Yeah!
Is the mp really as good as everyone says?

I'm blasting through the story mode pretty quickly, working through the Libertalia sections now. Holy fuck those two chapters in Madagascar were incredible! 4x4ing around in the mud was so much fun...and that chase scene...damn!
It is really fun. I haven't played it in awhile, but it is top notch.

I'm not a fan of PS4 Pro or Xbox X. It's only a matter of time before games are only playable on the premium version of a console.

Won't be 'premium' if it's 'default'. All they have to do is cancel the PS4 and Xbox1/S and say, "This is how you play the games".

It really is like the Apple model.

They don't bother me. A way to get better graphics/performance every 3 years rather than waiting the six or seven years of a console life cycle. They just need to make the PS5 backwards compatible with PS4 games and everything will be hunky dory.

$499 is a lot for a console. Sony can deliver a hay-maker to microsoft if it drops the price of the PS4 Pro to something like $249 when the Xbox X one X is released.

I'm guessing the Pro goes down to $350 and the PS4 Slim goes to $250 by the holidays. XBox One X (this is so dumb to spell out) is going to be a tough sell when the Pro can do 85% of what it can if you have the perfect setup (4k, HDR) and 95% if you have a 1080p TV.

On a somewhat related note, Battlefront 2 looks great.

Oh yeah. Battlefront 2 looks amazing. $350 is more realistic. If they drop it to $299 or lower Sony will corner the market. Hell $350 will probably do the job.

I'm going to wait and see how it turns out before picking up a Pro.

I haven't regretted upgrading to the Pro (I have a 4k/HDR TV). If anything, I'm excited that more games will have improvements with the existence of the X Box One X.

I haven't seen a thing out of E3 that has blown me away yet. XB1X/PSPro don't interest me until I get a better home setup. Most of the games aren't really grabbing me. Battlefront 2 could be awesome if they don't split the player base up as they've done with Battlefront and Battlefield 1. They've been putting all the DLC content on separate servers, so you can either get into a DLC lobby (different lobbies for different DLC packages) or a lobby for the main game. Stupid.

Word is Battlefront 2 won't be splitting the playerbase. They've been saying that all future DLC/maps will be free. I hated that they split up the playerbase that way. It was impossible to find a good match in any of the DLC packs unless they were having a free weekend.

I got a heads up from a friend that amazon Canada was pre-selling a bunch of games at crazy reduced prices - don't know if Amazon US was doing it as well. I got Battlefront 2 for 49.99. I don't know how they managed to do that and i won't be surprised if they made a mistake and try to cancel it lol, but it was worth a try.

I have a hard time getting interested in any MP that isn't Titanfall 2 at this point. This game has spoiled me.
