I mean, after the disgusting reception, lies and misinformation surrounding Shadows on social media, YouTube, etc., I don't blame them. I'd be tired too.
Yes, there were a lot of people from the DW community asking for a remaster/remake of the old games. For quite some time.
Some asked for 3, some for 4, some for 5, even a few for 6.
But that's the thing, the DW/SW community is pretty small, so I'm not sure what it is that they're expecting in terms of sales.
I don't think it's going to sell as much as Origins.
An almost 10 years old game that's always cheap, and a 4 years old game that's been on Game Pass forever, so if you have both consoles and are interested in it you've probably played it already (also goes cheap usually).
I'd say Viewfinder it's the good pick but that's not for me at all. So for me in particular it's a terrible month.
I feel like for most people it depends on the game. I know a lot would pay $80 for GTA6, Ghost of Yotei or a hypothetical new Sony exclusive/new FromSoft single player game.

I have no idea who the hell Doja Cat is and I don't want to find out.

Re: People Don't Buy Anywhere Near As Many Games As You Think
Goes to show how sites like this or even social media really doesn't represent the majority.
Re: That New Digimon Game's Turning Out to Be a Huge Hit
I knew it was a good one as soon as I saw it got a 6 here.
Re: Talking Point: Are You Getting Sick of Sony's Supposedly 'Samey' Approach to Story Telling?
My problem is more on the side of gameplay than story.
Re: Marvel Cosmic Invasion's Unannounced Final Characters Have Leaked Online
@Markatron84
I agree with that. In both games. But I feel like the devs think (maybe fairly so?) that the games won't sell as well without the poster boys.
Re: PS Plus Looks Better Than Ever After New Xbox Game Pass Price Rises
Playing two $70 games a month for $30 (if you have the time) it's still pretty good, but yeah, it does suck.
Re: Ghost of Yotei Gets a Near Perfect Score in Japan's Most Famous Gaming Magazine
Famitsu is really random with its scores. The JoJo fighting game has a 40/40. 😂
I don't take the guys seriously.

For the payers.
Re: 'The Vast Majority of Players Don't Post on Reddit' - Helldivers 2 Boss Warns of Online Tunnel Vision
That's why I don't usually care for the articles that say "gamers are asking for this!" and when you click you see a few reddit posts...👀
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Essential Games for September 2025?
An almost 10 years old game that's always cheap, and a 4 years old game that's been on Game Pass forever, so if you have both consoles and are interested in it you've probably played it already (also goes cheap usually).

What are the other games the title implies?

It's not even a Metroidvania. 😅
Re: Resident Evil 2, 3 PS1 Ports Disappoint with No Trophy Support on PS5, PS4
Remember when people played games because it was fun? 🤣
Re: Assassin's Creed Shadows Is Europe's Best-Selling New Game of 2025
The AC haters are hilarious, always moving the goal post. Now that there's news that it sold well, "but how many people finished it??????".
FFS. If you don't like the game, stop caring so much about it.
Re: 'We'll Continue to Evolve the PS Store': Sony on Making PS5, PS4 Shopping Better
@RawnDawn
That's one of the few things where I think the Xbox store is superior. Most regions use their own currency.
Re: No Plans for Yakuza, Shenmue Cameos in New Virtua Fighter on PS5
It's because Kiryu doesn't hit women. They'll say that bs again. 🤣
Re: No Plans for Yakuza, Shenmue Cameos in New Virtua Fighter on PS5
Finally some story. I prefer that before cameos.
Re: Katsuhiro Harada Wants to Show Off the Unfinished Tekken X Street Fighter
Tekken x Street Fighter was definitely the one I was more interested in out of the two. That's just my luck.
I would probably buy it if it ever releases.
Re: Jaw Dropping PS5 Action Game Woochi the Wayfarer Inspired by Classic Korean Novel
Now we're calling trailers with no gameplay jaw dropping?
Re: Massive Atlus Survey Mentions Metaphor Sequel, Yet More Persona Spin-Offs
No, no Persona soulslike, please. There's plenty of those.
If they want to make one, it could be a new subseries or something like that.

