The Daily Moot: PS5 Backwards Compatibility
News Picks1. PS5 Backwards Compatibility
The backwards compatibility of the upcoming PlayStation 5 is coming under scrutiny after an Ubisoft support page seemed to leak that the console’s abilities will be limited. Specifically, the page said that the PS5 will only be backwards compatible with PS4 games, and that the PS5 will not work with PS3, PS2, or PS1 games. Considering that both Sony and Microsoft have been touting their upcoming consoles’ backwards capabilities, it would certainly seem that the Xbox Series X would have an edge if this news is true. Sony has yet to comment on the matter, but the Ubisoft support page has now been modified to remove any mention of backwards compatibility.
2. League of Legends Samira The next League of Legends champion, Samira, has been revealed. Described as a “gifted, ruthless marksman who charges up her style meter as she hunts for the flashiest kill,” Samira’s kit looks to have a bit of everything. With guns, knives, swords, dashes, resets, and more, Samira looks incredibly fun to play but also extremely difficult to balance. It’s unclear when Samira will arrive, but she is available on PBE servers now. You can check out the reveal trailer for Samira below.
3. Sims 4 Star Wars Star Wars will soon be making its way to The Sims 4. Called Journey to Batuu, the pack will include things such as spaceships, lightsabers, and familiar Star Wars characters. Journey to Batuu will also have a story campaign where players will have to side with either The Resistance, First Order, or the “scoundrels.” The Journey to Batuu Game Pack is set to arrive on September 8; you can check out the reveal trailer below.
4. Tellstones: King’s Gambit Riot Games continues to put the “s” in “Games” as they have now announced a new tabletop game called Tellstones: King’s Gambit. Described as an “unforgettable game of bluffing, strategy, and recollection from the world of Runeterra,” Tellstones: King’s Gambit marks the second tabletop game from Riot following the release of Mechs vs. Minions in 2016. There’s no word yet on when the Tellstones: King’s Gambit will launch, but Riot released a cinematic trailer for the game today which you can check out below.
5. Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes, the spiritual successor to the classic game Suikoden, has completed its incredibly successful Kickstarter campaign. Raising more than $4.5M, Eiyuden Chronicle is now the third most successful video game Kickstarter in history; first place belongs to Shenmue 3 with $6.3M. Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes isn’t set to come out until 2022, but the developers released a short gameplay teaser last month which you can watch below.
P.S. We've got some great events happening right now on Moot with awesome prizes up for grabs. Check them out below! Rainbow Six Siege Event (Week 6):
Back to School Event:
Well dam, I guess I'm buying a PS3 since this PS5 won't play my PS3 games...
just like the Xbox is one small ass fridge
lyno idk I read "Day 1: Daddy?"
I was half asleep so idkSkilled_lord1 lmao that was a joke with a friend of mine lmao i deleted it
It looks like a pc. People are mad that the series x actually has a chance this time around. Even then why not just get a pc, it plays everything
to me more of a mini desktop computer ports in public schools if you remember those times from 15 years ago XD
Ey! it's a powerful fridge meant for soda cans.
And you router is good as Well.
We both have not the best designs for consoles.Wifi routers are better for gaming then a small fridge
you can play games on a Samsung smartfridge, you can't play games on a router. So you're wrong
And without a wifi router you can't play online, and should it really matter what you play on? Its if you are having fun is important, and also, I said small fridge, not smart fridge
Yh, but the Xbox doesn't look like a fridge so that is an invalid point
It fucking does mate, and if the new xbox does not look like a fridge, then ps5 doesn't look like a wifi router
Amazingrose718 I don't even think it looks like a router
HAD3S DC So, let me get this straight, someone criticized the way a ps4 looked, so I criticized the way a xbox looks, you think both of us are incorrect but you only target me? You see the problem?
Amazingrose718 I target you because you dissin the xbox
Amazingrose718 For good reason. It looks like apple and Alienware had a baby by combining an egg that survived a period, and a sperm sample left out for 20min in the desert.
HAD3S DC You literally said something that the human mind can not image
HAD3S DC this man just speakth the language of the holy ones
Yeah but the community is split, by the end of the day I tell people to get a pc because that's where the community stops being split
This review has been deleted.
