I hope your wrong about the no disc thing JD but it wouldn't surprise me it seems that is the way of the future. I am not a PS fan boy or anything, the only reason I stick with PS is the controller. I have always played on PS right from the PS1. I did consider switching but I just can't get the feel of the Xbox controller. It's not such a big deal on FS but games where you use both sticks at the same time a lot like EA hockey, having them offset like that just kills the whole experience for me. It's hard for this old dog to learn new tricks lol.

I totally agree, I much prefer the PS controller over the Xbox any day.
I did look up PS5 images and I don't see a disc slot, so it might be true. If it is, Sony ain't getting my money.

I have been gaming a very long time...starting with the Atari 2600... I have had the original PS1, PS2, PS3 and now the PS4.. I had the original Xbox and the Xbox360... to be honest I like both platforms... but I do prefer the PS controllers as well. My only dislike is the inability to change my gamer tag... even if they only allowed you to do it once...that would be better than nothing... its so medieval.
As for discs... I am an instant gratification person... I can't remember the last time I bought a game on disc.. I get my content online.. and downloads are very fast for me.

Sorry for the off topic, but cr41g, speaking of Atari, our controllers have really come a long way!!

I was wondering with both pc running windows 10 and the new update for xbox one using a version of windows 10...abet scaled down...it's making it easier for cross play between them to start off with as you've only need to have one purchase to be able to play/use on both as with the new halo wars 2 game. Might be something that could happen at sometime further down the line. There's only slight differences between the different controller's....there's buttons and sticks in very similar places and they all vibrate...as do other things....but the old xbox controllers were rather bulky my hands used to ache holding on to them but kept going back for more.

I agree with taff, it could be likely C&C maybe cross-platform, especially for Windows 10 PC's and Xbox One's. If they do, that should make lots of fans very, very happy. GIANTS may lose lots of sales if C&C does this cross-platform thing and if their gameplay is better. I wouldn't be surprised if that happened.

Even without the cross play option I can see C&C being more popular. Completely different game engine, makes it crisper and the terrain is actually respondant to weather and use. Giants implemented crop destruction mods but they dont leave constant damage. If I drove a tractor down a dirt path it would constantly be ruined, not magically fresh looking again 20 minutes later. They have even allowed talk of C&C now on their forum I see so im thinking they have realised they actually have competition now which in the long run I can only see as being a good thing

I yeah, I remember that post. Hmm, I think GIANTS is getting better since Lisertan has arrived. It will be good being able for people to talk about C&C now over there.

Yeah, when I was pretty new on those forums, I posted in the Off Topic section a link to one of the C&C YouTube videos... My post was almost immediately deleted!
A little scared of the competition, eh?

A little scared of the competition, eh? They seemed to be but now are more relaxed with it it would seem.I remember their filters changed it to command and conquer. With people saying stuff like if itnwas your business community would toublike competition being spoken about etc. Bit of competition is healthy in business . makes each one improve

Couldn't agree more with competition, you need competition to do more and get better. If there was no competition, nothing would change much.

True, I guess that's why Farming Simulator hasn't changed a whole lot in its almost 10 Years. I mean sure, graphics have gotten better, they've added more equipment, console and mod support... But any major game-changing additions??? I don't think so. I could be wrong though, as I haven played any previous versions, just seen some earlier YouTube videos...
But now that there's major competition, maybe they'll step up their game!!
