Fair enough, but I think he just got it confused. If you buy a used game disc from say CeX, there's no easy way to know which version your disc belongs to. I ran into the same problem with my Shadow of Mordor playthrough on PS4 ages back. I finished the game and sold it off. Bought it months back to get Plat, but got a different region one by mistake. I didn't know the region of my first playthrough (still don't to this day).

So, I am an Xbot now?

Haan, but both are issues right? The lack of interoperability of saves across regions? As well as the inability to easily migrate save from PS4 to PS5?

Not out in the open. But there may be closet supporters you know.

He's not referring to you. Taking a dig at others.

DP.

Wtf man ? Every day you and radicle have to post something to take a dig at Xbox. Honestly, this thread is active only because of the two of you, but don't you seriously get bored posting 50 different shades of the same news everyday? I mean, it takes some level of dedication to do this. I remember the times when Zodka used to do something similar for Xbox, but these days you and radicle have become a dangeous duo of sorts. Liking each other's posts, upvoting each other without fail, always there to support the other. Such dedication man. Half the guys here would wish they get partners as supportive as you've been to each other. Couple goals ❤️

You can go for an ITX build to reduce the footprint. There are ways to building a small PC that can roughly match the footprint of a PS5 and still be way more powerful. But you'll have to shell a decent amount on cooling and the right case. I am not a big fan of laptops for gaming because of thermal constraints, throttling and non upgradeability of parts. With Steam's big picture mode, it's fairly easy to play on the big screen. Not as intuitive as consoles, but it's getting there. PC navigation only using gamepad would be a god-send for living room setups. By that logic, a PC is the only gaming machine that you'd ever need. It's your preference, and others have their own. This is just baiting.

Totally. Both XSX and PS5 make more sense now than they ever did in the past. You are looking at a Ryzen 3600 + RTX 2060/2070 combination if you want to match the console specs and these two alone will easily set you back by 70-80k.

Preowned from Gameloot for 3k. .

Until the GPU prices stabilize, PC is out of the realm of possibility for most people. Even worse than the current shortages for consoles. I can still sell my 2 year old graphics card for the price that I bought if for if not more right now.

The xbox controller works fine with a 500 bucks TP link adapter I got off Amazon. I had to use a usb extension cable and ensure that it was on the TV table. As long as the dongle is on my line of sight, it works fine. Plugging it to the side/top/front of your PC cabinet will definitely lead to issues if you keep your desktop tucked in somwehere.

I agree. I wish I had started it on PC with the mods. But XSX is easier to jump into because of Quick Resume.

Damn. I am going to find it difficult to find someone to co-op Borderlands on PC

PC has mods that upscale textures

Finished Borderlands 1 last week. Did a solo run, really enjoyed the gunplay but the world felt really empty by today's standards. Yet to do the DLC. Not sure whether I'll get to it or jump on to Borderlands 2. Also finished It Takes Two with wifey. This game is special ❤️ Got GamePass Ultimate and started Prey. 2 hours in and the game's atmosphere is bollocks. Reminds me of Bioshock. And planning to resume my 97 hour save of Witcher 3 and hopefully finish the main story this time around ?

May not be Denuvo. Other Arkane games have had similar issues on PC.

Why would they launch a native PS5 port now? They are freaking acquired by MS They released the PS4 version because they announced the game prior to the acquisition.

Doesn't MS own the Psychonauts IP and DoubleFine? How does it even matter? I am not a big fan of games as a subscription model myself. But the monetization debate is inconclusive at best since it's more a matter of how the game developers/publishers get paid for putting things day1 on gamepass vs how many copies it would have sold otherwise.

It Takes Two's a gem. Just finished it over this weekend. Do play with a close friend or your SO.

Better to link it up if you are calling out that he's a hypocrite. And again, as you have realized, not the right content for this thread.

Do you guys even read the articles before baiting here?

Did you even read the article? He's calling out that exclusivity of established franchises is not right - including the possibility of Elder Scrolls VI being an Xbox exclusive. It's not a Sony specific debate.

But Flight Simulator did not mandate it. The question is whether internet connection is required for offline play. If yes, then your comparison is absurd. You can play flight simulator in offline mode (with reduced texture detail etc, but its possible). Don't shoehorn MS vs Sony argument where it doesnt apply man ?

Agree. Smart Delivery will not automatically make you get a native release for free. Its supposed to make sense only for cross-gen games. GTA V is being marketed as a new version altogether, so there's that
