintendo seem to be doing aight.
Because this direction is unsustainable, so sayeth everyone. Hardware is too expensive, games cost too much to make, games take too long to make. Because of that, companies won't take risks, making safe, bland, expensive games that miss the tick-box by five years.
Tell me you never saw a proper E3 without telling me.
E3 magic was live, on stage cringe, mistakes and big reveals in front of a live audience. Three days of massive games and a week of excitement before, followed by a week of list wars, console slap fights and non-stop excitement.
If this...
They were both graphical showcases and good games. The Order is one of my fave from last gen. Crysis was a graphical showcase and still was great. Unreal, doom, Quake, half-life, they all pushed the graphical boundary and were good games.
I agree that we don't need the power. Is it really worth...
Yeah R+C looks and plays incredible. Horizon, while stunning, is more impressive on PS4 because of how old that machine is, if that makes sense.
Three years in and only one game has shown what the PS5 can do? It ain't enough, chief. Not for £450. Call me tight but 🤷♂️
