Remember back when we brought up the question of whether or not we should be concerned about Cyberpunk 2077 on last gen consoles? Well, the unfortunate truth is that we apparently had every reason to be concerned.

Even a huge triple-A studio like CD Projekt Red had some major issues with launching their game that was in development for over 5 years on last gen consoles. That's not to say they won’t make good on the promise of making the game better and fixing it up - I’m sure they will - but the launch ended up being a disaster by any reasonable measure for base PS4 and Xbox One owners.

Sony and Microsoft were flooded with return requests and even the PC port even had more than its fair share of issues despite that version easily being the best one in terms of performance.

Well, here we are again. Again we see a triple-A studio with a long-anticipated game that has an unrealistic amount of hype attached to it and again we see them trying to launch it on multiple platforms - including last generation consoles. Obviously Capcom and CD Projekt Red are very different studios and Cyberpunk 2077 is a very different type of game than Resident Evil 8. But it’s hard not to compare the two situations in a general sense given the outcome of recent events.
