It’s a good move, nothing can beat gamepass but Sony can’t afford day one releases and also Sony got better games.It still works but Microsoft is slowly catching up maybe will win next gen, no chance for this one
Best of the best:
Persona 3
FF7: Crisis Core
Also Virtua Tennis (and VIta Virtua Tennis) are still the best tennis games on Portable unless ur a big Mario fan
@mrtennis1990 so you prefer everyone to pay €80 for new games so shareholders won’t lose revenue? I think the prices are too high and will hurt revenues more in the long run
Too bad. Love the title. Thought it would be Skyrim set in Tokyo with Jujutsu Kaisen vibes. It’s a Microsoft studio now so they don’t really need the money, guess I’ll try it on heavy discount
Game director in twitter wrote that they’re now hiring in all positions for this project. Seems it’s in early development. Won’t be ready before 2027-28. What they were doing 7 years now. 12 year cycles between AAA games is longer than console generation cycles.
if there's a dark side path a la KOTOR i will purchase it on first discount (i won't spend $70 for a HP game although i bought the later books at launch)
Well that's a relief. Will preorder it actually. Could be much worst. ...lets say like The world ends with you final remix on Switch. Cost $49 for a port of a 15 year old DS game.
"At first, I was a little underwhelmed, in-race gameplay felt identical (to GT Sport), visuals felt very similar, and menus slightly disorientating". I spend like 8$ for GT Sport on sale. I can't afford to pay ten times that amount of money for next instalment. Maybe i will try it when there's price drop
@Tharsman why would anyone buy Xbox Series S if they release a $400 X? Unless they reduce pricing of S to $200 that's a bad deal (half the storage, even less the horsepower). One CoD game and you are near out of storage
PS now isn’t available in many parts of Europe and rest of the world, why pay more than game pass for less? I would pay to have all first part games in subscription after few months though,
We had some great games recently (SIFU, Aloy2, Elden Rings and upcoming GT) but none of them RPG's. Hope for a KOTOR release date! Also info about Persona 6 and XVI,
PS Now is not available in more than half of Europe. Like Xbox Cloud Gaming companies need to build new datacenters that will establish more cloud regions and that can take years. I would prefer Sony to make PS Plus a real Game Pass killer
Uncharted will be the most succesful movie based on a video game. Playstation Entertainment is a good thing for our beloved platform. Spidey and Uncharted success can help Playstation brand grow even more.
I havent touched my PS3 over 2 years now and well i got every game i need on Vita but still i think Sony should be better than Nintendo on online support and services and keep the stores open for a longer time. There are still great games in PS3 but if there are not discounts anymore it doesnt worth to pay as much
Don’t think first party AAA games will go under €40 anytime soon. NBA 2K got a pretty big discount, maybe it’s time to buy i don’t think we will see any huge graphic update anytime soon
Not all PS5 owners can afford to pay €80 for GT7, Elden Rings or new Aloy game. I think that’s a lot of money for a game. cyberpunk is cheap and pretty fun so far and got a decent story.
I’m still in early stages on first Horizon so I don’t plan to get the sequel before next Black Friday. It was a long wait for Cyberpunk, wonder how much storage it will need
I bought the game. I'm happy i didn't paid full price on it. I will install it when PS5 patch is available.e Lets hope good things are coming to those that wait.
Sony is having perfect relationship with most japanese game companies. They release so many exclusives on Playstation even though it sells less than Switch in Japan. One reason is that multiplatform in general sell better at PS. Another reason is that Sony treats the software partners right. Nintendo is like, oh well we don't really need u we got Mario and Pikachu. This ignorance bite them in the ass during N64, GC (well with GC its the only time they really tried) and Wii U era
@munstre I want to support AAA games but I think prices are not exactly fair for the customers. You can almost buy a cheap android phone with that much money. I will wait for a discount
What’s the point? A multiplayer FPS that will remain multi platform? I mean ok we’re losing overwatch and cod (prob) but we still got Fortnite’s. Dunno if they can make another halo
I bought the original on PC, didn't own a Playstation (was many cd-roms). Haven't heard anything about the series but i thought the name and cover art was so cool. The game was a buggy mess on PC. Had some serious compatibility issues, wasn't able to run it properly. Thats one good thing about consoles. You don't have to worry about these things.
@Teddie-bear i think this make more sense as a Switch part-time exclusive. The first one is still pretty great though if u play it on PS Vita's screen
Most people buy consoles and only play COD or FIFA (in Europe) in them. Most people are calling Xbox Series S a dedicated COD machine with game pass as an extra. Like Gameboys were just Pokémon machines for most casuals back in the day. I think Sony will still win this gen though, but most cause of the PS4 momentum
I wouldn't mind paying extra to get all first party games at day one. Sony will bleed financially but even Microsoft can't afford to spend billions like that forever. They pulled out of mobile race when they realised they couldn't win Google
I think only infinity ward (one of the studios) COD matters. So will have one from them next year and we won’t have to worry about next one till 2025. Plenty time to get some killer FPS to soften the gap, If we’re all alive and well we can always buy a XBOX Series 2 if it comes to this
@vapidwolf1 Yes but they are getting better. Forca Horizon 5 seems like a true next gen experience by everyone standards even if ur not a racing fan and Diablo or next gen "Skyrim" are very important titles in gaming
Ofc they have a huge problem. Gamepass is turning into a Netflix/Spotify for games. Sony is still offering its AAA games for 80$. Its like iTunes vs Spotify model. Even if Sony games are better gamepass model will prevail in the long run. Sony can't really afford to offer something as good as Gamepass. Microsoft is bleeding money rn but they make it up from other divisions. But Sony should offer something like Gamepass lite for selected titles. They will have to say bye bye to short term profits but its more important to stay on the game.

Re: Poll: Does Sony Need to Take Action After Microsoft's Activision Buyout?
Ofc they have a huge problem. Gamepass is turning into a Netflix/Spotify for games. Sony is still offering its AAA games for 80$. Its like iTunes vs Spotify model. Even if Sony games are better gamepass model will prevail in the long run. Sony can't really afford to offer something as good as Gamepass. Microsoft is bleeding money rn but they make it up from other divisions. But Sony should offer something like Gamepass lite for selected titles. They will have to say bye bye to short term profits but its more important to stay on the game.
