Re: Soapbox: I No Longer Think Subscriptions Like PS Plus, Xbox Game Pass Are the Future of Gaming

JohnKarnes

The only reason Microsoft could do the subscription service is they had very few big titles to offer each Year. I got to a point that I was waiting to see the price Microsoft would charge once the deal with Actavision/Blizzard closed. Could they pump 5+ AAA games a year and charge way under the current cost of $69.99 for each game? Or will we end up with $300.+ subscription services?

Re: Soapbox: PSVR2 Already Feels Like It's on Course for Failure

JohnKarnes

I was excited about PSVR2 and was looking forward to buying day one. The lack of game titles made me take a giant step backwards. I needed to see a very strong line up of games for the price of PSVR2. We buy the hardware for access to software! How many good to great games should we expect for $550.00 price of hardware? So far its just not worth it.

Re: TV Show Review: The Last of Us (HBO) Episode 8 - Streamlining Hollows Out Iconic Moments

My family and I all gathers around to watch the show every week. We have all loved every show and the time spent together watching it. I am the only one to play the game. While my wife sat behind me on her computer playing Farmville and other Facebook games. She did turn around to watch me play many scenes.
The game gave me a real fear of the infected that was much more of a threat to me. While the Infected side was almost completely left out of the show, showing the Human side of the game was still a great story in itself. Maybe season 3 will show the infected side. That's a nice wish but I wouldn't hold my breath.

Re: Microsoft Admits Xbox Game Pass Is Harming Software Sales After All

JohnKarnes

Microsoft was hoping more PlayStation owners would jump ship and join Xbox, LOL. Then they allowed the price to be circumvented with the one dollar upgrade. Buying the games you really want over getting trash you would never play is the best choice.
What saves something like PS-Plus is its low cost. I expect many people buy Game Pass for $15 just on the months a big new game releases. Making for a even bigger loss for Microsoft.

Re: Poll: Did You Buy a DualSense Edge?

JohnKarnes

I still use my single launch day controller with out any issues. I have the Sony charger cradle so my controller is always full charge when I pick it up. I have zero need or want for a $200 controller when the one I have works fine for me.

Re: Poll: Will You Pay the PSVR2 Launch Price?

JohnKarnes

I jumped in with the original PSVR day one and loved it at the start. The thing that will stop me from getting PSVR2 is lack of software support. I could be wrong if I am wrong I will pick one up at a later date. I only purchased about 10-15 games one PSVR1. The cost of the hardware with so few titles I would want to play does not justify the cost for me personally.

Re: Poll: Do You Care About 60fps on PS5?

JohnKarnes

You know sometimes a locked 30fps makes the game look and play better. People today are just looking for a hill to stand on. If it's that important to you Don't buy the game and forget about it ever being made!! Maybe buy a PC and get the performance you demand for $2K or more.

Re: Cyberpunk 2077 Sequel Codenamed Project Orion Announced

JohnKarnes

I preordered Cyberpunk 2077. Restarting the game because of a crash really got on my nerves. I still Loved the core game enough to play through one faction to 100% complete all quest and side quest! Then grabbed the platinum on launch PS5. It did still had issues but was much better over all.

So Hell Yeah I will buy the next CyberPunk game DAY ONE!

Re: MultiVersus Open Beta Test: Dates, Times, Characters, and How to Play

JohnKarnes

@kakokaplan Are you new to gaming? What about most MMO games where you can play online PVE? What about No Mans Sky or Fall guys? There are many other games that have co-op online. Most of all why are you yelling, Chill unknown person what I do in life has zero effect on you! I did not say anything about online or off line. I just enjoy PVE more then PVP today.

Re: Best PS Plus Games

JohnKarnes

Missing 7 of the 30 games listed only because I didn't want them. I am always surprised how many people miss such great games. Most of them have seen prices below $20.

Re: 72% of PS Plus Subscribers Satisfied with Service, Says Sony

JohnKarnes

It seems many people hurt the value of PS Plus them self buy buying PS Plus buy the Month! I would not pay the $120 a year $10 a Month nor do I feel its worth that price. At the November Christmas sale price of $34-$39 a year its a fantastic bargain!

As far a stats go I don't care 1% or 100% I only care about my choice.

Re: Sony's Bungie Buyout to Be Investigated by the FTC

JohnKarnes

If I run into issues around games distribution, I will just buy a XBox to set beside my PlayStation 5! My PC has about 10 steam games on it now. Why do some people think PlayStation is laying down not trying to compete. We just came off one of the best generations ever with PS4!! The start of the PS5 generation has also been fantastic. Lack of chip supply to keep up with demand has been the only issue.

Re: Feature: What's Next for PS5, PS4?
