@Pandalulz I used to love Jeff. Back when he was at Gamespot and then Giant Bomb. But I just grew away from them after awhile. Now I get my podcast fix from Sacred Symbols. It would be awesome if Colin had Jeff on or vice versa.
Can't have Jonah Hill's character even touching PlayStation but you have the most corrupt politician Frank Underwood from House Of Cards fully promoting PlayStation products? Weird world we live in.
I'm still excited for this but I'm not thrilled with the 2 character system. Particularly the fact that Yasuke can't parkour and climb well. To me that is the bare minimum an AC character should be able to do.
Wait a second. I thought Dragon Age was an amazing game and it did so well and scored so high in reviews. "A return to form" for Bioware. Why is it so quickly dumped onto PS+?
@wildcat_kickz This isn't merely just "making a new account". This is one of the biggest game publishers on the planet not being able to figure out how to sell their games in all the country's that even tiny publishers have figured out. I would say this is pretty warranted outrage.
@AhmadSumadi Absolutly not. Even thought its pretty much completely finished we had no idea that it would require people to support and maintain it. You get NOTHING good day sir.
@BirdUp Only 6 people got laid off. But all these news stories that say "Entire US team laid off!!" makes it sound so much worse. I'm honestly not sure why or how it ended up being such a big story.
I'm not defending this move but if you have a studio in Seattle that costs X amount and you can do the same thing in China for cheaper they will probably make that call.
I've always wanted to try this game but its never been on monthly PS+ nor PS+ extra. Why don't they put this on as a monthly game and gauge some interest in it. Feels like they just want to forget it.
You missed an option in the what do you want next from god of war poll. Answer : Put the franchise in the vault for 10 years and work on something else.
We already knew that giving fans what they want in a game like Marvel Rivals works. Sony has not attempted to do that yet. Only by accident with Helldivers.
Whether Sony wants to acknowledge it or not, PC is where this all ends up. Its just a matter of when. What Xbox is doing with the "this is an Xbox" stuff is where its all going.
I got really lucky at Best Buy. I asked and the guy looked in the back and found one. It is frustrating that Sony hasn't ramped up the production of these things.
@Uromastryx Since game development is so bloated and time consuming now god forbid these companies trying to get things done quicker and cheaper... BTW where was all this outrage when automation was taking over trade worker jobs...
The days of consoles are over. Now look at this totally original game my amazing company Tencent is working on called Light of Motiram! Its totally not a Horizon ripoff at all and has amazing microtransactions!. Seriously why are we still listening to this guy? As far as I'm concerned his opinion is null and void after you sign a contract with the devil that is Tencent.
@get2sammyb I cant think of a more financial flop than this. Back in the day Daikatana was a very memorable flop. Destiny 1 was also considered a pretty big flop critically when it launched.

Re: Rise of the Ronin Would Not Have Been Made Without Sony
I've wanted this game but it never seems to go on sale. Guess I'll keep waiting.
Re: Moon Studios 'Fully Independent' After Purchasing Publishing Rights from Take-Two
I bought this game on Steam when it first went early access. It has a lot of potential. I would describe it as Diablo souls like.
Re: Kojima Cameo Mission Coming to Control Ultimate Edition on PS5
@LikelySatan It doesn't take that long. basically once you get telekinesis the combat really slaps.

Re: Suicide Squad Bombed So Bad, It Basically Took Wonder Woman and Monolith Down with It
I would have been ok with Rock Steady shutting down over Monolith.

Re: In Big News from Little Tokyo, Samurai Pizza Cats: Blast from the Past Revealed

Re: The Hype for Monster Hunter Wilds Is Real as World Sales Erupt Seven Years After Release
Should I play World before I play Wilds? I've never played Monster Hunter but I'm curious.
Re: State of Play Confirmed for Wednesday, 40+ Minutes of PS5 News and Updates
I'm always more optimistic for State of Play when they don't say specifically what they showing.
Re: The Order: 1886 Dev Pitched a Sequel to Sony, But Was Denied

