>>739133508kek, their dogshit woketard games flopped so hard they're now no longer making them multiplat because they got embarassed by steam chartsKWABs
>>739133508Unfortunately for Sony those can be played on YouTube for free
>>739133508>the bald space nigger game is going to be Snoy exclusiveno... give me back my 3rd person over the shoulder cinematic experiences...
>Re-release 5 year old games on PC for full price>Nobody buys them because it's full price for a 5 year old game>"Guess no one but our captive audience wants them, oh well."
Shit. I might have to buy a blu-ray player for these!
>>739133850They know, but Sony needs to sell their console.
>>739133887>the bald space nigger gameYou'll need to be more specific.
>>739133850Oh, yes. All that glorious Chinese money.
>>739133957Oh nevermind I can just pirate them on youtube!
>>739133994ok? does chinese money not count?
>>739133508thank God, keep the dei propaganda away from us please
>>739133508Oh, no, the goyslop...
>>739133980Better hike the price up again to milk the loss from the snoys.
>>739134067Sure don't. Same with Russian money.
And nothing of value was lost to pc master race
yeah everyones chomping at the bit for saros
>>739133850Nice narrative single-player games you posted
>>739134131I don't know what argument you're trying to make.
>>739134215Just that all those PC sales are going to sub-human trash.

>>739134268I'm sure Capcom is very upset
>>739134307I would be too if my target audience was now mostly the same people that primarily play gacha and MOBA games.
But youtube still exists to play ps5 exclusives on pc
>>739133508>ghost of dyke>intergalactic the heretic dyke>wolveronions>saarosyou can keep em
>>739134396so... the japanese?
>>739133508oh no...
>>739134396gacha and moba game players are the cash cows. Why would they be upset? you're not making any sense.
>>739134268post flag
>>739134396no you wouldn't anon, you'd be rich
>>739133508insomniac's top talent pool has already been dissolved as of the ending of spider man 2 development so what am i going to miss out on? DEI rebuilds of old engines and God of War Woman version?
>>739134445You see the problem then. It's a temporary audience. >>739134456You're right. Capcom should shift to gacha and MOBA games. With their brand recognition growing in China, it would be an easy transition.

>>739133508tlou1, gow '18 and spider man were ported which were pretty much the best nu PS exclusives. I doubt they'll ever make anything better than those games. it only goes downhill from here.
wow... another uncharted game I wont be playing...
>>739134956Uncharted is pretty fun bro
>>739134630All you gotta do is look at the releases. There hasn't been a 1st party Sony game ported to PC since TLOU2 over a year ago, and the only one coming up is online only slop.

>>739133508Are they really expecting PCfags to buy a console instead of upgrading their PC?
The only singleplayer sony game anyone wants to play is bloodborne. No one wants the rest of teir cinematic garbage.

>>739133508Sony got completely mindbroken by Stellar Blade selling more and faster on PC than anyone of their first party slop.
>>739135369Microsoft has handled PC much better in terms of ports but they also own windows, so it’s a different story. Sony is more scared of losing hardware sales I guess
>>739133508>narrative single player gameso Saros enter into that? because it isn't very narratived
>>739135502wait resetera actually want sony to not have exclusives? lmao
they make more money selling consoles and then having people adopt their ecosystem where they take a cut of all sales. so obviously, what nintendo has done forever, selling really shit tier ports of old ass games
>>739133850All Sony games so far have flopped on PC
>>739134396As opposed to browns that won't touch a game unless there's a ball or gun in it?
>>739133508and nothing of vaue was lostbut please bring gran turismo to pc, even if is always online and requires a PSN account. its fine. its the only game i want. im not buying a console for 1 game. ill just emulate the old ones for free instead so ure just losing money
>>739135502>>739135636thats just a reddit kneejerk shitter reaction from a brainlet with no critical thinking skills
>>739135634Probably. Other than Marvel games like Spider-Man 1 and 2, Returnal was my favorite PS game that came to PC.
>>739135749>brainlet with no critical thinking skillsSo Sony execs?
>>739133604You will be on your knees, begging for a Wolverine port, stupid tendie.
>>739135694>guaranteed +1000% ROI>flopyeah sure, buddy
>>739135502>giving people reasons to buy your console is a bad business decision If commies understood how to run a business, they wouldn't be commies.
>>739135694Maybe try making good games first
>>739135819It's already on PC thoughhh
>>739133508It will stay and exclusive because no one wants to play it
>>739133508So Sony is going to peddle shit like fairgame$ and hope people buy it up lol
>>739135901based
Personally I don't mind the first party Playstation games; the only one that I've bought and played (and enjoyed; it was pretty good. Haven't played anything else they've ported to PC) was Days Gone. What worries me the most is Sony buying exclusivity for those games that sell the best on Playstation. For example Code Vein 2 and Fatal Frame 2 were some of my favorite games of 2026, and both bombed to hell and back on PC while doing fine on Playstation. I would hate games like them become Playstation exclusives because I would be unable to play them. >But those games are fucking shit Maybe, but I personally loved them, flaws and all.
>>739135338There were two of those earlier this month
I have a PS5 for like 4 years now and never played a single sony game on it. Only played 3rd party games.
>>739135883Their games aren’t actually good enough to incentivize that
>>739135883That only works for Nintendo because they can hold Pokemon hostage, what is Sony going to hold hostage, TLOU? Horizons? Spiderman?
Resetera, of all people, being opposed to this is so bizarre to me.
>>739136072Yeah those
>reseteraidort masterrace>/v/virgin DRM fans
>>739136018>>739136078Go back and stay there. outsider.
>>739136141Why they're basic pc cattle
>investing in asian games again>singleplayer games are exclusive again>remaking games people have begged for years for (infamous for example)>ordered the main AAA studios to do mid sized budget games inbetween big releases to keep IPs healthyJim ryan literally was death incarnate for playstation and now that he is gone you can see them unfuck themselves in real timeOnly thing that is still like a guillotine above their heads is the ps6 pricing which will inevitably will go towards 900+ bucks
>>739135694Do you think it might be because they port them over a year after launch when all the hype and fomo is gone? No, that can't be it.
>>739134187hmm? Resident Evil and Pragmata and Monster Hunter and DMC5 are all generally narrative focused games.
>>739133508X for doubt.
>>739136283sony fans are so delusional lmao
>>739133850>50% consolefat sales$79.99-$109.99 heavily frontloaded during launch week, great for sales charts and revenue>50% of mustard sales*sold at $2.99 or $9.99 1 year later after console exclusivity deal ends and another 1 year of waiting for the best discount, great for sales charts but not for actual revenue
>>739135819>5 years agoGaming is such a fucking meme. No wonder this industry is on life support.
Exclusives are a good thing and drive competition/creativityA major reason why the current video game market is dogshit is that Microsoft completely removed itself as a serious competitor to Sony leading to Nintendo and Sony to be basically monopolizing completely different markets and leading to dogshit games because they don't have to try and keep their userbases
what really spooked them is the fact that ps5 games started to actually sell significantly less on ps5 ever since pc ports became a thing, the games are not regarded as special anymore
the only sony game released on pc that i enjoyed playing was tlou2 but then again everyone considers it dogshit so
>>739133625lmao
Sony doesnt even make any good single player games anymore anyways. Like what big single player games did the PS5 get in the last 5 years that was worth playing. I have a PS5 right beside me here and I havent even played 1 exclusive game on it unless you count FF7 Rebirth.
>less cuckshit goyslop faggotry on my PC
>>739135630>Sony is more scared of losing hardware sales I guessDoes Sony even turn a profit on hardware sales?
>>739133508>>739133604>the only PS5 exclusive I was interested in was death stranding 2>this gets announced a few months after they ported it to PCunless sony starts making interesting games again like they did back in the PS1-3 era then they can keep them
>>739135883The entire PS5 generation proved that this literally didn't work
They are obviously betting on a load of people buying PS5s for GTA6.
>>739133508The only single player Sony game I played and liked recently was Stellar Blade, who announced they're self publishing the sequel.
>>739133508lol the only Sony games I bought were the ones they released on PC.Guess they won't be getting anymore money from me.
>>739136407The golden age of gaming was due to exclusivity: >Console games needed to be good enough to convince people to invest on an expensive piece of hardware>PC games took advantage of the hardware without being limited to console specs Meanwhile today you can make a shit game and still make a profit because by releasing it everywhere you will get enough sales regardless of quality.