Although I'm a ps4 player, you should not be one to judge who wants what console, having fun is what is important
No it's retarded. You don't need Xbox anymore these days when everything is on pc now. Why pay for a obsolete product.
Can you play all PS4 games on pc? No. So let me talk slower for you. All you need is a PC and P S 4 to play everything with almost anyone.
And all games exclusive to ps4, pc has a better version
Amazingrose718 What's a better version of god of war. What game is exactly like god of war with the same good heavy story behind it.
Afce22 So, one game out of how many? Ps4 doesn't have many better games than pc, and pc easier out weighs ps4 with better games as PC has alot of better games then the ps4 exclusive ones. And like I said before, who cares what console you go on? If you have fun it's fine
lyno We are just having a conversation. If you're one of those pussies who don't like have opposing ideas and having a conversation about it then you can go.
Afce22 imagine that a group of friends doesnt have enough money for having a good pc and want to play siege as a group, xbox does it lol (thats a very specific example but could be something) like that
Amazingrose718 You went around the question. You said pc has better version games than PS4. I ask for an example. I also wasn't talking about what's better. I'm talking about you can't play these exclusives on pc. So I'll ask again for an example. What is a better version of god of war.
Afce22 retarded was kinda offensive but i see your point, but other people may have a relation with the consoles or something. also god of war if fucking goat
Afce22 And I answered that question, I said that's one game that you can not get on pc for a better version, but it is only one game that does bot have a better version on pc. There are others like this but not alot at all
Amazingrose718 So what about last of us pt1. What's a better version than that. Pt 2 was trash so. What about that
Afce22 I'm going to be real with you, that just felt like uncharted with zombies
Amazingrose718 So what game on pc is a better version than that. Oh and uncharted isn't on pc as well as far as I know.
Afce22 There are tons, I honestly didn't even like uncharted that much to be honest
Amazingrose718 Which will be a exclusive for PS4 if Konami strikes a deal with Sony.
Afce22 The closer I could find is that any new games they make will be exclusive to the ps5, therefore some of the metal gear solid games will still be on pc and could be better then the rest as well as that they might not make another metal gear solid game
Amazingrose718 I agree with that. Because all you need is a pc or PS4. But if they strike a deal with Sony. It'll only be on ps5 maybe pc
Afce22 But all the previous games will still be on pc and xbox and like I said, they might not make any more metal gear solid games as it mentioned any games they made will be exclusive to ps5, so not only metal gear solid but all their future games aswell
Amazingrose718 So then if that's the case because I agree. What's the point of having an Xbox. When all you need is a pc and PS4/ps5 to play anything you want. Literally almost any game in the world.
Afce22 All you need is a pc, PCs are more powerful than both and either have the games that they both have or probably have better kinds, you don't not need a ps5 just for 5 games
Amazingrose718 Then just get a pc. But that's not what I'm pointing out. I'm saying if you wanna be able to play any game. Because most pc users want to play ps4 exclusives. They never want to play Xbox exclusives because they already can On pc.
Afce22 Firstly, PCs are more expensive and that's why I use a ps4, secondly, nobody would waste their money on a ps4 just to play 2 to 3 games
Amazingrose718 A lot of people would. A lot of my friends who have pc are saved money and are saving money for the PS5 because they want to be able to play any game they want. Even if it's just 5 games. A waste of money would be having a Xbox and pc because they have the exact same games.
Afce22 You have a pc, ps4 or xbox, you pick one as you are wasting money if you buy another, oh and by the way, don't take this the offensive way but why tf would you waste about 200 pounds for 5 games that you still have to pay for?
Amazingrose718 I already answered that twice. But ask a pc user who has both or is saving for ps5. Maybe ps5 will have 10 exclusives who knows. But I already answered you twice on that subject.
Afce22 10 exclusives? 10 fucking exclusives that pc probably has a better version. PCs are better in every way and both ps4 and xbox are weaker compared to it. Why tf would a saine person spend 200 pounds just to then buy 10 games which probably have a better version on PC just to buy those games for about 60 pounds each? That's 800 pounds in total for 10 games that probably have better versions on something you already have and don't need to waste as much money
Amazingrose718 You keep saying better versions and haven't gave me 1 example. Plus most sane people wouldn't spend $60 for every game. I never payed $60 for a game personally in a long time. But yeah I don't understand the whole "better version" you can't play these exclusives on pc. Again bloodborne. What's a better version of that on pc.
