News Astro Bot haa sold 1.5 million units
It's above par compared to non-Nintendo 3D platformers or compared to previous internally developed Japan Studio games. It has been made by small team, pretty likely already is profitable. Kids friendly 3D platformers, particularly the very well reviewed ones, normally have legs and continue... -
Discussion Sony FY2024 Q2 Earnings Announcement | OT
The objective numbers say they keep improving and breaking records in most areas, that the percent of game sales continue migrating from physical to digital and that obviously as happens with all consoles after its peak year the hardware sales decline. Even in first party sales, despite de... -

Discussion Tom Henderson: LEGO: Horizon Adventures is "relatively short"; can be completed in ~6 hours
It's a GaaS, the average money spent per user there will be way higher. As I remember I got the Super Citizen upgrade plus 3 warbonds by paying money. -
Discussion Tom Henderson: LEGO: Horizon Adventures is "relatively short"; can be completed in ~6 hours
Because even if in the low side, it's still a AAA game. And in this case, Lego will also get part of the revenue. Like Returnal, Helldivers 2, Rift Apart, Elden Ring or Tears of the Kingdom, it will pretty likely have a staff of somewhere around between 1250-1750 people. As a reference, games... -
Discussion Tom Henderson: LEGO: Horizon Adventures is "relatively short"; can be completed in ~6 hours
I know, I want it. Btw, a real Uncharted 5. Not Uncharted ladies 2. Yes, and its sales pretty likely will be way lower than the Lego Horizon ones too. -
Discussion Tom Henderson: LEGO: Horizon Adventures is "relatively short"; can be completed in ~6 hours
Good, I prefer them to make more games of the size of a Morales / Rift Apart / Uncharted (not 4) game. Not all of them have to be huge open worlds, particularly these spionoffs. No, Sony's gaming division is making record revenue and profit. The previous Lego games were for previous... -
Nintendo Nintendo Q2 FY25: 2.62m Switch, Forecast revised down
If they achieve their current fiscal year forecast of 12.5M console, they'd be at 153.8M at the end of March 2025. I assume they'll keep Switch 1 in the the market for over a year after the Switch 2 release, which seems will be released in 2025. So I assume they'll continue selling Switch 1... -
Playstation Japans Studio’s alumni are MIA or putting out junk
You are talking as if Astro Bot or Stellar Blade wouldn't exist and as if they wouldn't have people who also worked in Gravity Rush 1 or 2. They are there, the shut down teams are the mobile studio and Firewalk/Concord instead. Some people from the Gravity Rush teams left or were fired, not... -
Discussion Square Enix will release games simultaneously on both Xbox and PlayStation going forward
This can't happen because the third part is signed as exclusive, like the previous two. -
Discussion PC Players of Monster Hunter Wilds Aren't Happy That It Can "Barely Run" On PC
Performance in PS5 is great, if they aren't happy with the performance on the PCMR they can always buy a PS5. -
Discussion Square Enix will release games simultaneously on both Xbox and PlayStation going forward
This may be you wish, but in the real world we know that minimum the third part of the FFVII remake will be exclusive too. Who knows what else Jimbo kept signed. Probably Kindom Hearts 4 and (this one maybe on Switch 2 too) Dragon Quest XII. -
Discussion Square Enix will release games simultaneously on both Xbox and PlayStation going forward
Why? FFVII Remake trilogy, FFXIV DLC, FFXVI, Forspoken, Babylon's Fall or Foamstars are PS console exclusive. Saga Frontier, Valkyrie Elysium, Neo: The World Ends With You, Actraiser Renaissance, Dungeon Encounters, Voice of Cards: The Isle Dragon Roars, Voice of Cards: The Forsaken Maiden... -
News Spanish indie dev Super Mega Team affected by the massive flood in Valencia
Yes. As I remember, around 450,000 people live in the affected cities and towns. And this happened at around 18:30-19:00 (the regional government didn't sent the alerts until over an hour AFTER that), when many people were going back from work, leaving the nearby big city Valencia to go to...- Yurinka

News Hideaki Nishino: PS5 continues 10 year generation cycle.
He obviously know them, since he's the one who greenlighted them and periodically reviews their progress. He's on charge of all the first party games on development, which are more than ever, around half of them are new IPs and the majority of them aren't GaaS. But as they mentioned prefer to... -
Playstation Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered | Review Thread
Let's see... I didn't complete the original game. Same happened with Forbidden West, when released I was busy with other stuff and never completed them. Let's hope this time I have more time and I'm in the mood of wanting to play a long game. -
News Hideaki Nishino: PS5 continues 10 year generation cycle.
Yes. There's almost exactly 7 years of difference between PS3 and PS4 launch and between PS4 and PS5 launch. If PS6 gets released 7 years later, it would be around November 2027. Considering that this generation the users are waiting more time to upgrade and that games take longer to be made, I...
