Guerilla Games takes the cake for the best looking PS4 game, the Decima Engine really is a beast.

Sony putting on a masterclass graphically. Not only does the world look sensational, but their is a ton of activity as well which makes it even more demanding. Decima engine is a beast.

I will add my down vote, I can easily explain, the leak is already proven to be at least fake in part, ghost of tsushima didn't come to PC on the 8th February. So the rest of those games might or might not come, and could be 2022 or it could be 2025. So you could be waiting 3 years to play the game, or maybe you wont play at all if you want the PC version.

Might come in 2024, I'll just get the ps5 version, along with adaptive triggers, Ill still wait for a price drop in a couple months, no game is worth 95 dollars. Maybe just skyrim and breath of the wild. Even GT7 Ill just wait a bit because its only 75 dollars on ps4 but 95 dollars on ps5. If it was 75 dollars I'd buy it now, I actually had it on preorder and cancel it when I saw the ps4 version was 20 dollars cheaper for the exact same game.

UK prices, I converted to dollars. I assumed most people here are in the states maybe.
Its funny that GT7 is actually slightly cheaper in my home country, Portugal than UK.
Yeah if they could justify these games with content, then yeah I might bite, but when the ps4 versions are cheaper then its not about the content.

Likely to drop during 2023 I'd imagine, knowing Sony improving upon the release strat, it'd make more sense than to increase the delay by more years.
