The scale for Horizon just got bigger. I am not sure how, but it did.

It looks great, and I hope they iron out some of the issues from the original. I really like Aloy, so it will be fun to go on an adventure with her again. Especially one this big.

I’m starting to think we’ve reached a peak in terms of how good games can look because nothing much wowed me about this.

Overall the show was good. Not a Perfect 10 but better than the last Xbox show. They placed emphasis that all these games are running on PS5 and they made the effort to show as much gameplay as possible.

They revealed Sony/PS5 exclusives that got my interest, especially that Square Enix game - Project Aitha, I think.

The part where the show lulled was when they showed off a little too many indie games. Some of those look interesting, but a lot of them really weren't the best to showcase the power of a new console.

With that being said, it was a good mix of games, and I was pleased. Glad they revealed the console design, because the whole thing felt like a giant tease all the way through......lol.

They might be a cooling issue.

True. I'll let others test theirs before I lay it down.

I'll go for the disc version, because I intend to use the console as my 4K UHD player. But people who don't need it will probably save up to $50-100.

I'm calling it.

Disc Version: $500
Discless: $400

This was the first of these I've ever watched live. And the last. My God, that was tedious to sit through.

 

[X Knight]

Even if it wasnt designed for it I'll probably be putting it on its side.

I just think vertical only limits media cabinet placement.

 

[Zorro]

A lot of fun looking games and would like to try them but what interested me most was

Spider-Man: Miles Morales
Hitman
Time Loop
Resident Evil
Horizon

 

[DarthSkywalker]

I'm calling it.

Disc Version: $500
Discless: $400

I will say

Disc Version: $550-$600
No Disc: $450

Yep. If I have to leave this vertical I'll have to put it in the floor.

 

[Marvolo]

Are these games launch titles?

You are definitely not wrong. But it might just have to be that way.

I watched the last xbox youtube streaming and this WAS MUCH better. The only things missing were Uncharted and God of War.

I just think $500 is the max. especially, spec-wise, PS5 is slightly less powerful than Series X.

the final price point will be key.

 

[psylockolussus]

Are these games launch titles?

Nope. There's 1 game coming out in 2022. While Horizon didn't reveal its year of release.

 

[Shinobi Shaw]

Definitely getting the 2TB console and the one with the disc so people can see what tax bracket I'm in.

But I was super sold after RE8 and Spidey Miles. Just give us that damn Arkham game and it's a wrap.

 

[Sithborg]

Please tell me I won't need to use that stand to keep it in vertical position. Also, can it be used horizontally?

I saw you may need the stand for it to be horizantally. It does not look great on the side.

I’m starting to think we’ve reached a peak in terms of how good games can look because nothing much wowed me about this.

A lot of the issues is the limitations for streaming. The PS5 stream was only running at 30fps, so that is going to limit things.

 

[psylockolussus]

For my table, it will sit nicely next to my TV and ps4. I just hope itsnot too wide.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

I hope you are right, but this is why I think they have a disc-less version.

 

[Zorro]

What is the game with the astronaut and the little cyborg girl? Didn't see the name and just release as 2022.

That one really intrigued me

 

[DarthSkywalker]

A lot of the issues is the limitations for streaming. The PS5 stream was only running at 30fps, so that is going to limit things.

Even still, some of these looked amazing, and this is only the beginning. Imagine what God of War 2/5 will look like.

 

[psylockolussus]

Definitely getting the 2TB console and the one with the disc so people can see what tax bracket I'm in.

But I was super sold after RE8, GTA6 and Spidey Miles. Just give us that damn Arkham game and it's a wrap.

Gta6?

 

[Sithborg]

I hope you are right, but this is why I think they have a disc-less version.

Yeah, I think the discless version is a give-away that it isn't going to be cheap. Not sure how much they want to eat of the cost of an SSD.
