Sony has legacy IPs that they could bring back up from the graves. Legend of Dragoon, Jak and Dexter, Ape Escape, Siphon Filter, SOCOM. The whole problem is they tend to forget IPs and move on
The only thing I want is that Sony actually buy the rights and IP of Konami's like Castlevania, MGS, Silent Hill and Suikoden because Konami doesn't give a crap so at least give it to somebody who does
@BlueOcean That just proves my concerns, is the PS4 going to able to run these games at least stable 30fps, I mean some games are already having problems running on the OG PS4 right now.
Wrong move for Sony IMO, Even Nintendo doesn't even do this LUL
@Fenbops there was also rumors that Microsoft was also having problems running Halo Infinite on the OG Xbox One, seems like they're cutting support for it
Nintendo seems the only guy around the block that wants to utilize the most out of new tech
@Fenbops I mean they're gonna do a lot more with the sequel and seeing the trailer looks more that the game is gonna have water and air exploration, I'm not worried about the graphics but the CPU of the PS4 is so damn old I'm afraid that can it at least run at solid 30fps?
I'm gonna be very surprised if the game can be RUN on the base PS4, the base model already can't run some games smoothly and this would really push it over the limit
@Kidfried I travel across Asia for my work and this year truly is the weirdest for me. My friend who worked with got Covid from an Uber Eats driver and luckily he survived
People also have to consider that Xbox's Console Market and Service is not going to be even available in a lot of markets around the world, while Playstation have grounds in even 3rd world countries
You can hardly find an Xbox in most regions and if you do, people still won't consider it because of how popular Playstation/Nintendo is
Not worried, the Playstation brand is certainly strong enough that it won't matter what pricing the competition brings. Especially in Asia where it's Playstation dominant centric
IMO just show us the launch lineup and the price, it'll sell regardless
@Spyroescape With emulation yes, Piracy is also a factor in that case. I could just download the emulator and pirate their games and play on it. There would be no need for me to buy a Switch then
@Richnj Wrong as hell, brand recognition and loyalty does nothing and is totally a minority of the whole user based. IPhones sells because of iOS an operating system that exclusive to that one product , Apple is willing to even remove Fortnite from the App Store just because it didn't want to commit to its ecosystem
The software and ecosystem is why people commit to it, Apple knows this to very well and Nintendo too
There is a BIG reason why Pokemon is a system seller for Nintendo Devices, there is no other place you can play it on
@Richnj Why do Apple products sell very well despite being expensive? There is a reason why Playstation 4 was so successful this gen and why the Switch did so well too
@LiamCroft Unrelated but I remember reading somewhere (a very very long time and I forgot where) that FromSoft was developing a sequel to Bloodborne or something like it exclusively for PS but in "Aztec setting or design", it was a rumor that kinda became dead
My question is, have you heard of this rumor and what happened to it or was it fake?
I'm kinda sad we didn't get SMTV on PS, I hope we get it even if it takes a year to wait, I have a Switch but damn would like to play an SMT game on PS console
There was an article I read about the kinda of "bad affects" of the faster SSD's being loading screen having important tooltips but developers could just extend it a bit or just make it a togglable option
Good investment but also think Sony should invest more in their Online Network Infrastructure especially PSN, A lot of possibilities they should consider it to make the Playstation brand more solid in the future
In the far future when there will be no Playstation Consoles anymore, they have to have something that'll keep the spirit of the brand alive in some shape or form
Spider-man is just a mantle like Batman, it's a more of a Symbol rather than someone in the suit. I'm glad we'll get a game about Miles for once, fresh new perspective
They have to take a loss per unit IMO, it's regarding how this gen is about content and price rather than specs. It's definitely hard but in the long run, I think they'll succeed

