My current issue with Playstation this gen as whole is they stopped making games that I like.
Other than Team ASOBI they don't have any studio to make the games I want.
Should have bought Knack 2.Yep, and ironically it's their failure to continue to supply those kinds of games which has led them to this point where they are chasing scraps on other platforms to pad out their GAAS and "engagement" metrics.
DS2, GOY, and worse Astrobot and GT7 might be next to other platform or PC.Relax, PS fanboys, its just 4 games.
in DS1 yesIs that song in Death Stranding?
Shitposter confirmedNo one has posted the "There is no reason to be upset" Craig meme?

Hmm where have I heard this before?…Plus, Xbros getting your games is only benefitial for you because that means easy money for PS and it's studios. Everybody wins, except the brand loyalists.
Opening up Xbox will help Microsoft games become more successful which will allow for projects like Alan Wake 2 or even more risky new IP to happen and even allow for a bigger community for games you care about. Is "losing" justification for owning your console not worth having more successful games?
why is it that xbox is dying yet Sony gaf is the one having melt downs and getting bans?
SweetTooth, QLQ, James Sawyer, etc. got permanent bans and others are getting temp bans
if Sony is doing so well why is Sony gaf losing their mind
Lol remember when that GHG guy was trying to flame you, for being an Xbox fanboy or someshit. Then today he had a total meltdown over.....helldivers 2 coming to Xbox. I love this place.why is it that xbox is dying yet Sony gaf is the one having melt downs and getting bans?

The first one, yeah. In the very beginning (at least). Have you started it? Even if you're playing on PC, DualSense is worth it, and worth the hassle of having it corded. Few games outside Sony's own studios use the haptics/adaptive triggers that well.Is that song in Death Stranding?

Sure, he's not a "fanboy". Just a very combative fan, lolI get what you are saying, butGHG calling out Sony for being stupid is the opposite of being a "fanboy", isn't it?
I played some last week and remembered that song. Planning on jumping back in at some point. So many games right now.
Sure, he's not a "fanboy". Just a very combative fan, lol
lol I have that
that's my bad, Little Chicken is somewhat familiar but the other two I don't recognize. I'm guessing the xbox crowd is easier to miss because xbox has had few wins lately that people can really show off or talk about. it seems like much of that crowd has gotten quiet while they wait to see what xbox does next (which based on the Quest branding, doesn't look that optimistic)You are overlooking some prominent Xbox GAFers on that list my man. Little Chicken, IndigoSociety, eastwood_333. Warriors are warriors.
the funny part is that he seems to have taken a stance closer to what I was arguing when he was getting into it with meLol remember when that GHG guy was trying to flame you, for being an Xbox fanboy or someshit.

Should have bought Knack 2.

Glad I did, great co-op platformer.

