And yet they still manage to have robust and respected first party studio offerings.  That is the key difference.



I expect more than half of it to be about system specs and features and less than half of it on games. Yawn.



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

Super excited!

Between what I know is coming and superior multi-platforms I'll be snagged her day one (barring a crazy $600+ price point).

My PS4 Pro already powers Sony exclusives so I'll be set for the remainder of the gen.

Still need to snag a Switch as soon as I can find one and offload my Wii-U for a decent price.



Halo 4k is going to the highlight! And 4k versions of everything else!!!!
Plus a 399 price! And 4k upscaling for other X11 games!!!!

Beat me to it, but yeah. Essentially while managing multiple studios it's inevitable that some will be closed, either because of reshuffling, disappointing sales, redundancies etc.

However to close a studio of the level of Lionhead, which has been more historically relevant to the industry than any that Sony closed, after trying, and failing, to turn Fable into a game as a live-service, is quite disheartening.

U OK hun?



Only Crackdown 3 has reasonable hype behind it. State of Decay 2 is cool but it's not a giant system seller or even that relevant (much like cuphead) and forza 7 is very much expected.

I am interested in the Scorpio and what it will bring. Could be a knock out if the price is right but him calling it a premium hardware makes me think $500+