Re: Hands On: This Is How Cyberpunk 2077 Runs on PS5, PS4 Pro, and PS4
I thought all the delays were for the Next-Gen patch, but I guess I'll wait next year for the PS5 patch and play it on PC for the meanwhile
Re: Days Gone Gets Huge 25GB Update Ahead of PS5
I would imagine the sequel being on the PS5 would be amazing, the horde would be like 3x times the size given with the SSD
Re: Football Manager 2021 Is Not on PS5, PS4 Because Sony Didn't Send Devkits
@get2sammyb Wait, so they didn't get a PS4 Dev kit? That's really weird since SEGA owns them, pretty sure it should be that easy
Re: Football Manager 2021 Is Not on PS5, PS4 Because Sony Didn't Send Devkits
Couldn't you play it with BC right?
Re: The Internet Thinks Microsoft Will Buy SEGA Next
Find it hilarious that some of these comments made their "account" today just to comment on this ONE article and then leave XD. It's really sad to see
Re: Rumour: Metal Gear Solid Is Getting a Full Remake, and It's a PS5 Console Exclusive
THIS!, I told you all yesterdy that I wanted for Sony to AT LEAST buy the IP rights of MGS, Castlevania, Silent Hill, Suikoden and other Konami's IP.
Resurrect old IPs and develop new teams working on it!
Re: Reaction: Bethesda Acquisition Is a Kick in the Balls for PS5, But Sony's Goals Won't Change

Wrong move for Sony IMO, Even Nintendo doesn't even do this LUL
Re: Horizon Forbidden West Is Coming to Both PS5 and PS4
@Fenbops I mean this is just a rumor that has been going around for a while, no confirmation but this was it
I mean if the rumors of Halo Infinite can't run on the OG Xbox One, I'm really worried for Horizon Forbidden West running on the OG PS4
Re: Horizon Forbidden West Is Coming to Both PS5 and PS4

Re: Demon's Souls PS5 Gameplay Trailer Looks Absolutely Stunning
@TheNewButler Thanks and my god what are they doing? I thought they own the rights to Demon Souls? A serious mistake on PS for doing this
Re: Demon's Souls PS5 Gameplay Trailer Looks Absolutely Stunning
@TheNewButler Can I get the link? That would surprise me they are doing this soon at the start of the gen
Re: PS5 Price, Release Date Confirmed: 12th November in US, 19th in EU, $499 Standard, $399 Digital

Re: PS5 Price, Release Date Confirmed: 12th November in US, 19th in EU, $499 Standard, $399 Digital
@AFCC I'm pretty sure it's because of Covid-19, I'm pretty sure they original plan is for it is to go Worldwide
Re: PS5 Price, Release Date Confirmed: 12th November in US, 19th in EU, $499 Standard, $399 Digital
Called it, The price is perfect. It's gonna sell like hotcakes in Asia, especially the Digital version
Re: PS5 Price May Dip Below $400, Analyst Speculates
Nah, That would be a huge loss, and aren't they already selling at a loss per console? 499$ and 399$ for Disc and DE is already a fine price.
But if Sony is really trying to go all-in, this really shows that they aren't playing around this gen
Re: Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake Confirmed for PS4, Coming January 2021
Looks like vomit but It's a sacrifice I'll wiling to make for this IP
Re: Immortals Fenyx Rising Lands on PS5, PS4 3rd December, First Look at Gameplay
Looks like the best parts of BoTW and that's great, I'm actually excited for a Ubisoft game for once

Re: Sony's PSVR Reveals This Week Aren't Proving Popular
I can only assure you that no matter how low pricing the Xbox Series S is, it'll tank in the Asia market
People just do not care about Xbox whatsoever here, PS5 could cost triple the price and it would still sell
People often forget about the strong brand presence Playstation have

Where have I heard this before? Hmmm
Re: Mini Review: Nexomon: Extinction - With an Update or Two, This Could Be a Solid Pokémon Clone
IMO, Digimon is the closest and has better Battle System and Story than Pokemon franchise
but Digimon's isn't that popular in the west

