On the flip side, there's anti-Playstation forums out there as well. Some here even frequent them. I can't speak for anyone else here, but I just want Playstation to keep getting the types of games I like, that's it.
Forspoken did well in all regions apparently.
- Thread starter thelastword
- Start date
I also find it funny that some could feel offended by my post when I didn't name anyone in particular. If you didn't bash Forspoken or associate it with Playstation due to its exclusivity or marketing, no need to be offended at what I said, unless you're feeling convicted. 
Now, back to the actual topic.
Now, back to the actual topic.

Well just like anything else in the world, there will always be anti X or anti Y that goes without saying. But if we are speaking strictly about Icon Era, no offense to @Bryank75 obviously - I commend him for starting his own thing. But I've told him before, there is a severe disbalance here between the blue vs green crowd.
It's near impossible to talk or say anything positive about Xbox. People are ultra fast to just shit on someone for enjoying something that they don't or for having a different opinion.
Fights always constantly start and it's sad because it makes the forum look bad. Some people are forced too use the ignore function to much because they keep getting dogpiled and attacked over a fucking video game or a plastic box. It's fucking childish, sad and pathetic.
A gaming forum should be an inclusive place where fans of gaming can discuss the hobby without being fearful of getting attacked Based of their platform or gsmes of chocie. Obviously, the bigger the forum gets the harder it is to keep everyone in check.
This is why forums like NeoGaf have a strict policy on fanboyism terms and ridiculous hot takes that just make no sense and are only being said to troll someone and get a rise out of someone. There are very few people here that are actually genuine with their opinions.
There are certain people here with very clear cut agendas that no matter what you say will find a way to smear you, talk back and refuse to admit fault or accept the fact that they're wrong about something. I won't be mentioning their names, but at this point it's reslly not thar hard to figure out.
And anyone looking at things realistically knew Microsoft getting into consoles would just be Microsoft acting like Microsoft and being a destructive, cancerous influence in the industry.

Good. We need Pro [insert gaming company] spaces. That way you can get a good idea of what the truth is. Negative Sony news on an Xbox website and Positive Sony news on a Sony website gives you two extremes. From there you can find the truth in the centre of it.
No.
It's healthy for a company to fail to come back stronger. It is evolution and survival of the fittest. I want Microsoft back to releasing whacky sega-esque games like they did on the OG Xbox and 360. However, they will never go back to that unless they fail and realise the direction they are going now isn't the right one. Have they done some things correctly? Sure, but 1 success in 10 failures is not acceptable and shouldn't be to any true gamer.
In no way shape or form is modern-day Microsoft a positive on the industry.
And every other site it is impossible to say anything negative about xbox. And I have numerous accounts on Gaf with a long list of posts as proof. I'm glad this is a pro Sony site, because it is the only one on the internet.
So you are, 100% ignoring the fact that I just told you that I prefer Xbox over Playstation? Will Steam give me the data for how enjoyable it was?
It isn't lmao, the console is selling more and more and the exclusives are coming. There are a lot of third parties coming. Spider man 2 is right there and so is FFXVI. can't see the problem here. You're just... wrong.
Adam, let me break this down to you: the only person that actively cares about Forspoken is you and only you.Forspoken is a Square Enix game, why are you associating it with Sony and them failing.
Relax lol
and I'm a Nintendo ambassador
It's all there, steam spy, aggregate review sites, you just need to be willing to come out of the warrior shell to see it.
Me leaving here won't make Forspoken a better game sadly
Understatement of the year, my friend.
Any other Sony or Nintendo game will obliterate any microsoft game when released, so who cares about Forspoken?
Both Spider man 2 and Tears of the Kingdom will destroy Starfield on sales and mindshare alike.
So, again, who cares about Forspoken?
Yes, it's a dud made in a shitty engine. Everyone knows that. Yet, it did better than expected even with all the negative press.
But the thing is: this dud is still remembered, whereas Hi Fi is forgotten.
Again: who cares about Forspoken?
As much as I am looking forward to FF 16, that's a third party game and is not a true exclusive. I am obviously talking about 1st party titles here, so don't even try to wiggle around lol. And I am def not wrong about them having horrible communication, because they don't communicate anything at all for the last few months. 30 minute State of Plays don't really cut it for me anymore. They're good fillers, but that's it. Where is the 1 year big show? They did it in 2020, and 2021 and then fucking stopped like idiots.
Yes, I will wiggle around it because it doesn't matter what you say, they're doing better and better by the day.
To be fair, you've been saying that 2 minutes after Hi-Fi rush got shadow dropped, so please understand if your word isn't taken as gospel here.
Apparently the multiple users coming to bat for it in this topic, where I mainly pointed out the objective fact that more people played Hi-Fi Rush and the critical and fan reception via reviews and user scores shows more people enjoyed it as well.
Also, in the interest of fairness you should also call out people who try to keep associating the game as a metric of Sony's success or failure. Note that in my posts I've not associated the game as a consoles success barometer once.
The user reviews there will certainly give you an idea, but you already knew this.
There's no problem having different opinions here, as long as they are expressed without insulting others.
We are not Gaf and we have our own ideas on moderation. If you find yourself being dogpiled, DM me and let me know so we can have moderation look at the situation and stop it from persisting.
Gaf, reset and many other places, including media and twitter over-represent Xbox, as they are north america based.... so comparing us (european based) to them is really pointless IMO.
Additionally, if one finds oneself feeling like they’re being dogpiled, perhaps Re-examining what one has said that people took exception to or found worthy of mockery would be in order.
Self reflection is always good but there's no harm letting mods know if one feels attacked or undermined in some way.
Mods! I am being attacked and undermined by BryanK! He’s not blindly bowing to my moral and intellectual superiority!!!!
I interviewed at Arby’s three times!!!
Bryan, I love you man, but did you seriously just say Gaf over-represents Xbox ?
I don't go there much anymore but when I was posting, it seemed like moderation was coming down very hard on PS fans and posters. I never got warnings, just straight bans... even when I was insulted and asked for mods to look into it I was told to go away and when I dealt with the person myself I got the ban.
I disagree with their moderation and how it's enforced.
I know resetera was like that when I was last there.

You mean XboxGAF? The shilling for GamePass and Xbox has become disgusting there.
The fact that posters there like Hendrick’s, DarkMage619, you, Vaibhav Pishal, kingfey/feynoob/spideyfan aren’t permabanned for the shill bullshit you all post shows that to be a fact.Bryan, I love you man, but did you seriously just say Gaf over-represents Xbox ?
I think you have offended him now, for not including him in your list
And I'm offended because you forgot Riky
