Wanna talk about the profitability of Forza or Redfall?
8m is a number that will easily be made back when iR&C has been on the market as long as SO has, R&C will make more profit that SO ever will.
Why are you scared to have that information revealed?
You don't seem to have any problem discussing this leaked information about Sony.
They made a public statement, I think it's fair to make a comment on it.
I'd also be interested to know if this statement was part of a clause in whatever contract they signed with Microsoft.
I would like to see a breakdown of what Microsoft paid them vs what they made on other platforms through sales. That would be a tangible proof that this was the right decision.
Microsoft charges $20 for a Master Chief skin on top of battle passes and you're trying to make some kind of complaint about costs or whatever for what will likely be a full spin off game?
You guys are trying so hard to find even the tiniest piece of meat on some old desiccated bone.
But of course all this leak really shows is that Sony has their studios futures planned out not just to the next game but all the way into the middle of next generation...
So, Spider-Man which was their most expensive project which had only been on the market a few weeks has already paid back it's development costs and made nearly 1/3 of it's cost to develop in profits already...
Sounds good to me...
Do you think Redfall made back it's dev costs, how about Forza, has Starfield even made back it's 6+ year dev cycle costs yet?
Ya know, pretty much all this leak actually shows what a strong ...
They didn't even keep it exclusive though, (a mistake if you ask me) he was allowed to publish it on other platforms.
Extremely special treatment.
As far as I understand it, Sony game him an engine then helped fund Death Stranding including publishing it, while even letting him keep the rights to the game. Heck the time in between him leaving Konami and starting on Death Stranding were pretty much straight from one into the other, he left Konami fully in July then was working on DS in a new studio by December.
So uh I dunno how accurate this statement comes across.
Well obviously it's a big concern for them.
This shouldn't even be surprising, less surprising than the fact that Sony is outselling xbox 3:1 even when xbox is taking huge losses per console and in the year that was supposed to be their big comeback, on top of being down YoY after COVID.
PlayStation is up more consoles than xbox sold in the year, and not by a small margin either.
What a conveniently well timed take.
You're clearly avoiding talking about the controversial stuff.
Ya know like tying disk based games to your account or using always online kinect to spy on you and sell what you said to advertisers and who knows who else.
Xbox Series X|S
Down year-on-year 1,425,354 units (-20.2%)
PlayStation 5
Up year-on-year 7,079,586 units (65.3%)
PlayStation 4
Up year-on-year 19,271 (8.7%)
It's an organized smear campaign trying to damage the idea of ownership and push subscriptions.
I use a another website that collates all similar topics and ever one of these types of controversies we see aimed at PlayStation creates a bunch of fake websites, they are just a bunch of random characters with the topic to drive up the aggregators. Someone (i wonder who) is spending a lot of money to run a smear campaign.
This is around the fourth topic ...
You can look on PS1 disks and they have a no resale clause on them.
There was never a plan to do what Microsoft actually was doing which was have each game register a serial code from each disk to the account.
And on top of that Sony then added console sharing and account sharing which lets you allow people to use your console and allows you to share games bought on one console with friends and family.
The reality is Sony never planne...

This is the same thing it has always said this link goes back to 2014.
And you can find the same clause it virtually every publishers terms
It's not a fever dream that xbox has sold less consoles year after year even after covid ended and there aren't supply issues and can't even increase console sales while taking $200 losses per console sold.
Blade is going to play the best of PS5 Pro.the most powerful console and advanced console ever released!

Why do you think PS5 doesn't support FSR3? Every version of FSR we get people saying PS5 can't do it. PS5 had the first FSR1 game then it had the first FSR 2 game.
Please don't tell me you think it can't do FSR 3 because it doesn't have DX... because I remember before the launch there were people who thought PS5 wasn't going to do ray tracing because it didn't have DXR.
PlayStation doesn't n...
Yea, it's especially nice when your player counts are high because you were able to sell millions of copies of your game.
All i have to say about this hack is that Sony needs to start switching it's network off any Microsoft based software and mandate Mac or Linux for it's employees.
