I’ve been playing nothing but PS4 games since I got the PS5, so I really have no idea what a true next gen game is like, but I will say I don’t think I could ever go back to the old load times of any gen
It had a DVD player
Yeah but it had AAA’s dropping a lot it’s first 12 mo. This current gen keeps getting cross platform games and directors cuts. Nothing like the old days where great games dropped all the time. Granted games were easier to make back then and only a few cost as much as a Hollywood blockbuster. Now every game is 20-100m on up these days.
2000-2001 was maybe the best era of gaming…
From q4 2000 to q4 2001 you had halo (Xbox but worth mentioning), GTA 3, mgs2, ffx, resident evil code Veronica, GT3, Mario double dash (ngc, but worth mentioning), dmc, and a whole other load of games peppered in the first 12 mo. The deck hasn’t been that loaded for the ps5s first 12 months. Granted COVID and hardware shortages haven’t helped.
Yeah and if I recall, it was one of the better DVD players too, and it was cheap too compared to a lot of them.
The ps2 was only available for like 2 months in the year 2000. I’m ignoring it’s early Japan launch as that was a token gesture by Sony. They were barely in store shelves. None the less 2000-2001 was maybe the best year in gaming ever…nearly a whole era of classics came out. It pretty much the blue prints of what makes 3D games successful.
Probably confused this with the gba Mario game. Played the crap out of both.
seeing that list reminded me that I bought Evergrace...and its still till this day one was the worst games to ever grace this planet
It did on the first run. One hell of a demo….better than zoe lol. Still a good game though.
We are talking solely PS2 first year games though so ignoring Halo and Mario Kart. You are talking games that came out the later end of first year of release too. If we're talking the first year of the PS5 until Q4 2021, you should also include upcoming releases for this Q4 for the PS5.
My point is back then you had AAA titles and generation defining ones just about every month. You don’t have that happen anymore. Just saying you can’t justify the ps5 selling the way it has as it really hasn’t had very many good games. Let’s be real this generation will be defined 2-3 years from now. None of the ps5 games you’ve listed are half as epic as those games from that era of time. Sorry no one will remember reternal fondly 20 yrs from now. Lastly mgs2 and gta3 were sold/marketed as console exclusives. No one knew these games would drop. What honestly happened was the Xbox became a surprisingly large smash hit and converted a bunch of pc gamers to console gamers. It was a no brainer to port and sell games on that platform.
I’m not worried at about console sales numbers. Just saying I don’t get the hype is all. People act like these systems poop $100 bills lol. The same goes for the series x/s atm.
Whether you get the hype or not, the fact is that people want the new console regardless of whether or not there’s much to play on it or not. They want the option of being able to play whatever new games come out. The other fact is PS4 games look better and run better on the PS5.
Every game on this, list coming out at launch or in 2021 take one step forward.
I have to say that Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart is worthy. It really does look and play amazing.
No doubt, it’s an amazing game. To get such a great game so soon in the generation feels like a sign we’re in for some all timers
There's still over 5 months left in 2021, so there's a chance of it releasing this year.
Sony confirmed Horizon was coming second half of 2021 though this was last year. I don't see information saying otherwise for this year. Guerilla Games also states the game is still on track. But if you have any new info on that feel free to post it.
I never said launch homie. I said first year Q4 2000-Q4 2001…and yeah that one year had way more hits than 2020-2021 (or really any period I can think of). Probably the best 12 month period in gaming history.lmao @ PS2 having one of the best launch lineups.
I think I've seen it all now.
You're usually a part of that bickering. So I don't feel bad that you missed out again.
