Business as usual here, this article is straight outta 2015 when PC games were actually that big and bigger. Even console games on "last gen" (PS4 compared to PS5) have been bigger the last few years.
@Oddbodjunior I'm sure it's great for other people, but just not for me. FF16 is years away, and I'll play it better on PC. Nothing else shown I care about.
I cancelled my nearly year old preorder today because it has no games I'm interested in yet. Every game coming to PS5 will play better on my PC and there are so far no exclusives I want.
I'll get one down the line when there are exclusive games I want on it.
I don't care about Ratchet, Horizon, Demon's Souls, Gran Turismo, Spiderman.
@DeepSpace5D So far I've got nothing to buy a PS5 for at launch. I'm not a big fan of many Sony games. I'll probably still buy it at launch to have for "down the line".
@Bush I think the US prices are shown without tax but the EU are? I'm Irish so I'm not sure. But every time I see games advertised as $60 online, US friends tell me it's $60 + tax.
@Collette Nier didn't have a 1 year timed exclusive period. PC launch was around a month later, and only because that version was delayed at the last minute
@Bobobiwan FF7R literally says it on the box it is timed exclusive and even gives the date when it runs out. Square Enix have also announced it officially.
I think €500 at launch, considering there isn't anything for me to play on there and the multiplats will play better elsewhere for me. I'd just be buying it to have for later (even though I could wait and get a better deal) but I need it for other reasons sadly
The whole playing chicken with price reveals is insulting honestly. Nvidia gave us specs, physical view, ports, price and availability all at once, before these consoles did anything.
Nice being treated like an adult all the time since it's PC.
No sympathy for anyone that continues to support EA. You get what you deserve. Treated to a terrible business practice in a terrible game by a terrible company.

Re: The Elder Scrolls, Fallout Developer Bethesda Bought By Microsoft
@PeakyBlinder Many Playstation fans are hypocrites. They think it's good and ok when Sony buys studios, but if Microsoft do it, it's bad.
Konami even started trending on twitter because Playstation fans were begging Sony to buy them as a response.
Re: Your Marvel's Spider-Man Saves Can't Be Carried Over to the PS5 Remaster
I have a feeling if Sony start doing next gen remasters (GoW, TLoU2, GoT, etc) they won't ve giving free upgrades....
Re: The Elder Scrolls, Fallout Developer Bethesda Bought By Microsoft
Keep that same energy that PS fans had when Sony bought Insomniac and others or you're all hypocrites.
Re: Sony Apologises for PS5 Pre-Order Panic, More to Be Made Available
@TheNewButler Us PC gamers fight for the little guys (console gamers) because we can and they can't.
Re: Sony Apologises for PS5 Pre-Order Panic, More to Be Made Available
Admitting artifical scarcity, wow.

Re: Fans Want to Know if They Can Upgrade from PS4 to Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered on PS5
@Kidfried Pikmin was relisted on the wiiu recently. About a week after the Switch announcement.
Re: Fans Want to Know if They Can Upgrade from PS4 to Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered on PS5
Apparently not.

Re: Poll: Will You Buy a PS5?
@naruball Glad to know you care that much. I'll buy one when an exclusive game I want comes out.
Re: The Dream Is Dead: PS5 Will Not Play PS3, PS2, or PS1 Games
More like Sony reconfirms for the 100th time and places still run for clicks
Re: PS5 Console Exclusive Godfall Goes Gold Ahead of Launch
@playstation_king I believe so?
Or as I just saw someone else post, maybe not. I was going off the PC release date (November 3rd) since that is before the Xbox console launch.
Re: PS5 Console Exclusive Godfall Goes Gold Ahead of Launch
@playstation_king 3. The Medium is next gen/pc only. I'd even say 2 but I'm not sure on the Xbox date for Bright Memory Infinite.
Re: PS5 Console Exclusive Godfall Goes Gold Ahead of Launch
The new trailer made it go from absolute snoozefest to "maybe in a steam sale" since it's a multiplat. From a 0/10 interest to 1/10.

Re: 99% of PS4 Games Can Be Played on PS5, Says PlayStation Boss
I'll probably only bother with TLOU Remastered for PS4 games on PS5.
Re: Demon's Souls Remake Is a PS5 Launch Game
@DeepSpace5D My problem is I have a lot of disposable income, get bored easy and have little self control.
Re: Sony Believes in Generations, But Confirmed a Bunch of PS5 Games for PS4
@get2sammyb Mutually exclusive means it has to be one or other.
Re: Demon's Souls Remake Is a PS5 Launch Game
@DeepSpace5D So far I've got nothing to buy a PS5 for at launch. I'm not a big fan of many Sony games. I'll probably still buy it at launch to have for "down the line".
Re: Demon's Souls Remake Is a PS5 Launch Game
@DeepSpace5D 3090. Still damage control without a sauce.
Re: Sony Believes in Generations, But Confirmed a Bunch of PS5 Games for PS4
These things are mutually exclusive.
Re: Demon's Souls Remake Is a PS5 Launch Game
@DeepSpace5D Doesn't bother me, not into Demon's Souls. Still waiting on a sauce though.
Re: Sony Confirms PS5 Games Will Cost More
@Steel76 And play and look better at the same time~
Re: Sony Confirms PS5 Games Will Cost More

