That's why I avoid preordering or day one purchases cause even Randy, the way he talks is dirty.
Pretty much this.
The pushed Sony narrative to GAAS won't have any negative effect on single player game development or they will even help them somehow was the biggest bullshit/lie I have seen recently.
Just this generation alone:
Console sales don't matter anymore.
Exclusive games don't matter.
Game pass is the future of gaming.
Sony must create a day one competitor to Game pass or they won't survive.
Sony may survive this gen but when activision games are exclusive it's over.
Haha see It's okay Phil said it's just 4 games nothing more.
Series X hardware will be 40-50 frames faster than PS5 in all games.
Series S will beat PS5 once devs utilise its advanced features.
Series S will sell best because it's cheapest and has game pass.
Starfield will be the game of the generation.

Blow real hard on the connection part of an NES cartridge to get it to work properly.

This was a big one back then. The majority of their party titles were worse on PS3 during the early years, launch titles were pretty lackluster, and then that first party lineup come 2008-2012 ate whatever Xbox had for breakfast. Instead of trying to keep the momentum of the first few years, Xbox lost its way and decided to commit seppuku with Kinnect bollocks. They've been in the same poor decision making ever since.

So, it wasn't worldwide?
BTW, it was doing worse in Europe as well.
PS3 sales surpass Xbox 360 in Europe, says Sony
At Sony's PlayStation Day event, the company announced that it has sold more PS3 consoles than Microsoft has sold Xbox …

I'm pretty much the exact opposite. 80%+ handheld mode for me. I only play on TV for local multiplayer, or games I REALLY want to enjoy the full glory of the game during its big story beats, like the Xenoblade games (I know they're currently still limited to Switch, but if/when they get Switch 2 upgrades, this comment will become more relevant).

'EA Sports - it's in the game'
Well I played NHL 26 and there was no:
1. Welcome to the Jungle before a face off:
2. Coaches shouting at officials:
3. Fans winding up players in the penalty box
4. Players skating around looking up at the jumbotron chewing their mouthguards at every break in play; and
5. Bill Clement on color commentary…
… so this is bullshit.
The HDR is shit as well - the colors are all off.

It's not how things went. Post-WoW boom in the west was for subscriptions based MMO and many of them either died like WHO or forced to abandon subscription (TESO) or convert to f2p (LOTRO, SWTOR, AOC, DCUO).
Pure f2p MMO was a thing mostly of east and they were practically unaffected by pump&slump
Its not a problem - devs can always put new skins into games. Many games of old are active till today and even WoW earns quite a bit of money on its skin/mounts etc sales
Most of them survived though, the biggest failures would be WHO, Tabula Rassa and Wildstar. All the rest managed to find it's niche

On Nintendo Switch 2, Welcome Tour is a good example... Many people swore they wouldn't pay for that demo... And then they went out like zombies to buy it and show it off. 
.
In other hand...
Idiots... Including Warner Bros and other ignorant people... Who said that video games were a passing fad or only for kids.... Now it's the most important medium than film and music.
P.D. The day will finally come when Warner Bros. will file for bankruptcy... I'm going to celebrate with pizza and wine... A day that won't be long in coming.

That DS will bomb terribly against PSP because of its unorthodox design and low-resolution graphics. Currently, it's the second-best-selling console of all time.
That dual-layer DVD will not provide sufficient space for Xbox 360 games. The vast majority of Xbox 360 games ran perfectly fine from a single disc, although there were some notable exceptions, like the 4-disc Lost Odyssey.
That PlayStation 4 supports 4K Blu-rays. Some guy had a whole thread trying to prove that.

I think the whole "You think it looks good now, but in 10 years you'll think it looks like shit" argument was always dubious, but now it's less true than ever.
There was a period of rapid evolution in game visuals where 10 years took us from Goldeneye to Crysis and I could sort of agree with the sentiment.
But now? 10 years old games like The Witcher 3, MGSV, Arkham Knight, etc all still look great to me. Specially if you use modern hardware to run them at higher resolutions and smooth framerates.

Not really as much gamers but developers (including Valve) pushed for a bit:
The future of gaming is episodic content! We can definitely create a development pipeline where new content is delivered on a regular, sustainable basis. Trust us, buy all 5 episodes up front, they'll be delivered on time!

Warriors gonna warrior. The reviews all speak for themselves.
Honestly, I really like this idea in theory. The Telltale Walking Dead games were fantastic. I think that it only makes sense in certain scenarios though. Like Point and Click adventure games are generally easier to make than some big AAA content I'd assume so I'd think these would be reasonable for deadlines.
I'd also think that something like Spiderman or whatever where you've already got the entire city out there, it should be easy to drop some episodic DLC into that when you've already got the full game out there and made. A few hours of content here and there like a few comic books worth of story at a time. I'm probably underestimating how easy this would be though.

This is half correct…
This is incorrect. Maybe you think that there were not that many MMOs in existence or maybe you're vastly underestimating the amount of "15 seconds of fame" flash in the pan MMOs that actually existed back then, most of them from NCSoft, Nexon, and Perfect World Entertainment amongst others.
The MMO graveyard is much, much, much larger than the games today that are currently on life support. It's worth a look if you haven't checked it out. I guarantee there will be tons of games you have never heard of.