>>739136520They are not wrong, all the browns have been saving for years
>>739136520Probably not a bad bet when GTA 6 will probably sell 50M units in just one month.
>>739136449Ratchet and Clank baby
>>739136243>tryharding this badlyYou're clearly a newfag cancer
>>739136449>unless you count FF7 Rebirth.nobody does
>>739136578you have to be 18 to post here
>According the Herman Hulsthe'll be gone by the end of the year
>>739136513They've sold nearly 100,000,000 PS5 consoles.
>>739136559Also lead to a golden age of indie games >Microsoft/Sony/Nintendo would gas up your game with free marketing in exchange for you making a killer XBLA/PSN/EShop indie gameNow every indie game is just some tranny ps1 ironic simulator slop
>>739136609Well yeah but I was just trying to be generous I guess as it was exclusive for like a year or something.
i unironically believe they can comeback from this horrible ps5 gen
>>739136283>>investing in asian games againBy Asian they meant Indian, so...>>singleplayer games are exclusive againMeans nothing if they suck.>>remaking games people have begged for years for (infamous for example)People spam fake "rumors" about this every year and nothing happens.>>ordered the main AAA studios to do mid sized budget games inbetween big releases to keep IPs healthySee above.
>>739136623Ratchet and Clank is a millennial franchise, zoomers don't give a fuck about it
>>739136669Sony won't fire him. They're just going to let him fulfill his contract term and then he'll leave. It's cheaper that way.
>>739136407Only if console actually innovate on hardware. Nintendo understands this even if their hardware stuff is largely gimmicks. Even MS did with Kinect. If consoles are just pc lite then what's the reason to prevent people from buying your games? It's just a pointless waste. You expect people to pay more money to buy the same or shittier hardware that they already have, when that hardware is also scalped/low on supply, and to top it off, you take a loss on it as well? Genius
>>739136672And they have sold jackshit for games while barely making anything off the generation because of it.
>>739133508Saaros sold like 300k. We'll see how long they swallow their pride for.
>>739133508still wont buy a playstation.
>>739133508theyre all dogshit anyway I just use my ps5 for multiplatform games>>739133625lol'd
>>739133604Cunnyborne
>>739136745The Nintendo Switch 1/2 and the Kinect did not innovate anything. No one cared about their gimmicks. The reason why people bought the Switch 1/2 is cause it has software you can't get anywhere else and people wanted that software.
>increase price of ps+ today>consoles are costing almost 1000 dollars>stop PC portsgreat decision Sony I'm sure many people will now purchase a console to play Saros and Astrobot.
Good. Snoys burying themselves even deeper
>>739135883how about make your console in itself interesting enough for people to buy them? you don't need to hold games hostage, retard, just make your console be a good experience to whoever is buying it, I guarantee you the sales of PS5s would skyrocket if there was no ps plus subscription and people could play multiplayer for free, I guarantee you the sales of PS5s would skyrocket if Sony allowed people to use other storefronts such as Steam or GoG on it instead of locking you in the garbage ps store, where games cost more than steam and when they get a sale it's nowhere near Steam prices, I guarantee you the sales of PS5s would skyrocket if the hardware was actually good and not crap that is beaten by a gtx 1060 from 2016, I guarantee you the sales of PS5s would skyrocket if Sony didn't FIGURATIVELY steal people's games because they failed to log in after a 30 day periodBut of course the problem is the games not being exclusive, of course it is
When I made a thread about the end of Sony ports on the Steam forums months ago the most common reply was "don't care I already own a PS5" so Sony is doing the right move.
>>739136757It's been the most profitable generation in Sony history my friend.
>>739136879based
>>739136897>can't get anywhere elseI emulate Switch games on my deck for free
Just in time for a exclusive fromsoft game that would make /v/ seethe again
>>739133508I would have modded yotei and playing it but it's no big loss since it's clearly worse than tsushima which was just okay.No big loss since ShadPS4 plays all the relevant PS4 games, and the PS5 has no games.
>mfw I bought a ps5 before price hikesI am a fucking genius
>>739136897The fact that they tried shows they at least understood. There needs to be some justification to lock games to shitty hardware. Not just "buy this, it's like a pc but locked to only run certain games and you have to pay to use your own internet"what a sales pitch
name singular good sony game io cannot play on pc
>>739136745>Only if console actually innovate on hardware.Nope The PS2 wasn't the strongest hardware of the 6th gen and it had a bunch of great exclusives same with the gamecubeExclusives sell hardware (although a decent 3rd party support doesn't hurt) and foster dedicated userbases The 360 had a lot of strong exclusives from around 2005-2010 but stopped trying afterwards which lead to the PS3 dominating the late 7th gen On top of that the PC releases all have steam/epic taking massive chunks of the sales, they'd be better off returning to exclusives and post game DLC content which has largely been replaced by these gamepass indian bait PC portsRemember how Spiderman 1 for PS4 had shitloads of really good DLC chapters? remember how Spiderman 2 had zero of that and the game was shit to top it off?Glad they're dying and hopefully Sony doesn't make the same mistake next genThe reality is most PC players are newfags to this medium and don't actually understand how the gaming market works and thus how exclusivity helps maintain the forest so to speak
>>739133625kek
>>739133508timed exclusives or they need to buy developerstudios

>>739135901>>>>jean grey tutorialCan I please just have ONE game, ONE movie, and ONE television series without fucking wom*n forcing themselves to be relevant?
>>739136484Have they ever? I think they have always sold at a loss unless any of the Pro versions were breaking even.
>>739136715They can't>talentIt's all gone>IPsAbandoned, kids won't recognize them or care about them>their main audience they built over the yeareither grew out of videogames or only buy the dogshit "narrative single player games" that are super expensive to make and only sell as exclusives
>>739137169hard to argue ps2 didn't innovate on hardware when you look at how much of a pain it is to emulate to this day. its hardware was weird as fuck compared to pc. maybe that's not useful now but at the time, building for specific architecture could genuinely be helpful in terms of efficiency and performance. now you have games that use the same directx and lumen trash apis running on de facto pc hardware with a drm lock. wow
>>739137158They didn't try. What exclusive Switch 1 hardware functionality is in Breath of the Wild? It was a multiplatform launch. What about the other Switch 1 games? Could they have been played on the Wii U? Or the Wii? Would there be any difference but poor graphics? There's a single justification for a video game console and that's its software ecosystem which relies mostly on exclusive content you cannot find anywhere else. And that has worked just fine for Nintendo.
>>739133508They are for a rude awakening that niggas won't start playing something that's not gun or ball once you stop putting it on pc
>>739133508resetera trannies are seething
>>739136715Its not impossible but nintendo has basically gobbled all the Japanese talent and western games are still shit because of wokeness
>>739133508oh no no no famitsufags don't look!
>>739136715coping snoyjeet lmao
>>739135694the problem is that (((sony))) is trying to kill itselfa few million sales for a port is profitable and they're saying no to those while releasing concord flop after flop
>>739136715Not really. Young people dont care about consoles.
>>739137442When are they not, but it is the same shit as herePeople with a brain understand console exclusivity is neccessary for the survival of the platform and people who just want their games on steam seethe instead
>>739136310Capcom isn't comparable to Snoy you tard, they're a third party developer/publisher who doesn't have a storefront platform where they take a 30% cut of all other third party games. Snoy wants you to buy into their ecosystem and use first party exclusives to that end.

>>739137567reminds me of my bussy
Where's the "exclusive are anti-consumer" crowd? Where did they go?
>>739133508>port everything to PC>nyoo we're going back to Playstation>will now take 40 years for Sony to rebuild what they lostlol good luck
>>739137556sure, lets see what happens when gta 6 releases and normalfag zoomers get massive FOMO
They are only doing this because the rumored next Xbox will be able to play PC games
GOW:R, MM, SM2, SAROS, WOLVERINE are all psyop globohomo sweet baby slop anyway. The less people they manage to brainwash the better it is for the humanity.