I expect xbox meltdowns because I mean just look at the news coming out on xbox. The high amount of Sony meltdowns is a bit more surprising to me. I didn't think things were as dire yet for Sony.
I swear I'm not kidding, Knack 2 is a good game. God bless Japan Studio!
most of the bans don't link to the post so it is a tad difficult for me to decipher what exactly happened. I just know they were butting heads on console stuff right around when the bans happen so I assumed it was console warring.Outside of guys like @Sweet Tooth, I'd say some of those bans were more about people being dicks to other people. If I had the power to unban any of them, I'd unban a fanboy before I unban an asshole
Pay attention to the bootlickers in this thread. Who offer no counter no real conversation this is who are ok with this and a slow spiral of admission to sony own faults. Pay attention. Its the same as with super xbox fans. And it all starts as one thing and leads to another.
"Sony this sony that" worried about their bottom line and how they will be around a long time, but what about the console fan/user and how these moves affects them? But your point taken and noted, corpo stanThis is an elaborate shit post. There is no way you're being serious.
If it is real, please get help. It's just a games console. It's not the end of the world. To make you feel better, unlike Microsoft, Sony consoles are selling really well. Sony will be around for a long time.
GHG is not a fanboy specifically because he has the intellectual honesty not to gaslight himself about Sony's stupid decisions.Lol remember when that GHG guy was trying to flame you, for being an Xbox fanboy or someshit. Then today he had a total meltdown over.....helldivers 2 coming to Xbox. I love this place.
I like most Japan Studio's games but Knack wasn't all that great and I have no interest in co-op play.I swear I'm not kidding, Knack 2 is a good game. God bless Japan Studio!
The actual truth is Xbox fans have pretty much nothing to worry about for the forseeable future. They're going to stick with all Xbox games, Gamepass, and soon have options for virtually everything else available through PC stores while maintaining BC with their library. There's really no downside except some more expensive hardware. The shock of fully giving up on exclusives occurred 16 months ago.I expect xbox meltdowns because I mean just look at the news coming out on xbox. The high amount of Sony meltdowns is a bit more surprising to me. I didn't think things were as dire yet for Sony.
So a person playing a game on another platform is taking away from your user expeirence? How?"Sony this sony that" worried about their bottom line and how they will be around a long time, but what about the console fan/user and how these moves affects them? But your point taken and noted, corpo stan
Thank God for AI:
The main point of the forum post is a critique of PlayStation's current leadership and business strategy, expressing concern that the company is alienating its core fanbase by prioritizing short-term profits and following industry trends, particularly by releasing games on non-PlayStation platforms and pursuing strategies like live-service games. The poster argues that these moves are damaging the brand's long-term value and could lead to the loss of loyal customers, which they see as the beginning of a decline for PlayStation.
Key points and concerns raised in the post:
Overall, the post is a call to action for PlayStation fans to voice their concerns and resist changes they see as harmful, while warning that the current path could lead to the brand's long-term decline. This perspective is echoed in other discussions where fans express frustration over PlayStation's focus on profit, trend-chasing, and a perceived disconnect between leadership and the gaming community1245.
- Leadership Criticism: The author believes PlayStation's leadership is "compromised" and out of touch with the core audience, echoing a broader sentiment found in gaming forums that current executives are more focused on business metrics than on understanding gamers' needs125.
- Trend-Chasing and Westernization: The post criticizes both Western and Japanese leadership for "chasing what the west is doing and trends," suggesting that neither approach is currently serving the PlayStation brand well12.
- Devaluing the Core Fanbase: The author feels PlayStation is "devaluing and belittling their own core fanbase" by expanding to other platforms and shifting focus away from exclusive, innovative titles14.
- Perception and Marketing: The post emphasizes that "perception is everything in marketing," warning that the strategy of releasing PlayStation games on other platforms could cause long-term harm to the brand, despite any short-term financial gains4.
- Voting with Wallet and Habits: The author intends to stop supporting PlayStation's new direction financially and encourages other dedicated fans to speak up or risk being complicit in the brand's decline.
- Historical Parallels and Warnings: There is a warning that PlayStation could repeat mistakes made by competitors (specifically referencing Xbox), and that once the core audience is lost, it's difficult to recover4.

I mean, is the being an asshole related to console allegiance? because isn't that sort of the same thing, just a toxic type of fanboy instead of your typical fanboy?
What is this, Enigma?
In the short term, it does actually reduce the literal value of that console.So a person playing a game on another platform is taking away from your user expeirence? How?
What value? It still plays 3rd party AAA games. Indie, etc You just can't hold "i have a game you dont" over others heads anymore. So your precieved value is gone I guess....In the short term, it does actually reduce the literal value of that console.
In the long term, it means that PlayStation will be less willing and able to even make the kinds of games that are currently being ported. Precisely the same as Microsoft.
Funny how the ease of use and comfy couch claims go by the waysideWhat value? It still plays 3rd party AAA games. Indie, etc You just can't hold "i have a game you dont" over others heads anymore. So your precieved value is gone I guess....
No fiddling with drivers bro!Funny how the ease of use and comfy couch claims go by the wayside
Every timeNo fiddling with drivers bro!
Really makes you think...why is it that xbox is dying yet Sony gaf is the one having melt downs and getting bans?

I'm just struggling the reconcile even an even amount of meltdowns on each side when the negative news, if you go based on this website, seems to heavily weigh in favor of xboxI'll put it this way. I didn't engage very much with Mibu because the guy acted like anyone who didn't agree with him was an idiot. Same with that Schremdrick guy. So yeah....just toxic in general. Point is, there are all kinds on that ban list.
Perplexity
Dying for 25 years and counting!Really makes you think...
But hey Xbox is "dead" right?
