Dragon Age The Veilgaurd and Metaphor ReFantazio is the plan

These look nice, I might apply them

I'm enjoying my time with the game so far, I don't need to worry how well the game is doing for some confirmation bias thing.

@Steel76 Sounds pretty bad, but the majority of AAA games now use aggressive upscaling to hit an output resolution and frame rate that is acceptable. You won't actually see 540p. The image won't look great on a 4k TV but native 540p would look blurry on a switch let alone a screen any bigger.

@kuu_nousee It's easier to monetize the online echo chamber of hate. Loving things that aren't "in" like BG3 isn't profitable, despite BG3 and DAV being both what some would regard as progressive. Most large YouTube gaming channels are like Ubisoft, they copy trends for profit.

I just brought the elite ultra on sale for £130 haha

Feel like this might get delayed out of Feb.. no pre orders or store page to commit to that date and a ton of AAA games due out very close by in Feb.

Roll on Thursday! Looks like something I will enjoy.

@NORTHERN_beat Yeah that's what I meant I got them mixed up haha

It's why a lot of developers are doing a *staggered launch to counter this trick.

Edit *Simultaneous

Glad Sony was not allowed to money hat another game. Square learnt the hard way that it doesn't make financial sense especially keeping the game off PC.

Great game and 100% GOTY material.

That's a smart business decision.

Looking forward to this game, even some of the particularly skeptical reviewers like Luke Stephens seems to be positive about it. I think it will do reasonably well outside the echo chamber.

Happy to see this likely has a 60fps mode on series s. I got a series x now but glad got those still ok the x.

Maybe I should sue Sony for Concord. That game was a crime against wallets.

Looks good, glad to see more game tie ins available to a wider audience.

I'm looking forward to this one, day one for me.

Looks nice but I was able to get a new disc Series X for £429. I will probably never use the disc drive but it is nice to have.

@TheSimulator They have done this recently Mena Sato Kato

@NEStalgia Kind of the same as SIE having 2 CEO's

Looking forward to this, my expectations are in check though. It's going to be better than most of what Sony has to offer on the showcase front that's for sure.

Metaphor: ReFantazio, the only correct answer.

100% want more DLC for Hogwarts Legacy.

Upgrading to the standard Series X as I was able to get it new for the same price as the digital but the white does look good though.

Can't wait to get stuck into this.

@Ricky-Spanish Yes there are many who both like and dislike it so it's not objectively good or bad. Yes I've enjoyed my time with the game overall, it's definitely not perfect though.

@Ricky-Spanish Medicore in your subjective opinion

@RentedPanda I'm kind of curious if Avowed will get delayed out of Feb as AC Shadows is there now to really pack the month out.

I'm looking forward to the game, day 1. Nice to see the comments section not a complete hate train like PS.

I enjoyed the game like many other I know, and I don't think there is an issues with devs who have worked on something for years, being proud of their contribution.

Looking forward to Metaphor: ReFantazio

Enjoyed the base game and now I'm enjoying the dlc.

I enjoyed the base game and expected more of the same so enjoying the DLC too.

Nice to see that are plenty of people actually enjoying the game rather than just presuming it's bad without playing. I'm enjoying my time with it so far. I feel like post pandemic the majority of very good games just aren't good enough for the "hardcore" fanbase across all systems. It has to be 10/10 or it's trash. I think digital foundry has a lot to answer for in players over analysing sometimes very minimal things. I didn't even know what FPS, frame pacing, RT and upscaling tech were until I watched their videos. I think I was happier when I didn't know any better. Now it feels like almost everyone online is an expert to either back up or trash a game.

I enjoyed the game and I'm now I'm enjoying the dlc

No problems for me, obviously I quit out of quick resume like you are supposed to when updating. I really enjoyed the base game and looking forward to this. DLCs don't often get reviews day one but I expect this will review fairly well like that base game.

Since AC Shadows is moving to Feb, does that mean a delay for KKD2 or Avowed, I can see at least one of these being delayed into March or April as Feb is getting very crowded and as much as people are hating on AC Shadows/Ubisoft online it will sell a lot more now with that steam day 1 and impact sales of others maybe except MH Wilds.

@bazchillin Managed to download it now, Thanks! I'm guessing they will fully announce this for others tomorrow.

Any ETA on when the UK demo will drop?

If this is anything near as incredible as that all time great summer showcase I will be very happy.

This is the game I'm most looking forward to for 2024.

You get what you pay for.

February is always a cracker for game releases!

Selling nearly 30 Million consoles in less than 4 years is nothing to sniff at, especially when all the games are available on PC day one so there a basically no exclusives. 7 million units shipped in just over a year in what has been a terrible PR year for Xbox is also not too shabby. They have moved beyond the aged metric of most consoles = most profit into where the real money is (Software).

I'm planning on getting a Series X for the rather stunning looking MS Flight Sim 24. (Surprised PX hasn't reported on it yet).

Turning RT off won't do much for FPS as the limitations are linked to the npcs - around a 1000 of them simultaneously simulated at a time. The RT on this game also looks really good. They need to optimise that. Have the option to turn of motion blur or cap the framerate at 30fps are good quality of life improvements though.

@Theaussiegamer92 Luckily you don't need to play the 1st one if you don't want to.

P3R expansion pass for £0 extra rather than £29 extra is a huge W.

Dragons Dogma 2 and Rise of the Ronin have all my attention this weekend.

Harold Halibut is a great addition! Another amount of money saved right there.

None of these dlc affect the game. You can get everything and sometimes better versions of things in the game. Anyone would think these are compulsory purchases based on the rage-bait
