You just named one fool.

almost 3 million units in storage for holiday season.
So they can produce 6.5 million units per quarter now, which is awesome. May beat HW sales expectations.
Yeah, I'm sure it will be good. Hopefully they can get back some of the users and subs too.

Let's go this route. Simple Google search will show your lack of knowledge. Sony might have funded it, but it's a FromSoftware games.
Don't change any more goal posts. I wouldn't mind your account banned, as you keep digging your grave. Let's continue though

First line, under developer, which is FromSoftware. You haven't refuted anything. Stop fucking up the threads, stop wasting my or others time here. You made a clown of yourself, go ahead and leave.Hmm won't let me load images here but that's ok.. I got a link.

So you can't read now?
Here let me help you ignorant ass.
TWO developers are listed.
Multiple names are listed and not all of them are From Software.
Same thing goes for Demon's Souls.
Quit the PC warring and ill be glad to not quote you anymore.

Look at the previous quarters, traditionally Q3s are stronger in terms of new subs. And also notice that in this quarter even if the subs went a bit down the revenue did a good bump. We also have to consider that PS Plus was on a steady subbers growing trend but got stuck when their hardware sales got stuck due to chips shortages. So maybe now that in Q3 sales will grow a low maybe subs also grow too.
This Q3 pretty likely they will sell somewhere between around 9 and 10M consoles. On average almost half of the MAU get PS Plus and a good chunk of these consoles will be already active PS4 PSN MAU. So maybe PS Plus may get a couple million new subbers from the consoles sold. We also have to consider many people get plus to play MP games, and CoD achieved the record of fastest selling debut in PS, so maybe some new subs may come from there.
Bloodborne was a collab with fromsoft but you had a fair share of sony japan studio working on the game like ex sony vet Teruyuki Toriyama...... hes literally one of the producers on the game lol..........
bloodborne came out in 2015 and its amazing 'fans' of the game still dont know this stuff by now
Honestly though that's the same for any AAA game, there's the main developer and then sub developers who help out. At the end of the day it's still a From Software game even if it was contracted. The only difference being is that Sony tasked one of their developers to help out rather than From contracting somebody else, likely to save money.

So if we were to look up Bloodborne, is it a Sony or FromSoftware game? Everyone knows the answer here, but you. You're the one guy who doesn't get the hint, the first or second time. Maybe not even the third time.
A Collab. Everyone knows it's a FromSoftware game, funded by Sony. And let's just say it was a Sony game, it's the only game I look forward to from
Exactly the response I was looking for. So when others play @ 4k with actual raytracing, no resolution or frame drops, what river are you gonna be crying into? We'll get the best version of your favorite games. Cry me a fucking river
Stop with the vulgar insults. Don't try our patience.
You're actively becoming quite the piece of crap around here.
Damn their Financial Services segment has some really strong margins. I wouldn't be surprised if Sony expand into that sector more going forward, wasn't there something about them and a Japanese bank a little while ago? Can't recall the details. But yeah, with those kinds of margins (net income is almost as much as the Gaming segment but with almost 1/3 the required revenue to do so), it wouldn't surprise me.
Gaming seems to be doing well too, though. PS+ sub count dropoff is interesting, but I think most of those are lapsed accounts that likely didn't do much with their subs to begin with. That said, actual revenue and net profit from the Services segment grew, which means the new PS+ tiers (or at least PS+ Extra, which likely makes up the majority of the non Essential subs) are pulling in their weight.
Being 600K down on software sales isn't outside the realms of what was expected; there weren't any big 3P releases over the summer that I can think of outside of Saint's Row and, well, that has its issues. TLOU Part 1 Remake did pretty well, but I guess all of that combined wasn't enough to offset against what they did from July - September the previous year (although interestingly, there was no 1P software from Sony during that period last year, as I think Rift Apart came out in June, though there is longer-term sales of that and other games 1P & 3P running into FY 2021 Q2 and so forth).
But even that actually isn't particularly bad. Q2 was up over Q1 for 1P software sales, and FY 2021 Q2 1P sales can be explained in part due to continued TLOU Part 2 & Ghosts of Tsushima sales plus sales being maybe slightly artificially boosted by lockdown (it's only maybe around very late Summer 2021 into Fall 2021 where it seemed like the strictest lockdowns were starting to ease).
Sony Japan helped in the development as well, particularly on the technical side. Sony did more than just fund the game.
In any case, Sony own the IP so legally Bloodborne is their game, but we can fairly say From Software are the main creative force and Sony Japan were a supporting creative source (at best) and a bigger technical assistance force on the game.
Which probably more or less matches up with Sony Japan's role with Demon's Souls, tbh.

I don't think you are wrong.
Just like I pointed and him is trying to say the drop in 3rd-party sales has nothing to do with that PC strategy or move... 3rd-party releases are weak in quantity and quality and that affects overall revenue in in platforms.

I get that, but this dude thinks when I said the only game from Sony I look forward to is Bloodborne, which isn't even a fully Sony product.... It kinda proves my point the WHOLE TIME.
im not sure if you are looking forward to perfect dark reboot, but when that comes out do you consider that a fully MS product? Crystal dynamics is co-developing with the initiative and not in the role as a support studio. How do you view this ? and yes i know MS own the perfect dark IP. But Sony owns Bloodborne IP as well. What makes these two situations different?
@DoctaThompson i have no personal issues with you but it does seem like u brought some of your stupid takes from gaf here and thats sad really. Just hold the L on this one and move on man. Educate yourself some too, i get you may not prefer playstation centric things and thats fine but to each his own, just give credit where credit is due.