>>739137376Playstation is not surviving past 6, they squandered every single bit of hope they had left, if they were to rebuild all they lost, it would take at least a decade to get back to even PS4 levels, and PS4 wasn't even the high point of Sony, far from it, it would need a colossal effort to return to PS2 levels of influenceMeanwhile Valve is at full steam, no pun intended, displaying goodwill to the customer like no company has ever done in the history of the medium, PC gaming is at an all time high and will only keep growing in the future, the current gaming Zeitgheist is extremely favorable to PCs and extremely hostile to consolesSony has an "Everest" to surpass and they absolutely have no supplies to reach even the first campNintendo and Microsoft were smarter in a sense, they both realize the traditional console market is a sinking ship and pulled out, Nintendo went the Hybrid route and dominates it, Microsoft is most likely going the pre-built PC route, only Sony is left in the traditional console market
before it was>WAAAAAH EXCLUSIVES ARE ANTI CONSUMER AIEEEE>fine, you get the game 1 year after console release, happy now, "patient" gamers?>HAHAHA PS5 GOT NOT GAMES AMIRITE CHUDBROSnow it's>fine, new games are console only>AIEEEEEEEE WE DIDN'T ACTUALLY NEED THEM WE DON'T WANT TO WAIT 1 YEAR WHO CARES T-THEY ARE ALL SHIT ANAWAY O ALGO (which is why pclards are in this thread coping and bumping it to bumplimit)so can you make up your mind for once, pclards?to me it just sounds like you are salt that you won't play gta6 at launch and upcoming amazing sony games
>>739137865>HAHAHA PS5 GOT NOT GAMESThis has always been the case. The greatest PC ports were PS4 ports and whatever shit they released from the PS5 catalog literally don't matter and are not worth anyone's time.
>>739137929cope timmy
>>739137982go eat your dog's butthole sanchez
>>739133508Well less money for them then since I would have bought Saros if it came to PC since I really enjoyed Returnal on PC.
>>739138026>timmy sexual fantasises out of nowherestill no gta6 at launch btw
Post your narrative driven face RIGHT FUCKING NOW
>>739137559/v/ doesn't care about snoy games unless they were from the japanese branch they killed
>>739133508So I guess Nixxes is gonna get shut down next since the point of buying them was for their PC porting capabilities. Honestly I'm not surprised since their latest ports like Death Stranding 2 and Spiderman 2 has been mid so far, probably from the lack of funding and support by Sony since that's been their plan all along.
>>739138139post japan studio collection right now
>>739138213>more studio closure than games
>>739138213they are a support studio, they are not doing only ports
>>739138339>Saaros flopped>Marathon flopped>Concord flopped>a bunch of random studios sony bought have already been shut down before they could release anything>now thisMS gets a lot of shit for their acquisitions but so far Sony's have been even more shortsighted and braindead

A child with fetal alcohol syndrome could make better business decisions than the retards at Sony.
>>739134629why are you on reset era anyways?
>>739138395Majority of their work has been to port PC games. What else have they done in supporting sony?
Is it just me or are images loading super slow
>>739138723They codeveloped saros with house marque
>>739137819What the hell are you talking about? The PS5 is selling only a few million units behind the PS4 launch-aligned. Playstation has never made as much money or been as profitable as it has been in the PS5 generation. Valve is about to launch a console-like PC for more than it would cost to buy a pre-built gaming PC, with newer and better parts, from Walmart. Valve is pushing into hardware because they don't trust the PC platform, since that's controlled by Microsoft. And the current gaming zeitgheist is mobile, not PC. Nintendo hasn't pulled out of the traditional console market. The NSW1/2 are still consoles. Being a handheld doesn't make it stop being a console. But Nintendo are diversifying outside of consoles. They're doing theme parks and movies now. You're right that there is a problem with consoles, but all your reasons for why are wrong.
>>739138530>>want to get into Unchartedyoutube
>>739138723>Majority of their work has been to port PC gamesof what is publicly well known yeah, doesn't mean that weren't busy doing other things>What else have they done in supporting sony?just like bluepoint was listed in financial reports as a support studio now that PC ports are not longer needed they will likely just assist their first party studios with their games
>>739138805Get better internet, Brazilbro.
>>739133850Capcom games do well on PC, but all Sony's single player games were relative flops, including their biggest ones like God of War Ragnarock, Last of Us 2 and Spiderman 2.I'd pull out too if I were Sony, at least this way you make your console fanboys happy.
>>739138837So we have to worry about Housemarque AND Nixxe now that Saros flopped?
>>739139304how is a port selling millions of copies a flop
>>739133902>guy crying for an 11 year old fromsoft game because it will sell "billions on pc"
>>739133604Tsushima and Yotei, TLoU 1&2, Returnal & Saros, Rift Apart, God of War 2018 & Ragnarok, Wolverine, etc
> /v/trons will somehow find a reason to believe this is not a good news to sustain the business for 30 more years
>>739139394A few millions is nothing, this isn't 1996 anymore.
>>739138853>The PS5 is selling only a few million units behind the PS4 launch-alignedYou seriously think selling below a console from 13 years ago, now that Xbox isn't even competing for hardware sales, is a good metric?In which world a business is happy with selling below a 13 yo product?These snoys ffs.
>>739139545All of those (aside from Saros and Yotei) are already on PC, and there's nothing outside of Wolverine and Intergalactic announced fro the future.
>>739137304That's not 1st party.
>>739138213They're still porting GaaS games to PC.
>>739133625Gottem
>>739133508NOOOOO!!! Now how will I play those woke, cinematic, hyper-realistic, third-person, over-the-shoulder camera, movie, video games? NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
>>739133604Come on, man, you know...UUUUUUUHHHHH!!!! Well...
>>739134396I'm sure capcom is in tears.
>>739139565It is when it cost nothing to port. According to the Insomniac leak it only cost them $3m to port, and that's on their custom engine on a game that wasn't built intended to be ported. On an engine that already is cross platform and/or making a PC version from the start would cost a fraction of that.
>>739133508Will they be based enough to retire the ones that are already published tho?
>>739136006>while doing fine on PlaystationSubstantiate your statement.
Sony saw that PC players don't buy their ports much , so:Low sales + brand damageIt's just not worth it for them.
>>739134396retard
The only port that made any money for Sony was HD2.
>>739133508I'm sure their loyal fanbase will cover the slack easily.
>>739139545I haven't played a single one of these games.
Blame Noire.
>>739141353Tsushima is okay if you feel like an asscreed game. I actually liked Days Gone too, the zombie hordes were fun.The others weren't worth playing though, if i even tried them.
>>739140992>raising prices AGAIN>The PS exclusive tax
>>739133508it will all come out on pc anyway at some point
you can "play" all these games for free on youtube shortly after release.
>>739133508Okay. Bye Sony
>>739133508The only single player Sony title that I was glad they ported to PC was Days Gone. The rest, who gives a shit.
they are betting so much on wolverine it's insane
>>739142719no, they're betting on wolverine AND JEAN
I want PS3 era games (Killzone, Resistance, Uncharted). As if they were going to port them anyways
So no gravity rush port on pc?
>>739133508>Wants $70 for a decade + five (15) years late ports>Never goes on sale below $40>Wonders why nobody on PC is buying their shitSasuga, Hot Shit Hermen mix.
>>739143046You want to pay $70 for PS3 era games?
>top played games are sportsball, fortnite, cod, minecraft, and gta5>uhhh guys we better stop selling third person open world cinematic revenge games to other people
Sony come back!
>>739143078Doesn't seem like it. Thank god for emulation.
>>739143078Of course not, that's a game that people actually want and would make Sony money, and Sony clearly hates money.
>>739133850This just further shows Sony thought they could big-dick into the market and learned NOTHING about PC players or the base.>Same base that told Microslop to eat shit when they tried to force X-box Live (sorry, sorry: "Games for Windows Live") onto PC players>BTW, you're going to pay us like console players retardedly do. :^)To the point PC players told them to get bent (and get on vent) to where X-box Live (sorry, sorry: "Games for Windows Live") is no longer a thing on PC outside of THEIR console ports like Horizon 6.Same shit with Sony: >>739143131>Want to buy Spider-man?>That'll be $70 for our late port>Bloodbourne? What's that!?>Mitsubishi told us to go fuck ourselves even though we own the I.P. and could've gotten Bluepoint to do the work like we did Demon's Souls (also not ported despite leaking it was planned).>We could've told Mitsubishi to go fuck himself and ported it ourselves, but NOOOOO. You didn't buy our overpriced expensive ports.If they fuck with Kojima, Hermen better be moving addresses.
