In regards to Gran Turismo, I still don't get how some people think this is acceptable AI in a racing game.
If this were to happen in a Forza, NFS, Crew, or F1 game, people would be screaming their asses off about it, and the GT fans would ridicule the said AI endlessly. But when GT does it...
Please sir, it's realistic water driving physics and the AI has to keep it running at high speed, that's why forza is the best racing game when compared to the other trash, because realistically you wouldn't be able to handle in wet roads at high speed...

...never mind slowing the fuck down, the point of GT elitism is basically that to be honest.
 
Is that the latest GT? It looks terrible (forget the AI)...

Yes, that is GT7 indeed. To offset the terrible AI, the game makes you start like 40-50 seconds+ behind the leader, making the game more of a pass the rolling chicanes game, instead of an actual racing game. Also, the AI sticks to only one racing line, resulting in things such as the AI ramming into you, as if it were an online player that only rams other drivers. Also, there are times when the AI forgets to go to pit lane to refuel, and runs out of fuel on the track, but still stays on the racing line, instead of pulling over to the side of the track.

The AI in that video is also running on slick tires, and apparently comes into the pits one lap too late, to change to intermediates or wet tires.

Many were baffled this week when the PS5 achieved its highest hardware sales in Japan since launch week but no PS5 software managed to chart in the top 10 of the Famitsu chart.
I believe one of the main reasons for this is because PS5 scalping has been and still is occurring on an industrial scale. Most of these PS5s are resold in China. There is still a demand for Japanese PS5s in China because Chinese PS5s are region locked.

Unlocked Japanese PS5s are resold in the Chinese "grey market". And this is lucrative because the yen is so weak. I have gathered evidence to support this hypothesis. (Pics taken passers-by I have credited but pics taken by scaplers I have not. They can get fucked )

Up until recently retailers in Japan had restrictions on buying PS5s such as requiring a store card, and PS5s were sold by lottery. Scapler organisations got around this by employing dozens of people to buy PS5s from various stores. pics: @Naka_Yotaka 15 Oct 2021


Some stores even required Japanese ID but scapler organisations (mostly run by Chinese citizens) simply got around this by employing Japanese people and giving them a small cut of each PS5 gathered. vid: @neo_yamuyamu 26 Jan 2021

A reseller hoards PS5s in their house. The PS5s all have anti-resale stickers on them. In the end such stickers made no difference. The reseller complains that they have twice as many, they are tired and wants them to be bought. Pic: reseller 2 Jan 2023

Posted today. The scalping doesn't seem to be slowing down. A van full of PS5s being transported to a resellers hideout. Thank you to

Xbox is in good standing right now because Gamepass is good, and they don't have a Neil Druckmann popping out every now and then to chastise their own customers and fart out retarded things like that second rerelease of The Last of Us at full price.

Xbox is still woke as fuck, they just aren't giving us a big antagonist like Druckmann to scream at.
They don't have a Druckmann but they are still fully committed to the DIE agenda, so you get ugly-looking characters, "body type 1 or 2" and protagonists with prosthetic limbs.
Xbox has alot of IPs but the corporate pressure from MS and the current state of the western gaming industry don't allow those studios to shine.

Microsoft’s issues are they've taken forever to rebuild their 1st party and release games from them/the managers are incompetent. There's only been pockets of that kind of stuff (for now...), and not as in your face as "Spider-Man says trans rights!". I'd even say stuff like Gears 5 was pretty good, but not up to the peak as 2 or 3. Halo's never been more irrelevant, but that has nothing to do with wokeness, the new games just fucking suck.

I have high hopes for their B-team studios, the likes of Undead Labs, Compulsion, Obsidian and inXile to make great games. The talent's certainly there. And all in all Phil Spencer is a pretty cool guy, he recently pissed off the Resetera folks with his comments, so he must be doing something right.
 
So I got a PS5 and it's...alright. I don't really see what the huge deal between it and the PS4 is? Graphically they don't even seem different really. The only thing of note is things load a lot faster.

Oh and the store is absolutely FUCKED on PS5. Want to browse the store catalog? What are you, retarded? No retard you get to see what Sony wants to show you or you better know what you're looking for.

