Re: European Union Likely to Pass Xbox's $69 Billion Buyout of Activision

@Rob_230 Nobody is wishing for Sony's demise except for Xbots, we are only hoping for a serious competition to Sony's legacy as they didn't take their competitor seriously in the previous gen. As long as the competitor is serious about increasing their overall share of the gaming market, Sony will be forced to act accordingly

Re: Idiots on the Internet Are Still Abusing Abby from The Last of Us 2's Face Model

@GreatAuk We are a Niche group. It's not about amplifying but this exact thing is happening everywhere, have you forgot what happens when a game gets delayed? or the numerous times directors and writers begged gamers to stop harassing employees and their families? Go back and read how many times did Cory Barlog plead gamers to stop with the death threats and harassment to staff

Re: MultiVersus Daily Peak Player Count Down 99% Since Launch

SamMR

Never been a fan of continuous multiplayer games as there are plenty of single player games to keep me busy during my free time. Though this game was fun, I found myself occasionally playing it with a couple of friends for like 3 months. Then I just lost interest in it and dropped it completely.

Re: Bobby Kotick Says Sony Is 'Trying to Sabotage' Microsoft's Activision Bid

SamMR

@Ravix Not ripping off existing contracts, but favoring Microsoft when it comes to exclusive content and marketing campaigns which Sony wants desperately, that's why they refuse to negotiate even if COD would still come to PlayStation for years to come, Sony wants to have the attractive overall package of content to be theirs.

Re: Actress Ella Balinska Has Seen Your PS5 Forspoken Memes, And She Ain't Fussed

@GreatAuk Hello, have you not seen gamers raging about gaming companies (EA , Ubisoft...etc) because they joined a group that pushes for diversity and inclusion in games?? take a look at Reddit and twitter to see what I mean. Plus how gamers reacted to tlou2 where some people automatically hated Abby for her design and Ellie for her sexuality.

Re: 'AAAA' Title The Callisto Protocol Reportedly Falls Short of Expected Sales Figures

SamMR

@BoldAndBrash This game is a unique situation, you have the constant comparison to Dead Space, the average reviews, the huge marketing campaign, the unbalanced combat, they honestly did it to themselves. Games like the Evil Within were way better than this in regards to story and gameplay and it cost a fraction of this. The only thing this game excel at is the amazing graphics and animations, the rest is just average.

Re: New AAA Studio Formed Out of Forza Horizon 5, EA Talent

SamMR

@SerJosh97 Gamepass is a clutter magnet. It's filled with unappealing games like Gears(5 games), Halo (6 games) and forza which take count on the 250 games they have. Their only strong point is the addition of day one titles like A Plague Tale and Highonlife

@InternetUser Starfield is still not an example of a game made after Microsoft's acquisition. Most games were already in-development when Microsoft got their hands on them. You can truly judge Microsoft's leadership when games are conceived and developed under Microsoft's management

Re: PS5 Soars in Japan After Sony Said Stock Issues Are Resolved

SamMR

@Green-Bandit I just don't understand why Sony is so desperate to remain the leader in every market there is. They are doing far better than Xbox overall, if they were competing with Xbox in a few markets that won't hurt them that much. PlayStation has an advantage that Xbox will never have which is the brand name.

Re: Days Gone Director Blames Woke Reviewers, Programmers for Critical Reception

SamMR

His frustration is understandable, a product that he worked tirelessly to make, gets s****** on by some reviewers for having a White protagonist of all things. I played the game and enjoyed it especially the hordes it was really fun. It's not a masterpiece in any way but the treatment it got from the so called game journalists is a shame, particularly when they drop point just because the lead is a white guy.
