This would be fine if Xbox Cloud Gaming were available on Switch and PlayStation.
Honestly the future is dumb streaming boxes. I don’t like it but there it is.
Sony is behind the curve. If Nintendo is their only competition, PlayStation 5 will see another price increase and PlayStation 6, if it happens, will price itself out of the market. Nintendo gamers don’t care.
Sony should have made their own GamePass years ago, and as a peace offering, Microsoft and Sony should have offered each other’s streaming service. That would extend hardware out another year or two as people have access to more games.
Disagree with everything you said. The future is not dumb streaming boxes. And game passes are a terrible model. NOBODY is excited about streaming a video game abs playing with shitty latency and compression.
So you also like it? You disagree with everything I said… including the part where I said I don’t like it? It sounds like you just want to be antagonistic. I’m not the future — being mean to me on social media won’t stop the future from happening. It just makes you slightly less of a good person.
The reason streaming boxes are the future in gaming is the same reason they are in movies and music. In movies and music, the common players don’t support physical media anymore — they’re too small. How do you get a tape, CD, or vinyl record into an iPhone? You stream it. Same with games. Even now, vs 20 years ago, physical releases are getting rarer and rarer. This generation, Xbox and PlayStation have digital-only models, and a lot of games are digital-only.
The compression is a trade-off and it exists in movie and music streaming as well. Latency will be mitigated by more servers.
And it’s actually already here. There are “Smart” TVs out there that play Xbox games. Via Cloud Gaming. I know guys out in the sticks who do cloud gaming. The myth that it’s only going to work in NYC, LA, and Chicago hasn’t ever been true. Seems like every town has servers now. And the fiber and cable running everywhere is good enough to solve most of the latency. Of course, there will always be latency… hell, I can’t catch fish in Animal Crossing if I’m using a wired controller, I have to take the damn Switch out of the dock and play handheld, but if I do that, I can catch the 5-star rarity fish every time, first try.
You don’t have to like it. I sure don’t. But, how’s refusing to accept things you don’t like working out for you? You wish us a good president yet, or do you actually like the one we have (in the US)? Your wishes in tech are about as effective… same as mine.
So you also like it? You disagree with everything I said… including the part where I said I don’t like it? It sounds like you just want to be antagonistic.
If you’re deliberately misinterpreting what they said like that, you’re the one being antagonistic.
I recommend saving the money and checking out the Finals which has better destruction. Has 3 v 3 objective mode too now for those who hated getting third partied.
Not likely at all, this restructuring was made to give NCL more control over NoA, Pritchard is there to run the ship, the new CEO of NoA, Story Shibata, is the one you should be looking at.
Never heard of him, but I’d like to research what he’s up to, especially since, based upon what you’re saying… something seems wrong in your eyes. I had some hope, also knowing that likely things would stay the same.
I’m not sure if they’re concerned with Saturo Shibata directly, it’s just that under Reggie, Nintendo of America pushed hard for stuff like free Wii Sports and cheaper prices (which worked great, making the Wii a huge success), while the Nintendo Japan was of the opinion that nothing should ever be given away for free.
Under Bowser, Nintendo of America fell in line behind Japan. Culminating in stuff like the welcome tour for the Nintendo Switch 2, something that is just a tech demo of the device you just spent $400+ on, costing $10.
Having Saturo Shibata as CEO, it seems this will get worse, not better, since Nintendo Japan is excerting more control over NoA.
Point of order: Wii Sports was not free. The price of the game was added to the price of the Wii, but since you couldn't get a Wii without Wii Sports, people just assumed that was the base price.
I run a 7800X3D on and X870 mobo, 64gb ram and an RTX3090, and couldn’t run it at my native 7680x2160 resolution and have a playable framerate. It was fine at 3840x1080, but randomly crashed to desktop (at 1/4 my normal resolution, that I can even play Star Citizen at.)
I refunded it after 3 hours. This was before Randy’s ridiculous response to the criticism. I was planning on buying again later when it’s fixed, but now I’m not so sure. The man is his own worst enemy.
He’s a bell end. He’s always been a bell end. I had the dubious pleasure of meeting him when I was working as a games press outfit’s tech monkey over a decade ago at Gamescom in Cologne.
Every other word out of his mouth was a business buzzword, he’s smarmy and smug, my skin crawled the whole time he was present.
It looks like he’s as high on his own farts now as he was back then.
I just finished it coop. Really nice looking game with fun combat both melee and guns. The plot went off the rails, and the game was rather short but I really enjoyed the zombie fighting part and sightseeing in LA.
If you made an edit I guess it doesn’t update for other servers - viewing these comments from a lemm.ee account in Voyager and it’s still the original…
I’m excited to see if they turn it into a FPS or a Sokoban-type game, since we learned from FF7R that apparently you can radically change the core gameplay mechanic but still call your game a “remake” somehow
