Xbox Performance on PS Points to More Games Crossing, & "False Advertisement" | Triangle Squared Ep....

This week sees updates from Microsoft on how well their games have been performing on PlayStation, and points to a readiness from Microsoft to “meet players where they are”, Kingdom Hearts 4 is rumored to be Square Enix's big 2025 release in a time where their slate seems otherwise dry from a AAA standpoint, and Bloober Team says Silent Hill 2 is an important game to prove them as a studio. We share our thoughts on all this, as well as look at the Community's thoughts on what constitutes “False Advertisement” to them, and explore whether Sony dismissing Days Gone is nearing their lack of confidence in Demon's Souls that came back to haunt them!

We talk about all these, look into what we've been playing as always, check in on Phil Spencer's insights about how the new generations of gamers are changing the industry as he makes an argument that exclusivity will seemingly die out, and get asked if we'd use a time machine amidst a potential WW3?

EA Pushing for Blockbuster Storytelling, PS5 Pro Specs & more! | Triangle Squared Ep. 345

This week saw specs for the ever rumored PS5 Pro leak, letting us have a look at what to expect from the mid-gen refresh, and how it may, or may not, help reach that evergreen goal of 4K/60fps in modern games. With that we have a talk around how much power matters and if it should, look at the PS+ Extra/Premium games coming to PS5 for subscribers this month, discuss EA hiring ex-PlayStation executive who oversaw their first party strategy for decades in an effort to help usher in their planned change toward great single player games with "Blockbuster storytelling", which stands in contrast to what many publishers have been announcing as Live-Service becomes ever more pervasive, and have a chat about what PlayStation's future could look like in the next decade or so within the context of the industry's recent shifts!
