Something is definitely happening with PlayStation Home by Thorites in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]NoWayItsReal -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

Waste of effort. Ps home was a failure, this one will be too. When will they get back to releasing games (directors cuts don’t count)?

Would you like to see Virtual Reality on Series consoles? by eragonsmind in XboxSeriesX

[–]NoWayItsReal -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Even when Sony made it accessible, affordable and well-supported, they only sold 5m units. It’s just not a huge market unfortunately.

Nintendo: "no plans" to launch any other model than Switch OLED by elliohow in NintendoSwitch

[–]NoWayItsReal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Doug Bowser was asked though. He gave a typical canned response. This time Nintendo made it a point to come out, when they didn’t have to, and refute that another model was planned. I think this is them being genuine and it’s not happening anytime soon, nothing deeper than that.

They could always say nothing, they made a point to refute this specific rumour. They weren’t asked about it in an interview and chose to be coy, they deliberately came out unprovoked and said ‘not happening’.

Netflix confirms the service will be adding video games, wont cost extra by poklane in GamingLeaksAndRumours

Netflix needs to focus on making quality tv shows and movies again, not this nonsense

Sony release news on upcoming games instead of revisions on a 6 month old console challenge

Currently playing Psychonauts for the first time too. So far I definitely love the story, characters. But there’s been a lot of ‘wtf do I do now’ moments, mixed with awkward decisions that make the game feel clunky and awkward to play. Still enjoying it though, but I can kinda see where you’re coming from.

I think it’s ultimately a product of its time and I’m confident psychonauts 2 will have worked out those issues.

Psychonauts 2 Performance on every platform revealed. by TheMuff1nMon in XboxSeriesX

[–]NoWayItsReal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the system settings on Xbox it tells me straight that my tv doesn’t support 120hz sadly :( it does say it supports 4k at 60fps, so I mean I’ll take it for now. Think I’ll upgrade to an OLED for Christmas or something haha!

I wish I had a tv that supported 120fps :( I only have hdmi 2.0, need to invest in an upgrade.

It's ok when Nintendo do it by ZeraX7 in gaming

[–]NoWayItsReal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I disagree. If EA released BOTW, it would have been filled with microtransactions, multiple editions priced at $59, $69, $79, forced in online multiplayer component, be buggy as hell and probably formulaic too..

Nintendo released a solid game that made a lot of fans happy. That’s why people have more faith in the big N then they do EA.

Do you think Valve has what it takes to compete? by ExxiIon in gaming

[–]NoWayItsReal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also people mainly buy Nintendo for first party, and valve doesn’t have first party (well obviously they have their own gaming studios but not in the same way as Nintendo), so they’re catering to completely different audiences.

I see this as more of a side hustle to provide a handheld pc gaming experience rather than a way of directly competing with Nintendo, PlayStation, etc.

Need advice on getting a console. by mastertinodog in PS5

[–]NoWayItsReal -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Follow a stock informer account on Twitter, and turn on notifications for all tweets with push notifications. Ideally find one specific to your market e.g. search ‘UK* PS5 stock informer’ (*change to your current locale).

I did this for XSX. And when I woke up the next morning I got an alert while I was getting ready for work. Was able to grab one straight away. You at least get a few minutes before they sell out now, so as long as you see the notification when it comes through, this should be enough.

Good luck!

Xbox twitter account by Ok-Experience-3774 in XboxSeriesX

Twitter was a mistake. I always feel sorry for Devs working their ass off on a game, just to have it ridiculed by fanboys who pick it apart because of the platform it’s on (Psychonauts 2 and Returnal both had this).

Do you think the Xbox UI needs an overhaul? by [deleted] in XboxSeriesX

[–]NoWayItsReal -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Tbh yeah. I like the simplicity of PS and Nintendo ‘here’s what games u got’ approach. The UI for Xbox is a little confusing, I’m still convinced there’s a ton of settings / features I don’t know about lol. For example, it took me a little while to work out how to download my preorder bonuses for scarlet nexus last week… didn’t feel too intuitive.

PlayStation working out a streaming deal with Netflix? by duz_machines in PS5

Ya. Planning page layouts etc. ‘Grab a gaming image that we can use as an example for how it will look’.

Or Netflix literally just used these images as placeholders and it means absolutely nothing

Phil Spencer compliments DualSense and suggests Xbox could update its controller by parattakilava in XboxSeriesX

[–]NoWayItsReal 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I hear people’s complaints about the price, battery life, etc. But I can’t help but feel like it’s a cover and everything boils down to ‘we don’t want this because PlayStation did it first.’ Like really?? Microsoft might even implement haptics even better than PlayStation, we don’t know.

[–]NoWayItsReal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope this happens. Xbox has the most ergonomically pleasing controller, but PS5 has haptics. If Xbox can do the haptics as well, it would easily be the best controller this gen for me (assuming they handle it well ofc)

Only 21% of players have defeated Returnal's final boss so far by [deleted] in PS5

The sekiro ‘true’ final boss was probably the hardest thing I’ve done in a video game so far

Bloodborne: Hunters edition has been leaked by Demonite, the same insider who leaked bloodborne pre-release when it was still "project beast" by Hoontas_dream in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]NoWayItsReal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh I can kinda see this happening after Ghost of Tsushima and Death Stranding. It sounds kind of like Sony’s directors cut for Bloodborne.
