Sony is such a large tech company. Hardware-centric could mean less cameras, audio players, etc. And using existing ip in other forms of media just makes dollars and sense. Also, investing in other software companies, ie bandai namco.
Maybe more ps ips in movie/anime form. What if an "astro's amusement park" is in the works? Ps ip easter eggs everywhere in the form of astro bots(although, i guess that would be SUPER Hardware-centric😅).
Sony saw what forza horizon 5 made and thought, "helldivers 2 could do that..and maybe others." And it wouldn't cost that much to port a game over, right? A million copies, that's an easy $28-$40M(accounting for ms' 30% cut, and which edition players bought).
Returnal, demon's souls next? Imagine if this porting/money making actually got Sony to remake bloodborne.
This brings up that episode of top gear. BMW tried suing a Chinese company for blatantly ripping off their suv. A Chinese judge said, "i don't see the similarities" and dismissed the case. So why wouldn't a Chinese judge see and say the same thing?
Too many great games to focus on a "good" one, not too mention all the activities outside of gaming. Finite time and money means we have to be selective. A demo would've gone a long way.
If rumors that the nexbox can have steam/epic/gog storefronts, Sony might as well get their money before people play them through their existing pc libraries.
Spiderman was kind of meh. Story set pieces and the gameplay around them, awesome. The in-between not so much. Beat up these guys, quick time that car, another backpack.
This reminds me of futurama. Bender gets kicked out of a casino. Then threatens to make his own casino with hookers and slots. Sony kicks ms out of the casino(multiplatform deals). So ms makes it's own platform that has hookers and slots(steam and epic on xbox).
They could've made a killzone or resistance game for psvr2. They could've brought out the time crisis series. Imagine if cyberpunk 2077 had vr, ala resident evil 4, or rdr2. Seems like a lot of missed opportunities, that's all.
F2p. At least release it on ps+. Just to get the engagement numbers up, more eyes on it. Try and get that gamepass money and release it on there as well.
…this seriously makes me want to uninstall based on principle alone," aRadioKid responded.
But did they? And thats the problem. If the player base is the same then I guess they're just the vocal minority and it's not an issue. I dont play, just saiyan.
The devs/pubs need to calm down. If their game is great it will make many doubters look childish. But if the game is mediocre and just trying to ride the coattails of its/devs/pubs former pedigree then it deserves the hate.
Meanwhile, earning ms reward points. Redeeming them for game pass ultimate. Haven't paid for it in 3+ years. Also got a razer turret for half off with pts. Lifetime pts earned 718k pts. In its entirety stars gave me $10, and thats with me spending money.
Money is money. Why do anything that hurts income if no one says anything? It was removed because someone said something, and only because of that. Not because of some moral imperative to keep stolen property off the store. Sony/nin/xb/steam are collecting 30% off each purchase.
Anime style gacha games are the new soulslike. Surprised Sony hasn't jumped on this trend. Probably better chance of success than the hero/extraction shooters.
I can wait for a sale, or in borderlands case, for the ultimate edition with all the dlcs. They're just gonna hurt launch day numbers. New releases in general.
Gamestop offered $320 store credit for my base launch ps5 disc. Wanted to put it towards a ps5pro. Even with the trade-in I'm looking at upwards of $450+(ps5pro w/disc drive). Im good on the extra frames. And if gta vi is mainly dependant on the cpu, then the pro won't matter one lick.
It's a nice feature. Wish more game devs did cross progression. I play cyberpunk on the series x, pick up where i left off on the steam deck. Same with the witcher iii. Play on the series x, play it on the switch on the go.
Be nice considering my ps+ account is synced with my steam account, if it worked with GoTsushi and hd2. Play here, pick up there.

Re: Talking Point: Do Early Access Editions Go Too Far for Story Games Like Death Stranding 2?
Could you imagine booting up the first game on launch day and seeing all the bridges around because of early access people.
Re: Talking Point: Is It Officially Game Over for PSVR2?
They could've made a killzone or resistance game for psvr2. They could've brought out the time crisis series. Imagine if cyberpunk 2077 had vr, ala resident evil 4, or rdr2. Seems like a lot of missed opportunities, that's all.

Re: Inquiry Already Underway Over Lacklustre DOOM: The Dark Ages Opening
Usually how it works is:
Gamers: that game was awesome! We want more! A sequel!
*Game releases
Gamers: boooo! It's too similar!! Or not similar enough!!
Either way, gamers tend to not know what they want.
Re: Fairgames, One of Sony's Last Live-Service PS5 Games, Loses Studio Founder Amid Internal Worries
Plenty of blame to go around. Jade for not releasing anything, ever. Sony for not recognizing talent, lately.
