    Discussion What do you want to see from next generation consoles feature wise?

    https://icon-era.com/attachments/1715968596966-png.5058/ I'd be happy with this design, looks close enough to PS5 devkit for PS6 to continue to lineage. Disliking the PS5 pad shape, just throw as much of the same haptics/rumble tech into PS1-4 colored/shaped premium pads. Give us more choices...

    Playstation Sony president: PSN has 118M MAUs, half are on PS4. What does Sony need to do to bring them over to PS5?

    Exclusives PS5 games, stop PC ports and reduce PS4 crossgen. Add-to BC offerings. Make a real PS4/5 Portable to keep things in the Sony ecosystem. But let's go honest, it's a day late and a dollar short.

    Rumor Gematsu: The first new PS2 game coming to the PlayStation Plus Classics Catalog seems to be Star Wars: The Clone Wars

    You what? Is this true? I thought we had to wait whilst they build new emulators. If it's the same emulator they should have added so many more PS1/PS2 games since like 2014-odd

    Discussion What annoys you about gaming/gaming industry?

    ... And if I could at least watch media apps on it I'd appreciate it more as a workaround machine, but media apps don't work over remote play. It's a half product and I'm still pissed they've lost 10 odd years in the portable space like idiots.

    Discussion What annoys you about gaming/gaming industry?

    I'm STILL pissed off that child me didn't know the SEGA Nomad existed. I'm STILL pissed that PS Portal exists. I'm over the crude shape now, but the remote play only aspect is beyond insulting. DOA as Deck and Ally, and more are already here. And they had the other missing components there on...

    Xbox Microsoft sending people surveys about handheld consoles

    I'm just not sure what the XB handheld would offer over a ROG Ally as it is also windows based. I assume MS would pass-out the "Xbox mode" Windows OS amongst PC handheld developers?

    Xbox Microsoft's quest for short-term $$$ is doing long-term damage to Windows, Surface, Xbox, and beyond

    Oh don't get me even started on Microsoft's product failures. Says the Windows 8.1/Surface/Duo fan. As big as missed opportunities/timing/bad decision as Sony seems to be on the gaming side.

    News Despite Helldivers 2 success, Sony misses PC revenue target by about 20%

    Namely, be the main BC team! I'm not misremembering, am I, Nixxes have some porting pedigree, don't they? I'm sure they're the ones whom down-ported Rise Of The TR to Xbox360.

    News The Division Heartland has been cancelled

    What's wrong with the idea of a base game, and seasons upon seasons of content. Div2 NY Helicopter Ride DLC shows we aren't constrained by Div2 location/thematic structure. I do wish they'd return the Pulse to Div1 style though. Really helped the old peepers to see enemies better, that did. On...

    Discussion The Doom & Gloom posting is out of control

    Rather than Paramount & SE, I sorta want to see them go WBD & WB/NRS games. Buying all of WBD lock, stock and barrell, would net certain Film and TV show airing/streaming rights, for Sony to either sell off to highest bidder or fill our their BraviaCore (Sony Pictures Core now, I guess)...

    Discussion The Doom & Gloom posting is out of control

    Looking down the road on future releases/later-ports, weather they go to Nintendo Switch 2, Rog Ally 2, or Steam Deck 2, these devices have "portability, plus". Nintendo will have portability, plus their own exclusives, plus more 3P. Steam is portability plus the entire Steam store...

    Discussion Sony needs to heavly invest in backwards compatibility moving forward

    Yes but it's biased data. Not many would go highest PS+ Tier for BC games, especially not if that highest tier doesn't have loads of other extras to make it more attractive. I think if there was no 3rd tier and no division between game catalouge and classic catalouge, BC games would get...

    Discussion Helldivers 2 will require Steam players to sign in with PSN account, led to review bombing games & refunds. |UP| Gamers organizing to revert reviews.

    Let me play devil's advocate. Why can't Sony handle this shit at the OS/corporate level? Feed the publisher accounts into PS account?

    News THQ Nordic’s fourth annual digital showcase is coming in August

    One of those new triple companies for AA development should retain the THQ name, imo.

    Discussion Sony needs to heavly invest in backwards compatibility moving forward

    But that's a small sample size of overall playerbase vs PS. Sony ripped hardware and software BC out of later model PS3's and has been gunshy ever since. My opinion is that if they toggled the PS+ Tiers down into 1 or 2 Tiers only, more would use the BC on PS as it stands today. Even more if...

    Discussion Sony needs to heavly invest in backwards compatibility moving forward

    Drive by post to say that any data metrics Sony has to say BC doesn't sell are biased, it has so far poor selection and BC is stuffed onto the higher PS+ Tier with little else of interest to most in said Tier.
