Not exactly. Monthly games are going away for a set collection.

And base console GP not having online play makes no sense, especial when you also consider a price increase.

Damn, no more games to keep on your account? Yikes! I consider this to be a downgrade from Gold :ROFLMAO:

The only thing that worries me is that this might encourage Sony to reshape the excellent PS Plus Essential into PS Plus Extra Lite, which would suck big time!

The collection will be updated 2~3 times a year, it will have more games than what GwG offered.

and GwG were offering shit-tier games for a few years now. The last decent game that came on it was Portal 2.

I don't think MS is making a strong case for Core and regular Console Game Pass. You miss out on GP titles on the former, and the ability to play online in the latter, yet are more or less the same price. They're basically funneling you to just get Ultimate, which is the most expensive option in terms of money and reward points. PC Game Pass gets all the features of Ultimate for the lowest price. The only exception being xCloud which is a reasonable trade off imo.

Poor Series S. With MS even taking away its ability to run emulation, it's bordering on being paper weight at this point and cross-gen has just ended for the most part.
You can still get dev mode on Series S (and X), the only thing they took was the retail emulation, which should never have been allowed lol. People were uploading emulation videos and screenshots on XBL servers, big legal issue.

Technically yeah but they've made it a huge PIA according to DF to the point that they recommend using a spare console for it for best experience.

DF clearing alot of misconceptions for people who got excited over FSR3 on consoles.


"Console FSR 3 Reality Check"

"PSA: FSR 3 won’t fix console performance"
Computational performance cost isn't trivial even on 7900 XTX, so the feasibility on a console GPU (5700) could be problematic.

You need base fps target of 60fps in games. This won't be helping 30fps games at all.

Anti-lag features could add additional performance cost and Anti-Lag+ is currently limited to 7000 series.

Pro consoles were needed yesterday.

    You reap what you sow. This is what happens when you take away choice from consumers. Even with 88% split going to developers, they can't recoup costs. Meanwhile, Helldivers 2 is a massive hit for Sony thanks in big part to Steam.
