After causing a stir on social networks and videogame forums for his words on PS5 ‘spanked’ by Xbox Series X., David Jaffe goes back to the topic and explains why, from his point of view, the Microsoft platform represents the best solution for those who want to buy a next gen console.
The God of War dad e Twisted Metal starts from the observation that the average gamer, while wishing to own both PS5 and Xbox Series X, in this launch phase can only turn to the purchase of a single new generation console.
Jaffe himself also points out how PlayStation 5 be “an exceptional console”, with a robust launch lineup and the ability to backwardly access a catalog of exclusives that the former Sony Santa Monica describes as “second to none in terms of production, a bit like Nintendo has been able to do with its exclusives in terms of pure gameplay”.
Despite praise for the strengths of Sony’s nextgen console and its stock portfolio, the game director del primo God of War specifies that “I’ve had Xbox Series X for about a week and a half, and my PS5 has been gathering dust ever since.”. To illustrate the reasons for his preference for the flagship console of the Redmond house, Jaffe dedicates a large part of his speech on YouTube to a demonstration in which the histrionic American developer quickly switches from one game to another using the Quick Resume di Xbox Series X.
For the director of the original God of War, the ability to take advantage of this system built into the Velocity Architecture di Xbox Series X/S to access your playroom almost instantly “it’s really revolutionary” and represents a “point of no return”. Jaffe also recalls how, being suffering from ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder), the use of the Quick Resume exercises in him atoo strong attraction which does not allow him to come back (referring to systems that, like PS5, do not have similar functionality). For the American developer, too Xbox Game Pass is a point in favor of Microsoft’s strategy to attract new users to the Xbox ecosystem.