Re: Horizon Forbidden West Is Coming to Both PS5 and PS4
"We believe in generations"
Re: Demon's Souls PS5 Gameplay Trailer Looks Absolutely Stunning
@Nepp67 Fanboys gobble it up.
Re: Demon's Souls PS5 Gameplay Trailer Looks Absolutely Stunning
@TheNewButler During the reveal it said "Not available on other consoles for a limited time. Also on PC" so yes, coming to all 3.
Re: Final Fantasy XVI Announced, PS5 Console Exclusive, Gameplay Trailer
@jamberino93 It's likely very early in development, which is why the models (specifically the hair) looked bad.
Re: Final Fantasy XVI Announced, PS5 Console Exclusive, Gameplay Trailer
Can't wait to play it on PC with my RTX 6090 by the time it launches.
Re: Rumour: Sony Forced to Cut PS5 Production By 4 Million Units Due to Chip Troubles
I'm the 2nd preorder in Gamestop Ireland so mine is secure at least.
Re: Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2 Is the Fastest Selling Game in Franchise History
@LocalPenguin You should be. Every game certified after July 2020 had to be certified to work on PS5 as well.
Re: Bungie Outright Denies Microsoft Acquisition Speculation
I never believe anything from these companies. Remember when Insomniac denied Sony buyout then a few weeks later, UH OH!!!
Re: Fans Expect Final Fantasy 16 to Be Announced for PS5 Next Week
@1_W1NG3D_4NG3L That's their feelings causing them to damage control, not facts.
Re: Fans Expect Final Fantasy 16 to Be Announced for PS5 Next Week
@Collette Goalposts moved. Gameover.
Re: Fans Expect Final Fantasy 16 to Be Announced for PS5 Next Week
@Collette Right, so neither had 1 year exclusivity deals. Got it.
Re: Fans Expect Final Fantasy 16 to Be Announced for PS5 Next Week
@Collette Nier didn't have a 1 year timed exclusive period. PC launch was around a month later, and only because that version was delayed at the last minute
Octopath also not 1 year
Re: Fans Expect Final Fantasy 16 to Be Announced for PS5 Next Week
@Bobobiwan FF7R literally says it on the box it is timed exclusive and even gives the date when it runs out. Square Enix have also announced it officially.
Re: Fans Expect Final Fantasy 16 to Be Announced for PS5 Next Week
After FF7R, if Sony pull timed exclusive shenanigans again, I will gladly wait out the year.
Re: PS5 Showcase Event Confirmed for This Wednesday
@JJ2 Oh it wasn't offensive or anything, I was just legit shocked to see it lol
Re: PS5 Showcase Event Confirmed for This Wednesday
@JJ2 Oh wow, someone who didn't know "sauce" is internet slang for source. Haven't seen that happen in over a decade.
Thanks for the nostalgia.
Re: PlayStation Store Sales Charts: Fall Guys Can't Top Madden 21 in US, But It's a Knockout in Europe
I always get a kick out of that.
Re: You'll Still Have to Pay for EA Play Independently on PS5, PS4
@zupertramp It's one of those silly marketing terms, like "console launch exclusive". PS+ games aren't free, games with gold aren't free,
Re: Poll: How Much Are You Willing to Pay for PS5?
@Kienda I'm expected to have it for coverage reasons to examine the "hot new thing" for a hobby I do.
Re: Poll: How Much Are You Willing to Pay for PS5?
I think €500 at launch, considering there isn't anything for me to play on there and the multiplats will play better elsewhere for me. I'd just be buying it to have for later (even though I could wait and get a better deal) but I need it for other reasons sadly
Re: Kena: Bridge of Spirits Takes Two Seconds to Boot on PS5
All those instant boots and no load claims have already dried up and it's not even out yet. This is why you don't believe marketing.
Re: Reaction: PS5 Price Under Scrutiny After Disruptive Xbox Series S Reveal
@SirRealDeal They only ignore it on console. Which is fine with me, I can't wait for VR support on flight sim with my 3090.

Re: Soapbox: Let's Give Activision a Bit of Credit, Yeah?
Push Square on the cutting edge of copying last week's videos by many youtubers.
Re: Talking Point: Could PS5 Be Delayed?
@Matroska But it still won't have any exclusives as they're all on PC as well.
