EDIT: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/400-current-events/79873913 https://i.imgur.com/fzbpym3.jpg How does this get anyone excited? Eventually PS5 games. They lost right there. Knowing Sony this tells me theyre not gonna put games on this service day 1. Its gonna be games that are old. Microsoft is putting games on there day 1 and expanding every month.

At least from what I remember Spider-Man Miles Morales Spider-Man 2 Guardians of the Galaxy Avengers Gotham Knight All out in a two year span. Its just overdone to me. Every superhero doesnt need their own game. The timing also makes no sense to me as Wolverine hasnt had a movie in years and the MCU isnt at its peak like during Infinity War years. I dont get why devs want to spend all this time developing single player games that wont move consoles. Multiplayer games have much more replayability and generate money through microtransactions. They also just move consoles more. Theres also a much bigger audience to be reached versus fans of a specific hero in a specific universe. Im a Wolverine fan and theres absolutely no way Ill play the game if it isnt on Game Pass. --- Pimpin aint easy Chiefs/Royals/Lakers 2015/2016 champs baby <cite>MrDrMan posted [p:962246683] in Sony is bu...

Pete [Parsons, CEO] and I have spoken about many things over recent months, and this was one of the first, and actually easiest and most straightforward, conclusions we reached together. Everybody wants the extremely large Destiny 2 community, whatever platform they're on, to be able to continue to enjoy their Destiny 2 experiences. And that approach will apply to future Bungie releases. That is unequivocal. He continues: "Pete and I have spent a lot of time talking, and we were struck by how similarly we see the world. And just how complementary our two organisations are. We're like two pieces of jigsaw that can slot together. They make massive, immersive games that have no end. Whereas PlayStation's strength, as you know, is in the single-player, narrative-rich, stories. Our studios make those games and they are some of the best games you'll find anywhere. "I've been on record talking about increasing the size of the PlayStation community, and expanding beyond our historic console heartland. This can take many forms. And definitely one of the main ones is the ability for the wonderful games that we've been making over the past 25 years to be enjoyed in different places and played in different ways. We are starting to go multiplatform, you've seen that. We have an aggressive road map with live services. And the opportunity to work with, and particularly learn from, the brilliant and talented people from Bungie... that is going to considerably accelerate the journey we find ourselves on." "Philosophically, this isn't about pulling things into the PlayStation world. This is about building huge and wonderful new worlds together." Ryan adds: "The way people play games has changed a lot over the last few years. We have created some wonderful properties over the course of the last 25 years, with characters that people love and resonate the world over. Offering the opportunity to enjoy those experiences in a completely different way is something that we are very excited about. I can't go into details today, but we have a really amazing roadmap on how to do that. "I would back us to do [live-service games] ourselves, but when you have the potential to have a partner like Bungie who has been there, done it all before, learned the lessons and have got this wonderful, brilliant team who is there and has the potential to help us... we think we can take something that would have taken a certain number of years, and significantly decrease the time it will take to get it right. This article also confirmed this acquisition was in talks for the last 6 months and has nothing to do with Activision. The gaming industry is a slow beast. Most of these acquisitions aren't even about the PS5 and Xbox Series X. They're looking a decade or two ahead. --- A Fallen Mascot <cite>Punished_Blinx posted [p:962246914] in Sony is bu...
