Re: Amazon acquiring EA

I had heard rumors for the last 5-8 yrs about Amazon getting into the gaming industry. It would be perfect for them. Think if they made their own console to compete vs Sony and MS. And if they gave that console out for 'free' if you had an Amazon Prime membership. If there's one company that can af...

Re: Racing Season 2022 (Spoiler Alert)

I just have to comment on the F1 paddock's opposition to Andretti Global wanting to join the Formula 1 circus, either buying out a team or starting their own from scratch. Supposedly the head honcho in the opposition group is Toto Wolff who vehemently opposes the Andretti entry with Mario Andretti c...

Re: F1 22

I rarely buy games at launch especially since I have GPU but the Dualsense controller for the PS5 intrigued me so I purchased the Champions Edition today knowing that i'll be seeing F1 22 again next year on my Series X. Overall it's much of the same as last year. The intrigue of the new cars was ano...

Re: EA Looking To Sell Or Merge

That would be a great fit for Microsoft but now they can't with the Activision buyout unless they want the government breathing down their backs with anti-trust claims.

I'm definitely not a fan of the Miami layout. It looks like a track that won't produce a whole lot of passing. It kinda reminds me of Sochi.

Re: Racing Sim Thread, Part II

I don't think Terry has either a PS5 or GT7 because I would love to get his opinion. I've been playing GT7 since launch and I have got to say it is by far the BEST racing AI I have seen in any racing game, console or PC. I know I might get some blowback but Forza's Drivatar isn't even this good. Whe...

Re: Racing Season 2022 (Spoiler Alert)

For all the naysayers, none here on DSP, that the new cars would produce the same results as in the past may have to wait. The Bahrain GP showed that these new cars can allow for closer racing and more passing as evidence by the Leclerc vs Verstappen exchanges. That was nice to see as both cars kept...

Re: Elden Ring

I bought the game for the Series X. The graphics are not mind blowing neither is it on the PC. I'm lost, where the heck am I supposed to go? I'm at the beginning of the game. I went to the entrance of the Storm Gate castle, if that's where I was supposed to go? My sorcerer character is a level 6 and...

This game should've been called Death of the Wild, it's a Zelda/Souls game. One character that makes things easier is the Sorcerer. You get ranged attacks or you can get up close with a sword. It is tough, i'm just messing around in the beginning trying to beat the Tree Sentinel. I've loss every tim...

Re: NFL Season 2021-22

I remember back in the early 70’s when my interest in the NFL leapfrogged baseball. Now my interest in the NBA is far greater than the NFL. Adam Silver even said he wants Basketball to be the #1 sport in the world. He may get his wish in a couple of decades because in the 16-25 yr old bracket, they ...

Crazy trade. Would you give Harden $233 million extension? He'd be making over $60 million at age 38. He' not been good this year, nowhere near an MVP. Is he going to play better now that he would presumably be motivated? Or is he out of shape, maybe don't have the same first step or finishing abil...

I think Ben Simmons is going to regret getting shipped to Brooklyn. If he thinks Philly fans are vocal he better get ready to deal with major backlash when things don't go his way. NY fans can downright get hostile. They will turn on any of their own if they think you aren't playing up to your stand...

Re: Nintendo Switch

Yesterday, Nintendo showed off some stuff that looks interesting. Wii Sports is coming to the Nintendo Switch. There are plans to add Golf as a free update later this year. Mario Strikers is also getting released. It looks fun as usual, nothing like a footie version of Mario Kart. :)

Re: Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5

It does sound interesting but i'm not getting my hopes up that it will make the racing portion of the game any better. It certainly can't hurt seeing the Gran Turismo series has always had a non existent racing AI.

Sony's version of "Drivatars". It does sound promising but I will have to see it in action.

Re: Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5

Sony is teasing a Big AI event for Gran Turismo 7. Will it be different this time? Who knows because they’ve made similar remarks in the past and the racing was just borderline OK at best.

Re: Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5

Gran Turismo has always been trash when it comes to a racing product. I think that's why Gran Turismo Sport went the online route and tried to copy the iRacing formula of clean/ranked racing. The series has always had Ridge Racer type AI and that's being disrespectful to Ridge Racer. I hope GT7 come...

Re: NFL Season 2021-22

The other problem Brian Flores will have in proving his racism case is, his own hiring of assistants as he believes in hiring the best most qualified. Supposedly, he hired a total of 20, fifteen were white and 5 were black.

Re: NFL Season 2021-22

Flores best outcome if he wants to throw his boss under the bus is by proving the “pay to lose” claim. Racism I thought was sour grapes because like I said, the Dolphins had the only black front office in the league which was (Chris Grier, Brian Flores), Nat Moore, Reggie McKenzie (advisor) and Jaso...

The Dolphins are a giant clusterf789. If the pay to lose is proven (there appears to be a smoking gun) then the NFL should force Stephan Ross to sell the team. Though, I disagree with Brian Flores on the racism part. He can’t prove racism when the Dolphins have Chris Grier, Brian Flores, Reggie McKe...