Afce22 I gave you metal gear solid and you also gave me one example of a game that doesn't have a better version on pc, this works both ways. And to answer your question about bloodborne, dark souls. So make that 2 now
Amazingrose718 Dark souls is on every console and dark souls isn't "a better version". Bloodborne is on par with dark souls. If you don't think that then you've never beaten or played dark souls or bloodborne.
Afce22 That proves my point actually, if dark souls is on par with blood borne, you should get the same amount of fun, then why do you require both? And I know dark souls is on every console, therefore you do not require a ps4 to play dark souls and just need a pc
Amazingrose718 Did you play and beat bloodeborne and dark souls. Yes or no. Simple question.
Amazingrose718 No it's not because you said dark souls is a "better version of bloodeborne". There's people out there who want challenging games and yet don't have a pc or PS4. So why not get both and able to play every game out there. Which was my first point. I never said if it was a waste of money or any other point you're trying to say. All I said was you're able to play any game with pc and PS4. Unlike Xbox.
Afce22 I preferred dark souls over blood borne but that's your opinion I guess, and also, you are judging people who play on xbox, what happens if they want a game exclusive to only pc and xbox but can't afford a pc, that's where a xbox comes in
Amazingrose718 Again. If you want to play any games you want. All you need is a PS4 and PC. Is that a wrong statement
Afce22 And waste like, 800 pounds on a ps5 and the games you want
Amazingrose718 It's a simple yes or no. You're trying so hard to not agree with me because you want to feel superior. Besides wasting money or "have a better version". To play any game you want in the world all you need is a pc and PlayStation. Yes or no.
Afce22 I'm not saying this to act superior, yes, if you want to play all games possible you would want a ps4 and pc, but it's the cost I'm talking about, over 800 pounds on a ps5 and games that pc probably has a better or on par version of it? And what about game exculsive to the ps3? Yes a ps3 is cheaper but that's still more money
Amazingrose718 That's it. Yes. That's all. Wasn't that hard right? The was my first point from the beginning. Because if you have a Xbox and pc. That's stupid and limiting yourself. You see? Not hard kiddo
Afce22 You said you should get a pc and ps4 but if you own an xbox you are stupid, do you see the problem there? That's one of my points my other point is how much money you waste on a ps5 just to play 10 exculsive games where there are probably better ones on PC, any saine person would think it is not worth it but you aren't a saine person are you? Judging people by their choices. What if some of their friends have an xbox but not a pc or ps4? They have to get an xbox if they want to play with them, ever thought about that?
Amazingrose718 Also I did the math it's less than $400, maybe $450, if a pc user wanted to get a PS4 and all the exclusives so you didn't do your research. Idk how much that'll be in pounds but I don't want to waste my time converting. Yes it's retarded to have a Xbox when you can have "the better version" with pc. If you're gonna waste money on a Xbox. Might as well get a pc.
Afce22 I'm going to ask you this once, where did you do that math?
Amazingrose718 PS4 right now is $275. Most exclusives are maybe $20 or less. But most sane people wouldn't buy all of them at once so maybe 5 games plus a year sub for plus. So maybe 450. Not using a calculator or anything. Just guessing. It wouldn't be $800. Or pounds in your case.
Afce22 We were talking about the ps5 and sometimes mentioned the ps4
Amazingrose718 Oh yeah then your price point makes more sense. Was talking about the present.
You must have been dropped on your head. Sony is gonna put more games on pc
Commander GreyFox Why did you comment twice saying the same thing but the second is more rude. Are you okay? Did you forget you commented already? Or just retarded.
