Gamepass is a dope idea, I don't own an xbox1 but i would pay for a service like that on PlayStation. Even if they started gamepass late this gen, that means it will only be more refined for the next gen. PlayStation took this gen by default because of Microsoft's horrible launch, ( kinect & saying you would need to be online 24/7) But they have fixed that. I predict next gen xbox will be back on top like last gen with the 360. PlayStation has gotten cocky and gotten lazy imo, besides a few games like bloodbourne & ratchet & clank they are focusing too much on story and cut scenes and not making much that's innovative. they really aren't anywhere close to being pro consumer at this point. Also they are absolutely trash at making multiplayer games. I think this gen was a hard lesson for Microsoft but its for the better. Live & learn Microsoft, live & learn.

Since you saying PS took this gen by default because of X1 horrible launch and PS has gotten cocky and lazy ( the most ridiculous statement of the year by far ) tell us why Wii U died that had "gameplay" games instead of "movies" and was all about "innovation" ?

Also for the record, X360 wasnt on top last generation, Wii was. And aside that PS3 surpassed X360 in the very end despite its myriad of problems, if MS couldnt win a seriously hurted Sony and PS3 with so many problems from hardware to software to Sony as a company .. how the hell you think theyll win next-gen ? You guys are crazy

I don't know if MS is desperate, but the Xbox fans surely are, I've never in my whole life have ever seen a group of people so violent, salty, butthurt, sad and losers like the Xbox fans in this board.

Is why I left the system and I'm leaving the forum, I refuse to coexist with such deplorable people.

You missing sheep reactions !

As for X1, is the synonym of desperation this generation.

They are clearly desperate for years now. I did a big analysis back in the day when MS reversed alot of their stupid policies and i mentioned the reason why this happened. The pre-orders were low when PS4s were high. Then the very first year we had X1 price cuts, bundle offers, online offers, coupon offers left and right ... that was the biggest sign something is really wrong with the system.... Then that continued with systems lack of exclusives ... the biggest slap of them all.

They tried to camouflaz all this desperation with clever marketing and approach like "for the gamers" and stupid craps like that only lems beleiving just to have as minimal backlash as possible. And then ... "the most powerful console" x1x released with no exclusives. First they copied Nintendo by offering gimmick controls because nintendo won last generation big time because of them ... then tried to take the SONY slogan of " most powerful console " with X1X because PS4 was winning by then ...

DESPERATION is synonym to MS and X1 this generation.

I would be if it wasnt as pricey because i know i would have it as a secondary console for few Nintendo exclusives like Mario/Zelda and maybe Bayonetta, maybe few hidden indie like diamonds along the way, thats it. Also the fact that Nintendo dumping their consoles every generation since N64 era is a big minus to me makes me uncertain for its future. And last but no least im not interested about games with exactly same core experience like Kart/Smash/Tennis/Party etc, games ive played 20 years ago and feel exactly the same to be .. so im left with very very few options to justify 350+ ... For example in 2018 the only game i found interesting is Octopath and thats an indie like game, nothing else literally.

If Nintendo ever sort all those problems out i wouldnt mind to spend money for a Switch. But will they ? If i only knew.

I halfway hope that MS and Sony will go the hybrid route too, because it makes too much sense. Consoles are never that powerful anyways.

But I also don't want them to copy Nintendo yet again... so... I'm of two minds, there.

If Sony ever follow the Switch route will be a slap in the face. Imagine for PS5 to get a release and be as powerful as PS4 pro and we getting for another 5-6 years the exact same graphics, physics, performances etc till 2026 or something. No thanks. I want games to look better, to be bigger and offer more each generation. If PS4 would have been a hybrid couldnt be more powerful than PS3 ... noooo way. Sony better continue what they do and if they want to try once again into handheld market, release a handheld.

I feel like you're going to practically get that situation you want to avoid anyway. I'm not expecting that much of a jump at all. But I get what you're saying.

Let's say the jumps remain immediately noticeable. Don't forget that modular GPUs are a thing. It would be less powerful in handheld mode than a next gen system, for sure, but there are ways to make a handheld more powerful when docked. So you could see a Switch like system that is not a generation behind in power.

The games wouldn't have to run in 4k in handheld mode anyways to make them look fantastic.

Maybe it will make sense when nano tech be viable to do so. But for now, no thanks.

Switch cant even play games properly ( as far as performances go). For example, it relies in cel shaded graphics to be able to provide big worlds because its weak and even with those kind of graphics, it lands at 30fps and performances issues ( Zelda )... And its a game supposed to be a Wii U game, a 2012 console. We are into 2018 ...

Now imagine to try to put in there games like God of War ... the compromises would be unreal to do that. I dont want this to happen with future Sony consoles. No way !

For those who haven't heard... https://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/uncharted-apos-nathan-drake-isn-090200515.html

Uncharted games do not feature a health meter, they feature a luck meter. Drake is not a bullet sponge, he just runs out of luck before someone pops his ass to the game over screen.

