Game Pass only became a consideration for me after Sony changed its stance on exclusives. Without exclusives, there's nothing special about the PlayStation ecosystem. Xbox doesn't have exclusives either, so they're somewhat even on that front now. That's when Game Pass became a key factor.
Jo raasta pasand hai le lo, ab destination to same hai 🤷‍♂️ :ROFLMAO:



Okay, then get a physical copy for $70. Don't 'give' Sony your money 🤣
Why accept that ridiculous price tag in the first place? Even more so when paying $60 is a rarity depending on your platform of choice 🤷‍♂️

Tsushima next-gen upgrade was $10. Forbidden West next-gen upgrade was basically $20 ($80 for Digital Deluxe). Why was another $10 an issue here? Would've been just one day of not ordering from Burger King 🤣

Would've gladly paid $80 had it not been a cross-gen game from an incapable studio. Plus, I already know it's not an exclusive and will be on PC soon enough, so that devalues it further due to regional pricing on Steam (and Dex Pass 🤣)

Traversal and melee look more polished compared to the last showing. Looks like it'll play better than Tank of War, at least 🤷‍♂️:LOL:

Here's hoping Necrokiller can play it by August 🤣

The rim lighting on Aloy in the PS5 version looks awkward and unnatural. Only makes sense in games that have plenty of darker regions with no real-time GI in place. The PS4 version is better off without it.

Aside from the differences in the overall lighting, water (and most likely LoD), this is looking like a pretty faithful version of the game. Only meaningful gain on the PS5 is a performance mode that targets 60fps.

The graphics pipeline for last-gen games involved a lot of async compute to make up for weaker jaguar cpus. Cross-gen couldn't die sooner. But but...games are scalable. This is Necrokiller's cue for discussiooon 🤣

Making "most" of the hardware which is already generations behind and is fundamentally limited in terms of game design? LMAOOOOO

Wants developers to abandon 2013 console, in the name of "game design", which is more powerful than a 2017 mobile hardware and champions this outdated hardware for "gameplay" while criticizing the more powerful hardware for being held back.

That's one approach :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

But in reality, we all know its all about the giraaafixxxx for CerebralTiger, which is why this broken thinking makes no sense at all 🤷‍♂️

It seems that a lot of work has put into the further improving the already superb enemy designs. I am a big big fan of the original horizon game and I just cant wait for 18th FEB...

    I dont think games have looked any better since 2019 onwards and they are performing worse and worse. Game developers have really dropped the ball.

    So while Playing Control, I found a journal which said that a bathroom is missing in Islamabad Beurue of Control. With Alan Wake and Control seems to be connected worlds. Even our city is in the universe as well. No wonder those Trail 5 and Trail 6 are haunted.
    did you know you can see @NaNoW credited in the game too ? :p

    What is peoples obsession with Battle Royale genre. 6 minutes to find a match, 3 minutes to setup a match, 2 minutes to land, 10 minutes for scavanging maybe 2 3 gunfigts and its over. Multiplayer landscape is looking absolute dogshit.
    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.

    I usually stay away from animes. Vinland saga changed the way i look at my life, and my experiences within. I recommend every breathing human being to watch this animated masterpiece at least once fromstart to finish.
    After I watched it, I never felt like i watched a show. It was a friggin journey. I got way too attached to Thorfinn and seeing him grow up and find himself and get rid of all the negativity inside of him was just pure bliss.

    " Both PS5 and Series X have an unlocked frame-rate here, with performance that generally lies between 30fps and 45fps. That makes for a stuttering and inconsistent output in general play, no matter what you are doing at any given time."

    With how great cod warzone has translated onto mobile. Mainstream Consoles have lost its value even further. Maybe console gaming was associated with TVs and how TV is not the primary source of media consumption anymore, consoles will lose its 200 million core audiences even further.
