Well they kinda are and I called this a while back. The PS5 Pro will coincide with GTA 6. Not exactly at release but it will be it's selling point. GTA 6 will release in March 2025. PS5 Pro will launch in November so just a few months off.

 

Also, everyone should be prepared in just how stunning GTA 6 will be. The Pro will be needed to fully see its potential. 

I mean, I dunno if I'd consider a multiplat third-party game a "tentpole franchise." Better than launching with nothing, but I feel like GTA players would still buy it on the PS3 if it released there, let alone buy a premium console just to see 4k flipflops.

I have yet to fail to just get into the game normally. Weird. Every time I open it, it plays just fine.

Alabama pretending to care about kids will never not be hilarious.

There any way to speed up/skip the mission results XP/money tally? It feels obnoxiously, pointlessly slow in a game that otherwise tries to avoid being obnoxiously slow.

If my buddy I conned into getting the game is less than reliable I might be interested in playing with some of you, even tho I am not the type to do that usually (due to paralyzing fear tho no big deal). 

I'd consider it but you have to be okay with me constantly berating you for not playing well and also judging your personal life!

So then you’re saying the random idiots your following aren’t saying the stuff you think they should say when the people who do, exist on said platform.

No, I don't follow anyone on Twitter. I'm talking about examples in this thread. That's all. Dial it back.

They are, you just aren’t noticing it. Unity has an AI solution, adobe did firefly, etc.

I'm more talking about the Twitter types who are like "WHAT IF AI COULD DRIVE YOU TO WORK USING THE CLOUD WHILE YOU SMOKED CRACK IN THE TRUNK"

Between oatmeal cream pies and nutty bars for me.

That said... I know it's not Little Debbie but damn Nutty Bars reminded me of Nutter Butter wafers.

Could eat these fuckers all day.

Yeah, because it impacts video games and it's an easy example on a video game forum.

Product does not come from some magic asshole. Time, effort, and resources are required. All in a physical basis. Is this really worth it for you?

Are you doing a Jordan Peterson impression?

This reminds me of those crypto bros that tried to sell NFTs in games as "Imagine you don't have to find a gun in the game, you could buy it, and then sell it when you're done with it to another player".  Those were people who don't play games and I'm pretty sure these people don't read a whole lot of books.  This does answer the burning question I've always had:  Who the fuck reads those terrible AI generated Kindle books people shit onto Amazon?

It's so weird that they skip straight to "what if [worst idea possible]" instead of what if it made it a trillion times faster and easier to generate decent assets for things like games or movies that are absurdly expensive and time consuming and are a large part of the reason the gaming industry is starting to take a billion fucking years to release games?

AI has amazing potential uses, and these dipshits can't even fathom them because they don't know what the hell they're talking about.

I haven't got to play too too much of this yet (GPU was out for RMA for like a week, I felt like a fucking caveman) but damn the little I played was good. It's 100% Starship Troopers: The Game. Listening to a fucking NPC on your ship sadly talk about how "these aliens just won't accept freedom, no matter how many times we deliver it to them" is so good.

This had fallen completely off my radar! Picked it up via GMG. Installing now! Not sure if I'll have time to play it at the moment... (Granblue Relink, Persona 3 Reload, Islands of Insight, Helldivers 2, Tomb Raider remasters, Nayuta, Apollo Justice, Infinite Wealth, Gylt, Crisis Core before Rebirth, Star Ocean 2nd Story, Cocoon, etc etc LET ME BREATHE JESUS) but I'll check it out ASAP. Atmosphere seems great!

You INHALED fentanyl? Based on what I've seen from cop reactions, I assume you caught on fire and then died three times?

That dude's not greasy at all! I can get ten times greasier than this!

Why would Sony advertise that they aren't releasing any big existing franchise titles until March 2025? How does that help them financially?

Alright so you know how Nintendo is good at business?

Sony is the opposite of that, they've just kind of been coasting on "let's keep doing everything the same, forever" for like a decade. Gamers are creatures of habit, so this largely works, but if you watch the small stuff they do all the time, you'll see they're just absolute numbnuts.

This is really where the industry should be heading... game consoles should be basically like TV's or DVD players. Different companies could make them, but they play everything (except Nintendo). Console exclusves hurt the business more than help, especially with game development being so expensive. Imagine if Sony movies and music ONLY worked on Sony devices... it's a stupid business model.

I've been saying this almost verbatim for years! I think the concept of exclusives is dumb as shit. 

Also:

Bring flamethrowers, they're the only way to melt his waxy facade!

On the bright side, California has been almost completely out of drought status (just a few "abnormal dryness" areas far inland) for pretty much the first time in my life, and for a protracted period of time! The water knife shall be ours! Or whatever that story was about.

Ok my wife and I just signed up. I went through the process and picked the topics that interested me. Takes me to a homepage or whatever and the first two posts I’m seeing are some nobody’s whining how they “as a blue sky elder” should have had a say in making bluesky open to everyone. My wife signed up and the first post she saw was a post asking “what is an orgasm?” And the answer was “when you draw a bird on a piece of paper and fold it in half”.

Neither of us plan to ever use bluesky again.

I can't imagine what your first reaction to Twitter was!

I mean, as far as I'm concerned the PS5 exclusive has barely been better than the Xbox lineup. Partly due to the fact that a lot of these PS5 exclusives don't appeal to me, but also partly because they're boring and lack ambition. Getting rid of Japan Studio was insane, and no Sony generation has ever come close to the fucking insane quality of exclusive (including third-party exclusive) games that the PS2 had. Even the PS3 had a lot more weird shit. Feels like since PS4/XB1, the big exclusive side of things has gotten really dire and lame outside of Nintendo, who genuinely seem more ambitious with their games a lot of the time, even when they're playing it safe.

Tucker Carlson is in Moscow, and is apparently going to interview Putin.

 

I hope the Ukrainians take this opportunity seriously.

Game looks so much better with motion blur turned off. The motion blur in this game has some real fuckin' Nintendo Please Hire This Man energy. Also, now that Atlus of all companies is just casually using raytraced reflections on random mirrors in crowded hallways that reflects the entire crowd, no one else has an excuse anymore! This is the company who released their last mainline game on the fucking PS3 in damn near 2017! And it ran well on there because it wasn't doing anything technically impressive!

IF ATLUS CAN DO IT, YOU MOTHERFUCKERS CAN DO IT TOO
