PS5 for the exclusives now. God of War 2, HZD 2, Demons Souls, Spider-Man 2, etc. But I may consider getting a Xbox or a PC eventually if the Elder Scrolls 6 is a Microsoft exclusive (which it probably will be).

  • I really hope it's not but agree that it's very possible. Taking a franchise that's been multi-platform for the last two console generations and suddenly cutting out part of the fanbase would feel sketchy as hell, particularly after Phil Spencer's[quote]This deal was not done to take games away from another player base like that. Nowhere in the documentation that we put together was: 'How do we keep other players from playing these games?' We want more people to be able to play games, not fewer people to be able to go play games.[/quote] Calling it now, though, their idea of what this means is going to be holding ES6 ransom until Sony allows gamepass on PlayStation then playing the "We tried but it's THEM who don't want you to play," card. Same thing happened with [i]Minecraft[/i]. They insisted Nintendo and Sony require players to have an Xbox live account for crossplay. Nintendo agreed, but Sony didn't.

I've hoped for a while that they would do that as in theory that would allow PS5 to run Xcloud games.

  • It's a possibility but playing games through a console's non-optimized browser does not sound like a solid idea to me. There's a reason people buy PCs over just using the browser on consoles for email and google docs. And that's not to mention you could only stream games that way, not install them locally on your machine.
