You know what's sad is that Sony told everyone they cannot put their games on their new service on day 1 because it would cut into their profits and prevent them from creating these exclusives. The problem is that it was a bold faced lie and you Sony defense force people fell for it hook, line, and sinker!

Sony just admitted without a doubt that their own businesses model cannot keep them afloat. How you ask?! They didn't say that! What hogwash am I spewing now? Wel...

Just more trash fake narrative from you. Don't you ever get sick of lying?
Best selling games all 3rd party. The only exclusives that are on the best selling of the decade are 2 Halos and some Nintendo games. 12 of the top 20 are Microsoft owned franchises. What's missing? That's right not a SINGLE PlayS...

You've seen the rest of their lineup for the year? Nice crystal ball you've got there . This is such a tired narrative. They have been delivering consistent quality so not sure what you're talking about. Just because you avoid the games does not mean they are not delivering quality
What bad games have they been releasing? Since you seem so sure Xbox games are not high quality, please enlighten me on what sub par quality titles that they have released? Just cuz you didn...

More false narrative 😂 check the list there's like one Sony game in there. You people who equate higher cost of development with better game are absolutely ridiculous. Cyberpunk 2077 was one of the most expensive games ever made. You all see how that turned out. But sure let's keep equating higher costs with better games &#...

Have you not been paying attention? They've got tons of AAA in the pipeline and they're all coming to Gamepass day 1. Sony has no excuse. It's just their way if conditioning their fanbase to pay more for less.

Thank heavens that Sony's big exclusives turn out so good or they'd be in a lot of trouble this gen. This narrative that they can't add their premium exclusives to PlayStation Plus Premium is complete hogwash and they know it. They could easily compete directly with Gamepass but they don't want to.

They are already worried that their business model is not sustainable, proven by their recent head first dive into the world of service games and microtransaction...

Ok, cuz personal experience means squat right?! Its facts that Fanboys just can't handle these days.

It's based on research and personal experience. The fact that you can go right now and buy an Xbox with Gamepass for $25 to $35 a month and never have to buy a game is huge. No up front $500 machine to purchase. No $70 games to buy. It's a much easier pill to swallow for families.

I know several families that have already done so. Some of whom were P...

Caw cawwww... Lots of crow incoming for you to eat. My family uses lots of free trials and dumps the paid ones in the 'off seasons.' the one sub we have kept around is Gamepass. And that's mostly because the sales where I buy 3-4 3 month cards for 20-25 a pop during Black Friday sales. I know several families that have also bought their Xbox thru the all access program. That includes Gamepass every single month. So 30 a month vs $550 up front for the system (tax) plus $70 per game...

Sony is undercutting themselves by investing so much into VR. That is a very very niche market that essentially forces them to spread themselves too thin. They're putting all this money into it and if it doesn't take off they're just wasting money. The original PSVR did not take off. I'm not sure what makes them think PSVR2 is going to take off like they expect. If they took the funding away from that they could easily put their premium games on the premium tier of PS Plus. I&...

This is another tired narrative. Sony has plenty of money to fall back on. They're using a psychological method to try to get people to think that their games are premium above all else and are worth the price of admission. And that right there is subjective.

They are banking on being able to nickel and dime people regardless of what the other guys are doing because of brand loyalty. That's only going to get them so far though. Especially when the real big Xbox pre...

I completely disagree with his sentiment. If they had their games on there day one, more people would subscribe and buy into the PlayStation ecosystem.

If it comes down to a choice between Xbox or PlayStation many families are going to go with the Xbox because of game pass. Not just game pass but also the ability to purchase the system with game pass included and pay over 2 years. That 25 to $35 a month for the system and the game pass with all the Xbox games day one and a...

No one ever said game pass was free. No one ever said they were playing Call of Duty on Game Pass for free. But personally I'm looking at the stack of Call of Duty games that my kids wanted the last 4 years and is $240 worth of Call of Duty games they won't play anymore cuz they want the newest one. Obviously nothing is free. You pay for the console you pay for the subscription you pay for the internet you pay for your housing etc etc etc. Its not free please show me where anybody is ...

One thing is for certain, Microsoft was very savvy with their Activision and Bethesda purchases. A lot of the Bethesda stuff will likely be exclusive but some of it will still be on PlayStation. Most of Activision stuff will still be on PlayStation.

The differentiator is going to be Game Pass versus PlayStation Plus extra. PlayStation is not going to put their games day and date on their service. That's fine because the audience that is purchasing those games will still...

They really should just delay it until the launch of the Switch 2! As good as Breath of the Wild was it was a fairly disappointing experience at times with the frame rate drops etc. The tech needs to catch up with the artistic vision.

Isn't it lovely!? The false narrative of this being bad for games is not holding any weight at all. I look back on most of the games I've played more than a few hours of on game pass and I own the majority of them. All game pass does is allows me to wait for it to go on sale! I still want to have ownership of the games I love. Game pass allows me to weed through all the BS.

Yeah it's pretty great deal honestly. Don't know why there's disagrees here! I'm really happy they included the game trials I hope they at least have 5 to 10 hour trial for all new release exclusives. Honestly a lot of PlayStation games are niche. Returnal for example I heard all this great stuff about it and so I went and spent 50 bucks on it and I just don't like it. Had I played a trial I would have seen it's just not my type of game.

Yeah I am totally down for it! It's a really great value and I'm glad Sony is jumping on board this ship. There are still some big exclusives that I'll buy day one, but knowing that eventually they will come to the service gives me peace of mind that I'm not missing out if I don't buy something on day one. Having been a game pass subscriber since day one I can absolutely see the value of this and this is going to save gamers a ton of money I only hope PlayStation fans embr...

The developers are loving game pass as it's giving light to games that might not have gotten it otherwise. Most people aren't seeing the psychology of it. Personally, if I really like a game I've tried on game pass I'm buying that game and game pass is giving me a discount for buying that game. Sure there are a lot of games that I'll play on game pass and beat the whole thing and never purchase it but there are many people out there who would purchase it anyway. And they s...
