Console Warz, 2020

[AlexM]

Right now I'm pretty much buying the PS5 for the demons souls remake. It's like my favorite series. Hopefully there will be a bloodborne2 or something  too.

With the way MS is going this gen it will be interesting to see how many console exclusives end up on PC as well.

 

That said PS5 is sold out everywhere I've looked so I guess I probably wont be playing it until next year.

Wow, I would have never expected them to ride the meme train... and that would be a cool looking fridge btw.

Its made me want an xbox kudos to them

This generation my first feeling is 'why should I care' and then 'microsoft made the right choices'. That's about it, probably not getting either console for now.

Besides comedic value, that's actually a great way to put its size into perspective

I'd say it looks about a third smaller than I'd originally assumed

I was all about the 360 but then switched to PS4 for last gen, this time around am switching back to Xbox for the Series X (as I don't need to pay for Gamepass Ultimate but would have to buy a PS Plus subscription). I will get both though, probably just not going to get a PS5 until later next year when some of the big exclusives start to come out (Horizon ZD maybe), and it should be cheaper by that time. It's strange that neither console has any big hitters in terms of exclusives for launch, but am looking forward to playing Valhalla next week and COD the following weekend, and might also pick up Ghostrunner.

Well that’s unexpected: Xbox running PS2 titles?

And the benchmarks began. Ppl laughting at how, sometimes, xsx has worse graphics or framerates. Oh well, spec war is ludicrous as always.

Has anyone managed to get a PS5?

[-HP-]

Friend of mine did. Went to his place this weekend, played 15 minutes of that game to test the controller, Astro something. Crashed twice, in 15 minutes! Wtf.

Pretty good when it's running though, and that controller feels amazine.

Spiderman and CoD looks and feels great with raytracing.

Huh, Jeff from giantbomb has been saying his ps5 is crashing a lot too. Sony even sent a replacement and he said it made no difference..

I guess this is the limited beta release? Everything is served undercooked these days...

Yeah I nabbed one a few weeks back. Been playing Ghosts of Tsushima. Bought a 65" 4k TV to play it on too, its pretty incredible!

Not had any crashes so far, thankfully. Astro's Playroom is a fun little game too. The console feels really slick overall, I'm really enjoying it.

wow, what a build
