This is just speculation on my part but, I remember when Kojima was first talking about Death Stranding early on he stated that it would be a PS4 and PC game. However now that we know that Kojima is using the Decima Engine which Guerilla created (and owned by Sony), maybe the game is a full PS4 exclusive now? I couldn't imagine Sony letting their tech to be used for anything other than their platform.
November NPD is going to be interesting. Xbox One X was supposed to turn the tide of the console race if I'm not mistaken. Microsoft (and it's fanbase) believe that power matters over everything and that was the reason Xbox One was trailing the PS4. Now that Xbox has the power, if it still fails to out race Sony this holiday then that narrative is now false (like many have tried to explain).
With the $199 PS4 slim and the $349 limited edition PS4 Pro being sold out ...
Gotta be the dumbest comment Ive seen in a while. By your logic the devs shouldn't even patch it further because "hurr durr itz fun dis way!!" . Can someone explain to me why this game is game of the year exactly? Other than "it sold blah blah"? How are the games mechanics? Does the game do anything innovative? Any unique sound design we should notice? Is there a well written narrative or at least an underlying one??? Are the graphics raising the bar for the industry? ...
I know some people dislike cutscene trailers with not gameplay and I understand why but I'm hoping for another teaser of Death Stranding at the Video Game Awards.
Lol you are basically telling them to charge you per hour? Can you not see how that is nonsensical?
You said a 6 hour single player game should be no more than $30, then what about games like Persona 5 which is easily over 125 hours minimum. By your logic Atlus could have charged $100 for that game lol.
Atlus proved with Persona 5 that turn based RPG s are still great

There is no "mob mentality". No gamers actually wanted this to happen. However we aren't going to close our eyes and put our fingers in our ears. EA WILL eventually destroy this company barring a miracle.
Buy it used. Thats what i will have to do
Just curious.
You have been on PS4 this whole time for the majority of 3rd party titles right? What about all of the friends you have on PlayStation? You could no longer play with them if that's the case. Have you thought about that?
You can defend a lot of bad things and a lot of bad people in this world but dude....there is NO defense of this fanboy. He is the fanboy of all, king fanboy. Don't ruin your cred for someone so pathetic.
I cant believe you just tried to justify MS 's lack of first party support with the excuse of "I dont have enough time so its ok if they dont try".
I have a PS4 and just this year I bought Gravity Rush 2, Nioh, Horizon Zero Dawn, Nier Automata, Mass Effect Andromeda, Persona 5, Crash, Xcom 2 and finished them all. Now Im 1 chapter away from finishing all 3 Danganronpa games. All this while I work more than 40hrs a week.
Instead of making exc...
They will be flowing in cash if Spider-Man PS4 lives up to its potential. Then use that money to self pub SSO2
I don't think it's just 1 game, I think it's a multi game deal. Spider-Man PS4 's universe is an entirely original one created by Insomniac which tells me that they are thinking beyond just 1 game.
Andromeda flopped because it was average compared to its predecessor not because it was single player. How do you explain multiplayer games that flop and nearly sink a company? (Battleborn, Lawbreakers, Evolve) ect ect.
@moldybread
Yoshida is president of Sony's worldwide studios and has been for an very long time. As long as he is there it doesn't really matter who is at the top because he has a great amount of influence from his stellar track record. The guy replacing House (cant think of his name) will continue to let Shu run Sony's studios as is.
Also, Uncharted is your example of Sony moving towards GaaS? Really??? Multiplayer was added to Uncharted bec...
1) Was there a major PS4 exclusive game that released in September?
2) Are you just going to ignore previous months like Feb, March, June etc etc where PS4 exclusives charted high?
3) Exclusives don't need to outsell multiplats to validate their importance. Exclusives are in fact there to compliment multiplat titles and enhance the platforms library.
@kevnb
So because they changed the fixed camera angle Sony Santa Monica is now copying Naughty Dog......
Are you even listening to yourself?
They'll be fine as long as it sells.
@whiteblue
Lol doesnt it? Could you imagine someone avoiding ALL western games like they are all made the same? Sounds so stupid.
Many Xbox fans stated that the Xbox One X 's ability to play the best multiplatform games would change the perception about the Xbox One and attract more gamers to the Xbox platform. That whole thing about "multiplats are more important than exclusives" was the reasoning of Xbox fans believing in the theory that having better looking multiplats even without no real notable exclusives was enough for Xbox to turn the tide against PlayStation.
As for Microsoft t...
