I think it's kinda fucked up that Sony is charging $70 for the next-gen patch for Demon's Souls. I'll just stick with the PS3 version.
 
If someone didn't like yesterday showcase they should just need to stop gaming tbh.
Showcase was decent. Had its ups and downs. To say somebody DID NOT like it would be kind of odd.

The blogs that dropped after it were the real letdown or disappointment. Showcase itself was fine.

Sooo... No Silent Hills.
We're not due another event are we? Maybe just a tear down or UI run-through, but not another trailer show?

Nice... it says at the end they are going to share more on both consoles, games, and "so much more" leading to launch... i know this is a given but it's nice to see it in print. Really looking forward to seeing a bunch of enhanced BC and stuff personally.
Wish it was all on the table before pre-orders.

It's more than likely 8K models, as you can see skin details beyond anything we've seen so far on any platform. With PS5's smart Geometry Engines and per frame polygon budget, you can throw whatever on screen and it'll only render according to the targeted budget. 3080/3090 are miles ahead of PS5's power, but they're forced to calculate multiple times more details that are unnecessary, forcing the overall used assets to be gimped.

You need to hammer that into those PC guys' heads real hard to understand it. It's not all about raw power, but how you direct it/use it. In short, be NIMBLE!

It won't be 8k textures. It will be tiled textures applied over the base materials by the games shaders to apply micro details such as skin pores, fabric weaves etc. Pretty common these days.
 
Well they claim the single player campaign is as long as Halo 4 and 5 combined..

So whether it's "GAAS" or not, they are claiming the budget is going to a shit ton of content right in the main package.

Companies are making GAAS games with or without subs. It's the nature of the business; many of them are still high quality games that offer a lot without paying extra, that's how a game should be judged IMO. If Sony sold $10 Samurai pajamas for Ghosts of Tsushima I seriously wouldn't give 2 shits.
Sure. As I said, let's see if Halo Infinite gaas is just a "coincidence" or the actual format that most MS games will take, as they know they wont sell as many units and they need to become stable income platforms instead. My take wasn't about how gaas are only made on Gamepass (like, wtf) it was on about Gamepass as an ideal platform for them.
Again, this do not discredit the "big budget" thing, but honestly does little to give me hope in general terms.

Thats $90 USD for a game. Thats fucking crazy.

Even after tax, I only would pay ~ $75 for a $69.99 game.

And aren't games now €79.99 in EU? Thats $95 USD, which is insane.

Fuck cross gen, I don't care if someone doesn't want to pay for a PS5, that's a they problem.

Sony fucked up with this I hope the games are fire with a big step up.
Simple way of looking at. Horizon probably costs $100m to make. You only release it to Ps5 early in the lifecycle, you aint even making even. Im sure it will look great on PS5. I dont think PS4 is holding it much back, look at games like RDR2, Last of us 2 etc They look amazing on base PS4. Horizon Zero Dawn was a great game that looked fantastic as well. But t had many flaws. Imagine all the improvements they will make on it, even with a PS4 version being out there. Then add dual sense, ray tracing, no load times, better draw distance etc etc

Enemies in Demon Souls are going to laugh at your puny bow as they filet-O-fish yo'ass.

Don't worry, though. I'll invade your world and show you the ropes.

i very much doubt you will ever get the chance to fight me as i am sure there are certain checkpoints where you are safe from being invaded. I will still be at the fist boss dying over and over again, for the first 6 months after release.

The game prices are 100% annoying. Hoping they allow digital game sharing like they did with PS4. Will go halves with my brother on the games we both want.

Well I think a big budget non-GAAS is totally feasible for something like Gamepass too. I think Sony would make a killing on a day-one sub service. The idea is to increase spending GAAS or not IMO.

Wasn't accusing you of saying GAAS only exists on gamepass, probably worded poorly.

Also where even is the confirmation that Halo is GAAS?

Humm all these high costs and prices for Sonys games, i have a feeling they are herding us towards something.

Just a hunch but i suspect they have something up their sleeve.

According to MS, they aren't making that much profit from Gamepass, which is temporary for sure but still, feels like they are putting themself in a situation where multiplayer/microtransactions oriented games are just so much better to develop for that service, especially considering their installed base is shit compared to Sony's.
But hey, if those exclusives will be also big single player games with no pay walls and stuff, good for everyone. Right now, Gears 5 didn't convince me on that.
Edit: Halo isn't called exactly gaas, but they have a "ten years plan" for that game. Which basically means gaas. Not a bad thing by itself anyway, just that sometimes it really, really is.