Afce22 I'm just making sure ass hats like you stop shitting on everything and get their facts straight
Commander GreyFox Okay? Well besides you're rudeness if ps5 games will be on pc then yeah consoles will be obsolete. That's cool. Oh and kys kid
Afce22 What ever dip shit, you're telling Me that I'm toxic yet you just had a 50 page conversation with a guy about how the Xbox sucks just so you can prove you're a thoughtless Playstation fan boy who doesn't know shit about the platforms
Commander GreyFox If you actually read it him and I had a good conversation with opposing ideas. It wasn't an argument and I actually thought he has good points. Not everything is an argument. So yes you're toxic.
Afce22 Yeah right, says the dumb ass who reiterated dumb shit all day. Stop being an asshole and get a life
Commander GreyFox Yeah we need to reiterate to understand and toss our ideas at times. That's where your smooth brain can't understand the difference between argument and debate. I don't hate him and I'm sure he doesn't hate me. Just a conversation. You're to toxic to understand. So I'll leave you with this. Take care buddy.
Afce22 Okay pogger, everyone has a smooth brain dumb ass
Vocal Gaming Don't be a dumb ass and put yourself where you don't belong
You don't need a Playstation either, Sony said they want to put their games on pc
Xbox is for real gamers. PS4 players are bad. The controller makes no sense. Oh, and green is a much better colour than blue
What do you guys even have? Some pirate game and halo? Oh wait halo is on pc now. Gears of war? Oooh fun.... talk to me when you get some fun games. The only thing I agree is that green is better than blue. Any color is better than blue
Forza series, horizon and Motorsport. with Forza horizon 3 and 4 being two of the best and most satisfying games I have ever played. With killer graphics and feeling. A banger of a game. Also gears and Titanfall being games that I haven't played but are much appreciated and loved by many people. Also, it's not just about exclusives. People on Xbox may be more toxic but at least there are less completely brain-dead players who are all aim no brain.
So a racing games that not everyone likes, titanfall which PS4 has. And you just reiterated the games I said. That's it?
you said halo and sea of thieves. Bruh. Ooooh, you said gears of war. I was saying that I don't even play it. I'm sorry that people don't have the exact same fucking taste in games than you, but here's the reality...
...
Forza is fun.
Lol.
It is a well made game, it's not a surprise that some people don't enjoy it. I wouldn't enjoy gears, halo, sea of thieves and many other FPS games. Taste in games is important. like bruh. Just because they don't like it doesn't mean it's not a good game. I don't like open world games, doesn't mean Spiderman was a bad game. I've seen the videos, fair enough. But I wouldn't get a playstation to play it, because it is not my kind of game.HAD3S DC I'm not saying anything is better than the other. I'm saying you can play those games on pc which makes Xbox obsolete. Why by a console that is trying to be a pc when you can get a pc and play the same games.
Afce22 Xbox is not trying to be a pc lol. besides. PCs tend to cost more... sooooo. And also some people may not be as able to operate them. Plus I wouldn't let a 10yr old ps or Xbox player start handling a £1.5k pc, which is around the average predisgned and prebuilt pc purchase cost, I'd say by rough estimation.
HAD3S DC So because of money issues you'd by a obsolete console instead of one with more games on it and even your racing games that you like. And just save for a pc. So either you're trying to come up with a random excuse or you're a kid who has their parents buy their console.
Afce22 ... I've had an Xbox for 5 years. My parents gave it to me for Christmas. I'm 16 now. It was smart for them to not buy a pc for me, nor would it have been cost efficient for them to buy a gaming pc for themselves and then let me use it. I'm currently getting a pc anyways so I can use my elgato, and it's not obselete. Besides, it feels much better to have controller in hand, box beside the TV, and TV in front. Having a controller with a pc just doesn't feel right to me... You say pc is superior, yet you have forgotten 1 key thing
https://youtu.be/7Be2erTDwww
hackersHAD3S DC You can also get hackers on ps4 and xbox, yes it requires more effort,but it's still possible
HAD3S DC So you're just biased for Xbox then. Simple as that. And you can use a controller for pc that's just a personal issue you have not liking to use a controller on pc. But you're saving for a pc which just proves my point.
Afce22 Hmm... preference? Like how the kind of game someone enjoys or prefers differs?
And it doesn't prove your point, because I am only getting the pc to use it for recording, as my laptop doesn't have usb 3.0 or higher. IHAD3S DC Oh what a waste sorry to hear. And again if you're based on thinking Xbox is great because it has racing games. Every console has racing game's. They are all the same.
