Re: Microsoft, Activision Cut 1,900 Jobs in More Video Game Layoffs

Sanquine

It’s always funny to read the comments on purexbox. Second comment immediately calling laying off people a typical Sony thing to do😂

OT: shame for the guys and girls who lost their jobs. But as people mentioned when M&A happens the new owner will look into cutting costs. Mostly these are supporting roles such as HR or Finance

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 507

PS5: God of War: Ragnarok Valhalla —> Fantastic game really missed Mimir (smartest man alive)

PSVR2: Gran Turismo 7, VR really elevated this game for me. This in combination with my wheel and pedals and you’ve got an awesome experience

Now with Christmas looking whether to buy Resident evil 4 (mainly for VR),Spider-Man 2, Arizona sunshine 2, Bulders gate 3 or Alan Wake 2 (never bought the first one).. I know what a list (will definitely buy Blood & Wine expansion for Witcher 3).

Also bought a good whiskey 🥃. Happy gaming all!

Re: The Last of Us 2 PS5 Remaster Seems to Be Real

Sanquine

@Constable_What Hear Hear. PlayStation owner since PS1… Even got the PSP and Vita (really still pissed about how they treated the Vita).

I blame Ryan (thank god he is gone) and Herman Hulst (as fellow Dutchy I am ashamed. What a turd… Wish Phil Spencer was the head of studios instead of him). Guerilla is also transformed in a Horizon studio, while Killzone was a excellent franchise..

Re: The Last of Us 2 PS5 Remaster Seems to Be Real

Sanquine

I said it last week Sony is currently only busy with releasing remasters or porting games to PC. I generally despise PC gaming (I don’t understand the port beggars on here as PC gaming sucks… years ago I was into pc gaming but most releases are borderline unplayable / toxic community) but it seems that after this generation I need to build a gaming pc… Good job Sony for making console gamers feeling like second class (if you don’t know what I mean look at Horizon complete edition)

Re: Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition Officially Announced for PS5, PC

Sanquine

Really Sony…. These guys are doing a heck of a job convincing me to not buy a PS6.

All these guys can do is announce PC ports, remasters or complete editions. Instead of giving us new announcements of new games…. This generation really sucks

Example today is the TLOU day or outbreak day. Yet nothing about Factions or any new games. It’s all about the merchandise or giving late adopters /PC gamers far better value propositions.

Re: Firewall Ultra (PSVR2) - Flawed VR Shooter Misses the Mark

Sanquine

@Neither_scene To write off PSVR2 purely on Firewall is idiotic. Image quality depends on the type of game. Moss 1 and GT 7 look stunning while RE:village for me is very blurry. When a new astrobot launches you will miss out a great game (also the walking dead games seem to be very good but can be played on other VR devices).

EDIT: if you played Horizon call of the mountain then I can fully agree with motion sickness. Something with that game totally ruins my stomick.

Re: Sony 'Can't Risk' Sharing PS6 Details with a Microsoft-Owned Activision

Sanquine

Sony please just buy Capcom or Square Enix. I don’t care about Activision Blizzard 🙏. These companies will help Sony in creating additional RPG’s, as Microsoft has Bethesda and obsidian entertainment (really dislike that MS owns OE…Playing South Park SoT and those guys made a wonderful game xD) and thus having the whole western RPG market.

Re: PS5 Showpiece Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart Jumps to the PC Dimension in July

Sanquine

@Jacko11 The reason we are crying is because Playstation isn’t currently really investing in new PS5 exclusives. Every announcement except Spider-Man is also PC. In addition, we all believed the marketing from super SSD speed not being possible any where else (the rifts). I think the outrage from a part of the PS community including me is that the showcase was a total disappointment (leadership is also really out of touch)

Edit: for me also the lack of communication regarding PSVR2 games is really hurting the image of Sony/PlayStation. The dislike I have for current leadership is also pushing me to the other side for next generation (team Green for all third party, the exclusives for next PS and ofcourse Team N for their exclusives… but primary console for third party will definitely be team green)

Re: Rumour: Naughty Dog's Troubled The Last of Us Multiplayer PS5 Project Was Sniped by Bungie

Sanquine

Hmm makes sense…. Never played something from Bungie as every game after halo was Destiny right? Always felt like a game you can only play while neglecting the remainder of your game collection. Same reason why I never played fortnite or Apex Legends.

I do however played all naughty dog games… maybe Sony is not interested in people like me as I’m no person who purchases additional skins etc.

Re: Sony Significantly Scales Back Development of The Last of Us Multiplayer for PS5, Says Report

Sanquine

@Intr1n5ic @NEStalgia Leave NEStalgia alone. We need people like him who criticise Sony. Let’s face it Sony from the PS3/PS4 era is gone. Jim Ryan and Hermen only care about that sweet GAAS money. This is illustrated by Jim’s passion to block the takeover of AB. He only cares about the royalties they receive thanks to Call of duty Battle Royale (sorry I don’t know what the battle royale name is..).

Re: Sony Significantly Scales Back Development of The Last of Us Multiplayer for PS5, Says Report

Sanquine

Pfff I don’t know how I feel about this. I really liked the Last of Us Part 2. I also liked the idea of factions but with story elements. Shame that Sony is listening to Bungie…. The moment I saw every couple of months a new expansion was the moment I decided to never purchase/play any destiny as it’s a timesink.

Off topic: I miss the days when expansions were like new games. I remember Command and Conquer tiberian sun :firestorm very fondly… Shame Westwood died for the same reasons a lot of first party studio’s died… one mistake (Evolution studios, Zipper)

Re: Feature: PlayStation Showcase Biggest Winners and Losers

Sanquine

Winner:
1. Final fantasy as the release date is near my birthday.
2. Spider-Man 2: I loved the first one and MM expansion. Really digging that Peter is influenced by the symbiote!

Loser:

  • PSVR2 although I’m really exited for Arizona,RE 4 remake and beat saber (will buy it as my wife loves rhytm games).
  • PlayStation studios: how does it feel that Imsomniac is literally PlayStations Atlas. The other studio’s should have a good look at insomniac (Spider-Man remastered, Spider-Man miles morales, ratchet and clank a rift apart and now Spider-Man 2)
