Sony (and all the rest) can resell, rerelease, repackage, re-issue whatever they want, whenever they want, in any shape or form they wish. And charge whatever they want for for it. We either buy it or we don't. That's the only part of the process we are invloved in. Arguments and diatribes like the one around this just tell us more about the nature of people, and their entitlement, than it does about Sony. I'll buy this because I want it. If you don't want it don't buy it. It's not rocket science.
I bought on the premise that it would be more approachable than Demon Souls etc. Turned out that was a lie
I just found the game to be incredibly frustrating in a way that seemed to punish you for playing. Plus I couldn't get away from how bland and washed out the world was. It just had zero appeal from an exploring point of view, plus that would also end in death if you tried.
First game I have ever uninstalled on day one and sold on. Should be a trophy for that!
Going by that it's colourful, fun to play, and easy to get into. Which is the total opposite of reality. Which is that it's drab, frustrating, and painfully obtuse.
Would have been better if it was filmed in sepia, everyone died immediately at the start of each scene, and after hours of the same thing it turned out to be an advert for dog food.
I had it pre-orderd on the PC but it couldn't get passed the loading screen so I got a refund from Steam and bought it from the PS store instead.
So far its been alright, you can tell that the development started 7 years ago, some elements feel quite dated, and there are others that feel tacked on like they weren't very well thought out before hand.
But it can be a very pretty game at times, if at the cost of immersiveness, I mean its cool having full grown trees on the tops of the houses but where are their roots? And most enemies are cut n paste. It's weird killing so many identical twins, triplets etc :/
But it's dying light and I played the original to death (sic)), along with Dead Island (cool Sam B reference by the way!), and I get the same vibe from this so that's fine by me
I totally understand his sentiment here, even if it was a little confrontational. I always buy certain games, the ones that I want to give grass roots support to, at full price at launch. Though this means that I often end up sitting on that game until it's fixed, here' looking at you Cyberpunk ...
But I know that this is the sales figure that counts so if I ever have hope of a sequel, especially to new IP, then I have to take the hit. Speculate to accumulate!!
They're just profiteers, like you get whenever dishonorable people see a way of making an easy profit from others. I think they used to hang them at one time.
And the guy with the Tesco analogy is a moron. If he was going directly the supplier and buying stock like any other real business then yes it works. As it stands in that analogy he, and the other losers like him, are going to Tesco and buying all the milk to resell at stupidly inflated prices.
There is zero justification for their actions. The sooner it is illegal the better and any punitive action from that should be retroactively applied. All the individuals involved should be forced to pay back all the income they made and release any stock they still have back to the market for free. And then be fined or imprisoned for being *****.

Re: This Dramatic Thai Ad for Elden Ring Has to Be Seen to Be Believed
Cool advert but totally misrepresents the game.

Re: Tom Holland's Uncharted Movie Strikes Gold As Box Office Total Crosses $225 Million
Killzone TV Series told from both perspectives and a film adaptation of Resistance: FoM.
Those I would like to see.
