"This is fully sourced. Nobody at Microsoft/subsidiaries is working on Starfield for PS5 today."

That's rather specific. Sounds like a third party port house is doing the work.

Agreed.

I wouldn't actually expect the team to directly make the port, most don't. That is generally an outsourced thing.

There was a rumour that game announcements were being held back so they could be shown off on the PS5 Pro. PS5 Pro is supposedly launching this year, so if true they should have a lot more to show.

Could be, they might want a few titles to show off Pro's power.

 

[VinnyMac]

Give me gears please

 

[Mobilemofo]

I'd take gears. Other than that, I'm good.

 

[Chuck Berry]

Fuck Gears gimme Quantum Break

Or... they already ported it and its on the shelf

Or...Toys for Bob are working on it.

 

[Topher]

Dude.....you could have bought that game for a buck fifty years ago.

 

[Raonak]

It's gonna obviously happen.

If they're really going to do this they ought to put Halo Infinite on PS, they'll make some caysh monies by doing so.

 

[James Sawyer Ford]

A student fresh out of the Phil Spencer school of communication...

"Right now" is the new "today"

“Our intent is to not announce Starfield on PS5 today”

- Phil Spencer

 

[Dick Jones]

If they're really going to do this they ought to put Halo Infinite on PS, they'll make some caysh monies by doing so.

If Halo Infinite wins another GAF Game of the Year then I think the vote should be taken off people.

 

[reinking]

Starfield special edition Pro incoming?

I would love a dual sense starfield controller. I love the Xbox version.

Halo multiplayer should 100% be on PlayStation

 

[Topher]

I want Starfield themed PS5 plates.

Oh man.......I can see Ass of Can Whooping 's eyes twitching right now

 

[Kokoloko85]

Short term profits over long-term health of Xbox by providing it exclusives?

They gave that up when they went day 1 releases on PC tbh. Gamepass was the opposite but retarded, it just killed sales

 

[Lunarorbit]

This won't don't well on Playstation

 

[James Sawyer Ford]

This won't don't well on Playstation

The PS5 version will outsell how much the game sold on Xbox…

 

[Lunarorbit]

The PS5 version will outsell how much the game sold on Xbox…

Thinking 100,000?

 

[Varteras]

I was liking Starfield before liking Starfield was cool*.

*Pending liking Starfield being cool

 

[mckmas8808]

Big if true. Despite the podcast Phil was on the other week, this would indicate that Xbox are throwing in the towel when it comes to Xbox platform (including windows pc) exclusives.

Xbox will turn itself into a huge publishing outlet though. Weird news for sure if true.

Couldn't agree with you more.

 

[mckmas8808]

The PS5 version will outsell how much the game sold on Xbox…

Easily. I still can't believe it only sold 150k in the UK last year on both the Xbox and PC combined.

 

[Omnipunctual Godot]

At this rate, the only thing I'd want from Microsoft is TES VI, and now I really can't underestimate Bethesda's ability to fuck that up, too.

 

[Three]

I suppose that's a way to get the Meta critic higher.

Xbox rebate

 

[Macattk15]

So Microsoft has thrown in the towel huh?

Nice. Sony/Nintendo/MS should all just combine to make one damn console to compete with PC.

 

[Hayabusabruh]

'Sony is dominating us. What do we do?'

Let's give em all we got

Yeah that's the spirit!

No for reals. Let's give em all we got. '

 

[HeWhoWalks]

So Microsoft has thrown in the towel huh?

Nice. Sony/Nintendo/MS should all just combine to make one damn console to compete with PC.

All of Microsoft's games are already on PC, among other things. All they'd have to do is drop hardware.

Considering that they have a next gen Xbox planned, that idea won't come to pass anytime soon.

[NahaNago]

Cool, but no thanks to starfield. I'm waiting on the forza, gears, and halo.

 

[VolticArchangel]

Lmao. Was that guy banned here?

 

[Raven117]

Ah, then PlayStation owners can see first hand what such a wet fat Starfield is

 

[Quezacolt]

MS, you can keep Starfield for yourself. I'd rather have a remastered trilogy of gears of war.
Starfield loses its magic after a few hours. Then it becomes a slog.

 

[IFireflyl]

Lmao. Was that guy banned here?

Yes. And with Tweets like his, you don't even have to ponder why. He's like Phil Spencer's chode come to life, and walking around all on his own. With equal intelligence.

 

[Mr Moose]

Lmao. Was that guy banned here?

Yeah then cried about it on Twitter.

 

[VolticArchangel]

PSGAF, you don't want this garbage lol.

Take it from someone who invested more than 120+ hours (I know it's low, especially for a Bethesda game, but it's fucking insufferable, especially the writing) on the PC version of this trash, your money is better spent on everything else. Don't make the mistake I did and spend $70 on this POS, it will for sure come to PS5.

Boot up Skyrim, FO4 or even FO76 to get your Bethesda craving.

 

[nick776]

If anyone out there does not think all MSFT games are ultimatelygoing to PS5, etc. they are delusional. It's not a question of "if," but rather one of "when." Ole Phil's words were very carefully chosen, as were the post-podcast statements. I do not think we would have even gotten the podcast we got had there not been so much backlash. Just imagine Forza Horizon 5 and Gears 5 on PS5 Pro though. . .would WOULDN'T want that?

 

[VeganElduderino]

if that signs to come about multiplatform there's just no reasons to choose one console over the other in the next generation of consoles, PC will be the way to go , everything ends up on PC anyways.

Starfield PS5 Pro limited edition

 

[VolticArchangel]

Yeah then cried about it on Twitter.

What allegiances to plastic boxes does to people.

 

[skit_data]

-Rumors of Xbox games coming to other consoles
Response from Xbox and associated press on the matter:

Edit: Found this one pretty fucking funny:


At times Hard Drives satire is up there with The Onions

Edit2: Ok, I misread it, I thought it was "across multiple console platforms". That'd be way funnier. No The Onion after all then.

 

[PleazureDome]

Starfield PS5 Pro limited edition

I can't wait to explore all these handcrafted planets and have sex with all kinds of alien species. Suck it Mass Effect!

PS5 Pro here I come.

 

[Atrus]

Starfield performed poorly as an investment and is probably a big contributor to multiplatforming.

Imagine telling your boss that just spent 8 billion dollars to purchase a company for your division that their major new IP expected to run for years and take in up to a billion in revenue just flopped.

At some point Phil’s leash gets pulled.

 

[Cyber_hunter026]

 

[BloodborneHat3r]

You can get Fallout 76 for "free" that these days has a better experience than Starfiled.

Fallout 76 is good now, highly recommended over Goyfield.

 

[StereoVsn]

"It's just four games, nothing to see here."

Yep. I saw early gameplay videos and removed the game from my wishlist. I'm not spending time playing that turd when there are so many awesome games to play lol.

 

[GigaBowser]

dont even want this crud unless they let you fly porporly and get rid of loading screens

 

[THE DUCK]

Hmmm, just a month ago it was confirmed xbox was full third party and hardware dropped, and we all see how that turned out.
Some ports of some older lesser known games and confirmation of new hardware on the way.
Don't count your chickens.

 

[adamsapple]

"This is fully sourced. Nobody at Microsoft/subsidiaries is working on Starfield for PS5 today."

That's rather specific. Sounds like a third party port house is doing the work.

 

[Alan Wake]

I fully expect it to happen, just thought they would want to put a few more months between the announcement and Spencer's denial.
