You might actually feel the opposite. Like when are we going to get an actual PS5 game? 2024 most likely.makes me wish I had a PS5

Horizon Forbidden West- Meet the Cast
Cool video, thanks for posting. They’ve got some pretty talented actors involved in this series.
If you have a Pro at least and you really enjoyed the first game, I wouldn't have any hesitancy getting it on PS4. I'm sure it'll still be 30FPS, but will still look great and be completely stable like the first game was.I dunno, it's going to be hard to resist just getting this on PS4. Likely won't be getting a PS5 any time soon and PC is probably 1-2 years out.
damn, am i the only one wating this model as aloy now? that would rock - imagine the very limber climbing bit from the first game.. done by this little cutieok, i found an actual unedited screenshot. now i can see what you guys are going on about

Fight? Elden Ring is within the realm of niche b/c From Software games are notoriously difficult so I think it won't be a fight if we are talking about sales numbers... HFW will sell millions.I didn't know Carrie Anne-Moss was in this until I saw that video...first Keanu Reeves in Cyberpunk and now her Matrix counterpart in this...Elden Ring vs Horizon Forbidden West is going to make for an interesting fight in February

Sales might be pretty close between Elden Ring and HFW. The first Horizon sold roughly the same #'s as Dark Souls 3 in spite of it being a Sony exclusive. That's only on the PS4 with no PC sales #'s and data from 2 years ago. Could be quite a bit more with PC sales and 2 more years taken into account.you're going to be in for a surprise...Elden Ring will outsell HFW...mainly because it's multiplatform

Well then I wouldn't be counting multi-platform sales... not really fair lol. I think it COULD be close, but Horizon is a system seller franchise and I think it will definitely edge out PlayStation sales in total. Honestly I could care less about sales numbers... I just hope the games are good and fun.you're going to be in for a surprise...Elden Ring will outsell HFW...mainly because it's multiplatform
Hmm, so what if you just buy the PS4 digital version? I would think the same would apply there too, but if that's the case, it would defeat the point of even selling a $70 PS5 version. I can't think of a previous game that this has happened to. I'm sure there are plenty of PS4 players out there that can't get a PS5 yet and will be buying the digital copy they want to play on PS5 (not with the BC PS4 version either) too when they eventually get one, so they should be entitled to the same free upgrade as the disc buyers.Reminder that this game is supposed to have a free upgrade from PS4 to PS5 versions. And the PS4 version costs $10 less.
So, if you don't mind a PS4 case and disc, you can get the game onto your PS5, for $60, instead of $70.
There have been a few games already, where the PS4 version is cheaper. And you can either upgrade for free, or for (usually) $10 ---- But still end up paying less, than simply buying the PS5 version.Hmm, so what if you just buy the PS4 digital version?

I'm pretty adverse to buying discs anymore. I'm just not interested in storing or worrying about losing/breaking them over time, esp. since I move every few years.
Edit: IGN is reporting that you can just buy the digital PS4 version as well and you'll still get both PS4 & PS5 versions of the game. Which makes most sense, but at the same time baffling as to why anyone would even spend the $10 extra on the PS5 version alone and not even have the option of playing on a PS4 if you still have one (rare use case, I know). I would actually like to have the PS4 version though since I still have my PS4 Pro that my kids play in case they want to play it on there too.
However, Horizon Forbidden West Is slightly unique. because its a situation where the PS4 and PS5 versions are releasing at the same time. So, its a new game on PS4, as well. Not a situation where the PS4 version has been out for a while.
Yeah, this is what I was alluding to; previously all PS5 ports/upgrades happened well after the game's initial launch on PS4, so I can see Sony or the publisher justifying a small fee for the second copy and upgrade to PS5 if they put a decent amount of work into improving the game. But launching a game on both platforms at different prices, but the older/cheaper platform game gets you both versions anyways just doesn't make sense whatsoever. So I can see why they aren't going to offer this free upgrade on cross-platform PS games in the future if they must charge $70 for PS5 games from now on.
You know it's interesting that games have essentially stayed the same price throughout the decades now despite being exponentially more complex and expensive to make. I know that is offset by how large of a business it is now compared to a few decades ago, but I wonder what the profit margins look like now with a game like CoD compared to Goldeneye 007 on N64 that was only made by a handful of people and made/sold millions as well.
COD Warzone makes over 5 million dollars every single day. The profit margins on COD are insane due to all the microtransaction bullshit in it.
It was the same when it wasn't free to play. Fifa alone makes over a billion annually off MT. Madden also makes a ton.Lol, yeah, but that's a free to play game too and a different business model. I would like to see the difference between two traditional $60 games with no DLC or micro-transactions like almost all of Sony's exclusives.
Same, hope you bought the PS4 version and saved $10 since you still get the PS5 version with it.Preordered it on PS5 preload on the 10th. I’m stoked.
Highly doubt it. Would be a nice option for me, but I still ended up preferring the controller on the PC HZD as I do for most 3rd person action/adventure games like this.Does anyone know if KB/M will be supported in this one?
Wow, forgot gyro aiming existed for a moment. But in games that support it, like BotW does, it definitely adds a nice bit of precision to aiming.Looks like gyro support is there! Good news, I could not aim with the PS4 version at all so I waited for PC. Now I'm not sure if I'll wait or not haha.
I think most every 3rd person action game has that now. I'd be shocked if it isn't still in there.In the first game, you were able to unlock the skill that allows you to aim in slo-mo while jumping, so you could basically cheese most combat encounters by constantly jumping and aiming. I wonder if they'll keep that skill in FW too.
