One side made a massive deal of their team saying “we believe in generations” and that they believe new hardware needs new exclusive games built specifically for it, while the others said their games for up to 2 years will be cross platform.Why do so many care if something is cross-gen? If the game still looks and plays great on the new system, with features not possible otherwise, who cares?
I really think this all started with Halo, and Infinite is not a case of the cross-gen strategy holding it back but rather just poor and problematic development IMO.
Cross-gen is good for everyone.
Ragnarok is a series of events in Norse mythology, so I think people just took that "Ragnarok is coming" likely incorrectly as "god of war ragnarok is coming" when it's alluding to the events that Ragnarok refer to.It's completely possible it acts as a bridge between the previous game and the eventual full sequel.
Remember, the title said 'Ragnarok is Coming'. Sony never confirmed the game was subtitled Ragnarok. That's what the media went with. Maybe the next game IS Ragnarok, and this is set in those 3 years that we see in the epilogue in the last game.
Yeah, stupid question. Demon's Souls is their highest rated launch exclusive ever and one of the highest rated games on Metacritics. They also released a next gen version of Spider-Man.Q: It is! Sony have been criticised for not launching the PS5 with an accompanying first party exclusive system seller, though. Is that a valid complaint?
what kind of stupid question is that with demons souls being a launch game?
Jim Ryan has a nice interview with Telegraph. He's straight forward, when possible.
A few snippets here:

PlayStation CEO Jim Ryan: £70 is fair price for PS5 games and launch line-up is console's best ever
The second part of the Telegraph's exclusive interview also covers console storage, cloud gaming and the PS5's divisive designwww.telegraph.co.uk
He also talks about the 70£ price, the rumours that Playstation were considering even higher prices and more. Also a small tidbit about the size of the console, as well as the size of the SSD.
The great thing about fighting on the internet is that you don't have to read the source information to fight about it.Are all of you guys who are discussing about this interview subscribers to telegraph.uk ?? The link doesn't let me read the interview without subscribing (yeah it's free for one month but i hate to be forced to do that)
Is there another link where i can read the interview?
You won't believe part 3Damn it Jimbo! GOW ragnarok part 2 better be fire then!
PS4 HDD severely limited the scope of some of the things they wanted to do, eg fast travel portals from any spot and in fact the fast travel in general. It also made the one cut camera exceedingly harderWhy do so many care if something is cross-gen? If the game still looks and plays great on the new system, with features not possible otherwise, who cares?

That's the Telegraph for you. Hack cunts. PS5 launch lineup is phenomenal.Q: It is! Sony have been criticised for not launching the PS5 with an accompanying first party exclusive system seller, though. Is that a valid complaint?

I know, right? Don't they know it was Metacritic's #13 PS3 game of 2009? If that's not a system selling pedigree then nothing is.That's the Telegraph for you. Hack cunts. PS5 launch lineup is phenomenal.
So phenomenal you can play all of it elsewhere!That's the Telegraph for you. Hack cunts. PS5 launch lineup is phenomenal.
Oh hush, like anyone cared that the Switch's best launch title was cross gen. PS5's best launch title you do need it however.So phenomenal you can play all of it elsewhere!
Come on mate, it's not phenomenal in any sense of the word. When you don't even need a PS5 to play any of the games, it's a bad launch lineup.
Compare it to PS4 launch. Compare it to PS3 launch. Compare it to XSX launch. Compare it to X1 launch. Miles better than all of them.So phenomenal you can play all of it elsewhere!
Come on mate, it's not phenomenal in any sense of the word. When you don't even need a PS5 to play any of the games, it's a bad launch lineup.
Again - all the games are available elsewhere. If you don't need the console to play the games, the launch games list is lackluster.Compare it to PS4 launch. Compare it to PS3 launch. Compare it to XSX launch. Compare it to X1 launch. Miles better than all of them.
Where else are you playing this version of Demon's Souls? Keep that same energy when you talk about Xbox's dreadful launch line up too please.Again - all the games are available elsewhere. If you don't need the console to play the games, the launch games list is lackluster.

