Re: Kids Aren't Dreaming of Owning a PS6, Says Netflix Games Boss

EYEBALL

I have heard plenty of the games on netflix are mobile tier type game's that are just "play, throw away, on to the next" type of products and with the way Roblox's system works with endless amounts of custom made garbage modes I can imagine netflix will do well in that regard because my nephew plays roblox, most of it looks like *hit but he never gets bored.

On that note, some of us used to be in the same boat with old school flash/java games, those were kinda alright but once GTA 6 comes out the constant requesting & demanding from kids to play it (even though they shouldn't be) will be insane so consoles aren't going anywhere, anytime soon

Nothing will change because the virus is deeply embedded into the industry. The virus started when investors and publisher's became a thing in the industry in the 80s.

Yes games are expensive to make now but it is what it is and there is only so many games now that are not looked down on by money hungry vultures with political minds so on that note I only trust a company or a developer now with good ethics & that's primarily small indie studios.

Re: Rise of the Ronin's PC Port Panned by Media Ahead of Release

@Can-You-Believe-Sith Agreed but most PC users just get over it and they don't give a poo because they can do other things than just gaming.

Jeez I do everything on mine because I can't stand looking at touch screen phones, I have a Nokia 2260 flip phone because of it 😅

But it is ridiculous that some games get released the way they do on PC at times.

Re: Call of Duty Confirms Use of Generative AI in Blockbuster PS5, PS4 Franchise

@AgentMantis They have another one in the pipeline coming out this year from the same developer so maybe some of the money went into that project.

I think black ops 6 was a throw away game but this upcoming game will try and compete for mind share and player retention when a game like GTA 6 gets released because I've noticed the best Call of Duty products come out when another big player like rockstar releases a big game.

But I won't be buying it that's for sure, especially with all of this Ai slop 😂

Re: Epic Will Gladly Commit Billions to Fortnite's Continued Dominance

@Jamesblob If I was Google/Apple I wouldn't let their dung on the store either because a high majority of customers will be locked into that system and not playing anything else which hurts the industry as a whole for other people's investments or opportunities when hoping to gain an audience after creating a new application or game.

Re: Ex-PlayStation Exec Shawn Layden Says There's Been a 'Collapse' in Gaming Creativity

Its baffling that they don't try to absorb some of the mobile market by developing/publishing lower tier games that don't have high end graphics but a good amount of money is put into it that leads to good creativity and designs instead of pumping hundreds of millions in to lets say concord, Nintendo do good in that regard.

I would happily take games today (like Sly Cooper for example) that have the graphics quality of the ps2 hardware that would make them look better then most mobile games.

So on that note, games with photo realistic graphics don't appreciate and age well (basically living another life after work) compared to a game that you can just turn and hop on like Pac-Man & Tetris and have fun.