>>739143209>top selling food product worldwide is bread>i can still buy canned peppers at the grocery storesomeone has got to explain this shit for a 45 IQ brown, inbred retard like you or me
How do these kikes operate with complete blindness to how people operate? Do so many niggers steal from people to buy FIFA that it actually accounts for a majority of their sales? People can't afford gas let alone 600 dollars on a box for two games that will be mid as fuck and choked down with censorship and garbage optimization. What the fuck part of reality are they living in to where anybody thought this was a good idea? Do they really still think they live in the Crash/Spyro era of actually dreaming to compete?
>>739136715They would have to insanely diversify their first party output and they have no workforce for that unless they will open multiple new studios. 90% of games their first party studios shit out for last decade are samey third person cinematic experiences with massive budgets and only games that arent these are their least selling exclusives despite critical acclaim. Sony needs to skullfuck their first party teams and tell them to stop being mindraped by The Last of Us and to design ANYTHING else than Last of Us but [here insert IP] and good luck with that lmao.
lol this is the "back to office mandate" but for console>yeah we know it improved everybody's mental well-being and didn't impact productivity at all>but we have to justify owning prestigious high rise office space so back to office
>>739133850Sony was only comfortable porting their shit to PC because they thought Microsoft was bowing out of consoles entirely when they decided to put Halo on playstation.Now the new person in charge is looking to bring console exclusives back and undo the orders Phil was given, Sony's getting cold feet.
>>739133508Oh god now I can't play uh Horizon (shit game) or nu-GoW (shit game) or Ghost of Sogay (shit game) or uhhhhhh What am I Losing here exactly?
>>739136715The only way would be to leave California, move back to Japan, recreate Japan Studio and make cool games again. But they wont, because taking 30% on shark cards and FIFArtnightbux is too profitable, so they'll continue on this same path until everything in mainstream gaming is streaming/mobile and consoles are irrelevant.
>>739143934This isn't true at all, they put their shit on PC because they didn't expect Valve to make the Steam Deck, for it to be successful, for it to cause Valve to make the Steam Machine and Steam Controller, and for it to push Valve back into single-player game development. Hell, Valve is also making a Steam Deck 2. Nintendo is also causing them trouble due to them taking Japan. Microsoft and Xbox are pretty irrelevant no matter how many times people try to shill them. "The plan is the plan until it isn't the plan" watch what Microsoft does, not what they say.
>>739143465>This just further shows Sony thought they could big-dick into the market and learned NOTHING about PC players or the base.That they're mostly Chinese?
>>739141353>TsushimaIt's not a bad game, but I didn't play it much, and it didn't convince me to buy it>TLoU 1&2TLOU 1 is a great movie game, but it took them forever to fix that terrible PC port, so I finished playing a pirated copyI was looking forward to buying TLOU 2, even though almost all the game has already spoiled the story, but I wanted to experience the gameplay again. Plus, since I pirated the previous game, I feel like I should buy this one, so I’m waiting for a sale>Returnal I played it, and I liked it, so I'm waiting for a sale so I can buy it too. It's been out for a long time, so I won't buy it at full price>Rift ApartI'm waiting for a sale too, I pirated it, but I think I'll play the original PS2 versions next>God of War 2018 & RagnarokI didn't like the switch to third person, I prefer the old hack n slash style. Hopefully, the remake will let you play both ways>WolverineI'm not interestedI should add that I've put in over 400 hours in Helldivers 2, over 100 hours in Death Stranding, and I'm still playing Horizon Zero Dawn, but I'm getting bored with it. I'd rather play something from Guerrilla, like Killzone
>>739144186>Plus, since I pirated the previous game, I feel like I should buy this one, so I’m waiting for a salekys
>>739144176And then you have ESL niggers with Steam in english como yo
>>739134282people shittalk him for the dragons crown thing but I think him sitting on blizzards rape stories until he could get his buddies out of the way and then turn it into a book is significantly worse
>>739133604Theres that one with the lesbians on a zombie apocalypse.And that one with the lesbians on an AI apocalypseAnd the one with the lesbians on feudal japan.
>>739144186>TLOU 1 is a great movie game,shit taste

>>739144479That's one reason why Stellar Blade did so well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VtVwwyjZOLo
>>739144251What's the problem? At least I feel like buying a game instead of pirating it again>>739144391I liked it, but you're free to think otherwise>>739144587My favorite is Rika
>itt: crying PCshits with old dell laptops angry that developers don't have to deal with winkike nonsense
>>739143934Sony were delusional to begin with. The whole point of this slew of PC ports was to get people hooked on the IPs so they would be converted to future customers on Sony's platform. Release God of War and Ragnarok on PC, then make the third one PlayStation exclusive (whether on console or their own PC store), and they'll come crawling. The PSN account requirement for Helldivers 2 was part of this plan as a stepping-stool, but it obviously backfired. Of course they didn't factor in that PC players are probably the most jaded, cheap, elitist, vocal, tough-to-please, anti-sheeple demography around, and if they wanted to play more Ubislop, they have countless other options, and Sony's brands mean virtually nothing.
>>739133850unit sales. Not revenue.
>>739133604Intergalactic!
>>739133508okay Sony/Jason, see your games on Pc in 3 years.
>>739145235It's crazy how different consolefaggot consumer habits are>everyone HAS to buy the new AAAslop because there is literally nothing else to fucking play unless you wanna replay that last AAAslop for the 10th time
I only cared about Stellar Blade and they said the exclusivity was over.
>>739133508They sort of have to be unless they want to release all their games on Xbox in the future if it can run Steam.
>>739133604SAAAAROS sistas...
>>739133850this is cause capcom heavily discounts their games. selling RE3 for like 3 bucks. sony cannot adopt this strategy.
try and be respectful to Steamies on their day of mourning...
>>739136879can be emulated
None of the games I wanted when they started porting got a port. Really no idea what they were going for with this.At least there's shadps4 and RPCS3 I guess.
There are no worthwhile Playstation exclusives besides Gran Turismo
>>739136407Except Nintendo is still pumping out good games, Snoy's the only one of the two that gave up.
>>739146236>RPCS3I wish the PS3 games that I'm actually interested in worked on that turd.Eternal Sonata? Puppeteer? 3D Dot Game Heroes? Forever broken.
>>739146528>Nintendo is still pumping out good gamesdoubt.jpgHalf of them are the same old rehashes as always, the other half barely qualify as games.
>>739146528>Except Nintendo is still pumping out good games
>>739146648Is Puppeteer not good on it? That's a shame, great game, I'd like to replay it too. At least Folklore works pretty well.Have you checked Eternal Sonata on xenia maybe? I do want to play that one as well.
>>739147103>Have you checked Eternal Sonata on xenia maybe?It's broken there too, and also there is no reason to play it over the PS3 one. The PS3 version has a lot of exclusive content, it's the definitive version.
>>739143934Like the other anon explained. They are doing this to prevent Valve from succeeding with their own hardware. For all intents and purposes, the Steam Machine is a console. Imagine playing Wolverine on Valve's console. One less reason to buy another console - the PS5.
>>739147043>>739147085Cope and seethe harder
So they want to make sure their games dont sell?
>>739147085Surely their Summer games will be better than their mid ass winter games(saved by a worse reskin of DQB lmao)
They'll be back.They all come back.
>>739133625Stupid frogshitter got owned.
>>739133850That's because Xbox is struggling and the Switch can't run those games.Switch 2, PS5 and Steam Box should all take shares away from PC.
>>739147584>muh journos scores!Also it's good to see snoys are still seething for pokopia after two months lmao
>>739135883>If commies understood how to run a business, they wouldn't be commies.In complete fairness, Sony executives also don't understand how to run a business
>>739147941>snoys are still seething for pokopiaThe game that got mogged by Forza Horizon 6?It's on PS5 and not on Switch 2 ;)
>>739133508>Bloodborne PC never ever
>didn't even bother putting their backlog of PS3/PS4 era games on PC>didn't put WipEout Omega Collection on PCBut please, keep chasing your big projects that require a lot of money dumps, instead of small bankable wins that there is a clear audience for
>>739149498>muh journos scores! Again!Snoys are not so smart huh
>>739133508I’ll give a shit when 99% of them aren’t normie slop.
They haven't released a single player narrative focused game that wasn't shit since TLOU1.
>>739149769Pokopia lost. Deal with it.
