He can call names all he wants that won't make better the business, if COD on gamepass doesn't add a substancial number of users to gp that strategy and him are done. Tic tac Spencer LOL.

World's favorite liar.

Nice xbox show but let's be hones if that conference was a PS conference A LOT of people would be saying:

• ANOTHER game with a female protagonist? (there were 4)
• Where are the dates of the games for this year?
• A turn based game?
• More souls like games?
• This is CGI, I don't want CGI!
• Great, more services ...
• MY EXCLUSIVE IN THEIR CONSOLE!!!

Again, it was a good show, I liked a lot of games but people act like they would be fine with it when they would be complaining either way.

The movement and flow of the combos is very Ninja Gaiden so I'm SOLD. It's a chinese developer so the development could last forever buy the fact they are in a tour means they are close, not this year obviously.

The point of exclusivity is to add value to your console and also increase competition, the thing is Nintendo stopped being direct competition to Sony since the wii. The same way people talk about AstroBot saying "It looks great BUT NOT something I would pay for" most Switch users would say the same about games like Returnal or GOW so this move isn't taking any value from your console and has the potential to actually add value.

Between a situation where a pc only user plays this and buys a ps5 and a switch only user doing the same I would bet on the second one. That's why the game won't be on xbox, because xbox IS their competition.

I like the "We're not trying to build a low cost PC" line because it's true, buying a console is more than not having enough money for a pc. People who buy a console should do it because it means something, if that something is being able to play certain games or having the "cool" piece of metal it doesn't matter, any console should be more than a box that runs games.

And I absolutely LOVE the line about that one video with the pc for $500 "better" than a ps5 because is something I thought at the exact moment they specify the parts.

"They had to get a used motherboard, that was the only way that they could build a PlayStation 5 equivalent for a PlayStation 5 price. And if you're using used parts… well you can get a used PlayStation 5 for eBay for $300-something"

LOL, techbros think they are very smart and some of them are actually smart but most of their content targets people they know they can fool.

Xbox logo doesn't appear at the end of the trailer.
Media on twitter: "Sony is paying for this event, unbelievable"

Don't give Sony credit they don't deserve, the series S can delay games all by its own without help lol.

@JackiePriest larian kind of did, series s doesn't have local co op, before that it was a politic of publishing on xbox that both versions had to be equal but they had to fold because BG3 was too big of a game.

I remember playing a lot of Quidditch world cup back in the ps2 so this is really nice.

@Toot1st i'm sure they will cry of frustration when Marathon is out and makes them money on xbox, the same way MLB microtransactions do every year LOL.

Spencer: I don't see how Helldivers 2 not being on xbox helps the industry.

Sony: Is he saying he doesn't want our LEGO Horizon game on xbox? Ok!

😂😂😂

The ultra violence of TLOU2 should be fun to watch. We live in a world were we have actually good vg adaptations and the most important questions of this new age are who is going to be Kratos? and is Tom Holland going to be Link or not? LOL

@twitchtvpat probably because Sony didn't offer them money or square was asking too much for a 6 year old game (they already are, 60 for this game is crazy).

HBO The Last of Us season 2, why would they release it before that?

@HonestHick it's funny that you say that because A LOT of people with a pc has a ps5 and every time a new ps5 exclusive comes out there is more people buying a ps5. So no, obviously the strat of they are going to buy a ps5 for sure is not going to work but the fact that they have this ready and it isn't out yet means they weren't actually serious when they said that, they only said that to not say "Yeah well, Sony economy depends on hardware and has been depending on ps hardware since 2013 when we almost go bankrupt so if posible we want to keep selling consoles". They already know games cost too much (even when they aren't losing money, they just aren't making billions back) but what are they going to do? Cancel the games they already have started to start cheaper games from 0? That's just not going to happen ... a lot of time will pass before watching any kind of change there.

Also i think is cool pc players can wait, having the confidence to be alive in two years to play a game or to be alive 8 more years to play any game day one in this world that can end any day. That must be nice. I don't have that confidence so buying the cheap, weak and limited box to play the games I actually want to play without waiting doesn't sound like a terrible idea LOL.

