Current Events > What PS5/Series X game has made you say "Wow, this is next-gen"?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Which game if so?

Or has it not happened yet? What game do you think you'll say it for?

Is Diablo Immortal on those consoles?
If it is, that.

None so far.

Honestly I didn't feel that step up from the ps3 to ps4 generation at a single game. It wasn't a sudden "wow there's no way this could have been done in the past". It was more a gradual things look better. Like I look at God of War and ghost of Tsushima and think there's no way these graphics could have happened before.

The only thing I feel would be a truly next gen experience would be PSVR2 but I've been playing that type of stuff a while on PC.

Ratchet and Clank Rifts Apart

There are some moments in that game that are just overwhelming and could never have been done on a ps4.

Denon's Souls Remake also looks really good.

Nothing. I've played Forza Horizon 4 and 5, Flight Simulator 2020, GTA San Andreas "Definitive Edition", Astro's Playroom, Demon's Souls, Dirt 5, Gran Turismo 7, and Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart and they all didn't seem much better than a PS4 game running in 4K.

This is why I haven't bothered with the new generation of consoles yet.

Warframe
It used to be like 2 minutes of loading to start the game. Now it's like 5 seconds. Next gen has saved me from hours of sitting in a loading screen

Assassin's Creed Origins on Series' X made me go...oh wow. They did a fine job.

Forza Horizon 5 in certain parts.

Rift Apart should get a lot of praise, given its effectively a tech-demo for what the PS5 could do.

Rift Apart literally couldn't be done on the PS4. I'm not just talking graphics. I'm talking those load screens between different worlds. You pass through multiple levels in a matter of seconds, that's just impossible on last gen hardware.
