EVIL-C

Absolutely zero personal interest in AC. 🤷‍♂️

It was the garbage music and the ridiculous character design.

Change that, and Ubi will have a solid hit with this. We all want to see the Prince return.

Largely forgettable? Pfft, says you, Sammy. 🤮 SotD was fantastic.

@Casco A lot of people really don't understand semantics. You buy a physical object, you own the object itself, not the data within. That's quite clear. Everyone should move on.

@Fight_Teza_Fight Don't knowingly commit crimes next time then. I'm happy to see white collar crime punished. That's what we need more of.

None of them. 🤷‍♂️

Just give us a new TLoU or UC. Skip the multiplayer crap.

Dead on arrival. Sony loves to copy Nintendo, and yet still they haven't got a clue. Stick with Switch and Steamdeck.

I can take my Switch (or a Steamdeck) anywhere and play my entire library because it doesn't require WIfi. it will be laggy AF, or drain your data in minutes.

FFS, Sony hasn't got a clue...

Lol, keep dreaming, corporate goons. 😂
You think Sony could earn 1 billion dollars on a God of War film, or open a popular theme park? Doubtful.
No doubt Nintendo and Sony are the top gaming brands, but corporate goons will always suck themselves off 24/7 and make up delusional BS.

@RonnieL Its all the exact same money at the end of the day, which is all these companies care about. They don't differentiate between who made what, who purchased whom, etc... Leave that for gamers and fanboys alike to scream at each other about online. You may be shocked to learn this, but Sony nor any other firm doesnt give an eff about you.

@Tr3mm0r You spoke to and surveyed 99% of all PS owners? Lol, suuuure... You missed at least one.

@GeeEssEff What a copout. "If its not equal, the criticism doesn't count"?. Oh please. Thanks for confirming my point about fanboys.

@pip_muzz Sony fanboys ultimately lose nothing in this deal. Trashy COD stays, Nintendo (finally) will receive COD again, and if anything, it might spur Sony to acquire more themselves, which no one around here ever cries when Sony buys out a studio. Hmm, how funny....

Yet more evidence of how braindead Muskrat is.

@NinjaNicky LOL, beyond ignorant and stupid on every conceivable level. The amount of effort that goes into something like Mario odyssey, breath of the wild, Metroid Prime 4, Xenoblade Chronicles 3, Bayonetta 3,to name a few, are well worth comparable pricing. But alas, this is a Sony hardcore site. 🤷‍♂️

@TrillionTears Sony would drop this thing faster than the Vita. It's an objectively awful idea. They can't even get the psvr2 off to a strong start. This has nothing to do with Xbox, either. The derangement from Sony fans is ridiculous. If PlayStation is so perfect, why do so many Sony fans care what the competition is doing? Talk about an insecure mindset.

A fool and his money are soon parted.

@Phornix I broke down and got TLOU Remake despite having the original and remaster, just to have something both "exclusive" and appealing to play. I couldn't care less about GT7, GOW, and haven't played Horizon. Sony and MS both have significant albiet different issues with exclusives.

@Yaycandy Hahahaha, "for what is right", my ass. 😂
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_acquisitions_by_Sony

Look at all the game companies Sony has bought up, who thus make exclusives... for Sony.... thus tied to one device. 😲😲😲 Take a class on business and learn about corporate acquisitions. Sony are the sore crybabies here.

High price, not BWC, small library, no PC support. Not surprising at all why this thing is not selling.

This is encouraging. I wish to see Konami return to form and re-discover their roots. Hoping for SH2 to be a success. 🙏❤

Hopefully the low sales will encourage Sony to patch it for PC usage. Then that would be an excellent deal/value.

@Neverwild That's much too general of a statement. Many individuals have issues with large companies like MS buying studios out directly to secure exclusives. While I far prefer the Xbox platform nowadays, I am very wary of these large buyouts. If Sony buys out Square (whom I typically can't stand 90% of their games but that's just me) I will not be jumping for joy, nor was I at MS buying Bethesda (and seemingly Activision).

@Bondi_Surfer Agreed about Burnout Paradise at the time. Most racers don't need to be open world. Modern game design is obsessed with this.

I would say just make some changes for each individual version and tailor it to the hardware it's being made for. There's still millions of players combined using Switches, PS4s and Xbones.

@nomither6 You sure love the word over-rated a lot. I guarantee if it was the Sony Switch, you would love it. In 2017, the Switch was very capable. You're looking at it with 2023 eyes. I remember how absolutely awful the Vita ports of Borderlands 2 and RE Revelations 2 are, but on Switch they played great, as just two examples. Why does the Steamdeck get a free pass when it is "underpowered", compared to a decent gaming laptop, yet Switch is somehow so terrible and awful, deserving no credit for any of its capabilities?

Wasn't the Wii U already bare-bones in terms of library and features? So then how is the Switch also barebones? Wasn't the Wii U basically a living room DS conceptually, a handheld you claim to love? The DS too was also "underpowered" at the time, yet it's one of the greatest, coolest handhelds ever.

Your logic makes no sense.

