Re: Free PS Plus Extension for All Members Affected by PSN Outage

Nexozi

@nomither6 Yea, everyone should get everything free. You don't need PSN to play fortnite and I'm sure it's the same for other f2p games. ** Sick of this culture that seems to have popped up after covid that believes they should get everything for free. Like what else do u expect for free? Maybe a mobile or even your broadband paid for? *** No, they're businesses giving people a service, why shouldn't they get paid for it? Like why would Sony not want to get back the money they're paying to MS to host their services? Hasn't happened since 2011 and it was only down for a day.

** Edit:
Your playing a free game and getting free online. What compensation do u think u should be given for the nothing that you're spending?

*** Edit:
Furloughing people was the worst thing. Has given them a sense that they should get everything free and other people will pay for them.

Re: Forza Horizon 5 Confirmed for PS5, Out This Spring

@AdamNovice They'll all be over on PS soon, especially if Horizon does well. Only thing is if they wait to the next installment of each to release on PS or do additional work and release the older games before the next installment. Think Starfield will release on PS this year as well.

@Darude84 I don't think he's comparing them directly. Like Mario Kart is also mentioned. Think they mean in terms of what each game offers. GT7 is the best sim racer and Horizon is the best arcade racer. They're both on different levels to other games that compare to them. Forza Motorsport was really bad when it launched, but is a lot better now. The main issue I have with it now is it's single player is live service! The single player career is not a proper career of races that are always available. It's just some races that are available for a month and then gone. It's handy though to use for the MS reward points for playing a game for 15 minutes.

Great game, have really enjoyed all the Horizon games. Though 2 and 4 are my personal faves. Booted up the first one a couple of months ago, just for old times. The game looks great on the series X, so should look stunning on the Pro. MS have heard the complaints about Sony not releasing enough exclusives on PS5 so MS have decided to share their exclusives.

@LogicStrikesAgain Thanks, oh yes both will cost money and you don't really get anything for free nowadays. Like the MS reward points take time to collect everyday.

I get where ur coming from as well with people saying games are free when they're renting them. I guess they're viewed as free as its a game getting added to the service that they've already been paid for.

This year does look to be a spectacular year for GPU in terms of value. Which is probably the first time that could be said. Last year was good with Indy and COD.

Too many games and not enough time or storage room. 😂

@LogicStrikesAgain It is if you don't pay for GPU. 🙂

Should look into MS reward points while they're not as good as they used to be, they will bring the price down. The closest I've gotten to paying full price for GP since it released was buying a few years worth of EA play and converting.

My GPU doesn't run out until August 2026 and then I'll just get another year with my points. Since they've brought down the amount you can stack to 13 months.

Also there's more than just 1 game to play on the service. Ive played many games that I wouldn't have tried but did because they were "free". Also saved money by being able to try games first before actually buying them on the PS5.

You should check out the games that are being added this year. If u want to play a game that's leaving u can buy it for a discount. Or wait a bit longer and buy it in a sale. Though I don't buy games on the Xbox, I use it just for GPU.

Just my thoughts on the whole "you're renting games" argument against GPU. When I was young we used to rent games from stores for 1 or 2 nights at a time.

Perhaps the only game I'll be buying this year is Ghost of Yotei. The sooner it comes out the better as I've nearly finished my 4th play through of Ghost of Tsushima.

Re: Horizon's MMO Appears to Have Been Cancelled

Nexozi

That is an awful situation to be in. Not great to be working to save not just ur job but also the company.

Sony must be doing a complete 180 on their live service initiative. Concord cut them deep.

As I said the other day hopefully some of those assets and stories can be used on whatever they make next.

Re: Lists of Sony’s Cancelled Live Service PS5 Games Paint a Worrying Picture

Nexozi

@YoureTooSlowBro I guess when you believe you are correct you can just go all in on being condescending.

So my opinion is different from urs, so obviously I've just been brainwashed. It's not possible that my opinion has been created from actually having had any experience playing live service games?

Yes there are loads of single player games that have failed. How many of these are from Sony?

Remember though, there's a lot more single player games released than live service games every year.

Astro Bot didn't sell? It had sold 1.5 million copies in November.

Re: Lists of Sony’s Cancelled Live Service PS5 Games Paint a Worrying Picture

@YoureTooSlowBro Would love to see what Sony could make or buy with the money it's made from their live service venture so far. People keep saying they just need 1 hit. How many live service hits has there been? Fortnite, rocket league and Apex? How many have failed? Regarding the single player games. They could make the big budget games but also could make a lot more smaller scale games like Astro Bot.

Re: Reaction: Sony's Live Service Push Has Been a Disaster of Utterly Insane Proportions

Nexozi

Wasted soo much time, money and effort for nothing. Said years ago they should have gone for ubisoft instead of bungie. At least with ubisoft they would have gotten a pile of single player IPs as well as the live service experience that ubi have. Hopefully there is something they can salvage from what they were working on. Like story ideas and game assets to then maybe they could use them to quickly fire out a few short single player game or 2. Would fill up some gaps until they get working on their next projects. Would be interesting to see how their live service game was going to work when set in the GOW universe. Hopefully all other live service projects are cancelled other than what bungie are working on.

Re: Your 2024 PlayStation Wrap-Up Will Be Available Starting Next Week

@OldGamer999 Started doing the MS reward points again with the news that COD was going to be on GPU from day one. Mostly been playing Forza Motorsport. Its far better than it was when it first released. Thought GT7 is better. Though have played some random games as well to get the achievements for the monthly 1000 MS reward points.
