    Discussion 2022 might go down as the worst year ever for Xbox 1st party game release

    That's hilarious because Halo Infinite still died like a few weeks after that and it was supposed to be their main GaaS for the next 10 years according to MS themselves. :LOL: MS has so much money they think they can succeed just by being there and buying people left and right. They think rules...

    PC Apex Legends hits new all-time Steam concurrent players count

    Have fun during your week off, Bernd. It was a strange suicide since you're a "console peasant" yourself as a Series X owner iirc (and I own a gaming PC, so I'm technically a member of the PCMR). :LOL: I didn't know you were also cheerleading for PC during your free time as a Xbor Ambassador...

    PC Apex Legends hits new all-time Steam concurrent players count

    And remember that if you upgrade to a 3090 Ti, you may play that 3 year old GaaS in 8K with better shadows ! Well worth $3000 in my book.

    Yes, that's a shitty take if there's ever been one. Professional troll maybe... No real industry professional would say such a dumb thing. Sony invented tons of techs over the years. Animations in TLOU 2 were by far the most advanced in any game. Everybody agrees on that. Sony made the...

    They would have more than 20 active members if they hadn't banned everybody... I don't know, GAF used to be the major video game forum, it still has some kind of relevancy I guess. If the contract says you must advertise everywhere, I don't see why the guy couldn't do it both on Youtube and on...

    You can deny all you want. Receipts were given in all those cases and they were proven true. There are a lot of other instances of MS being caught astroturfing anyway. They pay people to advertise everywhere. People doing it on GAF are also doing it on Twitter and elsewhere, it's the same...

    The problem is they actually got caught multiple times in the past, so you don't have to believe anything, it already happened multiple times. They've been known for astroturfing and bribe tactics : - MS was caught astroturfing for Internet Explorer ...

    CDPR releases one game every 10 years and so does Rockstar. Those are the only ones who still release technically advanced AAA games outside of Sony. But it's really really rare they release anything 2k / ea / Ubi are focused on GaaS and microtransactions... Capcom does remasters / remakes (so...

    Discussion For those that hate Sony, What made you feel the way you do about them?

    You can't tell me the name of a single technically advanced AAA PC game released in 2022 (hint : there's none) and you tell me there are better looking games somewhere than HFW. You understand how idiotic that sounds? Of course HFW and Ragnarok are the most advanced, or at least HFW is...

    Discussion For those that hate Sony, What made you feel the way you do about them?

    Ah ah. At least there's Starfield coming next year. With all the studios MS bought we should finally get a few good looking games at some point, even with MS subpar studio management skills. But they're definitely getting scarce.

    Discussion For those that hate Sony, What made you feel the way you do about them?

    Obviously, never said the opposite. But the non technical aspects which make a great game can't be the reason why you upgrade your GPU or boast about your PC specs. Those upgrades are specifically about better graphics and latest technically advanced games which... there's none in 2022 outside...

    Discussion For those that hate Sony, What made you feel the way you do about them?

    Older games are generally not the reason you buy a new GPU... My point is AAA production is getting more scarce year after year. GaaS took over. For 2022 there's not a single game which could justify buying a new GPU since, like we just agreed, there was NO technically advanced AAA game released...

    Discussion For those that hate Sony, What made you feel the way you do about them?

    Ok, so we agree there's none in 2022. So we're talking about imaginary games. Fine. Why should I buy a new GPU to play games that don't exist? Older games do exist but you hardly need a 3090 or 4099 to run them either. It doesn't bring much on older games. So we're back to square one.

    Discussion For those that hate Sony, What made you feel the way you do about them?

    Of course ancient AAA games still are AAA of the past. But releasing bad graphics and bad running games in 2022 isn't what AAA is about. And great graphics are why you bought a shiny GPU. If graphics are bad, what's the point? You could play those bad looking games the same with an inferior GPU.

    Here comes another meltdown again. PC gamers mostly play indies and shitty games like Rocket League. Look at the top games played on Steam, it's an absolute disaster with management games and trash indies... None of those games need a beefy GPU. That's the funny PC core gamer paradox. You...

    They play specs. But in their head, the imaginary games are really beautiful. It's a very poor looking and running game to be called AAA. Compare it to DS on PS5, it looks one gen behind, it's hard to call that mess AAA. Historically, From Software is more a AA dev.

    For a guy who's so sure of having chosen the "superior" option, you certainly look insecure. There's something fishy here. Why going in full meltdown mode? Isn't jerking off with your specs enough to make you happy anymore? Maybe it's time to upgrade again to feel better. And of course Sony...

    Maybe it's time to go for a walk or something before going full meltdown like that ? At least you're on topic as a Sony hater. Of course other devs can make AAA. But fact is there are very few quality AAA games still released these days. This year ? 1 outside of HFW and Ragnarok (2 Sony AAA...

    Because you're on a nerds forum, like GAF is too. They're like the extreme 1% of the population, yes those people will go beyond sanity, and that's fine, I like them too, I like you too, but that's still silly. PS5 games run at 60 fps by the way, so not sure what you're saying. Sony games are...
