Series S is a huge kick in the nuts, but I don't think Sony is bothered.

The rebooted Prince of Persia was sitting on a cliffhanger. And we're all sitting here through the years waiting for a follow up.
So, instead let's just throw some money away and remake Sands of Time. Smart. No, not really. |

CD and 32X were add-ons to the Genesis, not separate consoles. Sega did plan for a standalone 32x, but it never came to fruition. Dreamcast was a separate console, but it was a sucessor to the Saturn. t. Bought a Dreamcast at launch, still remember the date, 9/9/99. Too bad Sega messed it up, especially by going with CD or GD instead of DVD. PS2 was helped by people buying it for the DVD player feature, getting two devices at once etc. |

the two cheap x box varriants feel like gimmicks much like the 32x and cd.
I suppose I should have said the Saturm as the 3rd, the kicker for me on the $299 model is its all digital and only has 512 gb storage. Supposedly theyre going to make add on storage cartridges that just plug in for added storage, or you can use an external hard drive..but even if you have a external drive already that cost money and suddenly the cheap version that sacrifices 4k and other features to be cheaper is costing more money. If games didnt take so much space up and require room for patches it wouldnt be an issue but again 512gb for base storage in 2020/21 & beyond is a joke. |

A joke I'm totally going with. The biggest issue the last few console generations was the growing cost of jumping into the next gen. Typically me and others would trade up in year 2 down the line. This would be the second time I got a new console at launch ever because of this variant. So I'm liking the joke.

* Sony is currently denying rumors of them scaling back production of PS5 consoles due to custom chip supply issues. Rumor originated from Bloomberg who stated Sony was scaling back production by as much as 4 million consoles due to not being able to hit their target goal of chip production needed for the console's launch.
https://www.destructoid.com/stories/...5-603551.phtml * According to Activision, Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1 + 2 recently broke a Tony Hawk series record by becoming the fastest game to reach 1 million sales in series history. https://twitter.com/ATVI_AB/status/1305568653920931841 * According to a report from website TechRaptor, the reason why Ubisoft changed the name of their upcoming action adventure game Gods & Monsters to Immortals Fenyx Rising was due to beverage company Monster Energy had filed an opposition to Ubisoft's trademark for Gods & Monsters. Ubisoft decided it would be easier on their end to just change the name of their game instead of having to deal with a potentially costly legal battle and delays to keep the game's original name. https://techraptor.net/gaming/news/g...monster-energy https://www.destructoid.com/stories/...k-603623.phtml |

For those interested in the Xbox Series S model, Microsoft stated game install sizes for that model will be around 30% smaller than the more powerful Series X model due to the lack of needing 4K assets for game downloads.
Although Microsoft's expectations completely revolves around developers actually putting in the effort and care to offer separate graphical assets packs and not going the lazy route of only offering 4K assets for digital game downloads. Quote:

Be getting the Series X. The price point is pretty good considering what's under the hood.

Well, yeah. PC is obviously safe. Just anything going forward will be exclusive to Xbox if you're a console player.

After the way ESV performed on PS3 I would never get another one of their games on a Sony system anyways. No big loss for me. PC it is.

* For those interested in Spider-Man: Miles Morales' Ultimate Edition for PS5, the game will require around 105 GB of free space. For some comparison, the PS5 internal SSD holds around 825 GB usable space in total.
https://www.destructoid.com/stories/...f-604312.phtml * Next DLC fighter for Super Smash Bros Ultimate is currently rumored to be getting announced on October 4th based on a recent ad leak. https://www.destructoid.com/stories/...r-604311.phtml * According to CD Projket RED, Cyberpunk 2077's campaign will be "slightly shorter" in length than The Witcher 3 was. Main reason is due to The Witcher 3's long length being the main complaint from players about the game and wanting more players to be able to finish Cyperpubk 2077 than they did for The Witcher 3. https://clips.twitch.tv/SoftDifferentPorcupinePanicVis https://www.destructoid.com/stories/...s-604304.phtml |

ugh - agree with El Vaq...... that seems to be the only negative decision I've heard so far. While Witcher does get overwhelming at a certain point (looking at you land of the Bloody Baron), the side quests were 100% unnecessary, but also so well fleshed out they damn near didn't feel like side-quests.
I see myself replaying it multiple times with varied builds anyway. |
