Sony hate thread

Is there a single successful/well-liked game starring a black woman? Surely there is, but I can’t think of it.
Alyx from Half-Life? But she's blasian.
I see people on /v/ jizz their pants over this game
It's actually pretty good if you can get past the coomer part, its like a metroidvania resident evil tomb raider, with some dark souls difficulty, just to check off all the buzzwords.
 
You're right, but Sony (unfortunately) basically owns anime distribution (at least for streaming) in the West. They might not buy them, but I could see them making a deal - games exclusivity for anime access.
Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE) is a separate branch that does its things just like how Sony Music Entertainment Japan (SME or SMEJ, which owns Aniplex) has no qualms to make games for the Nintendo Switch (i.e. Demon Slayer and anything Nasu), even if both are affiliated to Sony itself.

Making licensed anime games that do not include Switch among platforms, in this day and age, is pretty much a suicidal attempt in the JP market anyway. The latest Sword Art Online (published by Bamco) paid the price as another example of a game suffering alongside with the collapse of the PS ecosystem.
Famitsu Sales: Week 41, 2023 (Oct 02 - Oct 08 ) :
05./00. [PS5] Sword Art Online: Last Recollection # <RPG> (Bandai Namco Entertainment) {2023.10.05} (¥7.700) - 11.740 / NEW <40-60%>
06./00. [PS4] Sword Art Online: Last Recollection # <RPG> (Bandai Namco Entertainment) {2023.10.05} (¥7.700) - 8.554 / NEW <40-60%>
By comparison previous SAO games on launch week performed like this:
Sword Art Online: Infinity Moment- 2013年3月14日 (PSP) - 200,845
Sword Art Online: Hollow Fragment - 2014年4月24日 (VITA) - 241,377
Sword Art Online: Lost Song - 2015年11月19日 (VITA) - 192,047 / (PS3) - 73,331
Sword Art Online: Hollow Realization - 2016年10月27日 (VITA) - 133,108 / (PS4) - 98,644
Sword Art Online: Fatal Bullet - 2018年2月8日 (PS4) - 117,370
Sword Art Online: Alicization Lycoris - 2020年07月9日 (PS4) - 73,331
And I don't think digital has grown well enough these days to compensate for this huge decline in physical sales.

Switch is good too. Vita was also a mixed bag, it didn't have a lot of great games but the great ones it did have were really good, like Gravity Rush.
Vita was the definition of "wasted potential". Unless you lived in Japan to obtain certain exclusive accessories (like the ability to transfer PSP games on your PSN account, the 64GB memory card, etc.) and check out the vast amount of Vita games there, it was a rather underwhelming system otherwise for other markets. And I say this as someone who liked the Vita very much.

Glad it had an active homebrew community, and that the Switch took the mantle as its spiritual successor (and the "old Playstation" spirit too).
 
The Walking Dead game by Telltale.
Assassins Creed 3: Liberation
The Walking Dead's probably the best representation of black people in games, because it doesn't shove everyone's races down your throat, and the game would have worked equally well if Lee and Clementine were any other race.

Two great characters in a hero shot:

Something that feels tailor-made to produce brand new racists:

Bullshit.

PC gamers complain about games getting designed for consoles all the time because it "dumbs down" or "gimps" the pc version.

The only thing PC gamers have ever (rightfully) complained about are poorly optimized ports of console games and performance crippling DRM (aka, "you will own nothing and be happy").

I'm primarily a console gamer, and even *I* recognize your bullshit. I'd be primarily gaming on PC nowadays except I don't have the added funds for it. Maybe next year, but I'm bound and determined. This will be the last generation I ever buy a console again.
 
In the current year of our Lord, why hasn't KikeSony realized that gamers like backwards compatibility? New buyers would be introduced to generations of games they missed out without buying another console. As for me, my PS3 died in 2021 and I have a WHOLE library of games I want to replay. Since Sony are a bunch of retards, I have to choose either buying between a used PS3 with PS2 backwards comp, go for the PS5 slim or hope and pray the PS6 will be backwards comp.
You could also just buy a PS5 and play PS3 games on that...but the "backwards compatibility" feature for PS3 games is locked behind a paywall that costs $160/yr...and it's streaming only so you need good internet because you can't download the games...and the streaming only supports a list of selected games... yeah nevermind.
 
For once, can I have a game where I don't have to worry about meta, bugs, forced diversity, zoophila, or whatever crazed trend people are into?
There are plenty of games like that, you’re just not looking-
Never mind you’re fucked. Or just don’t let other people ruin your enjoyment of something and you’ll be fine.
 
That's it, chimpout more PC users.

1) You whine and cry when you don't get something you want.

2) You act like you are entitled to every game because "pee cee is the superior platform" and sit there and shout "gib me dem games"

3) You chimp out every time PC games are released on console and demand your market be segregated.

4) You chimp out every time a console game doesn't get released on PC.

You are, literally, the niggers of gaming. You sure fucking act like them.

I wouldn't be surprised if your fire alarm chirps while you're playing games or that you eat bowls of corn starch while playing games.
This post alone is literally, to a T, a consolefag moment, as presented in this thread:

I was going to add, at the rate the ps5 hellscape is developing at the moment, Bandai/Namco would be better off resurrecting the Playdia.
It was intended for a young audience and, like many consoles of the era (e.g. the LaserActive and the 3DO Interactive Multiplayer), was marketed more as a multimedia home entertainment system than as a dedicated gaming console with anime quiz software and edutainment making up most of the game library.

In the current year, Sony give absolutely zero shits what gamers want. Playstation is exclusively for people who like sports or films and people who just play call of duty/fortnite/apex.
You want a wide range of varied games of all sorts of playstyles and aesthetics? Fuck you, you play "realistic" third person action adventure 6048058 or you get the fuck out.

And I don't think digital has grown well enough these days to compensate for this huge decline in physical sales.
Digital sales has been a major cope for the horrifically bad software sales for PS5, they havent increased that much and they're especially low for RPGs

Quoted for truth

Neither Sony nor Microsoft give a fuck about what games want. They're chasing that lowest common denominator to the bottom of the barrel but, maybe optimistically, I think we're seeing the start of casual/mainstream/normie fatigue in games. Scrolling endlessly on tiktok is giving them more dopamine, quicker, cheaper than gaming can.

The crash is finally upon us brethren!
