    Discussion Playstation has outplayed everyone in 2024 with hits like Astro Bot, exclusives like FF Rebirth and PS5 Pro along with the Anniversary!

    Said it before PS5 titles going to dominate the TGA that's going to be another reminder of the fraudery written by some the entire year. Media writes up as a weak year specifically for PS when neglecting what has come out let alone compared to other platforms

    Discussion Sony forecasted 18 million units for the fiscal year

    Moore's Law is Dead leaked that DLSS is confirmed for it but not mandatory. It's definitely going to launch with main-line Mario it has been over 7 years for that team since Odyssey. Whether it will be cross-gen will be interesting, cause the Pokemon leaks confirmed theirs will be, with Metroid...

    Nintendo Game Freak Massive Leak: Pokémon HG/SS and BW2 Source Code, Switch 2’s Codename, etc

    I've been through some and a lot of interesting (and wild) stuff, mostly looked at early gen stuff. Like concept art, UI's, ''meeting minutes'' etc. Worse for them is leaks of movie plots like for Detective Pikachu 2 and not announced films & series including upcoming Netflix live-adaptation...

    News Metaphor: ReFantazio shipments and digital sales top one million

    Find it funny that my initial comment is actually on topic with Atlus's new team but all you had to say was FF failed & Detroit Steam CCU numbers. Y'all look moronic.

    Discussion Sony forecasted 18 million units for the fiscal year

    So what's your angle. You are talking specific about Japan sales for the fiscal results, that needs to carry it to reach their goal? Strange. So sales are fake, and yes price hike is not going to do any favour. So you are saying Monster Hunter is not going to help sell PS5's or do well on the...

    News Metaphor: ReFantazio shipments and digital sales top one million

    You can't read either. Irony on speaking about skill issues. Goes totally against what you said and claimed.

    News Metaphor: ReFantazio shipments and digital sales top one million

    Ironic since the new CEO stated he is abandoning mid tier titles (which all flopped) and their HD games are moving to AAA status. Pretty contradictory on what you are saying. Regarding FF16, sales were in line with their expectations on the Q&A with investors. I also don't comprehend what Atlus...

    Discussion Sony forecasted 18 million units for the fiscal year

    No one as in Monster Hunter fans, Worlds was the first PS4 title to break 1 million in Japan. I expect the same to happen for the PS5 since they are currently outpacing the 4 there. MH is gonna help and boost the PS5 sales regardless for the last fiscal.

    News Metaphor: ReFantazio shipments and digital sales top one million

    What's the argument here. Square would be satisfied with 1 million on launch on all platforms?? Let's not kid ourselves here, just shows the different standards and responses. Katsura Hashino left the Persona team and delivered with the new studio's (Studio Zero) project so great news on that...

    Discussion On Amazon, the PS5 Pro is selling better than the Xbox

    At least you can find solace that in these lists the hard drive is selling within the top 50, looked up US it's currently ranked 42 there. And the Slim console with disc drive is at 12 (and none of the Xbox console is found in the top 100 lol) With the notion in mind that people stocked up on...

    Discussion European Sales September 2024 | PS5 240K, NSW 66K, XBS 26K

    Seen some worries about EU in general but these numbers shows Sony is not worried at all. They do discounts for a limited time frame several times a year instead of a permanent one (obvious strategy change from the PS hits days) If you think about it a Switch/Switch Oled is 290-330 and Series S...

    Discussion 343 renamed to Halo studios. First look at Halo in UE5 ( Project Foundry)

    343 ruined the brand so renaming makes sense. But UE5, easier to port.. just saying..

    Rumor (Grain of Salt) God of War Greek Saga Remastered in the works

    You would say Bluepoint since they have the base-line of the HD ports for PS3 but they might be doing Uncharted (remake) on the side if they would do one at all. I would'v said Nixxes would continue with Decima tour as in Killzone but guess for the $ not necessarily. GoW series elevated in...

    Review Silent Hill 2 Remake | Review Thread

    🥳 Well done, Konami is back very happy for it. Read somewhere that Bloober hinted in a Polish interview they are continuing working with them so remake of 1, 3 & Origins are no brainers. Hopefully it sells well, I will get it but will save it for the Pro.

    Discussion Another PC flop: Until Dawn underperforms on Steam with 2.5k CCU at launch. Hermen flees the country

    Great news, the more PC players reject it is not a bad thing in my book. The execs love metrics, so these are good metrics for day one releases and shorter gaps. I will say this is a title if picked up by the right streamer it can blow up with the new-gen, but that's very wishful thinking.

    News Tencent is looking to buy Ubisoft

    Sad to see cause Ubisoft was on fire 2 gens ago, now they are on fire as in burning down. They had the whole market of tactical shooters but chose to chase casuals and ruined the Tom Clancey name, they had Sam Fisher with 0 competition in the stealth market for over a decade but made him Jason...

    Leak Until Dawn 2 in development @ Firesprite

    Yeah should'v clarified a Sony incubated team or studio they invest in for the long term with new-gen talent. We've seen the results at Kojima studios that moved from the Fox Engine but that's more the exception than norm, but pretty swift shift while heavily supported by Guerilla. You either...

    Leak Until Dawn 2 in development @ Firesprite

    That's my gripe with the new studios, I expected some of them to utilise the Decima engine. You need to make a cut-off at a certain point with such a marvellous engine and that's what they should'v done with the new/start-up studios. Now with Firesprite doing UE5 you can't suddenly backtrack for...
