Man all the appealing next gen games are getting delayed.

Which is not really surprising. If its a great games, then developers will be willing to take more time, delay things and make sure they have perfected it as much as possible. But i would say that the quality of high calibre games coming this time around (from both MS and Sony), in the 1st year or two, is better at the start of this gen compared to others.

Honestly, PS5's launch lineup a thousand times better than Xbox's. Demon Souls, Spiderman, and Godfall are all pretty noteworthy games. In contrast, the Xbox side doesn't have anything that really stands out. The launch lineup is easily a W for the PS side, not a good start for Xbox.

Fixed it for you. Honestly, people have different tastes and will choose the system that offers the games that they want to play.

Well of course it's my opinion, does that really need to be stated every single time? Get a grip.

All the initialisms make me sad, but I guess that's just the modern video game industry for you.

For me, this is a clear win for PlayStation. There are several attractive, new exclusives I'd like to play. For Xbox, there's really nothing sexy. Halo Infinite at launch had the potential to make this a competition, but without its flagship franchise the Xbox lineup is pedestrian.



Isn't Gearst tactics also comeing to the older Xbox 's ?
ei. Xbox One S + Xbox One X ?

Its listed as a console exclusive, by OP but its not right?

You are right.  I apologize. I had a rough night and allowed myself to type crap I shouldn't of. Sorry.

Playstations line up is very strong. Its a shame Spiderman is not quite a full experience and Sackboy is clearly just a PS4 game running on PS5 hardware. I think everyone might be sleeping on All Stars Destruction, curious to get a better look at it

Thanks for formating that broken statement DroidKnight :) Hard to take his statement with any respect when he claims a thousand times better. Sony does have a slightly better launch lineup but you'll be paying for it. While on the Xbox side most will be included in Gamepass. 

When Spiderman was revealed to be coming to PS4 that really took some wind out of Sony launch lineup, Godfall only looks meh in my opinion and Demon Souls remake does look really good but the $70 price tag kinda sucks. Outside of the launch lineup the Playstation Plus Collection was a nice announcement from Sony. But, I would have liked Sony to talk about how these games will benefit from running on PS5 hardware. 

While I agree that Microsoft launch lineup is really missing Halo Infinite, there is so much to be said about Microsoft's value proposition for the upcoming console's launch. Not only do you get all of Bethesda games coming to game pass you will also get EA Play joining game pass for the Xbox Series Launch on Day 1. Microsoft is really killing it by showing how Series will make old games play and run better on a next-gen console. All these amazing service and value to Xbox customers more than make up for the delay to Halo Infinite. 

Since both launch Lineups are actually pretty weak, I personally believe Microsoft is doing a much better job for console appeal. With Xbox series X being more powerful it will also be the best place to play third parties games. I think Sony could actually turn the narrative around but they strangely went very quiet and have revealed so little about their console with the launch being almost less than a month away.
