Would be great if true! Very hyped for this and Ratchet.



Nintendo Switch Friend Code: SW-5643-2927-1984

Animal Crossing NH Dream Address: DA-1078-9916-3261

Depends on how well their remote working is affecting their work flow. Hopefully they can manage to get it out in 2021 but if not then that's okay with me, plenty of games to play in the meantime.



There's only 2 races: White and 'Political Agenda'
2 Genders: Male and 'Political Agenda'
2 Hairstyles for female characters: Long and 'Political Agenda'
2 Sexualities: Straight and 'Political Agenda'

Aiming for means they aren't comfortable to commit to 2021, but its still great news. I expect it'll arrive somewhere between fall 2021 and summer 2022.

PS5's first 12months is already looking leaps beyond PS4'S



Figures, the launch window is good enough as is with GT7, Ratchet and Spiderman MM.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles. 

 

Around the Network

Quite a bit of good titles to come in 2021 for the PS5. Along with this, Stray and Ratchet, it seems that Sony is putting many of its proverbial eggs in 2021 in terms of exclusives. That must indicate that the third party games will do a good bit of the heavy lifting for a bit until said titles arrive.


Now, this is not to say that either Godfall, GranTurismo 7 or Miles Morales will not push hardware. Nor am I saying that this year's multiplatform games are not promising enough to assist the sales of the PS5 either. I am stating though that this is a reminder that, while Sony does need good First Party Titles to attract new potential buyers, Third Party Titles are the games that will aide greatly in terms of both revenue and profit.

Hopefully covid doesn't make the game skip 2021.



I know I am very pleased because we hard that we wouldn't get GT7, Horizon 2 and an Insomniac game near launch and that it was impossible, and we ended up getting all 3 and in the case of insomniac a full game and a standalone game that could very well be near an average full AAA of other companies.

This was never going to be a launch title, or even within the first 6 months.
Hardware sales silly need it that soon

cadence of releases is also a good thing.

So then Feb 28, 2022? 5 years exactly? Sounds about right for PSV.
