I'd like to know what he'd say about Nintendo. It has such a variety of stories. Save the princess. Kill the aliens. Find the monkey. But he won't say anything because it's not customary to write bad things about Nintendo.

Maybe, I do not know, try to communicate with the players on live broadcasts and answer the most popular questions, as all normal studios do. Or make your own events where you can chat with fans. Or if you really don't want to contact people directly, arrange surveys in the game itself and beyond.

P.S. But then they'll have to answer questions about why the game works like s**t on the PS5, I understand.

It's not too late to turn Fairgames into a single-player game with cooperative mechanics, similar to Payday, Heist, Stolen, The Italian Job, etc. You can also add crossover features with characters or references to Sly Cooper, Uncharted, and Ape Escape. This will attract a lot of fan love.

Finally, real professionals will be at the helm, who know how to make exciting and long-lasting online games.

It seems to me that Jeff is just working for Sony as a crisis manager. As soon as people started talking about the cancellation of Fairgames, the shameful promotion of Sony's games on Xbox and Nintendo, and the completely incompetent management of the PlayStation, Grubb immediately started spreading rumors about a new PlayStation Showcase. Nice try, but no. You can't cover up this negativity with your empty promises, which will only add to the sea of disappointment.

Of course, if all your single-player games are safe sequels, unrequested remasters, and unnecessary remakes, you won't make much profit from them, unlike live-service games.

The situation itself is as strange as it can be. This is Sony's weakest generation, with the fewest interesting and unique exclusives. People already don't understand why they should buy consoles, and they're already pessimistic about the next generation. Instead of addressing this issue, Sony decides to share these few games with other gaming systems. It's more like a management attempt to milk the brand dry, without considering what lies ahead. Truly, modern capitalism is one-dimensional, meaningless, and ugly.

This is an overton window. The more people talk about it in the press and on forums, the more likely it is to happen. By that time, society will be ready for radical changes. So PushSquare is accelerating the process and making it possible to some extent.

It's a great trick. Set an absurd price, and then, if people start complaining, lower it to a slightly less absurd price. The fans are less upset, and the publisher still wins.

You forgot about Climate Station. It's also a game, if you can call it that, from Sony for PS5 and PSVR2.

It's okay. Since Sony has decided to follow Microsoft's footsteps, the Xbox will get its own piece of Gran Turimso.

I understand why Microsoft wants to see its games on the PlayStation. But why would Sony release its games on dying Xbox, where only 2.5 people buy games, is a mystery to me. I'm probably just trying to think logically, unlike Sony's managers.

Sony is doing a great job. This strategy has already helped Xbox become the best console player on market. The company's other strategies, such as game services, mobile games, and virtual reality, have also been successful. I believe that the gradual transition to multi-platform gaming will only make PlayStation better and more successful.
