    Discussion How is Emulation supposed to be "Game Preservation"?

    Emulation is legitimate in all scenarios. Emulation is not breaking copyright. Breaking encryption is not breaking copyright. Copyright sucks anyway and should be opposed.

    Playstation If You Were in Charge Of Playstation, What would you do Differently?

    If you were doing that, you'd have to contend with all the times he talks about PS5 being more expensive to make and less profitable than the PS4.

    You're adding a lot of things he didnt say and gliding right past the things he clearly said.

    Playstation If You Were in Charge Of Playstation, What would you do Differently?

    I find this a selective and implausible read. You might say mischaracterizing even.

    Playstation If You Were in Charge Of Playstation, What would you do Differently?

    Excuse me? I've probably watched that Q&A statement 20 times. I painstakingly transcribed it verbatim. Later Sony put out an official transcript. It notably removes what he said about first party titles' main purpose 'in the past' was to popularize the console. But the language around...

    I don't want to overhype, Helldivers is more exciting. But if you liked Apex or even pre-Hero shooter, Battle Royale, live service blah blah multiplayer shooters you should try it. There's a throwback element I like.

    News Stellar Blade developer Shift Up to go public at projected valuation of $2.3 billion

    But Playstation is also playing an informal role too. Stellar Blade wouldn't be on my radar at all without their backing.

    Discussion Star Ocean The Second Story R Achieves Over 2,000 Steam Reviews; 96% Positive

    This is not my kind of game at all, but the demo is nice enough. I really like the mix of AA 3D graphics and pixel art. English voice acting is above average for this kind of JRPG. I tried it on Steam Deck and wasn't tempted to dig into the graphics settings, which I count as a win.

    Discussion How successful sales wise do you think Rise of Ronin will be?

    I think it will disappoint. It's like 2 weeks away and the marketing isn't reaching me. Looks like a great game tho.
