This is what Sony should have done instead of having their first party make live service game they should have partnered with second/third parties. Still can't believe blue point was making a live service god of war, horrible management.
Maybe move out of the most expensive place to make games in. Move to Ohio or somewhere would reduce costs. I don't want to hear, but all the talent is there, people move for work all the time. If you want to lower costs develop where the cost of living is cheaper.
@SMJ yeah but what I'm saying is that they sold better than their consoles did. Not saying Sony will outsell Nintendo but that a handheld will sale a lot more than their console is.
@SMJ well yeah, but still sold better than PlayStation consoles did. Psp was selling great in Japan it's handheld focus so a handheld will sale better than a console so...
@MamaSymphonia yeah I think it will give Nintendo actual competition should be interesting. It Sony had the handheld out when a monster hunter game came out probably would have been huge
I'm hoping for the rumored god of War 2d game or Cory balrog new game. Also would be awesome to see a new burnout game or even remaster 3/revenge. Stellar entertainment had been working on something.
System is great, really don't think we need PS6 for a while. The ssd and controller were highlights. PlayStation first party output could have been a lot better but we had horrible people in charge.
@TrollOfWar I have a 13 year old daughter who has no interest in PC gaming, she is fine with her switch doesn't even want a switch 2. Why would a parent pay 800 dollars on a gaming PC if the argument is that they could use it for things other than gaming when the parent can buy a 500 dollar laptop and the kid can play most of the same games kids like these days in Fortnite and Roblox. Your argument of a subscription to plus is also mute when you factor in most kids are playing free to play games that don't require a subscription.
The console makers are able to get the price of their consoles down because of the mass amount of console they can produce. I don't think steam is capable of mass producing so I expect a pricey system.
@SeaDaVie don't be surprised when the west also starts focusing on using AI, all companies focus on one thing profit, so if ai can help them get the product out faster and cheaper than they all will use it. Ai is going to replace us all sadly.
@sciteach yeah premium has been a major disappointment. It's the 20th anniversary of god of war this year and they didn't even port any of the classic Greek saga games

Re: Geoff Keighley's Cryptic Game Awards Teaser Reportedly Not Related to Diablo 4 After All
@Mintie they did announce a fourth entry a year or two ago so could be the right time to finally show it
Re: Geoff Keighley's Cryptic Game Awards Teaser Reportedly Not Related to Diablo 4 After All
Could be uncharted. Also now that I'm thinking more about it could this be Darksiders 4?

Re: PS5 Sales in Japan Quadruple as New Model Launches
I think when they release the PS6 handheld is when they will really compete with Nintendo since Japan is handled focused.
Re: Destiny 3 Allegedly in 'Extremely Early Development', Could Be a Tentpole Title for PS6
Ps6 tent pole? With the time games take to develop it's probably be a PS7 game lol.

Re: Valve Won't Subsidise Steam Machine, Expected to Be Pricier Than More Powerful PS5
@TrollOfWar good luck trying to convince those kid's parents on spending 800+ plus on it though. Especially in this economy.
Re: Valve Won't Subsidise Steam Machine, Expected to Be Pricier Than More Powerful PS5
Guess it won't be competing against consoles after all. Was hoping it would light a fire under Sony but guess not.
Re: Quick Thinking from Sony Should Shield PS5 from RAM Shortages for Now
Wonder how it will affect ps6 though

@nomither6 PS3 was truly the goat
Re: Huge Ghost of Yotei PS5 Patch Drops Next Week, Adds New Game+, Items, and More
Ni interest in going back for new game Plus way too many games. Might go back when legends drops though.
Re: Don't Expect a Resident Evil Requiem Demo, Capcom Has 'No Plans'
@Oram77 agree, you would think they would release a demo to the majority of people who will actually possibly be buying their game.
Re: PlayStation CEO Pushed Through Cut-Price PS5 in Japan After Seeing System Slump Against Switch 2
The rumored PS6 handheld is the only thing that would allow them to compete with Nintendo in japan now. Japan is heavy mobile/handheld focused

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops 7's Single Player Campaign Is Being Torn Apart

Re: Hi-Fi Rush Now Officially in the Hands of 'AI-First' Publisher Krafton
@wildcat_kickz yeah very true. Does make you wonder how big some of these open worlds are going to get with the use of ai.
Re: Hi-Fi Rush Now Officially in the Hands of 'AI-First' Publisher Krafton
@SeaDaVie don't be surprised when the west also starts focusing on using AI, all companies focus on one thing profit, so if ai can help them get the product out faster and cheaper than they all will use it. Ai is going to replace us all sadly.

Re: The Next Horizon Game Is an MMO by NCSOFT for PC, Mobile
Crazy they shown this before the horizon co-op game
Re: 9 PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for November 2025 Announced
Glad I downgraded to extra, premium absolutely sucks.