Re: Great Scott! Back to the Future Co-Creator Says a Brand New Game Is on the Way
I don't know man... That Telltale game was so mid. Just leave the good stuff alone!
Re: Rumour: God of War Will Tackle Egyptian Mythology in Next Game
I was hoping they would be making a new original game and put god of war in the vault for awhile.
Re: Preview: Assassin's Creed Shadows Is the Golden Ticket Ubisoft Needs
Assassins Creed is my guilty pleasure. I just love the loop. Love the different time periods. I'm so ready for this.
Re: Poll: How Would You Have Reacted to a Live Service God of War Announcement?
You missed an option in the what do you want next from god of war poll. Answer : Put the franchise in the vault for 10 years and work on something else.
Re: Black Ops 6, Warzone Ranked Play Will Be Less Sweaty Soon on PS5, PS4
I wish this would go the other way in Apex Legends. I had to quit the game because controller people had broken auto aim.
Re: Vintage Retro Sports Games Preserved on PS5, PS4 from 30th January
Who wants this...
Re: Sony Cancels Bluepoint, Bend Studio PS5 Games, One Being a Live-Service God of War Title
Sony is like a drug addict trying to chase the live service high. Doesn't care how it affects the family or friends.
Re: The Invisible Woman's Marvel Rivals Super Power Exposes Quickplay Bots
They gotta work on the matchmaking balance. It seemed fine when it first released but now there are lots of 1 sided matches.
Re: Marvel Rivals Will Grow Rapidly with a New Hero Being Added Every Month and a Half
@nomither6 It takes that long to come up with 1 original character...
Even games like League of Legends can do 4 or 5 a year.
Re: Marvel Rivals Will Grow Rapidly with a New Hero Being Added Every Month and a Half
No wonder the Overwatch devs are salty. takes them like a whole year to add 1 new hero.
Re: Marvel Rivals' First-Month Revenue Shows Sony Should Continue to Pursue Live Service on PS5, PC
We already knew that giving fans what they want in a game like Marvel Rivals works. Sony has not attempted to do that yet. Only by accident with Helldivers.
Re: Mister Fantastic's First Marvel Rivals PS5 Gameplay Looks, Well, Fantastic
Mr. Fantastic has basically the same kit as Zac from League of Legends.
Re: Talking Point: Is PlayStation Right in Saying PC Isn't a 'Major Risk' to Console Business?
Whether Sony wants to acknowledge it or not, PC is where this all ends up. Its just a matter of when. What Xbox is doing with the "this is an Xbox" stuff is where its all going.

Less sci fi next season please.
Re: Alan Wake 2's Latest Update Tackles PS5 Pro Problems, Includes Toggle for PSSR
The new Balanced graphics mode is really good. They should have opened with it.
Re: Hideki Kamiya Cannot Describe Joy of Returning to Capcom for Okami PS5
Hopefully after Okami 2 is successful we can get another Viewtiful Joe.
Re: Deathstroke Completes Suicide Squad's PS5 Content Roadmap
Should have opened with Deathstroke. Might have gotten 10's of more players.
Re: Ex-PlayStation Boss Thinks the Days of Consoles Are Numbered
The days of consoles are over. Now look at this totally original game my amazing company Tencent is working on called Light of Motiram! Its totally not a Horizon ripoff at all and has amazing microtransactions!.

Re: All The Game Awards 2024 Nominees Revealed, Astro Bot Up for 7 Awards
If Shadow of the Erdtree wins GOTY this entire award show is null and void. Its such a dumb decision to have DLC get nominated for GOTY.
Re: Sounds Like Microsoft Isn't Done with Gaming Acquisitions Just Yet
I'm telling you Microsoft is playing the long game. Once streaming games is the norm they will be positioned to take the #1 spot.
Re: Secret Level Creator Comments on Concord's Awkward Anthology Inclusion
Don't worry Tim Miller. Sony, and Firewalk are also totally baffled as to why nobody liked Concord...
Re: Indiana Jones Looks Like an Adventure Worth Waiting for on PS5
No waiting! Game Pass for me.
Re: Hands On: Cyberpunk 2077, Final Fantasy 16, and Metaphor: ReFantazio All Get a Boost on PS5 Pro
I was really hoping that FF16 would get a big pro update.
Re: PS5 Dominates UK Black Ops 6 Sales, As Game Pass Causes Xbox Share to Collapse
@Flaming_Kaiser I think that is what their plan is. Xbox is playing the long game. Eventually everything will be streaming.
Re: PS5 Dominates UK Black Ops 6 Sales, As Game Pass Causes Xbox Share to Collapse
Down on Xbox means they probably have new Game Pass subscribers which is probably what they want in the long run.
Re: Insomniac Developers Psyched for PS5 Pro, Enhanced Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is 'Phenomenal'
This isn't the first game on my list to replay but its nice to know that when I do it will look and run better on my pro.
Re: Concord Cost Sony Over $200 Million, And Didn't Make a Single Cent
