    Discussion Sony rumored to have 'locked down marketing rights' to GTA 6 on the PS5 and PS5 Pro

    It's not only Xbox, next year Switch 2 is gonna launch. If someone goes into the store/webshop and sees that bundle of PS5 (Pro) with GTA6 that's mighty attractive especially for casuals with the hype around it. My main thing is that Rockstar gets to optimise for the Pro and Sony perhaps sending...

    Playstation Breaking: Concord is shutting down on September 6, full refunds. (Update: Servers Now Closed)

    Valorant coming to console after the Beta, Overwatch putting a new character on the open playtest, Valve ''leaking'' Deadlock and revealing it officially before launch. They got jumped but after the Beta numbers & reception shouldn't have ever released the game. I've said it before probably to...

    Rumor Sony reportedly very confident with Jade Raymon's Fairgame$

    Yeah I am just going off of 150 staff x 100k for simple maths. And the first 2 years were co-funding as well as hero shooters in general being cheaper to produce. We don't know about acquisition costs and fluctuations in salaries etc, I am just a little less bullish on the figures people are...

    Rumor Sony reportedly very confident with Jade Raymon's Fairgame$

    The strangest thing in hindsight is the they ''revealed'' more about FairGame$ despite launching later and kept Concord being a hero shooter under wraps until close to launch. I assume we getting it in early 2025. Plenty of lessons to be learnt one of them is not make it a staple showing in a...

    Playstation Breaking: Concord is shutting down on September 6, full refunds. (Update: Servers Now Closed)

    At this point, shutdown the studio. It's too tainted, take the talent and move them under a different name. Why release the game when you shutdown a few weeks later. The California centric management from PS was the worst thing that has happened during PS4 hopefully this sends a very strong...

    News Rocksteady hit by layoffs after Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League underperforms

    Every time I read upon Rocksteady I am so glad Naughty Dog didn't turn into a live-service studio in hindsight. It's a shame they were done with Batman cause we definitely needed that last Batman Beyond game.. Saw Suicide Squad btw for 15 euros in a store, telling enough.

    Discussion Collin Moriarty says Sony will face consequences for purchasing studios without working with them previously

    MS was literally taking away major live-service revenues in their control and potentially taking away from the PS platform. No-one would'v predicted the shenanigans Jim Ryan pulled in court would turn out in them keeping CoD for at least a decade and result in Xbox basically going 3rd party, now...

    Things that has it going for it compared to Concord - Not in an oversaturated genre (Heist). - They have been upfront and honest what it is from the start - Design not as horrendous like Concord from trailer but obviously targeting younger gen. What can it learn from Concord: -Not reveal it...

    Discussion Billbil-kun - Here's the name, the design of the new PlayStation console with lots of other new details.

    Physical sales make up of 60% for 1st party from the Insomn leaks. Nintendo also has a strong ratio in favour of physical. It also depends on how present the data, if MTX accounts, yes that's more digital sales. Curious about PSSR and the RT improvements outside of the GPU increase, that are...

    News Concord Review Thread

    I could not play much over the weekend but over the past few days enjoying it getting rounds in but I have a feeling that I am only seeing half the maps. Not the 12 mentioned, even if I play other modes or is it just my RNG?

    Playstation Top Director at Bungie Was Fired After Misconduct Investigation - Bloomberg (Update: Marathon is cooked)

    Mechanics, fidelity and feel is imo great in Concord. Just oversaturated market with f2p offerings and questionable design choices. Even if the Bungie name has way more pull, you already got the genre covered on the live-service checklist. Yeah my hopes can go out the door for a gritty military...