I know a lot more about software production than hardware but is way too soon. Portal is basically the proof people will buy it and Lenovo making disposable handhelds means Sony has the economy to do so, but it's WAY too early.

@UltimateOtaku91 I don't think Mana will, kind of feels SE thinks it is going to sell a lot but who knows. I would add a trailer of something 14 related, making sure you remember is on xbox now, you have to pay 2 subscriptions but it's there lol.

Probably going to be in the xbox presentation given they aren't listed in Summer event thing. Better take the gamepass bag before COD kills it lol.

@vyseofhr vgs aren't basic needs so I would say no one "needs" it. But sure a lot of people would buy it just because they want to.

@LifeGirl capcom is doing great, square enix isn't lol. The only reason they aren't firing people in Japan is because it's ilegal to do it suddenly but they sure are firing people in other countries and making Forspoken 2 for the Nintendo Switch 2 won't help their situation.

This part of life is what i call HAPPINESS, LET'S GO

@OldGamer999 but that's because you bought a ps5 only no b*tch about it we all know that LOL.

I see we are in OVEREACTION FRIDAY! Rich Elsen would be proud.

Who exactly build the brand tho? The old guys who played crash and spiro? The old guys who played ratchet and gow? The old guys who played uncharted and infamous? Or the soon to be old guys who played Horizon and Ghost of Tsushima?

We knew for more than 3 years they were making services, we know they cancelled half those services, were they supposed to not release the other half? People expect for Capcom to present a Resident Evil on sony shows every year?

Nah the show was bad but let's don't get it wrong. This isn't a shift, they just don't have anything to show yet and when they finally do either later this year or next year (because their goal is to increase first party revenue for 2025) people will forget about this and will celebrate and act like everything is perfect.

Completely Stellar. Sony let them cook for real.

I t won't be, they literally say new future content like characters will be free, f2p games don't do that.

It's a shame actually because a 5v5 game of this kind most likely doesn't hold a chance with a price tag vs other games like the Marvel game presented in the very same show. S*cks but not every service can be a hit, that's how the industry works, hopefully it gets a playerbase like Paladins or TF2.

One way or another they will end up making an account.

Don't want to? Don't buy the games. Want to review bomb a single player game? You need to but the game first and don't return it LOL. If Sony was desperate for that money the requirement wouldn't be there and "bad" sales (people are going to buy this yes or yes cry rivers included) will help the current strat to not change.

@BusyOlf lol so now it matter what version gets the "attention"? Fighting games sell the most on console but the pc version gets the attention because that community will last the longest. Madden is on pc but all the big tournaments are on console.

What version gets the most attention means nothing.
Porting old games to psv2 now that's actually a good idea.

@UltimateOtaku91 they have realistic expectations so don't worry. There was a difference in how they presented games between the Days gone fiasco and Returnal selling only 500k being a success enough to buy the studio.

They know this won't sell a lot because as you can see there is no enough demographic. If you want to be worried about a studio you can worry about MediaMolecule lol. Those guys were the next in line to execution

This game looks FANTASTIC and it was announced the same year it will the released.

Now I hope all the people who always remember how
-Sony shut down JapanS (even when no one said thank you for keeping the last guardian alive for what felt like a decade)
-How Sony should be more like Nintendo
-How Sony needs smaller games

Actually buy this beautiful game.

This note should be the center of news in this website, not whatever reaction Sammy is going to write.

Wasn't expecting anything and:
-Concord looks like something I can enjoy
-New Dynasty Warriors
-Path of exile
-Astrobot looks nuts

And the most important part Concord and Astrobot are games for this year.

Actually impressed for how visually good this is but gameplay and level design will be everything.

@trev666 You are talking about a console dude not an accessory, portal is an accessory.

No expectations besides me wanting Concord to look fun.

I know I'm in the minority here but I think the fact that they are doing a show for games to be released on 2024 should be celebrated.

Concord and Astrobot are the must for the show because Billbil doesn't miss.

No PS5Pro. That is going to be for the next half of the year (probably september like with the ps4 pro) and I actually expect for the big first party games for 2025 and beyond to be revealed with the pro not in this SoP.

