At this point steam is a likey option for me. I like physical games, but if it goes all digital I can get steam games a lot cheaper then PlayStation, I like first party PlayStation games but there output this gen has be a disgrace, and with steam wouldn't have to pay for online.
Man the more and more that comes out it sounds like it's going to be a lot more than just 4 or 5 studios that end up shutting down. I know they were trying to find buyers but almost no one is buying game studios anymore. Really wonder if this will be the last straw for xbox fans.
Old news, it was reported visual arts was going to do an uncharted remake but was seems to expensive so they did the last of us until naughty dog took it from them.
@themightyant when it comes to first party you have to think a good majority is the hardcore base which is a good amount who prefer physical over digital already. With gta 6 there's a ton of casuals who will just buy the easier more convenient option (digital). I actually prefer physical, but it's looking very dim for us. The younger generation is moving to an all digital future, my fear is that it will get to a point where we don't even have the digital copy, but just a streaming pass to it.
Honestly don't think take two care. Physical sales are rapidly declining, would have referred buying physical on disc, but can see take two point in not wanting any leaks before the launch.
Thing is DOA, bad time to launch. They can't rely on their hardcore base who.desire the top line in tech and they out priced themselves for the casuals.
I doubt anyone will buy these studios. The market is really bad right now. Still can't believe all the Xbox fans was cheering for this new CEO, I'm like she came from AI this was never going to end good.
@themightyant I really think once they show the gameplay of gta 6, it's probably going to overshadow all of the upcoming games this year. When the game comes out I think a lot of people will be calling off work and businesses will be short staffed lol.
I mean god of war is PlayStations biggest franchise. Also think it's going to get a release date announced at the state of play in September for a march or April 2027 date.
Game looks great will probably be in the top ten best selling of the year. Gta 6 will naturally take spot 1. Am curious to see how many people make the jump to PS5 from PS4 which might actually help improve sales of wolverine as well

Re: GTA 6 Confirmed to Be an $80 Game

Re: God of War Laufey Part of PS5 Dev's Plans from the Start, Pitched in 2018