This is the only new gen in gaming where I don't immediately see a difference. Maybe they need to develop software further. I don't know but I'm not as impressed as I thought I'd be
 
.
One sticker in my side is they own the rights to a JRPG fan fav. A cult classic that many hold to be one of the best of the PS1 generation. Legend of Dragoon.
I'm playing thru that game right now as I speak, it's no hyperbole probably one of the best games i've ever played (even better than FF7 imo). it's so amazing to see such a supportive community for the game cheering on a remake but it's very very unlikely it would happen

So I got a PS5 and it's...alright. I don't really see what the huge deal between it and the PS4 is? Graphically they don't even seem different really.

I think the era of mindblowing-graphics kind of stopped at like XB360/PS3, since then there hasn't really been a console that wows you in terms of graphics I don't know if that "holy shit this looks so lifelike" feeling will ever happen again with a next gen system to be honest.

IDK PS3 to PS4 seemed like a decently big leap but then again I was using a PS3 for a longass time. I would say GTA V was likely the best you could see an older console perform graphically and it looks like mud now compared to any other version. Playstation 4 to 5 I can see almost nothing noticeable though...people say framerates but I guess I have retard eyes because if that's so I don't notice.

Nah there's a lot of people saying that... you'd have to be a visualphile (if that's even a word/a thing) to really care about the graphical differences.

ultimately i probably won't buy a PS5, i barely even like brand new games that much

Granted, R&C 2016 was rushed, but the series looks a lot better graphically when placed side by side:

The PS5 can really up the presentation, but given all the inter-generational games, there really isn’t much of an improvement currently. I would guess that, like the PS4, very few games really use the technology to its fullest. In saying all this, we still have yet to truly beat out Arkham Knight in terms of graphics.

You have to use an online store or previous gen console to buy new profile icons because Sony made them inaccessible on PS5. Sony really hitting Nintentard stupidity when it comes to create an online shop. Hell, I think I had to use an online store for my PS Plus as navigating it on PS5 is either impossible or incredibly shitty to do.

The Switch store isn't TOO bad in theory though it lags super bad. When I saw PS5 has a wishlist I was amazed then incredibly annoyed that Sony couldn't be fucked to add a basic feature to the PS4.

Speaking of minor annoyances, there being no themes kind of cheeses me off. Even more so because a lot of the best ones were from preorders for Sony exclusives. God they are niggers
 
There is still a demand for Japanese PS5s in China because Chinese PS5s are region locked.
Never understood region locking a console, why would you want people to have the same hardware but different software depending on the region they reside in
 
Lately I've been booting my ps3 trying to play some old kino, and in almost every account I have I'm getting LE EPIC QR CODE MESSAGE!!!
1676479151362.png

Even though I know the email and the password apparently that's not enough to log in these days in this gay ass fucking world. You gotta scan QR codes with your Goyphone TM, log on their website, answer captchas, enable 2 factor authentication, generate a device password, suck a dick and maybe it will log you in. And even though I managed to do all the shit they ask you to do on their website and get some accounts back, other accounts ask me for birthday date which I can't remember, so now they are gone forever. How was I supposed to know these fucking retards will make my perfectly working auto sign in accounts, useless one day? They're trying really hard to get me to move on and buy a ps5 like a nigger but it won't work. Faggot ass company full of retarded californians, may they all die horribly.

Controlling the market is my guess. Back during the PS3 and prior eras, localizations were typically crafted and released months after the initial Japanese run. To mitigate the market buying the game months early, avoid regional controversies, and control spoilers for any story game, region locking was instated. Now with internet prevalence and day & day releases, region locking has no purpose.
 
They are adding Forbidden West to PS Plus.

It must have sold like shit.
Little PL from the past experiences with people on looks in forms of entertainment:
Contrary to woketards idea of challenging beauty standards are the expectations of the customers. And they know what they pay for. For horizon to be big profitable it would’ve needed to be with a way more attractive main character. Especially when women play a game like this.

A series back then I stopped watching after season 1 because it turned into garbage was „dead like me“. Funny as fuck series but one big problem the people in my vicinity (especially women) had when watching the first episode was „she’s ugly, I don’t want to watch an ugly woman in a series.“
That’s one example but it spoke volumes to me, way more things started to make sense. Entertainment expectations matter.
If you sell a game like this for a price like this it better be an attractive character from the looks as well. Not scantily clad not porn character just attractive and interesting to look at.
Horizon has been made into memes with Nicocado Avocado and what do you know? It fits too well.
Sony fucks themselves way too hard.
