from a gamer perspective anyway. Financially for Sony.....not so much
Non-Nintendo IP platformers rarely sell well. 3+ million is very good. And Astrobot has probably already quadrupled its budgetDeserves to sell so much more than it has, hopefully sales keep up from here on out
Damn, why even sell a 60GB model at that point if it weren't a measure to mitigate costs on the lower capacity PS3, but actually a further loss of cash.Sony lost $300-$540 on every PS3 sold

Sony loses cash on each PS3 sold
Sony will lose over $300 on each 20GB PS3 sold, "And a further US$ 240 on high-end 60GB unit," according to research.www.theguardian.com

Depends on whether or not you put a tremendous amount of weight in to "first party" titles or not.
Because with the way some people are behaving at the moment, if they were transported back to the PS2 generation then they would be equally as dissapointed.
God you're such a fucking boomer
PS5 > PS4 > PS3 > PS2 > PS1

Someone should tell them it's there worst generation as voted by NeoGaf online polls
You know.....your avatar makes it look like you are about to suck a dick. Just wanted you to know that
The funniest thing was watching the budget estimates balloon almost daily. $150M. Then $200M. Then $400M. Then some saying $500M. Sadly, we never hit $1B.Funny.
Going by Gaf, it almost seemed like Concord was going to bankrupt Sony.
Just a bump in the road.
Anyway, all the doom and gloom seems like a joke and is basically a certain demographic trying to paint a #SonyToo picture.
The last person I told to shut the fuck up got banned
So you are giving mods blow jobs. Got it
Crazy Ken lost the plot.Good god what happened in the PS3 era
Or you're just stuck in the Gaf echo-chamber.Worst PlayStation gets best results... the world isn't fair.
Or just in my own experience.Or you're just stuck in the Gaf echo-chamber.
The Cell (and to a lesser extent, Blu-ray drive) happened. Even at $599 they were making like $200 loss for each console sold. Damned near bankrupted the company at the time.Good god what happened in the PS3 era
Careful there!Good god what happened in the PS3 era
PS3 manufactoring costs was ~800$ and was sold for 600$, so huge losses in hardware and back then online for multiplayer games was free, so they didnt had a free money hack enabled yet.Good god what happened in the PS3 era
Concord's failure is nothing compared to Starfield's failure to become a "quintessential title" and catapult the Xbox series and Game Pass to the promised land by Phillip W. Spencer III. But instead propelled MS to release their games on PS. I don't want to derail the thread, so I won't comment any further on this.Funny.

Videogames companies realized consumers are willing to pay insane amounts of money for the basic.Hmmm what's the excuse for all these obscene price increases and online paywall costs now with corporations making record profits of billions every year?
There's something called inflation: game prices are cheaper to buy than ever while they are more expensive to make than ever. So since can't boost units sold they have to raise prices to compensate it.Hmmm what's the excuse for all these obscene price increases and online paywall costs now with corporations making record profits of billions every year?
