And still managed to be a much better show than May and July Xbox events together =p

That’s debatable now. Considering the entire anti cross gen narrative smugness/elitism suddenly evaporated. It’s a good trade. You guys get a good show and I get a favourable narrative shift. 

Well if you get the time to read the thread you`ll see at least 4 people complaining of crossgen, and sure some happy because they`ll be able to play on PS4 without needing to buy PS5 and sure the guys like you and ludicrous that got happy because of the console war =]

I mean, Xbox fans get a slight narrative shift, but it hasn't entirely evaporated. Demon's Souls, Ratchet, GT7 & GoW are all true PS5 exclusives, the former coming at launch, looking like the most graphically impressive next generation title. 

At least the "cross generation isn't holding games back" argument can finally be put to rest if Xbox fans want to bask in the HFW news lol.

Well Demon`s Souls is still somewhat grey area isn`t it? I know that it was confirmed to not go to PC, but was it confirmed that a port to PS4 won`t be made? But being a remaster I don`t think it getting a PS4 version would cause complains (just like Spider Man wouldn`t), I guess from the titles announced only Horizon 2 causes a raised eyebrow so far.

Now if I can only get a 3080. My holiday shopping would be complete!

Oh yes. This year is totally going to be wallet breaker (but worth it!). Going to be an amazing time for games, despite a write off of a year.

Still need to decide what GPU I want this year lol.

Yeah, Kotaku has confirmed it as a PS5 exclusive.

Well then until other news surface that is what we have to go with.

Got my Pre-order all done from Best Buy Canada as well, I went with the standard edition too.

Waiting to preorder on Amazon tomorrow, but won`t really commit until November comes and the dolar perhaps is lower or I saved some money.

Both sides have cross gen and true exclusives, it’s more or less even now. I think you guys would still have it if Horizon wasn’t affected. Spiderman MM and Sackboy you could get away with but not Horizon.
