You're not going to laugh, you're just a Sony fanboy. Before this deal went through Bungie games were $70. Now that it's gone through, Bungie games are now $70. Wow, what a win for cows!

The Activision/Blizzard deal and Zenimax deals were different. Before the deal all their games $70. After the deal, they all will be included in Game Pass day one. That's something to look forward to for gamers.

The only reason you cheer the Bungie deal is because in your fanboy mind it delivers ownage to Microsoft.

I'm not cheering this deal, that's what your corporate boot-licking ass does. And those games will still be $70 for those that don't want to fall into the Game Pass trap.

Just stop fanboying for Sony so damn hard and take the L.

They said from the beginning the Acti deal was a much bigger deal and would take about a year to finalize. Sony buying Bungie is a much smaller deal.

I'm gonna laugh if the Bungie output is still better than Acti's though

When you delay everything for like five year straight, those titles are bound to come out one day🤡

Its like, they try to make it sound impressive, cuz you know, FIVE titles is insane, but if they weren't ignoring their playerbase for half a decade, more than half of those games would be already out, and they simply couldn't brag about anything for 2023.

Activision Blizzard and Zenimax say hi.

Do you now understand why Game Pass is so popular?

@Xplode_games: How is it free exactly?

For GP subscribers, they were going to pay $70 until Microsoft acquired Activision, now they will get it day one included with their membership. Meanwhile PC and Playstation owners will have to go ahead and pay the full $70.

That's about as free as you can get.

I suspect it will still be the same 30 ish percent jump from gen to gen in terms of actual FPS in games. either that or the top end cards will be comically expensive.

As a reminder: using Tflops alone to judge performance or make comparisons is very flawed. at the end of the day reviews remain the best source of information on actual performance.

I just hope both camps have more sane pricing, better availability, and further reduce the hit RT has on performance (especially on the AMD side but still applies to both camps).

I also hope intel come in and throw a wrench in the works (though its not looking good at the moment).

Yea, TFLOP numbers alone mean nothing in actual gauging gaming performance. Look at RTX 2080 vs RTX 3080, 10 TFLOPS vs ~30 TFLOPS a 3x jump in TFLOP but only gains on average 65% performance difference in gaming. So going from 30-40 TFLOP to ~100 TFLOP might yield upto 50% gains in normal gaming methods. Now when it comes to RT, I expect 2-3x the performance bump from both brands.

This makes sense to me. Let's see what happens.

All of this while the Switch can't even get to 1tflop🤡

If the next gpu's have a real massive jump, then there's no reason for me to get a current gen gpu even if i find what i want (FE 3060ti or FE 3070). Bet you with a 4070 in 1440p you'll be able to max everything out at over 60fps.

LOL at the Switch as we all know that is TC's primary platform.

With the recent spike in availability and prices dropping drastically, you don't have a new GPU because you don't really want one that much. Also, limiting yourself to only the FE cards is silly.

As for the next gen GPUs... I will wait for official specs. I hate rumours and speculation as they are usually started by attention whores trying too hard and have false and inaccurate information.

What a dumb ignorant statement that is. Why would anyone pay the blown up crap prices of GPUs today just because they are much lower than the absurd prices of the last two years? Who wants a $600 6700 XT or 3060 Ti with the new much better cards coming soon, everyone because you said so?

This is why I said we needed to wait for the NPD before calling Horizon dead. Top 3 YTD and top 5 for March. That kinda disproves the narrative going around on this board and Twitter…

I see a lot of Nintendo and Sony made games on those lists. Where are the Xbox games??? Y’all said you’re still buying them… Wouldn’t know from the charts…

Ever heard of gamepass?
