wukong 81 on metacritic the lowest rated game ever for the goty award it has zero chance of winning the award since the highest rated game ususally wins the award..
even for a remake of a game which has been released multiple times in japan over the decades it still shows dragon quest is king in japan.. these sales blew away my expectations..dragon quest 3 hd-2d for the switch even outsold super mario wonder it's first week in japan.
bloodborne was made by fromsoft but sony was the publisher of the game so they need each other to remaster or remake the game so if sony buys the company no more impediment..
last year switch console sales were down but last year sony had record console sales so it makes sense they would drop this year.. xbox console sales are irrelevant.. they are not competing in the console wars..
seems switch game sales is out of favor for most us gamers with the exception of the occasional big nintendo game..quite a difference compared to japan..
famitsu has weird scoring looking back at other games they only gave a masterpiece like astrobot bot a 36/40 while they gave splatoon 3 a 39/40 score which it did not deserve..
already the woke crowd is upset at a female protagonist in yotei. they are shocked. they cant believe female samurai existed maybe they should read history female samurai were around in the 12th century onward.. as well as assassins..
i read the last of us remastered sold 18 million copies.people will buy these remastered games..i often buy remastered games i have never played before.. there is a good market for these games..
@nessisonett cant say there is a correlation astrobot came out last friday sony ps5 trailer was tuesday it had nothing to do with the ps5 pro debacle..