Now you're arguing personal preferences between devices. Controller shape, library, button layout, etc... You're not right or wrong, it's just individual preference. Nothing here is constructive at all.

@nomither6 You can doubt all you want, but while the Vita was a complete embarrassment from a 1st party software perspective, the Switch was everything and more than Sony was ever able to deliver on.
PSP, meh, I never owned one. Granted it did a lot of cool stuff at the time, but I personally never found the games appealing enough, and why buy a watered down port with 1 analog stick, when the PS2 version was the full experience. And those memory sticks...ouch... a pricy problem that plagued both Sony handhelds.

You can thank the existence of the very awesome Steamdeck (its literally the same design as Switch, sans joycons), and the explosion of other powerful, console-quality handhelds, to the proven appeal, incredible software library. smashing sales success, and highly rated consumer reception, to the Switch's existence.

@get2sammyb I meant court case. The legal matter currently going over the purchase of Activision-Blizzard by Microsoft.

@nomither6 The Steamdeck exists BECAUSE of Switch, it's popularity, and what Nintendo did for handheld gaming in general.

Good! Enjoy the L, Sony. This has been a pathetic joke of a lawsuit this entire time.

Also, fire Jim Ryan. Useless, petty exec.

@Deoxyr1bose Konami is only hated so much because they've turned their backs on their classic IPs (and most gaming in general) in recent years.

Now, if gamers want to prove that they themselves are not hypocrites, if Silent Hill 2's remake is really good, shouldn't they put their hatred aside and pick up the game and support it, which in turn would generate profit and show Konami "Oh, people actually want this, let's make more"?

OT: Barring it being a total disaster, inject this into me on day one, please. Can't wait. SH2 is the best. ❤

Finally something I can credit Sony for. I like the fact that at least with some of these retro games like Syphon Filter, you can buy them outright (like the old PS3 store) and not have to rely on a subscription. I should give siphon filter a try as I like spy games, and there's a disturbing lack of them in the modern era.

The addition of the first party trophies is also nice, if you care about those things.

@naruball 3DS is/was a hell of a lot cheaper than a PS5. That says something. A 3DS was borderline impulse-buy. I think little of Sony nowadays (for various reasons); as a company they're insufferable and fandom hypocracy is pure toxicity, but I own it for the desirable exclusives, cause at the end of the day I'm a gamer. Fanboys suck across the board, don't GAF about any of them.

Ugh, you'll lose even more of my business Sony, if you start pushing NFTs hard. 🤮

@Rmg0731 As well as lack of regulations (thanks chump 🍊).

@PlatinumKing If one is a fan, of course. Duh.

@PlatinumKing We haven't had a new 007 game in nearly 11 years. Hitman has been on a steady streek for years, it can spare some time off.

Yet compared to PS3 and 4, 5 has an absolutely abysmal user interface. 🤮 Patch that, Sony.

Finally a reason to attend church, lol. 😂😈

@tselliot XSX and PS5, to be precise. 🧐

Still rocking Sony's arrogance from the PS3 days? 😉

Sony (likely) paying for exclusivity is highly suspect. 🤔

A perfect analogy of capitalism; harm the environment to seek profit, over-produce stuff that is no longer wanted nor profitable, and then don't even donate them for free when no one wants the excess, just shove it underground, consequences be damned. Its not even these toys specifically, it's the entire mindset that leads to this waste. Shameful to all involved.

@zebric21 Overpay? Are you serious? That's your best counter to me spending my own money on things I like? I buy these devices because I'm a gamer, genius. Shocking revelation, I'm sure. 🙃

If anything, your post reeks of jealousy. Or you think everything else is beneath Emperor God King PlayStation. Or both. Whatever. 😂

@zebric21 LOL, all platforms are my platforms. Playing Metroid Dread on Switch, GoldenEye on Xbox and Metro Exodus on PS5. I'm not a fanboy. 😉

Also, last I checked, Xbox has plenty of so-called "AAA" titles. I don't know what sadder, your ignorance or that you still use that antiquated, subjective, meaningless descriptor. 😂

Couldn't give less of a **** about this clown, but anything new related to Vice City is worth investigating. I hope we get a complete remake one day.

I've been dying to see for years the money Sony has paid for exclusive games and other content deals. Remember Soul Caliber 3 being a PS2 exclusive, despite 2 selling best on Gamecube?

Then there's the COD exclusive stuff.

Edit: Street Fighter 5, same deal. Randomly (console) exclusive for seemingly no reason.

FF16 being exclusive has been incredibly suspect since day 1, as well as Silent Hill 2's ambiguous situation at the moment.

Sony has a lot of secrets to answer for. They have a stellar track record of seemingly trying to buy exclusive content. Pushsquare, its hyper-partisan cringworthy staff, and the vocal hardcore base here say nothing, yet when M$ does it, suddenly it's evil, terrible and wrong? GMAFB. And keep in mind, I generally dislike massive corporate takeovers, but if its going to happen, at least apply a consistent ideological position, regardless of who's acting suspect.

@riceNpea "As for hate, that's in your head."

Delusion is in yours. 😳

@riceNpea Based on what I've read here for years, not at all. 😜
