@Major_Player as for the lego game on the switch since most lego games sell well on switch it was hoping to capitalize on it but it was a complete flop on the switch sales wise that it is already being discounted to 40 bucks... as for most pc versions they come out much later then on console.
sony probably got cold feet after the bungie disaster from buying a company outright..or did not have enough cash for a outright purchase..looking like it was the anime and movie side was most interested in rather then the game side of the company..
wukong has a 81 metacritic score while the other candidates for game of the year all have a metacritic score in the 90's the fact that wukong was even nominated for game of the year is very suspicious to say the least.. fact is they did not even deserve to be even nominated let alone win game of the year!
@Oz_Who_Dat_Dare i disagree kadokawa wants sony to buy the company and remain on japanese hands and not let the chinese or koreans acquire the company.. also sony and fromsoft have a strong connection..
astro bot is the favorite in my eyes for game of the year because metaphor is to japanese to win the american that what it has become goty award.. highest score usually wins the award so wukong has no chance it is the lowest rated game to be a goty contender
sony and kadogawa would be a perfect match since they have worked together and sony owns 14% of fromsoft stock.. and 2% of kadogawa.. it is at this point just a matter of when it will happen..
@Shepherd_Tallon he wants the company to be bought by a japanese company and not some foreign company. plus it will be easier for sony to buy it then a foreign company.. due to japanese laws..
wukong 81 on metacritic the lowest rated game ever for the goty award it has zero chance of winning the award since the highest rated game ususally wins the award..
even for a remake of a game which has been released multiple times in japan over the decades it still shows dragon quest is king in japan.. these sales blew away my expectations..dragon quest 3 hd-2d for the switch even outsold super mario wonder it's first week in japan.
bloodborne was made by fromsoft but sony was the publisher of the game so they need each other to remaster or remake the game so if sony buys the company no more impediment..
last year switch console sales were down but last year sony had record console sales so it makes sense they would drop this year.. xbox console sales are irrelevant.. they are not competing in the console wars..
seems switch game sales is out of favor for most us gamers with the exception of the occasional big nintendo game..quite a difference compared to japan..
