So Metro jumped the gun huh. Oops!
I saw the reviews for Astro and Miles, 7 and 8 out of 10 respectively. It's probably worth mentioning that Metro almost always score Sony games below the average, so I expect both games to fare better as a whole once all the other publications post their reviews.

Isn't basically every game auto-saving every few minutes? Can't see how it's any different. Actually, Quick Resume takes away Space.
What is the purpose of a review if they have been only able to play 2 games and they didn't even try backwards compatibility?
I'm probably less bothered about it effectively saving the memory state when shutting down and allowing you to restart as thats how I've worked with my PS4 Pro and its been great for me. It's very rare i'm playing multiple Single Player games at the same time so having the ability to jump between them instantly doesn't matter as much.
I think Activities are going to work absolutely fine for me. Given I can also move to multiplayer modes directly from the UI is more than enough and if I can jump to specific saves or levels for single player games, I find that appealing too.
I think both the Xbox and PS5 implementations achieve similar results using different approaches. Great for anyone regardless of their console choice.

Yes and think coverage for current gen versions of certain games is happening today as well as Giant Bomb "hinted" (they basically outright said) that they'll be doing an AC stream today.
I used the single game suspend for the entirety of the generation at all times.
I also only enjoy 1 game at a time, especially since PS5 is just an exclusives machine for me.
So far I'm winning because all I care about is quiet fans and fast load times and looks like we got both.

Not this again. Quick Resume offers several advantages that a fast SSD alone can't solve. You can skip all splash screens for example, which aren't even loading and Quick Resume isn't reliant on developers coding for it. Thus it also works on BC titles and makes loading them much faster.
It's not the end of the world, PS doesn't have this. But it would've been cool.
They finally did it!!! Amazing news.
Exactly, why can't everyone be happy lol
As far as we know*, they're two different features, doing slightly different things with pros and cons like you said. And yeah, eventually one platform holder will copy the other and vice versa, and that's basically the best thing that can happen.
*it seems to me we just don't know exactly what are the extents and limitations of both features yet. But I guess we'll know soon enough.
Because the review isn't about the games being playable (there are seperate game reviews for that) but more about the system, the architecture, the OS, the cooling and controller.
Lol it's crazy that people still don't understand what Quick Resume is...
Embargo for BC lifts today too I think.
Maybe Claydol can provide info about that (sorry about the tag)
People assume its just a marketing term, basically exactly how Smart Delivery is viewed.
PS has "Activities" that also let you skip splash screens. We don't know if we can jump to saves though.
So the 7am ET from yesterday is wrong? Which is 5 minutes from now
Or, say in Destiny, straight to a destination. Would it work that way?
That's one of the sticking points for me with Quick Resume. It's great for single player games but how will it work for Destiny, for example? I doubt it'll start you exactly where you were on a planet or in the tower, etc., due to the online nature of the game. Activities seems to be more capable of doing that.
The activities feature should pretty much custom load, no?
Maybe read the thread before trying to pile on?
I didn't know quick resume could be used essentially like a save state and have responded to someone else who mentioned this.
It's a pretty neat feature that will likely be in or patched into activities in a similar way to how Fortnite is using them.
No, Idk about BC. If Everyeye tells something I will report here.
The embargo for the reviews postponed. 1 hour left.
The person that told when the reviews are coming up says 14:00 in Netherlands (so another hour)
OP
OP
I don't know what to think anymore. That Italian video said 1PM CET and that's now but it's on an hour from now?
