I have suddenly noticed a plethora of negative media campaign against Sony & PS5 

& suddenly a surge in positive on everything M$ & Xbox since the Bethesda acquisition news broke 

 

like Sony is being unreasonable about something & M$ has already become the leading first party content provider & GamesPass is already the de facto subscription for anything Gaming 

 

& no not twitter or YouTube shills......most of the media publishers aswell 

 

has anybody else noticed the same 

Still plenty of things we don’t know about ps5. Sony still to release that info .. plus 70$/80€ games price ... charging for remaster ... providing no path to upgrade for existing spiderman buyers ....negative coverage is bound to happen...

$70/80€ games is not Sony alone 

 

all game publishers will release the games at the same price 

M$ just hasn’t confirmed it yet 

 

was there ever a time where publishers published at different prices 

it’s an industry constant 

 

 

& Apart from the UI what info has Sony not shared about PS5?!?

Except MS will release all first party games on Gamepass day 1, so effective cost is 0 if you have a sub already, particularly with the 35 bucks all access scheme. There are bound to be comparisons here.

Control/505/remedy got the same backlash.. 

 

backward compatibility that’s a big thing..no info..

 

It’s not industry standard.. it’s anti consumer policy... plenty of developers are offering free upgrades... selling remastered but not offering any option to existing owners to upgrade.. instead buying it with 70$ bundle ..

 

.cdpr has said cyberpunk will be priced 60$..

Sony just opened the floodgates for all 3rd party developed to price there game 70..

This is just negative publicity...

I guess u don’t agree with that... that’s why u don’t understand the negative publicity 

 

 

edit - PS4 controller not working with ps5 while Xbox continues support ... before you say next gen Experiance ... mm and hfw are coming to PS4 without these features already

I like how it comes and goes in waves, or like a pendulum that keeps swinging. Can't wait for next-gen to launch and get this sh*t over with.

Sony is also being an a**hole for no reason. No details on UI, BC, storage expansion, whether HDD will be allowed for archival, etc. 

I like that MS is lighting fire under Sony's a*s. I think we can expect a proper GP alternative in next 6-12 months ie. PS5, PS4 game downloads etc. Yes PS now exists but it'll be more publicised and available in most countries. 

Sony has shown 17 games running directly on PS5, MS has shown 2 on XSX (one current gen). Don't think Sony cares, their priority will always be games first (like Nintendo) and rest of the fluff later.

Basically, everything that hsk_colossus said...

- MS is giving away triple AAA games on game pass DAY 1, Sony is increasing price to 70$, opening the flood gates for all 3rd party devs.

- MS providing full BC, Sony being a bitch about it.

- MS has been on top of their game with providing proper info, and being up front about stuff. Sony has been too hush-hush about everything, being vague, and often mis-leading and then back tracking on their promises, case in point, cross-gen games.

- No direct upgrade path for Spiderman, while MS is giving away upgraded/enhanced games for free (not sure).

- Controller difference between MS and Sony.

- Horizon: Forbidden West on ps4 news has been particularly bad for them and their PR.

 

MS has won the messaging war in the past few days.

apart from Doom E getting added to the GamesPass in immediate future 

 

what has this brought on the table for launch Window 

 

or even till Starfield release for that matter 

no one has even seen what it is yet?!?

 

 

 

Sony was not the first publisher to announce $70 games lol

others were 

 

Sony has a stronger line up of launch window games than even PS3/4 

 

Xbox still basically has nothing 

 

 

 

I don’t really get what has changed all of a sudden that tips the favour in Xbox’s corner 

Haha .. it’s like running in circles with you ... u won’t understand why there is negative press

When you are paying 500 dollars/50k for a console, you're not just looking at the "launch window" but the value over the years.

Yes & what value do you see all of a sudden in Xbox 

 

till you actually see those Bethesda games?!?

They have 23 studios, I'm sure they are capable of releasing 1 game each the complete gen? That's 23 exclusives at 0 extra cost. Even if people buy and resell at an effective cost of 10 bucks per game, that's 230 dollars minimum saved.

Again, my own preference is PS5 because I'm a JRPG guy, but I can see why more people are interested in series X

Hence I have concluded that the idea of getting stuff for free is so huge that it doesn’t even matter what that content is or when it will be made available 

 

with Amazon & Google entering & trying to tap in 

I feel this going to happen even more 

 

 

This is the last Console gen & traditional way for games

might aswell stick with PS4pro & buy PS5 only when you have done the back log 

It’s not free but it’s not 70$ either ... people have different preferences ... choose which ever console suits ur needs..
