The one positive about buying new games digital is the ability to share games. I’ll eventually get a physical copy of this game but I preordered digitally so my son can play on his ps5 too at the same time on his account. It’s like 2 copies of the game for one price, have been doing this since Destiny for day1 games. However, I do prefer physical copies overall.
@KundaliniRising333 @RobN IMO we don’t deserve games as good as Naughty Dog makes, I’ll be Druckman’s personal suck man to keep getting games from them.
@z0d15g0d I completely agree, Killzone 3 is the best FPS package of all time. I actually got the platinum in that one, couldn’t get into Shadowfall as much.
If you don’t like the price, you don’t have to buy it. It’s not actually milking if people are willing to keep buying it. This is a very wise business move because this is for all of the new fans they will make from the tv show. This will sell tons just like The Witcher 3 did. With all of that money, PlayStation can keep investing in new IP.
@BeerIsAwesome You can’t really count switch lite sales because it’s a handheld with no dock mode and PS5 is almost twice as expensive as the base switch. I own a switch but since I have gotten a PS5, I barely touch it. Breath of the Wild 2 got scared out of the year because Elden Ring is enchanting gamers elsewhere.
Sony should buy From Software and Capcom. There’s talk of Creative Assembly making a Monster Hunter clone exclusive for game pass so perhaps Microsoft knows the next Monster Hunter won’t be on Xbox.
I would rather Sony and Microsoft buy everything up instead of letting Net Ease, Tencent, Amazon, Facebook, and Google do it. With a From Software acquisition, Sony can leverage Elden Ring 2 in order for Microsoft to keep Elder Scrolls 6 on PlayStation. IMO Bethesda is overrated anyway.
They should revive Socom and maybe do it as an FPS. It was a bigger deal than Call of Duty back on ps2. If not Socom a new Killzone or Resistance would be great. Also focus on more Japanese studio acquisitions like From Software, Kojima, Gen Design, and Nihon Falcom. They should definitely consider acquiring Capcom, Sega and/or Square Enix.
This would have made more sense in 2013.Since then, Sony has exceeded just about every third party publisher in game quality. I really think it’s a desperate move, too little too late.

Re: Naughty Dog May Move On from The Last of Us Like It Did with Uncharted
Perhaps Neil will just use the story of part 3 for the show and the studio can just move onto a brand new ip.
Re: Naughty Dog May Move On from The Last of Us Like It Did with Uncharted
@RenanKJ Since 2013, they’ve done 3 new games, 2 remasters, and a remake to be fair.
Re: Bruce Straley Wasn't Credited in HBO's The Last of Us, Calls for Unionization
It’s funny that no one is from Bungie is coming out saying they should be credited in the Halo show. No one wants to be associated with that trash.
Re: New AAA Studio Formed Out of Forza Horizon 5, EA Talent
@InternetUser Starfield is going to be hot trash, I’d bet on it. People are going to apologize to Hello Games buy No Man’s Sky instead.

I’m in for the $70 beat saber composer’s cut.
Re: The Last Guardian, Shadow of the Colossus Legend Aiming for 2023 Announcement
@3Above They have a publisher in Epic games backing them so it’s highly unlikely that they will need crowdfunding.
Re: The Last Guardian, Shadow of the Colossus Legend Aiming for 2023 Announcement
Ueda and Ken Levine are the types of game creators that I get excited for. I also love Suda 51, Kojima, Swery 65 and Hidetaka Miyazaki.

Re: Game of the Year: Liam's Top 5 PS5, PS4 Games of 2022
I put over 100 hours into Elden Ring and I’m only about 15 hours into God of War but Ragnarok is my game of the year already.

Re: Sackboy: A Big Adventure Has Proven Very Unpopular on PC
This game would probably sell well on the Switch.

@Max_the_German they actually were years ago when he worked at Sony before Microsoft
Re: The Callisto Protocol's Boss Underfire for Appearing to Glorify 15 Hour Shifts
Schreier should just report the facts and stop policing the industry. If anybody at the studio doesn’t like it, then speak up and tell your boss.

Re: Digital Foundry Tech Review Shows Just How Far The Last of Us: Part I Has Come
I’ll take a remake from Naughty Dog every year over the trash being put out by Embracer Group.
Re: Poll: Did You Buy The Last of Us: Part I?
Hopefully, when I'm getting intimate with Neil this evening and I show him all of your negative comments, he reconsiders the price of the remake.
Re: Poll: Did You Buy The Last of Us: Part I?
@Mr_Gamecube that was silly because you could have sold it for a nice profit.
Re: Poll: Did You Buy The Last of Us: Part I?
@KundaliniRising333 @RobN IMO we don’t deserve games as good as Naughty Dog makes, I’ll be Druckman’s personal suck man to keep getting games from them.
Re: Poll: Did You Buy The Last of Us: Part I?
I ate ramen last night so today I’m going to buy another pack of ramen but a new flavor and eat again, lol. Shame on them for charging me again.

Rocket League deserves a spot on this list.
Re: Killzone Shadow Fall, Other Guerrilla Games Now Stripped of Online Play

Re: Microsoft Accuses Sony of Paying to Block Games from Xbox Game Pass
After reading this, I preordered The Last of Us Remake to ensure the dominance of the PlayStation brand in game distribution going forward.
Re: Press X for Trophies Is a Sad Indictment of PS5, PS4 Today
Sony should just have a trash section on psn, and a games worth playing section.
Re: We're Sure Fans Will Be Rational Over This The Last of Us PS5 Clip
Everybody mad at a $70 game but happy to drop $20 on a skin in a game that will go offline someday.

Re: Hideo Kojima Reportedly Developing a Horror Game Named Overdose
@IonMagi Then Certain Affinity is wasting their time.
Re: Hideo Kojima Reportedly Developing a Horror Game Named Overdose
@IonMagi Monster Hunter World 2 is probably a PS5/PC exclusive, that’s why Certain Affinity is making that game.
Re: Shenmue's Yu Suzuki Announces Space Harrier with Swans for Phones

Re: 'Multiple Sources' Said Sony Is Buying Square Enix, Allegedly
Sony should buy From Software and Capcom. There’s talk of Creative Assembly making a Monster Hunter clone exclusive for game pass so perhaps Microsoft knows the next Monster Hunter won’t be on Xbox.
Re: Microsoft Bigwig Implies PS5 Is Losing Marketshare to Xbox
Demand for PS5 isn’t slowing down and I see series X in stock for days at a time at some online retailers so I don’t think PlayStation needs to panic.
Re: PlayStation Boss Promises More Acquisitions Are Planned

Re: New and Existing Bungie Games Will Not Become PS5, PS4 Exclusives
Nintendo buys Ubisoft next. Then Sony buys From Software, Capcom and Epic. Microsoft will buy Valve.
Re: Poll: We Want You to Rate Your Favourite PS Vita Games

Re: Poll: Does Sony Need to Take Action After Microsoft's Activision Buyout?
They should revive Socom and maybe do it as an FPS. It was a bigger deal than Call of Duty back on ps2. If not Socom a new Killzone or Resistance would be great.
