@Jakejames Lugo,

Stop making excuses for Sony. Street Fighter 4 didnt work for the “50% more powerful than XBOX ONE PS4”. Now, Street Fighter 5 doesn’t work for “the programming without limitations on the PS4 due to GDDR5”; is laughable.

Jakejames, there aren’t that many people trying to play Street Fighter on the PS4 on line. This is an ongoing issue with the PS4: see Drive Club.

There’s no excuse for games with no options not working for the PS4, as PSN is a “paid” service now.

@The Podcast Crew,

Splitscreen Campaign Co-op is very important! However, it won’t affect me, as my daughter will have her own XBOX ONE. We’ll Campaign Co-op that way. I am disappointed it isn’t there.

However, I feel for the kids that can’t afford 2 consoles to play Campaign Co-op. Families Campaign Co-op all the time, I’m about to play Gears of War 1, on XBOX ONE, in Campaign Co-op with my daughter.

343s reasoning was there’ll always be 4 players on screen & the maps are enormous.

I’m on record; accurately predicting sales for holiday 2015.

Halo 5 will sell 7 million units by December 31st 2015. 3+ million in October, 3+million in November, and the rest in December.

XBOX ONE destroyed the PS4 last November & December 2015.

This year will be worse.
XBOX ONE will win October, November, and December easily.

And as I said weeks ago: The XBOX ONE will be the North American Sales leader by December 31st 2015.

…imo
1. This gen’s “split-screen co-op is outdated” is last gen’s “Rumble is a last gen feature” Ask yourself. If the Witcher 3 didn’t have rumble when you first played. Would you notice? (still don’t care about rumble or Xgame chat <- finally got it on ps4. what's the big deal again?)
2. Ya'll want Sony to let US pick through ALL their games every month? …lol!!! (that's what it sounds like)
3. Scalebound looks dope! Looks like a polished Drakengard.

In reply to Gority. I agree, CG trailers don't always get me excited. Unless I already know what the game series is about.

Hey guys, just a heads up this episode isn’t showing under the Podcasts section, at least not for me anyways.

I’m excited to see Crackdown, SB, and QB. Those three games may persuade me to buy an X1 when they release depending on what they are like.
I really don’t like when a new IP is announced with a CG trailer, for example ReCore, especially when it’s coming out in supposedly less than a year. I’d be surprised if it does come out then but MS is probably the best of the big three about releasing games when they say. When ScaleBound was announced without gameplay and just a CG trailer that was a bit more acceptable since that was earlier in the generation. Dreams technically had “gameplay” but not really, nobody knows what it’s actually like so I’d lump it into the same category. However, both Sea of Thieves and Horizon were new IPs that had gameplay and showed much better for it in my opinion. For Honor did as well, but I’m not sure that’s my cup of tea.
