@carlos82 I'm well aware of what Nintendo and Microsoft have been doing. Lol. They do it if they feel it's in their best interest. I also never said there was no demand for retro gaming either, so I'm not sure why you think I was disregarding it? The only point I made is that Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo are more invested in the future for hardware and software than retro, which I'd imagine is obvious. Despite that, they'll always give us the option for retro gaming if they feel it makes business sense.

@TheArt There's a reason no one is agreeing with you(looking at your thumbs down there). No one forced anyone's opinion on him from the start. If you know how a comment section works, then you'd notice that we all tend to disagree and that's why we reply(which is there for a reason). He simply disregarded a differing opinion because it didn't fit his and decided to block(which reflected that quite well). In the real world, that is quite immature. From what I read from you, you are obviously white knighting(possibly an alt) and aren't doing yourself any favors. I have every right to disagree with him, just as you have that right too. The only difference is that I kept it respectful as possible while he decided to insult someone he doesn't know because he didn't like what they had to say. Good try though?

"This the thing I don't get on the internet."
If you don't understand how disagreements work, then I can't imagine how you deal with it in the real world. End of the conversation as far as I'm concerned. Good luck.

@Averagewriter It's not my problem if you don't believe me. I know what is fact and fiction.I'm not here to prove my worth to a random person on the internet. From where I sit, the fact that you need to block me shows your maturity level and aren't willing to except differing opinions. Sorry to say, but not everyone shares your dated beliefs.Thank you for me doing the favor of not having to listen anymore of your ramblings I suppose. shrugs

@Averagewriter @Averagewriter Again, it's not Sony, Nintendo's or Microsoft's jobs to deal with those issues. Their jobs are to move forward and gives us the future.

@Averagewriter As do I. I started with the Atari 2600 before moving on to NES, SNES, PlayStation, N64, Gamecube, PS2, PS3, 360...well you get the point. As much as I appreciate the past, I don't expect any of these console makers to bring me full b/c to play every game in my back catalog. I would be a nice convenience, but that's our own problems to resolve. Not everyone who loves a more powerful console is always bragging about which is better except extremists, or would I call them, fanboys. I don't fault Sony or Microsoft for doing so because it's competition and it's their job to talk up their products. Plus, more power doesn't always mean more graphics. More horsepower also brings more gameplay possibilities that wasn't possible in previous generations. That's what I look forward to the most. Personally speaking, I do love a how far we progress with visual display, but that's just icing on the cake in most cases.

@Averagewriter You're asking for too much. If you have those consoles, then use them. You can always switch them out when you feel the itch to play old school games. What you're asking for would be too expensive and doesn't make sense from a business standpoint. If you don't care about specs, then I guess you don't want to play games, because every console has those. All in all I get that it's hard having every console you own hooked to a TV can be a pain, but there is no real quick fix to these problems. Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo aren't obligated to give what you want or any of us. They're focusing on the future, not the past.

@Sam-Bridges If Sony is looking to get PS4 owners to move over to PS5 quickly as possible...it won't be more than the $399-$499 price tag. I think they learned their lesson with PS3.

@Averagewriter In other words...you're stuck in the past. You also have high expectations if you think the console will be B/C with PS3, PS2 and PS1 as well.

@KingSimba I don't see how they are the same. That's like saying every pizza looks the same. The point of those games is to be realistic, yes, but they aren't the same in all regards as they have different environments, timelines, etc. Even their art style isn't the same. Might as well call every Mario, Pokemon and Zelda game the same. My point is maybe it's better that you look at each game at what it offers and less on how you think they all look the same. Personally speaking, I don't care how a game looks whether realistic, cartoony, water colored, cel shade. If it has great gameplay, tells good story and keeps me immersed, that's all that matters. Not trying to crap on your opinion mind you. I just feel you're over judging games for the wrong reasons.

@Ken_Kaniff Perhaps, but how far back will they go? A few from the PS1 days would be nice.

@KingSimba Those "realistic" games have color too. Lol. Unless you mean overly, exaggerated color style of games, then sure. Ape Escape would be a perfect fit along with Jak and Sly. I'd like to see a Skyblazer remaster/remake. I'd be surprised if anyone remembers that game back in the 90's.

@AdamNovice Ahh. Well, Socom makes perfect sense porting to PC too with cross-play enabled. I can see a Socom game being successful with the right developer on board. GG is the ideal fit.

@I_Like_It It'll be released during November.

@TurboTom Bro, the specs that are mentioned in articles are rumors, and haven't been confirmed to be true. No one knows what the actual specs are until Sony reveals them. There's no reason to be a negative Nancy at this point. My advice would be to stop reading rumors and just wait until it's confirmed. That way, you'll at least be more enthusiastic. Or you know...find other things to do to pass the time. If power is the only thing that matters to you between both consoles, then perhaps PC gaming would be better for you.

@Rob_230 Doubt Nintendo is going to do any of that. In all honesty, it would be overshadowed with PS5 and Series X out during that period. Perhaps after the dust clears a little.

@nookie_egg A Syphon Filter Tetris themed game will be announced.

