Re: Feature: Our PlayStation Showcase Predictions

I'd love to hear some SM2 news, not necessarily see the game in action. Like I said in another article, I wanna wait until I'm playing. I don't see the appeal of watching gameplay given we've already had the original and MM.

I'd love some Factions news aswell as maybe a little Wolverine tease. Aslong as there's a good chunk of stuff though, I likely won't be disappointed. I'm not a MGS fan and don't play many Japanese games so the less of that, the better (IMO)

Re: Soapbox: I No Longer Think Subscriptions Like PS Plus, Xbox Game Pass Are the Future of Gaming

Definitely not the future. It's been said all along they aren't cost effective. It's why you see Netflix cancelling a chunk of their shows after a single season. The hidden costs add up. It's the same for Gamepass and PS+.

Microsoft can afford to throw money at something like GP. It's literally all they have this gen. At least until they release some actual first party titles.

Sony on the other hand can't maintain it without the subs continuing to come in and rise up the numbers. They were right to keep first party titles off it. They've played a blinder with Forbidden West. Had it's time as a proper release then it's been put on plus in time for it's DLC. I think that's gonna be where Sony head with plus in the future if it sticks around.

I'm just interested in whether or not MS keep their word and have COD on other systems for those 10 years. If they don't honour it then it's clear Sony was right all along to be sceptical. Sony will still have the 1st party titles regardless of who/what MS buy. It's a real shame they can't produce a decent 1st party title of their own. Would really benefit the industry as a whole.
