@DennisReynolds Marvel license. Developer known for making fighting games. Exclusivity. Much higher sales expectations. Not an indie title level like this.
@Dogbreath If you stream to Portal from home console and there is energy shortage in your home, and you are far far away with electricity, you still cannot stream because your home console turned off.
@Dogbreath Streaming means you stream from your home console. Which needs to be turned on. If it goes down for any reason, like energy shortage.. no more playing. I mean streaming.
Switch versions means you just turn on the console and play. They may be cut down a little bit, but still the DLSS makes up for that.
@Oram77 Sony killing physical distribution to make PS Store monopoly on their ecosystem doesn’t seem like they would add Steam support on PS6/Handheld. No way.
@SMJ I mean, you can get third party plates and controller customizations that look much better than the first party ones. If third party can do this, why they can’t..
Still not convinced to pay for Plus, but it seems if they add it, it was no longer being purchased that much. They usually add games pretty old, long after release, or the ones that sales are disappointing. Still, this may lead to more people joining the game, they will get it with subscription which is required to play multi anyway.
@Max_the_German They are probably distributing what was left in the warehouses of Yōtei. Adding DLC as digital. They need to get rid of discs they still have in upcoming two years.
Plus they already started changes in factories, there will probably be less and less physical copies produced. Until there is zero.
@DennisReynolds still defending Sony, heh? Let them take your discs, your drive and in the end spam you with all the same games.. you will be still happy, right? Indeed. Pathetic.
I don’t with them to fail. I just see the symptoms. Some defend the game because it’s one of very few exclusives. But is it a good one? Let’s wait to see the sales. I foresee it won’t sell well. Saros didn’t. Marathon didn’t. And Tokon also goes same path.
@ButteredCrumpet because I started living with my girlfriend and apparently I had too much stuff and toys I rarely used but they were taking space or whatever. If you have PC, 3 consoles and some retro ones, there is no damn time to use it all.
@ButteredCrumpet I never said I prefer PC over consoles. I am lucky (or dumb enough) to buy all current generation consoles PS5 XSX and NS2. That way I feel I can try to compare where the experience is better now and then.
I used to own also a PC in last generation but stopped using it at some point and just sold it.
@Anthony_Daniels No. It’s because we are on PlayStation focused website. And what I just said above, I see more people complaining about the same even here.
We are before PS6 release and I can already tell now what will be the lineup of all their games. Basically all the same from PS4/5.
Yet another controller.. and really cannot understand the hype. It doesn’t look that good. The design feels pretty cheap compared to what they could go for.
@DennisReynolds and it seems your comment didn’t age well. On PC player base drops by 50% already now. On PS5 I am just waiting for sales stats to see lots of „but it was never supposed to sell millions it’s niche” damage control comments.
@ButteredCrumpet PC games are much cheaper. Much better discounts. Much more variety. And PC is expensive to build, but cheaper to upgrade later on. Considering PS6 $1200 price tag at best with no upgrade possibilities than buying PS6 Pro later on.
@Anthony_Daniels that’s the problem. Since PS5 generation - none. All their games are bland and safe now. You buy part 3 and it feels like you play the same game third time.
If PS5 sequels were disappointing to you because they were safe, lazy and no risky.. just wait for PS6 generation, where they will want to make sure each game sells and any kind of risk and creativity will be gone.
Yotei was like any other Sony first party sequel of last 5-6 years. Bland. Repetitive. Safe. Uncreative. And this will not change.
Remember. Brutality and nudity, indeed, but by Insomniac standards. So.. rather some candy colorful fake blood fountains and small part of a butt.. with story from a cartoon..

Re: After Several PS Store Knock-Offs, the Real TCG Card Shop Simulator Hits PS5 Next Month
I still dream one day they will rerelease Magic The Gathering on current consoles. I liked these in the past.

@ShadowRJ Criticism is one thing. But they also attached gameplay videos which.. well.. prove their point.

If you have Switch, you just play cartridge.
Re: Modest Sales Predicted for Sony's Critically Acclaimed New Fighter
These are not modest sales.
These are disappointing sales.
Re: 'The Game Feels Super Smooth': Wolverine Will Run at 60fps with Ray Tracing on Base PS5
I smell 1080p with upscaling…
Re: Modest Sales Predicted for Sony's Critically Acclaimed New Fighter
„It’s w niche genre” comments are coming.
Re: Your Steam Deck Can Now Moonlight as a PS Portal, with PS Plus Cloud Streaming
@babybilly Yeah, but then you need to pay for PS+ Premium, which in current circumstances is a no go for me.
Re: Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls Open Beta: Start Times, How to Play, and What's Included
A 300-360k sales globally for exclusive title, of which one is based on highly popular Marvel license.. it is bad result. No excuses.
Re: Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls Open Beta: Start Times, How to Play, and What's Included
@DennisReynolds
Saros sold poorly. And we already have some data on Tokon: around 360k copies sold on PS5. Hardly a success.
And like I said, right after poor sales results are known, “it’s niche game” comments will pop up.
Re: Ghost of Yotei's PS5 Complete Edition Will Get a Physical Disc, But There Are Already Concerns
The main game on disc and DLC to download.

@Stickleman get physical, are pretty cheap if you spend some time to find it.
Re: 40+ PS5, PS4 Games to Buy in PS Store's Ready, Set, Play Sale
Same games as always.
With their discounts, I always begin with filters.
Exclude the most expensive ones (usually are premium/extra editions sold still at high prices).
Then select games, bundles or premium editions.
Sort by amount decreasing and.. here we go.
Same games as always.
Same prices as always.
The “-70%” discount suddenly disappears and all I see is -10-30% mainly.
Digital future with one store looks so amazing

@SMJ same reason they did cooling system - liquid metal issue when console is in vertical position. They didn’t think when designing it.

Re: 'We Are Not Seeing Any Impact on Our Business': Sony Says Physical Disc Backlash Is Having Zero Effect

SM2 is like.. graphics.. and dumb story and MMO activities. For me a story matters more.

@UltimateOtaku91 You saying like this was some kind of AAA system seller game. Not really.
With console prices going up, and sooner or later games prices going up.. PC may seem like a better alternative.
Re: Sony's Looking to Bring More Ads to PlayStation, and Fans Won't Like It
At least now you all should know very well what will happen when they kill physical games and PS Store will be the only store with games.
“ company increasingly looks for ways to maximise profits”.
They will want to maximize profits more and more. How long until they increase game prices?
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 645

Was expecting some “18+” games coming..
A little disappointed
Re: Ex-Wrestler Dave Bautista in Talks to Take Over from Ryan Hurst as Kratos in God of War TV Show

Re: Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls Open Beta: Start Times, How to Play, and What's Included
@DennisReynolds The brand. There is no magical “Mortal Kombat” or “Tekken” in the name. It will be niche title.
Re: Sony's Imminent Marvel Fighting Game Is Off to a Very Strong Start on the Competitive Scene

Halo of course.
Although I like Master Chief Collection much much more.
