Good luck reaching 18 million units by the end of the next fiscal year.

The best Harry Potter game for me was Lego Harry Potter, beeing able to explore block Hogwards was incredible, and for me it´s still the best LEGO game ever made.
But I´m also very curious about this game. It´s a single player experience or its multiplayer?

Already pre-ordered, I never had the chance to play these games, so I´m really curious, people say a lot of good things about them.

I personally would prefer a Jak and Daxter 4.. haha.. The Last of Us 1 is awesome already.

Or an Uncharted sequel game with Chloe, or Nathan´s brother.

@Bismarck Your comment was lost in the middle of other topics, just saw it now.

I never said I hate play on PC, I just said I don´t like it, and I even play on there ocasionally. The reasons? I dont know, this separation of Console gamers and PC gamers is as old as the game industry. But for me, lets see.

1 - It´s cheaper, I don´t need to buy a PC (which is awesome) because I won`t use it for anything else besides play games.I have a laptop with a very mediocre configuration so I can acess internet and work, so thats enough for me;
2 - I´m a Playstation fanboy (in the good way), so the satisfaction of buy the latest Sony console it´s something that I think is shared with a lot of people in this website, I cant explain. But a like to see my gamer history throught the console, my trophies, watch Crunchyroll, talk to friends, and play the latest exclusives games.
3 - This is something I think its slowly ending, but I´m a collector, so I like to see my games on my shelf, in physical format. I miss the days of the big box on PC, I still have my Monkey Island 3 on display in my room.

But your explanation of course makes complete sense, in the end I think that the price is the primary factor for console gaming, and second the exclusives.

@SplooshDmg yeah, but then you should argue who is the agressor, and that depends on who you ask.

Thats why I think the path choose by Sony was correct.

@Sakisa The United States is one of the most divided countries in the world, I dont think injecting american politics into a worldwide company is a recipe for sucess. Whats the problem with a neutral instance in this subject? A neutral response in a videogame company shouldnt be considered an outrage. Your response stating that you dont need to hear someones opinion on this is proof that Sonys decision was correct.

Well, millions and millions of people dont really like to play on PCs (me included), so I think consoles are needed for now. If in the future one company decides to abandon the console market, I think it will be Microsoft. Soon their subscription plataform will be played on tvs as an app, so if any company ever decides to abandon this market, it will not be Sony.

@Apfelschteiner @Apfelschteiner personally, I would not care one bit, for me the acquisition would be more a defensive move than trying to limit acess from games to the competition.

About the other comment, I agree completely. Sony is a worldwide plataform, and should respect the opinions of everyone, even the ones they don´t agree. Bungie should do as they please, as long as they dont disrespect this company policy.

@Andee hahaha.. Yeah, some of those names are really stupid, aren`t they.. but to be fair, the developers at that time are almost entirely Japanese, so for any non english speaking person, the name ends up being cool..

They need to stop milking FFVII (they wont) and give some love to VIII (they wont), a sequel 25 years in the future with a new generation of students, one of them beeing Squall´s kid, would be great.

I´m only interested in the Extra tier for now, here in Brazil we won´t have PS3 games in the Premium.

hahaha.. that was pretty funny and somewhat accurate.. but come on! The PS1 had better movement and graphics than this.. slightly.

Nice, the first week after this will be a good week to win some crowns against Xbox and Switch gamers! ;b

Jeff "Sony is buying Square" Grubb?

Maybe SLG are helping funding the complete collection? Wonder Boy games have seen a ressurgence, but are still very niche games. I just dont get why 2000 units, I get that its called Strickly Limited Games, but they should do like LRG, a 6 weeks period of sales for some games.

They should have distanced themselves from the games and made something with different characters, smaller, without the giant CGI monsters. A soft live action reboot like Resident Evil 7 was for the games. Maybe in a mansion or.. a creepy Village?

Looks bad.. but on par with others recent RE adaptations.

After seeing the new adaptations, I realize that at least the first 2 movies with Milla are miles better, with time I can see this films becoming cult classics.

After more than 100 hours on AC Valhalla, think I´m in the mood for a little puzzle game, but still undecided between this game or LEGO Builders.

I know its a dumb game, but its incredibily fun and one of my favorites for the past year.
I think the only one with more hours played on my ps4 its Stardew Valley, which for me its one of the best games for the past decade, me and my wife love that game.

@Rural-Bandit Motorstorm would be fantastic in the PS5!

@MarcG420 absolutelly, you´re right!

@get2sammyb good point!

@MarcG420 Yeah, I don´t know really. Maybe you´re right. And Sony must know what they´re doing. But on the other hand, they already help financially and already hold some exclusivity in some games, for example, Final Fantasy XVI. I wouldn't mind if some of these were day one on the platform. I say this more to attract people to the new Plus, and mitigate a little of this day one subject. I particularly always buy my games in physical media, even after playing them on PSN in the monthly selection, when I like them, so Im not complaining, I'm satisfied with what sony is doing.

We´re talking about Sony first party exclusive games, and Sony has a clear strategy about this, but I cant see why third party games, like Assassins Creed, or Resident Evil, cant be day one on plus.

