Larian has delayed the release of Baldur’s Gate 3, currently on pace to possibly be 2023’s Game of the Year, until they can figure out how to make split-screen work on Series S.

    It played the same games(although not the same. Looks for reviews of Cyberpunk on the Series X compared to the series S) but it’s becoming harder and harder to do, as per the article. Sure it sold them a lot of units when it came out, but if people can’t play the games they want on an Xbox because it’s going to release 6 months later than PlayStation, how long will those sales hold up?

      As long as the PS5 is twice as expensive, I’d imagine they don’t change a whole lot, but also, both of those companies are looking at replacing the hardware they’ve got at whatever that appropriate time might be, as we both expected logically and found out from court documents. The ordinary trajectory of parts getting cheaper over time didn’t necessarily happen, and Sony at least is looking at doing a “Pro”-esque version of their console, which means we’re either getting a new set of half-step consoles or Microsoft will finally do their beyond generations shenanigans, whatever they are. At the end of the day, Microsoft basically only cares about Game Pass, and articles like this one just want to stoke console war nonsense.