XDEV made a tweet teasing their work is going to be there so a new or existent big partnership is on the way. I wish it won't be another SE game, those guys aren't wort it.

Looking at the fact that Hellblade 2 sold between 60k and 80k copies on steam, whoever is waiting for that on ps5 may have what they want very soon.

@jFug I don't see how art direction makes something lazy but the games you're talking about were made by teams. This game is in the making by just one dev lol so it could be a metroidvania, pixel art game inspired by dark souls and still couldn't be identified as lazy.

@jFug we know of 3 games that will be revealed in june. concord, astrobot and an indie game partnered with ps so is either a show or a big presence at summer games.

This manga deserved way more than the anime they ended up getting.

If this is a ps5 game and not a psvr game then this will be awesome. Let's just forget about the waste that is vr gaming and ride the steamdeck train with a new disposable handheld.

@OldGamer999 then you bought a ps5 only to b*tch about it. I wish to have that kind of spare money LOL.

Genshin is already one of those "too big to fail" franchises like COD. It can't be killed, but that doesn't mean that a very similar game can't make money between Genshin big updates.

@GamingFan4Lyf It's waaay more simple than that dude. MS paid for that version LOL.

That version came out at the time when Xbox wanted to show "they have japanese games too" and somehow cared about Japan. That version can't be updated for PC or PS because SNK counts it as a whole different piece of software, it even has a different publisher than the original. SNK probably didn't invest to port the new version to other systems because they were already working in something else and they aren't that big, also it's unclear if the contract with MS would allow it. It wasn't until the Saudis bought 100% of SNK that they shifted to the idea of reworking not so old games with new multiplayer tech.

But no, it wasn't because how PS works, if that was the case the pc version should support 120, it came out just a couple months before the series x ver but it doesn't.

It's still mind blowing that Ronin is selling more than the Nioh franchise in the same time frame. It's even better than thanks to those numbers they are going to open a new studio.

It's funny that KT and Shift up are growing thanks to their partnership with Sony and then there is Square ... the difference? The public perception. KT has a divisive reputation but those who like KT games buy them for what they are. SE now has a bad reputation so even when the games are good people don't want them.

I liked the announcement for a new animation technology, people can hate as much as they want buy Sony develops very good stuff.

Also in the questions section some japanese dude asked if they think owning original anime IP are as important as PlayStaytion IPs. They didn't answer sh*t lol so basically no they aren't interested in building and animation studio of their own BUT in reality they have been part of the production of some successful anime. Kimetsu no Yaiba may not be animated or owned by Sony but they pay a part and publish lol. Buddy daddies and Lycoris Recoil are animes they also paid for so they may not be interested in their own studio and making their own anime but they made good investments in the department lately.

Ngl when they put the "Game engine" in the presentation I was like "Oh sh*t are they going to release an engine?" and then Unreal appeared and I remembered they own a piece of Epic ...

And they put down the head and said "I'm sorry" to those toxic players then ask for permission to release content LOL.

I really wish they understand the best way to release content is with updates that have dates. Random drops are nice for the people who is playing at that specific time but they don't generate hype and hype is healthy for service games. The reason why Destiny has been thriving for more than a month is because people know they are going to have a big update in June.

I would hate if they drop the Illuminate and literally no one knows it happened because it was a shadow drop.

MS CEO: And then I took it personally.

@tselliot I don't see coop superiority over single player in this game to be honest, is a survivor so the only difference probably is making things faster??? It feels like a lot of situations in the game work better playing solo because they are designed for you to do everything to stay alive. If the game clicks with you I don't see the necessity to even think in playing online, actually is quite the contrary. A lot of people enjoying the game but they are playing in a shared server, they log out and some mofos mess with their things, that can be funny with friend but everything is funny with friends so it doesn't represent the value of coop.

I really thought they wouldn't because if there is a game most people who play vg are up to pay for is COD, $70 each player on pc and xbox .... but hey this is WAY better than being "right" this is history lol. If COD can't make people join gamepass nothing will.
