I'll be honest, Bloodborne isn't even that great. Dark Souls 3 and everything after is better. Bloodborne is just so overhyped because its the only thing the Sony soy's have.

Xbox game to appear on the japanese Famitsu sales chart for the first time in six years (last one was Final Fantasy XV). Hell freezes over.

Makes me want to play Injustice all over again if that’s the case. That game series at least did superheroes right.

On the subject of WW, what the hell happened to that Wonder Woman game that was shown off at the game awards like two years ago?

The most insulting part of this is that not only is this his last performance, they're shitting all over his last actually-incredible performance in Arkham Knight by making this a sequel. If you're going to make a sequel to a game with a good, definitive ending like that, make it something meaningful and big about Batman, not some fucking loonies running around and being "quirky."
I swear, I think when Rocksteady went to WB and pitched a Superman game (which is what they should have fucking made in the first place, not this pile of shit), I bet WB came back and said "nah we don't have any Superman movies coming out but we got more Suicide Squad, so go make a Suicide Squad game, we can monetize the shit out of it." A dev like Rocksteady that made 3 incredible games doesn't just turn into shit that quick, WB has to be heavily interfering. Deadshot being black instead of white like in Arkham City is evidence of this, I think they wanted him to resemble Will Smith.
Also, how do you make Harley Quinn look that ugly when you made 3 very good-looking models for her in previous games?
Kevin Conroy deserved better. RIP.

This is the worst generation of consoles I think I've ever seen in my life. Even the PS3 had more momentum 2 years after launch. Overall it feels like the videogame industry has slowed down, at-least the big studios.
This feels like a bad generation for gaming as a whole, but especially Playstation.

Because there isn't. I've got one and it's fucking nothing, just Sony inflating its own marketing. Even if it was amazing, it's not used in anything noteworthy because PS5 got no games.

Funny, I was going through some old photos and found some from a gaming show I went to in Hong Kong. This is the last time Sony really felt "cool" to me. They'd never do something like this now.

Come to think of it, there are a lot of differences between this, and a couple of generations ago:
- There were no models of any home console that were strictly digital only, while the PS5 and Xbox Series launched with those
- No more small handhelds, and portables are all tablet-sized. No, I'm not counting your Chinaware Android handheld thing you got from Aliexpress
- Full installs are 100% mandatory across the board, while full installs were fairly rare way back when. 360 didn't even have full installs until late into its life
- 500gb of HDD space on a PS3 or a 360 could handle a gigantic library, while 500GB on PS5 and Series X|S can fill up with as little as two games
- The Compact Disc was released in 1982
- The Digital Versatile Disc was released in 1996, 14 years after the CD
- The Blu-ray Disc was released in 2006, 10 years after the DVD
Oh no, all of those ladies are exposing the lower halves of their legs and there's a gendered bathroom sign in the background. You're gonna give all the PS5 owners a heart attack

And this was in Hong Kong too. Clearly, events like these are no longer acceptable in the new CCP-approved version of Hong Kong, right? Or has the CCP not gone to those levels yet?

That was 2019, pre-Covid but just as shit was hitting the fan with protests. Hard to say if something like that would happen today, even without Covid. Depends on how pissy China is at Japan that day.

Mean both ps5 and series x has more 500gb, and the biggest ps5 game in terms of size is CoD BOCW at 225.3 GB fully updated, game sizes are crazy but 2 games for 500gb is bit over blown.
The 10 Biggest PS5 Game File Sizes (& How Many GB They Take Up)
The PS5 has some huge games. These are the biggest so far, and just how many GB they take up!

To answer your question on UHD Blu ray, yes it is a new format but is built upon some of the blu ray tec. It comes in three capacities, with a 50GB version at an 82Mbps read rate, a 66GB version at 108Mbps and a 100GB version at 128Mbps. But as you said discs for games right now are for installing rather than playing from

Is that the case with Nintendo Switch as well? IIRC, I remember putting in Metroid Dread and after a 2-minute cartridge install they prompted for an online update I could skip and play without. I was amazed by how nice it was that the game could run off the goddamn physical media without needing anything else to do so.

Oh yeah, that's the only platform that doesn't mandate installs universally. Though a large number of games won't even start without an update.
It'd be kind of pointless to mandate installs on Switch, anyway. I can't imagine the cartridge slot is noticeably slower than the built-in storage or the MicroSD. I haven't touched my Switch in a while, having controllers that just fall apart after a few months sure is a good deterrent.

I'm not sure if things are stagnating but it feels like it across the board with games. It seems like graphics are getting about as good as they can get, same with hardware requirements, new tech like DLSS and Unreal Engine's Nanite would make rendering graphics easier, theoretically. So far it just seems to be a race to see how many pixels can fit on a screen, but there comes a point of diminishing returns even there. This is the same trend I see everywhere. It's like culture is slowing down in many ways.
Maybe we're on the way to the finish line of the graphics race, similar to toasters, there's just no way to optimize it with reasonable resource costs.

IMO we've already crossed that finish line. We're now at the point where the victory celebration is over but the racer is still doing laps to keep the hype/attention going when meanwhile everyone went home about an hour ago.
UE5 form a visual standpoint is not doing anything different that UE4 couldn't do, mocap is churning out hideous uncanny valley models, and ray-tracing is breaking people's computers by making the game just flat-out not work even on gaming rigs that are supposed to be built for graphic intensive shit.

Speaking of mocap, I'm seeing a lot of indie films starting to use UE for animation. I guess it makes animation a lot easier vs rigging and doing it all manually.
