@UltimateOtaku91 Forget to mention you as well. All these idiots I mean people always think there is some conspiracy behind this.. or are talking about damage control. Guys… shipping prices have exploded due to oil and gas shortages 🥶
@GeeEssEff @Northern_munkey Me and Northern Munkey are having a blast as I would say there is no better shooter on the market right now. For those that wish this game to fail and bungie to close. Wait for the following singleplayer studio to close down as well such as Housemarque as only God of War, TLoU, GoT/ GoY and Spider-Man sold viable numbers for a singleplayer game (I will buy Saros but don’t expect it to be profitable).
I love this game as many already have seen. The shooting is in my opinion the best in the market right now. I presume the naysayers have not played this game because it’s addictive.
EDIT: Why are people now complaining again. First Pushsquare did not publish a review… Now they somewhat did with a review in progress (very normal btw see IGN) and now everyone is still blasting it because the reviewer likes it…
@rachetmarvel Dude, use google and you will find sufficient evidence.. it’s not that hard but Sony is shutting their pc ports down because you guys don’t buy them or pirate stuff.
PC pirating is estimated to have cost $1.2 billion in 2025. If you read the article there is also several millions lost in anti piracy software, legal fees etc. Console gaming has less cheating / piracy due to their closed nature.
@Max_the_German On this we agree. Overall their strategy has been abysmal (concord, all the cancelled projects such as last of us factions, fairgame$, etc.)
Good, these PC players don’t deserve anything as most (although they lie about it) pirate a lot of games. Moreover a lot of cheating in online games is mostly done by the pc masterrace crowd
@Max_the_German The point I am trying to make is that many are hating this game because it’s multiplayer. Most players only want singleplayer from Sony but don’t buy the games.
Why even buy skins? I don’t understand the interest in any skins (same for other games). The only skin I like is the Santa suit for Astrobot (and that was free)
The game is fantastic as it is! Difficulty? My vault is overflowing and I consider myself a noob (just level 9). On my friends list 9 people are playing it constantly so steam does not show the complete picture. Also most of the time I am offline because I have three kids or are working during the day. I think many older gamers have the same issues and will only be online during the evening.
@wildcat_kickz @RedRiot193 He is mad about ‘concord 3’ and consumer rights. As I said before fake outrage but these people love to be negative. Don’t worry redriot I am playing that game tonight.
@LogicStrikesAgain This! Their hands-on already gave a preview.
EDIT: The first thing that happened is that the naysayers immediately pointed out the writer was positive about concord. So if there was a review and it was positive there would be outrage
@GeeEssEff @Juanalf Pushsquare can always do a review in progress. My point to most people in the comment section is that they don’t care about the score. It’s just outrage for the sake of it. I think GeeEssEff summarised it perfectly: “ They simply want a score so they can either berate Push Square for being biased if high or "Hooray Live Service flops again" if low”.
Edit; Bungie asked it politely as push also commented it’s not mandatory. It’s their choice (see comment of Sammy).
@RedRiot193 Again why do you care? I found this comment from you about Marathon: “ Showing love for a game that'll die in 2 months. Congrats on concord 3”. Keep the fake outrage for yourself .
@RedRiot193 Why do you even care about the review score? Even if Push gave it a 9 you would do any mental gymnastics to say it’s dog *****.
EDIT: This comment applies to the majority of the commenters. You do not like Marathon from the start so a review score won’t change your mind. Most people on here are just jumping on this bandwagon of hate to be cool (if singleplayers are your thing buy them in higher volume…. Otherwise sony would not need that GaaS money.. Talk is cheap though)
@Northern_munkey Well we did get ambushed for three times in a row after we were softened up a lot by the AI… Luckily I am better in this than ARC🥲
I don’t understand people because the shooting is some of the best in the market right now . The AI flanks us most of the time and the graphics are awesome. This generation has really lost their mind because when I was young I would be all over this with my friends
@BentIeyma This. I always wonder where these people are coming from. I propose to those people to play their type of game (like supporting bluepoint with not purchasing Demon’s souls) instead of commenting for the 20th time they dislike something.
@Flaming_Kaiser Indeed same with Japan studio. When people are this focused on singleplayer experiences they need to buy games. But most are a lot of talk
@PuppetMaster No, this guy gets paid per negative comment. Steam figures averages around 50k (70k last night now dipped this morning to 32k but is now again around 40k. I observed the same trend yesterday that during the day it increases to 60-70k). I think PS figures should be comparable or higher (because it’s a Sony studio… although a lot of folks think Sony should only focus on single player and therefore refuse to play this).. It’s never around concord level as the max players during beta was 4K for that game

Re: Marathon (PS5) - Bungie's Extraction Shooter Is Truly Brilliant, and It Only Gets Better
This is one of my favourite games of the generation. It’s shared with Gran Turismo 7 and Astrobot.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 625
When I am online I am playing some Marathon with some battlefield 6 on the side. With the new PSSR 2.0 both look a lot more crisp!!!

