@naruball People like that I put on ignore on the spot. Especially when the majority of their comments are negative and have nothing good to say about anything. It's his opinion, regardless on how baseless it is.
Being part Puerto Rican, it's nice to see heritage/culture being represented within many forms of media. I do hope to see more in the future. Much appreciated, Insomniac.
@AJDarkstar Hard to say since I doubt most who own a Pro report it. I've had very few issues with mine, and barely hear anything while playing demanding games. Perhaps it has something to do with dust build up, but who really knows for sure.
@torne Last I heard, they have around 350 employees. Plus I'm sure they have independent contractors working along with them to speed up development times.
@SirAngry I'm going by what is known about this new team being gathered for a rumored Uncharted game. I guess everything will be cleared up eventually when this new game is revealed.
@BamBamBaklava89 Well they don't have to buy up studios just for IPs. In terms of Konami, they could potentially just purchase exclusive licenses for their properties such as Silent Hill, MGS , Castlevania, etc. I think the best studios that fit their World Wide Studio family are Housemarque, BluePoint and perhaps Hello Games. Techland doesn't seem to fit into that mold personally speaking. Sumo Digital is probably unlikely, but they do have a handful of subsidiaries under their umbrella, so I guess that would depend on price and value in general. I see Sony acquiring a few more studios in the not so distant future, but their more likely to expand their current studios, which is already happening.
@SirAngry Actually, they aren't a separate studio. San Diego Studio has another team within, that is apparently working another Uncharted game. While they are a separate team, they are housed within the same studio. Even Guerilla Games, Naughty Dog or Japan Studio for example, have more than one team.
@Dan_ozzzy189 Depends on the amount of content. Perhaps there's something new to this game. Either way, could just wait until the price drops. Always an option.
@SilenceCZ Okay, but uhm...can you show me a source that proves that? I'm not trying to say you are lying, but proof is everything when it comes to claims.
@MichaelHawj Pre-ordered from Best Buy. Not a single email has come from them. It seems those who managed to pre-order theirs during the first wave haven't been affected.
@eddie429 Neither would I. The only thing that is appealing is Game Pass, but I don't need a Series X or S to play that when I can simply use that service on PC.
I think those who are getting upset, should cool off, and keep in mind that this is so far, a rumor, not a fact. Sooner or later, Sony will likely respond to it, or all our questions will be answered in their next chunk of news.
@Lovespuds Indeed. Plus a remaster isn't even going on at the moment, so not sure why everyone is getting overly hypothetical about it.
I'm not a fan of Xbox nor have any interest in Series X or S, but they are doing some interesting things and that's good on them. Whether Sony decides to do something similar or not isn't affecting me and I'd imagine the average PS5 owner will not complain about it. B/C is nice and I will use it everyone once in a while, but I prefer to play new games when I get my PS5.
@AdamNovice I'd say selfishness. Not sure why people are this bothered over remasters. They are targeted at those who missed out on them last gen or beyond that, or those who just like to double dip. Everyone has the option to pass on it. It's really that simple.
@KirbyTheVampire Lol. I never said that I'll buy them without a single thought. Good for Microsoft if they are doing it, but that doesn't mean that Sony has to do what they do. It's an "oh well" situation and I'm not going to be bummed over it. Regardless, I decide what I do with my own money and will decide if it's worth forking over. Not to mention I don't buy remasters day one. I prefer to wait until they drop in price. In which case, the investment risk is rather low. Why you even think that I'm a fanboy for not sharing the same opinion as others is rather childish on your part. If you prefer to insult others for not seeing it your way, then be my guest. I prefer the high road.
@get2sammyb Everyone is losing their minds. I honestly doubt MS is even considering Sega. I know they have deep pockets, but I don't think they're going to keep throwing more cash away. This recent acquisition is probably it for a long while. At least in terms of buying up publishers. Lol.
@nookie_egg I'm quite sure many can. Not everyone will see value. I personally don't. That's because I don't really play Bethesda games, so this deal with MS doesn't affect me one bit, and I'm sure there are a significant number of people who aren't bothered either. Let's not pretend everyone is going crazy over it. Lol.
@kingv84 No, I think that's just you baiting people to say that very thing. Lol. Good try, though. Whether this ends up being a good deal, remains to be seen considering it just happened. Until then, lay off the trolling. Bye now.
@Toypop Dude..just reading everything you said, it's clear you have zero clue on what you're talking about. Sony disposable? Just from this news? Get real. Bethesda is only a fraction of the gaming industry. Sony is still in good position, and they very well may just retaliate with a move of their own if they haven't yet behind the scenes. It's clear to me you're just the typical doom and gloom type that just likes to come in and misinformation. It's not working. We get it. You despise Sony. Regardless, they'll be fine and most of those games from Bethesda will come to PS5 as well because MS isn't going to throw away 7.5b on just Gamepass, and PC alone. Hence why most aren't even worried other than the minority who are quite vocal than the majority. That's all I have to say about that, and I'm done reading your nonsense. Bye now.
@TheGamerKing I'd rather they don't what MS is doing. Personally speaking, it's a shameful move regardless. I know they want to bulk up their Game Pass service, but it's definitely anti-consumer. I see people saying Sony did the same with Insomniac, but that's not even close to a comparison. One studio(that was pretty much a future Sony studio) isn't nearly as bad as several studios. It's not going to kill Sony, so people really need to relax on that. There's more to the industry than Bethesda. Either way, it's a sad move and kinda shows that MS can't really win unless they throw their money around. smh
Interesting. Well he said it takes advantage of PS5's feature set. That could mean a lot of things. My guess it means that it'll take advantage of the SSD with faster loading times(obviously) and likely ray tracing among those features. Though, I doubt it was built from the ground up with PS5 in mind. If that were true, then these games wouldn't be on PS4. I'm not bothered by it, as I look forward to playing HZD2 regardless, but it would have been best to just be upfront about it and not try to think that all your consumers are ignorant.
Looks like I got my PS5 pre-order in. At least I hope so. So far it shows up in my purchases. Both the Digital and Standard are up for pre-order for now(Best Buy). Hope everyone can manage to get one.
Been trying to pre-order from Best Buy(US) and can only get to the checkout. It's either the site is that messed up, or they sold out already. Regardless, it's disappointing.
@JohnnyShoulder I was referring to those with the "elitist" attitude, but yeah, I'm sure the average PC gamer is probably not happy about the update. Life happens.
@theMEGAniggle MLB is on there because Sony had to make a choice. Either bring the Show to other platforms, or lose the MLB license. Different situation.
@AdamNovice I doubt that. They published it in other regions, yes, but that doesn't give them any rights outside of the deal back during the PS3 era. Sony is releasing it to PC simply because there's a big community within Souls games on that platform. It'll probably be exclusive for a year.

Re: PS5 Pre-Orders from Some Retailers May Not Be Fulfilled Until 2021
@zimbogamer They also charge $4.99 every time you eject and/or insert a disc. I hope they ran that by you before you purchased.

@zimbogamer They'll waive the fee if you purchase their GameStop protection plan for the low price of $199.99.
