If the campaign is sticking around, sure, maybe. If not…just release some DLC, or “expansion packs” if those still exist. I think BF4 did content well.
You know your backlog is bad when you pre-ordered the original, never played it, and a remaster is on the way.
Xbox owners, as in console owners, not Game Pass subscribers. Xbox is not ahead in hardware sales. The effort required to put PlayStation games on Xbox hardware is heavier than the expected return, which is influenced by the size of the audience and the number of console sales.
Sony might have very little to gain from this strategy. Microsoft, as the underdog, has everything to gain by bringing their games to PlayStation. A sale for Forza Motorsport on the PlayStation platf...
My PC constantly nags me to buy viagra and escorts. My PS5 Pro has a much more positive influence on my life. It’s like, “awww bro, you picked up a sweet achievement”, “check out this free shit this month”, “get in on these killer sales my dude!”.
Xbox's logo is literally a cross my dude
The disc drive was included with the original console for a small premium over the all digital version. Then Sony made the all digital console the defacto go-to console by dropping a console model, and introducing and pricing a disc drive at a premium that was 3x more costly than previous disc options. Customers are being driven, dragged, or even cornered into going digital, and this article is like, “Digital sales are up! See, no one wants physical.”.
From a business persp...
Not yet sold out in Canada. Was able to grab one, and there still seems to be available stock as well. It’s a different story for the anniversary edition, and the disk drive add-on though. The disk drive is being scalped for 2-3x the price it retails for. However, retailers like Walmart are bundling the disc drives with the Pro (non-anniversary) at regular price, and scalpers are seemingly staying clear. I assume this is because scalpers are not game to take that much of a gamble given the re...
Get rid of the Epic Game Store exclusivity. Sony just opened up the PSVR2 to Steam and dropped a huge sale on the device. They're now hitting a larger audience and product is starting to move once again.
It’s called Kickstarter, since 99% of games are broken upon release and are essentially still in development.
Tipping culture is getting out of hand. I just see this as moving in a direction where employers no longer want to be held accountable for their employee’s salaries or investments.
Why aren’t you showing your appreciation and providing me with a tip for purchasing your game? Did I do something wrong by only dropping $130+ on your Ultimate Edition...
It's all about the hive mind, and I'm no exception to it. We buy each installment pretty much every year, regardless of the next installment being an improvement or not. Sad to say, but it is what it is.
Payday 2 doesn't even deserve that, and you can probably point towards its discounted price given its age for the reason why its current player count sits above Payday 3. Let's forget reviews from critics for a moment and focus on what gamers like you and I think. The 1st game received a rating of 6.5, Payday 2 received a rating of 4, and the last installment received a rating of 3.1. The franchise is trash and always has been. I'm not sure why it receives anything but negative pr...
Last one was garbage too. Felt like I was playing an old school video game with invisible walls/boundaries, 2D assets, and a flat environment you could not interact with.
First bug I came across was downloads toggling between displaying in the Download/Upload sections.
Sony saving its own 69b for a massive acquisition :)
As a long time console gamer that owns all the major consoles, I’ve started to shift more and more of my time to PC simply because there are fewer hurdles to jump.
The PC platform makes it easier to tap into the PlayStation and Xbox ecosystems without console purchases acting as a paywall to access those specific libraries. Sony’s more popular 1st party games usually make it onto PC, albeit with a bit ...
It’s OK. You don’t want your name rolling down the credits for this game. Will be found in the bargain bin shortly.
Both Microsoft and Sony downplaying their position in the market, telling gamers “our brand sucks and our product is trash” while each tries to play the victim over this Activision acquisition.
From a strategic standpoint, it’s obvious why Sony would claim 3rd party games are better than their 1st party exclusives. The UK’s CMA is making efforts to block Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision, claiming Sony will have a difficult time competing if the acquisition is allowed. Sony would be unwise not to downplay the performance of their 1st part games/studios and play along to that claim.
Yeah, that co-op…
That’s because you can’t take advantage of that glitch that gives you 3 years for $1 anymore, which I could see inflating the subscriber base. I for one did not renew after that. Big 1st party games are few and far between. If those can’t push consoles, they won’t push subscribers. GamePass went the way of Netflix with a library of B games. Wasn’t much for me to dabble in while I had it.
Quick folks, we won’t actually do anything about gun violence, but let’s make it seem like we’re working hard to “crack down” on it by gaslighting the video game industry. The equivalent of saying, “I left the house with pants on in the morning, so there’s no way anyone could get pregnant”. What’s one gotta do with the other? There are likely more obvious causes or preventions.
