@trev666 i don’t think its solely Square problem as thats just a partnership. Most western devs need to look at why their products cost so much and efficiency issues compared the East. Plus i imagine there are a ton of people in western companies (not gaming specific) where u have a ton a people who really dont do much and drive up the cost
How many games did they have in development there at once? Always seemed like they were all over the place from a time and resourcement commitment standpoint
All this comment does is plant doubt in this game. Also probably just confirms preorders are very low and they want sympathy preorders. It was on my list for a deep sale price.
Interesting month with alone in the Dark and as a group that has continued to mess around w 3v3 in nhl for 100 hours, i will take nba 2k to mess with friends online.
Always funny that a company like bungie who prides themselves on being so progressive are actually one of the most toxic and unethical in the business. Not crazy to believe just funny
PS first party studios are cooked for this gen with very few of note coming. Luckily they have the dominant hardware getting 30% rips on everything otherwise many of the teams more would have been shuttered or more heavily gutted
I had every opportunity to play on my xbox, still not interested lol. My interest is mostly centered around the OG and 360 games stuck just on xbox going everywhere. #FreeMistwalker
But when you also make games that are off putting to players, less likely they are buy it and forget about it. Seems to be Sony’s future 1st party games
They can keep making them. I and many others who have bought their games just will no longer do so. Their first party studio revenues will wither and they will have to do layoffs and closures and articles will be asking why this is happening
God i love the jrpg remasters already but, my love is the highest for the PS2 era of games for design and art style. Square, Capcom, Konami, Sega et All. I will have an open preorder for thise
Lol all the people still hyping up Jade Raymond. And again she leaves before the game comes out. How many times will the industry hire her? Shes been putting nothing put since AC1
@LogicStrikesAgain i mean yeah i see that argument, but i think the question is only valid if xbox leadership was running the show. Heads of microsoft like the rest of microsoft are software companies going everywhere where xbox was the sole hardware lock down the software piece. Now that theres been more investment and constant expenses from xbox, microsoft is much more involved and they care much less about hardware than they do software performanc
@LogicStrikesAgain the 180 would be challenging at this point. Sales are well behind the xbox one, and with all the games being ported, soon all will be day and date, more consumers will just buy the PS which has everything as well as established libraries. Add in their current moment with tariffs where sony might have been able to build up quite a bit of stock in advance to maintain pricing, xbox is substantially more costly hardware wise. It’d be a long uphill battle just to regain what their losing from the last year or 2 let alone generation
Bring the Ps3 collections natively. Also they need to up the quality for premium. Often 2 a month, disney license games no one wants, games without trophies etc
Awesome, looks like they integrated better this time from the screen shots rather than the overlapping JPEGS like before.
Now also just give us our PS4 Themes back

Re: Very Fittingly, Expedition 33 Has Sold 3.3 Million Copies in 33 Days
Interesting that when a company actually sells copies they make note of it instead of total players.
Also take note bigger pubs, if you make a great game and characters you will sell copies. And turn-based games are possible to sell as well