>>739135498Related to that I heard that apparently people were spreading false information about Saros and I thought it was the cuck shit, but then I skimmed a plot summary and it’s all in there?
Hopefully Physint escapes that fate, it's the only upcoming Sony game I give a shit about anyway.
>>739136910>I guarantee you the sales of PS5s would skyrocket if Sony allowed people to use other storefronts such as Steam or GoG on it instead of locking you in the garbage ps storeIf anything I'd say the opposite makes more sense from a business standpoint. Why don't they just make an official PC storefront so people can play PS5 games on PC but still keep the full cut?
This is bad for me personally and good for Playstation. Playstation has no reason to exist without exclusive IP.
>>739135694What >>739136290 said timed exclusivity is always a retarded business practice since most people are NPCs and buy on hype waves.
>>739149848Pokopia will be the next botw/totk right? more years and years of eternal seethe from this faggot.
>>739150061PC gamers are obsessed with insisting Gabe takes his cut. Every publisher launcher gets relentlessly attacked and rejected.
>>739136006Nah both were great games /v/ just hates everything.
>>739150071The sad part about this is Sony doing this when they're about to bring back their AA games while giving PC users their shitty woke AAA games, damn.
>>739147547No cope needed. I was genuinely looking at buying a Switch 2, partly because I never got a Switch so I thought it might be a good deal with the backwards compatibility. But then I looked at the games and realized there's practically nothing there that I really, really wanted to play. Metroid Prime 4 was the big one, but it seems like they kind of cocked that one up a bit too, and it was hardly worth the wait.
>>739136407All the studio closures prove this isn't true dumb fuck.
>>739150216>they're about to bring back their AA gamesThey are? Like what?
>>739135153Because she didn't look like an old hag and have those hag lines every western female character has now. She looks "young" which clearly means everyone that likes her must be pedos. So says a kike
>>739150173GOG does fine. People only shit on Epic Games cause the store itself is the worst storefront ever created.
>>739139545None of those are games
>>739139545Man this really does put into perspective how fucking garbage Sony's first party line up is.
Only way I'll actually be mad about this is if the faggots now suddenly get the drive to make Days Gone 2. I actually really liked the original a ton and would kill for a story continuation
>>739150470The sour grapes will be massive when Wolverine releases later this year
>>739150432TLoU on Grounded is one of the best third person action games of all time though
>>739150524I didn't buy Spiderman what makes you think I care about Wolverine? Besides I fucking hate super hero slop I wouldn't buy that even if it was a good game on principle. GOW 2018 is the only "ok" PS5 game. Ragnarok is an insult.
>>739150627Don’t even try to deny it, you want to play it
>>739150801nta but I have zero interestthere was a wolverine game for ps3 and I remember playing the demo and it was pretty lame, didn't even bother renting it
>>739150801I do not want to play it. Wolverine is edge slop for 14 year olds who think gore is cool anyway.
The only one I was interested in was Astro Bot and it never even came to PC
>>739150848>>739150893How many times are you going to tell yourself that before you just admit that you want it?
>>739151005How many times are you going to tell yourself that before you just admit that I don't want it?
>>739150432They are, just mostly derivative. Ironically, for all the memes and hate and talk of moviegames, the stealth-action gameplay of TLoU2 is probably the best of the bunch there.
>>739151056It's really funny that despite getting the most hate as far as gameplay is concerned TLOU2 genuinely is the best game Sony have put out in decades. They really should just kick Niel to the curb cause he's clearly the weak link.
>>739150524>Hold R2 to sniffYeah no
>>739150524>people are really going to miss out on the latest marvel slop!sure buddy. sure
The amount of people who say yeah I used to own a ps4 but I bought the games on pc and didn't buy a ps5 is one of the biggest reason why they stopped doing this. Sony just isn't seeing the returns for it
>>739135694Stellar Blade did well>>739138530Whoa there anon, didnt you know that Jim Ryan already declared those previous games as ancient and not work playing, you wanting to buy games with ps3 or pre ps3 era graphics would lower public perception about Snoys graphical prowess so you WILL only play corpo approved graphical fidelity movies
>>739133850The thing is that Capcom puts all of the games that people want on PC, even their old shit gets bundled into rompacks and updated for modern hardware simply because people have a massive, throbbing interest in that sort of thing. The same applies to other companies like Konami, Bamco, fucking EA and Ubisoft too (both of which tried to tell Valve to go fuck themselves once upon a time).Sony doesn't do that, they either wait 1-2 years before throwing their least-wanted PS5 games up at full MSRP or they simply don't bother. They really gave us pic related as the only LBP game instead of the actual series, which they think is worth $60USD in current year. Then the calicuck jeetniggers wonder why their PC ports aren't doing well compared to other publishers.
>>739150524It's sad what became of Insomniac, I loved Spyro, Ratchet, and Resistance but they haven't had a good game for over a decade
>>739151862>The thing is that Capcom puts all of the games that people want on PC, even their old shit gets bundled into rompacks and updated for modern hardware simply because people have a massive, throbbing interest in that sort of thing IF IT'S PRICED LIKE DOGSHITYou know why one of the greatest games of its genre has sold 13M copies? Cause Capcom regularly sells it for less than the price of a gacha roll in Genshin Impact.
>>739135153>I still have no clue what he meant by calling the Sorceress a lolicon fantasy ...Jason Schrier is a jewish larper who pretends to be a game journalist, he doesn't know what any Japanese word means and just used lolicon as a catch-all insult for anyone that likes Japanese media. The only reason Jason was able to gain his position is because his father is practically an oligarch of his own within the traditional news media circles (print, tv, billboards, etc.), so most western game companies can't simply ignore him. That, and the bar for being a game journalist is so low that fast food workers are overqualified for such a job.
>>739135694>Want to play newest PlayStation game on PC>Have to wait a year before it drops on Steam, at which point you'd likely see spoilers all over the internet or simply are no longer hyped for it.>... simply are no longer hyped for itI'd say that I can't believe that literal consumer cattle post here, but for some reason I'm not surprised
>>739138650You should be asking him why he's on /v/ instead, but we already know that users of other websites keep congregating here because it's the only way they can discuss those topics without being banned for wrongspeak.
>>739134956They didn't even port them all, just 4 and the shitty "standalone expansion" where Neil Druckmann spends another five hours fellating himself over his black kween girlboss
>>739133508vidya was honestly healthier with platform exclusivity it seems
>>739150285Many of their Japanese and western IPs from the PS1 on up era while making new IPs, old Sony's returning, baby.
>>739135134You forgot>Xbox introduces Game Pass and uses both Day One releases (including all first party titles) and a PC version of the subscription as major selling points>Sony quickly throws together the new Playstation Plus, which is more convoluted a model, no Day One releases (especially not first party), and all of the classic games are either completely broken due to extremely poor emulation quality or are only available using Sony's laggy ass streaming service>And it's somehow way more expensive even before the multiple price hikes happened
>>739150524Are there really, honest to God, people who actually care about marvel super heroes in 2026? I thought everyone stopped caring after the avengers ended
>>739152715>Are there really, honest to God, people who actually care about marvel super heroes in 2026?
>>739135636Sony has fucked up so hard during this generation that even their basedest of snoy loyalists can't defend their actions. When Concord came out they actually had to tell the indian marketers to stop trying so hard for once.
>>739152754Disgusting
>>739133508back in my day it was the other day around
>>739136715It'll take a very long time because they got rid of everybody and brewed enough ill will that they pushed away all of the third parties from ever buying into a Playstation exclusive* contract ever again.
>>739152754They stole overwatches audience, i don't think the majority of them picked rivals up because they are a fan of marvel i think it was because it became the overwatch 2 overwatch 2 was supposed to be
>>739137116Story is worse but everything else about Yotei is a direct upgrade. I honestly would have liked it more if they just cut the plot and made Atsu a mute who goes around hunting bounties.
>>739152667Game Pass killed Microsoft's sales and sped up Xbox's death. I don't really know how that's a point off of Sony. PS5 sold over 90 million, Xbox Series X|S still can't get out of the 30 million range, and their first-party games were selling so poorly on their own platform, they were forced to branch out beyond the Xbox. The bleeding started in 2020.
>>739135704>The devs don't benefitout one side of their mouth, then>piracy doesn't impact devs because they ready got paidout the other.
