Re: After Sony's Crossplay Kerfuffle, Call of Duty Fans Are Turning the Feature Off

Because PC elitists became a parody of themselves as soon as someone uttered "PC master race" unironically. I can't even think of that sentence being said without the slightest trace of irony due to the obvious drawbacks there are to PC gaming.
(Preemptive edit: In case anyone calls me out on not elaborating the drawbacks, here goes. A gaming PC can be more powerful than any console, provided its user keeps investing in upgrades. Meanwhile, consoles set a cap for what they can and can't do, meaning all software houses have to adhere to each standard, making console gaming insanely cheaper than any PC.)

Re: Feature: The Evolution of the PlayStation Controller

Said it before, will say again - I can't stress enough how much I love the DualSense's design. I'm not ruling out PS5 as a companion piece to my Switch, given how Xbox 360 and Xbox One have filled that third-party purpose instead of, say, PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4.

Re: PS5 Is the Better Next-Gen Console, According to Crytek Developer

Bold indeed. Once graphics can simulate reality to a tee, the constant cold war between consoles just has to move somewhere else - games' size, length, shading, load times, you name it. But graphics? Ho ho ho, no sir. Games' fun factor is going to take the spotlight once again.
I think whichever console has always been a runner-up in terms of raw power is going to be on equal grounds with the buff boys in a few years. Once that happens, well...

Re: Wii U Exclusive The Wonderful 101 Will Come to PS4

As a Nintendo fan (who got his gaming start on PS1, mind you), I'm always quick to defend the Wii U (despite Nintendo themselves having had its failure coming).
Being backside-hurt over exclusives (or, worse yet, coming-to-every-console-except-yours kind of exclusives) is all fine and dandy, but I've never said that - in a reverse example - "I'm sick of seeing games only coming to PS4 because of a few teraflops more, they should come to Nintendo Switch because it can be taken on the go".
Of course, being a Nintendo fan already and also being a portable kind of guy made my love for Switch an obligatory choice, but I'm not going to say PS4 is a bad console or anything like that.

You're right, taking games away from such a purgatory was enough of a priority that the PlayStation 4 port was the last one to be unlocked, at five times the Switch version's price. Crazy, right?
PlatinumGames went on to explain that the first Wonderful 101 was produced by Nintendo, which means all other versions have been funded with Nintendo's explicit consent. What even were the odds?

Re: PlayStation and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Will Cross Paths in Upcoming Tournament

Of course this may come across as pure blasphemy to all the PlayStation-only purists around here, but any Sony property would be treated with nothing short of complete respect in Masahiro Sakurai's hands. We're talking about the same game director who completed Persona 5 before putting Joker in Smash.

I mean, the dude owns at the very least one PlayStation 4. The same whole respect ordeal happened with Cloud in Super Smash Bros. 4, which still were the Sony-only FF7 days. He could say "to see more Kratos, please play his games on PS4" in the middle of a Nintendo Direct - it happened with Banjo-Kazooie, after all.
I leave y'all with the 2013 April Fools' Day strip of Brawl In The Family, which will be embedded correctly as soon as the site is back up.