This Demons Souls and the Demons Souls that released 11 years ago on the PS3 are the same game, just with different graphics. BTW I can already play Demon's Souls on my PC at native 1080p and higher.Where else are you playing this version of Demon's Souls? Keep that same energy when you talk about Xbox's dreadful launch line up too please.

It's mad that people are going on and on about multiplatforms so much
Last gen games as far as Evil Within, watch dogs and metal gear solid V were all multiplats
Where are you playing Demon’s Souls 2020 and Astrobot?Again - all the games are available elsewhere. If you don't need the console to play the games, the launch games list is lackluster.

The fact that they flat out asked Ryan if it's a PS5 exclusive game and he said he has "got nothing to say about that". If it was a PS5 exclusive then it's a simple "yes".Where are people getting the "God of War Ragnarok is cross gen" from?
Currently not stated as next gen exclusive:Cross gen
Spidey MM
Horizon FW

Demons Souls isn't 1st party.Q: It is! Sony have been criticised for not launching the PS5 with an accompanying first party exclusive system seller, though. Is that a valid complaint?
what kind of stupid question is that with demons souls being a launch game?
I like how you omitted better framerate for the PS5 Demon’s Souls. To me, you cannot play Demon’s Souls 2020 anywhere else so that means it’s exclusive.Demons Souls 2020 is Demons Souls 2009 with better graphics. I can play Demon's Souls 2009 with RPCS3 with better graphics and framerate. I don't, because I don't like the game or genre, but I do have it and have played it to see how it runs.
Astrobot is a tech demo. I'll give you that one, can't play it anywhere.
The fact that they flat out asked Ryan if it's a PS5 exclusive game and he said he has "got nothing to say about that". If it was a PS5 exclusive then it's a simple "yes".
Demons Souls isn't 1st party.
This is a nonsense comparison. There’s a different between PR and you asking a random person if they’ve committed a crime. But you knew that already, surely.yeah it's totally not suspicious for him to deny any comment on the question...
what would you think if I asked someone "did you ever kill a child?" and that person answered "I can't speak about this at this moment!"
Currently not stated as next gen exclusive:
GT7
Ragnarok
Currently on "last gen PC":
Godfall
Honestly it wouldn't surprise me if Destruction All Stars and R&C end up on PS4 alongside God of War 2 and GT7. Demon's Souls will end up on PC as well.
This is a nonsense comparison. There’s a different between PR and you asking a random person if they’ve committed a crime. But you knew that already, surely.
then tell my why he might not answer this if it is PS5 exclusive?
that's weird don't you think? I can't remember ever seeing a similar response from a first party before.
By better framerate I mean you can probably play it at 120fps on RPCS3 if you want to, if you have hardware that can support it. Or you can play it with VRR. It's a different situation to PS5, which is either 4K30 or 1080p(or 1440?)60 but not locked 60 and with no VRR.I like how you omitted better framerate for the PS5 Demon’s Souls. To me, you cannot play Demon’s Souls 2020 anywhere else so that means it’s exclusive.
As for Astrobot - by all accounts it is a great game.
Zero chance they would cancel a PS4 version. It makes no business sense to do so. Like it or not, restricting a game to a console that will maybe have sold 15 million consoles is a bad idea if you like money. Sony like money, because they're a business. They'd be stupid not to release it on the PS4 since it has clearly been in development on PS4.Maybe it's being made on and PS4 and PS5 but they might decide to cancel the PS4 version and so are waiting on announcing it.
cant play astro bot or demon souls anywhere but you already knew that.So phenomenal you can play all of it elsewhere!
Come on mate, it's not phenomenal in any sense of the word. When you don't even need a PS5 to play any of the games, it's a bad launch lineup.

Great rebuttal. Care to elaborate?You're just talking out of your ass.
Number of sales doesn't really matter if it makes less money. They'd rather sell 5mil at $70 and make $20 profit per copy than sell 10mil at $50 and make $0 profit.Jim ryan is really old arrogant Sony is back.
Not too convinced that games should be more expensive and exclusive.
He should strive to increase the out reach of sales. So instead of 70 sold to 5m, it will be beneficial to target selling to 10m at 50
