I'm almost positive that Sony is gearing up to show what all their studios are working on, and planning for the double effect of showing them off on shiny new hardware in the best light while moving PS5 Pro units due to the impressiveness of the games.
PS5 is already moving good numbers, the Pro will need to show why it's worth buying a new console. Here is hoping we get our socks knocked off when the system and games are revealed....exciting!
Pete, exactly...100% spot on.
The omitted facts of the profit and the decline of hardware sales were being filtered, and I pointed that out, plain and simple. I did that and now being told I'm trolling by posting details of the report. I didn't even blame Sony, or say anything negative about sales or anything, just gave way to facts about the report which is standard practice anytime a report is released.
They have to make this make sense.
"everybody around here knows you."
That says it all, lol.
"You are a notorious Xbox fanboy who defends everything MS does and is always trolling PS articles."
I'm notorious? I didn't know that. Please show me the PS articles I have "trolled".
I would say 99% of my comments are in Xbox articles ...but again show me all the PS articles that I troll.
"Your MAU remark wa...
No, the headline should report YoY hardware decline and profit.
I admit that is objective because it's what I think and doesn't have to be relayed to my liking, but everything else I posted was only the details of the report that wasn't evident in the headline. It's standard practice and is done for almost every report of this type.
Explain to me how posting details of the very report Sony released is me making things negative. I never said sales were bad.
You guys are brimstone and fire, yet no one can disprove the facts, not one of you has done that yet...you know why right? Because you guys are arguing a nothing-burger, and only beefing about the details of the report.
Einhandr,
"That's why at the time of writing you have 16 downvotes and 0 up votes."
And that means what to me? It's the brigade defending against the very official report, and all that posted are arguing some perceived slight against factual numbers and happenings. You should feel silly for arguing against me and not Sony, peep how you jumped down my throat, MS throat, and never refuted the facts from Sony.
"We al...
I agree, I played and enjoyed the game very much.
Paying for death animations was a ridiculous proposition from the start, and was destined to fail.
What the hell, MS has nothing to do with what I said, It's right there in the earning report, Sony reported that, not me, not MS, what is wrong with you people?
I gave reasons why, nothing to do with fan logic, it's just a fact that Sony lowered their forecast and still missed it, which means that people are not buying consoles like they used to, plain and simple.
Were PS5 sales good? Yes!
Did PS5 sales decline? Yes! (this is the meaning ...
I'm not talking about Xbox man, I stated facts that happened and posted facts from their earnings report. No way around it, I even gave reasons why the console sales went down, logical reasons, that had nothing to do with fanboy BS.
I never said Sony's sales were bad, look again please, the fact is hardware is down but the engagement, MAU, and sub-services did well, a good part of the very reason for the revenue and profit is what I was pointing out, why in blue bla...
Ok, man, I'm not arguing with you. I never said sales were bad, I'm pointing out that Sub-services, engagement, and MAU are important barometers.
The gaming market as a whole has faced a difficulty in a changing landscape. I just wanted to let you know that you never addressed that and jumped to something I never said.
I did not say it wasn't., that is some good numbers.
I am mainly pointing out that the other part of the story is the hardware decline YoY, and the positive from Sony own account iis the engagement, MAU and Subscription services.
It's something that a lot of people on here don't consider a viable means of counting success...Sony sure does. Sony is doing really well considering they are not really releasing 1st party games at the moment, and ha...
The hardware sales are down, they missed even the lowered target they set.
They are boasting about MAU and subscription services.
Strange things happening when that is not the headlines, but make it sound rather positive. People just aren't buying the same amount of consoles as they use to...times a charging.
Can't wait!
Gp games,
Cod: 6
Flight Simulator
Towerborne
Age of Mythology: Retold

S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2

Outside of GP
SF Expansion(outside of GP)
and standard monthly releases
3rd party games.
Like them or not, that is a lot for the next few months.
Rumor is Avowed will get delayed to early 2025, not because of any technical issues, but due to STALKER 2 being delayed. The reports are saying it's to space out games, as their GP holiday season is packed already.
I'm not sure, Bungie games have really good shooting mechanics, and they have experience with Sci-fi games.
Also, if the game isn't LS, they can take their time with level design.
lol,
You miss the mark every time and talk in circles. The hypocrisy that you are attempting to integrate into this situation is not relevant, look I'll show you an example.
"Once again my point was quite clear to anyone with a working brain or isn't being purposefully disingenuous."
I like that part though at least it was a bit new and avoided being a broken record. This is the very reason I usually stop responding to...
"What does Sony buying Bungie and laying off staff have to do with Microsoft? Other than MS doing something similar in the past it's completely irrelevant here"
Ok, there you have it, you answered the question, the similarity...competing companies do something similar and this topic is about that similar thing. My comment was to show the difference in reaction to a similar situation by you and the S Brigade when it concerned MS.
"Bringi...
The situation is very similar, with buying a pub and laying off workers, you jumping all over the place, there is an article for what you are talking about .
Again try to have some kind of structure to your arguments, you are all over the place, it makes any debate with you silly, you barely ever touch on any points, you just deflect to something else, or make your no point revolve around me, very squirly.
Hell yeah, 2 dope games!
Roboquest is a really fun game, more people need to try it.
