@kabrutusdeid I just found this out today since i usually go directly to the game to redownload on my vita and it was empty. I have to use my download list to find it now to redownload.
@CutTheCap4k The cost to print out a game on Blu-ray goes for $1-10 max per game. Digital games are not cheaper day 1 and they are a licensed product vs an owned product. License products are subject to different terms and can be blocked from being accessed.
@CutTheCap4k How many games do we have data for ONLY the game sales at full price. I buy full priced $70-100 games Physical only since I am willing to pay no more than $25 for digital licenses. I can see digital bigger after discount but I don't know many that pay $70-100 day 1 for digital.
@CutTheCap4k F2P games have messed up statistics with dlc purchases. They don't separate full games from dlc items. Insomniac hack proved digital/physical sales are split 50/50 for the actual game. Buy 1 game and then 9 dlc items= 90% digital purchases even if you got the game physical.
@VetteNight@vaughanilla_cos Destiny's problem is because of their engine and how it handles mass data. They have to rotate content because they couldn't have it all. This was revealed years ago when destiny 2 started vaulting content after year 2. They had to change the while intro and ruin the beginning.

@CHaase23@dark1x Its called how to lie with statistics. The insomniac hack revealed PS 1st party games sell 50/50 physical and digital. The statistic manipulation happens when they count all digital items the same. Its doesn't separate dlc items from full games. 1 game or dlc item are the same.
@GoodGameKofi PS raised prices in April 1st. Nintendo caught up later with Switch 2 price increase announcement and Xbox just caught up with their announcement increasing their prices. Why would PS raise again? Do you think companies are in a competition to raise prices for the sake of it?
@aboris2626@Silent_Knight88@Colteastwood Why would Rockstar give away the PC version for free to Xbox PC store players. The want PC players to wait or buy the game again if they already bought the console version. People will double dip easily for this game.
@Ranksaucegod@michellexotter GTA online is included in the single player version but you can purchase GTA online separately if you don't want the single player portion. You cannot just buy the single player portion standalone, it includes online. GTA online originally didn't launch until weeks later.
@JackmoveJohnny@Puertorock77_ PS won't survive with the Steam small hobbyists approach. PS5 is closing in on 100 million and PS6 needs to hit similar numbers. They make money from massive software sales and not the hardware initially. PS5 is $650 but is PS still subsidizing it or moving those funds to PS6?
@XtremistRX@Romudeth Bull Shit chart. Games cost the same retail price on PC. Sales and early discounts are on consoles no different than Steam. PC players buy and play mainly old games while console players buy the new AAA games. PS sub is optional. Has a catalog of games. F2P Games don't need PS+
@Dx3Empire@Romudeth Sony is a Entertainment company that builds hardware to go with its entertainment. Sony music/walman. Sony PS games/hardware. Sony pictures movies/shows and TV's/dvd/Blu-ray players. Sony mobile game/phones. Sony is a complete package handling both hardware and the entertainment.
@Cyllis@LightningJBlack@Nick_Marseil They stopped subsidizing the PS5 so they can do the PS6. PS5 digital was $400 at launch with subsidies. Its now $600 without subsides. PS5 disc was $500 but now is $650. PS has up to $200 to subsidize per PS6 console. I predict PS6 digital at $600-650 and physical at $700-$750.
@MightyKeef Real talk. The $400 I paid, after trading in 2020 ps5 for the Pro5 day 1 was the best decision. People that slept on it are paying for it now.
@EternalDragonX2@vicious696 FSR 4 update on Series consoles will never happen. Xbox players love the fantasy of the tools finally showing up and Xbox Series X just smashing PS5. Power Your Dreams is the best slogan for bots because y'all are never in reality.
@vicious696 Steam Machine PC pricing is not a total reflection of console gaming. PS5 base is just as strong as it and is $600 entry. PS5pro which has 2tb storage also is $900 and blows the doors off it. PS6 will be subsidized to move millions of consoles and not niche like Steam Machine.
@NoxisAstralis@insomniacgames Why force it 1 way or the other when the developers had no problem including the OPTION to turn it into a Teen-rated game for the kids who will want to play as wolverine from the cartoons like they do Spider-Man. Its default is the bloody, brutal, swearing character adults want.
@Colteastwood Xbox turned a single player game into an online game for MAU purposes because they DIDN'T make local co-op SEPARATE from online co-op which requires the MS login. Other games keep local multiplayer as a different mode from online multiplayer. All online multiplayer requires PS+.
@FyLaw95@JMaine518 People were wondering how campaign only Halo qualified for a PS5 port when MS said its only live service games. Maybe MS solution to justification is require people to be online even in single player games. I wonder if Fable will have shenanigans or its only Halo as an outlier.