I actually think this is a pretty neat concept that should be explored more, and implemented with purpose, but what really caught me was Amy Hennig talking about it...

"As Amy Hennig, director of the first three Uncharted games explained: "True! That was the original intention (to stay more aligned with the spirit and tone of the films we were homaging.)"

Staying more aligned with the spirit and tone of the films we were homaging...

That sentence right there is why I worry about video games future and why I don't look at uncharted games in the same light as say Bayonetta or super meat boy... This is one of the top writers of one of the most successful developers (yes I know she is no longer with ND) admitting that their scope is to chase the aesthetics of a film.... Not for gameplay purposes or to better serve their player systems, but to align more with chasing the feeling of watching Indiana Jones...

Games are sooooooo much more than films when a smart developer is squarely focused on building aesthetics around air tight gameplay. Our hobby transcends film, TV, and all other forms because it is interactive and can be so much more to the human experience than simply a film...

I like devs that make a game first and a film last.

Another dissing into cinematic games.

Since when aiming for film aesthetics = no gameplay ? This nosense of "whatever looks like a movie = no gameplay " needs to stop someday, it got old. Uncharted has all kind of gameplay elements to make the game work as intended, that of a movie like. Personally i prefer to play a game like Uncharted 2 than watch 3 films together. Guess why .. because its far more than a movie as you sound. Period.

As for cinematic games in general, im so glad there are such type of engaging games that offer more than button smashing to get to next level and repeat, like intriquing stories, emotions and many more things youll never see in a game like Bayonetta because its other kind of experience. If you dont like them , dont play them. Dissing them makes you look like hater because those games are optional. Are not bad by any means, its just not for you.

Let them for people like me who like all kind of different experiences including cinematic games and you go play only Zelda and Bayonetta, Kart and Smash for "gameplay" only experiences. Problem solved.

Ps: Thank god not everyone in the industry following Nintendo steps because we would never have games like Uncharted 2 , Last of Us, God of War 4, Prophecy Indigo, MGS 1, Witcher 3, Resident Evil 7 and many many more games that had a blast with in the past. Now i cant wait for Spiderman that looks and plays better than a "movie" and ofcourse Cyberpunk 2077.

Should i mention red dead redemption 2 and that im eager to see what will GTA6 look like next-gen ? You people can shit your pants with mario kart 25 and smash 35 instead, pure great and different gameplay, problem solved ( oh wait, is actually gameplay any better than it was 20 years ago or its one of the same with few modes and additions left and right... hmm, i wonder ... what the gameplay only games have to offer that better when the core experience is exactly the same for 20 years now ? Better graphics and physics, frames and resolutions the biggest differences right ? Hmm, weird ha ? )

@AzatiS: Lol "but you started it wah wah".

It's System Wars, everyone is a dick.

To blame the poor Sheep, who just get curbstomped 99% of the time (basically any time a new Mario, Zelda, Metroid, Pokemon or Smash isn't just out), is particularly hilarious ;)

I wish we had a search button on our personal forum posts to make you understand what i mean with examples.

Sheep and lems were picking on Sony and PS3 like maniacs. Week after week, month after month, year after year. Constantly, again and again ... and now " Oh cows this " or " Oh X guy is idiot because he has something negative to say about Nintendo "... This is the funniest thing in SW forum for few years now. Personally speaking.

But when they playing the victims at the same time ... is way and beyond. My opinion of course. And of course im not talking about pure trolls having fun.

@BenjaminBanklin: There's a difference between cheering for something doing well, and cheering for something not doing as well. You cows seem to get more pleasure out of the fact that there are no Xbox games in the top 10 in one particular country, instead of cheering the fact that a PS game is.

But hey, at least we know the usual cow addage of "they don't like their console, they just hate yours" is still as true as ever. Lmao.

I think all the craps started last generation with Sheep laughing left and right for Sony for Wii winning every year the sales war and lems were talking every short of crap for PS3 till the very end of last generation. Epic BS constantly for years. Hell, sheep had the nerve to pick on PS4 with the infamous "PS4 has no games" over and over because they had somewhat strong releases in a single year. Why ? Because they got carried away because of PS3 era thats why i was warning them over and over that this will backfire.

Who started all this ? You tell me ! And as usual in this board ( and in others in fact ), now you playing the victims and how cows behaving when in fact cows this generation havent said not even 1/1000 of what sheep and lems said last generation despite destroying everyone, literally. ( Wii U dead, X1 half or lower sales ).

Playing the victims is the funniest thing in this board when you all started all this excessive drama in the first place, sheep and lems combined. Then when you getting back some of your own shit even in a mannered way you cant handle it, you going mad mode, feeling insulted, going angry, making it personal and then playing the victims ... haha. Funny shit only in System wars.
