@Digtoise69 @evolve That's on Xbox AND PC

Forza Horizon 5 sold over 5 million copies on PS5 ALONE when it launched, and that was, what, a year after it released on Xbox and PC?

[James Lara @MP1stLara]

@Abriael That actually how I felt with how the rest of the new stuff was multiplat.

Guess we'll see, but i just can't imagine this moves anything for them

[James Lara @MP1stLara]

When we reported about Gears E-day coming to PS5 in 2025, it was always to our understanding that it wasn't going to be day and date, but rather follow the stagger release of other Xbox titles at the time. I believe this will still be the case, even if Xbox doesn't mention it now

[James Lara @MP1stLara]

2024 was when xbox started its multiplat push with Grounded.
I dont understand the take of this being the reason xbox is worst (its not) than it has been.

Did people forget the last decade of struggling they had, focusing only on Xbox??

Can't help but feel history is repeating itself here with new leadership trying to cater to a small online community to make them feel good at the detriment of the actual business.

What's going to happen is they will revert, see it makes no difference to console sales, then revert back to their OG strategy a year or two after Helix' launch because they want to be a multiplatform publisher and they don't care where their games sell.

@manfightdragon @axl99 It's not even just the fps, a lot of these pre rendered videos are also heavily graded with filters, and rendered in lower bitrate

@MPFirst Not GTA6, but what else should be getting a 6

[James Lara @MP1stLara]

@NNhox65692 @hybridheroplays @Shpeshal_Nick So you bought these games to play offline, but didn't actually play them offline?

[James Lara @MP1stLara]

@dapoets AMD probably has a few more years to squeeze out of the current socket.

Intel just been awful lately with upgradeability

[James Lara @MP1stLara]

@dapoets if someone had to pick brand new, why would anyone choose the Intel 7 270K over a 9800X3D?

Performance & workload differences aside, that Intel CPU is end-of-the- for that socket. Literally have to buy an entire new mobo if you want to upgrade.

@BlooHook Why are we still here? Just to suffer?

[James Lara @MP1stLara]

@Glassdoorgamer PC's aren't even running at this full wattage all the time

Like cyberpunk, going to be 300-450W, one of the most demanding games.

Most games are probably sub 300W, even on max settings

[James Lara @MP1stLara]

@CrimeBossGame Happy to see the team staying dedicated!

[James Lara @MP1stLara]

@NextGenPlayer There are a few items that never do, even by the time you reach the end. So it could be bugged

[James Lara @MP1stLara]

@GenePark @NextGenPlayer You didn't try any charm combinations did you? The Requem transfers between the two characters, but it only has two charms

[James Lara @MP1stLara]

@matola_10 @Nabetinho i use a C2 OLED for my monitor, been what, maybe 5 years, of daily use, 8 plus hours a day with static portions.

IT can happen, but I'm under the impression of it being on the rare side

[James Lara @MP1stLara]

Holy crap, what a hit!
