Re: Opinion: The Euphoric Reaction to PS6's Rumoured Delay Really Confuses Me

I bought a PS5 as soon as I could get my hands on one, I've been around since the original NES, this cycle is the longest that Sony cross supported the previous generation (PS4), to the point where it's fairly recent that they've stopped.

I understand if there is money to be paid, keep doing it. I also think it's hindered this generation of games.

As a consumer, I'm not going to rush out to spend $700 on a PS6 after seeing recent history.

Re: PS Plus Looks Better Than Ever After New Xbox Game Pass Price Rises

@Jey887 that is where I am now. I realized I barely play online, so when PS Plus subscription ended, I didn't bother to renew, it's been over a year.

Games drop in price fast, game fly has good sales too even on fairly new games, I just got AC Shadows with the DLC expansion code included for $30 after shipping.

$70 games is a big problem. A game has to be something that I can't live without to want to buy it when it releases. A lot of that is I have zero interest in online or multiplayer games.

I know that not only will there be fixed, update, modes added (like new game plus), more often the not a game will go on sale after a few months.

$30 for Silent Hill 2 remake
$20 for RE4
$30 Alan Wake 2

I paid $80 for 3 amazing games by just waiting a few months after each was released.

Tony Hawk 3&4 is already $35 (was $50) and it's a few weeks old. Almost crazy to buy a game when it releases.

This is where I think intead of new entries, release an update, charge something for it and keep the game alive.

Is this game that different then part 6? I look at Cities, a game that ended up in such a good place, and the disaster that Part 2 was, other then revenue was the game needed?

Of course I understand revenue is very important, but sometimes a company has to pivot and create new streams rather then release a sequel.

I played 2 and 3 way after they came out, in fact, just finished 3 about 3 months ago, only paid $10 for it and it included everything.

Enjoyed them, but they aren't must play, no interest in online or co op, so I'll play it a year or two down the road
