![]() ![]() I’ve got enough Microsoft Points to get a few months of Game Pass for free, so I’ve signed up in order to download Forza Horizon 5 – 110GB! Forza Horizon 4 is about 80GB so that’s a fair chunk bigger.Īnyway, I always wanted to try Microsoft Flight Simulator, so now’s my chance… I have 100Mbps internet and boy it still took an age to download… 130GB! Just wow! I’ve never really had a problem with this, some games are permanently on my PC (my racing sims mainly) others kind of come and go depending on what I’m playing.Īnyway, I’ve got family staying later this week and I know the kids love playing arcade racers with my wheel and super ultrawide monitor. In my PC I have a 1TB NVME SSD and a 2TB hard drive, unsurprisingly all my games go on the SSD and the hard drive is purely for files and photos, etc. So, with Sony announcing the ability to use an 8TB SSD it got me thinking about game sizes and how huge they are now. I know the start of it wasn’t anyone’s fault but this whole generation seems to be stuck in quicksand, its wheel’s spinning as nothing ever moves forward. Also, it’d be a bit unfair on last gen owners if it was only the last one they couldn’t play. What are the chances now that the final Jedi game will? It’d be pretty weird if the third one was suddenly something on a completely different scale and complexity than the first two. It’s frustrating that so many games are failing to take advantage of the new consoles. From that perspective I don’t know why it wasn’t cross-gen from the start. I wonder what happened to make them suddenly think that was a good idea, all this time after launch? I guess they just thought it was easy money?Īlthough it does underline what was obvious at launch: Survivor doesn’t take advantage of the new consoles in any meaningful way and could – and now will – easily have been on the old ones as well. This seems pretty basic marketing logic to me and in this instance, I think Nintendo will prove surprisingly predictable.Īn unexpected move by EA to make last gen versions of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor. If they announce it early next year, they upset everyone that got a Switch for Christmas. If they announce it this summer or autumn they ruin sales of the original this year. I think, I mean I know it’s Nintendo but in this instance I feel pretty confident about predicting I’m right.įor me the only timeline that makes sense is announcing it next summer and releasing it at Christmas. Maybe Nintendo will be meeting developers about it, maybe even showing it off to them, but I don’t expect we’ll see any sign of it in public and it sure isn’t going to be something people can see and play there. I don’t think the Switch 2 is going to be at Gamescom. ![]() So I hope that I can finally pick up a next gen console that’s both better looking and cheaper than what came out at launch. ![]()
