Data centers are not at all cheap in many ways they're far more expensive and wasteful than making the physical discs and distrubuting them to retail stores. So much for "road to carbon neutral" not that CO2 emissions actually impact the climate anyway. It's all ridiculous.
@isarai
Plenty of non-AAA games are basically indie at this point most of which YOU CANNOT PURCHASE ON DISC.
So I'm lost with your point a bit on that front too.
I do agree mostly and I can't think of the last time a PS game didn't work from the disc day 1. Genuinely not even GT Sport. I did purchase GT7 digitally since its a technically a GaaS game so I can't say it worked day 1 from the disc. If PD actually offlines GT Sport on disc I would rebuy t...

Who the •••• said buying the disc means they OWN THE IP!?
Serious question.

Nintendo shouldn't be getting good will because their HW is poor either... but they do!
If Nintendo had the best HW ever conceived a console about 50% more powerful on paper than Xbox Series X called simply "Nintendo 8" for $500 and only released Mario Kart 9 for $70 and The Legend of Zelda: Tennis Superstars Origami Saga Tri-Force Edition (comes with a 14 page artbook, a gold colored plastic medallion and a tiny plastic tennis racket) for $120 over the ...
Another moron of a politician who doesn't understand MS does all this too and then sinks its purchased companies laying off literally tens of thousands of staff members in a single day.

"True comparing ps plus premium 19$ with gamepass 7$ is won by miles by gamepass, the only poeple to think ps plus premuim have a great value is new players in the platfrom, if i didnt already finish PS exclsuives i would've bought 2 month of sub and finish the games i want in long play setions"
Pls eNglish m0re okie-ay yeeahs? /s
PS+ Premium (PS+P) is only $17.99 USD/mo (regular price) Game Pass for Consoles and Game Pass for PC is ...
To simplify everything I just wrote even more so that everyone can understand it...
tl;dr: PS+ Premium is 119.99/yr offers 834 games while Game Pass for Consoles and for PC costs the same amount, but gives subscribers 437 games on console, 426 of that catalog are available on PC.
If you stream on Game Pass only 337 of the original 437 gane are available. To stream and play across Xbox and PC you'll pay $14.99/mo which is $60 more per year than 1 whole year of P...

"You speak nothing but truth."
LOL!
From onisama "32 games including inhouse game.... Ps plus is for 24$ and is honestly a bad service for its price..." $24/month? Where the f••• is this guy getting that figure? A year of PS+ is $119.99 which is $9.99/month same as Xbox Game Pass for Console or for PC. Meanwhile Game Pass Ultimate costs $14.99/month for 12 months it's... wait for it... $179.88/year.
Yeah MS...
Exactly, 100%!
The PS+ Collection is free to early adopters & PS kept it around until 6 months after the PS5 system drought finally ended 2½ years after PS5 actually launched with nearly 30 million PS5s out there today there's no reason people should be whinging about the PS+ Collection disappearing.
As far as the 32 games leaving, they're being replaced with 16 new arrivals.
1 Kena: The Bridge of Spirits
2 Doom Eternal
3...
Marvel's Spider-Man is not being de-listed its just leaving PS+ Extra and Premium. If you purchased the game at retail or digitally you can still reinstall or redownload it and play it.
@StarkR3ality
"Not first party titles and not that many you dosser."
Uh... FH3 and FH4, FM6 and 7 and likely numerous others... of course the ones I listed were basically the only ones I ever cared about and they all disappeared. So... you are wrong.
What kind of licensing issues would exist for a game MS made and owns the rights to?
So I think the uproar actually makes sense there and it might have surrounded the fact that MS was clearly lying their arses off!
Meanwhile PS made zero commitment to keep the modern games in the catalog on Extra or Premium forever regardless who owns the right. The reason for that is clear. Eventually literally every game would be free on PS+ X/P which would lose the company money...
To women who are "immune" apparently they don't age.
Horizon: Forbidden West is an action RPG.
FFXVI just shown off in the State of Play today is also an action RPG.
So... we all know you don't know what you're talking about at all.

"I'm pretty sure the WiiU pretty much failed because they made it difficult for third parties to put games on the console"
All the way wrong, couldn't be anymore wrong if you tried. See Wii U had Watch Dogs, NFS and even Batman: Arkham Asylum (or some other Arkham game) and at least one or two CoD games, but it sold less units than PS Vita (which had some version of CoD that was poorly received)...
Nintendo really might be fine without third ...
If that were true, then please explain how Red Faction: Guerrilla Remarstered managed to run with better visuals in a higher resolution at twice the framerate with all the same destruction as on previous HW on the then current generation PS4 and Xbox One when it was re-released?
"Developers got lazy."
I hate to say it, but this reason actually makes the most sense out of everything I've read here.
So many blame increasingly impressive visuals, but they ignore Killzone, Uncharted and The Last of Us on PS3 and PS4 plus the fact that games such as Red Faction: Guerilla was re-released on the supposedly weaker Jaguar-powered now last-gen machines PS4 and Xbox One only to run at twice the framerate at Full HD instead of 720p or be...
Nothing at all weird about this especially since the movie ads focused on the T-Viruses use as some kind of anti-aging serum.
Yeah wondering who we complain to about these ads they degrade battery life on mobile like nothing else and might harm their overall user base on mobile which is likely a growing sector for most websites.
All games that look like trash on Switch... great case you're building though! /s
