And XBox series X presumably.

Decima on XsX? How? On PC sure.

And XBox series X presumably.

Not sure Kojima will allow this. Is Death Stranding on Xbox ? Besides, there are going to be 2 SKUs of Xbox for next gen with 2 different specs, yes whether people like it or not, it's going to be the reality. I think many publishers, particularly Japanese ones, will continue to ignore next xboxes.

Maybe you were talking about Horizon Zero dawn ? Even less likely.

Exclusives are a big reason why people buy PS, highly unlikely they land on xbox. PC maybe, if anything.

Why not? XsX is similarly a PC, similar to PS5. Sony already have prior with multiplatform engines. Decima is being used by a third party already; why not more for cross-platform games?

Probably not as Sony will have a publishing deal*. I expect the Decima Engine has a high likelihood of appearing on XsX (in response to ultragpu'"can't wait to see Decima on PS5 comment).

* Might even be timed, with a GotY version being released in 2021/2022??

I think we thought of 1st party games, you'r right the engine Decima might actually be used in games that land on XSX.

Why would Kojima not want more people to play his insane game?

Why didn't he already announce a Xbox release for Death Stranding ?

I don't know. But you've arrived at the reason being Kojima doesn't want it, which doesn't make any sense to me.

There are other reasons like Sony simple not have ported/optimised the engine to Xbox One, or the quid pro quo for using the engine is Kojima not publishing on Xbox One in the same launch window as PS4. A creator not wanting more people to enjoy their creation seems the least likely reason.

 

[Shifty Geezer]

Perhaps the assumption is Kojima is a huge Sony fanboy?

 

[chris1515]

I think it means Sony was ready to publish the game with a release on PS5 and PC.

 

[PSman1700]

So, anyone considering Stadia over PS5?

Attempting to constrain Kojima using logic is a futile exercise. Nobody know why he's repeatedly tried to market games in established franchises as being not in that franchise, with cryptic names and even going as far as registering fake companies to disguise them. The reason is because he's Kojima, and that makes as much sense as it's ever going to.

Why isn't DS on Xbox? Because he's Kojima.

DF should revisit this article because this isn't true at all, nowadays. I am currently playing Gears of War Ultimate (gamepass PC) at 4k 60fps on a Ryzen 1500X and a humble 3GB 1060

Wasn't the one X going to be a GTX1080 killer? I remember something about that. What happened to that. Anyways, MS going to have the most powerfull console, two times One X performance. Sony double that of their premium current gen too, about 8 to 10TFs then? Dont kill me.

 

[BRiT]

Not with Jaguar CPU cores.

 

[PSman1700]

Not with any CPU cores, RX580 doesn't really match a 1080. One X is close to RX580/1060/70 sometimes.

I feel a lot better about a comment i made the other day where i brought up the Radeon Pro SSG in relation to next gen consoles now that i know that Richard was also thinking along those lines

 

[PSman1700]

Damn that's some promising tech from AMD, guess we will see such things coming in the future. One could get and buy it now but 7000 dollars seems abit expensive

I am a little bit affected by beer and fire water now, but I watched the video and my impression is that we will see some of this in the coming consoles. This has been my take on it when I first read the wired article with Mark Cerny on the SSD back in april. Am I wrong?
