It took too long for Sony and Microsoft to go the x86 route, but now that they have, we should see continuous backwards compatibility. And that means the desire to remain within your preferred ecosystem just like you said.
This was obvious back in 2013, though.
MeteorPanda, Google search "reddit ROMs Megathread" and you're set. And yes they are all vetted, safe, with no garbage ads.
The GBA and DS games could be their own collection. They don't fit under classic Sonic or 'Origins' monikers. The Genesis era games are easier to port because of fan gamers turned pro developers Christian Whitehead and Simon Thomly's "Retro Engine" which Sonic Team used (poorly) for this collection.
I'm playing Watch_Dogs right now, and the NPC writing is already so bad, it feels like it was written by a very rudimentary AI program as it is.
It's only going to get worse from here when they rely upon AI even more, and their games become even more souless than ever before.
I can't be the only person who still wants True Fantasy Live Online for the original Xbox. Right?
The game looked beautiful and sounded fun. It's an MMORPG where you didn't even have to battle enemies, you could just open up a shop in town to help other gamers out.

There are many worse Sonic games than this one:
Sonic Labrynth
Sonic Free Riders
Sonic the Hedgehog on GBA
Sonic mobile games (too many to list)
Sonic Rivals 1 & 2
Sonic Game Gear titles
There's more I'm forgetting. But yeah, lazy low-hanging fruit, quickly shat out worthless article without substance beating a dead horse that's already been beaten for the past 17 years isn't enough.
The price was originally $40 for the physical PS4 and XBO versions, but due to controversy it dropped down to $30 before launch. And as much as I love GZ, and even bought it twice, I do agree that $30 was too much. It should have launched at $20.

Konami is not making a comeback. Don't speak so prematurely about them yet. Let's PLAY some high quality games from them FIRST BEFORE we offer them any praise.
As for MGS remasters and ports are fine. But a new game would end up as a disaster and PR nightmare. A new MGS after the horrible breakup with Kojima would be insurmountable in the public's opinion.
Even if it were a good game (unlikely), people would just reject it and it'd flop ha...
People praise Nintendo sales numbers and quality first party games all the time on this site. Many people here don't even care for console gaming and are PC only gamers, praising their latest GPU purchases. Your selective memory isn't helping your case here.
Nope, Konami is still trash. They don't respect their employees, nor their IPs. They release garbage like Metal Gear Survive (which I admittedly played a lot of), the newest Contra game was pathetic as well.
A game company is nothing without TALENT! Over the past 15 years Konami's talented developers left the company. Now they have nothing left but their IPs, old source code for awesome classic games, and a ton of money from Pachislot. Meaning they are still worthle...
It's not just shutting down the online stores. It's the fact that you can't perform local back ups of your own save files that infuriated me. Something that has been available for decades. I hate those anti-consumer practices, and that's a large reason why I went full piracy on the Switch.
With homebrew I can back up and restore my save files as I should be able to without having to pay a fee. They do these BS practices to prevent piracy but all it does it p...
Shuhei was Excutive Producer on one of my favorite series, Ape Escape! I remember back in the early PS2 days Sony promoted him to being in charge of first party games, and I didn't know who he was at the time. After he got the job, Sony first party quality games greatly improved, especially their western output. He has played a critical role in improving the PlayStation brand and games. A well-earned award! Here's the list of his game credits.

Those have been my thoughts for years now. The Xbox brand started strong, I was a big fan of Xbox, bought it day one in 2001 with no regrets. Lots of good times, MS first party didn't always hit, but sometimes it did, and it was a worthwhile experience. To make things even sweeter was that they made deals with companies like SEGA for exclusive niche games that appealed to me. Panzer Dragoon Orta, Jet Set Radio Future, Gunvalkryie, Spikeout: Battlestreet, a...
Unfortunately, it was a joke, and it's not happening. More sites spreading misinformation without verification.

At this point, large third parties studios like Ubisoft, EA, Activision, Take-Two, etc are the companies I avoid the most. I hate the direction they have taken the industry in, and their games are no longer interesting to me. Touting that you'll have these big companies makes me not want to watch.
He can't. Calling developers lazy is one of the the most ignorant things you can do. Especially since the past 5 years has shined a light on the constant developer crunch that they go through just to get a broken game out the door for launch.
Devs work themselves non-stop, but hey, lets call them lazy, just because. 🥴
So I went to look this up, and no, that's misinformation. Its just the steelbook cases of the game, pre-order bonuses, not the actual game itself. It makes no sense to dump the game disc, when you could discount it instead and still make a profit.
Good game, was available on PS+, that's how I played it. The main issue were the crappy shoehorned QTEs. They had no place, served no purpose and actively made some parts of the game worse.
Hope we're done with crappy QTEs forever.
There is a difference between low entry price and "best value in gaming." The Series S on sale is a low entry price, however it is not a good value because it can't play my Original Xbox and Xbox 360 game discs. Having to re-buy Splinter Cell games, Panzer Dragoon Orta, Sonic Generations, Ninja Gaiden II, and many others even though I legally own them just to get the visual upgrades is a load of crap.
And since backwards compatibility is the main reason I'...
PS4 sold so well because Sony's competitors both nearly committed suicide with their pathetic offerings. I say this as a person who liked the Wii U, but it wasn't what people wanted in 2012. And only idiots wanted constant check-in DRM from Microsoft.
PS4 gained momentum so incredibly fast, it became the de-facto console to own from 2013 - 2020.
I believe PS5 will sell well, but it's facing stronger competition now, the Switch is a sales monst...
