Re: More Than Half of PlayStation's Investment Could Be in Live Service Games by 2025

Gbarsotini

I mean, I recently just bought a PS5, so I´m not abandoning Sony any time soon, and I still have an incredible backlog of games from the PS4. But if this trend continues to grow, next gen I´ll go with the Switch 2. It´s not only the live service games, but the censorship (while allowing it in games like Last of Us 2) and lack of support/abandon (in my eyes) from/of indie, A, AA japonese developers are killing it for me.

Re: PSVR2 Will Have Over 20 Major Launch Titles

I won´t buy the older PSVR because I`m saving for the PSVR2, but kinda stupid to not let older games be compatible (I read somewhere about this), I mean, PS5 already has retrocompatibility with the PS4, they just need to add support for the camera and the ps Move, with such a large library of games it will be kinda stupid to not do this. But knowing Sony they will likely release remakes of the older games.

Re: Death Stranding 2 Just Got Outed by Norman Reedus

@Korgon @KayOL77 I did the same, i got through the first one, barely, because the story was intriguing enough, but the gameplay was.. well, not for me..

Nothing against a sequel.. on the contrary, I wish there was more games like this in the industry, people trying something new. But they won't always be able to please everyone.

Re: Sony: Acquisition of Bungie Represents a Major Step Forward in Becoming More Multiplatform

@Bismarck Your comment was lost in the middle of other topics, just saw it now.

I never said I hate play on PC, I just said I don´t like it, and I even play on there ocasionally. The reasons? I dont know, this separation of Console gamers and PC gamers is as old as the game industry. But for me, lets see.

1 - It´s cheaper, I don´t need to buy a PC (which is awesome) because I won`t use it for anything else besides play games.I have a laptop with a very mediocre configuration so I can acess internet and work, so thats enough for me;
2 - I´m a Playstation fanboy (in the good way), so the satisfaction of buy the latest Sony console it´s something that I think is shared with a lot of people in this website, I cant explain. But a like to see my gamer history throught the console, my trophies, watch Crunchyroll, talk to friends, and play the latest exclusives games.
3 - This is something I think its slowly ending, but I´m a collector, so I like to see my games on my shelf, in physical format. I miss the days of the big box on PC, I still have my Monkey Island 3 on display in my room.

But your explanation of course makes complete sense, in the end I think that the price is the primary factor for console gaming, and second the exclusives.

@Sakisa The United States is one of the most divided countries in the world, I dont think injecting american politics into a worldwide company is a recipe for sucess. Whats the problem with a neutral instance in this subject? A neutral response in a videogame company shouldnt be considered an outrage. Your response stating that you dont need to hear someones opinion on this is proof that Sonys decision was correct.

Re: Sony: Acquisition of Bungie Represents a Major Step Forward in Becoming More Multiplatform

@Apfelschteiner @Apfelschteiner personally, I would not care one bit, for me the acquisition would be more a defensive move than trying to limit acess from games to the competition.

About the other comment, I agree completely. Sony is a worldwide plataform, and should respect the opinions of everyone, even the ones they don´t agree. Bungie should do as they please, as long as they dont disrespect this company policy.

Re: PS5, PS4 Exclusives Will 'Deteriorate' if Launched on PS Plus, Says Sony CFO

Gbarsotini

@MarcG420 Yeah, I don´t know really. Maybe you´re right. And Sony must know what they´re doing. But on the other hand, they already help financially and already hold some exclusivity in some games, for example, Final Fantasy XVI. I wouldn't mind if some of these were day one on the platform. I say this more to attract people to the new Plus, and mitigate a little of this day one subject. I particularly always buy my games in physical media, even after playing them on PSN in the monthly selection, when I like them, so Im not complaining, I'm satisfied with what sony is doing.

Re: FIFA Announces Plans to Release EA Sports FC Rival and More

Gbarsotini

It took years for EA to refine the game and reach that point. Its not just "well I have the name, it should be enough". Its a risk move, because if FIFA delivers a worst game, which its almost certain, they will only hurt the brand. It seens they dont really accepted well EAs decision.

Re: Lengthy Gotham Knights Gameplay Walkthrough Revealed

Gbarsotini

@Ninjadeath2023 Yeah, I have played them when they launched for the PS3, really awesome games, Asylum beeing my favorite! Very creepy. It´s the last one, Arkham Knight, that I still haven´t played. It´s in my shelf for at least 4 years, maybe its time I give it a chance.
