From what I hear from people actually able to play the game, it’s better than 3.

Something like:

2 > 4 > 1 > 3 > Pre-Sequel

DF is who I’m waiting on, but from what I’m hearing, they didn’t send reviewer codes so it’s all delayed and that’s never a good sign.

How is it on console though? Better on PS5 or Xbox?

Picked it up on Saturday, finally! For some reason it’s been super hard to find!

I don’t need to personally be an engineer to call out a train wreck when I see one…

No, the PS5 has a standard expansion slot.

Yup. On the PS5, you can add standard M2 storage to increase the usable internal space.

On the Xbox you have to use the Seagate or WD plug.

You can, but you can’t play games from it, it would be storage only. You’d have to move it to internal memory to play it.

Current gen games can’t be played from standard external storage. You could put the game there, but it would have to be moved to internal memory to play it.

BC games would work fine, but not current gen.

Applies to both PS5 and Xbox both.

825GB is the raw space, not usable space.

You lose some to formatting and file structure, you lose more to system reserved space for updates and what not.

Out of the box, a 1 TB PS5 has 848 GB available.

So if you’re starting with 825 GB that means you’re likely to only have, what? 700 GB free? Less?

Some games push 100 GB, so max of 7 of those not counting DLC and what not?

Digital only with reduced space? What’s the worst that could happen? 🤔

“Buy a bigger SSD!”

jordanlund, 2 miesiące temu do games w Today’s game consoles are historically overpriced

You can’t compare current generations to previous because starting with the PS3/Xbox 360 the generations became artificially extended.

With no no new impending hardware, there’s no impetus to reduce prices and clear stock.

The OG Xbox 360 launched with a 20 GB hard drive (2005). That got a price cut when the 60 GB version was announced (2008) and that coincided with the much more expensive “Elite” with 120 GB. Similarly that had a price cut when the 250 GB version came out in 2009.

We aren’t currently seeing models be replaced like this.

I had one, I had the tape drive for the Commodore 64 as well.

The Supercharger back in the day wasn’t that expensive, about $70 or the price of 2 games, because you had to supply your own tape player, the supercharger just connected to it with a wire.

I feel the opposite when I hear people complain about load times… “We want you to buy our SSD so your game will boot in 11 seconds instead of 19 seconds!”

Son, let me tell you about loading games from casette tape.

You’d start it loading, get up and go have dinner with the family. After 30 minutes, maybe it would be done. Maybe.

Maybe it hit an error 5 minutes after you walked away and now you need to re-wind and try again.