Afce22 ...
that's the kind of thing someone who has no idea about racing games would say. Ahem. Forza horizon and Motorsport are different from each other due to the style of driving. One closed track, the other map based with more open tracks. I'd like to see a hoverboat, jet, squad of dirt bikers, steam train, or halo jet showcase event while karting through bowsers castle. A game in which turning around and drifting just isn't quite the same to Forza. Forza, compare it to GTA races, dirt rally, or need for speed, very different ideas of handling, acceleration, vehicle gravity and whatnot. And graphics. Compare that to an arcade game huh? Oh I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry for my misunderstanding. It seems that they are all exact copies of each other.HAD3S DC Did you really say Ahem? I can't take you seriously after that. Sorry I'm not going to read that paragraph.
Afce22 Uhh, yes I said ahem. It is clearing the throat, a method of announcing they have something that makes sense to say.
HAD3S DC You're clearing your throat to type? You're fucking retarded.
Afce22 I'm the retard? HAHAHAHAHA. my god you make a good laugh. I cannot believe you don't understand that some people try to make what they type or write sound like the spoken word. The retard... says the boy who runs off because the other person seems to actually posses a brain that is capable of using words longer than 7 letters
HAD3S DC So why not type *breathe* between your sentences if you want to sound the same in person. Do you really not see how retarded it is to say that when you're typing? I do understand some people want to do that. But those people are stupid. It doesn't add more to the sentence you are saying.
HAD3S DC That's pretty correct but they usually tend to jip you on parts. It's a shame, I shouldn't be asked to spend 1.5k on a mid power computer
Afce22 There's plenty of reasons to get a Xbox, functionality, how many more third party games come out on it over playstation
HAD3S DC Hackers are the least of a complaint when trying to say pc sucks
Commander GreyFox siege was half ruined by hackers and still is
The controller is way more comfortable, with the xbox controller, one of your thumbs have to stretch out to reach the move button but with a ps4 controller, you don't need to do that
Uhh, you don't have to stretch anything. lol. you have to have some tiny ass hand, trust me, I already have a tiny ass hand and I don't have to stretch anything. When holding a controller, when you move your thumb to a lower section on the controller, it tends to come closer to the controller due to the joints in one's finger, so it only makes sense for the dpad to be under the left toggle. With the PS4 controller you would have to lift your finger off of the dpad and place it onto the toggle due to the height difference which isn't as apparent on the Xbox controller due to the slope of it.
Wtf are you talking about height difference? You are using big words for someone who judges controllers by colour, and also, you don't have to lift your hand of the d pad, I always have my finger on L3 and R3, it's fairly easy to use them but with a xbox controller the L3 and R3 sticks are at different locations and do not match, meaning you have to put one thumb more forward them the other
Uhh, I'm not judging the controllers by colour idiot. One has to be more forward than the other and?
"you didn't finish your sentence"
-Captain America
In fact. The human brain finds it easier to do the same thing with 2 mirroring hands than do two different things with 2 mirroring hands at the same time. So having unmirrored hands may help. Also. After playing 50% rocket League, 40% r6, and 10% else. I have been accused of m&k on r6 many times in mid silver to mid gold due to my effortless recoil control and initial aim due to the Xbox becoming one with my hand. Xbox controller? Yin and Yang bro, Yin and Yang.HAD3S DC That m and k thing, you are aware r6 isnt cross platform, so the people who call you out for it are also xbox players, secondly I did finish my sentence and lastly wtf do you mean mirrors hands doing the same thing? Your two hands aren't doing the same thing ones looking around while the other is moving, they aren't going in the same direction at all so they are not doing the same thing not matter what console you play on
And one last thing, you did judge the ps4 to an xbox by the colour, at the start of this entire thing you said that green was colour than blueAmazingrose718 ... smol brain man, smol brain. Uhh, read what you said btw "someone who judges CONTROLLERS by colour" and I just added that for witty finish you brain trapped fool. AND PEOPLE USE M&K ADAPTORS TO PLAY M&K YOU IDIOT. being accused of m&k is a thing because there are a lot of people who use m&k on xbox lol. My oh my. Being on Xbox doesn't mean you are trapped with a controller, similar to how you can use a controller on pc.
