Would love it to be Drive Club! (fyi not looking for Evolution bashing please) I just really want a good racing game right now. Also I would love for a non indie game, with Playstation nearing the 2 year mark and as much as I love the indies! I do, The side scrolling platformers is what is defining Playstation Plus at this point.
@BLPs The issue when moving from next gen to last gen there will always be compromise. Bungie did mention trying to push the limits with last Gen so they may have overdid it, and like @ShogunRok said they're good when it comes to the PS4. Guess they just made a bad decision with this last gen/PS3.
@BLPs I would think if they considered removing a menu of all things. This was the best option with the least compromise. Probably gonna get worse with the bigger updates.
If I had make a smart assumption it seems like the game being push back a year and the terrible launch plus the Content given away really killed their bottom line. Being a first party studio still means you have a budget, that is very finite, so it's really sad for those affected after putting much labor and time into Drive Club and to have to go through the PR turmoil only to end up unemployed. My heart truly does go out to them.
I just wanted to point out that this announcement isn't much of a suprise if we notice what Kojima said during one of the MGS videos pushsquare posted here a couple weeks back @_get2sammyb Here mentions the same thing in a very matter of fact tone of voice.
So resembling the much of the drama between Activision and Bungie regarding Destiny, this tale between Kojima and Konomi is very familiar and could have been long coming of course.
@JaxonH I would disagree with that statement of lot's of good games being out there. Owning a PS4 were still waiting for any true heavy hitting games. and MGS + Kojima is the reason were all even commenting on this article right now you def should check out some of the older MGS games, at least.
I agree with the pricing. The pricing doesn't seem to hit the sweet spot to channel value. I think a little cheaper would make this a good value.
Maybe even some custom setups based on pricing, e.g. 50 = custom 30 channels/60 = custom 40 channels, etc. the 50$ plus the channels available just seem to high.
I would like them to fix the problem with device input and device output. currently you can't control them. In the past (PS3) you could. I don't have Astro or turtle beach money and I want good sound so I need that feature.
Also The ability to power down completely light bar, touch pad, headphone jack. The battery life wouldn't be a problem anymore.
@BAMozzy Agree, I'm not convinced either. Personally seems like the minuses outway the pluses for me. I'm sure their working out how to sell it to people though.
@PoNY_LTD The milking continues is all I can say. people pay a few months at a time for what Destiny should have been before it got ripped apart. When people stop paying Bungie learns the hard way otherwise they don't.

@AyeHaley You're not missing much. My friends play it all the time in party chats and they just rage and complain about the loot. save yourself the agony.
@ShogunRok It also seems like we should almost come to expect server strain. Sony has a generic set of problems and answers. They're definitely at risk of falling out of touch with there customers, I can speak for myself at least. This ship needs to be tightened.
@thedevilsjester based on pushsquare articles I wish I could find again, it's way more than 25%. and even if he doesn't feel that way I know many do online when they have time too.
@thedevilsjester Because him like others and I know for myself play almost exclusively online. Sony has been pushing it with PSN and all these multiplayer features in games.
And people like it as well. To each his/her own preference.
Free in the future is the only way to make it right IMO. I only remember hearing about this game and being excited over 2 years ago since I love racing games lol.
Same with Deep down but thats already free. The delays sigh.

YES! YES! also.. YES! Treyarch zombies coming thru!! Activision now please don't mess this up like you did making Exo's a paid DLC.
The 6 months Zombie countdown has begun, Treyarch is nothing short of masterful with Zombies, looking forward to this.
Re: Talking Point: What One Game Do You Always Come Back To?

Re: Sony, Why the Heck Have You Moved the PS4's PlayStation Store Icon?
@get2sammyb I don't feel angry but I agree with everything you wrote. Seems like Sony if is trying by all means to oversell itself.
And that 15 app area needs a hard hard fixing! It's so disorganized!

Re: You've Only Got a Year Left to Play PS2 MMO Final Fantasy XI
