Tarheel Moneghetti 138 Posted March 15 Saw an article on Twitter about Bernie Sanders calling upon Nintendo to release Animal Crossing early due to the coronavirus. Read about half the article before I realized it was fake. Feel kinda dumb. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Raziel 7,963 Posted March 16 Rumor from Capcom is that the RE3 demo drops Friday and the REsistance Beta fires up on the 27th. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Craig H 11,859 Posted March 16 We were going to give my daughter Animal Crossing on Easter, but now that she'll be home the whole time until I'm assuming after spring break (so returning April 13), we're tempted to give it to her on Friday. She has elearning every day, but elearning only should take an hour or two. Decisions... I've never played Animal Crossing. I have no idea why it's so popular. I will still play it and give it a shot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RIPPA 31,038 Posted March 16 For those of you who like specs - Microsoft released what is inside the XBOX Series X https://kotaku.com/heres-whats-inside-the-xbox-series-x-1842356685 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Death From Above 4,009 Posted March 16 The specs are cool but, like, even understanding that console makers now operate on a theory of "take a loss on the initial hardware, make it back in games", I can't see how they can sell that near where the current gen sells for. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Raziel 7,963 Posted March 16 Those specs in a PC box would be well north of $1000, so I'm not sure what they're going for. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tarheel Moneghetti 138 Posted March 17 Even before coronavirus, I felt like the Xbox Series X was going to end up selling for more than most gamers wanted to pay. After looking over the specs, what Raziel said. That should probably be a $1,200 console. They really want to sell in for half price. And, do they really want to release a high-priced console (that's still probably being sold at a substantial loss) in this economic climate? After we probably endure months or years or coronavirus, a global recession, and god knows what else? I feel like the people who will most get to enjoy the next generation of consoles will be radioactive mutants and the cave-dwelling remnants of humanity they enslaved.

Craig H 11,859 Posted March 17 My wife gave me permission to buy an Xbox if it was $500. $600 is going to be too expensive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I barely have time to play the PS4 and I bought that at launch. I will continue my hard as nails Platinum trophy hunting on PS3, Vita, and PS4. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Craig H 11,859 Posted March 18 Man, it really feels like Sony fumbled the PS5. This almost seals me getting an Xbox unless that one is just outrageously priced. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's about the same as the PS4 reveal; that started with an one hour lecture as well. I'm getting neither next gen. Gaming as a market is starting to dry up.

Raziel 7,963 Posted March 18 It was straight tech. Specs wise, the systems are about the same (dependent on how the variable frequency works in practice vs. theory) The difference between the 2 specs wise is about the difference between the SNES and Genesis. There are things one is going to do better than the other. It's going to come down to games. Because you can make something as pretty as you want, if it's shit, it's still gonna be shit. At the end of the day, the system that lets me keep ED, God of War, Horizon, Tomb Raider, and the RE's are what's going to sell me. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tromatagon 8,739 Posted March 18 The game that gets the japanese developers is the one I'm going to give a fuck about and I bet $5 that's nothing Xbox ever 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oyaji 8,863 Posted March 18 (edited) Pretty much. I hope this is the last generation of super consoles and after this we're dealing with Stadia-type platforms and don't have to worry about buying the same system as friends, because most of my dudes are Xboners and I gotsta go Sorny for the exclusives and possibility of Japanese wrestling games and other Japanese oddities. However, this is the first time since I think the PS2 that I won't be getting the machine at launch. I barely play games anymore and the PS4 preorder debacle is still fresh enough where I got that fraction of a fraction chance of receiving a bricked machine due to sabotage on behalf of upset Taiwanese interns working for Sony. I'll hold off for a bit here to see how it goes and in the meantime play any of the shiny games on my PC. Edited March 18 by Oyaji Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
