Many years, people talked about Sony tactics and their attitude toward consumers. You can say that they are not active a lot to consumers like MS and not quality enough like Nintendo. And people can say that Sony is arrogant like others as well which is true. But here two reasons why Sony can stand their own and they always will:
Action speak lounder than words. Sony has been doing this since the beginning of PS. They only talk when it’s necessary.
Their direction are way different which is good thing. From beginning, they want to make sure game is always about fun but they can make a compelling story at the same time.
I want to it clear that Sony isn’t perfect. They made mistakes in the past and present and they will make mistakes again in the future. But they want to make sure entertainment always come first. Like I said before, Sony can stand their own.

"It is hard to believe that there would be a time that not only would the Western releases of The Legend of Heroes franchise manage to catch up to the Japanese releases of this incredibly lengthy franchise, but that the game’s that helped kick it off would be getting remade at the very same time. A few months ago we reviewed the fresh remake of Nihon Falcom’s Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter and now here we are, visiting the most recent release in a story featuring characters and plot elements spanning all the way from that very first game twenty-two years ago. It’s not often that a video game sequel requires full knowledge of its predecessors, and in many ways The Legend of Heroes tried to do that with Daybreak, but now that everything has gathered together in The Legend of Heroes: Trails Beyond the Horizon, players best be ready for the most character packed, lore heavy, game of the franchise since Reverie."
VGChartz's Lee Mehr: "While not carrying the same heft it enjoyed long ago, last year was one of the adventure genre's most commercially-successful years in this century. A Telltale-esque adventure eclipsing 3 million sales in three months would be the talk of the town were it not for another adventure game hurdling over 10 million sales in two. Though not all finalists reached those heights, each did share a greater amount of spotlight compared to similar titles within their respective sub-genres.
Past any sales thresholds and popularity contests, 2025 also deserves credit for its creativity; the last time our entire shortlist consisted exclusively of new IPs was for Best Adventure Game of 2020. An impressive year for the genre, with even greater potential ahead."
Inti Creates’ vibrant action platformer Majogami will shed its Switch console exclusivity and strike PS5 on 28th May, the Japanese dev has announced.
Actually Sony almost went under, its only saving grace is the performance of the PlayStation division, this gen. And that too is highly attributed to the debacle that the Xbox One reveal. So, I don't agree that Sony can stand its own.
Yes, PS made good decisions and made more of them.
What is this? Is this a rally of the troops or something?
SONY does put fun first in their video games.
Reading through this has actually been pretty tough. I'm not entirely sure what the overall message is. But good on you.
