    Ah so you mean games that are more like interactive stories kinda? What games would you use as an example for that? Cuz I don't understood characterizing God of War and Last of Us as walking simulators. I thought they were both insanely fun as well as having an engrossing story/good cutscenes.

    I honestly never really liked Assassin's Creed. Story is cool but they're super repetitive to me, especially the combat.

    I've legit never understood the console war. Now we have cross play, the only real difference for me is exclusives and neither xbox or ps have anything that drastic. I'll probably see what bundles are offered and I'll go from there.

    bs. Microsoft bought a lot of studios during this generation to prepare for the upcoming one so they probably will have pretty competitive catalogue of games.
    All of these are f---in' walking simulators minus Spider-Man, but Spider-Man is pretty mediocre game with a s-----y plot. The only saving grace of this game is combat and a little bit of traversal and I'm saying all of this as a PS4 owner, who bought it for these exclusives.

    With the way things are going when it comes to sony exclusives I might pass on both since I upgraded my PC. Otherwise I would probably get PS5.

    The 360 was definitely a game changer no pun intended for Microsoft, but even then it wasn't actually the market leader and had large issues of its own that generation.

    The way everyone I know has moved on from XBox is kinda funny. :emoji_laughing:
    like it’s actually insane how little anyone cares for that console at all now. 360 Days were amazing tho. Guess all things die

    Good. Xbox as a console brand has been useless for years

    I’m glad I bought the PS5. Pretty much everything worth playing on Xbox is already on PC and I already have a decent rig. PlayStation has much better exclusives, and only some of which come to PC which takes forever to happen.

    I think I would keep both if the Ps5 pro is real. But in all honesty I'd rather this be fake news
    To keep the cost down. I'm not sure if even next year the Ps5 will get a price cut, but in order to keep a hypothetical Ps5 pro at the same price they'd have to sell it as digital only with an optional disc drive for an extra added/optional cost.

    Yeah I don't see how much better it could possibly be. I'm guessing they just add more storage. Not sure of the point of a detachable disc drive? I just added 2TB storage to my PS5. It only comes with like 800GB out of the box

    Nope. That's sounds fishy.When all Europe was in lock down the internet never was down or with problems. PS5 and Xbox wouldn't cause shortages of bandwidth.

    Xbox is edging close to 800. Ps5 going up as we post, hitting 900.
    I feel you on that bruddah, but it’s a hustle that don’t incorporate someone getting shot, killed, and end up OD’ing at least. I’m not mad at it, but the unfair aspect of it is really shameful to people who are willing to pay normal price, but limited stock pressures them to pay 40 - 60% > instead.
