Not true at all.
Jimmy just wants your 70, yeah sales would take a dip but having these on day one would mean more subs to the service so the games make money another way.
@middyone If $70 was equal to £70 yes, but its not.
We are paying the equivelent to almost $100 per game, thats a $30 difference for the same thing.
How would you feel if games jumped from $60 to $100 for you but the UK still payed $60?
I feel burned by this game still after they essentially made us pay full price for the beta version. I'll get it whenever it drops to the price you can pick up The Witcher 3 now.
The only bad thing is because most of those Horizon sales were PS5 Sony UK will continue to rip off its users with the direct $70-£70 conversion. I feel this is a missed opportunity to show them we demand a fair exchange all because some users wanted that shiny white box.
I'm still playing Arceus while waiting for Elden Ring and Triangle Stratagy so too much good stuff around it I'm afraid. I will probably pick it up April because March is also kinda stacked.
@QBGaming12 Sony getting Atlus would be the death of any creativity they have. No way would they see the 800k SMTV sold as a success so they'd be forced to pump out Persona and Persona spin-offs till the end of time.
I hope both stay the hell away from Japanese devs, they're both too West focussed. I don't fancy Sony pulling what they did to Japan Studio with Atlus.
I just hope they stay the hell away from SEGA. I don't fancy them shutting down Atlus if SMT "only" sells 1 million copies. Or worse force them to abandon all creativity and only make Persona games.
I didn't, I probably would have considered it if I hadn't already played these pretty recently and it didn't come out the same day as Pokemon. I felt something new was a better option.
Just buy an Xbox too, they're pretty cheap if you go the digital only route and Gamepass means you get pretty much all first party stuff day of release for the price of a Netflix Sub. I play on all three systems so none of this bothers me too much.

Re: Rumour: PS Plus PS5, PS4 Games for April 2022 Leaked Early
Pretty good month, three games I wanna play but not enough to pay for them which is perfect for PS+ really.
Re: UK Sales Charts: Tiny Tina's Wonderlands Settles for Second as Kirby Conquers
@Enuo No, not "rite" at all.
Re: Round Up: Tiny Tina's Wonderlands Reviews Reveal a Refreshing Take on Borderlands Formula
@Dreamcaster-X £70 for anything is a wait for a sale for me.
Re: Talking Point: What PS Plus Games for PS5, PS4 in April 2022 Do You Want?
Something good hopefully.
Re: Ghostwire: Tokyo (PS5) - Not the Bethesda Swansong We Hoped For
@Mince Nah that would be a 7, this is minus an extra point for being an Xbox studio game.
Re: Ghostwire: Tokyo (PS5) - Not the Bethesda Swansong We Hoped For
Some of the Bethesda hate in these comments is kinda pathetic.
Re: Poll: Will You Buy Hogwarts Legacy?
I can't bring myself to support anything Harry Potter now.
Re: Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin (PS5) - Utterly Ridiculous Final Fantasy Spin-Off
This same reviewer was too harsh on Monark too so I feel I can ignore this opinion.
Re: New Atlus JRPG Soul Hackers 2 Gets a Second Trailer
I'm hyped if you couldn't already tell.
Soul Hackers 1 is such an underrated game so I'm glad its getting a sequel.
Re: JoJo's Bizarre Adventure the Big Winner from Sony's State of Play
Just shows how poor it was.
Compared to Nintendo's last Direct that was embarrassing.
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Elden Ring?
8/10.
Fun but missing some QoL things that would make it better.
I would like to pause and a minimap wouldn't be too bad.
Re: Returnal, It Takes Two Lead BAFTA Games Awards Nominees
Last year was so weak looking back.
Re: Soapbox: It's Okay to Enjoy Elden Ring and Horizon Forbidden West
Who said its not.
Re: Mini Review: Voice of Cards: The Forsaken Maiden (PS4) - Reshuffled RPG Is Largely the Same
Considering the first game came out 4 months ago I'm not surprised they feel the same.
Re: PS Plus PS5, PS4 Games for March 2022 Are Available Now
Not that you would know it playing that Sonic game online.
Its so dead.
Re: GRID Legends (PS5) - A Solid Racer with a Lacklustre Narrative
@Pixelated What exactly makes this woke? Because there is a black person in it?
Re: GRID Legends (PS5) - A Solid Racer with a Lacklustre Narrative
Who plays any kinda sports game for its story anyway?

Really meh month
Re: Horizon Forbidden West Reaction GIFs Are Just the Best
@middyone TBH I don't care enough to explain bruh.
Re: Cyberpunk 2077 (PS5) - Dark Future RPG Is Finally Ready to Rock
I feel burned by this game still after they essentially made us pay full price for the beta version.
I'll get it whenever it drops to the price you can pick up The Witcher 3 now.

