I think for PS5 people are leaning towards Spider-man, Kena and Godfall those look really good to me. If I was getting a Xbox Series X this year I would probably get The Medium and Scorn

are they definitely day1?
if fact, which games are DAY 1 with 100% certainty on each console?
can we make a list?
also, Vampire Bloodlines 2 is no longer a 2020 release title

Ultimately I’m hoping for a realistic shooter, openworld ish style, jungle/forest, city setting with quality MP. Cyberpunk, next gen version might just do it.

I’m honestly most excited for third party titles like 2K, Watchdogs, Valhalla, and Cyberpunk. Although Cyberpunk might be a wait for the upgrade or true next gen version, we’ll see. Even still all of these games look great and like they play fantastic. I’m getting hyped for the known not the hoped for.

Yep I left Bloodlines out. These are confirmed for 2020 barring any delays

Yakuza 7, The Medium, Scorn, Ascent and Gears Tactics are all out day 1,
those should be plenty until Cyberpunk releases two weeks later.
The only thing I'm afraid of is Cyberpunk slipping too.
hold on, what do you mean 2020??
we are talking about DAY 1 for each console.
Do we have such a list?

Xbox for cross fire. Remedy games make some of the best single player games and I am interested in the MP. Don't care for open world superhero games, especially if it just DLC/Reskin. I will get PS5 for Demon Souls remake and Ratchet and clank.

Yeah i remember 1 of the best launch lineup games but it didn't help the system sell much and Sega almost went bankrupt and now Sega no longer in the hardware game lol

I don't see any console warring in my reply, just stating facts.
If they are not interested in selling their console, good for them, and good for me.
But did they actually say they don't care about selling consoles? I see this statement being thrown around a lot, yet microsoft is putting multiple consoles on the market.
The thread ( and many other threads), are speaking about which console would you choose, so the answer will always be the same, I never said I am not interested in microsoft games though, actually I like some of them, and I would buy an Xbox too if I couldn't play their games on PC.

Ironically, the PS4 had one of the worse exclusive launch line up, but sold a lot.

Yeah the point is you can't tell much by launch titles how well the console will sell.

Globally 20 million cases and 700k have died, just that. Sorry I couldn’t resist and if you could punch me I’d let you, lol!
Went to the GameStop (EB back then I think?) midnight release for the Dreamcast. Sonic, Ready to Rumble, NFL2k, and the crazy controller that was from the future... I was in heaven. Got Soul Calibur afterwards, it was a god like launch lineup.
On paper they should, and some or even most probably will, but I’m sure it’ll be give and take across certain titles and not always so cut and dry. Im also not a tech or graphics whore so I don’t care about power. Also, I do care about Sony single player exclusives so I’m PS5 day one regardless of the weak launch lineups. I always buy consoles at launch, I love it and can’t help it even though there’s rarely great software.

True, PS5 does seem to focus more on SP games which is great. I am looking forward to Demon Souls (in my top 3 games of 7th generation), Ratchet and Clank, God of war , and possibly Nioh 3.

I’ll buy the biggest edition on Xbox to support the effort , plus I prefer the gamepad and just to get rid of the annoying save system On PlayStation.Yakuza 7 being there to make the XSX catalogue seem bigger makes me chuckle.
I’ll take the regular on PS5 later (for the collection)

Not just the launch, but the first year for these new consoles. Xbox one had Titanfall, Forza Horizon 2, Sunset Overdrive, Ryse, Killer Instinct, Halo MCC, Dead Rising 3 and more. The launch window for the new consoles doesn't seem to be impressive at all. For xbox series, I am legitly only excited for Crossfire, Halo Infinite and maybe if we are lucky Hell blade for the first year. The list isn't too much different for me for the PS5 as well.

I loved Ryse and DR3 I got those day one with my XB1. I'd take Spider-man over both though

No CyberPunk?? Main reason I'm picking up Series X, but I'm grabbing both consoles anyway, regardless.

The more I look at these lists the more I think I'm buying a console without first party games.

It’s not that they don’t care about selling consoles, it’s that consoles used to be the only indicator of install base, which meant more software sales.
MS doesn’t need to rely on one box for their install base base anymore, they trounced Playstation, the addition of PC to their console business solidified that.
As for your statements about MS selling “multiple console”, sure, that’s their entire message. Choices, play wherever you want.
To be honest they're both weak AF. I have a Ps4 Pro and One X and have 0 incentive to get a next gen system for a "new" experience. Spiderman isn't new, let's be real. Halo is delayed. GTA Online enhancement is 2021. Cyberpunk next gen upgade is 2021. Madden and NBA 2K playing their normal games showing no next gen footage. No word when next gen enhancements will be made for backwards compat games.
This next gen launch will be the roughest yet.

