On the computer there definitely seems to be some weirdness I think because it’s cross platform. Initially I was playing with my two friends who were on PS and we were almost never matched up wit other PC players.

Even now they seem to sort people by console, we are almost always with other PS players unless another guy we play with joins on his Xbox

oh maybe i'll try SMG's, i've only been using assault rifles as that's historically what i usually main when i played black ops 1 and 2.

but when you fall, you have to look for weapons anyway like fortnite so i feel like i tend to end up with junk (or nothing, ppl seem to drop and already have a loadout and i just have a pistol?!)

i'm too noob at warzone

i'd be ok with just being paired up with console. i think people playing on PC would crush me even more than the beating i get

Good week to be a Yakuza fan.

Yesterday at Playstation's State of Play they announced Yakuza Ishin being released for the first time outside Japan.

Then Sega announced two more games today.

Yakuza Gaiden - Follows Kiryu between the end Yakuza 6 and start of 8. Traditional Yakuza action beat-em-up gameplay.

Yakuza 8 - Follows Ichiban and the return of Kiryu. Same RPG style as Yakuza 7.

Great.. More Japanese games..

When I was younger they connected with me more, nowadays I find most of them just not connecting with me from a story perspective anymore.

I swear the way Microsoft is buying up all these American devs PS will pretty much become pretty much a Japanese exclusives only platform in the future

I listen to a few gaming podcasts and they made some good points in a recent one

Both MS and Sony are caring less and less about physical hardware, the money is in subscription based services. It’s pretty clear in a decade from now places like gamestop etc. will be done and in order to play the newest releases you’re either gonna be paying $100+ a pop for a game, or you’re going to be on a $20 a month subscription service

Yeah, it's the Tokyo Game Show this week so big announcements the last two days from Sega, Capcom, etc.

Nintendo and Sony did their own announcements earlier in the week.

Nothing major from Microsoft that I liked.









These were the games that interested me the most aside from the Yakuza announcements.

We'll finally be getting some good games for the PS5 later this year into 2023.

Based on upcoming release schedules, I expect God of War to be GOTY 2022 and Zelda to be GOTY 2023.

So I guess I shouldn't invest in Gamestop eh?

Anything exciting for 2023 on PS5 that isn't a Japanese game?

I've been a diehard PS guy from the jump but the games coming out on Xbox seem more appealing to me, might have to pull the trigger and sell this damn thing next year and switch up, and no I don't care to have both consoles, I barely play the PS5 as it is.

I doubt anything beats Elden Ring for GOTY this year

Zelda is the only game that interests me there. I used to love Japanese games, especially RPGs. They're so cringy now though.

Same boat. Back in the day I used to love Japanese RPGs. Played the FF7 remake recently and was thinking to myself, how the fuck did I like this crap? My GF was laughing at me during the dialog moments, ended up quitting the game before endgame.

Had enough grunts, "ughhs" and "hmmmmms" in the cut scenes, I find the writing in Japanese games to be so completely childish at this age.

The current Forza (Horizons) is more arcadey. You'll want to wait for the next mainline Forza game, which I think comes out next year.

I love Elden Ring as a Soulsborne veteran don't get me wrong, but if the upcoming GOW builds upon the first one I'm pretty confident GOW will win. I think the only thing that Elden Ring exceeds in is the open world/exploration feature of the game, but everything else for the most part played like the usual Souls games before it.

Of course, this is just my opinion and is all speculation until GOW actually releases and I have it in my hands. I already preordered it, so I just hope Best Buy delivers it on time. Don't preorder anything on Amazon, you'll get it days later speaking from experience.

I would probably swap it out for a Xbox Series X to be honest if you're not into Japanese made games. Most exclusive games to PS5 will be created by a Japanese company aside from the occasional releases by Sony - upcoming ones like Spider Man 2, God of War, etc. Everything else will have a Xbox port at launch or eventually be released on it.

I think you'd enjoy Game Pass as well on Xbox. You can get a year's worth of subscription for like $30 following the steps on Redflagdeals.

With Microsoft buying Bethesda, you'll get all their new games for free and it also extends to PC. Starfield looks pretty good and it'll be included with Game Pass and probably all future Beneatha releases. This is in addition to the giant catalog of good games already on Game Pass - Mass Effect, Skyrim, Hades, Forza, Halo, etc.

Since Microsoft is in the middle of acquiring Activision, games like Diablo 4 will also be released on Game Pass and other future games like Call of Duty, Overwatch, etc, will most likely make it there as well. Not bad for a reasonable subscription fee.

Yeah I'm just basing it on the feedback and reactions I see, not my personal opinions. I actually own GOW but haven't gotten around to playing it yet... Guess I should check it out huh! Except for a couple weeks of Death Stranding, I haven't really touched any games since Elden Ring. Tried Spiderman but it was a buggy mess.

I said it before, but Game Pass pretty much makes PS5 a flat out non factor.

Especially if you have gaming PC, because Sony is releasing their titles on PC now anyway. And with a modern Nvidia card, they'll run and look MUCH better than on PS5, thanks to DLSS and DLDSR. Minus the buggy shit releases like Spiderman - you'll have to wait a bit longer for those to get fixed

So speaking from experience since I have both consoles.

99% of my time so far has been on the Xbox thanks to Game Pass. I even play some of the games on my PC. It's been amazing and I'm glad that more and more games that are coming out that I would've bought are being included. Deathloop is coming to Game Pass and I kind of wanted to try that out when it first came out, now I can and don't have to pay a dollar since I'm already subbed.

Meanwhile on the PS5 side, the only actual PS5 game I've played has been Demon Souls and that was at launch, lol. Luckily there are some exclusive games coming out soon so I'll actually get more use out of it going into 2023. To be fair though, I did buy my PS5 with the expectation that it would be a secondary console for titles that were exclusive to Sony at launch, so it hasn't bothered me.. but I can see how people that bought a PS5 at launch could feel some regret.

This generation, if I had to pick just one console to recommend to folks, I would go with the Xbox. Too much value there to ignore, and just hope that the PS5 exclusive games get ported after 1-2 years. No one ever thought Sony staples like GOW or Horizon would make it to PC, but it did.

Honestly PC is the way to go.. You get Game Pass for much cheaper (in HK it's about $3.70 USD per month, with no prepurchase or anything). You get the Sony games if you want. All XBOX exclusives are released on the same day on Game Pass PC. Actually some games on Game Pass are PC only, like Death Stranding. Also you can get anything released on Epic or Steam or anywhere else. You get better scaling with DLSS and DSR, or even FSR if you're on AMD.

Oh and the GPU market is crashing

The only console I'd consider getting is the Switch, but they desperately need one with upgraded hardware.

I've got both consoles too, but the only one I've played was the ps5 but that was just to play the two spiderman games, haven't used either console at all

Also I totally missed my email to purchase the steam deck, someone mentioned getting theirs, so I had to look thru my steam email and I got my prompt back in June :/ although I probably wouldn't have played on that either

I'm really only playing gacha games on my phone these days

I play so rarely these days that I really only play high rated AAA games when I do fire up my PS5.

Something like GamePass would have been amazing if it were around when I was a kid. Closest thing we had was Sega Channel
