Meanwhile, Forza is next gen only
True but the earliest Forza will release is fall 2022, with Horizon 5 coming this fall.Meanwhile, Forza is next gen only
Corona has nothing to do with actual PS5 supply issues... PS5 has the record shipment for any console ever.i think if the corona situation didnt happen and you could just buy a PS5 regulary than there wouldnt be this many cross games.
If that can bring back My 206This makes me wonder if they are having another version of the PS2 car issue like previous entries.
Ratchet & Clank next weekPatience is a virtue.
We'll get the true nex-gen exclusives soon enough.
GT6 was released on PS3 after PS4 had launched.I don’t believe it one second. There’s more PS5’s out there than PS4’s at the same time period yet Sony didn’t make their exclusives cross gen back then.
PolyphonyI like Polyphony Digitals attention to detail and everything but... I have to say;
If any other studio within Playstation Studios exhibited the delays and, frankly, lack of output they would’ve cut the cord like yesterday.
The contract with Bluepoint was to only make a PS5 version from the beginning. Remember, they're not first party, so everything is explicit. BP is fairly small, and lead by engineers. They wanted to harness the next gen capabilities. I also imagine they didn't have the man power to get a PS4 release included. It took enough effort as it was for them to get the game out on release without delays and wfh.If that's the case, why they didn't go that way with Demon's Souls Remake?
Yeah, ok it’s not as bad as it feels when you break it down like that...Polyphony

I feel ya man. Same. Every Sony game gets delayed a lot. Its part of their tradition now lol.Yeah, ok it’s not as bad as it feels when you break it down like that...
But it feels like forever and I want GT7 sooo much *throwing a tantrum*
Yeah same, visually its similiar to GT sport with some raytracing and 4K res.Always looked like a cross gen game to me visually, don't know why anyone is surprised.
Every Playstation Studios game will be available on PC.Any racing game can scale up easily. And for Horizon FW and GOW:R being crossgen is also understandable as both were targeting 2021 which is less than 1 year into the next gen.
So far offering next-gen only games are still there, which makes this year and next look promising. What doesn't sound good to me is the PC BS, but we need to wait and see how it's being handled.
In the end I prefer their way of doing it vs. releasing stuff half baked and unpolishedI feel ya man. Same. Every Sony game gets delayed a lot. Its part of their tradition now lol.
The problem is the competition has given the same or better attention to detail in a shorter time. Even dead franchises like Pcars.I like Polyphony Digitals attention to detail and everything but... I have to say;
If any other studio within Playstation Studios exhibited the delays and, frankly, lack of output they would’ve cut the cord like yesterday.
I refuse to believe you’re that naive. It was cross gen all along end of story.And did GTS release in the first year of the PS4? No. Did GoW or Spiderman? No. We are not talking about any exclusives, these are mamoths that release once in 5 years. They aint gonna rely on sales for a console they cant produce fast enough because of covid. They need their money back, its called a business decision. I dont remember any pandemics in 2013.
Because sony ADVERTISED it as a PS5 exclusivedon't know why anyone is surprised.
Back then Sony didn’t lie about the status of the PS4 cross gen gamesGT6 was released on PS3 after PS4 had launched.
Platform transitions will take longer, there is a $10 increase this gen, and covid delayed all projects wich is why we will see more cross gen games than before. Makes sense some games are cross gen and others exclusive.PS4 was also super succesful so Sony is supporting it longerI don’t believe it one second. There’s more PS5’s out there than PS4’s at the same time period yet Sony didn’t make their exclusives cross gen back then.
Yes, but from an engineering perspective, It's easier to make a game PS4 & PS5 than it ever was PS3 & PS4.I don’t believe it one second. There’s more PS5’s out there than PS4’s at the same time period yet Sony didn’t make their exclusives cross gen back then.
Umm no there isn't. Not even close thanks to the Pandemic.I don’t believe it one second. There’s more PS5’s out there than PS4’s at the same time period yet Sony didn’t make their exclusives cross gen back then.
I know, but visuals never looked that impressive so it's not shocking that it can run on PS4.Because sony ADVERTISED it as a PS5 exclusive
No what? There's documented history of examples of this exact thing happening numerous times. We've had things like XB360 -> PSP ports (a substantially bigger gap than what we're talking about here) done in under 3 months on a shoe-string budget, not because anyone thought about it during 2 years of development prior - but because someone in publishing thought it would be great to add another SKU after the fact. These ports would usually still ship with all 'core' features intact, and often have additional content over the base version (though granted, they probably got 6 months for those).
All I said was 'it can, and it does happen'. What that would mean to Rift Apart is academic - if they announce a PS4 version I'm sure it'll play about as well as Resogun on PSVita did... Doesn't mean it didn't happen though.Your position is that basically Insomniac can put out a statement and say we're going to release Rift Apart on PS4. Do you think that's possible without fundamental changes?
What exactly does backport mean to you? There's no such thing as 0-compromise on any down-port in history, so by that definition - all titles are truly designed for their target hw.And if they can backport it then it was never really, truly designed for just the PS5 hardware.
I think it do has something to do with it because the supply chain is broken, the stores are closed and the demand is higher than the shipments because most of the people have to much time. Many Countrys had their Borders closed and most of them came with ship instead of flight. Many manufacturer had corona problems with personal being sick or closing complete working shifts because someone got Cov19 etc etcCorona has nothing to do with actual PS5 supply issues... PS5 has the record shipment for any console ever.
The problem is the demand is happily too high.
True but the earliest Forza will release is fall 2022, with Horizon 5 coming this fall.
Heh - why would anyone be surprised about half of Sony's first party output being cross-gen when its literally never happened in the history of PlayStation?Not sure why so many are surprised about so many cross-gen games from Sony this gen...
... and stating that they believed a clear line between generations was a necessity for PlayStation 5?That nod toward PlayStation’s belief in clear generational lines seems like a slightly tongue-in-cheek comment about how Sony’s next system fundamentally differs from Microsoft’s upcoming Xbox Series X and its plan to release first-party titles on both the Xbox One and Xbox Series X generation for at least the next few years.
As PlayStation global marketing head Eric Lempel explained to Geoff Keighley during the latest Summer Games Fest video (via IGN), PlayStation sees a clear line between console generations as a necessity, and one that helps drive the development of innovative and unique games for the PlayStation 5.
“In many cases, we can’t take everybody with us from previous consoles into [a next generation experience],” Lempel tells Keighley. “You need new hardware, you need new devices to experience what these developers want you to experience.”
