There are still delusional Xbox-Fans around, hoping to spread misinformation.

Everything is healthy. Big budget, huge sales. Massive profits.
People should repel all this shareholders nonsense. All that justbto fill their pockets, that is all about. Greed is unlimited. They can fuck off wihh their gaslighting.

Not really. Totoki said the margins are abysmal. The budgets definitely need to shrink.
Not the AAA gaming. Those rake hundred of millions of profit. Other areas should be optimise better.
Lowering AAA budget could negatively impact AAA games, as those shitheads wouldn't want to cut tens of millions cost on Woke garbage and instead would cut game development.
I'm good with this. I'd be fine with PS4 lvl graphics with greater image quality, if it leads to shorter dev times and more AA titles to fill in the gaps.
Modern day AAA needs burning to the ground and it's ashes pissed on.
The sector has forgotten what AAA meant and why it was successful.
It's now just an advertisement for interactive movies.
Actually, just burn down the entire industry and start from scratch. It's a bloated corpse of what it used to be.

Nah mate. 200m - 300m is too much. Spider-Man the first game had a budget of 100m+ and is leagues ahead of the second game. How is that possible that a sequel with 330m budget is much worser than the first game?
100m -150m for Sony's AAA titles should be the maximum. No wonder Sony started porting to PC. It doesn't hsve much of usecif you generate huge revenue streams but your profit margins are noticeably small compared to that. PlayStation needs a huge reboot. Hence Totoki speaking of major changes incoming.

Why is wishful thinking? Nothing I did say was made up. I just list what has happened and the stated facts by official Sony executives. I don't get it why people think it's unreasonable. Sony is profit-oriented company. If they can save billions of Dollars by moving PlayStation back to Japan, then they will do that. Totoki is money guy and I trust his sense for optimsing PlayStation's expenses. Remember folks PlayStation is Japanese. A japanese company returning to Japan is not a far stretch.
it isn't too much if the games sells and they sold.
SM was 200M$. but i do agree, SM2 was overblown, but that is normal, when you have Sweet Baby taking tens of millions, huge HR which is total bullshit.
SM2 was biggest money wash.
huge revenue is huge profits. but those never enough for suits. they want lower budget to make more profit for their Pockets. how it helps games and gamers?
while i care about health of their games, they are more than healthy. they not just earn back all the money in 1 month, but they also make so much, which automatically finance next game fully.

No Spider-Man 1 didn't have 200m lol.
Still 200m should be not approved for any future game. That's simply a waste. The Californian egos need to be shattered once and for all.

Told you. Trump is serious.
PlayStation's days in America are numbered.
PlayStation's days in America are numbered.
Yeah the details are so vague, it could be awful changes or great changes.
Kind of reminds me of PS3 days. Whether its after they fixed up or before we’ll have to see

That & the sweet baby that does nothing but bring negative pr & bad conversations surrounding your game.
I love insomniac but they have gone full in that direction. All that diversity & sweet baby inch consulting yet you got the Puerto Rican flag & Cuban mixed up, that’s hella shameful especially for a game that was all about miles morales who is Puerto Rican & has a lot scenes talking about Puerto Rican stuff
Yeah, this basically confirms what I thought. PlayStation is pushing further into their GAAS domination plans. This guy understands the business in a way few other do.

You should practice your Reading comprehension. There is literally no mention of GaaS, nor does anything indicate for that.
He doesn't need to use specific words to understand what he means. Today is a victory for GAAS gamers around the world. Celebrate my friend.
