    Discussion The Doomers and Gloomers, Sony is dying thread.

    PS5's only seen price increases over the course of the gen, unless to do sales promos in markets where the higher price might be causing sales to lag. If the trend continues, I think PS6 will face a very real situation where more casual & mainstream gamers decide that cheaper PC alternatives...

    Discussion Pearl Abyss: We were offered an exclusive contract for Crimson Desert by Sony but refused

    I wouldn't say SIE's own software sales are collapsing; they're still quite strong in general outside of complete flops like Concord. But total software sales among all games on the platform...well those are still strong in America, pretty well in UK and parts of Europe, likely the same as ever...

    Discussion Pearl Abyss: We were offered an exclusive contract for Crimson Desert by Sony but refused

    Well seeing how SIE are treating their own IP going forward when it comes to exclusivity it shouldn't be surprising that more 3P will turn down timed exclusivity deals from them that exclude other platforms, even Xbox. If the thought in SIE's multiplatform strategy is to maximize profit...

    Discussion Tom Warren thinks PC ports of PS5 exclusives will release a lot faster after Spider-Man 2

    Seeing as how so many Xbox shills or Xbox-centric influencers seem to be transforming into talking mouths for the PlayStation brand, and assuming there's even some small bit of collusive duopolistic cooperation in work between Microsoft & Sony/SIE...and of course just going off trends we've been...

    News PlayStation & Insomniac see backlash following SM2 PC port announcement

    'Member when Sony and bean counter fanboys said the PC ports would lead to more games? I 'member. Well the DLC got cancelled and potentially the Venom spinoff too. Where are the "more games"?

    PC Spider-Man 2 Announced for PC

    As a games publisher? No. As a gaming console? At very least you aren't getting another traditional console either in form factor or business model. In what ways are Xbox better than PlayStation or Nintendo, or Valve for that matter, as a gaming platform OR a publisher that doesn't involve...

    News Black Myth: Wukong has been rated for Xbox Series by ESRB

    Nothing was stopping Xbox owners from getting the game on Steam or PS5, since they likely already have a PC or PS5 (or both). So in theory, this isn't opening the game up to more people. Porting it to iOS and Android, or Nintendo Switch, would actually be giving more players a a chance to...

    News Insomniac confirms no DLC for Spider Man 2

    So there's even precedent from within SIE on this! Someone's gonna chime in and say "That's a different studio.". To which I'd say: well shouldn't SIE have standardized messaging between their own studios when it comes to this type of stuff?

    PC Spider-Man 2 Announced for PC

    Yep, corporate politics. That's what it was all about. Looking back I feel it was part of a larger initiative by Microsoft to pacify a rival in a market they wanted growth in (gaming), but also to shore up smaller companies (relative to them) against Google, Apple & Tencent. I didn't think...

    PC Spider-Man 2 Announced for PC

    SIE isn't. Stop repeating this lie, it is VERY EASY to look up who SIE uses servers from and it's not Azure. It's AWS. Also this idea that them buying things from each other means they aren't or shouldn't be competitors in a market where competition benefits customers is dumb. SCEA bought...

    PC Spider-Man 2 Announced for PC

    Good. They deserve every bit of criticism at this point. But since they're afraid of interacting with their own community, they'll just pretend there's no criticism. Also, something no one brings up is if SIE start making their timed exclusivity windows for their own games shorter to say, 6...

    Discussion The AA Problem: Gamers don't want to buy AA games

    "Gamers don't want to buy AA games" -Kena: Bridge of Spirits -Sifu -Stray -Black Myth Wukong (yes this is a AA game in terms of budget) -Astro Bot (high-end AA) Your idea around AA is outdated. Clearly, we see multiple instances where gamers will buy AA games if they are seen as worth buying...

    Bro he was alive during PS1 & 2 🤣 but he we probably too young for them. Maybe could've gotten a PS1 as a young kid but that's about it.

    PC Spider-Man 2 Announced for PC

    "PS4 level of investments" could mean a multitude of things, because not all of Nintendo's games are at BOTW scale. As for Metroid 4 taking a whole gen, that is not due to complexity of the game itself. It's because it's Metroid; Nintendo has ALWAYS been slow to iterate on Metroid because it...

    News Insomniac confirms no DLC for Spider Man 2

    If that was the case...why couldn't they have announced that today? Why leave us in the dark guessing "what if what if?", when they came out with their chest to announce a PC version for SM2? Occam's Razor says, the simplest answer is usually the correct one. That answer here is: the DLC is...

    News Sony will increase the PS5 price in South Korea for the second time

    What bigger things are they doing, exactly? I'm talking specifically games, here. Oh more super-safe sequels? More remasters for games that still play and run perfectly fine? More GAAS when they couldn't build upon Helldivers 2 successfully because suits made stupid decisions at its peak...

    PC Spider-Man 2 Announced for PC

    They've been resorting to rampant sales promos across Europe for more or less the whole year to keep numbers from dropping any further than they have. That's not the best sign of a healthy platform. Yet we will still have people saying that what's happened in Japan is an anomaly and can't...

    PC Spider-Man 2 Announced for PC

    I'm ready to predict that Death Stranding 2 might end up being the Day 1 PC release since it's not an internal 1P project (even though SIE own the IP), being made by a 3P (Kojima Productions). It's the safest Day 1 release of a big 1P AAA they can do, theoretically speaking. And with that in...