HAD3S DC Let's go back to that m and k thing, how does that prove your point at all? You are playing with tons of people with the same controller as you, but you can just use it better, and another thing, that colour thing was a point against ps4 players, by saying their console looked cooler
Amazingrose718 Bro, did you even read the bit where I was saying that I only added the colour remark for witty finish?
HAD3S DC So, you purposely added that to make more people angry mabye? Mabye because you are a dick head and call all people who play ps4 stupid?
Amazingrose718 Not really no. I made it because having 3 points to a sentence is more effective than 2, even if the 3rd point is redundant and irrelevant. It still adds a bit of oomph to your point. Also, I have never said that all PS4 players are stupid, just a higher number of the players are stupid compared to the Xbox players. There is of course a similarly high rate of retardation on xbox but nonetheless higher on PS4. my oh my. your brain really cannot handle this can it? You just don't understand... tut tut. you can't see the bigger picture because your vision is all tunneled in. I honestly can't make out of you are stuck inside your own head, or if you you head is stuck up your ass.
Or both. Gamesense and brain capacity and capability during conversation are different things. You may not be stupid in games. But you sure do squeal like a right squeaker when defending your beloved queen playstation.HAD3S DC Firstly, my brain can handle it, secondly if ps4 players are more stupid, then how are we more kind overall? You see tons of xbox people swearing like there is no end but ps4 players rarely experience that. Mabye because we are more forgiving? And thoughtful? Your third point proves this theory as it makes nothing but more people mad at you and then you get mad when they get mad making it prove that you are more retarded then you think but you don't think about your retard level do you? You think of others all though yours is all the way up there while you just laugh at slightly retarded people, mabye you laugh at them because they aren't as retarded as you? We shall never know though
Amazingrose718 uhh... "kind" "forgiving". I am the most forgiving person you will ever know. I am the kindest and most generous person you will ever know. And PS4 players have a tendency to tell their mum to fuck off because they are mid game. Also. retarded and stupid are two different things. So please. Without looking up the definition, define retard by your own understanding
HAD3S DC Ah yes, you are most definitely kind, it's not like you have thrown the most insults in this argument, and you say ps4 players tell their mum to fuck off? Just go to a Call of duty game session on xbox with some kids in there and just wait, just wait, and I'll do the same if you wish
Amazingrose718 I don't play cod lol. cod sucks ass. But at least my insults dont misuse the word retard nor do they use retard at all. And I will say this again. Define retard
HAD3S DC Referring to someone doing something stupid or foolish, what is your definition
Amazingrose718 My definition is the actual definition. Retard is a slowed process, mentally retarded is processing information slowly. Miscalculation and mistakes aren't part of retardation. Being retarded is just delaying the release of the outcome, response or solution.
HAD3S DC You are aware a word can have more then one definition such as saw, and I know you search the internet for that, when I was waiting for you to answer I searched up definitions for retarded so I knew if you were cheating, which you were. And if that's all, goodnight
Amazingrose718 uhm
I've known it for years. Why do you think I would ask? Just because I know the correct definition of something doesn't mean I just searched it up. Fine, I admit it, I searched it up.
LIKE 2 YEARS AGO. Bro I just know the definition. I'm sorry when I define it do I have to be wrong for it to be that I didn't search it up? You're not making any sense. Lol. and wait a second, you cheated? Funny. You cheated and I didn't. My oh my that is pathetic. You have no evidence I cheated as well. And no. You were wrong. Because I asked for the definition of retard not retarded.Amazingrose718 I just watched your ass get trapped in a corner and you wrote purposely instead of supposedly. You should have stopped while you're ahead
says a guy who's probably the xbox player here lol lmao
If ps3,2 and 1 games worked with the ps5, then they would also work with he ps4. This is because ps5 and ps4 have been structured in similar ways allowing ps4 games to be on ps5. Think of it as skylanders. the characters from the first game can be used on the second, but the characters from the second game can't be used on the first game
they said it at that tech demo thing where they were touting their ssd speed
This is kinda old news it was like that for the ps4
