So someone finally ran the math behind it.
That's a crazy amount of value in a $120/yr subscription - but also necessary, look at Netflix for example, you have to pump these subscriptions full of great content to get the initial numbers up / get people hooked.
That's huge... I wonder what it's going to be on PS4...
Could be interesting - worse compression + asset duplication, but smaller assets.
Those sound like good predictions.
I'm still amazed at how well Nintendo managed to turn it around after the WiiU - and that's coming from someone who was initially very skeptical of the Switch.
I've tried out a colleague's OLED - I think it's worth it if you game a lot with it in portable mode - the screen looks spectacular.
If you're like me, and 99.999% of the time game in docked mode, it's not worth it.
I mean, they're not really 'losing' it.
1. It's totally out with their control, even if they want to fix it, they cannot.
2. If you want a PS5 today and can't find one, you're still going to buy one in 6 months or whenever you see one.
They'll get their money, it's just a question of when.
Not a headline I really expected to read, but congrats to the team.
I do think GP is great, and I'd love for Sony to create something similar. Why is it a bad thing to want better services/subscriptions and better bang for our buck? It's not - we as consumers should always be pushing for more, not sitting back and being lax - that's how you end up with 100% price increases for XBL Gold and $70 games, ugh.
I don't only complain about PS5, I love my PS5s. I give credit where credit is due, and criticize where criticism is due....
@Mr_Writer85 Sony are a huge corporation, they have enough money to please PS5 early adopters.
@ocelot07 I said recurring theme, not that it happens 100% of the time. We've seen other games not include the upgrade - even as recent as this month with Mortal Shell.
@eonjoy You do realize it's OK to criticize corporations right? You don't have to blindly love a company just because you bought their product. I will happily criticize any company I ...
@Mr_Writer85 I agree they shouldn't abandon PS4 gamers, and I'm not suggesting they do. They should support PS5 and PS4 customers.
@RauLeCreuset I've been clear from the start that I believe they should support PS5 properly with PS+. Not sure what's so hard for you to understand there - and I say we because I am likely not the only PS5 owner in the world :)
"You complain they aren't giving you the best, but you hand wave away them...
@RauLeCreuset
Well each to their own - I've moved on from PS4 (minus a few backlog games) and expect PS+ to match my current console. Also, the game is a free upgrade for anyone who bought the PS4 version so I expect the same via PS+.
PS+ collection is good for 'new to Playstation' gamers, but if you had a PS4 then you likely had the games in there. If you had a PS4 and weren't playing the 1st party exclusives & big hitters like RE7......

@blackblades It is Sonys decision what games are in PS+ and the associated budget - not the developer.
It’s simple - we pay a lot for PS+ and I expect the PS5 upgrades to be included.
Unfortunately this doesn’t just apply to FF though - we’ve seen other many games exclude the free upgrade - far cheaper games than FF.
They should go all out or don’t bother - half baked solutions aren’t good. I want to play the best versions via PS+ otherwise why subscribe if ultimately I’m going to have to buy the PS+ games separately anywhere?
They just...
This isn’t the same as a game going on sale at all. This was offered via PS+ and at the time no PS5 upgrade was included, now that has retroactively changed.
Hard to blame Square when this is a recurring theme with PS+ games nowadays.
Finally. It should’ve been from day one - but better late than never.
Sucks for those who paid for it though.
@Omegasyde but it’s still not “great” like he claimed previously…
“ You should know Rare use to be one of my favorite developer (top 5) when I was younger until Microsoft acquired them. Microsoft changed them”
But that’s the developer, not an existing game. RAREs old games are still great.
How has the game gone from great to mediocre? What changed in the last few years!? The game hasn’t that’s for sure.
Still makes no sense 🤷
But it was great before (according to you), so what changed that made it go from great to mediocre?
