@Slayer25c : Nothing is free in this world, you either end up paying for the product one way or another or you become the product by serving as a guinea pig in beta testing their "free to play" products.
Which one are you? the one that keeps paying or the guinea pig?
@LikelySatan : If you think paying full price per each title is better for you then it's a win-win situation for everyone, you get to play the game, Microsoft gets full revenue from you and GamePass subscribers play the games for a fraction of the price.
👍😁👍
What happens when that "Connection to Install" server goes away?....Assassin's Creed is a $70.00 title that you are suppose to perpetually own and not subscribe like GamePass.
@B-Real Yeah I ended up getting it for Xbox because of its 120fps...but still it's been too long for them to release this update that should have been there on day 1.
I'm certainly playing Starfield, with the latest fantastic update the developers released, it's getting quite the great feedback from gamers all across.

Re: MultiVersus Is Back, Now Available on PS5, PS4
No thank you!
I'm allergic to money sucking Live Service Games.
Re: Ubisoft Pirate Game Skull and Bones Gets Trial Version, Price Cut as Player Count Reportedly Plummets
@Buck51 Wish more people would share the same sentiment on the matter but sadly most gamers nowadays don't care about gaming preservation.
Re: Ubisoft Pirate Game Skull and Bones Gets Trial Version, Price Cut as Player Count Reportedly Plummets
I will only support this game the day when it no longer depends on any online connections to play or even install.
Which means never.
Re: XDefiant (PS5) - Solid Shooter Does Little to Stand Out, But Still Has Potential
Thank goodness for Call of Duty and GamePass.
Re: Neil Druckmann Claims Comments of Next Naughty Dog Game 'Redefining' the Mainstream View of Gaming Was a Sony Misquote
So I guess he is not "redefining" gaming after all.
Re: Neil Druckmann Claims Comments of Next Naughty Dog Game 'Redefining' the Mainstream View of Gaming Was a Sony Misquote
Kudos to him for calling Sony liers.
Re: Rumour: New DOOM Game Reveal at Xbox Showcase, Coming to PS5
@CallMeDuraSouka : It doesn't get as clear as that....at the end Microsoft gets full revenue for each title sold while GamePass is kept fully funded.

Re: Rumour: New DOOM Game Reveal at Xbox Showcase, Coming to PS5
@Jay767 The point is to sell those games at full price to PlayStation gamers while keep them almost for free for GamePass subscribers.
I think it's an amazing strategy.
Re: Rumour: New DOOM Game Reveal at Xbox Showcase, Coming to PS5
@lacerz So you like playing old games... gotcha.
Thank goodness I prefer to live in 2024 with brand new releases.

Re: Intense PS4 Fighter Samurai Shodown Finally Has Rollback Netcode, Almost Five Years Later
Sometimes is just too late.... especially in an era where we have years long backlog of games waiting to be played.
Obviously Tencent/SNK didn't care much about this game or its fans once they took this long to add such update.
Re: Feature: Revisiting PlayStation Showcase 2023, an Event Sony Must Improve Upon
PlayStation needs to beyond improve that showcase.
Re: Stellar Blade Sequel Is Under Serious Consideration as Dev Eyes AAA Franchise Success
More PC versions, bring it on!
Re: Ghost of Tsushima on PC Attracts 57K Player Peak on Launch Day
@naruball Helldivers 2 say hi
Sony has already said during Thor earnings call that PC ports will be taking far more priority.
Re: Ghost of Tsushima PC Is Now PlayStation's Biggest Single Player Launch on Steam
Keep them coming Sony...love playing PlayStation games on PC as they are the superior version of themselves.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for May 2024?
Not really.....I missed the days of the occasional brand new day 1 release from Sony.
Re: Ubisoft Thanks Players for 'Tremendous Response' to Skull and Bones, Season 2 on the Horizon
So people paid for a game that Ubisoft will eventually render unplayable?
People truly love burning money.
Re: Ghost of Tsushima on PC Attracts 57K Player Peak on Launch Day
@naruball
Remember when people used say:
Now:
How much longer would it take for people to understand that Sony is doing exactly what Microsoft is doing.

Re: Ghost of Tsushima on PC Attracts 57K Player Peak on Launch Day
@OthmaneAD
Helldivers 2 have proven to Sony that games sell better when releasing on PC on Day 1....Trust me Sony has taken notice of that.
Re: Microsoft Commits to Next Call of Duty Game on Xbox Game Pass, New Report Says
Great news for Call of Duty fans.
Greater news for us GamePass subscribers.
Re: Ghost of Tsushima on PC Attracts 57K Player Peak on Launch Day
Numbers like these on PC are the reason the PlayStation console sales are in decline year after year.
Going multiplatform has its financial benefits, but also can destroy your well established fan base.
Re: Activision Tasks New AAA Studio with Crafting Narrative-Based Series
A new Xbox studio takes center stage ready to replace those fired a week ago.
Life and business goes on.
Re: Physical Version of Assassin's Creed Shadows Needs Online Connection for Installation
@Kraaatos : Well it might be a shocker to you, most of us would rather game without online restrictions.
Re: Physical Version of Assassin's Creed Shadows Needs Online Connection for Installation
Always-Online games have been the disgrace of this gaming generation.
Re: New PS2 Emulator Appears to Be Imminent on PS5, PS4
With Sony nothing is free.... chances are it will be part of a PSPlus price hike.
Re: Reaction: Why You Shouldn't Worry Too Much About PS5's Year-on-Year Decline
The year to year decline means less people are buying PlayStation systems...and you said "Not to worry?"....Tell that to Sony.
That's the very reason PlayStation is going is going fully multiplatform depending on PC ports more and more.
Re: Final Fantasy 16, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Fail to Meet Expectations on PS5
Some people needed proof about Final Fantasy Rebirth poor sales performance....I guess Square Enix's brought the proof they needed.
Re: Monster Hunter Series Tops 100 Million Sales Milestone
A total contrast of Square Enix's latest gaming sales report with Final Fantasy.
Re: Square Enix to 'Aggressively' Pursue Multiplatform Strategy from Now On
It seems the Final Fantasy Rebirth poor sales performance on PS5 rumor was all true after all.