@AdamNovice I doubt they'll announce HZD2 for PC. Socom I can see.

@TomKnows I'll take it that you're joking. But if not...then it's clear you're delusional. Which is it? 😉

@3Above I like the idea of BluePoint. They are already talented in remaking classics. With how long they've been working with Sony, it seems like a great match. If they do by chance acquire them, I hope they also take a chance on making their own original projects. Sony can surely hire plenty of talent to make that happen.

@3Above More than likely they already have one working on another Uncharted game despite not confirming it. Can't see Sony letting a money maker take a backseat. I'd imagine they'll acquire another studio to increase their 1st party output.

@3Above Well The Show is their bread and butter, so of course. They do make other games on occasion, but I think that'll be less likely now with The Show going to other platforms. Sony will probably hire more staff to take on porting. Either way, it's more money for Sony and MLB.

@3Above They didn't lose San Diego Studios. Lol. They are still a Sony first party studio. Only difference is, that they'll be developing for other platforms in regards to MLB The Show. Any other non-baseball projects will be PlayStation Exclusives. Not sure why you thought they lost them. O_o

@Porco I suspect they probably know that most of the published reviews will be lower than they hoped, and pushed back the embargo in hopes of getting some quick sales before the scores pop up. Who knows for sure, but it seems a bit sketchy to me. I hope I'm wrong and the rating score is above average. It won't stop the diehards from buying anyway and those who backed it.

@carlos82 I get being a huge fan of a franchise and all, but $60 is a bit much of a gamble regardless of the fact. Just my opinion there as I'm aware people will spend their money however they want. I honestly couldn't do it without some reassurance.

@Dodoo I highly doubt it. Perhaps you should contact them directly.

@BearsEatBeets Agreed. Plus it would drive the price up for the console, let alone just buying one separately would be more than the $50-$60 price tag for a DS4 to begin with. Longer battery life is more important.

@Kaiden It just came out...how are sales terrible when we don't even know what it has sold yet? Lol.

@Odin1985x It won't be on Xbox. Especially with it using the Decima Engine. PC is an exception.

@Torakaka You don't seem to have a grasp that Sony owns Japan Studio, therefore owns Gravity Rush. Joker was in Smash because Sony has no ownership over that character as it's owned by Atlus.

@GodGamer Handhelds were an afterthought for Sony. Vita's only real issue was expensive memory cards and lack of support from Sony themselves. Leaving the handheld market entirely was the right move going forward. Their core gaming experience has always been home consoles. PS Now as it stands, will certainly make a turn around now that Sony is putting more serious focus on that and less on things that were risky endeavors, such as Vue. You are entitled to your opinion, and that's as far as I go with the topic. Good day.

@DeepSpace5D There's no guarantee they would have, but their track record is certainly better. The only real issue I noticed about the remake was the gameplay and controls are a bit dated for the modern era of gaming.

@NomNom It's not about recognizing talent for Sony. The studio has to match Sony's vision to be a potential target for acquisition. I'm sure Obsidian has many talented staff, but Sony likely didn't see them as a fit.

@GodGamer If the game they published isn't a Sony World Wide Studio developer, then such a game going to PC is inevitable.

@DeepSpace5D Blue Point didn't develop the MediEvil remake. That was Other Ocean.

@Lobbo95 The most vocal ones( goes for anyone regardless of console you play on) are always party poopers.

@AlexSora89 How do you figure?

@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy Some people just love being negative. Whether it's just wired in their personality, or simply just looking for attention.

@GodGamer Not likely since it's a part of their core gaming business. They made some nice changes that will likely lure in more subscribers. Vue on the other hand, just wasn't getting off the ground and it makes sense to end it now than lose more money on it. I am using it now and I love it, and it's a shame to see it go.

@nessisonett It's not rocket science my friend. It's not a fanboy thing at all. If you understood business, you'd know the reason why exclusives exist.

@BearsEatBeets I think if they do Vice City again, it'll likely be present day, like San Andreas in GTA V.

@Bamila With the Decima engine? Doubt it. It's obviously a console exclusive.

@BearsEatBeets Just incase you're serious...that's doubtful. Their efforts are most certainly in the next GTA installment.

@nessisonett If the corp that purchases them shares their vision, then the relationship between the two shouldn't be any concern. Besides, these indie companies now have larger capital and can feel more at ease financially.

As long as they are a Sony first party studio, that isn't happening. Perhaps PC since they're not a direct competitor, but it wouldn't make sense to bring to other platforms. Besides, the game's success is a question mark. MM should focus on the game itself and let Sony worry about how to market it.

Hilarious and so true.

@AFCC It's still up.

@nessisonett It's also entirely pointless to care about what people think to begin with. You're just empowering them to continue by acknowledging it. People criticize all the time for many reasons. It's part of living.

If they lay off having to fill up your gas tank for your bike, I might give the sequel a try. That just annoyed me to no end when I played it.

@Nyne11Tyme That would be nice. Barely played them on PS3.

@shyhh Lol. Would be lawsuits.
