I think this might be a great thing. This franchise has been struggling for years but is slowly getting better, i can see SEGA helping Rovio to make even better games unless they don’t rush on their games like they did with Sonic Team. Angry Birds was one of my biggest childhood games and seeing it being owned by the same company as Sonic is kind of mind blowing
Man, i like PlayStation, but I genuinely hate how their open world cinematic games and Ratchet & Clank gets all the spotlight while games that doesn’t feature a realistic setting with actual people get sidelined because it's for toddlers.
At least Mm is working on a new game which is exciting. Sucks that Dreams didn’t get past more than 3 years during its support, it deserved more if Sony doesn't have that mindset.
These people didn’t even look at the FAQ page on the website. It says that all "previously earned or purchased content will carry over to the full game when it comes out next year. Y'all are just too quick to complain and lazy to read
@NEStalgia Eh, MultiVersus is free-to-play so most people will come back for the full launch. Also, most of the content you purchased during the beta will carry over to the full game.
I haven't played MultiVersus for a while, but I wondered why that game hasn't gotten any new content since November.
Nice to see it isn't permanently shutting down, however. I hope this game will be even better when it relaunches next year, i gotta get those Space Jam skins for Bugs and Taz with Gleamiums before they're getting pulled on my birthday!
PS: anyone who thinks this strategy is weird didn't look at the start screen and realize it's an open beta lol.
My guess is that they're making these remakes/remasters just to bolster their dry line-up, so many games are still behind schedule due to Covid having a massive impact on game development.
To be fair, Open World games on consoles like GTA usually runs at 30 fps, so it was bound to happen. But still, a slight letdown for me since I always prefer playing games at 60 fps on 4K. But i hope this rumor is inaccurate.
@Deoxyr1bose I’m not just comparing it to Angry Birds, but other games as well. When games like Super Mario 3D World reuses the same layout from Super Mario 64, it's fine, but when Sonic does it, it’s trash. Shows how much you hypocrites hate Sonic for dumb and unfair reasons. Truly pathetic.
@AFCC lazy? Literally other games like Mario did exactly like that before! How about you stop being pessimistic over Sonic Frontiers bc some Sonic fan is trying to paint this game terrible for stupid reasons?
That’s just stupid. Other games like Mario exactly did copy the same levels from previous games before. Even stupid is that they don’t even play a huge role in Sonic Frontiers - the open zone setting is what the game sells, not these 1-minute levels served as special stages.
It’s just a stupid argument in the petty Sonic fandom. Just be excited for the game and don’t let the fandom drive you away from getting the game.
@KidBoruto Tiny Toons Looniversity (despite the whole controversy surrounding Buster and Babs), Looney Tunes movies like The Day the Earth Blew Up and Bye Bye Bunny, and The Gumball movie.
The entire WB drama has me for the most part worried about the company and its projects. Glad MultiVersus is one of the very few WB properties unaffected by this purging. I hope the animated projects I look forward to survive the big cut.
@somnambulance I doubt scalpers will buy most of the PSVR2 stock since PSVR isn't as popular as other headsets. Maybe the first batch but not the rest.
PlayStation Productions: "Let’s make our films and games only based on realistic third-person adventure games because no one cares Sly Cooper or Ape Escape!"
@RawnDawn Nah, Microsoft has enough companies already, they don't need to buy more. If they buy more they're taking stuff away and forcing everyone to buy Xbox.
That Microsoft and Activision buyout really inspired other third-party publishers to plan on selling themselves. I don't like today's game industry man.

@carlos82 Not really. It was among the top-selling games on PS Store when PS5 came out
Re: The Last of Us Is One of Sony's More Popular PC Ports Despite the Flaws
This is disgraceful. Sackboy deserves more success on PC than this rushed pile of dung
Re: The Latest PS5 Firmware Update Is Available to Download Now
@sanderson72 Themes wouldn't make sense on PS5 since every game has its own background

As someone who's more of a LEGO BrickHeadz collector, tossing Funko pops into the landfill is a huge waste.

Re: PSVR2's Packaging Doubles as a Handy Storage Box
That's a very smart idea and I'm going to make sure that I'll not throw this box when I'm unboxing my PSVR2 when it arrives
Re: Yes, You Can Play Non-VR PS5 Games with PSVR2's Cinematic Mode
Awesome! I enjoyed watching my favorite movies on PSVR because it felt like I'm in a movie theater, and I'm glad it will be even better on PSVR2!

Re: Sonic Frontiers Speeds Past 2.5 Million Sales in Its First Month
Well deserved, Sonic Frontiers is the best Sonic game I’ve played, even if it’s a bit flawed!
2022 really has been a great year for Sonic and I really can’t wait for the free updates for this game next year, especially the new story expansion!
Re: PS5 Users Unimpressed with DualSense Edge Controller's Premium Price Tag
Not really. Other electronic products from Sony have also risen their price tags.
Re: PS5 Users Unimpressed with DualSense Edge Controller's Premium Price Tag
The price in Europe is higher due to the price inflation caused by the semiconductor shortages. So it's not Sony's fault.

Re: Poll: Was Gamescom Opening Night Live 2022 Any Good?
The DualSense Edge controller, Sonic Frontiers and maybe Goat Simulator 3 are the only good parts of the event. Others were meh

Re: Gamescom Opening Night Live Will Subject Us to More Sonic Frontiers
Definitely looking forward to seeing Sonic Frontiers on ONL. It could be the best Sonic game since Colors and Generations.

Re: PlayStation Action Figures, Playsets, Plushes, and More Promised in New Toy Making Partnership
Of course these mentioned properties has to be from their same Oscar bait games and not fun and lighthearted games like R&C

Re: MultiVersus Cinematic Trailer Introduces Taz, Velma, and The Iron Giant
These new fighters are cool except for The Iron Giant, which kinda misses the point of the character and the movie itself he's in too.