Re: Don't Panic, But More PlayStation Exclusives Will Come to PC
@rachetmarvel Sony would rather port their exclusive games on PC with no DRM than actually trying to improve the PS ecosystem
They could be focusing so much more on improving PSN, PS Plus and PS Now, making people subscribe more into their ecosystem
Re: Don't Panic, But More PlayStation Exclusives Will Come to PC
If this keeps going, the only console I'll own is Nintendo. At least they understand the importance of Exclusivity.
If Playstation keeps this up then bye2, best be pirating their games on PC then
Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Dated for 13th November, PS5 Upgrade Costs More
I haven't played a COD game since the original Black Ops back in 2010, I might just grab this just for the campaign alone.
Certainly will wait for the review but intriguing nonetheless
Re: PS5 Launch Window Has the 'Best Line-Up We've Ever Seen in the History of PlayStation'
Give Demon Souls on launch day and it's a wrap, The Souls community will be buying the console just for the game
Re: WB Montreal Just Can't Stop Teasing New Batman Game
@TheFrenchiestFry Pretty sure it's coming to current and next-gen consoles and PC.
Re: WB Montreal Just Can't Stop Teasing New Batman Game
@Brydontk Agreed, Fortnite usually does in-game event skins coinciding with other releases
Re: There's Been a Big Scandal About Whether PS5 Can Run Games in 4K
People keep arguing over 4K60fps while I'm here happy that the console loads faster, bigger battery for the controller and hopefully be quieter
If I want power I'd just play my PC
Re: Don't Expect an Elden Ring Reveal Tomorrow
@Makina The false rumor was that it wasn't a sequel but something akin to Bloodborne with focus on fighting mechanic in an Aztec culture setting
but it was false as I suspected, but I am boggled why Sony isn't asking FS to do something again seeing that BB was successful
Re: Don't Expect an Elden Ring Reveal Tomorrow
@LiamCroft Thanks, then I am positive the rumor was fake then

Re: Rumour: Next PS5 Event Pegged for 6th August, But We're Not Convinced
Counter the price and lower the price of PS Plus, If they do that it's over.
There is still time to strategize and I hope Sony is well prepared because this time is different
Re: Cult Classic JRPG Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne Is Being Remastered on PS4 in 2021

Re: Ghost of Tsushima's Shockingly Short Load Times Were Originally Even Quicker

Re: Xbox Boss Implies PS5 Exclusives Are 'Counter to What Gaming Is About'
Hey Phil, Nintendo has been doing this for years and their games still sell regardless
Let Phil run his mouth, the numbers proof which is working and which isn't
Re: Sony Pumps $250 Million into Fortnite Maker Epic Games
Good investment but also think Sony should invest more in their Online Network Infrastructure especially PSN, A lot of possibilities they should consider it to make the Playstation brand more solid in the future
In the far future when there will be no Playstation Consoles anymore, they have to have something that'll keep the spirit of the brand alive in some shape or form

ALSO, this was teased as Task Force X back in Batman: Arkham Origins credit scenes
Re: Suicide Squad PS5 Is Rocksteady's Next Game, New Batman Game Is Gotham Knights, Says Report
Love the SS, usually, the government pays Amanda Waller to get the bad guys to kill the other bad guys but this time the JL? Quite interesting
Re: Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales Is a 'Full Story Arc' with New Villains
Spider-man is just a mantle like Batman, it's a more of a Symbol rather than someone in the suit. I'm glad we'll get a game about Miles for once, fresh new perspective
Re: Warner Bros' Gaming Division Appears to Be Up for Sale
@Rob_230 They still have to pay for those IPs, because WB owns it not WB games
Re: Warner Bros' Gaming Division Appears to Be Up for Sale
I was expecting Rocksteady's DC game for PS5 reveal yesterday, They are working on it for a long ass time now
Re: PS5 Price: Sony Emphasising Value for Next-Gen Format
They have to take a loss per unit IMO, it's regarding how this gen is about content and price rather than specs. It's definitely hard but in the long run, I think they'll succeed
Re: GTA V Is Coming to PS5 with an Enhanced Edition, GTA Online Free for PS Plus Members
@Flaming_Kaiser I am sick of GTAV but it sells like hotcakes so yeah this is will boost PS5 sales no doubt about it
This, new COD, new FIFA, NBA and Fortnite will be the main attraction for average consumers to buy PS5, I hate it but business is business