I think it's time to start wondering just why these systems are coming out this year. The game lineups are not great, and developers are struggling thanks to the flu. Lots of games/features are getting pushed back. The economy is also ruined, with millions unemployed and entire sectors getting taken out, again because of the flu. It's already August and we don't even have a price or release date on either, probably because of those issues.
Why not just push it back 6 months and launch in spring 2021? Do we really need a 4K Madden to simulate a season that probably won't be played anyway? Does MS really want to launch a brand new console with The Medium as the headline? Let's be realistic here.

Flight Simulator is the game I think looks amazing. I have bought every console since NES, even a few odd ones like virtual boy, dreamcast, sega cd. I had a PS4 pro half this gen but sold it for another xbox as my boys got into video games hitting that age.
So now instead of buying each console I have to pick two of the same. We were on xbox because of minecraft. I like xbox but they did me dirty this gen. No 1st part games period. Nothing on the horizon but lies. Halo once upon a time was awesome not anymore. The delay just shows nothings changed with xbox. New Fable game would be a system seller but today info leaks its just getting started or has not even started yet.
Games sell consoles. Consoles don't sell games.
I bought a Switch on release. I played Splatoon 2 for 3-4 months and it did not get touched for 2 years. My boys 5-7 now wanted nothing to do with Switch. Pokemon comes out and my kids fight over the Switch. Animal crossing comes out and my kids fight over it. Now I have 3x Switch's and Animal crossing games.
And xbox game pass is not for me. Its nice to get a month to play a game but having to pay it every month is expensive. And they are removing 12 month gold subs. I don't need to pay $10-$15 a month to play online for a console.
This online crap needs to stop. One of the biggest scams. It ruins owning every console. I would buy both if I didn't have to pay for online for the next 7 years on each. And now Nintendo got in on the scam. I refuse to pay online for 3 different consoles when I already pay a fortune for my internet. If Xbox, Sony, Nintendo want to charge for online then they should provide my online service so I can cut off Spectrum.

What time is it?
Spider Man is really the only exciting game on that list. I've already got Yakuza pre-ordered on PS4. I'm going to try really hard to stay away from EA, Activision and Ubisoft next generation so as much as I want to try Valhalla, that's going to be a no from me dog.

In that case, neither. Already got a PS4, so I'll play Yakuza 7 there.

XSX + Cyberpunk for me.
I am also picking up a PS5 whenever PES 2021 is available for it.

This is probably the best PlayStation launch Sony has had in decades, wow.
I suspect they have one more announcement for launch and that would be tlou2 factions stand alone. Not to mention timed cod content, gonna be great.
Any bets on which launch list has the higher metacritic average ?

“The only next-gen games confirmed to be 60 fps on console at launch (Holiday 2020) are :
Spider-Man: Miles Morales (PS5)
Godfall (PS5)
Deathloop (PS5)
The other 60/120 fps games are basically PS4 or Xbox One games (cross-gen titles)“
wow I didn’t know that. idc for Godfall but Deathloop will be dope so will Miles. I’d still be just as excited for them if they were 30fps as well

Dude, I swear I thought Stray looked so freaking good. It's just the two of man! Stray was one of the best looking games at either show, hands down! That's a next gen game right there! The art direction is on point! Geometry is on point! Lighting, is that RT?!?! On point! Wait is that a Cat?!?! On point! Gameplay... no idea
but you play as a cat in a world run by robots!

That's a shit list if that is true.
I'll just stick with my PC until the consoles have anything worthwhile. If I was forced to choose I guess I'd pick Xbox with how great it's been being able to jump back and forth between my PC and XboneX, but that list sure doesn't have anything that looks exciting.

And Stalker 2? Well Stalker is one of my most played games on the PC, so thats a must.

I will choose... to wait. The only game interesting to me in that list is Yakuza 7 but I can wait to play it, have tons of games I want to play on the current gen (and in the previous ones). Will jump into the new consoles when something really interesting comes out. Last gen I was waiting until Bloodborne was launched for instance.

Disappointing launch titles for both platforms.
Thank god both consoles will deliver better performance while running cooler and quieter playing existing and cross-gen titles, otherwise both of them would be pointless to get them day since most of the titles will be available day 1 on PC
