So apparently there won't be that huge difference in ssd speeds. Another good thing for gamers. Better having two very fast consoles than just one. :)

I'm happy if that's the case. Having one console with a significantly faster SSD was always going to be an issue for multiplatform games (not utilized properly). If they're both in the same ballpark we might start seeing some innovative use of SSD technology.
 
Latest leaks show a pcie4.0

Qunlian? Never heard of it, also, whoever wrote that article clearly has no idea of what he/she is talking about, they've got it all mixed up. If Qunlian really provides the SSD, they don't provide the controller because the controller is from Phison. Also, the part that says "This is almost certainly the PCIe 4.0 version", proves that they're not really 100% sure about wether it's 3.0 or 4.0. So yeah Idk, the whole article screams bs to me.

Qunlian is Phison.

Invites in 2 weeks , event 2 weeks later right after the end of the monthly event (last day Feb 16). Last time Osiris gave a countdown to the event back in December it pretty much coincided with around/past middle of the month.
 
State of Decay is every bit as good as Days Gone, and no Xbox player says its a AAA game.

I think it's worth noting that AAA has less to doubt with quality and more to do production, scale, visuals, content etc.
So yes, State of Decay is not AAA. Days Gone is. But that doesn't automatically mean one is better than the other.

AAA mean budget not quality.
It is how much money you used to make that game.

While State of Decay is not a Indie level game in terms of budget and it is nowhere close to AAA.

Days Gone is AAA thought.

I already said you need to change your name to Rightiswrong because you have no ideia of what you are talking about in most posts ;)

I bought my one x~4 months after release for $350, brand new. They have been $350 since launch through newegg and their coupon list. They've also been forever discounted to $350 at the MS store.
Walmart has all Xbox at Black Friday prices at the moment. Even 149$ all digital version.

They are the equal of each other. Just like Forza and GT. Sony fanboys will say Days Gone better, and Xbots will say State Of Decay is better.
Last person to take serious about an Xbox game is a Sony fanboys.
Just go and compare the reviews for both, and they are the equal.

imo, if days gone were Xbox exclusive it would be the best AAA exclusive for them this entire gen
yep days gone is really good. not counting death stranding and bloodborne since they are third party sony exclusives, i'd rank days gone in the top five.

- gow
- horizon
- spiderman
- days gone
- the last guardian

definitely rank it above the two uncharteds, infamous, and ratchet. its an excellent game. no idea wtf the critics were smoking when they rated it that low.

Well that means Halo Infinate is a AAAAA game then if it's just about money.
So how much was the budget for Days Gone? And what is the dollar value that determines AAA from AA? And then how much did State of Decay 2 cost?
I mean, you must know these numbers to make the claim you did.

Halo Infinite is indeed AAA.

So by your logic Sea of Thieves is AAA.
Rare is a bigger than SIE Bend, and has more resources. You have low standards for a AAA game, as is seen by you saying Days Gone is AAA.

Rightisright Rightisright

So one of the PS5 leaks will turn out to be correct, and with things getting closer, which one is starting to stand out?
The Reddit leak is in the lead for me. The one that had the "time to play" slogan right.
It also had the event location correct for the reveal right. The leak said the 5th of Feb was the date, so it seems they have the month right.
If it does turn out correct it has the PS5 at 10tflops (most likely 40cus @ 2.0 ghz).
The 10tflop number seems to be picking up speed as well.
 
Sea of Thieves is indeed AAA.

BTW Days Gone used $7.9m with only with TVs ads in April 2019... it was the first big-budget (AAA) project from Sony Bend.
Nah, sea of thieves is a online game that is pretty much given away. Has no campaign and is in no way AAA. Hence why your claim of money determining AAA status is wrong.

My claim? lol

AAA is defined by the budget used in the game (that include development and marketing budget).

That is not my claim.

It is the industry definition to AAA.
Sea of Thieves is AAA because the budget reached the AAA level.

Again, what is the dollar value cut off for a AAA title.

Work is probably best it is now over drive on click bait for false stories until Sonys technical conference. I just get a kick out of how creative people can be.
That's very true, I wonder if anything said is even close to the truth... Even though I want to believe sometimes.

the game was never going to review well with the woke critics in gaming journalism. Too much toxic masculinity about a biker gang in flyover country That doesn’t perfectly align with their ridiculously narrow minded view of the world

you remember that Patrick Klepek review? It’s laughable. I hate how every single game needs to have a political or moral compass attached to it.


A game about a man with a code, a code that involves selling people to a slave trader and pretending you're morally conflicted about it.

It is not fixed because it changes however the game development and marketing costs increase but in late 2000s (PS360) it was about over $20m with some games like Halo 3 reaching $70m.

Today the cut is probably bigger.

Days Gone marketing budget is probably over $20-30m plus the development budget put it in the AAA level.
Same for Sea of Thieves.

Ok, so you claim one title is AAA the other not, because of the budget of those games. You don't know the budget for the games in question, nor what dollar amount dictates what is AAA.
Basically, you have no idea.

Says the guy that have no ideia what AAA is :messenger_tears_of_joy:

These games I said that are AAA are well know in the industry as being AAA. Even if I don’t know (and I don’t need to know) how much budget the gaming industry says it is AAA.

Spining false claims won’t make you right.... Wrongiswrong.
