Care to share some of these side by side comparisons?

I haven’t seen any.
You haven't? So why are people assuming that Xbox has some advantage?
Don't just go by numbers on a sheet.

Maybe there will be one game in ten with a tiny resolution difference but I don't see this being anything significant.

Like wasn't AC Valhalla at 60fps being hyped on XSX and people were saying PS5 couldn't do it.... guess what!

Sounds like tales from ass, believe me when I say they are the same, and don’t question it.

Sounds like you are making more assumptions than anyone else Is.

I'm not, I'm saying you're making assumptions even though we have seen nothing but an indie running on XSX. We have seen plenty running on PS5.

Lets wait a few weeks and see. I bet the differences are pretty small to nothing.

Small to nothing is not the same as identical.

You said they were identical as if it was a fact instead of an opinion, which is why I was looking to see the same multiplatform footage you had seen.

You're not the only one. I have gone from NES/SNES to PS/PS2 to Xbox 360 to PS4 and next will be going to Xbox Series X as my primary gaming console. I will still buy and own a PS5 but it will be for the 10-15 exclusives that I end up playing on it for the generation and well, that's it.

Everything Microsoft is doing with Xbox Series X from console itself to the controller to Game Pass to their first parties to their very consumer friendly moves is speaking to me like Sony was in 2013. All of those reasons combined is why Xbox Series X will be my primary gaming console for the upcoming generation.

Overall, im super hyped, can't wait and wish it was November 10th already!!!

Not so far anyway and from all the info and footage so far they are the same on multiplats and PS5 obviously has the edge in how good looking their exclusives are.

Like, Demons Souls demolishes pretty much anything.
This gen hasn’t even started yet and no ones been blown away yet from anything shown. In about 2 years we’ll be seeing the better next gen stuff. There’s no reason why all third parties should not look better on by the XSX though. So if you’re someone who mostly plays third party games. XSX is an easy choice IMO. I’m getting both. Ps5 is an exclusive machine for me.

And what are they? Story driven fps like halo? 😂

For starters: Halo, & Gears for great shooters with excellent gameplay and competitive multiplayer, Forza MS and Horizon for driving games, Ori & Cuphead for super high quality 2d platformers, The Medium and Scorn for horror and a bunch of others as opposed to PS5 a bunch of cartoony kids games or cinematic walking sims with pretty graphics and little gameplay that are all style and no substance

I don't live at either, but no I'm not getting an Xbox.

Competitive gaming and an actual difference in power is on PC, and Playstation got some sweet exclusive and 1st party games.

That they are third person?

And "cinematic," i.e., they have a story and cutscenes. Apparently that's a "formula" now.

p.s. Although I just tried to play Death Stranding, so I have to say, that one is definitely way too "cinematic" for my taste. It has over 11 hours of movie in it. Too much. I think you should use cutscenes to flesh out the story and characters, and to set up the plot, or perhaps to show cool moves you couldn't pull off with a controller, like in Spider-Man. But don't make cutscenes the centerpiece of the game. If you want to be a movie director, go be a movie director.

Astroturfing 101.
1. Make thread talking about how bad PlayStation service is.
2. Make thread pretending you are switching to the competition.
3. Profit.

Come on I said I lost my morals regarding that and this decision is no way related.

I said earlier I'm bored of story driven games and really only get enjoyment out of the competitive ones.

Right now I am seriously thinking about buying a Series X this year.


But I will definitely buy a PS5..... Probably in 2022 or something, then I will get all the PS exclusives on sales.

Fuck 70 usd games.

The Xbox oppression circus is hilarious.



"GAF is so mean to us"

I’m too thick skinned to feel oppressed by twattish comments like this and people acting like manbabies over plastic boxes. But I do like to read these forums for genuine discussion. The replies in this thread and your comment to me do not make for good discussion though, it just makes you look like cunts 🤷🏻‍♂️

But if it makes you feel like a big man, power to you 😂

Be aware Sony is still owned by super conservative old farts who put talent before virtue signaling. Thank god.

You are not the only one but I strongly doubt you are the majority. In Ireland not one person has mentioned Xbox to me, I doubt they even know what's it's called, but in work today everyone was saying they couldn't get to pre-order a PS5, I haven't heard one of them talk about being into video games before today!