>>739135694>Make 8-12 hours long story drive n movie-games>Release them on pc 3 years after the initial release>Ask 80 euros for itAnyone who was into it played it on ps5 or watched a let's play at this point
>>739136449Ratchet & ClankReturnalAstro BotGod of War should have stayed a DMC-lite series filled with blood and sex.Twisted Metal got a TV series but no game to go with it.Horizon should have been Killzone.Helldivers should do an unironic offline story based game with up to 4-player local co-op being available that comes packaged with HD2 alongside it as the online component + Super Credits for anyone who already owns HD2 in their library.Pay FromSoft to do a Demon's Souls 2, and update the Demon's Souls 1 remake with the original graphics as an option.
>>739153868It's incredibly weird that Sony have a bunch of fucking IPs from the PS2-3 era that they've just abandoned which would make for really good exclusives right about now. Bring back Resistance for fuck sake.
>>739138530They could make so much money if they sold their ps3 era games for 10 euros eachPs3 emulation isn't 100% accurate so they could just make their own, for ps2 games it wouldn't work so good due to emulation but ps3 ?>Amored corr 4/5/5V>All those ratchet and clank>Sly cooper hd collection>Infamous>Demon's soul>Disgea 3>Gow of war hd collection+3>Grand turismo 5>Last rebellion>MAG (yes it could work on pc)>Tokyo junglesJust build a good ps3 emulator (shouldn't that hard) and voila, you can sell games you made 15 years ago
>>739138856Uncharted isn't even really a moviegame, have you even played it? It doesn't have any of the walk and talk shit that TLOU popularized.
>>739154070you've never played uncharted it literally invented all that shit
>>739154145No it didn't and you haven't played them. TLOU1 was the first game from ND to use them. Uncharted 4 had them too I guess but 1-3 didn't.
>>739133508oh no
>>739137561Their exclusives aside from Spiderman 2, don't sell, retard. not even snoys want them https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_PlayStation_5_video_games
>>739153994>ps3 emulator>shouldnt be that harda hello world program on ps3 is literally 250 lines long, it's an incredibly complex architecture and RPCS3 running as well as it does is a miracle
>>739153994would buy literally every single one of those
>>739154229>Stellar Blade selling as much as Elden RingDamn that game really is the most profitable PS5 exclusive since it's definitely made on like 1/4 the budget of the rest of their slop.
>>739154185what a retard you are, I even remember the first one the game has when you're in a ruin with sully doing a "puzzle"
>>739135694They flop on PS5 too>FF16 and REbirth flopped so hard SE abandoned all ps5 exclusivityKek
>>739150894It relies on the PS5 controller to even work.
>>739154383Nah they flopped cause SE are absolutely retarded and expected them to sell Call of Duty numbers like they do all their games. Both 16 and Rebirth sold fine for what kind of games they are.
>>739154383FF16 did poorly because Zoomers have zero brand identity with FF16, and the devs were split between both working in FF16 and trying to keep FF14 afloat (and both were hurt by it).
>>739154282Then make a native portThey aren't retarded enought to delete their source code and assets, right... right ?>Yakuza hd collection+dead soul>The missing atelier games (I don't they're all on steam)>Same for tales of>Katamari>Littlebigplanet>Those gundams games>Shining resonnance>Drakengard 3>Dozens of other j-rpg I forgotHell, I would love to play some fat princessThey could release a game every 2 week easly, for years and that would cost them NOTHINGBut no, those fags want us to play nu-gow or GOY
>>739135694Stellar Blade, Ghost of Sushi, and the first Spiderman did alright because each of those were pretty alright games. Hell, even Helldivers 2 actually has had more consistent players on PC than on console. Everything else that's released flopped because they're dogshit that only consolefags trapped in a limited options ecosystem would find bearable.
>>739154070>Uncharted isn't even really a moviegameIt took them until the fourth game to elevate the combat even slightly above generic, janky throwaway shit. Beyond that you have some ultra-shallow Tomb Raider exploration, and then big QTE setpieces that they sold the games on. It's absolutely a moviegame.
>>739154383No, it's flopped because ff15 was a mess, you need to play the game+watch a movie+watch some oav+play the dlc+read a fucking book to get the entire storyAnd ff7 rebirth isn't a remake, we just wanted ff7 but in hd, not some retarded multivers bullshit
>>739154685It's a moviegame if you use it as an absolute buzzword that is so broad and vague that it could apply to basically any fucking game with a slight story focus.
>>739154742It's a movie game because you have no impact; you simply follow scripts. There's no real interaction, no resource management, and the "gameplay" sections are just holding the stick up to climb or, following an NPC who tells their story, it could very well be a cinematic that nothing would change.. You don't choose your direction; the game plays itself.
>>739133508>Bungie just bled the company another 3/4ths of a billion dollars after they already burned nearly 4 billion acquiring them>"let's cut off another inexpensive source of revenue from cheaply porting games to PC"Sony are so giga retarded it's insane.
>>739154926You haven't played it
I like how the schizos genuinely believe this is a good thing. They'd rather see Sony take the pay loss of not releasing on Steam than give Xbox a potential win; it's cutting off your nose to spite your face. the "no gaems" meme has to be the biggest psyop in gaming
>>739133508>CEO Hermen HulstThat retard is still employed?
>>739133508Finally a good move from Sony, hopefully it's the start of them being less retarded but I doubt it
>>739133625>>739133604
>>739154993>t.schizo
>>739154630>Yakuza hd collection+dead soul>He thinks this would ever in a million years happen.RGGS considers the Kiwamis the definitive versions. 1&2 HD will only exist in English if a translation patch comes out. Sega does not care.Dead Souls flopped extremely hard in America and Europe and you think they're gonna port it?
Based, fuck PC cucks they need to die in a fire.
>>739154742I'm using it in the sense that if you removed the big movie part entirely, the remaining game would have been worthy of a generic 4/10 East European jankfest you've never heard of.
>>739154229>>739154362Sony has begun to meltdown at the realization that people like hot women
>>739155082Uncharted has always been a decent TPS first and a cinematic experience second. You quite literally haven't played it. Only 4 feels like a movie game cause Niel Druckmann is a fucking hack.
Even if the 60k people who buy Sony games on Steam went out and bought a PS5, they would only make $40 mil. This seems like a panic move that won't pay off over any amount of time.
>>739135601I read somewhere that Eve is everything they wanted Aloy to be, and i think that's true, a korean binbo doll being Sony's most recognizable girl is a hilarious joke and i presume the trannies at their HQ are still seething about it.
>>739155146I think they realized that making their games multiplat diminished their prestige in the eyes of snoys, who are the main audience for their cinematic slop.
>>739140992>>739142275Notice how they only push these PS+ price hikes when there's other news to run in front of the announcement.
This is probably why stellar blade 2 is not going to be sony exclusive. Shiftup saw the writing on the wall and decided to bail out because that game is going to bomb if it was stuck with the ps5.
>>739133850Issue is that it turned out most of their games have zero appeal outside of being exclusives and there it's mostly cope purchases by console owners because otherwise it might as well be a paperweight. Their best selling "exclusive" that came to PC was Stellar Blade for obvious reasons, none of their miserable movie games. And even with those they are falling off at making anything new instead of remakes and remasters for the nth time.
Two things stopping me from getting Saros right fucking now,1) Pajeet MC (I'd even let this pass if he was a Bollywood action hero with aura)2) The cuck narrative I keep hearing aboutIt would have been an easy $70 for them.
>>739155146>>739155214It's a mix of snoy cattle becoming disillusioned from the snoy ecosystem due to multi plat and doo doo games + now the new xbox and steam machine are attempting to turn console players into PC players which would also be able to play snoy games if snoy stayed multiplat further helping the competition and harming their bottom line, I do believe this is a bandaid solution that will end up being more damage than good since snoy isn't nintendo with tendies. Ultimately it reels of desperation.
>>739155214In reality most don't actually really care that much and its only few very vocal minority that makes a stink about it. I've seen more snoys that welcome more people playing these sony games than they do reject it.
>>739155275>sold as much as Elden Ring without the Fromsoft hypeIn what universe do you think Stellar Blade could be a flop?
>>739155058Yeah I know, you can't even buy y3 remastered alone, you're forced to buy the full collectionOh also can't buy the original y0 k1 and k2 anymore, I hate them
>>739133508Not true, they're coming to both Playstation and Youtube.
>>739155495kek
>>739155471Physical media W, as always.
