@XboxistheBestBox Phil is on record saying only a couple of games will go to PC. 🤣 This is just the start and you can count on that.

@Yozora146_ According to the verge the 4 games are Hi-fi Rush, Sea of Thieves, Pentiment and Grounded.

So 4 games this year.
What 4 games will they pick next year?

Definitely looks interesting, I'll probably check it out.

@kazuyamushima Yeah Hiroki didn't clarify properly but he obviously means PC, Mobile and Cloud. The actual Sony CEO said this just 3 weeks ago.

Kenichiro Yoshida:

"PlayStation will remain our core product, we will expand our gaming experiences to PC, mobile, and cloud.”

Yeah nobody knows what this new aggressive PC release strategy is exactly. It could just be the day and date live service strategy they've just started with Helldivers 2 and maybe they could shorten the ports to 6 to 12 months or something, either way I don't really care if they are day one on PC.

Well there's actually 4 games there I will definitely try so I'm happy.

@Slayer25c Yeah I think I have good idea of who that is and I think I've reached my limit as well, I guess it's my turn to give up on him. 😉

@Nei Yeah true, and after I left this comment I went to the next article and surprise, surprise the usual suspects were complaining again. 😂👍

@Czar_Khastik Well Rare just teased the Sea of thieves PlayStation and Nintendo port on their twitter page so that will have to do, lol.

@Anthony_Daniels Well said.
All that really matters is if the games are good. 👍

@tho_mi probably because Xbox is already dead.

@nomither6 Yeah but this just ensures it keeps happening.

People are too sensitive these days but it has been so long since I actually played these I probably wouldn't have remembered if they changed anything anyway.

@GeeEssEff Well I know which option the Microsoft shareholders would prefer. 😉

The red PEGI 18 label is already on the box unless it's just a place holder?

Edit: Yeah I just double checked and Currys, HMV, Argos Amazon etc, basically anywhere that sells a physical copy it is rated PEGI 18 on the box art.

@nomither6 Actually the real benefit to us from Sony selling loads of consoles is it means PlayStation is sometimes prioritised by 3rd party developers.

But I thought Xbox was supposed to fix blizzard? 😂

Do yourself a favour and pick another game for that $30 lol. There's plenty in the sales at the moment.

Well I suppose it's guaranteed less sales now. I'm not sure how many it would've sold in South Korea though to begin with so maybe it won't impact sales too much.

I guess Sony doesn't want to risk it in case something in the game does piss them off even further, especially when they are trying to establish the PlayStation brand in South Korea.

@phoenix1 Yeah it's only cancelled in South Korea.

Yep they expanded the server limit but hit max again within 5 minutes lol.

Maybe you need glasses? I'm not being funny its just the only time a game has hurt my eyes is when I already had eye strain. Do you have 20/20 vision or maybe you already wear glasses. Motion blur could be a big factor though because some people are highly susceptible to it.

It looked fine to me and gameplay should always be prioritised over graphics.
I don't think I've let graphics interfere with my enjoyment of any game ever and I'm not about to start now.

@Paleblood Yeah they should definitely stick with that approach because it gives them a good idea of what they are getting into instead of just jumping in head first like they did with Bungie, although there's still time for the Bungie acquisition to pay off. Hopefully Marathon is a hit and the destiny expansion goes down well.

I saw a rumour somewhere that said they were apparently going to make an enthusiast console, which makes me think it's going to be very expensive, maybe they are just going to charge a high price for it straight out of the gate so they are no longer taking a loss on it and the rumour also stated they'd make a steam deck type handheld as well.

@UltimateOtaku91 Also I think this is Sony's second collaboration with Arrowhead, the first obviously being Helldivers 1 and as we know Sony likes to build a partnership first before they acquire studios so I wouldn't be surprised if they did try and buy them.

If Stellar Blade is a hit as well I wouldn't be surprised if Sony tried to buy Shift Up.

@UltimateOtaku91 It's not made by 1st party but Concord will be day & date as well. It is part of Sony's new strategy of live service games day & date to PlayStation and PC because live service games require big communities to thrive.

I don't see anything wrong with it because singleplayer system sellers won't be day and date, they are reserved to attract people onto Sony's platform.

Nice! Sony continues to do well while Xbox is crumbling right before our eyes. 👍

It doesn't matter how many A's they add on I'm not buying it.

@Sakai It's climbing, 64k last I checked. Fully expect it break 100k on the weekend which is a good result. Palworld is an exception not the norm.

@xx_PharsydeChemist_x Yeah Alex complained but he is part of that Resetara mob. Thankfully he conveniently wasn't in the video the other day when they said the graphics look great. Someone else stood in for him.

@jFug A small group of reddit and Resetera users who are best ignored. I'm not sure about twitter but I'm sure they are probably on there as well.

Okay so Shift Up just keep telling me what I want to hear. Such a flirt. 😅

@IndoorEnthusiast You can play solo.

@ZhuckelDror You never had an argument to begin with. It was always just your opinion because games are subjective.

@ZhuckelDror More weight then your personal opinion that's for sure. 😉

Nice! I'm glad it seems to be doing well.

Glory For Super Earth! 🫡

@ZhuckelDror And yet it was nominated for game of the year and actually won the Gamers choice game of the year award, along with other wins and nominations from D.I.C.E and the Bafta's, plus over 10 million sold. 👍

Also hopefully this means they can make some kind of deal over Sunset overdrive.

Well didn't Xbox fans say Microsoft buying ABK was a good thing because now more people will get to play their games? So what's the big fuss over? How come the same logic doesn't apply to Xbox 1st party games for some strange reason. 🤔😁

@Deityjester Well if they did you'll probably never hear anything about it, because Shift Up have already said Sony didn't make them censor anything and her outfits looked the same from the state of play. Actually some of the new ones looked even more revealing.

@trev666 You mean the remaster cost $39 million? There's no need to lie to try and make your point, and TLOU 2 cost $220 million and Ghost cost $60 million and they both released around the same time. Sure they are getting more expensive but that doesn't mean they can't make great games still even if Sony lowers the budget a little from time to time for some games.

@trev666 Ghost of Tsushima didn't have a massive budget either and that's a great game. With less pressure the studios could also be a bit more experimental with their games.

Yeah I'm glad he says it's different and wants it to stand on its own two feet, plus he's being respectful about it and acknowledging that NeiR gave him some inspiration.

@ATaco Hopefully both, because those should go hand in hand.

That's right Capcom. Give the people what they want. 👍

I'll play it in English probably but the Korean dub definitely sounded great from the trailers.

And is Phil still radio silent? The coward.

@IOI Yeah when Sony wasn't doing well the CEO and a couple of top executives slashed their own wages by 50% and waived their annual bonus to avoid mass layoffs. The CEO said the workforce are the key to making PlayStation a success so they are going to push forward, now PlayStation is Sony's most successful division so it paid off.

Microsoft on the other hand are a software company first and foremost and software is their speciality, they also have much more lucrative divisions and are obsessed with exponential growth, sure Sony obviously wants to grow as well but Microsoft shareholders are obviously used to much bigger returns, plus I doubt Satya would willingly take a pay cut and waive his bonus.
Edit: Actually I just remembered Satya actually had GamePass targets removed from his bonus because it was failing to hit them so he was getting less money. He gets about a $50 million dollar bonus annually by the way.