Re: UK Sales Charts: Horizon Forbidden West Hunts Down a Number One Debut
Kinda impressed Pokemon is still top 2 after so long.
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Sifu?
I'll try this if its ever added to PS Plus
Re: Horizon Forbidden West Is Getting Review Bombed on PS5, PS4 for No Reason
This happens every major release.
Xbox fanboys review bomb Sony stuff and Sony fanboys review bomb Xbox stuff.
Its always pathetic and childish.
Re: Talking Point: What PS5, PS4 PS Plus Games for March 2022 Do You Want?
Hopefully something better than this months games.
Sakura Wars would be cool.
Re: In the UK, 70% of Boxed Horizon Forbidden West Buyers Paid More Than They Needed To
In the UK we pay too much for PS5 games anyway.
They rip us off bad here
Re: Elden Ring's PS5, PS4 Overview Trailer Is the Extra Hype Your Weekend Needs
This looks amazing, I think we're looking at the first game of the year to break 90% on Metacritic and stay there.
Re: Elden Ring's PS5, PS4 Overview Trailer Is the Extra Hype Your Weekend Needs
@RevGaming Thats what won Mario 64 its GotY awards.
Re: Sony's Releasing a PS4 System Update to Fix Cyberpunk 2077 Disc Issues
So you're saying I was waiting 10 minutes for the update today so I can play a game I don't want to anyway?
Re: Poll: Did You Buy Horizon Forbidden West?
I'm still playing Arceus while waiting for Elden Ring and Triangle Stratagy so too much good stuff around it I'm afraid.
I will probably pick it up April because March is also kinda stacked.
Re: Horizon Forbidden West Reaction GIFs Are Just the Best
@rpg2000 They were fun at first but with every new release they feel more forced.
Glad you can enjoy them tho.
Re: Horizon Forbidden West Reaction GIFs Are Just the Best
I find these gifs super cringe when they do them to be honest.
Re: Monark (PS5) - Tedious JRPG Grinds to a Halt
Will still get it once I'm done with other stuff.
Final score seems a tad harsh, reads more like a 6/10.
Re: New PS Store Planet of the Discounts Sale Live Now, 900+ PS5, PS4 Deals
This sale has more quantity that quality looking through some of the deals.
Ys VIII for just over £15 is a good one I'd recommend though.
Re: Disgaea 6 Complete Ditches Switch for PS5, PS4 This Summer
"Disgaea 6 Complete finally comes to PS4 and PS5 this Summer"
There I gave you a headline that doesn't treat getting a port as some kinda fanboy win.
Re: Sony More Likely Than Microsoft to Acquire a Japanese Game Company, Analyst Explains
@QBGaming12 Sony getting Atlus would be the death of any creativity they have.
No way would they see the 800k SMTV sold as a success so they'd be forced to pump out Persona and Persona spin-offs till the end of time.

I hope both stay the hell away from Japanese devs, they're both too West focussed.
I don't fancy Sony pulling what they did to Japan Studio with Atlus.
Re: Poll: Did You Buy Dying Light 2: Stay Human for PS5, PS4?
This is a £10 impulse buy kinda game for me.
No interest but if I'm in need of something to play and its cheap I'll get it.
Re: Nintendo Switch Has Now Outsold PS1, Targeting PS4 Next
Well deserved.
One of the best consoles ever so deserves its success.
Re: Nintendo Switch Has Now Outsold PS1, Targeting PS4 Next
@Notintogimmickconsol Kinda pathetic that you made a whole account just to post this.
Re: OlliOlli World (PS5) - Fantastic Skateboarding Game Is a World Apart from Predecessors
Enjoyed the other games in the series so getting this is a no brainer for me.
Re: Dying Light 2 (PS5) - Good Sequel Hurt by Expectation
Why are people acting like 7/10 is a bad score.
Re: PlayStation Boss Jim Ryan Says You Should Expect More Acquisitions
I just hope they stay the hell away from SEGA.
I don't fancy them shutting down Atlus if SMT "only" sells 1 million copies. Or worse force them to abandon all creativity and only make Persona games.
Re: PlayStation Boss Jim Ryan Says You Should Expect More Acquisitions
Screw this, its bad for the industry.
Re: Poll: Did You Buy Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection?
I didn't, I probably would have considered it if I hadn't already played these pretty recently and it didn't come out the same day as Pokemon. I felt something new was a better option.
Re: Access a Huge Vault of PS5, PS4 Games for £3.99/$4.99 with EA Play
Might get it just to play through Mass Effect, nothing else interests me on it.
Re: Reaction: Activision Blizzard Buyout Is Devastating for PS5, PS4
Just buy an Xbox too, they're pretty cheap if you go the digital only route and Gamepass means you get pretty much all first party stuff day of release for the price of a Netflix Sub.
I play on all three systems so none of this bothers me too much.
Re: Microsoft Buys Call of Duty Publisher Activision Blizzard
And this lads and lasses is why I'm a multiplatform gamer, only way this effects me is it forces me to play them on my Xbox.
