Wouldn’t the word “mainly” in context actually say that part of it is due to first parties? 🤔

A little surprising seeing as the PS4 version on the PlayStation Store is $59.99

$59.99 on Steam as well.

Because it shows a statistic that less than two percent of the PS3 and PS4 player base combined purchased Beyond Two Souls in almost five years?

It effectively shows that on average since launch Beyond Two Souls moved 622,222 units per year. That’s also being generous as that’s rounding to a 4.5 year period on the market when in actuality it’s closer to 4.75. 51,852 units per month.

In what realm is that “pretty damn good”? The budget for the game was als...

How about Call of Duty which moves 10 million+ every year?

Assassin’s Creed yearly moves more. A good chunk within the first week. 1.5 million copies of Assassin’s Creed Origins were sold during the launch week.

Gears of War 4 moved 3.36 million since it launched.

Minecraft moves over 144 million copies across all platforms. Roughly 94 million have been moved since Microsoft purchased Minecraft.

Sea of Thieves managed...

Sony released the Vita then dropped their own support for games on the system. The Vita has been staying alive or on life support due to third parties, not Sony.

In this instance Sony didn’t support Vita/PlayStation TV for much of the lifespan of either. At this point it’s left as a “me too” device for Remote Play.

The One X is already competitive with the Pro.

Sony said one in ten PS4s sold since the launch of the PS4 Pro have been the Pro model.

Information says that roughly one out of every eight Xbox Ones consist of the One X model.

If that’s the truth the One X actually outsells the PS4 Pro. There’s actually a large possibility that there’s more Xbox One Xs out there versus PS4 Pro.

I’d also point out that a price drop seem...

Minecraft DLC on the PlayStation Store; 190 matches

So people on PlayStation are already buying and have been “able to pay MS for game related micro transactions (ex. Skins) and then use(using) them on Sony’s PlayStation network.”

And not just skins. The whole game. Two PlayStation platforms will officially lose su...

“Sony just doesn’t want people to be able to pay MS for game related micro transactions (ex. Skins) and then use them on Sony’s PlayStation network. It’s pretty legitimate.”

“Also, Minecraft is a Microsoft property, so of course they get paid for their own game, that has nothing to do with what’s being said here.”

Uh... What? So Minecraft is a Microsoft owned IP that’s available on PlayStation platforms. Minecraft provides micro transactions on all platfo...

Nice. 25 titles for one show. That’s quite a bit of content for Microsoft and the Microsoft ecosystem.

@Italiano1234567:
Xbox One: 35 million consoles worldwide
Nintendo Switch: 18 million
Mobile: Hundreds of millions
PC: Hundreds of millions

That’s 53 million with just the two consoles. Couple in the hundreds of millions of mobile and PC owners.

More people than PS4, PS3, and Vita combined as even all three combined would be around 170 million. PC and mobile alone spank that.

I like that you leave out that Sony pushes its own micro transactions along with the fact that Minecraft is present on PS4, PS3, and Vita. With micro transactions for skins and such where profit goes to Microsoft.

160 million PlayStation consoles between the two. 2.8 million copies sold between both player bases, was “free” via PlayStation Plus, and is available on PlayStation Now.

One in every fifty seven that own a PlayStation 3 or 4 got a copy, assuming no double dipping. Though there’s individuals here stating they bought or got both so one in fifty seven is being generous.

The game has also had close to five years on the market.

1) It is an issue. A long unaddressed one at that. As stated, even by me, a problem that’s existed for some time.

2) People complained about it during the PS3 days as well for it to go unaddressed even still

3) I’ve ran my card for less than a dollar on NUMEROUS occasions and never had an issue. I like taking advantage of free or cheap rentals from Redbox which CONTANTLY come out to less than one dollar. I’ve been able to pay for things via Xbox Live for ...

Didn’t read the full story did you.

“Therefore, when I do purchase Playstation games digitally I just do it on Amazon so that I don’t have to beef up my wallet in five dollar increments. So, the question stands; did I bite the bullet, add the $5 and purchase Until Dawn? No. No, I did not. I would have, but I knew that if I did, I’d have $4.50 sitting in my wallet for months to come and I didn’t want to yet again be prompted to add $5 to my wallet.”

Mom & pop shops can charge for the exact amount and even below a dollar. Surely Sony can too. Their competitors do.

“530D AGO”

And yet the problem is still unaddressed. As it was since the PS3 days of PSN as well.

“Realms are now available on Nintendo Switch”
Good news for Switch players. Realms brings your world to any platform and at any time.

“The update is available now on the Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, Windows 10, mobile and VR. The update however is not available on the Java Edition of the game yet, but Mojang says that it is on it’s way.” Bad news for PlayStation players who will have to wait.

PS: I’d pull the PS4 tag as the update isn’t live on Pla...

Save some time.

Rename Eevee as Sakura to evolve into Psychic-type Espeon
Rename Eevee as Tamao to evolve into Dark-type Umbreon
Rename Eevee as Rainer to evolve into water type Vaporeon
Rename Eevee as Sparky to evolve into lightning type Jolteon
Rename Eevee as Pyro to evolve into fire type Flareon

Rename, get enough candies, evolve, and repeat.

Nice job removing context.

“The fact Nintendo would choose to spend the best part of half an hour of a presentation on one game, which let’s face it to even the most ardent super-fan is not a game that NEEDS much explaining. The gameplay formula has remained largely unchanged since it’s inception on the N64. There’s only so much you can say about a 2D brawler where you try and knock people off the screen to win, right?”
