    News Team Asobi win Golden Joystick Studio of the Year, while Wukong wins GOTY

    This is bullshit. So it's okay for Yanks to diddle voting but when China does it, it's wrong. In a few weeks you'll see a non standalone dlc win game of the year which is way worse to the general public.

    Discussion Retail Pre-Orders For 'Indiana Jones And The Great Circle' Over 86% Worse Than 'Dragon Age: The Veilguard'

    Hopefully the developers only concentrate on what worked on the trilogy. The others...hopefully not

    Discussion Retail Pre-Orders For 'Indiana Jones And The Great Circle' Over 86% Worse Than 'Dragon Age: The Veilguard'

    Considering the game is quote unquote free on Gamepass and there are more digital only series s than disc consoles and Veilguard is multiplatform from Day 1, the stat means nothing.

    Discussion Reuters: Sony in talks to buy media powerhouse behind 'Elden Ring', sources say

    I'm not a fan of this. Unless a third party looks to be going tits up or it is a developer who has almost an exclusive relationship with a playform holder, I'm not delighted with consolidation. It sucked when Xbox did it and it sucks now. I'm not well versed on the manga market so I can't...

    News Capcom FY25 First Half Unit Sales By Hardware: PC 54% / PS+Switch+Xbox 46%

    It really shows the Gamepass effect using proper figures. Since 2017, Capcom sales have tanked like fuck on Xbox. Wild when you think post 2017 is a golden era for Capcom.

    Discussion Phil spencer: Not done with acquisitions.

    They had a Japanese studio and fucking dismantled it. They also kept saying they need a Japanese studio while they fucking had one. Don't fuck up Japan please MS. Anyone who loves games needs the likes of SE, Capcom, Sega & Konami to remain independent

    Playstation Lego Horizon Adventures | Review Thread

    Now the waiting game until the next lego game and see if the same reviewers give higher scores for the same type of games. Complaining that Lego games are simple is like complaining that grass is green. I have a shit ton of older lego to go at so I'll be passing. I'd still be passing if it was a...

    News Spanish dev studio Tequila Works files for bankrupcy

    Rime has nice gameplay with an emotionally tough ending. I'd highly recommend it.

    Playstation Lack of PS5 Pro shortages means some scalpers are re-selling at a loss

    The PS4 Pro sold better at launch than the PS5 Pro? According to Sony, despite the higher price the PS5 Pro is selling better than the PS4 Pro at launch. Yet despite that evidence you think the PS4 Pro performed better by selling less and with a cheaper price tag? I cannot sanction such...

    Playstation Lack of PS5 Pro shortages means some scalpers are re-selling at a loss

    Are you saying if the PS5 Pro was a success, the resale value would be the same price as new? Why would anyone sane buy a PS5 or anything for the same price you could buy in the store? In the store you have a warranty. The reason used PS5 Pros are cheaper is you can buy the fucking thing new in...

    Playstation Lack of PS5 Pro shortages means some scalpers are re-selling at a loss

    Ask any Irish poster here to answer the following two questions: What is the most popular store in Ireland for new Playstation consoles & accessories? Can you buy from Playstation Direct and ship to Ireland? I'm sorry that logic and common sense are out of reach for you. Carry on with the...

    Playstation Lack of PS5 Pro shortages means some scalpers are re-selling at a loss

    Yes, I asked Sony to create an online store to sell playstations and accessories in Europe and specifically keep Irish customers out so years later I can embarrass an idiot on a gaming forum over how VAT works. Very convenient.

    Discussion Trump’s Proposed Tariffs Will Hit Gamers Hard (40% raise e.g. $1000 PS5 Pro)

    The funniest thing to hear is the only ones who don't understand tariffs are anti-Trump? That's the same bullshit statement if you plugged in another politician's name. What was posted was genuinely one of those "tell people I'm a fucking idiot without using those words" It's pathetic wankerish...

    Playstation Lack of PS5 Pro shortages means some scalpers are re-selling at a loss

    The Sony Direct Store doesn't sell to Ireland, genius. That's why I used stores in Ireland to make a comparison using Irish figures. Why would I use comparisons outside my own country that won't ship to my country?

    Playstation Lack of PS5 Pro shortages means some scalpers are re-selling at a loss

    Missed the whole post and cherry picks. How much more is the basic controller? Over the lifecycle of owning the PS5 Pro, a disc drive and buying controllers, how do they balance out? Are you buying more than one disc drive and only 1 controller in your lifetime?

    News [Hiroki Totoki] PS5 Pro's pre-orders are "slightly stronger" than PS4 Pro during the same period

    It actually is. That's how the English language works. It's ambiguous and also true. If it sold less or the exact same amount as the PS4 Pro for the same period then he can't say it. if the PS5 Pro sold loads more, then he is an idiot to understate the demand compared to the PS4 Pro at the time.

    Discussion Trump’s Proposed Tariffs Will Hit Gamers Hard (40% raise e.g. $1000 PS5 Pro)

    Politics is not allowed but it is when I agree with it. Either drop the politics or all all politics. The halfway house is a crock of shit. I'm actually shocked how many people don't understand how taxes work at all, or the reasoning behind them. Edit: I agree with you. It will be a burning...
