Sony Investments in SP & GaaS - higher investments into SP - major investments into GaaS

[8BiTw0LF]

Simplified:
Red arrow pointing up = amount of £ invested
Pink = SP investment in 2025
Yellow = SP investment in 2023
Green = SP investment in 2019
Pink arrow being at the top shows the total amount of £ invested in SP will be higher in 2025 than it was in both 2023 & 2019

If you consider inflation and skyrocketing game development costs and pots tual setbacks, I dont think it would cut it to maintain single player games at the quality and quantity they were.

Oh please. You say that like there aren't ways to support single player games with after release content. Or bring games back in ways which better suit the market or the ip depending on the situation. When talking quantity, we'll, where's all these supposed 2nd teams and the fruits of their labors?

The yellow line shows 2023 investment.

The yellow line shows 2023 investment.

Ah nevermind, I read the yellow as 2019. Cheers, colours are not my strength.

Seems like the 2025 investment is crap considering there will be a massive cumulative inflation between 2019 and 2025.
