@AdamCorela
Of course they want to, because 25 million users is nothing to write home about. And if you put gp on Playstation you have 3 times that at once. What a stupid company MS is. Basically they want to make CoD xbox exclusive. But if we are allowed to put Gamepass on Playstation, Playstation owners can also continue with CoD on Playstation. disgusting development. I really hope the UK and EU put a stop to it. Everyone can see what Microsoft is after. Sony is just 1000% right.
@CielloArc haha are you serious? did you really expect Sony to give money for previously won trophies? Of course it doesn't work that way. Although it would have been nice of course. Why do companies nowadays have to do everything retroactively? Sony is a company that are not there to please us.
@IonMagi
That is not really a reliable source, only the name Riskmonster says it all. And all Sony divisions just make a profit. Better than ever. 15 years ago it was a bit less. but that's why they've divested divisions like the Vaio division. Sony pictures just makes a profit with Spider man, Ghostbuster and Uncharted as an example. Did they want to earn more with those films? of course! I also hope every month that I win the state lottery and earn more. But unfortunately not yet succeeded. And what good is it if Sony goes bankrupt? Thousands of people around the world are just going to lose jobs. The fact that Sony makes a game that you (and I) are not waiting for is not the reason that a billion-dollar company is allowed to go bust. We have nothing to do with that. And Sony is also very big in Asia in the financial world. They have banks and insurance companies. Which also rake in a lot of yen. So Sony really doesn't have to bite the bullet. We just don't buy Horizon Zero Dawn remaster. Problem solved. But I don't need to tell you how many people bought TLOU1 ps5 edition. So Sony really knows what they are doing.
@IonMagi I understand that a remaster of hzd makes no sense. But Sony is bankrupt? They make a profit every year. The only department that is a bit limp are mobile phones. Do you have any idea how big Sony is worldwide? Much more than just Playstation. But give me a source of those financial reports showing that Sony is doing so badly. I mean if you claim something you have to provide proof.
A spokesperson said: "It makes zero business sense for Microsoft to remove Call of Duty from PlayStation given its market leading console position." Finally someone with sense and an eye for the future at Microsoft.
@BritneyfR_ee This is an honest opinion that I share. The game itself is really fantastic, but the price is not. So I think a lot of people are waiting for a good price cut. Because for newcomers to Playstation, this is of course a game that you should not miss. If you are talking about Sony and exclusives in one sentence, this is what it is about.
@IonMagi That is indeed correct. But even then, everyone can make out from this what Microsoft intends to do with the acquisition. And that is simply not good to say. I don't play CoD myself and personally I don't care at all what happens to Activision. But I do think that they leave Playstation owners out in the cold in this way. At least those who play CoD then.
@IonMagi Desperate? I think that's okay. I think Phil this is before. He is now doing everything he can to make the Activision deal go through. So lie too. Because several years is different from 3 years. Playstation owners are therefore simply screwed hard if this takeover goes through. It should be clear that Mr. Spencer is playing dirty and throwing all rosy stories online when nothing is right. And so rightly so that Jim Ryan "corrects" this, nothing desperate about it but just honesty.
Not Yet, i love the series. But wait for a price drop. As much as I like to support Sony, and that has been a lot of euros. I'm still waiting for a price drop.
@Shepherd_Tallon
They should add 12 months of ps plus. that way it's win-win. they get the 50 euros for components anyway and there is a chance that people will renew ps plus. And for some people who don't have it wide, that eases the pain a bit. If I were Jim I would. But I don't think Jim Ryan is doing this all on his own. Some people seem to think so.
@NEStalgia haha in that case you are right my friend But I don't think they imitate but Nintendo, Sony etc are big companies and they just want to make money and are not our friend. But sometimes I feel like people think they're charities. And dont get me wrong. I also grew up in the 80s. And I love Nintendo, but those prices🤔
@Far_Cide Yes of course digital games have to be slightly more expensive than disc games. If digital games are cheaper than disc games, the stores that sell physical games are screwed. Because then everyone buys digitally and they ignore physical versions
@NEStalgia funny you accuse Sony of ripping people off. Just look all your avatar. If there is one company in the world who rips people off with prices..
6 billion dollars?? Lol the UK is the new US they're really lost it or does it just seem that way? No one is obliged to buy games. Unless you buy a ps5 without a disc drive. But Xbox has that just as well. You can also just wait for a game to go on sale. And I think Xbox games are just as expensive. And if there is one company that exploits consumers in terms of price, it is Nintendo! Sell old games for the full blow. No, it's not that bad at Sony. Often enough offers in the store. This is a frustrated little lawyer who can't win lawsuits in the normal way so they're going to try this. Fortunately, Sony itself also has an army of lawyers who make mincemeat of these kind of scammers. Or would he give that 6 billion to charity and take no commission. Of course you can.
