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

Despite all the noise, Playstation are killing it.

Let's not forget Helldivers 2 either and co sole exclusives like Stellar Blade and Wukong.

Not even a miss like Concord can undermine the huge successes this year.

Don't you think Final Fan Rebirth, Stella Blade and Wukang etc are really good.

Do you only date super models or something?
All cracking games.

I just want Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo to have at it like they used to.
Nintendo is sat playing with blocks in the corner
Sony are pissing in the sandbox
And Microsoft have gone home crying because they missed their mummy.

They're acting like toddlers instead of the big dick energy Colossuses that they used to.

Half-arsed is half energy wasted. Maybe it's time for a new competitor to enter the ring to mix stuff up?

It needs to be said! It's crazy how the narrative online is there's nothing to play on PS5. I blame the PC ports that took away the focus and attention on the console. It's giving Xbox energy when they started porting their games and nobody cared about the box anymore.

Btw, it's the first time I see Sammy Barker real face 👀

Despite the big 1st party Playstation Studios not releasing any games, its been a great year for them. Could of been better if it wasnt for a few certain things


Most negativity isnt real, its just Xbox and PC fan media and shills.

Its becoming more and more popular for mainstream media to go after trash stories and negativity, without any reality to them, especially for popular or successful people/companies/sports teams etc
People would make you think Sony and PlayStation brand is dying

Microsoft never was anything on the level of Nintendo and PS. Just flash hype by media and dumb fans who wanted COD, Halo and Gears.

That era died in 2011 and they aint coming back. Only the shitty fans and MS shills wanted to carry on a console war to make it seem significant

Any year with a mainline final fantasy is a good year. Relink, Stellar Blade, Wukong and SH2 turning out good were a big surprise. TGA's this year going to be lit we are due for a new fromsoft game announcement and KH4 trailer and launch window

That era died, and so did the brand. And they aint coming back. No point wishing something that barely existed

The OG Xbox had great games that tried to, and sometimes succeeded in, pushing the boundaries. The Xbox 360 continued with that up until 2010 when it became the defacto cod gears halo slope know today.
More than that, Microsoft offered real competition after Sega exited, forcing Sony to get the lead out, leading them to create equally great games.

The PS2/PS3 Vs Xbox/Xbox360 era was an incredible decade for console gamers and pc gamers alike.

Of course, if you're a fanboy who autistically closed themselves off to all the market and instead chose one plastic box, you would disagree that there other plastic box was any good. But that's on you.

Lovers of gaming can see where competition forced the industry to be the best and why, since we've lost competition, the industry has stagnated.

The best we can hope for is handheld wars to force some true innovations from the big 3 or, one of them to shit out of the industry and bring some fresh blood in.

Gamers didn't play half of these games that they assumed weren't great...

The last two years have been jam-packed with high-quality game releases... but negativity is what sells online and being anti-sony is about as negative as you can get right now.

Why do yall attribute ff7 rebirth as a Sony success story when its a 3rd party game? It's Square's MVP, not Sonys.
Astrobot and Helldivers were Sonys big success stories.
Sony paid for the exclusive rights for the whole trilogy.
I’m not even sure if the game will ever come to Xbox this generation.
Different from FFXVI that was a Square Enix decision and the game has chance to come to Xbox.

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

Article sounds a lot like what I’ve been telling so many of you this year. Ps5 is easily the best platform to play on in 2024. We got so much shit from Sony. When you combine their output with a lot of great 3rd parties…. that gives you a ton of games

Helldivers 2, Rise of The Ronin, Stellar Blade, Final Fantasy Rebirth, Astro Bot, Silent Hill 2 and Wukong. PS is currently the only place where you can play ALL of these titles… Nintendo and Microsoft didn’t show up at all compared to Sony

Yet some people still believe “PS5 has no games” because random dudes on social media want to look cool by saying it or have an agenda. People out there need to use their brains more.
