They should just stop trying so hard to chase the PC crowd because that only turned their consoles into dumbed down PC's. They should instead strive to be Nintendo with up-to-date tech, which was pretty much the OG Playstation's premise, hence their success

Snoy's not had any games for a good 15 years now, and even they finally realized that appealing to the hardcore Snoy tribalists does not generate enough money. Which anyone with half the brains would've realized already decades ago.
Consoles in general became totally obsolete by the time 2010s rolled and multiplat became the default AAA shit.
i want infamous ports to pc
>Consoles in general became totally obsolete by the time 2010s rolled and multiplat became the default AAA shit
Other way around. This made PCs obsolete, not consoles.
You need to understand most of their decisions are based on shareholder opinions. They don’t care about PlayStation or gamers just returns on investment.
PlayStation fans aren't enough to satisfy Sony's needs
is this the natural, inevitable outcome of manufacturing higher-end consoles? will Nintendo start facing the same problems in 2 generations?
Nintendo will find a way to have Gen 8 level systems for the next 30 years
>Nintendo
>higher end consoles
nintendo will become 3rd party on the app store
Nintendo games sell like 30 millions each. Never go down in price. Their hardware never goes down in price either. They are in a unique position in which catering to other systems, like selling their games on PC, would only serve to cheapen the brand and hurt their sales.

Nah your way will get in the way of their sales

So sue fans, send lawyers to break up independent tournaments, send lawyers to ruin a fan project of nine years because it includes your mascot?
One of the best things their president can do is shut down their legal department. Lawyers saved Nintendo, but allowing them free reign is killing the company.
No, send Cease and Desist to Ganker for posting leaked TLoU2 videos lmao
They can't do that. PS brand is built on movie games and "striving to be like Nintendo" would alienate the moviegame audience they've built over the last 15 years
People are growing tired of Sony's safe formulaic movie games
I think Spiderman 2 will massively underperform and it will look as outdated as Gears 4 and Halo Infinite did. Shallow as a puddle games are not going to fly anymore after BG3, Starfield and AC6.
They should have never gotten rid of Japan Studio, they killed the only diversity they had going for them. GAAS isn't going to save them either.
It's just a stupid moronic company. Bring out your fricking Bloodborne remaster already or frick off.
yes all those great japan studio games like uhhhh.... the last guardian (moviegame)
* Legend of Dragoon
* Ape Escape
* Ico
* Shadow Of The Colossus
* Forbidden Siren
* Tokyo Jungle
* Afrika
* Demon's Souls
* Puppeteer
* Bloodborne
* Gravity Rush
They were the only Sony studio with any semblance of quality or innovation. Any Japan Studio game was more innovative than a thousand western indieslop games.
Ico has been cloned tenthousand times by unoriginal hack western indiedevs the world over.
You have Japan Studios to thank for providing the bluepoint that 95% of western indieslop devs rely on.
To bad snoy don't buy japan studio games
lol most of these games sold well
That why the studio is gone
And I bet you own none of them.
Legend of Dragoon did terrible in Japan at launch as did all the others. Sony’s highest selling first party game in Japan of all time is Ghost of Tsushima.
good post. was really hoping people would stop pretending that no one cared about Japan Studio after the Patapon spiritual successor hit like 6x its target budget in the span of a single day
suppose this is Ganker though so we need to pretend that no one played or was aware of infamously obscure hidden gems like Shadow of the Colossus or Demon's Souls, or else that they ackchyually had nothing to do with games which they "only" produced
> The Last Guardian (moviegame)
Brainlet take. It's an ambitious game, a 3D platformer/adventure game with your main npc being completely driven by AI, and needing to cooperate with him to progress through the game.
Let me know any other game that did the kind of advanced shit last Guardian did. Fur animation, locomotion of the creature, interactivity with the creature, etc. Its AI was far from perfect and a lot could be improved but it was daring, innovative and took risks, which is more than can be said for 99% of western indieslop.
And it also happens to look better than 99% of UE4-produced western indieslop too.
Sony needs to go out and buy third party studios soon. Tencent and Microsoft is gobbling them up and soon all of the third party games will disappear from PlayStation.
Sony already lost all the Bethesda games except their MMO or legacy games. Now they will also lose all Activision/Blizzard games except COD (for now).
Let’s all be honest, if the third party games disappear from PlayStation, no one will buy one.
They aren’t Nintendo, their first party can’t carry them
You have no idea what led to Playstation's success, clearly and neither does modern Playstation
What led to Sony success with PlayStation is their partnership with third party studios.
PS1 did well because of MGS, FF, sports games, and crash/Spyro. Only first party game that sold well for Sony was GT. The rest did okay at best.
PS3 gotten away from it and it hurt them badly.
Playstation's success was third parties. Nintendo's success was and still is first parties.
That's the important distinction.
Lol Jim Ryan doesn't care about exclusivity, PC is the future for Sony.
IF that's so why are all the PC ports shit and why is Demon's Souls and Ghost of Tsushima not out yet?
Games take time to port over to PC. Also, the only crappy port so far is TLOU which is getting fixed.
>They should instead strive to be Nintendo
anon, they were dumb enough to relocate to san francisco and embrace woke. they lack any such talent capable of coming close
He thinks snoy buy exclusive game
You understand this industry, do you?
The problem was letting an american design the PS4 and essentially turn it into an Xbox. From there on in, there’s just no point in keeping games in the consoles, as they can milk older games as if they were new by selling the PC versions. It isn’t really a bad strategy, and honestly they only port the slop anyway, call me when they actually start porting the Japan Studio stuff and their older Japanese back catalog.
actual sony fan here
iam getting tired of all the open world slop they released and plan to release in the future
even the ones i liked somewhat were still incredibly shallow and boring and i wouldnt have played them if they werent part of my psn extra sub
i want more linear games with great story and actual gameplay instead of doing ubisoft openslop shit pls more good games like last of us or uncharted 2
returnal and ratchet and clank were definitly a step in the right direction but those didnt sell at all and it makes me fearful that sony exclusives are gonna be nothing more than slightly polished ubishart games
i miss actual level design, proper flow and enemy placement so much...but normies love their openworld shit
