I’m pretty indifferent about the showcase, but it’s amazing seeing what happens when the shoe is on the other foot
In MS’s showcases they get eviscerated on this site when they show games that are also coming to other platforms. But now all of a sudden it’s okay?
I don’t mean to call you out specifically, it’s more of a general trend on N4G
“On the go”
Doesn’t it stream only if you’re connected to the same wi-fi? I haven’t read the article yet, just going off other comments
Why will you be banned across all sites with single sign on?
Scores aren’t relative though. Just cause this is a 10 doesn’t invalidate other 10/10 games
I’ve logged in just to let you know this is the funniest thing I’ve read all day.
Big “they hurt themselves in their confusion” energy
@jerome
So if it’s on GP too close to release it hurts the devs, but 12 months is too old? When should games get added?
When was the last time you could buy PS+ for $1? Does that mean Sony was being a tyrant for offering it at full price this whole time?
I don’t understand the logic behind “company stops offering years-long $1 deal, they must be evil”
Your claim is technically correct but needs a big asterisk. Here’s the link:

Individuals who work at Microsoft donated $526,943 over the last 30 years. Microsoft as a corporation donated $2,875.
Just because someone donates doesn’t mean their place of work supports or ad...
Rest of your point stands, but does it matter that it’s ‘budget’? A good game is a good game, whether it’s indie or AAA
Which reviews were woke? I don’t recall reading any reviews for Days Gone when it came out, so this is the first I’m hearing about it
“Not coming directly to Gamepass”
That’s some fine hair splitting. If you have Game Pass Ultimate then you automatically have EA Access.
I would wager there are more Game Pass subscribers than solely EA Access subscribers, hence the articles looking at it through the lens of ‘coming to Game Pass’
“Name another publisher besides Nintendo”
Why can’t we name Nintendo? Surely that just answered your question
“ Because whole diversity idea while good itself, was perverted by entertainment industry, and do more harm, then good. By closing my wallet, i'm showing i don't accept the current state of things”
I don’t disagree with your sentiment, and I don’t want to sound like a jerk but did you read the article? Seems like it doesn’t fall into the usual bucket of a diversity checklist that other games have done.
The specific examples the author cites are an...
Why avoid the game?
I mean Stadia just completely shut down and they’re offering refunds to customers, so your comparison is objectively untrue
I dunno man, the context doesn’t really help it.
Jim was saying this as far back as 2019 and 2020 in discussing the plan for the PS5, which wasn’t known by the public at the time. People satire it these days because it was parroted at the time (on sites like N4G) as the ‘right’ approach to take, purely because of the flak MS was copping for planning cross-gen games.
Here’s how the author contextualises the original quote:
“ One way to k...
Can you find that quote? From memory the ‘exclusives’ quote was discussing DLC that was exclusive to one platform while the game is on multiple platforms (eg Destiny, or CoD or something). To my knowledge he wasn’t talking about exclusive games as a whole, right?
It’s still hypocritical because Xbox has done that before too, but I see other people misquote that all the time, so I wasn’t sure if that’s what you’re referring to or if it was another instance
“And this is why you can never believe a word that comes out of Phil's mouth”
What did he lie about?
When did they dig at Sony about this?
Agreed that they can’t manage Halo, what a shitshow.
Do you use Netflix to decide what movies to purchase too?
