We aren't shareholders, but that doesn't mean they don't effect us gamers. Many people's favorite IPs have been cancelled/abandoned because shareholders weren't happy with results. His/her outlook could be more sales equals happy shareholders, happy shareholders mean continued investment, continued investment equals prolonged gaming, etc.

Perhaps do an account, IP, and HWID ban (multiple). Make it harder, expensive for the cheaters, not regular people trying to play your game. What do you think is easier to circumvent, getting a new mobile number via spoofing or buying/spoofing multiple hardware devices.

Why not play a different game? Seems like they don't want you to play their game. You should oblige them.

Even if it will take Sony 3-5 years to "catch up", do Xbox gamers think that's a long time? How long have they been waiting for Microsoft to "catch up" to Sony in regards to consistent, quality AAA output? I'm sure Playstation gamers will be fine for the next 3-5 years playing great games while Sony waits for the subscription numbers to balance out.

@ Domination

Your comment needs context, otherwise it’s very misleading. There are not 15 games in the God of War series. There are 2 for the PS2, 2 for the PSP, 2 for the PS3, 1 for the PS4, and 1 for the PS5. That’s 8 entries in the series across 5 platforms. If you want to throw in the phone game from 2007 and Facebook game, fine, that makes 10 games in the series. There have been 4 compilation titles and 1 remaster, but saying those are additions to the series is mislea...

Microsoft acquired Zenimax in March 2021, Deathloop came out September 2021. I’m not sure how you measure time, but that is not over a year. If not for the pandemic, the game would have been released before the acquisition. Microsoft may own Bethesda now, but it’s likely they had zero input into the development of the actual game. Therefore, they deserve zero credit for its reception. They do deserve credit for honoring the exclusivity agreement, as I am sure they...

That’s only a point difference, hardly a disparity.

@therealtedcruz

Wouldn’t the recent patch suggest there were already bugs and issues prior (otherwise there’s no need for said patch), making it possible to have addressed those in reviews, where the issues did exist?

@ darkstudios

Do you realize Steam is the storefront, not the publisher/developer of 99.99999999….% of the games they offer. That’s like saying GameStop has tons of IPs, sound dumb right? Please choose the following option that best describes you:

A) You don’t think before you speak
B) You’re a troll
C) Both A and B

There is a step-by-step tutorial video, was about 3:30 minutes long, that included a bunch of talking, unboxing an SSD, and also installing a heatsink on a different SSD that didn't have one preinstalled. The actual process was about 2 minutes. Kudos to you for taking a 2 minute procedure and dragging it out for an additional 8 minutes.

@ Rookie

If you are such a diehard PS fan then you'd have already played the game when it was released over 3 years ago. If that's the case then why does it bother you that the game is being released on PC, over 3 years after launch and when the console generation has already ended.

Obvious troll.

That doesn't sound so simple when you put it like that. How many people carry Bluetooth controllers on them when they are out and about to game on their cell phones?

Also, remote play is a thing.

That’s funny, a quick look at the Gamepass library on Microsoft’s site would conclude that 95% of the 409 games available are nothing to write home about either. Mostly fodder and old games, very very very lightly sprinkled with a few gems. Let’s be honest, the only reason people would play most of the games on Gamepass is because they are already subscribed (most subscribers are still probably within their promo period where they stocked up on years of GP Ultimate for pennies on the dollar)...

@zeldafan64

Graphics, audio, multiplayer, pretty much anything technical. It’s not meant to be a knock on Switch games, they are what they are. I just feel there is too large a disparity in many areas (quantifiable areas, not subjective/ anecdotal ones) to compare Nintendo games with PS/XB games. I don’t think they occupy the same space.

According to this chart Nintendo doesn't have a legacy console. They even lump in the 3DS with the PS4/XB1. I think it's time to ask ourselves if, at this point, Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft should be considered competition for the same market. I'd consider the Switch to be in the handheld market. One could argue Switch games are closer to mobile games than they are to current gen games (especially as the generation progresses).

@ zeek

The Wii was not Nintendo’s 7th console, it was their 5th (unless you count their dedicated game tv thing from the 70’s, then it would be their 6th).

@ Neonridr

This current generation is considered the 9th gen of consoles, which are separated based on leaps of technology (I.e. 8 bit, 16 bit, 32 bit, etc.). When you look at the console generation charts, both the Wii U and Switch are classified within the 8th generation of consol...

Where can I buy Demons Souls for the PS4? I was under the impression it was a remake that’s “not cross gen!”.

Forgive me if I don’t take your word on what an underpowered machine is, when you are bragging about VRR and do not know what it does. *hint* It’s in the name, variable refresh rate.

Last gen games are not fully optimized for next gen consoles, they just use the extra compute power to boost certain things. But there are no APIs that take full advantage of the SSDs or other next gen features within the hardware. That’s why XSX edges out PS5 ...