I don't have any loyalty to corporations or brands. I just go where the gaming experiences are that I like. For the first 10 years of my gaming career, that was Xbox. Since about 2012, it's been Playstation. Three or four years from now, when Microsoft studios start delivering, I may switch back to Xbox again -- who knows. It depends on where the gaming experiences are that I enjoy.

I don't need to bag on the things other people enjoy. I think that's lame. You like competitive multiplayer games? Cool, enjoy them. You like story-driven action-adventure games and RPGs? Cool, enjoy them. You like to play puzzle games? Fine. Racing games? Neat. JRPGs? Great.

Why get defensive about what other people like? It doesn't change what I like. Putting other people down for their preferences just makes you look small.

Seems like you have it very clear, and in the end it all comes to tastes.

If you don´t like sony´s exclusives you'll be happy with your Xbox, no doubt, so go for it.
In my case, I'll wait a few years to see what ends up happening with sony exclusives and then decide. No rush, still have plenty of games to play.

Console fan boys should be changed to "poor people".

Who doesn't buy all consoles. You can buy a ps4 have it for a few years then sell it go buy a xbox. Mix and match.

I just sold both my Xbox One.

I paid $300 for my xbox one x. Sold locally for $350.
My kids Xb1 S I paid $150. Sold for $250 locally.
Nope, PS5 and PC.

No way am I paying for 2 subscriptions. Just paying 1 is bad enough.

Sony has done just about everything they could to make me buy a Series X instead of a PS5 next gen. Their single player focus and cross platform stance offends me...

But MS has been so utterly incompetent that I just can't get myself to do it. Honestly, a Halo Infinite multiplayer sneak peak would go a long way right now but they can't even do that. Microsoft feels utterly incompetent to me right now.

AAA third person story driven. TBH I’m slightly sick of most of them myself besides those two. GOW was amazing and can’t wait for ragnarok. Spider-Man was good but I wouldn’t say amazing. Rachet and clank was great. Besides those three I didn’t care for the rest of Sony’s first party this gen. I want more gamey games. Some more old school ps1-ps2 gen. My growing love for smaller games fits perfect with gamepass on top of the fact it will have the superior versions of all third parties.

What time is it?
Seems like a good choice for you, OP. I went digital this generation so switching primary platforms would be a difficult choice.
 
I'm dying laughing at some of you guys responses. This isn't a war. This isn't some religion. Get a grip lol. None of you guys should care what platform the other person chooses. And vise versa. Most games are going to be multiplatform with crossplay.


Some of y'all seriously need to get laid and let out all that pent up frustration. Maybe play some games for once?


To the OP: Good choice is you prefer multiplayer games and like the power difference.

PC would be the better choice though

I understsand and I agree with.

The problem is that people think their opinion and decisions are so prescious to creat a thread Just to show it so everyone can see.

Every single day on neogaf theres this type of thread now "Im building a pc, wont buy any console"so on and so forth.

At the end of the day, You do whatever You want with your money and no one fucking cares

I don't think this is that crazy of a premise. The homogeny of Sony games is exaggerated for sure, but it's disingenuous to act like their isn't a through-line. They seem to be all about the idea of blockbuster cinematic experience that emphasize story and graphics over everything else. That's all well and good, and obviously for the vast majority of people this delivers what they want out of Sony first party and isn't a problem.

For a portion of people though, these games just don't appeal. Other than Death Stranding I've been relatively unimpressed with Sony's first party in the second half of the PS4's life. It'll be blasphemy to many people here, but if I have to choose between Ghost of Tsushima and Crackdown, I'll pick Crackdown every time. I do not find the Naughty Dog model that most of their studios seem to be inching towards very fun. The emphasis on setpiece moments over engaging gameplay keeps me from finishing some of their higher profile games, whereas games like Battletoads and Gears Tactics do a much better job at keeping fun gameplay the core of the experience to me.

It's different strokes for different folks, that simple. I have a One and PS4, I'll be getting an Xbox Series X. But if Sony puts out a new PaRappa or InFamous game I might get a PS5 too. Right now though, they haven't shown anything truly exclusive that appeals to me.

EDIT: That all being said, I don't disagree at all with this take:

Fuck, what a sorry line up. All games found on pc or with a better alternative on other platforms.

Must be desperate, anyways, it's all about the flops for the op.

Flops are amazing, screw games
