@tallythwack With the help of Google you can easily find a list of studios that Sony owns. A lot of them have released games for all sorts of other systems.
They are not better than MS, they simply have less money
Sony takes away from others as well. They bought studios that have released multiplatform games in the past. They do bribe studios to keep their games exclusive for a year+. They do what MS is doing, but on a budget. Defending Sony is just as foolish as defending MS.
@Gooseman42 Actually you don't realize that you are a part of a niche community. VR is still nowhere near good looking or running(unless you are on PC) to impress me or countless others. I have tried Alien Isolation, Skyrim and Alyx and imo the juice is not worth the squeeze. Unless VR games start getting much more complex I would rather play on my TV.
Seeing as how Sony locked up ***** games like Deathloop and Ghostwire it's only obvious that they tried to do something with Starfield and presumably ES6
The one thing that bothers me is that the game has to drop down to 720p internally to maintain 60hz during combat. Maybe we do need PS5 pro for those who want higher fps.
I am starting to get really disappointed with the PS5. The guy from Digital Foundry said that the game upscales from 1080p to 4k and even drops lower during combat. And they are still pretending that only the PS5 has an SSD which is hilarious.
@thefourfoldroot1 I have enjoyed many types of games throughought my life, but enough is enough. Starfield, Red Dead 2 are the types of games that people should simp for not indie titles. There are plenty of non indie, open world games that are awful like AC and FC. It has nothing to with simply scope, but ambition and creativity.
@Hoodie718 Those types of games are always welcome, but they won't turn the PSVR2 into a must own device that will push VR forward. I just don't understand why you are okay with stagnation. We must constantly demand bigger and better games that offer less and less restrictions.
@thefourfoldroot1 I only have Quest 2 and I am frustrated by both Meta and Sony about how weak their commitment to VR is. If you continue doing the bare minimum you won't get the number of people you want over the hump. Just compare the titles that are coming to the PS5 and to the PSVR2. Now realize that the latter is costs twice as much and you can't connect it to a PC.
@Hoodie718 With that mentality VR will never grow. You are shooting yourself in the foot right at the start of the race. People won't simply use whatever you make. You need to earn their money and time.
@get2sammyb Maybe if there was more noise out there Sony would put more effort into their VR division so it can sprint instead of limp until the PS6 is out.
@thefourfoldroot1 You don't get COD and FIFA because God of War and Last of Us are so successful. It's actually the opposite. If the PSVR2 had massive titles to pump the numbers up that would allow studios to get the greenlight to start working on AAA games for the device just like there are many studios releasing big SP games for the regular consoles. It's really not rocket science.
@Hoodie718 How can there be people in 2023 who still don't realize that people who are active on forum sites are the minority of users. Sony, Microsoft, Nintendo would go all out of business if they catered to us
@thefourfoldroot1 Actually you baffle me right now. The PS5 is a closed of system with a lot of limitations. it lives and dies by the big hitter games like COD, FIFA and to a lesser the extend the ~2 SP AAA game that Sony releases annually. The PSVR2 doubles the limitations, doubles the price and you are happy with less big games on the horizon? You live in a different reality.
@get2sammyb What exactly is the endgoal of the PSVR2? To be even more niche than the PSVR1? To leave no footprint on the medium? You can't possibly expect millions of people to look at the price tag, the roadmap and decide to invest.
@Hoodie718 Number of games doesn't mean anything. COD, FIFA, Last Of Us is what sells, not indie and AA stuff.

@Shad361 When you already lose the interest of millions I guess that you can comfort yourself by saying 'Well at least that can't happen again'
Re: AEW: Fight Forever (PS5) - A Superkick Party Pooper Fit for Elite Fans Only
@Shad361 Wrong. Ratings have been declining since 2001. There are no more stars

So many 'financial experts' in the comments. If SE are disappointed then the product didn't meet their expectations and that's that.
Re: New Korean Rating for Red Dead Redemption Has Fans Hoping for a Remaster
Modders tried to remaster the PS3 version through some RPCS3 black magic, but Rockstar shut it down. A current gen version is 100% in the works.

@WizardJ Actually the x360 was kicking ass, but then they decided to do more casual kinect type games.

@number1024 They can be bought tomorrow you silly goose
Re: "We've Lost the Console Wars," Says Trillion Dollar Underdog Xbox
They kinda defeated themselves midway through the 360 generation. Before that they were spanking Sony with Halo and Gears.
I hope that when they acquire ABK they focus on SP games, but MP will always make more money.
Re: Sony 'Can't Risk' Sharing PS6 Details with a Microsoft-Owned Activision
Might as well don't share details with any studio that you don't own then.

@thefourfoldroot1 The problem with your post is that the selection of games and roadmap is a recipe for disappointing sales.
