Their SSD prices dropped significantly this past year when they allowed another company to start making them. But it’s still nowhere near as cheap as PS5’s SSD expansion which isn’t proprietary at all.
Just finished FFXVI finally. Loved it. I’d probably rank it somewhere in the middle of the Final Fantasy games I’ve played. The ending was a bit mundane, but the rest of the story was really well done and the combat got better and better as the game progressed.
Not sure what to play next, FFII, The Last of Us Part II, Returnal, Rogue Legacy 2. Might get back on Halo Infinite when they introduce Firefight finally, but I’m really not expecting much from that game.
MS has indicated that they will honor contracts and some promises were made to get their acquisitions through.
But everything has either been vague or outright said will be console exclusive. Bethesda is the earliest example of this, and we’ll probably see more later.
PS mostly makes their console exclusives in house. Even Spider-Man (the prime example people point to) was always intended to be console exclusive by Marvel and is only as good as it is because of Playstation funding.
Oh, as far as video, absolutely. If it leaves one you wait for it to come back on another. But for video games, I just assume once it’s gone, it won’t come back again any time soon. I think there’s kind of different expectations.
Are people really going to wait? I thought the whole point was that either the service has to pay for the on-loan games, or if it’s their own product it encourages you to just go buy it if you liked it so much.
I know I only got it because I couldn’t get an SX and it’s my secondary console. I kinda regretted it, but it really doesn’t get a lot of use. And probably won’t until Fable comes out.
When you say PS Plus, do you mean the Essentials tier which is (was) equivalent to Gold or the other tiers?
For the record, I think PS Plus Premium and Extra are great (until the price hike). The vast majority of time when I want to play a game day-1, it’s not something that’s even on GamePass. So their day-1 stuff means nothing to me.
But also, Essentials has given me enough to play I could just never run out of games.
