Re: 'It Should Be Free to Play Online Games': PS Plus Price Squeeze Taken to Task by PS5 Owners

nomither6

The intent of Plus back in the day when it first came out in the golden ps3 days was to be a premium service for people that wanted to sub to it, not because they had to, to play online

PC also has come a loooong way since & gives gamers so much more value than console. There’s no reason in 2026 to still condone this long running scam of charging people to use their own internet to access a games servers. it was a novelty back in the day with the original xbox & somewhat justified with the xbox360 because of how revolutionary its online was (& PSN hack reinforced it) - but now? no way

Re: PS5's New Weekly Player Tracker Has Revealed Some Brutal Truths for Fans

@4fold Yes, but this list is also skewed. If anything, this list says more about how lacking new successful multiplayer games are more so than anything being wrong for single players. The list is only accounting for concurrent players, you cannot play a single player for years and years like you can with a live service - they are essentially one and done experiences, and then people go back to whatever game with infinite replayability until another good single player comes out. i’d love to have seen this list when elden ring, Ragnarok, or spiderman 1/2 came out.

$ony is chasing live service because of the perpetual profits that no single player can provide

Re: PS5 Will Reveal the Most Played Games with Steam-Like Player Numbers

@OptimusPrime1 Dude, single player games are one and done - instead of taking note from most played concurrent games, it would make more sense to look at sales. single player games still sell very good; you’re not gonna see them on lists like this because multiplayer & live service games have longevity and infinite replayability - you can only play an “immersive game” for so long before you’ve seen it all and done it all. This list doesn’t paint the whole picture & these top games are mostly YEARS in the running - anyone will finish a single player by then no matter how bloated it is.

Also, those “immersive” game experiences you’re talking about, suck imo. Too much exposition and open world slop & not enough gameplay or variety; feels like more of a movie than a video game. they’re way too grounded these days 👎

Re: 'PS5 Is Just a Plastic Box if It Doesn't Have Content': Sony Explains Its 'Third-Party Focused' Ecosystem

$ony lost their way when they moved to Cali; granted the PS2 was “mostly” carried by third parties, $ony still delivered and were cooking (Birth of Classic God of war, birth of R&C, Sly cooper etc) & then they turnt up with the PS3 with banger new IPs and the early to mid PS4 era, they were killing it.

The Ps5 is a overpriced crap box coasting off what better playstations did 👎

Re: Bungie Was a $765 Million Thorn in Sony's Side in 2025

@BrokenByTheScream facts. reach was their swan song and peak, best halo ever; it had so much content & was so damn fun . the multiplayer was like going to an amusement park that had fun modes. the only flaw was that the maps could have been better, but they weren’t bad at all. the campaign was also pretty badass and made the covenant a real threat.

Re: Gamers Still Pick Consoles for Exclusives, New Data Finds

nomither6

They matter. it’s why 6th and 7th gen were so great. i miss having all three consoles in rotation. It also pains me to say that porting exclusives to PC is also a deterrent; i mean, im torn about it. I love it, but do you know how hard it is to play console if the game is on PC too ? 😭