@get2sammyb
Why? because the game comes out on PC? There are a lot of Playstation exclusives coming out on PC, so why not this one? And let's face it, I don't think this game would sell many numbers on PC. So via gamepass is a nice bridge to still play the game if you want to. And I'm guessing Microsoft has donated some money to Sony to get this done. Sony is really not a stupid company, on the contrary...And be honest, you know that with such texts you provoke spicy discussions and so article clicks = money.
Jesus guys we are on the road for 2 months, wait a while and we'll judge in a year. always immediately score klibaits while nothing is wrong yet. maybe they are still upgrading for premium. Since Sony recently filed patents for improved emulation.
@LiamCroft Well that could be, but when I look at myself I always look good in the store. I always filter through that cheap junk and take the time to really study indies I like.
I still prefer a console. Especially as a father with 3 children, the convenience of a Playstation or an Xbox is great. I think a PC is too much trouble. Costs a lot more money than a console. I'd rather spend that money on games or a nice holiday with my wife and daughters. I also want to be able to keep an eye on my children at all times. And when I'm behind a PC, it's more difficult than behind a Playstation. No hassle with upgrades, video cards, error messages. Just buy the game, download it and play it with a beer at my side when i,m alone in the evening. I love that convenience. And that's why I'm pretty sure consoles will never go away, and Sony knows that. A few years ago, PC was on the brink of death. So it's not that great anymore. And with a big 4K TV of €4000 and a PS5 I conjure up very beautiful things. And the best part is that that TV is a one-time investment that I can use for a long time
@Would_you_kindly I really hope this has something to do with the patents for the "new emulators" maybe a bunch of premium titles coming out in 1 or 2 months at once. Personally I don't care about premium I have everything for €60 for a year.
@Gh05tm4ch1n3 ps plus did also receive 17 games previous month and Yakuza? learn to read.There are plenty of AAA games on plus. And again you mention the only 2 first party titles that have been added in 2 years. whooptidoo
Dont find gamepass bad, its pretty nice. But ps plus is only here for 2 months and the games that Sony adds are very good.
And this month plus essential line up are bangers. I'm not a big fan of RTS, shooters or racing. That's why I don't have an Xbox. Used to be a 360 for Fable. And that's the only Xbox series I like. Playstation has a lot more to offer in terms of games for me.
Don't buy those games. Problem solved But please do something on the search list!!
But Nintendo, Xbox and steam are also loaded with this trash. So its not only Sony here.
It is a pity that there is no explanation in the text. As I am used to here of course . This is about an investigation by the Brazilian watchdog. And they want to know how the competition views the takeover. In addition to Sony, for example, they have asked Ubisoft and Warner Bros exactly the same.
@Jaberwocky I get your point, but remember that there are a lot of people who have never played this game. PS5 newcomers for example. And that is a great opportunity because this is really a top game.
I think this will be a PS Plus title in September. And that would be perfect. But I really wouldn't pay $70 for this. It looks great, but not mind blowing.
@Flaming_Kaiser yes exactly the same for me. Never encountered any issues with Playstation and always super friendly and helpful. It probably differs per country.
Why a cashgrab? You don't want it? Don't buy it. Neither Naughty dog nor Sony demand that you buy it. I don't need it either, but definitely worth it for new Playstation owners.
@Crabbitsteve Messiah? LoL, because of the game pass "glitch"? This is what we call smart marketing. I recently read somewhere that Microsoft is going to tackle this stacking. No idea which site. But that will also change in the future
@Voltan
I am currently playing deliver us the moon. I am really surprised by this game. Really recommended in my opinion.

@thefourfoldroot1 haha honest answer. I'm also really curious about PSVR2. But I personally think that the number of games you can choose from with extra or premium is fine. They can never make everyone happy. And not everything will be your personal taste. But you can't say that Sony doesn't give you a choice to play. But for people who only have essentials, isn't this a great month?
@Americansamurai1 I'm not a fanboy, but some people just whine. You pay 60 euros per year and receive 100 euros in games this month alone. And with extra or premium even more. When Xbox gives out duplicate games that are already on gamepass you never hear anyone complain but when Sony do it oh oh!
@Americansamurai1 yes, because if you have extra or premium you automatically also have essentials. well observed comment again. Are we going to get this whining every month? sigh
I find it really weird with some people sometimes. that auto renewal is always turned off by default, I really have to turn it on myself to make use of it. Is that perhaps because of the legislation in Europe? Or is it different in my case in the Netherlands?
