@TheFrenchiestFry Sony is consistent in seeing a project completed unlike other publishers so I'm confident whatever their developing will eventually reach gold status.

A game that is not 4K is not an issue to me as long as the games runs at a high framerate (60 and above). I rather have developers take advantage of other PS5 capabilities like the decompression tech (smaller game file ftw), SSD and audio tech. Achieving the "4K" mark is getting redundant considering we have great upscaling techs like DLSS, checkerboard and AMD upcoming upscaling tech.

One thing I like about Sony is that they rarely cancel their games. I truly hope that whatever their trying to develop can finally reach gold status.

I'm pretty sure Sony will supply their own staff and tech (Decima) to help out with the development, this is why stuff like xdev exist.

Platinumed a few weeks ago. Enjoyed it alot, truly deserve the sales milestone. Here's hoping vanilla continue to make such games.

I'm pretty sure they are aware of the situation and counteracting it as they see fit. We have pretty much seen a glimpse of it with the increased quality of the plus offering.

My prediction for their next move:

• Acquisition of a studio or two (bluepoint and housemarque maybe)
• Strengthening their ties with third party and second party developer (expect more console exclusive games)
• Increase development for exclusive games from each of their studio similar to what insomniac is doing.
• Further increase the PS collection offerings.
• Take advantage of their relationship with kadokawa to perhap sign some deals for multiple exclusive games.

This is just my perspective of what they can do as a countermeasures. We already seen what they can do especially during the ps3 era so I'm pretty confident they will do the same now.

@THEONE19 While is sad that is gone but let's be honest is a long time coming even before Jimmy took over sie.

Hope they fixed all the bugs and performance issues. The Japanese release was disastrous from what I heard.

@ToniK Unfortunately there's is not enough sales to justify a sequel and if I not mistaken Sega no longer own the licence.

Looks great, basically the aliens version of WWZ which i like. The only issues i have is the Xeno Ai, Xenomorph is portrayed to be smart and able to adapt but from the gameplay is like they just rush the players in numbers. Hopefully it scales with the difficulty.

Hoping is more about the current gen upgrade, the multiplayer and hopefully new IPs.

I guess this is Sony answer to gamepass lol. Not that I'm complaining though, is actually a smart move from Sony.

Nice, one of the best mana games imo. Can't wait to play it again. Quite disappointed that is digital only though, such gem deserve to be a collectable.

Is nice to see PS5 software sales is gaining traction. Was alittle worried on the initial software sales.

Merry Christmas y'all ⛄🎄

Aww why they can't just do a survival horror style game like the one on playstation? Felt disappointed that is a multiplayer.

Lame upgrades considering both GOT and Days Gone which is graphically superior than breakpoint runs at a higher resolution running at a lock 60fps.

I think nobody have mentioned this where perhaps the low games sales is because most gamers buy the PS5 to use the backwards compatible feature? If there is no such function you can bet that ps5 software sales will be higher.

@NEStalgia I'm glad I'm not the only one that had that problem lol.

@TechaNinja Smart guess will be better graphics, less loading times and better performance. Not to forget the implementation of the dualsense functions.

@Jayslow Same here buddy, I was also worried that Sony is going to the dark serious tone especially towards the end of the generation but I'm glad that's not the case.

@Quintumply Does this game subverts your expectations in terms of the tone? From what I see this game seems to have a darker tone behind that cheerfulness.

I was surprised at the loading and performance issues only to realize is the PS4 version huhu. 😅

@SilentS Actually there are rumours that they have revised their policy whereby only Japanese games which get localised will be screened but otherwise they won't bothered. I play a few Japan only visual novel for PS4 and I can confirm that is the case.

In terms of console yes Nintendo has dominated that part but Sony currently dominates the mobile market in Japan.

@Snick27 In the console space yes but mobile games market is mostly dominated by Sony.

@Bad-MuthaAdebisi Considering Sony successful venture in the Japan mobile industry, I don't there will ever be a portable playstation but still you will never know.

@Menchi Yeah, I think there's a typo. Sony only has the marketing rights for RE8 and DMC5 and not timed exclusive.

There is alot of contradiction to this report though:

1) Sony investment and obtaining marketing rights to Japanese games like final fantasy and Capcom games.
2) Sony near monopoly of the anime industry especially with the recent near acquisition of crunchyroll.
3) Sony near dominance in the Japan mobile games market with games like FSN bring in billions for them despite the fact that is still did not localised internationally.
4) PS5 is releasing in Japan first while Europe which is the dominant market did not.
5) Japan Studio recent expansion which includes development support studio similar to Xdev.

All of this indicates that Japan is still an upmost important market as a whole and if is not then why sony still continue to do whatever I listed above?

TL:DR, too many contradiction on the Bloomberg news.

@DonJorginho I understood that reference. Better buy 2 or 3 just in case haha.

Hollow Knight from this month ps plus. How the heck did I miss this game? Such an awesome game both in terms of gameplay and aesthetics.

@hi_drnick Yes you can.

@SilenceCZ Yup, thankfully Until Dawn was much better in the retail build than the demo. For me, man of medan was downgraded graphically when compare to UD. I am hoping little hope improve from there both in performance and graphics.

@SilenceCZ In the case of Until Dawn, it was actually build on the Decima Engine (HZD engine). Man of Medan and the sequel was build using a different engine. Other than that i do agree with your statement.

Man, sekiro is truly a goty game for me. Those parrying sound effects is pure ASMR. I don't mind playing it all over again.

Come to think of it, Until Dawn runs at an uncapped fps right? If so, hope playing on PS5 allows it to run at 60fps.

I was hoping it comes in 4 disc for nostalgia sake hahaha

Love it, simple and clean.

Thanks for the heads up as I was almost bought this game, I will wait till it is fixed then. Guess they took the whole "broken" thing literally lol.

@NeuralDeclan Something something UI, something something game price lol

On my way to platinum Dark Souls 3, after that I can finally start 13 sentinel.

@Darylb88 Considering Yakuza 7 Japan release, im not suprise if its coming out on December 2020/ Early 2021 with western release somewhere end 2021.

@SuperSaeko Personally, Kiwami 2 was the best Yakuza due to the fact it has Majima story which ties heavily to Yakuza 0 as well.

@ApostateMage CEO OF SONY INTERACTIVE ENTERTAINMENT: JIM RYAN

Also knowing Yakuza level of plot twist, the final boss is actually Mark Cerny lol.

@Stragen8 Agree with you, the whole TLOU 2 controversy was blown out of proportion.

@JesWood13 I'm glad someone here mentioned Elden Ring, is been awhile since it was last revealed. Hopefully is not in development hell.

Wow, I'm actually surprised Sony giving effort in promoting PS5 in Japan, the Nintendo fanboys told me they given up Japan since is dominated by Nintendo lol. (Is a joke, don't take it seriously)

I like the artcover for DSR, it pretty much show you the insurmountable odds you will faced throughout the game. Excited for it.

It changes nothing, I have a gaming laptop so it pretty much covered. PS5/PC/Switch combo all the way for next gen.

@TechaNinja Saw the trailer for it, looks freaking amazing and yet instead of making it for current consoles and PC they decide to release it as a pachinko. Such a sad sad fate.
