Yeah for sure it does seem like racing games are where it's at for the highest nicest graphics. It's also one of those game genres that I really wish I liked because, you know, cars are cool, but I get SO BORED. I like looking at Forza clips sometimes though.
It's why I preferred arcade style racing games that don't rely heavily on realism nor realistic sports. That's the best part about steam: I got arcade racers for days.
I think of them as completely different genres. The whole appeal of Gran Tourismo is the simulation/recreation aspect of it being real cars.
I know they're separate genres, and that's the problem. These type of games have taken over the AAA industry. All for the sake of not damaging these cars too much or barely giving them a blemish. It hurts the advertising in eagles of these stupid car companies and manufacturers. Raycevick pointed it out last year. I get they have an "image" to preserve, but all these cars get totaled in different action movies and TV shows all the time. What makes video games so special or the exception where they're not allowed to have fun with this? It won't hurt their brand much at all; they know this.
According to pat: Origins aged the worse. Especially when trying to play AP. C. Version or get it running. You need a CD key code to a website that no longer exists. I'm so glad I never got into this franchise.
Always wanted that in a car chase game, because learning the tracks as you circle them over and over bores me. Same peripherals and physics as a racing game, but dense cities full of realistic street traffic and pedestrians. Not about going really fast. Think more Bullitt and Ronin. Defensive driving is more the focus. You can't step out of the car. The character is only on two feet in cutscenes. Points deducted for the deaths of innocents.
Thanks. Calling on Microsoft, of all things, as a counter to the consolidation efforts of another corp is genuinely the funniest thing I've heard all week.Report: Sony in Talks to Buy Kadokawa, Owner of Elden Ring and Dark Souls Developer FromSoftware - IGN
Sony is reportedly in talks to buy Kadokawa, whose subsidiary FromSoftware is behind smash hit Elden Ring, the Dark Souls and Armored Core games, and PlayStation exclusive Bloodborne.www.ign.com
Hey, Microsoft/Xbox, buy every American and European company you can get your hands on.
Also fuck Sony, every time they buy a corpo or exclusive deal, they gatekeep their games for 1-2 years and then release with a crappy port on PC. Trash company. I want to mod my games, and I want to not have to buy a fucking PS5-6 to play them, which I never used anyways when I had it.
This is why Lina Khan was insane to fight Microsoft on the COD merger; look at the business practices of Sony. They are dogshit.
Why the fuck would I buy a PS5-6 when I have a fucking PC to play 2-4 games that I want to play? Fuck Sony. Anti-trust them on single-player games for consoles already.
The other problem is that they are trying to be JP Disney. They will control almost all, if not a whole lot, of manga, anime, and light novels being sent over to the US. Corporate consolidation is shit, but Sony is in particular worse than Microsft. Sony bribes game companies to not sell games to both Xbox and PC; they are very anti-consumer. Look at Helldivers 2. It's only available in 80 countries, and you need it to play even fucking single-player games like God of War. It's not even about the exclusives. I will eventually get the stellar blade and FF7 Rebirth. I am fine, relatively speaking. It's the 100+ countries that don't get to play Sony games because they can't even have a PSN account that are the problem.

There's honestly not much difference between the two and anymore, it's just Sony is only slightly worse. I know about the whole crunchyroll and anime thing too.

This planet is full of fucking greedballs.
Even Congress, who never does anything, agrees.

Of course, Microsoft is anti-consumer in that they are one of the few companies that were sued by the fed government for being a monpoly. And I want ChatGPT, MS Azure, and even Excel to have competitors. And for that to happen, we need regulations and standard best practices.
This is only true because right now Sony is on top, and Microsoft isn't, or at least within the confines of gaming they aren't. If the roles were reversed, they'd be the same if not worse. If you think it wouldn't be, hoo boy, I have this primo bridge for sale.
No, they don't. If Sony was an American corp, their silence would be deathly.
Sony isn't on top in terms of OS, where they aren't even there. And I have argued for Linux.
I played Origins a couple years ago via Steam on my laptop. I don't remember all that stuff.
He tried both standard and steam and it still didn't work right for him. I think he had to play a hacked version to least get part of it running.
It might be problems occurring with a new purchase. If you bought the game in 2009 or thereabouts, all that stuff was sorted when it was active and doesn’t apply. So all this nonsense might just be if for some reason you’ve decided to jump into the franchise 15 years late.