@SuperSilverback Will do! Sorry for the late response but notifications are not working…
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 624
Marathon mainly with some battlefield 6 on the side
EDIT: even John from digital foundry seem to enjoy marathon (singleplayer guy) https://youtu.be/XhApJPSMWuc?is=EZdzrN1QYvc4gWIF
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 624

@Globo Because I have added people who are consistently talking about concord 3 for example.

Re: Study Claims Sony's PS5 Games Are Leaving Big PC Sales on the Table
@rachetmarvel That is such a non argument. if I want a game such a Forza and it releases later than the Xbox version I would buy it if I’m interested.
Re: Study Claims Sony's PS5 Games Are Leaving Big PC Sales on the Table

Re: Study Claims Sony's PS5 Games Are Leaving Big PC Sales on the Table
@Divergent95 This guy gets it! I really LOL about the anti consumer dur dur part
Re: 'We're Discussing Ways to Improve': Marathon Dev Tweaking Monetisation and Difficulty as FPS Fails to Blow Up
@Max_the_German You just explained why Sony is betting on Multiplayer games. There is just too much risk with only singleplayer crowd

@Max_the_German Why do you care so much? Have you already bought demons souls ?
Re: 'We're Discussing Ways to Improve': Marathon Dev Tweaking Monetisation and Difficulty as FPS Fails to Blow Up
@The_ghostmen korte vraag: bezit jij Marathon? Zo niet, zou ik je mening voor je houden.
Re: 'We're Discussing Ways to Improve': Marathon Dev Tweaking Monetisation and Difficulty as FPS Fails to Blow Up
Why even buy skins? I don’t understand the interest in any skins (same for other games). The only skin I like is the Santa suit for Astrobot (and that was free)

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 623
@KingPev Added, I’m also a noob so don’t worry and almost always online in the evenings
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 623
@KingPev Hi Pev, can I add you on PSN? (For marathon) 😁
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 623
Marathon mainly ♥️ with the boys (Northern munkey among others)
Re: Site News: Where's Our Marathon PS5 Review?
@GuttyYZ I will add you. Typically I can also only play in the evening (as a father of three )
Re: Site News: Where's Our Marathon PS5 Review?
@RedRiot193 Some people work 😅
Re: Site News: Where's Our Marathon PS5 Review?
@wildcat_kickz Valid point, just do a review in progress and finalise when the end game is available!

Re: Site News: Where's Our Marathon PS5 Review?
@trev666 This is complete *****. If you read the article it says:
” It’s important to underline that this is not a mandate or a requirement”
Moreover, typically pushsquare takes their time reviewing because we see this type of article (where is our review) pretty often.

Re: Sony Returns to PlayStation Exclusivity and Stops Single Player PC Ports, New Report Says
@Oram77 On this we agree 😁
Re: Marathon PS5 Is Out Here Turning Its Launch Trailer into a Music Video
I will be there in launch day!
Re: Hands On: Marathon Is Dense, Demanding, and Drop Dead Gorgeous
@PuppetMaster No, this guy gets paid per negative comment. Steam figures averages around 50k (70k last night now dipped this morning to 32k but is now again around 40k. I observed the same trend yesterday that during the day it increases to 60-70k). I think PS figures should be comparable or higher (because it’s a Sony studio… although a lot of folks think Sony should only focus on single player and therefore refuse to play this).. It’s never around concord level as the max players during beta was 4K for that game
Re: Hands On: Marathon Is Dense, Demanding, and Drop Dead Gorgeous
@Nnfyrbsnss Shame for you that player count is increasing again (now at around 41k on steam).
EDIT: >60k now
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 622
PS5:
I got the platinum for Spider-Man 2. Great game and scratches my collection everything on the map itch.
Singleplayer: restarted Kingdom Come Deliverance. This time investing sufficient time in the combat 😅
Multiplayer: Marathon mainly. As many already know I love the game (shooting is wonderful). On the side some battlefield 6.
