<<Console Wars>> PS5 vs. XSX

[jerzey devil]

WTF are you willing to bet with son? Certainly not my rig.

lol

I said most of you don’t have rigs as powerful as the series X. Congratulations on being one of the few that do.

Agreed. Those are not killer apps.

I am sitting on three PS5 games already (Miles Morales, Demon's Souls, and Returnal). Ratchet and Clank coming in hard and fast in a month or so.

Meanwhile you got Madmick bragging about XBox One games.. lol

Agreed. The Series X has jack shit. Doesn’t make the PS5 games any better though. They’re mediocre games that will be forgotten once the real games start coming out.

You haven't played them how can you call them mediocre games? Projecting much cause you're an xbox fanboy??? lol

Demon's Souls was amazing and I am having a blast with Returnal. Haven't touched Miles Morales yet but played the Spiderman game on PS5 and it was just as awesome. So I expect the same shit for Miles Morales game...

 

[Madmick]

Not much substance in the past few pages.

As far as most gamers PCs not being more powerful than the XSX (or the PS5), that is true, at least for now, we can say without controversy or speculation. Currently fewer than 4% (1 out of 25) PC gamers are in possession of this level of processing power.

I played the original Demons Souls on the PS3. Haven’t played the others. Name me one single launch game from any console that still held up by the halfway point of a console’s life cycle. I don’t have to play them to know they’ll soon be forgettable. They’re basically tech demos. Like Ryse: Son of Rome.

I’d be willing to bet the Series X is more powerful than most of these Sony fans gaming PC’s. But we’re going to hear the same thing all generation about how there’s no point in buying an Xbox when you can just play them on PC. Just like now all of a sudden Bethesda sucks (“But I was saying that before MS bought Zenimax”. Bullshit).

Sure, there are some that probably have a nice gaming PC, a Switch, and a PS5 but that’s way too much money to be spending on this hobby imo. I have kids FFS.

Going with the consoles you get all 3 sets of exclusives they offer for a reasonable price (the same as a decent gaming PC).

Yeah, I’ve got a Series X, a Switch and a PS5. Would a killer gaming PC be nice? Yeah, of course. Would it be a lot more than a Series X? Of course.

Nintendo is known for memorable launch titles whenever they release a console.

I will grant you that PS/XBox console launches aren't known for their launch titles but I have stated multiple times in here before that PS5 is the exception. This launch lineup on PS5 is the best I've seen in eons. And this is coming from someone who always bought consoles at launch but never expected any great games until much later in the console life cycle.

I've stated as such here:

Sure, but if you're talking about killer apps. None of those games really meet that high standard. There's only really a handful that do. I'm talking about Halo or Gears of War in their heyday, or GTA when it was a playstation exclusive, TLOU, Uncharted, etc. Those types of heavy hitters are killer apps.

Last time I checked PS5 is one of the hottest items out there. People are still paying double or more for a PS5.

Does it even need heavy hitters on launch? That's not even the norm. PS consoles have never released with heavy hitters anyway and they've always sold well on launch.

And as i've stated Demon's Souls, Miles Morales, and Returnal may not be killer apps but they are highly rated. It's the best launch lineup ever for any PS consoles IMO.

edit: correction - DS and MM are killer app games.

None of that has anything to do with what a killer app is. Put the shield down. I'm not trying to shit on Playstation, or downplay it's success or anything. I'm just telling you what a killer app is, since you seemed to be challenging the guy who stated that those games were not killer apps. That's all.

Dont think you can even find a 3090 FE. I bet my PC shits on yours pound for pound lol.

“Demon’s Souls is a mediocre game!” <Lmaoo>

I don't even know why i agreed to you saying these games aren't killer apps.

Demon Soul's Remake is a storied gaming franchise. Miles Morales is a follow up to one of the best selling PS4 games ever. Both are considered killer apps IMO.

I am not seeing sales figures yet but come next year or the following year we will see great sales results from both of these games i think. The main problem is getting PS5 consoles to the consumers...

And Spiderman is bigger than many of the franchises he's listed. Its selling insane compared to them aswell....

 

[TribalDrumz]

Never played demons souls , dark souls any souls . Might have to check them out

 

[jerzey devil]

“Demon’s Souls is a mediocre game!” <Lmaoo>

It was a good game 12 years ago. Acting like a remake of a 12 year old game is a killer app is fanboy nonsense. They didn’t do too much extra to it like they did with the FF7 remake.

That’s because there isn’t much else available right now.

To be fair FF7R was a sequel disguised as a remake.

That’s true. Because I don’t have a gaming PC. And P4P I bet you paid more for your PC than all 3 consoles combined.