>>739155435I'm talking about the sequel. Sony is retarded, especially with herman hulst at the helm.
>>739155275I hope Raven comes back lads, i'll be sad if she's gone for good.
>>739155553But if 1 sold that well as a new IP with minimal advertising surely it's to be assumed that now that it's established 2 would sell more?
>>739154630>that would cost them NOTHINGuh oh, retard alerthttps://youtu.be/_Y_4nWJzsLg?si=BU8gBPcEMliI9K1Q
>>739155435>Sold as much as Elden RingReally? That's hard to believe actually
>>739155690Well basing it off>>739154229
>>739150285Nothing but baseless unproven shit being spewed on twitter. Sony already missed their chance when Bamco put out Patapon, Freedom Wars, and Everybody Loves Golf remasters last year (didn't stop them from lapping up those royalty fees), really illustrates just how much they actually care about the gorillion dead IPs they continue to sit on and do nothing with. Did you know that Sony has owned the Lemmings IP since the 90s when they bought Psygnosis (also dead)? They don't do anything with the franchise despite it having been one of the largest at the time, but they sure do own it and have put out DMCA claims on every vtuber that's tried to stream it.
>>739155661Not always. Many of Sony's games had underwhelming sequels saleswise. Ghost of Yotei for example.
>>739154429And that controller works on PC, complete with full support for all the bells and whistles Sony marketed it with. All of which could be easily translated to keyboard and mouse, or to regular controllers because the game's accessibility features allow you to play the whole game without gyro, haptic triggers, or touchpad controls. Also Gabe just dropped a new official Steam controller that does literally everything the PS5 controller does so the only actual excuse for keeping it PS5 exclusive is because Playstation is scared to admit that continuously abusing and then subsequently killing off Japan Studio for refusing to make a GaaS title was the worst decision they have made in their life.
>>739155905I mean I feel like that's entirely because it just looks worse. Spiderman 2 sold better than 1 cause it had Venom in it and everyone loves Venom. Yotei just looked like shit from the outset.
>>739139394>>739140110Because it's nothing close to what consoles are selling and the cost of it is brand reputation and appeal. Spidey 2 is supposedly a 700k vs. 15 million situation and that's one of their biggest titles with massive amounts of hype behind it. Why would you ever accept that deal? HZD, GoW 2018, and Days Gone were the only major sellers with Helldivers 2, Ghost of Sushi, and Stellar Blade being the only exceptions outside of that. Everything outside of those games has done horribly. HZD, GoW, and DG also benefit from being some of the first ports so they had a sort of first-mover advantage because of that pumping the numbers up.People seem to forget that getting a person on PC is an insanely stupid deal for them. They don't get any recurring revenue (PS+), they get a percentage cut of content sold for the game since it has to be on different storefronts they don't own, the same applies to the actual game sales, they get a percentage cut of any microtransactions done on them, and they don't get you in their ecosystem. It's objectively a bad deal all around for them as they lose the allure of exclusivity forcing you into their ecosystem and PC players are not going to buy into the hype that they do build for these games for the prices they want.Marathon is like the only thing that has shown there's PC players willing to support them on a day one outside of Helldivers 2, but that game also has a specific PC legacy tied behind it so I imagine that helped its case, and it was supposedly only a million. I mean, it flopped harder on the PS5 and Xbox.Sega itself has shown that same first-mover's advantage concept with the Yakuza series where 0 supposedly did well, but the concurrent users in particular have been dropping off a cliff compared to the PS4 and PS5 despite having day 1 parity. Sega also released 0 at $20. Capcom specifically goes to sale very fast too, way faster than most companies since the RERs have dropped to $30 in months.
>>739155664I won't give you a view anon, just explain it, how rereleasing a game you made 15 years ago would cost a lot of money ?Just don't toss your source code faggotLicensed music ? Just change them or even better, don't be a retard and stop using it for every game you will ever make
>>739155275They have Nikke money now, they don't need Sony for anything. Anyone not part of PlayStation Studios (like Shift Up or KojiPro) is obviously going to release on all platforms if they can, regardless of Sony's prospects.
>>739155690>>739155720>Elden Ring only sold 3.7mil on PS5At first I was gonna say that's PS5 only and a lot of people play the PS4 version, but then I remembered both are packaged together digitally, so it really isn't that far off no matter how you shake it.
>>739154229You should also remember that all of the first party games that do sell are also bundled to hell and back during their release window. I remember one guy posted PS-branded headphones coming with a free download code for Horizon.
>>7391559502 also reviewed poorly. GoY aside, there's GoW Ragnarok and Forbidden West. Spiderman 2 selling as well as it did, despite also winning zero awards, for me is just the game farming the good will that the previous game had, since people at least agree that Spiderman 1 was pretty good.
>>739154996You really though Jim Ryan would hand the company back to the Japanese after he left. Nope, he gave it to the Horizon creator for no reason other than the fact that he's a fellow jew who wants even more money out of Sony.
>>739156047whenever I see this trapfag I disregard the entire post because I know he's a high level retard
>>739155905That's probably because they forced a woman as the protagonist, i don't know much else about it, but i presume it's a subnautica below zero issue where the sequels focuses on all the wrong things and the product is a direct downgrade over the original.
Wanna play Uncharted's entire series? Sorry, you can't. But you can buy the 4th entry and the The Lost Legacy. Wanna play LittleBigPlanet? No. Fuck you. Sackboy's big adventure for full price.Wanna play God of War's entire series so you know what's going on in the story? Fuck you, play the 4th and 5th entry in the series.Wanna play Ratchet and Clank and know about the relationships between Ratchet and Clank? Lol, go fuck yourself, 3 years since the game came out, still full price.Wanna play the literal PlayStation advert game where you get advertisements and introductions to PlayStation IPs? Why would they put something like that on another platform, they don't want to make money.But of course you can play The Last of Us fully. Complete with remasters, remakes, etc. And of course, Hulst, the co-founder of Guerilla is letting all the Horizon games straight onto PC, even though Horizon Hunters Gathering is going to be a total fucking bomb, and LEGO Horizon was a total fucking bomb too. Don't forget the Horizon Remaster.
>>739156082>Spiderman 2 selling as well as it did, despite also winning zero awards, for me is just the game farming the good will that the previous game hadBut it's sold to such a degree that it's as much as the original. The initial sales were just mediocre but it has had a long tail as far as we've seen so it can't just be the good will the previous game had since Miles does not get this same treatment be it on PS or PC and that's still solid. You can't even say Miles is the issue because he's half of Spidey 2.
>>739155126Played them, was disappointed, never want to touch them again. You could argue that it's a case of "greater than the sum of its parts" but the gameplay itself is a complete nothingburger.
>>739133604I usually shitting on frog poster... But I can't
>>739156082>Spiderman 2 selling as well as it did, despite also winning zero awardIt was a failure anonThey cancelled the dlc and multiplayerThe first game had 3 extensionsMaybe, I said maybe, peoples want to play Spider-man in a Spider-Man game, not miles morales, not metal gear solid Maryjane, not deaf black ugly girl, they want to play Spider-Man, they don't want to play a bike part, they don't want a date with a ugly mj, they want to be Spider-Man and fight crime in newyork
>>739156351You can cope as much as you want but the TPS gameplay mixed with Uncharted's signature movement did make it a competent and fun shooter that absolutely thrived on it's gameplay merits, not it's story. Heck Uncharted 1-3's story was always just a contrivance for cool set pieces.and gameplay sequences, the gameplay was more important than the story until Niel Druckmann took over for 4, Uncharted is not a movie game because gameplay is the focus even if it's "cinematic" gameplay, it's still gameplay.
>>739155097>"That rootie tootie shooty 4-player co-op fascist space guys game and the one with the hot chick cutting down monsters that combined we spent pennies on to publish have sold extremely well?">"Get Cuckman on the line, we need another $500 million dollar screaming dyke media-literate walking story game STAT!"
>>739155097>has begunThat's been happening since the middle of the PS4 era when they moved Playstation over to California and began imposing their own brand of censorship exclusively for Japanese games. It wasn't just about hot women but also shit like Future Gohan can't be shown with only one arm for some fucking reason.
>>739156442I honestly don't know what the fuck they were thinking with the MJ parts. Nobdoy and I mean nobody plays or watches anything related to spiderman and think, hmmm I really want to see his girlfriend who has no superpowers do things.