Major IP: Dragon Age 4
Partner Title: Unravel 3 (yes, please)
Remake: Mass Effect Adromeda
Sports Title: ?

It took years for EA to refine the game and reach that point. Its not just "well I have the name, it should be enough". Its a risk move, because if FIFA delivers a worst game, which its almost certain, they will only hurt the brand. It seens they dont really accepted well EAs decision.

They should have called it Fefa:

Football
Entertainment for
Fans
Around the World

@Ninjadeath2023 Yeah, I have played them when they launched for the PS3, really awesome games, Asylum beeing my favorite! Very creepy. It´s the last one, Arkham Knight, that I still haven´t played. It´s in my shelf for at least 4 years, maybe its time I give it a chance.

Wow, the end of an era! I still have my Snes copy of Fifa 95, its crazy to think that we won´t have another Fifa (in the name), at least for EA!

@Voltan Thank you!!

@LiamCroft Oh Ok, thank you for answering!

Looks really cool, I know I´m late, but I havent played Batman Arkham Knight yet. Is this game a sequel? Or is in another universe?

So, the Destroy Ending is the canon one, uh.

@johncalmc Not on the same level, but Stardew Valley, Im looking at you!

Important news. The jump from 11 to 18 million is impressive, I think they will sell PS5 with a little less profit, maybe paying more for the chip suplier, but whatever the reason, the most important thing for Sony strategy, as I said in another post, is to put those machines out.

What a beautiful box!

This is important news: "aiming to ship another 18 million units in FY 2022"

Maybe they reach an agreement with the chip manufacturer? Will pay above the market price so they can improve manufacturing? I dont know, but for Sony´s strategy, they really need to put those machines out.

I don't even understand anything about game programming, but as a commentary about the game, two years to make this seems like a lot. It's essentially just a bunch of mayonese jars dressed up in cosplay. haha

I know it´s probably only online multiplayer, but who knows. I´m always looking forward to some game with couch coop to play with friends, drinking beer, laughing and having a good time.

@Gaia093 Yeah, same. Imagine visiting real world locations at different time periods. Really cool if possible! Or another planet!

@OrtadragoonX I agree with you about the new trilogy, The only difference its that its a lot more "open world" than Uncharted, with a little metroidvania included. What I really liked about Tomb Raider was that feeling of the PS1 era, that sense of discovery, just you and gigantic temples, tombs and caves. I just dont agree when you said that the new TB is super dark, I always tought of the games to be super dark in my opinion, more serious than Uncharted.

But if somehow someone manage to bring back those PS1 era TR feelings, sense of discovery, puzzle solving type of games, for me it will always be better than the blockbuster nature of Uncharted. But its just my opinion and personal taste.

But Uncharted is also fantastic, dont get me wrong, I was blown away with Uncharted 2, beeing 4 my favorite (really a fan of pirates). For me this a franchise that should have 8, 9 games, its fantastic, but unfortunaly I think Naughy Dog isnt interested.

@Fenbops Yeah, I dont like it either, but I think Microsoft forced Sony to make some defensive moves with this recently megaton purchases for Xbox, even the stocks fell in that period.

I agree they are a californian tech firm now, we can only hope that they realize they need Japan again and let them do their thing. Especially without censorship.

@OrtadragoonX I think its Uncharted that it is Tomb Raider with a dude.. haha.. I actually prefer Tomb Raider over Uncharted, despite been a massive fan of Nathan Drake. Plus, Lara Croft was one of the images of Playstation for a long time. But seriously, I just dont think Naughty Dog is interested in making more of this games.

@BRT15 They will need to move Abstergo from Montreal to California. Jim will be the supreme leader of the Order.

@Abeedo Yeah, this SquareEnix Acquisition will only makes sense if Sony allow the eastern devs freedom, the westernization of the brand, for me personally, its a low point on Sony.

On the other hand, if Sony dont buy Square, I can´t see much future for the company, given the last results.

Makes sense. I still think passing on Tomb Raider was strange (legacy, movies, brand recognition) but I think it was to avoid FTC.

If true, really nice to see Cloud finally a officially Sony character, goes straight to the banner.

Its a nice defensive move, WB games and Capcom should be next.

Realistically, I think Resident Evil VIII, Half Life and GT7 (just like the article).

I also hope, personally, for some game in space or below water, I dont care if its a "game game", or a walking simulator. Just give me my immersion.

I also dream for Silent Hills VR. OR a remake of the first one, first person and VR compatible.

Bonus game: Drunken Bar Fight 2 (yes).

Deliver us the Moon gameplay was meh for me, hope they improve on this aspect. But the graphics, the view walking on top of the moon was really cool. Looking forward to the sequel.

Awesome news! I didn´t like XV that much, high expectations for this one. Can´t wait to talk to Cid, fight a Cactuar and ride a Chocobo.

I would like to see a spin off with the bizarre leaked Sonic from the first film, an abandoned Sonic from another universe, becomes a villain and try to conquer the multiverse.
