This is why publishers don't care about the outrage.

Worst reviewed COD game is likely going to be the best selling game of the year

@Hundred_Hand_Slap

Capitalism. Raise price by 30%

Have a "sale" at a 30% discount.

If I can find this for £400 (Bundle) I'll bite on it.

Game is going to have long legs.

Christmas is going to push it an extra few million. Probably 10 mill plus by next year april

Playing it and loving it.

Absolutely love these games. The world. The stories. The side content. Only on Chapter 2 but thats the point. The substories and side content is so good.

A dense smaller open world is better than an open empty one.

They know people are letting their subscriptions lapse or they are downgrading their tier.

Can't increase the price by this much without expecting some backlash.

If there was a FC24 bundle for £400, a similar bundle for Spider-Man 2 will sell like mad.

Thoroughly enjoyed GOW 2018 and Ragnarok but I prefer the original trilogy.

Greeky Mythology>>>>Norse

Prefer the OG and especially if i want the disc drive

12 Years after the GTA 5 trailer dropped.

Its finally happening.

Social media is going to be insane when its finally announced

For 1min35secs

That was pretty good!

Although I highly recommend playing Yakuza 0-6 and ESPECIALLY 0

That game alone remains one of the best videogame stories of all time

Day 1 Play on gamepass

PS Plus Premium is a horrible deal over Extra if you dont care for PS3 streaming.

Looks cheap. Hopefully it feels better in the hands and weight wise

MGS4 needs to be released from its PS3 shackles

All the more baffling turning away from what made you successful in the first place and chase after live service games

Shocked to see Saints Row there.

Hope they maintain the seriousness of the main story with the wackiness of everything else.

RGG games are treats.

@BeerIsAwesome

Both games are dropping Day 1 on Gamepass so Xbox have to market them hard to make it worth the investment.

It will likely always sell more on Playstation regardless though.

Curious to hear the overall sales numbers after one week.

I am going to guess its between 7 - 10 Million units sold.

@LiamCroft

How did they address THAT fight in MGS1? (Controller Ports)

Yakuza is now a mainstream franchise. No english dub at launch will hurt sales although I highly recommend playing it in Japanese.

The beginning of the end

The all digital PS6 and Xbox Series whatever is looking more likely.

@Ooccoo_Jr

I'm like you. I rarely buy games day 1 as there is always a backlog available through PS Plus Premium.

Games I want to play day 1 like Spider-Man I will buy, beat and platinum within a week or 2 and then resell for close to the amount I purchased it for.

Did this for GOW Ragnarok and essentially spent $10 on it after reselling it.

FC24
FC25
FC26

Same game. New name.

Keeping my wallet locked and loaded for Spider-Man 2.

3 years into PS5 and nothing even hinted at by Naughty Dog yet Insomniac is about to release its 2nd major title.

Dragonball Z Budokai Tenkaichi 3 was my favourite back on PS2.

Easy enough for anyone to pick up and have a good time and deep enough for people to master too.

@Jswift56

I still play Factions to this day. TLOU multiplayer is so much fun and especially with friends.

How they messed up this badly when the formula was already there is insane.

I wonder what the total download size will be on the PSN store.

Perfectly fine with 2 discs to store games. We have been doing it since the PS1 days and if you don't want discs, you can always download.

Choice is good for us.

This is what happens when you ignore what made you the company you are today and go chasing what everyone else is doing.

AAA Single Player games. This is what Sony is known for and what makes them win the console generation after generation. Don't fix what isn't broken.

Definitely a bucket list destination. Love Japanese games and Eastern culture in general.

Excellent article.

@MFTWrecks

Saints Row was the first game where I had to immediately go into the control setup and try play with it to make it even playable.

Then after playing a few missions, I deleted it and will almost certainly never go back.

The review scores were justified.

10 Million sold in the first week is my prediction.

@nomither6

This.

Swinging should be easy to do that anyone can grab a controller and do it but have enough depth that people who get really good can swing faster and with more finesse.

@Tr3mm0r

Actually the opposite of moaning. I understand why they are in no rush to release GTA 6.

From a financial point of view, it makes perfect sense for them.

@Tr3mm0r

That's why Rockstar has little incentive to push out GTA 6. Their 10 year old game is consistently in the Top 10 and makes them billions each year.

I have to visit Kamurocho once in my life as well

I feel like i'll know certain corners and streets despite never having been there in real life lol

Great article

I love Naruto (Stopped watching when Shippuden finished. Had a good ending.) Played all the ultimate ninja storm games so I'll likely wait for a sale since I have all 1-4 games.

Callisto Protocol is something I would try but not buy to try.

Modern Gaming.

Release First
Fix Later

Day 1 purchasers are glorified beta testers these days

@Splat

Hahaha This.

Not watching any of this as I already know its a day 1 purchase

@Jaz007

But people here cheer when Sony buy up companies but complain when Microsoft does it.

Its hypocrisy. Its either all bad or its fair game

@Martsmall

If Sony had the money to do so, they would 100% do the exact same thing.

Its only console fanboys who get weirdly obsessive over a brand that dont realise this

@naruball

The same way Xbox owners can't play Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, Spider-Man 2, God of War?

Exclusives have always been part of gaming. You now have a choice to make. Stick to playstation (which most people likely will do) or get an Xbox to play Xbox exclusive games.

Same thing with Nintendo. Lets not cheer Sony keeping things exclusive by buying Insomniac but get upset when Microsoft does the same thing.

Yakuza 0 is one of my favourite games of all time and I love the fact this franchise doesn't wait too long until the next game is released.

1-3 years is the sweet spot. You can fully enjoy one adventure (in this case two!) before the next one drops.

Just finished Lost Judgment through PS Plus and I am stoked to play these Day 1

@OneWingedAngel

This.

Its incredibly ignorant of people to assume their way of thinking is the only correct way.

The Yakuza & Judgment games have always displayed the female characters as being just as capable as the men from Sayama, Seto, Saiko, Mafuya & Haruka who we literally play as in Yakuza 5 as she takes charge of her destiny and life and makes decisions for herself to Saoru who was responsible for bringing Ichiban and team together in Yakuza 7.

I'm excited for the game. I appreciate Japanese culture a lot (Clearly as I love these games, anime etc) and understand that the culture there is different to mine and that's fine

This was expected. They will use Cid & Vincent to help market the 3rd game or they will be part of the "Intergrade" DLC for this game.

Glad its nearly over.

Competition is good for us the consumer as stuff like this forces Sony to keep innovating to stay competitive.

Also lets be real, if Sony had the finances to make such a deal themselves, they almost certainly would too.