>>739133604Kek Fpbp
>>739156309>Ratchet and ClankI will hate them forever, for the movie (I'm french) they changed the official ratchet voice actor (the same guy dubbed it all since the first, every game, ps2, ps3, ps4, psp... Every game) for a youtuberI'm not joking, they took a fucking youtuber to be Ratchet instead of the official voice we knew for 15 years (and he's still is, still Ratchet in rift appart)
>>739133625Lmao
>>739156619Sony has not given a sole fuck about Europeans since like the PS2, they're the "tamed bitch" of consumers for them because of the PS1/PS2, believing that they're always going to be a majority of hardware in that region.Considering the PS3-PS5, they're not wrong.
>>739156309>play the 4th and 5th entry in the series.They're technically soft reboots so that's not that big of an issue.>Why would they put something like that on another platform, they don't want to make money.Because it's reliant on the DualSense to get the proper experience and is functionally a big tech demo to show off the PS5's capabilities, both Playroom and Astro Bot.Something to keep in mind is that they're only porting PS5 games, nothing from PS4, so that means you'd never get Ratchet 2016 or Uncharted 1-3 to begin with. You'd never get any LBP prior to SBA because LBP4 was on the PS4 and that's it. They don't seem to care that porting PS4 games would be easy.>>739156442>It was a failure anonIt was an initial failure. Current estimates are placing it at 15 million because it constantly kept selling just fine on PS5.>They cancelled the dlc and multiplayerMost of the thoughts about this point to Wolverine being a focus and the leak that spoiled all of their plans going forward. Keep in mind that we were supposed to get a Venom standalone game that deal with Cletus outside of the Spidey 2 DLC before Wolverine happened, and now both don't exist while Wolverine is looking like they reconsidered a lot of their options after the leak happened and people ragged on the crafting and health packs.
>>739156619Wait I checked itNo only they changed the official Ratchet va but also Clank, Qwark and Nefarious by little who actorsTHEY CHANGED THE OFFICIALS VOICE WE KNEW FOR 15 YEARS FOR A FUCKING YOUTUBER AND SOME ACTORS NOBODY CARE ABOUTI WANT THEM TO BURN
>Snoy would rather stick to their gay demographic than make good games that appeal to straight menThey even killed Helldivers 2, their only success for some reason.
>>739133604It's over
>>739156691And yet, I don't know a single soul who have a ps5Litteraly nobody, yet everyone had a ps3 during middle school but now ? NothingMy sister is in highschool and same, nobody is playing on ps5
>>739156702>estimatesLol, lmao evenNobody played that shit anon
>>739156702>They don't seem to care that porting PS4 games would be easyAnd ridiculously profitable in a market where spending little to get good guaranteed returns, in an era where more people than ever want to play updated titles and when we're in a remake/remaster craze, is the best thing they can do.Some might need to check if Hulst descends from the Hasburgs
>>739156821Delete this
>>739156717The game was too comfy for chuds larping as space fascists, come to think of, their successful games are always things they vehemently oppose to, hot women and (space)nazis.
>>739156619your fault for watching that garbage
>>739157025I didn't, it made less than 100,000 sales
>we're sony>we have decades of games rotting >we want to get big on pc>Should we sell those game for cheap and so give peoples a playstation experience to make them fan ?>NO>WE WILL SELL OUR MODERN CRAP>YOU WILL PLAY ONIONS-KRATOS>YOU WILL PLAY BLACK DEAF GIRL AND MILES MORALES
>>739157167>keep selling remakes and remasters>don't rerelease the countless exclusives they had for the PS3Why?
>>739133508>Only singleplayer titlesThat's a bummer, they should expand this to online titles, nobody wants more concords, maratroons and fairgames on PC.
>>739157196Because it means they would have to make an internal PS3 emulator which they don't have and would be tested on the PS5 first before that ever happened. Their PS2 emulator is already buggy and they constantly have to keep updating their PSP and PS1 games running off of emulators on PS4/PS5 because of various issues present from the emulation.
>>739133850this approach only works because they're not console makers but the fact that Sony thinks they can reverse course when they havent put out a good game in atleast 10 years is laughable, its literally too late, the schlock they been piddling is falling flat because people dont care.
>>739157167Hmm should we make a new Jak, Ratchet, Sly, Parappa, Gravity Rush, Bloodborne, Demon's Souls, Wild Arms, Twisted Metal, or maybe something else?No way, we can't do any of that.
>>739157451Eh I kinda feel like the benefits would outweigh the costs even in that case since that's a strong lineup to sell consoles.
>>739157670There's rumors the PS6 might have PS3 BC in some form, but The Power of the Cell™ is likely why they don't want to touch it with a ten foot pole even if they can just license RPCS3 if they really wanted.
>>739157728That makes sense, imagine they announce a PS6 with every PS3 exclusive from Little Big Planet and Killzone and Infamous and Resistance all available. Would be a strong sales pitch.
>>739157167We already have all of their games from back when they any on PC though.
>>739156717Helldivers 2 has been consistently good since release, with the one caveat being various levels of bugs and crashes holding it back.
>>739144176>nearly 1.5 billion people in china>a few hundred million who speak simple chinese and their language isn't supportedwow what a surprise that lots of people use chinese?the fact that the chinese steam version is separate and doesn't show up for sales data or players and other metrics on steam means that steams largest population isn't even having its data shown.its the same reason you keep seeing lots of jeets postingthere is a billion of the fuckers
>>739154720>>739154473>>739154613>NO IT ISNT BECAUSE FF16 ONLY SOLD 3 MILLION AND REBIRTH SOLD BELOW THAT, IT'S JUST SQUARE ENIX BEING RIDICULOUS! In what world is that good sales for a triple A game? Stop coping faggots
>>739158913>AAAFinal Fantasy isn't AAA, FF16 is the most expensive FF ever and it's made on less than half what usual AAA slop is made on.
>>739133508Understandable. Sony doesn't want to get trashed by PC players, because they're not perpetual shit eaters. And despite what EGS saar shills think, EGS exclusivity is only going to be a detriment for reputation, and Sony clearly understands this.
I'm only upset because of Saaros but Returnal is better so whatever.
>>739133508
>>739152353I concur

>>739134630Schreier's razer: If it is strictly about games releasing or not releasing it is true; if it is a game review or assessment of game quality it is jewed.
>>739158913>In what world is that good sales for a triple A game?I mean people wouldn't shut up about how much of a roaring success E33 and Crimson Desert were when they hit that number. Oh no wait don't tell me, those are (((((indie titles))))).
>>739135498>GenshinNot just Genshin although they are significant. It is primarily a Fortnite and GTA online console. Fortnite generates more revenue on playstation than any other platform. Playstation is the premier gaas paypig platform. They just have had zero success supplying an in house gaas game.
is that new ratchet and clank game good?
>>739133604fpbp lmao
>>739136365The fans and buyers they convert with cheap sale games show up for future installment titles at launch and pay full price. RE9 did not deserve the amount of launch sales it generated. It only got that number because of the aggressive sale strategy.

>>739133508I wouldn't be surprised if Sony and Microsoft jump towards just making full on digital platforms of their own within the next gen or two and just cutting out the middleman, the bar for 'being too retarded to put together electronic legos' constantly gets lower and lower
we did it bros
>>739160357Sony may, Xbox won't exist by then with Microsoft either being a publisher or licensing out their IPs.

Cool you gave pc beggars literally every game then made nothing but cancelled live service slop for 10 years and closed good studios now im supposed to care about 1 gay game a year yeah fuck off not getting ps6 at launch
>>739133508I haven't been so much as mildly interested in a Playstation game since Ghost of Tsushima. The console sells because normies get it to play FIFA on their couch. Nobody gives a shit about their exclusives.
>>739160357What do you mean? What are PSN and Xbox/Microsoft Store if not full-on digital platforms?
>>739156057>zoomer brain retardHe linked an interview with one of the dudes behind the third-party company behind porting PS1 and PS2 games to PS4--PS5 PSN, too much goes into it to make it not worth it for either the porters nor the publisher 90% of the time, it's why publishers go full remake or at least non-emulation remaster more often than not. You have a child's understanding if you think porting old games is effortless
>>739135694except Helldiver 2 or Marathon, for some reasons.

>>739133850The difference is people actually want to play those games and thus buy them.
