Hahahaha devs having a hard time again with Xbox hardware and this isn't the first time,
Just let the s go it's pulling the current gen
I could bet money GTA VI is taking longer to make due to Series S RAM issues as well
I am also genuinely concerned that Rockstar is having to butcher GTA6 so that it can run on the Series S and work within the extreme RAM limitations of the console
Yeah... same... it could really limit the scope of the game, and we are also waiting longer than we would otherwise. Why couldn't it just be XSX and PS5 that came out in 2020...
Even though i know it has been officially announced for the Xbox S/X there might still be a small chance that it's not coming to the Series S. That rockstar saw the specs and knew it wasn't worth compromising their game for and they are just waiting to announce it at the last minute so it doesn't hurt MS hardware sales. Rockstar know that they don't need Xbox. Their games have done just fine on PS and PC
Starts eating popcorn,
But RAM is indeed rather limited and thats having an effect on game development. Although plenty will say that the devs are just lazy. Even though they do not develop AAA games themselves.
please explain how that is funny
Free PS5/PC timed exclusive XD
Cool. I'll wait for the Game Pass release.
They should release gta 6 streaming only for the s so it don’t fuck up the others
As a PC gamer i love looking at console gamers debating about console specs as if they know what they are talking about, when how they are talking clearly shows they dont....