Not a fan of Platinum honestly, but I love Team Ninja.
Re: A Quote from a Sony Exec Is Causing a Hubbub Among PS5 Fans Again
Reminds me of that time everyone used a quote about Ubisoft talking about subscription services.
Re: Call of Duty 'Too Big to Fail' as Activision Braces for Massive Battlefield 6 Hype
As much as I hate to say it, they're probably right.
CoD is always on top of the lists year after year.
Re: PS3's Store Has Been Broken for a Day, Forcing Fans to Fear the Worst
I have my PS3 tuned up so I don't care too much.
Re: PS5 Console Sales Surpass 80 Million Milestone, Closing in on PS3
That's a lot of units sold, which is impressive but makes it even more sad when games like Astrobot don't sell that much (comparatively).
Re: Mafia: The Old Country Explores Side Content in New PS5 Trailer
It's gonna be a game for sure.
Re: PS5 Is the Only Console with a Proper Physical Copy of Cronos: The New Dawn
This one was the proud game #1000 I've bought on Xbox.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 592
Finished Terra Memoria and Fate/Extra recently.
Will be playing:
Raidou Remastered.
Sky Force Anniversary.
Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound.
Final Fantasy 3 Pixel Remaster.
And maybe Book of Demons.
Oh, and I wanna play Jade Empire again, such a great game. It's retrocompatible on Xbox, so I'm glad to have both consoles.

Gotta try it if it's better than Wuchang.
Re: Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Patch 1.4.0 Brings Battle Retry, Better UI, Teases 'More to Come'
@EfYI
I mean... The way you say it, sounds like the one selling its body is the game. And that wouldn't be entirely incorrect.
Re: PS Plus Essential Games for August 2025 Announced
Already played Lies of P Day 1 on Game Pass, so terrible month for me.
Re: Sony's Horizon Franchise Has Sold a Wild 38 Million Units Worldwide
Do we know how many on PC and how many on console?
Re: Sony Job Listing Implies More PS5 Exclusives Will Be Ported to Xbox, Nintendo
From just a money perspective, there's no reason at all not to port the older games.
The people on PS or PC that wanted to buy them already did.
Re: Expedition 33 Devs 'Exchange Ideas' with Final Fantasy Team
Expedition 33 was okay. Maybe so much hype made me expect more.
Solid 6-7.
Music 10/10 though.
Re: Plants vs. Zombies Appears Ready to Return in Leaked PS5 Remaster
Not needed at all, but not as unneeded as all the Sony remasters. 🤣
Re: Sony's Not Done Finding New Ways to Sell You The Last of Us
I wouldn't read this, not even for money.
Re: Assassin's Creed Shadows' Big New Game+, Level Cap Update Arrives Next Week on PS5
I'm going back when the DLC releases. Amazing, beautiful game.
Re: Lollipop Chainsaw Statement Invites Scrutiny, as New Game and Anime Are Announced
I'm gonna go grab my 🍿.
Re: Lollipop Chainsaw Statement Invites Scrutiny, as New Game and Anime Are Announced
Any publicity is good publicity.
As this article and others I've seen show, it was a smart way of creating buzz.
Re: Xbox U-Turn the First Step Towards Gamers Rejecting $80 Games
I feel like for most people it depends on the game.
I know a lot would pay $80 for GTA6, Ghost of Yotei or a hypothetical new Sony exclusive/new FromSoft single player game.
Re: Jun 2025 USA Sales: PS4's Record Launch Month Stomped by Switch 2
That's the power of Nintendo... Nintendo Power. 🤣
Honestly I've never liked Nintendo, but it SELLS.
I might grab a Switch (1) sometime in the future though, to play the third party stuff I missed.
Re: Xbox Backtracks on $80 Price Tag for The Outer Worlds 2 Following Public Outcry
I hope people complain about every $80 game, no matter the developer. But I know that isn't going to be the case.
Re: 'Increasingly Selective Consumers' to Blame for Underperformance of Blades of Fire
I just don't like Mercury Steam stuff.
Re: Despite Full PS5 Release, Splitgate 2 Is Going Back to Beta to Launch Again in 2026
I sense more potential for this than what Concord was, even if just a little.
