@KoopaTheGamer Oh, iPhones and Samsung phones are also quite overpriced. Yet they keep selling. Whether you can afford a pro or not. I can buy one if I wanted to. But I don't care about the added value. I'd rather leave that 799 euros in my savings account and buy a PS6 in the future. And then I can also buy a Switch 2 from it, You're right, by the way. But saving is also an option if you really want something.
But why down the drain? Because it might not be your taste. But that has nothing to do with the quality of the games. There are enough who think these are good games. and maybe December will be more to someone else's taste.
@DonJorginho Yes of course, Sony wants quality and if a game doesn't deliver they are done with it very quickly. I say put it on ps plus for free and give it good updates. Stop that live service crap and make real games Hermen. I grew up with Playstation but this is far below par. Playstation for the Players... make sure it's happening.
I don't know but something about a series S could be the reason it's delayed on Xbox. And in Asia I think PS sold 5 times as many as Xbox. So launching on Playstation first isn't such a crazy choice.
Just look at new sortware, just for fun count how many idiotic games from aaiaeastsoft xiuani ltd piapia. and 100e worth of nonsense chinese crap in there. I mean, there must be some really good developers in there. But the same goes for the car industry. At some point we'll be flooded with too much crap.
I must honestly say that I enjoyed reading your story! really genuinely interesting. I didn't know that story either. In fact, I'm going to look into it a little more. And it indeed gives a nice look at the situation. But still, this is neither the Sony nor the Microsoft of 10 years ago. I think that today a completely different management approach is needed to keep things running. It remains to be seen whether the right approach is sometimes chosen. But I do think Hermen knows what he is doing. In that respect, I honestly think he has more in mind for the industry than Phil Spencer. But that's my personal view on console land. And if Hermen had worked for Xbox and Phil for Playstation it would have been exactly the other way around.
@NEStalgia
What's wrong with Hermen then? Of course, if you spread it out a lot, Playstation stuidos is no longer what it was 10 years ago. But on the other hand, if you see what it costs to make and release a game today, it is only logical. And if you look at how Sony as a company manages its studios, in my opinion they do it 10 times better than Microsoft. They actually hardly pay attention to the Xbox branch. And in terms of turnover, I understand that. But there are people working at Xbox and they can't do anything about it. In this situation there are still 155 people who can work within Playstation Sony shouldn't have done that, but they do.
@Hunter1994 Then why are you responding to a Playstation news site? but when I see your username, you are still too young to understand the adult world. It will work out just fine.
Well you can't say Warhorse is stingy. I think this is a very nice gesture. Even if you have already bought both games for at least a €125 donation, it is about the idea and the thoughts behind it.
Haha this is truly the most beautiful thing I have ever read. Does Phil know what an Xbox 360 is or has he not experienced that period? It looks like that. What a clown this man
@Dampsponge
Then you don't buy it. It,s always a choice. Everything costs money in life. Apparently many people (children) don't realize that yet. I'm going to buy it anyway. Do you also think that the new CoD and GTA6 will be available in stores for $29? Developing games is very expensive these days, so they have to be done.
@DnBSkillz But we've all seen what happens when a company has too many studios. Just let Sony do what they do because so far the Playstation is doing well. Unlike any other brand.
Not that I care about digital boobs either. But I do think that you should be able to turn this on and off yourself when playing. This feels a bit like an obligation.
@nessisonett Have you ever played the Godfather on PS3? Was from EA I believe. That was a really cool game. Measure a little bit of SIM aspects into it.
@CieloAzure Yes, that would be fun. But I'm starting to get a little tired of next gen updates. All old stuff in a newer guise. It's time for full-fledged games and successors. So bring on Mafia 4!
@Max_the_German Of course you understand that closing a studio is really not fun and that Jim Ryan is not solely responsible for this. A CEO is just a small figure who carries out assignments on behalf of higher ups.
